When I say that my wish is for you to be happy, I mean it. Maybe I’ll reek a little of embarrassed envy & insecure spite. I can’t help that. But all the nice bits of me truly want you to be happy. I’ll figure out how to toss out the coils that have intertwine us in the past. We both have diverging paths now. Soon, it will be a skein of spider silk that links us and this skein, a conduit for dewdrops of good will & kind thoughts, will be sufficient.

You said
February 14, 2008
That day, you glanced in my direction and said simply, “I’ve thought about it and decided that I would take care of you till we both are old. I’ll always have a place for you.”
I knew my response that day was muted, perhaps even wary.
But I’ve mulled over your deeds and words and I can appreciate the warmth of your intentions. And I’m pretty amazed that you’ve been this generous and this tolerant with me even though I’ve been the skittish colt. In fact, I think I’m starting to get used to being treated this well and warming up to the privileged of being the more loved one. (man… I so wanna roflol now…^^)
So, happy v-day dear! I hope you’ll like your pressie!
And Happy Valentine’s Day to all you eyeballers too! ^^

Quick news flash -
The audience responded to Ban’s brief statement with scattered applause, and the secretary-general responded saying: “Thank you for your solidarity.”
Rebel soldiers shot and critically wounded Ramos-Horta and opened fire on Prime Minister Xanana Gusmao, who was not hurt, in a failed coup attempt early Monday in the tiny Pacific nation that gained independence from Indonesia in 2002. A top rebel leader was killed during one of the attacks.
Ramos-Horta was injured in the stomach and chest and flown to a hospital in Australia under sedation where a medical official said doctors were hopeful he would make a “very good recovery.”
At the start of his speech, Ban said, “Allow me to begin by adding my voice to all who pray for the full and speedy recovery of East Timor’s President, Mr. Jose Ramos-Horta, after the brutal and unspeakable attack he suffered yesterday.”
U.N. spokeswoman Michele Montas said in an earlier statement that Ban “calls on the Timorese people to remain calm and refrain from all violent acts.”
Montas said U.N. police in East Timor are “on a high state of alert” and are coordinating with the International Security Forces and Timorese authorities. U.N. envoy Atul Khare left the United States immediately after receiving news of the attack and is returning to East Timor, she said.
East Timor, a former Portuguese colony, gained independence in 2002 after voting to break free from more than two decades of brutal Indonesian occupation in a U.N.-sponsored ballot.
R.I.P Tommy the Terrapin
February 1, 2008
Dear All,
I wish to announce the demise of our office terrapin Tommy.
He crawled into our lives on 28 Jan 2008 and brought the sunshine with him as we had to open up the office windows for him to bask in the sun.
He was found floating in the tank with his head tucked into his shell this morning. No amount of shaking, tapping or coaxing would revive him. He was wrapped with tissue and laid to rest at the grass patch just outside our centre.
Rest in peace, Tommy. You are loved and missed.
p.s. Sorry for all the turtle soup jokes buddy. T.T
