金老师

最近在追一出台湾偶像剧《爱就宅一起》。

对里面的“一只”印象满深刻的。

然后也刚看了《娱百 -- 杨丞琳恋爱百分百》,才知道原来“一只”叫“金勤”。在现实生活中,他是位老师。

金老师在《娱百》中唱了歌,好好听哦~再加上他好斯文,好有学问的样子!让我对他的印象更加好了。

有种冲动想要看任何有关金老师的节目哦~太可爱了~

找了找有关金老师的资料,哇,原来他小学三年级就开始演戏了哦~ 而且还是成绩很好的学生哦~

維基百科写道:
“金勤小學三年級時曾參與臺視戲劇演出,並陸續在何平執導的《感恩歲月》和金鰲勳執導的《過河小卒》中亮相。國中畢業後,金勤以第一名的成績考入國光藝校,之後又進入國立藝術學院戲劇系、戲劇研究所就讀。金勤在2002年因演出公視電視劇《孽子》裡的小玉一角而受到注目。金勤陸續演出了電影《國士無雙》、《十七歲的天空》、電視劇《弟弟放暑假》以及舞台劇《仲介愛情》,皆獲得好評。在演出的同時,金勤在臺北藝術大學取得了教師資格並逐漸淡出。金勤現任教於新竹市的三民國中,並在八大電視臺的偶像劇中《愛就宅一起》演出。”

最右边的就是金勤咯~

隐形衣服


这就是每个星期天中午和下午在烈日下踏脚车的后果。

肤色越来越黑。

犹如穿了一件隐形的衣服。
What's for dinner?

This is yummy!!!

Thanks Lubby~~~ Muacks~

知人知面不知心

谢谢你那么看得起我,认为我是superwoman,把那么多重要的任务都让我一个人做。

做人,最重要的不就是要有责任感吗?你连最基本,最简单的这一点都做不到。责任感,对你而言是那么重的一个负担吗?

超不爽的。

像你这样把责任推卸给别人的人,不值得我的尊敬。

更让我看不起你。

就如小猪常说的:“熟归熟,该有的尊重还是要有。”更何况我跟你不是很熟。

谢谢你让我看清真正的你。

看来,我要更加小心了。

不然有一天我躺进棺材,也不知道我是怎么死的。

Temptation

Is sumthing I can't resist.

We were supposed to be saving $ and eat at the foodcourt. But when we were on our way to the foodcourt, Lubby saw Kenny Rogers and made some comments. I told him no we must save $ and should go to the foodcourt. But as we were on the 2nd storey, I can't resist the temptation of the chicken, corn, muffin etc and decided that we should go eat Kenny Rogers. So instead of $5 which we can just spent on foodcourt food each pax, we spent 5 times of that on each pax at Kenny Rogers.

After dinner, was walking ard while waiting for Lubby to come back from toilet, this Ang Mo approached me and said that he wanted to show me sumthing amazing. And then he buffer my nail and tada~ my nail is shiny~~ The buffer is supposed to help to make my nails stronger and healthier too. then he apply some oil thing which is supposed to kill some dead skins and den hand lotion. All the ingredients are from the dead sea and the buffer can be changed free of charge in 2 years. He also showed me other products of his shop.

However I did not want to get that set for the nails coz it was expensive to me. Though it can last me for 2 years. But the Ang Mo was very gd in persuading and doing sales and so he gave me offer and discounts over and over again. Finally reaching to an amt which I was comfortable with (which was half of the original price!) He was really persistant and it was hard for me to say no. And that is the reason why I always ignore roadshows coz I know I might be too paiseh to reject any offer. But the price for this is acceptable and I tot I can give it a try and hopefully my nails will be healthy and shiny and pretty. Searched online and realised the 2nd hand set sold online is even more expensive than the price I got it at. So I'm pretty pleased with it. :)

First person

Who is the first person u think of and wanna share your thoughts with when u are feeling happy?

Who is the first person u think of and wanna complain to when u are feeling angry?

Who is the first person u think of and wanna get sayang from when u are feeling down?

Who is the first person u think of and wanna ask for suggestions when u need some opinions?

When was it that Lubby has become the first person I wanna share my joy with?

When was it that Lubby has become the first person I wanna complain my unhappiness to?

When was it that Lubby has become the first person I wanna be with and be in his arm while I cry my heart out?

When was it that Lubby has become the first person I wanna ask for opinions when I need to buy something, go somewhere and do something?

^_^



It has become so natural that whenever I need to make some decision, let it be what I should do when I go to certain places, or if I should buy A or B, or I should or should not get this certain thing, I will want to consult Lubby.

Maybe it’s coz that Lubby is so knowledgeable in almost everything. Or at least I know that he will try to help me get an answer even if he doesn’t know.

And this has me end up being more and more dependant on him.

I know it’s not very gd to be too dependant on someone. Coz that will make me become more and more useless.

But yet this is making me feel secure coz I know I always have someone to turn to whenever I met a problem, need a listening ear or need advises.

Staring

It’s natural for guys to look at girls and it’s natural for girls to look at guys.

But why must some guys just STARE at some gers?

Why must some guys look at gers from head to toes and back to head?

It’s super uncomfortable.

I experience this once in a while. Esp if I’m wearing short skirt, or low cut dress, or simply just clothes with less cloth.

Some guys or man will look at you from head to toes, and then from toes back to head. And if I’m wearing a short skirt, they will look at my legs. If I’m wearing a low cut dress or top, they will look at you know where. And tat makes me super uncomfortable.

