Oh..sweet Saturday

Working on Saturday are wtf wasting life and honestly this small peanut firm has more redundant policies than any other. I'm not saying that I totally hate my job,perhaps I don't but it is something that has to do with the "management" that is so blah.
Am looking forward to next year when I intend to throw the letter. Why next year?Well..I have my lil' reasons and really, what's gonna happen when I throw the letter is still a big question mark.
Scary question mark.

No matter how tired I was on Friday night, I would find myself sleeping the least on that night. My brain is way awake before my body and I find myself already waking up like 4am plus?
Saturday is beautiful or more likely I find myself looking forward to meet Jason thus I cant wait to wake up the night before. Hahaha.
Enuff of such stuff.

Am gonna watch Chronicles of Narnia - Prince Caspain later!!
I can't believe it was 3 years ago when I watched The Lion, the wardrobe and the witch. (I wondered why so long..)I certainly didn't feel it's was like 2005 when I watched that!
I didn't realized that either until I read in magazine stating that loud and clear.

It is that unfathomable sense of surprise,shock and even a lil' dread seeing how the recent years fly and memories are becoming blurry. The things you did seemly only fresh in your mind but are really,really yonks ago.

-shudders-

How many times have we discussed about that? Despite knowing time flies, there is still no guarantee definite time on earth and everything, we still live the way we do.

Hate to brood over these "uncontrollable" issues and love the way today is, yesterday was,tomorrow be.

Happy weekend,people.

All gals love frangrances and totally irrelevant to the later part.

Beyonce made the Armani's new fragrance - Diamond "smell" so good even without smelling it. I wonder how is the actual smell.
I heartx,heartx,heartx my Burberry London though I do prefer JLo Still better.
I am not a perfume collector cos' it is a lil dear on my pockets and there are alot which I like and forgo. Sob.(Cheap EDT doesn't count.)
Boss gave the same Chloe perfume for X'mas twice (yawn) and I didn't like that. No one in my family likes it cos' it's too strong!
I didn't even open the Elizabeth Arden - Green Tea set she gave last year. By the time I really open that, the green tea will become black tea. (Wait..that is no EDP, that's just a scent vapouriser,whatever it is)
Kwakwa.

I still like that Marc Jacobs -Daisy and Anna Sui - Wish(or is it the other?) CK one shall always remain a neutraliser for me. Oh!! That Fcuk (I like pronouncing it as F(fff)cccuuk(ke) ) one I had comes pretty close.

My scent is pretty the flowery,sweet and citrus type. I only dislike powdery and overly musky.

Finally Rhythm of Life ended on a pretty good note (Though utterly lame).
If you get to go back once more, how would you choose to live? What would you choose to do and not?
Life's no such choices and regrettably, we still make mistakes here and there and live to waste our breathe on earth.

I don't know. I wont be young like now but again I don't really look forward in reliving the younger age cos' I don't want to be as ignorant & confused as I was.
Sure there are many good things about being young. Who doesn't enjoy being labelled as the under 21s or even 19s?
I had my fun then. I known alot of friends and I would say I miss my 17 to 20 years old most now.
But....I just feel every day is a bliss. I mean, you get to wake up alive, breathing unstale air, eat to your heart(or maybe stomach) desires, and you actually are wiser than yesterday.

Perhaps you realised that little or not and that kinda emotion growth is something comparable like your hair growth. You may not realised it the next day but over sometime,you realised the length is longer than perhaps a month back.

So saying that...I just feel that I am happy now or rather lazily contented in a way. It's not necessary a good thing but for what had happened to the world now, it is not a bad thing for a moment.
One thing's for sure is that I am definitely less ..ermm..stupid?Confused?Whatever it is than I was in my younger days and I am sure going forward, I would feel,no doubt older & greyer,smarter and perhaps(hopefully) prettier than who and how I am today.
Hahahaa.

You never know, would you?

TGIF

While this post may comes a tad too early but the end of Friday is always orgasmic. (Though I have to work on fucking Saturday. Damn.)

Y'know the Rythmn of Life @ Cha 8,9pm? I can't hear but to keep blaming Junjie (Christopher Lee) for his indecisiveness and causing Zhiling's misery.
I thought this show is using the Butterfly's Effect's notion and create a draggy drama outta it. Each time you thought you can prevent one event, another one would break out and it's often worse.

I smell durian now!!!!*Sniff*
ARGH!!!

With reference to Von's blog about her proposal to ZQ, I told her that I would bet with her $10 that if I propose to Jason, his reaction would be in the line of,"huh..dunwan ah."
Haha.
That's Jason for you. He will always say such things and make me laugh like mad. (Although sometimes I have no idea why I keep laughing too? As if laugh button has been pressed.)

I messaged him asking what would be his immediate reaction if I proposed to him? Immediate being no thoughts about it. I was curious and somewhat wanna win my bet with myself.
His answer came before bedtime saying,"If I have the money...I will say yes."

Kwakwa. I knew it though that is not exactly the answer I had in mind. My answer was still him trying to piss me and make me laugh.
I told Von too that Jason is the type that would make sure he can do it well before executing. That I am right about it. Without the money, without everything that is ready, Jason will not propose. He won't let love blind his rationale in this area cos' he wanna make sure he is able to marry me before he actually do so.

