掩人耳目

2012-02-08T23:45:00.003+08:00

我曾經那麼相信你一直都會在。

曾經。

跟你借的幸福

公園的椅子　零亂的影子　還給你你家的鑰匙

不想聽解釋　愛怎能解釋　你我就到此為止

時間的杯子　滿滿的心事　愛一點一滴的流失

就算我固執　就算你堅持　這份愛也難挽回頹勢

昨天　跟你借的幸福　抱歉我有不能還你的苦

看著愛在手心留的紋路　依舊是清清楚楚

昨天　跟你借的幸福　是今天以後的回顧

說忘記只是掩人耳目　我在人潮中漸漸失速

譁笑的夜色我們的故事關上了門我的心　我的耳朵　只聽見下雨聲 

秘密。

2012-02-07T02:46:00.001+08:00

因為你不是我；
你不明白、不懂、不諒解。

但是。

謝謝你；
聽我說、聽我哭、聽我分享。

可能；
我們想法差異太大，沒有共識吧。
你注定來匆匆去也匆匆。

Uncontrollable

The unspoken words are the most powerful ones.

So, I've been foolish time and again. Trusting and believing what I shouldn't have. Thinking about what some people perceive as hopeless. I couldn't help. I need faith and I needed to know what I'm holding on to is true.

How many times have I cried over this already. How many times? You make me have to do it again. I should have known better. I had to be foolish yet again.

I am incomplete. But I give it all. Something I thought was mutual. I had to be wrong. I had to, fucking fuck this up.

因為我不知道下一輩子還是否能遇見你所以我今生才會那麼努力把最好的給你愛你都變成傷害你我們的愛快要窒息不是故意只是太愛你

總是學不會再聰明一點
記得自我保護必要時候講些善意謊言
總是學不會真愛也有現實面
不是誰情願就能夠解決

總是愛的太逞強怎麼你竟讓我不能忘不能放痛還想
愛不會留下太容易療的傷

Empty

2012-01-06T10:13:00.002+08:00

I wished my life have lesser what ifs.
I wished I could smile when I reminisce memories.
I wished I need not listen to songs and feel empty.
I wished things were somehow different.
I wished I am not who I am now.
I wish to be happier.

Birthday

2011-11-15T02:52:00.001+08:00

Spent my awesomest birthday with my little family. Had best tasting ramen at Ippudo and had my fave drink KOI and dearest bought an iPhone 4S for me. :)

I am still figuring out this iPhone thing, had been a Blackberry user for more than 3 years. Now that I've jumped ship, I still miss typing messages on a Qwerty keypad. Well, I am more thankful for iPhone's speed, my laopok Blackberry kills my patience.

Pre-wedding photoshoot

2011-10-24T00:45:00.001+08:00

I did my pre-wedding photoshoot and wedding reception. Finally did all these. Been in the preps for super long. Glad everything's over! Though there are quite some stuffs I would do otherwise, I pretty much enjoy everything. :)

Sharing just 2 photos of my photoshoot. ♥

My favourite jumpshot. Looks really funny!

Awesome Kaykay with us. :)

This is life

2011-09-12T00:06:00.003+08:00

There's a million and one things I'm wishing I could do, right away.

Go on a holiday trip to Taiwan or Hong Kong. Or even just Bintan or Phuket.
Get a new laptop. Current one served me well for years, performing badly recently.
A flat/landed/mansion/castle to drop from the sky right now.Else, Toto winning ticket please.
Buy more stuffs for Kayla. I feel guilty for not having the financial flexibility on this.
Get myself a new and better skincare regime. Face is looking at its worst now.
Decide if I should send my girl to childcare centre. Else it's gonna be just kindergarten.
If she goes childcare centre, I'd need my career started. Worklife all over again.
etc.

There's so much to worry for, I guess that explains the massive breakout.
Wedding banquet is just 28 days more. I've a zillion more stuffs to complete.

I couldn't help but worry and worry. This is an almost entirely 'one-man show'.
I need to burn 2 CDs, edit my montage, do up emcee script, finalise itineraries & program rundowns, do up checklists, buy red wine, send out invites, buy cakes and vouchers, am deciding if I should do a photobook and a photo potrait on canvas as part of reception as well.

Well, life goes on no matter how much we worry or vex on. So yeah, just gonna move on and suck it up.

Yours Truly

2011-08-08T01:11:00.000+08:00

Counting down 2 months exactly to my big day! Time really passes too fast, sometimes I dread the day coming. Cos I don't know what to expect, and I don't know if my preparations would work out well. So yeah, all have to wait for the day to know it.

I hope I would be able to slim down. My weight isn't ideal, omg! And I need to get too much things done, too little time. I think I'm gonna stress all my pimples out. Haha!