Sometimes I will walk away.

Sometimes I will use my bag to cover.

Sometimes I will pretend I nv see.

And what reaction I have will depends on what type of guy he is. Is he an uncle? Is he a yandao? :x

But well I still will try to protect myself from being ‘stare at’ too much. Haha. But I wun wear long sleeve and dress myself up like a mummy just becoz of these guys though.. :P

Why marriage?

Was chatting with my colleagues during lunch today. And we were on the topic of marriage. Then one of my male colleagues said that he wouldn’t want a wedding ceremony at all. It will be just ROM. Being a Christian, he can’t understand and feel the importance of church wedding, unlike another Christian girl-friend of mine. And his rationale is that ‘get it over and done with’. He also feel that marriage is just for the sake of getting together legally, and that’s all. And if he can, he wouldn’t even want to get married. Perhaps just go buy a private house with his gf and then live together. He even felt that we have to spend so much to get married and then next time might get divorce.

He is a typical example of why there are some people out there now who do not want to get married, or only get married at an older age.

Why is there marriage?

To some people, it might be to form a family and carry family line. To some others, it might be so that can buy HDB flats.

So are they really in love with their other half?

And some may say, if I really love my other half and he/she loves me too, we do not have to get married. We can just live together and we will still be happy. What’s there a need to get married?

So why get married? The marriage vow tells us the reason: To have and to hold, from this day forward, for better for worse, for richer for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and to cherish, till death do us part.

Husband and wife are not only couple, but also best friend, buddy, soul mate, bf/gf. And also part of your life. And husband and wife is supposed to be able to accomplish what is being mentioned in the marriage vow.

If there is no marriage, the couple do not need to promise to be there for each other under all circumstances til death. Of coz, there are cases where people get married and yet cannot fulfil these and thus a lot end up divorcing.

To me, I feel that if I’m so in love with this person, and if he is my bf cum buddy cum soul mate cum best friend, I will wanna be with him for every second and every mintue of my life, form a family with him, be with him no matter what happens. Make sure that I’m always there for him and he is always there for me. Be part of my life. And be part of me.

By taking this another step in life, I link myself with another guy from this world, bond myself with another family, and fit in into another social circle.

Not every guy can make a ger wants to be with him for the rest of her life. Not every ger can make a guy wants to spend his life with her.

And it’s even harder to be able to find a couple where they wanna be with each other til the end of time, under all circumstances.

Therefore, when u are able to find someone who wants to take care of you for life, and u are also feeling the same, pls don’t let him/her go. Cherish him/her and show the world that fairy tales do exist. :)

在《娱百》听到了Jolin的新歌。

好听。

又是另一首阿沁的创作哦~

Home -- ECP -- Home

Cycled from home to ECP and back home. For our very first time!!! :)

It was not as far as I thought it will be. It was not as tiring and tough as I thought it will be.

But it was much more fun than I thought it will be.

Thanks Lubby for suggesting to cycle from my home, and to encourage me during the journey there. And it's with him that I'm not that scared to cycle on the road coz I know he will ensure my safety. hehe.

Lucky there is Lubby to help carry my bike down and up the stairs of the underground tunnel to ECP. See how strong my Lubby is? Carry 2 bikes together leh!!!!

See my new cap? Lubby bought for me yst. :)

看到sianz?

那天,熊熊问我,每次和他约会,每次和他见面,不会sian meh?有时我们一整个星期每天都会见面,不会sian meh?

我的回答很坚定,“为什么会sian?当然不会啦!”

互相以前的感情生活,曾有好几次对我的另一半有点厌倦。和对方讲电话、见面、约会都提不起劲儿,甚至有点sian,不想见面。然后就会问自己问什么会这样,那段感情是不是出现了问题?

现在,就算我们一天通好几次的电话,就算我们每天上班时都在网上聊天,就算我们常常约会,就算我们每天都见面,我还是会想着熊熊,我还是很想见他,我还是想要和他一起共度生命的每一秒。

虽然有时我们会斗嘴,虽然有时我会发脾气,虽然有时我不喜欢他“lecture”我,虽然有时我们会吵架,但是我们都会把问题解决,不把问题带到明天。

和他见面时,一点都不会sian。没有和他见面时,有时反而会觉得sian。

这就是真正的爱情吗?这就是真正的不能没有对方吗?

每次想到他都会觉得很甜蜜,嘴角也会不自觉地上扬,全身好像发光似的。

对他的思念,真的那么多。

对他的爱,也真的那么深。

爱与恨

认识我的人,应该都知道我超级喜欢小孩子。

看到小孩子,我会不自觉地微笑。

看到小孩子,我会不自觉地上前跟他们玩。

但是,我无法接受一整群小孩子不停地吵闹、尖叫。

这一整个星期是学校假期,午餐时间到Tampines Mall和Century Square都是满满的人群。走到哪里,都能看到小朋友,听到他们讲话,看到他们玩闹。

今天午餐时间到邮政局也看到不少小孩子,吵到要命。

我的头,也因为这小小孩的尖叫而痛了起来。

Dream Holiday

Many of my friends have travelled to Australia for holiday and told me how relaxing and fun it was.

But I still haven’t got any chance to visit this beautiful country.

Australia is on top of the list of places I would love to visit. And therefore when I heard that Nuffnang is having this ‘Win a Holiday to Australia’ contest, without hesitation I told myself that I’m going to give it a try.

And that explains this blog entry I have.

