This City Never Sleeps
Tuesday, August 30, 2005 @ Being Happy with Andrew Matthews !!!
Just in case you do not know who is Andrew Matthews, he was the author who brought us the best selling Being Happy!, Making Friends and Happiness in a Nutshell, where these are 3 books which provides us with inspirations of life. Not forgetting that they are the 3 best selling titles as well.

Well, Matthews is in Singapore for the past few days promoting his new book, Happiness Now. And today, it seems that a trip to Parco Bugis Junction with Yao Ming makes us see two well known people.

First is Rayson Tan, the Mediacorp actor aka Chen Liping's hubby. The first reaction Yao saw Rayson Tan: did you see what i see? And when i looked at the man wearing a lime green cargo pants and light green long sleeve tees, the look rings me a bell. And both of us followed the direction where Rayson was walking to. In the end, we decided to walk towards Adidas shop instead of being a stalker, cos 1) we do not want to be accused of some psychos following celebrities, 2) Chai Joo's previous nasty experience on Edmund Chen and Xiang Yun at Parkway Parade.

I decided to visit Books Kinokuniya later, since there's nothing much to see at Parco. And there's where the notice of Andrew Matthews is signing his books over the counter. Yao and i was wondering if we should get his book.

Just when we were wondering if we should get hsi book, Matthews walked towards the shelves where his books were placed together with the Kinokuniya staff. And Yao decided to get Making Friends, since that was a book where he find it useful for his social circle. Well, before Matthew leaves, Yao had the book signed personally by him, and at the same time, taking pictures together. As for me, i managed to get it signed by Matthews and had a pic taken with him, even though sis had 3 of his books, but i don't have it with me.

And should i say i am happy right now? I gotten Matthew's autograph, and purchased the DVD of Before Sunrise yesterday. Now, i had overspend on DVD's this week. Never in my life before i buy 2 DVD's at a go on 2 days.

Just in case you are lost with what i said, mabey this can help you?

Now, i am keeping my fingers crossed to wait for the arrival for Analogues.

Somewhere around the corner in the city lies a man with some past...
