Were and Are..

When I came to Singapore 13 years ago..
I had one thing in mind. To look for Noriko Sakai's CDs and photo albums.

She was still quite popular back then, though not the most popular one.
She never was. Although she had quite a number of faithful fans. Like me.

And today.. the only thing you hear about her... is the news that she is jailed,
for using drugs. Sigh.. how things change.

And then there is this not-so-famous singer-actress Stella Ng.
I think she made it into some movies few years back.
And was in the videoclip for Meteor Garden's OST (by Harlem Yu).

Today?
The latest news is that she is being sued for bankruptcy by Awfully Chocolate.
But no need to pity her.. because she is not a bankrupt at all.
Her 'Black as Chocolate' cake stores are doing great in Taiwan. She is most likely a millionaire now. Found her news here

Not bad at all.. she wouldn't have made that much if she were to stay with mediacorp, competing with Jeanette Aw, Felicia Chin, etc.

Noriko Sakai and Stella Ng.. both have the look but not so much of the whole package thing to become A-list celebrities.

But what a difference in their life story.

I hope I would see Noriko Sakai complete her life journey in much better way.
And I hope all of us here would finish this race well.
It's not how we started and where we are now that matters.
It's how we finish.

journal: a little update

wow I am actually back to this blog. between Apr 27 2018 and now.. what has happened? I officially proposed to my girlfriend (wah.. trust me you gonna miss that word), got married, and.. became a dad. yeah.. all in a matter of less than 2 years. now when you consider the fact that in 2015 I would not have the slightest idea how things would turn out, it just goes to show how life changes in a blink. How is married life? Well.. I am one of those who has pretty pragmatic view when it comes to marriage. I have seen enough to know that relationship is messy. So.. I must say marriage has been way way better than my expectation hah.. For example.. I knew that my wife is a smart woman. I knew some of her shortcoming too.. (and there are some I didn't know till we got married, of course) BUT... here's the big bonus. I didn't know she can be that adorably funny in her own way. Not funny like a standup comedian funny but.. you know.. she makes me laugh. Trust me.

Hmm..

si mahasiswa NTU yg bunuh diri itu denger2 namanya david. sigh.. mgkn final year presssure was too much to him. jadi inget masa2 kerjain final year project, tinggal 3 bulan dan gua maseh blank. untung ngga masuk berita ky dia. life is a funny thing. well since there is a chance that this may not be a simple suicide, lets not assume so. maybe there's a truth behind this. duh.. jd inget kalo di conan trus dia bilank, "ini bukan bunuh diri.. ini adalah kasus pembunuhan!" jadi serasa mao jadi detektip -_-