Dear Australia
I have heard about you since young
I have longed to visit you since young
But I have yet to see the beautiful you till now

Dear Australia
I remember how sad I was
When I was unable to follow my parents to visit you
I remember how disappointed I was
When my dad bought kangaroo and koala soft toys from you for my brothers
Yet nothing for me

Dear Australia
I wanted to visit you last year
But was cancelled due to budget constraints
I wanted to visit you this year
But was cancelled due to budget issues, again

Dear Australia
When can I see the amazing you?
When can I feel the attractive you?
When can I experience the lovely you?

Dear Australia
I have heard about your friend
I have seen pictures of your friend
And I have a massage for your friend, Tasmania

Dear Tasmania
I would like to visit King Island
To suntan on the long empty beaches
To breathe in the fresh clean air
And to visit the 6,800-hectare Lavinia Nature Reserve in the North-East

Dear Tasmania
I want to explore the largest Newdegate Cave
I want to kayak and be insipried by the nature and beautiful surroundings
I want to explore the cathedral-like forests in a four-wheel-drive
And feel the spray in my face through the exciting high-speed jet boats trips

Dear Tasmania
Getting close to the nature by horse
Spotting seals, dolphins and albatross on a rive cruise
Or simply watching the wombat and Tasmania devil in the forest
Are things that I am looking forward to

Dear Tasmania
Can you hear me?
Can you feel the love I have for you?
Can you see the all-ready-to-fly me?
Can my dreams come true?

Dear Tasmania
Please wait for me
I am sure that one day
I will be able to shout
“Tasmania, here I come!”

姐弟

今天午餐时间,看到一个姐姐和弟弟的互动,让我想到了以前的我和我的弟弟。

那位小妹妹应该只不过是小四、小五左右,然后弟弟是3岁左右。弟弟要吃姐姐的棒棒糖。姐姐把棒棒糖给弟弟吃,弟弟坐在姐姐旁边。弟弟吃了两口,就伸了棒棒糖给姐姐吃。然后又放进自己的嘴巴,接着又拿出来请姐姐吃。

好可爱、好温馨的画面。

想到了以前我是如何照顾我的弟弟,如何喂他喝奶、吃粥,和他玩。还记得每次他都会来我的房间和我一起听933,然后一起唱歌。弟弟唱歌时还会假假拿着麦克风,似模似样地唱起歌来。脸部表情以及台风一点也不会少。

然后,我们还会一起看着歌词,一起唱歌。虽然弟弟年级那么小,根本看不懂任何的中文字,但是就是因为这样唱啊唱,看啊看,他小小年纪就已经懂得很多中文字了。

可能是因为这样,所以他现在是学校合唱团团员吧!

好怀念那时候的我们。
讲华语

讲华语运动已经踏入第30年头了,虽然我从来都没有注意过这项运动,但是这并不代表我不赞同。认识我的人,都知道我是一个很“华语”的人,所以我当然也支持这项运动啦。

很多华人,尤其是较年轻、较年幼的一代,更觉得没什么必要讲华语。毕竟在学校里,除了华文,其他的科目都是以英语教的。英语不及格,在学业上就会有不同的阻碍。但是华文不及格,并没有什么大问题。更何况新加坡是一个多元种族的国家,英文也是四大种族沟通的桥梁。因此,大多数人都认为英语是更为重要的。

其实,家庭在这面的影响力是很大的。小孩子的学习能力是很强的,如果他们从小就在讲华语的环境下长大,自然而然的他们也会受到影响而开始讲华语。

当然,父母的熏陶也是关键之一。如果父母都认为华文不重要,那么孩子不喜欢、不重视华文的机会也会相对地提高。孩子也可能会对华文不感兴趣,那要他们讲华语,在华文科目考到好成绩也就更加困难了。

身为华人,就应该讲华语、懂华文。

所以,我一定会和我以后的孩子说华语和广东话。英语方面就留给我的老公吧。以后,从我知道自己怀孕的那一秒起,我就会和腹中的小孩说华语和广东话。生下来后,也会以这两种语言和他沟通,当然也会让妈咪和爸爸以广东话和他沟通。那么,至少他不会只在未来老公和老公的英语家庭环境下长大,他也可以接触到华语和广东话。

过去,现在与未来

有时候,要完完全全接受你最爱的人的过去,真不简单。

他对你越重要,他的过去也许对你的影响也许就更大。

每次都说只要看现在和未来,过去已经是过去,无法改变,就不要那么介意。

说来容易,做起来,难。

很难。

我知道你的过去已经是过去,不能改变。但是,我不知道要如何去接受。

我讨厌自私的我,为什么就是想要把你占为己有,为什么就是不能接受她曾经也拥有过你。

为什么她曾经和你有过一段过去?

为什么她曾经是你生命的一部分?

为什么她曾经与你、你的家人、你的朋友那么要好?

为什么她曾经让你有过他如人生另一个阶段的念头?

为什么你曾经就要和她共度一生?

为什么你们的曾经是那么长的一段时间?

而现在的我,得到的,有她曾有过的那么多吗?

或者比她还要多?

每次都会因为这些无聊的东西搞到自己哭了又哭。

不值得。

我知道我不应该那么想。我知道我有的是你的现在和未来,就已经足够了。但是,我真的不能控制我的情绪。

我讨厌这样的我。

为什么我要为了这些东西而搞到自己那么的累。

*PS 请大家不要留言说叫我往前看,不要看过去。我都知道!我就只想发泄发泄我难过的情绪而已。所以,I will very much appreciate if大家不要教我怎么做ok?谢了。
雨中踏脚车

应该是有三个星期到一个月没有踏脚车了。

今天一到达ECP就开始下雨,并且越下越大。

就这样,我们在雨中踏脚车。

不知道是因为下雨,还是因为太久没有踏脚车,还是其他原因,今天的我特别累。

踏完了12公里,我的双脚就像是不属于我的了。

我的体格是不是越来越差了呢?