Not that I am in a hurry to marry lah. But in case you do not know, the power of girlfriends are pretty influential. One breakout would lead to another couple finding faults with their relationship. Likewise one happy marraige (or more) would lead the other wishing to do the same soon.

Sweet girlfriend,Fyn bought me that (so pretty!!) from her short trip to KL. That is awfully sweet of my dear. MUaCkkkkks!

Ok..Tomorrow's Thursday. Tired. I had trouble waking up every working morning.


(Taken 28/5/08)
Yawns.

Miss ya.

Talk about the world

With last 15 mins of my lunch, shall do a quick blog.
You know, there are so many sad news every day and then you would always read something crazy.
I did a quick check of my yahoo mail every morning before work and I read this quick news at the homepage. Crazy German couple put their infant boy on sales at Ebay and was arrested for child trafficking. That mother claimed it was a joke but the police see no joke in that.
I supposed all the epidural made her a lil' abnormal.

Met up with dear Yuanpin yesterday after work. Finally (and ashamedly...) I bought insurance. The longer you procrastinate, the more expensive it is to cost you. If you guys really want a GOOD insurance advisor who do his job with a heart and NOT JUST ANOTHER PRODUCT PUSHING INSURANCE AGENT, please do not hesitate to look for him. =)

So another 4 hours to go before end of Tuesday's work. Groans....
I feel the sleepy spell attack is making its' way.

It's another case of the Monday blues

So what's new for a Monday?
Lunching at 12pm sucks big time but again that's better than having no food. (Just what kinda comparison is that?)

Von & ZQ leaving for Hongkong earlier than we (Jason & I) are. Lol. That is quite a pleasant news.
Can't wait till my own holidays.

The recent catastrophe made us think. Think about life. There are so many sad souls who clung on to lives but still failed to escapes the clutches of death and that we called it fate.
Fate it is...

How does this ever change us in long run? Since young, we learned about the many sufferings all around the world and why haven't that change us till another tragedy happened?
Our lives has been too overly good and making us so darn lazy,ain't it so?

So what the fuck am I talking about? I am still trying to blink my sleepiness away.



We went to the Expo warehouse sales last Saturday and Jason bought this for me. I had determined to bring something home that day. I mean..you don't just go Expo to see the crowd yea?
I meant to pay for that but I had it as a 58th month gift. Hehe.

Sunday was spent celebrating his cousin's birthday. It's really a birthday celebration a month or at least the month without birthday celebration must be celebrated with something else.

For the sheer pleasure of meeting Jason (Hohoho), I didn't mind waking early on a SUNDAY(my precious sunday...) to finish the chores before stepping out.
KFC after Popeyes(On Saturday) is nothing but intense threatening to my figure!


That's our precious princess,Charmaine and her quite trade mark smile.(she's winking in this pic but ended up looking both eyes wink after so long.) She's so lovely and I never quite get sick of putting her photo and saying the same old things about her over and over again.

That's enough post for the last 20 mins of my lunch time.

It's back to work, sniffing in the EDP of Burberry and snooze.

有你。。。我是多么的幸福。

Over the weekend, I would usually post a longer post with all the happenings.
After watching the charity show for Sichuan, all happiness just vanished.
It is just so devastating...and devastating is just an understatement.

I can't imagine the lost of a love one overnight,within minutes and seconds. Perhaps we all should just try to imagine that. That pain,you would really rather wish you be the one passing through that gates of death.

It has been a very blissful weekend for me. I don't have to be in anywhere else when I'm with Jason to feel the bliss.
It's all the simple things we do.
This kinda bliss makes me feel so ashamed in a way. Comparing to those who is losing, who has lost...Who am I to complain about anything else?

Maybe a better update next time.
Everyone...cherish what you are bless with.

I love you.

Cute tofus taken at ActionCity. A quick snap before I get caught. ;p
The chocolate one s so cute!
Feel like collecting all but again what for right?

Watched Made Of Honour earlier on and actually I think What Happens in Vegas is much nicer. It's an equally sweet show but it seems a lil' too quickly like every single chapter is just a brief summary. The plot is nothing new anyway.
This is like the ermm..3rd wedding related show I watched in the month?

I caught 27 dresses on PPstream
What happens in Vegas has wedding scenes too.
Made of Honor is definitely a wedding show. How romantic it is to get wed in a castle huh?

Plus recent attendance of Irene's wedding, it made me dream of mine sooooo much!

Honestly when the bride throws the bouquet, most of us would not want to be that lucky pick realistically. BUT I know, deep down..We really wanna get 'thrown on'.Ha..ha...At least I felt so.

The process of trying to get the wedding done, no doubt darn tiring, but is such a sweet thing to do. If possible, I would wanna get as involved as possible in my own wedding. I mean...wedding planner? I would wish to be my own planner if I am creative and profession enough.

In my dream wedding, every couple dances alongside with us. Lots of flowers decorations and not to forget that 'Just Married' sign at the back of the car!
I want the gown to be those silky and body fitting material. V cut and halter neck with very elegant bareback design. Yes..long,long 'train' or tail (whatever you gals call that) behind too.
I dunno if there should be specification about flowers but is pink roses ok? How about pink and white?
My groom would be in smart, tailor made white suit. Hehe.