Kaykay started playgroup for slightly over a month, and she loves school so much! Now she's much friendlier too, next step would be to look forward to the day she waves goodbye to me without crying. Now she will do the same, but with all the tears. That's my very silly little one. (:

My love and me. :)

Spanking new camera

2011-06-12T22:53:00.001+08:00

I've a new camera! Am now as happy as a kid and absolutely loving every bit of it! (:

Initially wanted to get either a Panasonic Lumix LX5 or Olympus XZ-1. But went to the shop to hands-on it and think that LX5 might just not be worthy of the price tag that comes along with it. And Olympus one is very, very laggy in 'art' mode. Was even considering Canon Powershot S95 cos of the friendly price, but the super off-colour demonstration was seriously a major turn-off.

Ultimately, decided on Samsung EX-1, which was recommended by the sales person. It was pretty much love at first sight for the camera and also the functions were really good. One huge plus point was that the screen swivels! How great is that for self-shot?! And taking photos with Kaykay would be such a breeze.

Ian bought this camera for me. My all-in-one pressie! Absolutely love it. (:

2011-04-26T03:44:00.002+08:00

The Fierce Wife

2011-04-21T03:29:00.001+08:00

My body clock's going haywire, I don't feel sleepy till 3+AM, like now. Then when I go sleep, I keep surfing on my Blackberry. And sometimes so pissed got it gives me all kinds of problem. Then drag till like 4AM then sleep, and wake up in the morning say 10AM and stone like 1 hour before really awake. I'm so deserving of all those nasty outbreaks on my forehead. Tsk.

I don't use the laptop the whole day long, so at night, I need to use it to get some stuffs done. Things like wedding preps, blogging, and googling. My Blackberry is so friggin' slow I feel like smashing it. And all sorts of dumb problem, trackball happy happy cannot scroll left, then right, then down, in all directions! Sometimes my phone can't load Facebook app, need to run in in mobile site. Aiyah, giving me alot of problems. But no money! So just suck it up.

And when I start using lappy I start diverting attention to many many stuffs. Like blogshop browsing, blog-hopping, google images, alot of wu eh bo eh. Life as a mother is so much responsibilities, so much fun, and so much effort.

I was hooked on this Taiwan drama series - 犀利人妻 The Fierce Wife. As much as I think the english title is quite unattractive, the show speaks to me as in I can relate to the show. I stayed up for 2 nights to catch up with the series till the end.

Sypnosis goes something like this: Happy family with a daughter lives together, then a cousin came to live under the same roof during a visit. End up having affair with husband, he chose cousin in the end and divorced his wife. And ultimately cousin dumped him, and he was left with nothing. Before the show ends he showed remorse and wanna have wife back, but wife don't love him anymore.

Maybe sound boring to some people, but I think I enjoyed it cos I am a married woman now, and a mother moreover, all the more I can relate.

In the show, when the wife found out the affair, she tried to keep calm and feign ignorance. Even refused to divorce her husband when he repeatedly begged her to.

I was looking at her and thinking why like this! I mean, yes the child is innocent and blahblahblah. But no more happiness anymore, what's the point. Touchwood okay, but if something anything similar happens in my life, sure no hesitation, just sign the paper! Marriage or rather any relationship's basic fundamental is trust and love. Big words, but simple meaning. If both is broken, what's there left. Sorry no room for discussions or tears, just one tight slap and bye!

Okay, enough of sharing. Nights!

Here I go

2011-04-11T00:50:00.000+08:00

Light notes only.

I'm starting to not fret about those little stuffs. Maybe not yet. But now, I'm gonna focus on my daughter first. Too much to settle for her.

So if I appear to be less concerned, probably I find that it's of no use to keep persevering, persist and expect. Which might be something good to every one, on a short term basis.

So, now, just gonna slurp up cups of KOI and enjoy my life just a tiny bit. (:

After motherhood

2011-03-31T01:14:00.000+08:00

There isn't much in my life which I could share. Everyday is more like a routine. There's alot of stuffs which changed after motherhood. I could say a long list of stuffs, but it's so gonna bore you.

I'm not typically gracious or have a super good temper. But things like this improved alot. I have to say I became more patient. Or in a sense, have a better anger management. Normally I snap very quickly. I would immediately black face. But now, I breathe rhythmically, and I learn to mumble to myself and calm myself down.

Sometimes I think motherhood struck me too fast too furious. The truth isn't much settled in and I'm already holding my baby girl. I had lotsa mental preparation before birth, else I would have broke down and gone into depression.

Alot of people think that I'm a very positive mother. Not bragging or what, but simply comments I get from my mummies friends. I don't necessarily think very very positively. I just behave very very positively. I always believe the child would take in the mother's character, be it more or less. So how I put myself together is very influential to her.

After motherhood, I have to say, I lost friendship bonding. I don't have close friends anymore. I didn't have many friends to start off with. Normally I'm not easily affected by friendship stuffs. The good ones would stay till the end. But as motherhood went on, the bonding seems to be lost. And I couldn't find myself talking the same topics as them. My life is about Kay. I don't have time for musics, books, movies, clubbing, and every thing else. Nothing complain-ish but just very upset that all the years of friendship just felt like, gone to waste. Of course we're still friends, just not close. And no one close to heart.