要好好锻炼一下,不然到了越南trekking就有困难了。

And since the UOB lady's card promotion is still on, til this Sunday, I got my top with 20% off...

It has been a long time since I spent so much money over such a short period of time...

Is there sumthing wrong with me???

Am I under so much stress that I need retail therapy???

女人的钱,容易赚

即使是在经济不景气的现在,女人的钱,还是最容易赚的。

一个午餐的时间,我花了$154。

买了一双鞋(就是昨天reserve的那一双)。

看到了一个Elle的手提袋,美美!不只我说好看哦,就连和我一起逛街的同事也赞同哦~而且,还有30% off!超级划算的啊!然后也买了一双leggings(比较厚的丝袜)。 明明说好了不再花钱,却还是经不起诱惑。

但是,真的好喜欢我的战利品哦!

Shopping... Again

After my event this morning, join my colleageus for a walk at TM during lunch time before heading back to office.

As my colleague was looking at some shoes and trying them on, the initially-didn't-have-any-intention-of-buying-shoes me went to try on a pair and like it immediately.

For those who know me and who 'observe' me well, coz most of the time I wear skirt or dress, and hardly wear pants or formal wear, therefore most of my footwear are heels. And also because usually when I wear shoes with heels, my toes and the back of my feet will hurt coz of the shoes. However as I tried on the brand A shoes with heels today, the leather was very comfortable and I just feel like buying them.

As there will be private sales tomorrow, there will be 10% + 10% off for members, and since another colleague of mine is a member, we have reserved our shoes todae and will be going back to collect and pay tomorrow.

Although I've told myself not to spend anymore this mth as I have already spent a lot over the last wkend, but I just can't resist the temptation. Moreover, the pair of shoes I'm getting is something different from those I already have at home.

And somemore, tomorrow is pay day!!!!!

And what's $40 compare to $1.3k?? wahahaha.. :x

Cheerleading

Did a simple thingy for Lubby. When study til sianz liao can take out and 'play' a while. Hope this can give him some motivation while studying for tests and exams. Jia you Lubby!!

$400 Saturday

Went to cut my hair this morning. Did treatment as well as highlighting too. My hair stylist said that the in colour for this year is red and blue. And thus my hair is highlighted red!! My hair doesn't look that red in the photos, it looks redder when under the sun!
Went shopping in the evening. Saw this bag at Isetan and it was on sales! As we have already seen this design some time back and like it alot, and since it is on offer now, I bought a sling bag of this cute design. Cute!!!
Use UOB lady's card to purchase any female apparel and enjoy 20% off! And thus, I bought this 3/4 from Adidas. Very nice material and nice colour right! Can wear it as casual wear, and also for my Vietnam trip when I go trekking!!!
As I do not have any decent foodwear for trekking, (my sportshoes get wet when it rains. And if I step into the mud, my socks will be soaked in mud too.) and world of sports is having 10% off, mem additional 15% off (lubby is mem), I bought my 1st ever trekking shoes.

All in all, after spending $120 on 3 dresses yesterday, I spent abt $400 today! Lucky got bonus, if not... well I dun think i will be spending so much at one go if there is no bonus anyway.
Food
Mummy said that my body is too weak. Keep falling sick etc. Thus every month i will have to drink 6 bottles of birdnest with empty stomach every morning. Yum~~

Guess what is this?

It is actually... Kiwi Berry!!!

See how small it is? Same size as a 1 dollar coin! It taste just like kiwi. The only difference is that u can't eat the hairy skin of kiwi but u can eat the smooth skin of kiwi berry~ And it's not cheap huh.. abt $3 for 18 kiwi berries.

Good website for all the guys!

Saw this from kenny sia blog...

If you are a guy and if you have a gf, this website will be ur best buddy!

责任

昨晚看了Marley & Me,有相当多的感触。

看着Marley年老而离开,虽然我没有宠物,而且也不是爱狗之人,但是心里还是抽痛,也留下了眼泪。

是因为我害怕那么大的责任,所以从来都不想要养宠物吗?是因为我害怕看到他年老或生病而死去,所以不敢养宠物吗?

女主角说了一些话,让我想了很多。

她说有了家庭,有了孩子,生活完完全全变了个样,责任也完完全全不同了。有了家庭、孩子,责任是相对的提高了。

有谁不知道有了自己的小家庭后,责任一定会变得更大?但是,那责任是否会大得连自己也无法想象?那责任是否会让我们喘不过气来?那责任是否会变成压力呢?

我一直向往着拥有自己小小家庭的那一天。和心爱的人组织一个家庭,是多么的美好啊。我也认为自己可以承担那责任,尽全力做位好太太、好妈妈。但是,当一切真的发生,我真的能够负担起那责任吗?到时我会感到害怕吗?会感到压力的存在吗?

很多时候,我们会说只要有个能够理解并支持我们的另一半,问题都能解决的。只要我们坚持到底,一定能够看到彩虹。

那是我们希望的吧。也许在现实中会不一样?我们毕竟都是有血有肉的人类,当我们遇到挫折、困难、压力,我们的想法或行为是会变得连自己也无法想象或接受的。

我一直都认为自己已经准备好了。但是,是真的吗?