I don't really want a Chinese banquet if I have a choice.
I just know that my ROM should not just be a simple affair of signing the papers. To me, that moment already signifies your marriage so it should be done nicely and made more memorable than just penning it down.
To me when I made the toast, it should be once and for all. Couple toast to the crowd and that photographer should capture that very moment! Going table to table and yam seng is so not romantic and really tiring!

But should a Chinese banquet really be mandatory(Actually really only outta respect but pointless respect cos' whose paying huh?!), I am sorry to inform that shark fin soup is outta the list.
Don't get me wrong, I LOVEEEEE that delicacy(still rem' that A grade shark fin from Irene's wedding..*Drool*) but I just don't feel right anymore eating an endangered species. What about mushroom,corn,chicken soup? LOL. That would be something unique in wedding right?

Wedding,wedding..Not something that would be happening to me anytime soon.
I just wonder as the years go on, would I still dream of wedding this beautifully?

Happy 58th (and one) month, Jason.

Cheers!

It's some long time no blog but I guess I will leave proper entry for the weekend.
This week passes kinda fast but yet amazingly slow during office hours. What's new right?
More & more sad stories filling from Sze Chuan and there are some that really makes you wanna cry.

For instance...I heard of this mother who were trapped in her house with her infant. She carefully scopped her baby and breastfed her. She saved a message in her mobile saying that if her baby still lives, she wanna let the baby knows that she loves him/her.
When they discovered them, the mother was dead and the baby lives.

I really would have cry if I wasnt at work.

If you were to lost someone you love tomorrow and cry, why not start treasuring them now?
It is always easier said than done, I know.

I just wanna let all of you know that I love you guys!

You always be a part of me, I'm part of you indefinitely.

I still can't get over how romantic this line is.-Sigh~

Finally, finally...The whole wedding ended beautifully. All months (I think it's really MONTHSSSSS) that we anticipated(almost quite constipated for me & Vonx cos' we are so darn worried about our hair,our make up,our dressings etc), the gala ended yesterday.
(I am so shagged now)

It is my first time being 姐妹 and I have no idea that it is so tiring trying to pose for the camera. I think towards the ending, all of our smiles must have looked pretty plastic and our poses were so spastic.
There's 2 or so of the brothers being such an ass and loser! The point is..boys, if you are not game enough and especially if you are not the one doing the dirtiest job, shut the f up!

The one sitting next to the groom is the biggest crap of all. No offense to Junxian but he(that loser) really sucks. The middle guy in the pink shirt(whom I just conveniently call him Ce-fei-lo cos' he is the cefiro driver) is the nicest of all.
Nicest & so freaking brave to offer his FRENCH kiss to Ah fei aka the emcee - Adrain(Top right end)
Our french kiss idea is a spontaneous joke that they really did it. (freaking gross but I really have to hand it up to them.) That is call BROTHERS. Not the one not doing anything but yakked his whole shite away and took it on my friend!
Btw..the one next to Ce-fei-lo with the extra thick and bushy eyebrow is another piece of shite.

Please note that in that pic, the brothers still have their G-strings on. Those G-strings are so sexy right? Lol.

The banquet was held at Raffles Hotel. The whole place is so dreamy and romantic that it makes me really wish I can hold my wedding there.(with no thoughts involved on the monetary aspect.)

The hotel exteriors.





The room interior.



At the wedding reception area.







The ball room.(only have time to take a pic)


Dinner was good and Irene helped me to strike off another cake from the yummiest cake list. HAHA. Her wedding cake lychee martini( I dunno where is the martini) cake from Pine Gardens. Usually people just use dummy cakes but her was the solid 3 layers of cakes that is all distributed as the second desserts to her guest.
So thank you,my beautiful bride.

Every wedding has their beautiful moments. The moment the bride & groom walks down the, the aisle,the champagne popping moment, the toast moment, the groom singing to the bride moment, the bride leaving her home with tears in her and her mother's eyes moment, the veiling an unveiling moment etc./
It just makes the other girls dream of their own. Well..who doesn't?

To Irene & Jimmy,

May all love be bless on you and happiness follow. Thank you for inviting us to be part of your beautiful moments.

God bless this heaven match couple.

Love,

Ling.

It is official.
I need to shed the pounds!It is disgusting to feel a flabby,bloated stomach. My mouth and brain are the worst enemies!

By now,everyone would know or at least heard of the deadly 7.9 earthquake that picked its spot at Sze Chuan.
That is equivalent to some 256 atomic bombs for God's sake!
Things are not even solve at Myanmar!

Life is so vulnerable & so damn unpredictable. I read before that life and death join us together. That's saying that even though we are not related,may not even know each other...but you would still feel sad as if an obligation to, when death happens.

I just can't imagine that helplessness . You wouldn't wanna die that way, would you? It is fear before death and you can't even choose to fight against it. Everything is at mercy of fate and that small twist of luck.

You know the evil thing, I feel about all these catastrophes is that the people on the other end...most people running the economy, still go on and do their show.
It is the same as you and me just take that as a toilet read and still go to our work the next morning.
I know there is nothing that we can do about that either...I know.
Sigh.

Just hope...that God has his mercy on us.Us..all of us.

Don't take offense,friends.

Let me just put it short & clear here.
No matter what kinda situation it is, I will NOT help my friends and most probably second degree friends whom I know too, to ever..ever,ever look for jobs as long as I still stay in this profession.

