[[My Korean Name]]
Was surfing around on the Net and came across a Chinese website with names of Korean artistes spelt in English and written in Chinese.
Guess what my name would sound in Korean?
Yoo Seung-Hoon!!
Haha...damn it does sound really different from Chinese. But quite cool eh?
I wanna learn Korean!!! But actually, I wanna go to Korea (South, not North) even more.
Will the dream be realised next year? Hmm...

[[New LCD Monitor!]]
I've got a new LCD monitor!!
Haha...pardon me for being overly excited, but I never expected my father to agree so readily on getting a new monitor once the old one started to get real cranky.
Not to mention he suggested a 19" instead of 17". Man, little did I expect that!
But yeah, I'm really satisfied with the new monitor. And hopefully, it will last me a long time because I don't really feel like spending money in the near future for another monitor.
Starting to dread the coming two weeks. Sighx...why must every weekend pass by so very quickly?
it's a strange feeling, but I don't know why I wished I was talking to you now...

2 years really pass by so quickly. Too quick for me to realise that it has, indeed, been 2 long years.
Yet, it was a day I could never forget in my whole life. A day I wished all the time that I could re-live. Just for once.
Perhaps it is a good thing that I never do get the chance to. Because humans are, by nature, greedy. Given an inch, you'll want a yard.
Oh well...life still goes on. And on. And on.
Anyway, I wonder if I'm the only one who thinks this way, but why do the daily decisions made by some top people in Army always seem to befit any...logic?
If it ain't broke, why fix it? If there really is nothing better to do, why look for something to? And often, or rather, always, it is at the expense of people who serve the nation for a paltry sum of money every month.
And mind you, we are there to serve the nation, not to bloody serve you!
Or maybe it's just me who can't see the "bigger" picture. Or the "wider scope of things".
I may not always be right, but I am never wrong.

[[I wonder...and wander]]
Was flipping through my drawers and cupboards over the weekend. It's strange, but sometimes you just feel like rummaging through some old stuff for some memorable history.
The most interesting ones that caught my attention were a few pieces of foolscap paper. It was scribbled with some words of encouragement from a particular someone. Most of the contents were in Chinese, but the cutest part of the messages were that of telling me to be 10:10 on the clock instead of 8:20.
Hmm, I sense a few puzzled reactions. What the heck am I talking about?
Well, it's actually pretty simple. Imagine a clockface showing the hour hand pointing at 10 while the minute hand points at 2. And viola!! You actually get a smiley face! Thus, if the hour hand points at 8 and the minute hand points at 4, you get a frown.
Get the explanation? So yeah, it's someone slipping me a note trying to turn the frown on my face into a smile. And you know what, as far as I can remember, it worked almost everytime.
And guess what, those foolscap papers actually date back to the year of......1999!! Even before the turn of the millennium!! That means they have been with me for like, 7 years? That's already a one-third of my lifetime!
It's strange that something so simple can actually do so much. I mean, how nice can words be scribbled on foolscap paper look? Even the most expensive foolscap paper you can buy looks like, well, just another foolscap paper.
What I'm trying to drive across is that on many occasions, you do not have to go all out to make someone feel better, to make someone feel cherished and important and so on. All it takes is sincerity and a genuine heart to do so.
And I wonder why I never realised that things could have been this simple a few years back when it had dawned on me 7 years ago. Not to mention failing to convince myself that these simple things that touched my heart would similarly touch others' too.

Feel so much like blogging, but don't know what to say.
Sighx...life is starting to get boring after finishing watching Princess Hours. It feels so terrible sometimes when you wake up with nothing to look forward to for the whole day.
Does life really start only after 30 for men? Gosh...that's another, like 9 more years!!
Perhaps I do need to leave this place for a while, to leave everything behind, to start everything from scratch, to find another meaning to life...

Just finished watching a Korean drama, Princess Hours. I'm pretty amazed by myself, managing to finish 24 discs in the space of, 4 days?
But I have say that it's because it's really a nice show, that's why I could barely stop myself from watching one episode after another. It's currently showing weeknights 7pm on Channel U. Catch it if you can. Haven't been so captivated by a drama ever since It Started With A Kiss.
And the songs in the show are nice too! Not to mention the good looking cast. A real pity that the sequel will not showcase the 4 lead characters. Because I'm not so sure that without Yoon Eun Hye the show would be as watchable. She's just adorable! Especially her portrayal of the character in the show. I can hardly tell from her performance that this is actually her acting debut.
So yeah, it was a happy ending. Feel kinda sad actually. The last few days have been spent looking forward watching every episode. Now that I've finished the whole series, suddenly there's not much to look forward to again.
Looks like it's time to search for another drama to watch. Hmm...