我们的未来,没有人能够告诉我们。但是若我们不试一试,有责么知道自己办不到呢?未来是未知数,也许并不是想象的那么复杂、那么恐怖。也许它会是那么的美丽呢?

不要因为害怕我们看不到的东西而裹足不前,我们应该以开朗与positive的心态来面对未来。

放手一博吧!

It’s hard to have colleagues cum friends…

And I’m happy that I have!

Before I started working, I always hear people telling me that职场如战场, colleagues will try to kill one another and it’s very tough and rare to have colleagues who are your friends too.

Well, I dunno how u guys are going to define the word friend and whether some of my colleagues do regard me as a friend. But well I’m happy and lucky to have colleagues cum friends in my company. I guess u all should know who u are. :P

When I’m happy, they are there to share the joy with me.

When I’m down, they are there to console me.

When I’m angry, they are there to 为我打抱不平.

We work together. We play together. We eat together. We travel together.

And I enjoy their company.

Thank you for making my working life more colourful and cheerful.

----------------

Went to have a buffet dinner at Swissotel Merchant Court last night with some of my colleagues cum friends. The last time I went was like a few years back and all I can remember abt the place is durian paste!!!

And of coz, I had that for dessert yst despite my already super full stomach. However, I do not find the durian paste tat yummy alr. The other time I ate a few bowls of tat and I only had ¾ bowl last night. Felt that the paste was too watery and not much durian taste. Was it because that I was expecting more since the memory I had is very nice durian paste. Or was it because I had the durian puff from Goodwood Park Hotel the day b4 and Goodwood Park Hotel durian puff is the best!! Every mouth u eat, u can taste the meat of durian. It’s 真才实料and nv 偷工减料. It’s super!!!

Anyway the food there is alrite, but I guess we, or at least some of us, puts the company we have prior to the food we are eating. It was a happy and fun dinner.

Maybe we should have more of such gathering? Not necessarily buffet dinner everytime, but it could be just some dinner at some place? It’s a good networking and bonding session! (oh my, why am I like treating our gathering like an event and meeting the objectives of ABC?)

申请房子

我终于明白为什么新加坡男生会不够浪漫,常常以“申请房子”来当作向女朋友求婚的“理由”。

一般年轻的情侣都会apply for BTO flats。而BTO的坏处就是等等等。首先,先要等喜欢的地点。然后,就要等bidding。如果一次成功,那就恭喜恭喜。如果不成功,那么只好再等喜欢的地点,然后再次尝试bid for it。希望会成功,不然又要从头开始了。Bid 到喜欢的房子后,就是等好几年,大概3年左右吧,才能真正拥有自己的房子。之后又是等等等,房子还得装修啊!

所以啊,就因为这样的制度,新加坡男生不得不问女朋友,“我们申请房子好吗?”

如果男生先向女友求婚,然后再去申请房子。幸运的话,很快就能等到适合的地点,那么大概3年多内就能组织自己的家庭。如果不那么幸运,可能要等上4、5 年也不一定。

如果男生先和女生申请房子,那么女生就知道男友一定会在3年内向自己求婚。好像没什么惊喜hor?

结婚后,不是不可以和in laws一起住,但是若得住上好几年,那么若要有小宝宝,就有些困难了。除非你的in laws是住大洋房,那么你就不怕自己的小家庭“妨碍”或“侵入”in laws一家。

不然,情侣也可以去买resales啦。只不过会比较贵,也可能比较旧。若要新房子,并且不希望自己的经济有那么大的负担,就得申请BTO了。

所以啊,不是说新加坡人不想结婚,也许是房子的问题吧!再说,女生可能也不能太过责备男友求婚太老套,用“申请房子”当借口,因为那是在新加坡结婚必经的一个阶段。而且也许是因为男生想要快点和你组织家庭才会想要快点申请房子,不必等那么久吧!
Shopping list

1. external harddisk for my house
2. hair dryer – mine is a bit weak.. wanna get sumthing more powerful, maybe like those type hair stylists use in saloons?
3. gym bag – for exercise purpose, and also sumtimes go for short getaway.
4. bed – been wanting to change my bed for very long already. Though like what YT said, buy new one use onli for a few years, but then maybe should change it and even if I really get married after a few years, my brother can still use my bed?
5. watch – wanna get one nice and elegant one for work purpose. If have ‘bling bling’ will be best.
6. tshirts – need tshirts, esp for my Hanoi trip in April.
7. bags – for normal usage or work purpose.

And I’ve been thinking and thinking and thinking over this issue for the past few days.

Should I…
1. spend 1.5k and buy a LV bag which can last a lifetime, can be used for any occasion, whether to work, or for casual usage. It will never be outdated and it is a lifetime investment as the price of the bag will only go up and not down.
2. use that 1.5k and buy a few branded-yet-not-so-branded-not-so-expensive bags? Like Coach, Braun Buffel, Agnes B etc.

I am so tempted to buy the LV bag after seeing YT buy her LV wallet. (CONGRATS YT FOR GETTING YOUR FIRST LV PRODUCT! MORE TO COME YA?) I am so tempted after seeing one of my fren got a new LV bag. I am so tempted after seeing more and more ppl on the street are carrying LV bags, as if everyone is becoming so rich as LV bags are getting more expensive and not cheaper leh. (BTW, do LV bags last long? Will it still be in gd shape after using it for years?)

But I am also feeling a bit too 奢侈to spend so much on a bag. And if I ever have the first one, there will be a 2nd, 3rd, 4th etc to come. And it is so not –me to buy such a bag leh.