It is not that I am declaring my selfishness out loud but fuck it, I had enough.
On one hand, I am trying to protect my friends' interest and tried my best to do what I can in my limits, letting them have priorty in jobs, having better than usual candidates.
On the other hand, I have my fucking limits as a consultant and if I haven't look at the point we are friends, I would show you what's business, mean business.

I too,hate it when they were at one point keep asking, " Eh..how huh?! Got job or not?" That job could be just for themselves and sometimes even their friends and kins! Like I bloodly owe them some fucking jobs! Just because I am a recruitment consultant, I am your friend, I don't happen to owe you anything. Not you, not your friends, not your family,not your neighbour!!

I seriously would love to help my friends and their friends (and we somewhat will be friends too) if I can but sometimes that is a mistake.
You heard of how friends shouldn't work together?(Ok...technically Fyn & I were colleagues then friends) That's the whole deal.

I have no wish to repeat this kinda incident again & I hope I wont hear any of you asking if I have jobs for your friends especially.
---
I hate it when he* used to message me in the lines of "Help my friends to keep a lookout for jobs,ok? No need to be stress over it...haha."
FUCK!
Sigh..but I did help most of his friends to look for a job then.
---

You have no idea who I am at work and I wish you won't get to know who I am at work.
I dont wish to end up trying to protect my friends and be answerable to my managers then.
Let's leave it at here.

This post is REALLY not posting in specific to anyone. It is just finally a conclusion that I've come to after these years.
So whatever that you know of, you just don't ever bring this matter up again.

I had enough of long and nonsensical dreams! It is tiring my brain so much that I didn't feel well rest.
Had no idea why the dreams are getting so nonsensical & tiring and it is always the longest one hour before I really wake, which is causing me really not sleeping.

Gotta stop all forms of laziness!!!
ARGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

PS: When will my hair ever,ever get long?

This is a rhetorical question so don't bother.

I was just struck by a really spontaneous thought and recorded it down in my bucketlist.
I wanna eat BIG MAC!
Eat me if you dare.

It is a seemly duh choice and you can just eat Big Mac anytime. But I don't recall eating Big Mac before & each time I visited Mac(like last night only?), I will considered anything but Big Mac, search me.

Eating Big Mac doesn't consider as a tough (& healthy) choice and considering the fact I am not exactly a small eater at times, this just doesn't seem tough right?

Well...we shall see. Eating that is so messy and just the thought doesnt really appetize me.
We shall see when I can do that, shall we?

Happy Sunday!

If Sunday could replace Monday, the lifespan of 80% of the city dwellers could perhaps increase by another 1-3 years, happily. Period.



That is the supposed to get list for Saturday,mainly to get prep for Irene's wedding.

Ended I did not managed to get anything for Mothers' Day which is today.

No pretty hair clip.

No pro- eye liner.

No lipstick & lip liner.

One concealor from Benefits (Now we shall see how miraculous that Benefit really is)

No eye shadow/blusher.

No cake got strike off the list this Saturday.

Jeans for Jason,ditto.



Could it be an exhausting prior week or it is just me? This week, I suffered the lowest energy ever and I kinda wanna return back to my lazy,useless mode. -slap!-



It was heavy thunder yester-dawn right? I rem' telling my mum to be careful on her way to work from my bedroom(Not sure if she heard that though) and there was this stupid prank call at 5am.


Banglah: "Ah~llo~ I want a free date ah.."
Me:" HUH!?"
Banglah:" "Free date."
Me: " Fuck you." And I hung the phone.

Needless to say, the phone stop ringing. I thought it could be my mum, thinking if she left something behind or so. Stupid asses!

Anyhow...Jason and I went to watch "What happens in Vegas" yesterday. I was reading on the short interview with Ashton Kutcher in I-weekly and he mentioned this show was something about how man and woman having different views on marraige. Thought it was interesting till I read an indept review about the movie.
I seriously thought I would regret that spontaneous decision but I had already booked the tickets.
Well...the movie ain't that bad. It's funny and romantically cute in some small ways. Cameron Diaz is just kick ass hot and Ashton Kutcher, I feel just feels the same in whichever movie he acted in.
I was thinking if Ashton Kutcher ain't hitched, there might be some showbuzz between both of them. You know, one has a thing of older ladies and one just broke off (ok..not just..)with a younger man.

You know of this Shokudo bistro at Cineleisure Orchard?

The big menu outside just features some seemly very average pastas and pizzas at some seemly reasonable prices right?

That is just a bait.

When you decided to step in and order your fill, you would realised that the prices are not the same, so are the varieties.
Those cheaper pastas & pizzas are meant for students. Blah!


But one thing I have to admit is that their pastas are quite nice.
Say average pricing of a pasta is $14 - $16.
I would say...unless you are rich, or have some special occasions like friends' gathering or sort, or just feeling a lil' cashy~, it's worth a try.
For us...we are kinda tricked but we have a good time there joking.

On our way back to Taka but I was stung by a black black round round unknown insect on the hand. Hell that stings and it really hurts. I still have no idea what it was and it made that area of my arm swells.
Jason brought me to Watsons to get some antiseptic cream when he saw Fyn & Benson (LOL) on our way to Watsons. When I turned, I only saw their backs and decided that my stinging arm is perhaps more important than that 'hi'. Wouldn't want Fyn to gasp in horror anyway.

