Bizzare Life....

Had BBQ at ZenSports yesterday night. Yes, you heard it right, BBQ held not at the beach or chalet, but at the car workshop, haha. And also its been a long time since I've tasted delicious BBQ chix wing. And I must really commended that the ones I had were really good. Yum Yum!!! Think they ordered from this place called BBQ wholesale or something.

We ate, drank and chatted thru the night till about 3 plus. Initially, we were chit-chatting about places to travel etc, but somehow or rather our topics drifted to encounters of the third kind... and all those strange incidents that some of them had during their holidays. Most of their encounters were at the hotels.

Frankly speaking, I absolutely abhor staying alone in a hotel room. Well, that is unless I've no choice but to. Just like last year when my boss decided to send me to Shanghai Office, ALONE. My first thought was, "I've got to sleep alone?!... arrghh..." and especially, after hearing all the frightening stories from Eileen about her strange incident once in a Taipei hotel, and of her colleagues. Alas, I thought I was gonna die of fear... ;p Yes, I hate to admit it, but as my age increases, it seems like my level of timidness increases as well. A parallel relationship, wahaha. But hey, at least I'm frank enough to say so.

But still, I guess sometimes your mind does play tricks in your head. Luckily, that trip was only for 2 nights, and the room was not eerily spacious enough. Somehow, I feel that a hotel room does not need to be too spacious. And of course, I do not mind it to be if I do not have to stay alone, hee...
Talking of that, I was wondering how will our bridal suite at the Intercon Hotel looks like? Hmm.....

Another sad news I heard from Billy during last night chit chatting. A recent true incident. The story goes, he had a customer, a malaysian guy who will always called him everyday morning to order stocks from him. But one morning, he did not get any call from him, and just as he was wondering why, he heard the bad news. He had went to desaru with his wife to take their prewedding pictures. On their way travelling back to Singapore, they met with a fatal car accident. Both the driver and photographer whom were seated infront, had miraculously survied with minor injuries, but the couple died, the guy immediately, and the gal on the way to the hospital.

The saddest part was, both died in their wedding gown and suit. And they ended up having their wedding pic for their wake. :'( What could be sadder than having a happy occassion turned into a tragic one. My immediate reaction was a gut wrenching feelings in my heart, and I silently mourned for a minute. And all of us went silent for a whilez, before we resume our chatting and joking. Guess everyone just wanted to avoid continuing with it.

How bizzare and fragile indeed life can be and how everything seems to be fated at times. We should all treasure what we have now and enjoy the moment..... for we do not know what life has instore for us. The super irony was that while writing this blog, I was listening to a string of romantic love songs with baobei, as we are selecting songs for our wedding express highlights.