I can use that amount of money and buy a few not so branded bags. And I can have different patterns of bags which I can switch and use for different days and purpose. Rather than using the same LV bag for all days.

How how how… I’m so confused and not sure what to do.

There is an angel and a devil arguing and fighting above my head now!!!

Should I…

1. Go to Saloon A which I have been to, layer and highlight my hair. Reason I choose Saloon A is coz the hairstylist’s cutting skill is quite good and hair can maintain for quite long time. But will my hair become curly, frizzy and messy after the hair cut as my rebonding was done half a year ago alr. But maybe if is really too messy I will go Saloon B for rebonding as Saloon A rebonding is expensive!

2. Go to Saloon B and cut my hair short, above shoulder. Do rebonding as well. But will tat hurt my hair coz I just rebounded half a year ago. And I have not been to Saloon B, it will be a saloon where frens have tried and feel dat rebonding is gd and cheap.

I need advise~

Happy Wednesday

After work met Lubby for dinner. He came to fetch me as we were eating in the east. As we were sitting in the car, Lubby setting his GPS, me talking to him, and suddenly I saw a rainbow from his side mirror!

And then I got down of the car and went to take photo of it! (realised that there were many others standing at that area taking photos of the rainbow as well.) And it is a FULL rainbow. Which means both ends of the rainbow are clearly seen! I think it's the first time I see a FULL rainbow. Most of the times we only are able to see one end of the rainbow and somehow it would be cut off.

While we were on the way, I looked out of the window and guess wat I saw? There were TWO rainbows!! Below the bigger rainbow, there was another smaller rainbow! And the smaller one is complete with 2 ends, just like the big one! But too bad we were driving past and then in the other direction and thus I was not able to take photo of the TWO rainbows together. But it was really VERY beautiful.

We had dinner at this place along East Coast Road which I have been wanting to try for a long time, after reading reviews on newspapers.

It was a small cafe with nice drawings on the walls. Cosy and comfortable. Heard that the ribs is good and thus ordered that. And it is really good. We also ordered suasage with rosti which was pretty yummy as well. The mudpie for our dessert was nice! Although it has some coffee taste, and though I do not take coffee, I found the mudpie delicious. And although I was very full already, I could still a lot of the mudpie. Some mudpies outside are so sweet that after eating half the piece, u feel so 'sick' of it and do not want to finish it. But this mudpie do not give me such feeling. Yum Yum.


And we received a $10 voucher for the next visit. Maybe can go again another time~ :)

Worried

I was very worried last night.

Couldn't slp. Keep waking up.

And I am still very worried now.

I feel so useless, not being able to help at all.

And instead of helping, I just cause u to be even more worried, for me.

And I'm the cause of all these.

I'm so sorry.

Dear God, pls help him.

Morning Exercise


The blk next to mine is undergoing upgrading.

And this morning while I was looking out of the window, I was surprised with somethings I saw at the 'containers'/ area that the workers are staying.

The group of workers were led by another guy, which I supposed might be the supervisor coz he wore differently from the rest, to do some stretching exercise and push ups.

I was pretty surprised that they actually have such activities in the morning. I wonder do they do this every morning before starting work.

I feel that this is actually very good. By doing exercise, the workers are 'ensured' to be 'warmed up' and 'wake up totally' if they were still half asleep.

Perhaps some of the offices should do so in the morning before everyone start work. Not only can it bond the people together, it can also help to wake everyone up. And of coz, help us to lead a healthy lifestyle!

Our 1st Valentine’s Day

Was a super duper happy and interesting one~ ^_^

Went over to lubby’s house before lunch first. The lazy lubby actually drove down to Bishan MRT to pick me up while he can actually walk from his house which will take only 10min. Lazy lubby. But I knew he also didn’t want me to walk. :P

Lubby cooked a very simple lunch for me. Instant noodles with luncheon meat. Though is simple but still yummy~

And I got a card made by lubby!!! Though it’s just a simple card made using powerpoint, but the msg inside is nice and touching. And it’s the 1st ever card I received from lubby!! Hehe. Thanks lubby~

Nua-ed ard for some time. He played his game while I played my DS. He surfed his net while I watched my drama. Then we started to prepare for our dinner!

After packing all the stuff, we proceed to East Coast Park.

Wanted to cycle at first, and I have been looking forward to that, but we had lots of things to carry and settle and thus decided not to cycle already. =( Anyway when we reached ECP, we found a nice quiet spot and set up our little ‘home’! We just bought the tent from Carrefour the day before and it was nice!!! We can put all our belongings inside and rest inside when we feel like it.

And the first activity when we reached ECP was to fly a kite! I couldn’t remember when was the last time I flew a kite. Was it when I was very young? Or did I even fly a kite before? Anyway lubby was so li hai, he got the kite up in the sky sooo fast. And then he let me try and before we knew it, the kite start dropping down and den it got stuck in the tree!! I am so lousy.. =( Lubby tried to pull it out but it was not successful. He said we got to pull and it will spoil. No choice. It’s all my fault. And then the next moment, the kite is up in the sky again! Lubby is so li hai!!!! And when the kite was up in the sky again, another couple who was flying kite near us ‘cheered’. So cute. Haha. And then I don’t really dare to move or wat when flying the kite. I just stood there and stare at the kite. But it was quite tiring looking up into the sky and stared at it. Haha. So after sometime, we kept the kite and rested for a while.