I was still jokingly saying perhaps I would have some special power when I wake up the next morning. Jason just decided that my super hero nickname is BBRR(When he still drew that BBRR thing beneath my collar bones.) I was asking what is BBRR??He told me, black black, round round.
I still laugh.
Damn!

It is a weekend with no nice photos (of me) so take the weekend easy.
Till next week, Irene's wedding is beautifully done...my life should get back to schedule. This is hell long of a packed and tiring month.


There is only one lucker Fcuker among the cool Fcukers. Lol.

On life...

Yuanpin said one's mindset can changes his life and he said I am the type that just want to live life simply. What he meant is perhaps I could try to be a lil' more ambitious in life, try exploring the edge a lil more and I know that one without aspiration(s), as the old saying goes, lives an empty life.

I have been spending just a tad more time reading (trying less discreetly) forwarded emails and chatting via emails during work. I came across some saddest stories in life and I know life, individual to another, is never ever fair.

Say there's this story about a couldn't be more than 5 year old boy in a 3rd world country(which I forgotten) got his hand ran under a truck AS A PUNISHMENT for stealing a just a fucking piece of bread (I assumed that he was too young, too hungry, too poor to do that.) That is a punishment based on that fucking group of unorthodox religious fucking bastards and they did that to a child who knew possibly nothing.
Every of my cells fueled by fume and helplessness. I just wish, often wish that I have some kinda special power to fly over to that place in time to finish off everyone there.
To me,these group of demons just can't be forgiven by love. I am no Saint and I can't bring myself to forgive this kinda monstrous act. They are brought right from hell and deserved to go back there in the most torturous manner that I could think of.

Say even if that email is a faux, I just believe that there is so many unfairness practice to our own mankind BY our own mankind and it is insane.

The thing about life is...Some of us don't even have the choice to complain and many of us who are in the much more fortunate situation did.
By that I meant not anyone else but perhaps most of us out there.

I don't wanna complain and be ashamed about wanting just to lead a simple life. I could be an under achiever, a dreamer, a 3 minute passion kinda drifter in life but I just don't find fault with such a simple asking life.
Okay...I may not be expecting the simplest life and I have my desires of materials.
Who doesn't?

A simple date makes me happy.
A good time with my friends makes me happy.
Talking to my dad in the kitchen just now or rather more of listening to him, makes me happy.
A simple long-time-no-chat (and it's a good one) with Jason over the phone just now, makes me happy.
Blowing kisses with my dad JUST JUST now before he goes to sleep, makes me happy.
Doing reflections of my bliss - the health, the safety etc, makes me happy.

Happy not as in HAHAHAHA,happy.
Happy with just a -sigh-smiley happy.

That...a life like this...is nothing too difficult & nothing wrong right?

I often felt I am wasting my life, my youth away for not doing something great, something meaningful enough but do I wanna spend my time instead trying to figure which is the most meaningful and how to do it, what's the next step AND then miss out on all those things...those simple things in life?

I dunno...There is no perfect situation in life.One comes, one has to go. I guess at the end of day, it very much depends on what kinda person you really are.
For me, I guess I am just me.
-shrugs.- =)

On a side note...I dunno what's up with you* suddenly telling me that you and her* are not together yet but you* are wooing her. What is the meaning of telling me and I am saying now, I don't give a fuck about that.
The reason that I was kinda revolted about you* was the very sudden change of mind and you* suddenly become another person I wish not to be.
You are still you, that I didn't know only.

Oddly enough...I still care to wish you all the best, though rather nonchalantly.
You were a great friend, funny one. Great and dangerous memories.
I guess there are some people I just can't afford to be friends with, till the another time comes.

That's it. From that bye-bye-bye, it is goodbye.

Not gonna be too lengthy about that cos' I don't see the need to talk and there is no extra emotions coming out from me.

Hope to be able to turn in earlier tonight(this is from someone who has been yawning and complaining how tired she is throughout the week) cos' I have a bet with Jason.
Whoever reaches earlier at Orchard's Mcdonald between 10am to 10.30am, gonna buy breakfast.

I got a feeling I am gonna be that one cos' I always spend too much time checking my hair in the mirror before I step out.

Oh well..keep you updated.

Love,
Ling

That mad Cyclone Nargis

KilledAffected(JAson is so gonna laugh at me again) estimated 1 million (If I am not mistaken) and figures still rising, people in Myanmar.
After watching the news last night, I returned back to my bed feeling a sense of indescribable bliss of us.
I feel awfully sorry and it is beyond words of what happened over there and I would not hesitate to donate within my means when I see the donating boxes tomorrow in town.
I just can't imagine the sense of helplessness and dread the people must have felt over there.

Can you imagine that your family and house is gone within your sight? If you witness all that tragedy happening with your own eyes, it is as good as seeing a monster that's right in front of you and going to devour you. You can feel fear watching such genre of movies let alone it happening in actual?

That brings me back to that tsunami incident in 05. (3 years has passed?!)
Just made me shudder imagining if I were the one there. What if I die? What if I live? What if my family and friends were there? Help is not all around and religion & faith is barely keeping you alive.

Sometimes...I just wish I could do more to be less selfish about life.

