[[butterfly - 23.04.05]]
arranged with nikki and gang for a movie.
it was for 18th Singapore Intl Arts Festival.
the title was 'butterfly'
===
Flavia is a thirty-year old teacher, married with a son who suddenly confronts her past desires and history when she falls in love with a woman she casually meets at a supermarket. Instead of restraining herself, Flavia surrenders to this unanticipated connection and in it, finds a release for her sexual identity. It also allows her to recollect her days as a student in the 1980s, a period of tense political riots, when she experienced her first such encounter. Yan Yan Mak’s (Brother, SIFF 2002) Butterfly is also a tale about another love relationship between two women in contemporary Hong Kong who struggle against social prejudice to come out and embrace their identities in public space. Starring Josie Ho and Isabel Chan.
===
when i arrived at the cinema @ shaw hse.
i was nearly freaked out.
it was like a les gathering.
lolx.
as it was actually a les show,
most of the community came to support d show.
the first time tt singapore allows such shows.
by chance, we bumped into jeannette,
who coincidentally was watchin this movie too, alone.
well, les world is small, i must admit.
the movie portrays d emotional turmoils,
and searchin for true self.
well, we went to C.A.N cafe after d movie for a chill out session.
afterwhich, nikki sent me hm to drive my car.
we went to elias mall for dinner,
winnie and peiling joined us shortly after.
after tt, we proceeded to fisherman v for another chill out session.
jaq and liping joined us shortly too.
a walk ard the beach brgs back fond memories.
so many things we reflected.
we realised tt in a les life,
all we are looking for is a life partner,
one whom u can spend the rest of ur life with.
but to find someone,
how difficult or eZ can tt be?
i seeked no answer.
we left for changi v.
to visit some 'bapoks'
and had some prata - which suxs.
finally, we left @ 0400hrs.
got hm @0500hrs.
//tryin to be as discreet as possible.. lolx

[[7 frens alliance - 16.04.05]]
Arranged to meetup,
initially with jeannette to pass her back her book,
plus cat and nikki.
And to think tt all along,
I tht i was holdin on to 'memoirs of a geisha',
till jeannette pointed out tt it was 'fallen leaves'.
Kinda shocked.
Does it meant tt i was nt observant of the things ard me?
All along i tht..
And assume..
What a pleasant surprise when I reached there.
Sat on the wooden bench were 3 of the 7 frens.
Cat, Jo and Willyn were there too.
Nikki had nt reached, but Eve-Line was on d way too.
Finally, the 7 frens alliance.
I find it amazin tt more than often,
if we arranged in advance,
there will be alot of ppl who cant mk it.
Willyn suggested gg to sentosa.
Off we went.
We went to siloso beach,
and chatted at a chill out zone.
Indeed, as tired as everyone can be.
The spirit was uplifting.
Updates was on the list.
There were some past being brought to the future.
I realised.
When one grows up,
there are things tt we cant avoid.
The feelins become complicated.
Not as simple as we know.
The truth still hurts.
No matter when it is told.
Even when a r/s has passed on.
The worst feelins come fm being the last to know,
yet u are the main character in d r/s.
We left ard 1plus and head for coffee club @orchard.
We had some drinks and lite bites.
And left ard 3plus.
I felt apprehensive.
I feel happy at the same time.
I always believe in my 7 frens alliance.
They will always be there,
no matter what.
Thou times, I may be insistent in things i do,
they never left me there.
If u happen to walk behind us,
do note tt there will always be 7 sets of footprints.
We never really left each other.
Really.

[[blast from the p.a.s.t - 02.04.05]]
trust (noun):
One in which confidence is placed.
out of boredom,
i reflected on my past r/s.
i retraced memory lane.
images flashed.
words spoken.
1 common word.
TRUST
obviously trust was the missin factor in all my failed r/s.
i dunch understand.
was insecurity a factor on my part?
i broke off with my first gf.
reason: i din trust her.
my 2nd gf broke off with me.
reason: coz i din trust her.
i broke off with my 3rd gf.
reason: coz i dun have trust in us.
my 4th gf broke off with me.
reason: there is no trust btw us.
i broke off with my 5th gf.
reason: trust was insufficient.
we were quite happy back then.
even thou,
small quarrels we had.
lil time we had for each other.
the past entries were sweet memories.
when everythin ended.
it was abrupt.
she was outta my life.
all sms deleted.
her number i deleted.
thou i still remember the 8 digits i dialled frequently.
i never tht tt any actions were a mistake.
i always believe.
people u meet in different stages of our lives,
make us grow up.
till i learn to trust.
i guess..
she will never know.
tt someone loves her fm afar.
