Ever felt this way...

Have you ever felt this way? Ever felt that you are just this little small you in this BIG GIANT world? Take these "man tou" for instance. It's being surrounded by bigger "stuff" around it. Ever felt like one of these man tou?

Well, I do. Having the whole salon looking up to me, every move I make is a learning point for them. Every wrong step I take they would follow. Every wrong word I say is gonna be remembered. It's freaky. Or for all the pictures that I've taken and yet to edit? And the jobs I am going to take up? The little projects of making a new menu for my uncle's restaurant. Taking up a production project that need resources that I DO NOT HAVE. It's crazy I tell you. It's nuts. I may seem fine half the time, but when I am alone walking down the street, or laying on my bed before I sleep, my brain just gets switched on and can't stop thinking about all these things.

But you know what? Thank God I have a few more "man tou" beside me. People like Gracie and Carmen to make me smile and give me a nice big hug. People like Sharon to cook and sorta talk to. Brothers like Roy, Kern, Tim that would cook and hang out and just talk nonsense when I need to. Tse Min if I wanted to just get away and watch a movie without talking. She'd just be there. Lin, who'd always make me smile and laugh with her being just herself. Keep reminding me to smile and be happy. She's the bomb. And Wei Xiong who goes out late at night wtih me to shoot anything and everything, He's blog makes me laugh. And of cause, not to forget people like Ps Matt who is like a dad to me, giving me advice all the way, Pei Jet who is like a big sister that looks after me. Andrew, Andre, Alex who are always cheering me on NO MATTER WHAT! These are the guys that are around me. These are the guys that matters to me. These are the man tou God has place in my life at this session of time....