Always be my baby - David Cook

I know the original singer of that song is Mariah Carey but David Cook just give a manly touch to that song.
I was smiling to myself as I listened to that song while waiting for the ordered mui-fan.
I was already half dreaming that this should be the song that my groom should sing on stage,doing an acoustic version to me.
But then again I have so many songs in mind that my groom should sing on stage. Lol.

That mui-fun was for my brother anyway. I just had tuna-cheese wholemeal bread & milk. I dunno why I so 屁股痒to buy the strawberry HL milk. It tasted so awful, machiam some really sick tasting medi syrup. I threw away 60cents worth of it.
Blah!

Nothing much to post cos' I have been feeling really sleepy at work these few days, with prominent dark eye circles. (As if it is already not prominent enough on usual days.)
Just hope tomorrow would be better. =)

A really unhealthy lunch, I know. I am never a healthy choice binger. We live to eat,right?
That philosophy much contrary to my everyday complaint of a thick waist and round face.

This was last night dinner at 品食with Yuanpin.
OMG, tomorrow is Yuanpin's birthday!!! Don't know if he reads this or not but nonetheless...Happy Birthday,friend!! May all your wishes come true especially .... ;) Hehe.

A cute pink candy packaging from my mum's 'temp' boss. Quite nice though.I used to love candies alot when I was young. I still like it now but it is not a don't-eat-will-die thing.

Another yummy gift from that boss - a token of appreciation of helping in his coffeeshop these few weeks. That is a nice boss!

Ok, I was reading Xiaxue's blog just now and read the Firtzl's family case again.
I heard about this news before she blogged it on radio and was instantly sick on first hearing.

If you have no idea what is this case about, go http://www.dailymail.co.uk/pages/live/articles/news/worldnews.html?in_article_id=564291&in_page_id=1811

So fucking sick that fucker is! Imprisoned his daughter for 24 fucking years to repeatedly rape her! Rape is one thing, he also impregnated her and 7 children was borned!!!
I feel so fucking sick and so sorry for the girl and her child.
Imprisoned in a fucking dungeon with no sign of sunlight,let along a glimpse of how the outter world looks like.

So Xiaxue was commenting how fucking ridiculous unfair is that fucker's sentence by the law now and I have to say I totally agree that is whole load of fucking shite!

Incestous rape is one thing. Made her give birth so many times to imbred kids is another. I think the worst is to imprisoned her 24 freaking years and the kids (which I have no idea to be related as children or grandchildren) in hell!

I think he should be punish more in the way of slicing his penis few cms at a time and be raped by some other mentally sickos repeatedly till he die. Who knows he might enjoy that?
Fuck!

Enough of story sharing..not a pleasant one anyhow.

Blah!

Had dinner with Yuanpin at 品食 ,AMK hub.
It's his birthday treat and he makes it a point to ask each individual close friend of his to come out on different days to eat. I should said more specifically that he treats the dinner.
Nice right?
Yuanpin is just such a warm(literally & technically,lol) and nice friend.
I would have go on and type a whole paragraph if I wasn't so poofed. I have no damn idea why I am so tired today.

Problem is only when I reached home, I realised that Yuanpin & I were too engrossed in talking that I forgot to take photo with him!!!!
ARGH!

Night,people.

May my energy returns tomorrow.

I am sooooo TIRED!!!

Be A Great First Date! Evan Marc Katz In a perfect world, all first dates would result in second dates. But in reality, some women are not going respond to you. But do you have any idea why? Did you know that there’s actually a skill to dating? Oh, yes, there is. And the reason that you may fail the first-date test is not what you think. It has nothing to do with being tall, dark, and handsome, or taking her to the nicest restaurant in town. Being a great date has to do with one thing and one thing only: getting rid of your agenda and focusing on hers. So what is her agenda? What do women want from men on first dates? I’m so glad you asked… 1. Have a plan It’s not that “So…what do you want to do?” is a bad question, per se. I mean, of course you want to choose an activity that you know she likes. The thing is that, in asking her to come up with her own plan, you’re not establishing yourself as a leader. And generally, that’s what women want. A man who has ideas, a man who knows cool places, a man who can make reservations, name a time, and tell her when to be ready. Whether you choose a moderately priced, atmospheric bar in her part of town or suggest a museum that has an outdoor sculpture garden for strolling, by making a plan, you’re showing that you’re not just an average guy. And that’s the first step to building attraction and getting a second date. 2. Don’t try to impress Have you ever met someone who tried too hard to impress you? Maybe it was some woman showing off about how many countries she’s visited or some co-worker yapping about his Porsche, but either way, I’ll bet it was a turn-off. Then what is it about dating that turns us all into braggarts? I know there’s a temptation to show off all of the things that make you different, but resist it. Any woman worth dating will not be impressed by a man who’s trying to impress. The best dates are those who are confident without flaunting their wallet, resume, and a laundry list of accomplishments. And, by the way, if you think that “first date” means “nicest restaurant in the city”, think again. Women don’t want to be bought; they want to be valued and understood. Until you can do that, you’re going to have a hard time connecting on a date. 3. Be interested. Be interesting. Good conversation is like tennis. There’s a flow that can’t be scripted. She tells a story. You ask a question. She answers the question and asks you a different question. You tell a story. She relates another anecdote. Back and forth the conversation goes, until you’re both looking at your watches and wondering how it got to be so late. The key to making successful conversation is to ask relevant questions and genuinely listen to her answers. Too many times, we go on about ourselves without ever considering that our date might have something that she wants to say. So while you may come home thinking you had an amazing date who was a great listener, she’s wondering who the egomaniac was who couldn’t stop talking about himself. 4. Make her feel comfortable, not hunted. Yes, you think she’s attractive. Yes, there was some email flirting. Yes, it would be nice to eventually see each other naked. But now isn’t the time. Because it’s not about getting an immediate return on your investment. It’s about building trust. It’s about making it clear that your heart is in the right place. It’s about talking about connections with friends and family. It’s about alluding to a relationship in the future. While attraction is a part of dating, it’s easy to let your sexual desires turn her off. A compliment is nice. Over-complimenting is creepy. Ogling her – creepier still. So with all these rules in your head, how can you possibly be yourself on date? Simple. Just channel your best self – the one you are around your best friends from college, the one you are with your closest family members. Around these people, you don’t try to “be” a certain way. You don’t want anything from them. You’re comfortable. You’re effortless. You’re yourself. Now you’re in a great space to date. Go forward, and enjoy it! --Source. Yahoo.