And then it’s BBQ time!! It’s the first time I tried out 2 pax BBQ. And it was fun!!! Well maybe coz lubby is doing all the job? :x As the wind was very strong, the fire was started very easily and quickly. And then we started to BBQ our prepared food. We had chicken wings, nuggets, sausages, crabmeats, corns, banana with chocolate and mashmallow~ Most of the time, lubby was the one doing the BBQ and I was the one feeding him and myself. Haha. And because the BBQ pit was a bit too near to the grass and I think the stand was not very good, the patch of grass below the mini BBQ pit was burnt. :x

And I guessed more and more couples like the idea of 2 pax BBQ coz besides our tent yst, we could see a few more couples having mini BBQ. And lubby was commenting that those runners or cyclist at ECP yst must be cursing all the couples for polluting the air. One of the reasons that they went to ECP to exercise might be coz of the fresh air and there we were polluting the air. Haha.

After the BBQ both of us were sooo full. Packed our stuff and off we go into our little ‘home’. It was really nice to have the tent. We can have our 二人世界 there and as the weather was quite nice yst it was not that hot. The sky was also quite clear and just by lying in the tent with our heads near to the ‘door’ we were able to count the stars in the sky. And I think we were quite noisy coz we chatted for quite some time and laughed quite loud. Haha. Apologies to the other tents near us for disturbing other’s二人世界.

This year’s valentine’s day is really special. For the past years, my valentine’s days were always spent in town, catching a movie and having dinner. But this year it was something new and different. I also requested lubby not to get any flowers for me this year coz I feel that it’s a waste of money to get flowers on valentine’s day.

I don’t know why is there a change in my mindset and thinking. I used to feel that valentine’s day is so important that I must have flowers and go to some restaurants for dinner. But this year I just want a simple and different valentine’s day instead. And I do not feel valentine’s day as impt as last time. To me, it just become another normal day where I can spend my time with my love one. Is it because I am so happy with lubby everyday that it really seems like valentine’s day to me everyday? Is it because I’m just glad that I can spend my day with lubby? Is it because I have matured and thus thinking changed?

I have never believed in people saying that ‘everyday is vday’. But now I fully understand why these people will say this.

Thanks for spending a wonderful valentine’s day and Saturday with me lubby. I had fun and enjoyed myself to the maximum.

And like what I wrote in the card I gave you, everytime we touch, everytime we hug, everytime we kiss and everytime we see each other, I still feel as if it’s our first time. I treasure this feeling and hope this feeling will be with me forever.

Ai you~ ^_^

I’m such a failure

学车要一年了,考车考了三次,竟然还会犯一些从没犯过的stupid mistakes。

我真的很失败。

第一次考车就败在slope上。而今天的我,竟然又在slope上犯了笨蛋才会犯的错误。我竟然没有put down my handbrake totally。就这样在slope上死了两次车。还好当车往后退时,我立刻踩brake,不然一定immediate failure again。我真的不明白为什么我从来没有有过关于handbrake没有放到完的问题,而今天考车却竟然发生了。

在narrow course时,如果我check好好,看好好marking,出去时看好好,那就不会mount kerb,就不会immediate failure!学车这么久,就只有mount kerb一次,而且还是很久前的,为什么今天又会发生!

在路上和其他方面,今天的表现比上两次都好多了。如果没有immediate failure,我就能拿到我的驾驶执照了!

又能怪谁?只能怪自己。

其实,我不是因为没有考到执照而伤心。其实,我也并没有说一定要在多久内考到执照。

我只是很气自己。为什么每次考试都会有新问题!而且还是一切从未发生过的stupid到不能再stupid的问题!

为什么我那么笨!


由或者是老天爷觉得我还不是时候拿到驾照?所以今天让我今天一早起床就有些头痛,眼睛很累,然后考车前学车时肚子痛个不停,还在考车前拉肚子。

无论如何,只希望下一次在尝试时,不会再出现种种问题了。

农历新年的最后三天

我,过得很开心、很充实。

星期六和一班同事一起唱k去。上次retreat时已经和其中一些唱过歌,但这次我们有了其他的新成员。我们到了Bugis的Top 1唱了7个小时的歌,却好像不大够。那里的设备还不错,可以调不同的灯效,还可以有"smoke",就像是自己的演唱会一样。但是也许这是我们第一次唱k,所以并不是很疯狂,好想念大学时期常常去唱k,唱到站在椅子上跳舞的时光。不知道这样的“疯狂行为”能否再次出现呢?

唱完k后,我们受邀到了Irene的家。我们到达时有好几位同事已经到了,而一进去就看到了一班小公主。真的太太太可爱了~尤其是Celest还会来找我们玩,还和我hi five。她们就在那里抢抢玩具、跳跳舞、吃吃东西、喝喝水、唱唱歌等,就像是带给我们一场又一场的表演。看着这群小公主,本来肚子饿的我只随便吃了些东西,就迫不及待地和她们玩了起来。说真的,很喜欢Celest。从第一次看到她,就觉得她是个很可爱、很好玩、很开心的宝宝。和她一起玩耍,并不会觉得累,反而觉得时间过得特别的快。当我们要离开时,她还想要跟着我们走。就连爸爸妈妈关上大门她也没有哭闹,太可爱了~而那天也有唯一一位小王子到了Irene的家,和其他的小公主一起玩。可是这位小王子似乎有些害羞,也许是年纪最小的缘故吧。但是当他终于warmed up时,却是要回家了。而那时的他竟然哭了,好可爱~

要感谢熊熊特地来载我们回家,让我们省下时间和搭的士的钱。:)