You know how much you mean to me?

I finally couldn't take it and went ahead for a hair trim today. Hair trimming for mid length gals like me is like a I-won't-do-it-if-I-have-the-choice kinda task.
I had wanted to stall till Irene's banquet wedding is over but then again, my hair is so damn dry & thick!

Good Sunday once more,friends.
Whether you are mugging for exams, working, lazing at home..I just wanna let you people know that I miss you.

This week has been one busy one but an exceptionally blissful one for me. Just how many first time you can create in your life and even the simplest one made you smile.

First time @ Coca.

I always thought Coca is a Thai restaurant. So darn ignorant me!
I had my first time at Coca, Ngee Ann City with my colleagues on 30th April - Pre-Labour day.


Their VIP room has such nice black walls for photo taking.

Food wise of Coca is actually so so only. That's the thing about steamboat.I don't feel very nice actually using the same chopsticks to pick raw food and put it in your mouth.
A fun night but again the difference between colleagues & friends is the kinda topic you have at work, after work.

First time @ Paulander.

I always look across to Paulander whenever I'm waiting for my bus @ Suntec. I thought to myself that one day, I just gonna visit there.
So I did, 全托Irene's的福。^^


Paulander.


German sure can eat. Irene ordered is just a platter of meats meant for 3 serving pax and it leaves the 7 of us very full.


Sausages, roast pork, roast chicken, roast duck and soured cabbages = thicker waistline.


Salads for starters. Very nicely tossed salads!


It is a fool's decision to walk outta such a nice restaurant without tasting thier desserts.
Nice Menu.



I can't get a good view of the desserts from where I sat. Desserts were good but it didn't send me flying high, perhaps I was too full then.


My ladies in the ladies with me. x)

Total damage for Irene was a holy close to $400(I guess cos' I didn't see the receipt). That's a 2 plates of salads,a platter of meats,4 good dessert & 2 bottles of red wine.
Thank you,babe.

Just stepped outta Paulander, bidding everyone else goodbye...I received a call from Jason.
There, he created my another first time.

He came to fetch me in a car!
For a record, I never sat in a boyfriend's car and that I didn't mind. To me, boyfrined who drives a car now is an advantage, a convenience but not totally necessary.
I am not those that would fuss about boyfriends being able to drive their gals around town....I think. If not I wouldn't have be with a boyfriend for close to 5 years without a car,right?

I waited for another 30 mins before a red Chevrolet stopped infront of me.
Okay...That's his manager's car but how does it matter to me whose car it is? I am so grateful that I do not have to take the long ride home & still have to walk.

First time, Jason's driving me.


He just finished his second job @ night and could have just drive home to sleep. Instead he took the trouble to drive down town & fetched me. I couldn't feel more happy.

I greedily asked for a spin..almost naturally. I just didn't wanna go home to quickly at such a rare opportunity. Well...it could be something that MAY be common in days to come but the first time is beautiful.


Singapore Flyer.


This is Yin's gift for us from Hongkong. A member of the Hamtaro's clan and it looks so cute!!


I am just glad that I don't work at Raffles Place..yet? I just dislike that place in day.


I insisted a try in the car and was graded an immediate failure is less than 5 seconds. LOL!
That's it! I can't drive for nuts!

He drove me up to West Coast & have a light bite over there. (I didn't eat!!)
That is the convenience of having a automobile...It makes Singapore smaller.
After some walking, he drove me back.
I thought that night is sooooooo...beautiful.

Saturday was blazing hot!
I was just about to step outta my house when Jason messaged me to stay put cos' he's on the bus coming over.
I was surprised cos' I told him that he doesn't have to make a trip here specially (Like Bt.Panjang to Serangoon..you know that kinda journey by bus?) cos' we can meet at town.
I just thought he was so sweet to come over anyhow. =)

Surprisingly as I wanted to head to the bus direction, he led my hand to the car park. You should have see my face expression! I was like with my mouth open, eyes widen and break into big smile.
Car ride AGAIN!!!

Matter of fact is I am not greedy enough to dream of another day of being able to sit in a car cos' I thought that car is only meant for his work purposes, that is if he can get the car to do installations.