星期天到了观音庙拜拜,希望观音菩萨能够保佑我靠车顺利。然后和熊熊到了army market吃午餐。那里的牛肉米粉不错哦~然后也吃了好久没吃的waffle~

傍晚时分,我们和starries到了vivo city看The Curious Case of Benjamin Button。好长的一部戏哦~很久前已经听说这部电影了,然后也决定要看。这部戏的题材是相当不错,和普通的电影很不一样。但是我还是觉得有点太draggy了。如果缩短些,可能会比较好吧!但是还是部不错的电影啦。

看完戏后已经是8点多了,本来想要到Liang Court吃晚餐,但是有点太晚了,就随便在Harbour Frt的食阁吃了,填饱肚子就算了。但是没想到那里的食物也太难吃了吧!本来就已经不是很饿,吃了一口后就更加没有胃口了。

因为今天(星期一)是元宵节,而我和熊熊无法见面,所以昨天回家前便去买了汤圆和他一起吃,提早庆祝元宵。

而今天我们SA Dept到了Kenko享用了1个小时的Hand, foot and shoulder massage。这是我第一次做脚地按摩,开始时很紧张,害怕会很痒很痛,但是没想到还蛮不错的,并没有想象中那么恐怖。当然还是会痒会痛,但是还可以忍。可是hand and shoulder massage对我而言就不一样了。好痛啊!我知道一路以来我的肩膀和背部的筋都相当的紧,所以每次按下去都会很痛,但是今天的按摩真的是让我忍啊忍。那位帮我按摩的小姐也告诉我我的肩膀很紧,应该要多多去按摩。而现在的我还是感觉到我的肩膀和背部有点酸痛。而当我往被按摩的部位按下去,还是会觉得痛啊!所以,我是应该常常去按摩以便让自己的筋放松吗?

接着我们到了swensens享用“午餐”。我们叫了好多样食物哦,好饱哦~ 可是也玩得相当开心。:)

就这样我度过了今天农历新年的最后三天。

开心~

Are You Proud of Your Other Half?

Yes I am.

Why?

Because my lubby is a caring bf. He cares for me every minute every second. No I’m not exaggerating. When I’m sick, he is worried for me. He will go and visit me and if necessary bring me to the doc. Even when I’m not sick, he still cares for me. Care for my mental, physical and emotional health. He tries his best to take care of me, though at times he still ask if I wanna drink cold drink or eat ice cream or chocolate when I’m having a sore throat etc. :P When I’m out til late, or whenever he can, he will try to fetch me to the place or back home, even if it means that he will have to drive all the way down just to send me home (journey may onli be 10min) and after that he will go home.

Because my lubby is a gentle man. Don’t see my lubby big big like teddy bear, he is very gentle ok. He won’t force me to do things I dun like. He won’t exert any force on me like pulling me or wat, because he noes dat might break my arms? Haha. Or squashed me into pieces?

Because my lubby is a handy man. He knows a lot of things. He knows abt what med to take for wat sickness. He knows how to fix electrical appliances. He knows how to DIY things. He knows how to clean and wash the aircon. He knows how to fix almost all computer problems. He knows so much abt bicycle.

Because my lubby is a cook. Yes he can definitely cook better than me. Nowadays it’s hard to find guys who can cook and willing to cook hor? My lubby is one. Fortunate me. I just have to open my mouth and “order” and if he knows how to cook, he will cook for me.

Because my lubby knows how to say the 3 magic words. There are some guys who do not say those 3 magic words unless on special occasions like proposal or when the girl asks for it. But my lubby says it often. Yah too often not very good but I like to hear too ma. Hehe.

Because my lubby is patient with me. I’m quite hot temper at times and I will throw temper at him. But he always manage to tok to me, explain to me, make me understand and then we will be ok after tat. Though sumtimes I still wish for more sayang la.. :P

Because my lubby is humorous. If you interact with my lubby more, if u know him well enuff, then u will find him lame and funny at times. And that makes our lives more interesting and happy.

Because my lubby does well in his job, and at least he is doing his very best. His boss should be able to see it. He is given work that is not meant to be within his job scope, he helped ppl to clear shit everytime, and he is doing much much better than a vase who only noe how to leave shit for ppl to clear and yet getting so high pay. Hope his boss appreciates his hard work and give him more $$ and better career path.

Because……

Because my lubby is my lubby. ^_^

I’m proud to have u as my other half, how abt u? :P

发啊~

明天是一千万红包toto的开彩日。

这几天到处的投注站都排长龙,就连下午3、4点的时间都是长长的人龙。

本来想要碰碰运气,但是太多人了,没有办法排队。

今天上course回家,经过楼下的投注站,发现没有人龙,便立刻打电话给熊熊问他要不要买个运气。

由于我对多多、4D等都不怎么会,所以不知道要怎么买。而熊熊也是半桶水,结果他得问他的同事。

等我到了柜台时,告诉那位小姐说我要20 quick pick,她问我“五毛钱的啊?”当时我的脑袋有些blur blur,但记得熊熊又跟我说过是五毛钱六个号码,就对那位小姐点点头,然后她可能也觉得我不大明白,就问我你要买多少钱。还好熊熊有告诉我总共多少钱,我总算能告诉她一个答案。

然后,可能是小姐看到我“小妹妹”blur blur的,好“骗”,就问我要不要买一个红包,里面包括一张quick pick system 7和一张大彩。然后我也不大明白,但是既然是碰个运气,就说ok买了下来。

huat ar!!!!!

希望明天能够有个好运气,让我中个奖~