I did what every girlfriend would do in a car.

Camwhore.Period.

He drove to Serangoon Gardens for lunch. Chomp chomp is not available in the morning so we went to the market diagonally opposite.


Doing his parellel parking.


It's local delights @ Serangoon Gardens.
It is just such a bliss to be alive and be able to eat,right? -sigh- =3



He is actually really very tired...

Moving on...we crossed the TPE..PIE..SLE..whatever lah.

I heartx the blue blue skies.

So IKEA, Tampines is the next stop. I didn't understand why Jason wanted to go there. He just kept saying," Free parking." Lol.


Ikea from driving car's view.

We just spent some time there walking from Ikea to Courts and back to car pooling.


Jason must bully me with this ugly frog puppet cos' he knew I am scare of frogs.

I read in magazine today in the salon, that there's science to prove that's power in having a pet. In a 2003 study, men who suffered heart attackes were more likely to live after 4 years if they owned a dog.
No kidding, word for word. That's stated in a magazine.
So boys...go get a best friend today. Lol!

We headed down to Orchard cos I have to get something done. ;)

Given if it were me, I wouldnt dare to drive to Orchard even if I have the license. You have to twirl and turn, I don't even know where is where even I have been there for a zillionth time.
Ok...maybe it's just me and my bad direction sense.


Pink car spotted! I always tell Jason that our car should be pink. He always shrugged it off with some goosebumps on his arms. Lol!


Jason specifically asked me to bring along my cake list. Needless to say...the very first that I had was the American Cheesecake of Hilton Hotel.

First time @ Hilton Hotel & first to go off the yummy cake list!


Yum,yum,yum! That's $7.50 a slice.


Drinks wise is just a rip off! $10 for a glass of lemon & mango tea EACH? If it isn't a hotel and there's good quality cookies served, I would have scream at myself for ordering!



Hilton's Amercian cheesecake is love~

Back to the car...He said he booked a 9.35pm movie at a certain east cinema. I rolled my eyes saying it must be that lousy Tampines Mall GV lah. How many cinemas are there in the east?
Other than the really lousy and sleazy one at..um...somewhere east.

Before that..of cos' I won't let go of the chance to....
Show you a ghost pic. Hahaa.


To take photos lah.


My eyes widen with surprise when we are nearer to this sight.


Colourful,bright (and so unenviromental friendly) high voltage Downtown East mall.

Call me sua ku cos' I didn't know this place exists. I thought Downtown east is just boring chalet thing.

First time @ Downtown East...Watch movie!!!


Thank you,thank you,thank you.

We had a quick dinner at the so called Hongkong cafe there.


It just wasnt very impressive that that chicken chop fried rice wasn't even mine. My luncheon meat cum sunny side up Nissan noodles tasted worse than what I can whip up at home.


Big faces

We caught the Iron Man at Cathay. Yes, Cathay cinema..new at Downtown East.
Robert D.Jr is just soooooooooo cute & good looking. I wasn't an Iron Man fan. I didn't think he is powerful but just plain rich to design up all those mechanics on his body.
But with Robert D.Jr playing Tony Starks, Iron Man just become desirable. Honestly I am amazed by the kinda technology in the movie. You gotta see how Tony Starks designed his protocol. Cool!
To have that kinda technology...um...maybe at least another 50 years? I dunno a thing about technology.

Our last stop for the day was Pasir Ris beach so you can say I've been to the both ends.

I am actually caught dumb founded whenever my girlfriends ask what was the thing I dislike about my boyfriend.
I feel compelled,actually to bring up a point cos' my mind just went blank when asked about that question.

I can't say I like everything about Jason or I find him perfect. If I have, I wouldn't have go breaking his heart many atimes.

But I don't really have much to complain or dislike about Jason except he is always caught busy.
Sometimes I worry for him cos' he never really rest.
How many guys since a young age can go like this...
"Study, work. Study, soccer. Work,soccer. NS,soccer. Soccer,work. Work, work. Work,date. Date,work. Soccer,work.Work,work."

I know you may have no faint idea what the heck was I typing but that is a typical schedule of his. I always ask him to stop working that much and leave some room for his body to rest.

That 2 days with a car, I reached home at 2am and he reached at least 30 mins after. I can see he is really tired but he never dampen our dates because of that.

To me, a boyfriend who always put you in his priority is so hard to come by and that I am ashamed of what kinda girlfriend I am.
I am not saying I am a bad girlfriend but I am not good enough.

I wanted to finish off that 50 yummiest cakes and he is supporting it with actions with me.
I wanted to paint a princess room and he is doing it with me,if not more of for me.
I wanted to go Hongkong with him and now he is setting aside the money.
I wanted this or that, he will always try to get it done.

He does everything for me,so much so I am practically handicapped without Jason.

I feel lucky. I always did no matter what I've done.

So it may not be the case of there's nothing I dislike about my boyfriend but more of, I don't find myself in a position to complain anything about him.

Back to why he wanted to go Ikea? He thought I could pick something up to decorate my room though his company is more than enough.



Thank you, Jason. You meant the world to me.

(ps: Now this weekend post doesnt end with my face..happy hor? A damn mushy post, I know. But just how many times you pronouced your appreciation for a partner? If you have not, why delay?)