Now I have made some mummies friends, and a few of them are awesome. They listens to my rants, my complaints, etc. Sometimes it takes someone in the same situation as you to understand and hear you out. I think life just evolves like this. Once something so dramatic happens in life, things change, and priorities change, responsibilities shift.

I don't lead a perfect life. Sometimes I have alot of things to worry, to think, to plan. I get very upset with life. I grumble. I complain. I couldn't understand. And sometimes I regret. I wonder how is life like if nothing happened. I think back at my working days with all my colleagues, etc. But end of day, I look at Kayla I feel uber happy that she's so bubbly, smiley and cute. I smooch her a million times every day and get her to give me hugs every day. I even kiss her butt so much, I love!

Less then 3 months. Less than 6 months.

2011-03-22T00:58:00.000+08:00

As the title, it's about my pre-wedding photoshoot and actual day wedding reception!

There'e quite a lot of loose ends to tie up. Very scattered, and I don't like!

For photoshoot, I need to decide a few stuffs.
- General photoshoot style
- Locations and sites
- Gowns
- Props to bring
- Nails
- Shoes
- etc...

I need to head down the bridal studio for selection of gowns for photoshoot, which is supposed to be minimum one month in advance. And it's gonna take hours to decide. I can't wait, but I am quite demoralised to think about the long day and also how to bring Kayla all around.

After that I got wedding reception to worry about.

Actually I've been very unproductive cos I haven't got to strike off anything on the list I posted previously. I'm still working very hard on it. There's some stuffs I did on the way. I did the wedding invitation up from scratch, settled the wedding monogram, gotten the dates for Guo Da Li and An Chuang. Burying myself in magazines and library books on wedding preparations and gowns inspiration. I need to DIY some stuffs too. Need to settle my dear bridesmaids' dresses too.

Actually I feel that I'm alone in all these. No one tries to get involved, excited nor participating in this whole thing. I feel like a lone soldier. And one who needs to take care of a toddler. Need to go up logistics. Need to plan itinerary. Need to do up emcee script. Need to do wedding video montage. Need to decide on song list for wedding reception. Need to find economical solutions for bridesmaid's dresses. Need to do up my speech. Need to find a printing company for my invites. Need to think of what Kayla's gonna wear. Need to find a time to breath.

I have to do all these by myself. If not, who?

Randomness

2011-02-10T01:59:00.000+08:00

Some very random stuffs I really find it disgusting:
- typing like a tween (i.e, dunchh euu noe wot mie ish talkingzx naosxz)
- spacing before every single punctuation
- stare at me one kind (or two)
- rude kids
- stinky people and loud cheenarians
- really terrible service providers
- action papayas
- buey zi dong people
- lazy people who expects people help them wipe backside
- lizards, cockroaches, rats, moths, etc
- repeated patterns (i.e, bee hive shape and patterning)
- repulsive people who speaks like I owe them zillions
- pills and tablets
- eggplants, jackfruit, sea cucumber, cilantro, spring onions, parsley
- garlic, onions, etc
- Many many more!

Just got so random that I started to think what I dislike, until now I feel so lethargic. Stop thinking and decided to just go sleep and stop wasting sleepytime.

Home II

2011-02-09T11:28:00.003+08:00

I said I need a home that I can call my own.

I said this some two years ago. And he said, dateline was to get a flat in two years.

2 years flew past, no sign of flat.

He promised next year, 2012 to have a flat.

Let's see. I am not pinning hope anymore.

Why pin, when everything just shattered upon what's promised 2 years ago.

____________________________________

Everyone will go like, 'Maybe he need to settle down.' 'Maybe he needs time.' 'Maybe he is already planning.' 'Maybe he needs to study.' 'Maybe he's not ready.' 'Maybe he cannot afford.'

To me, all these are not reasons, these are excuses. Two bloody years past, there's nothing. Nothing at all. Not even a strand of hope that my house is turning into reality. Every talk about it will just bubble away.

You're not me, so don't judge. You don't know me, you better don't self-conclude.

Time waits for no one. No one waits for every one.

The Art of Endurance

2011-02-08T02:12:00.000+08:00

Randomness.

All the times in life, we face people. People of all kinds and too often a time we hate it, but we face moronic people. We're so used to this pretend mask, we do not confront the problem, but we just continue enduring and just 忍一时风平浪静.

Is it really good to keep this endurance thingie going on? 不喜欢就是不喜欢, how to fake that it's actually a 喜欢? I don't fake that I like you when obviously you stink to me. I don't try to show that I'm nice to you just cos I don't want you to know that I don't like you. 不喜欢就是不喜欢, sometimes there is no need for a reason to pinpoint why I 不喜欢. It's just like how people explain that love is blind.

Another random thought: 做人需要懂得自动。没有一件事情是理所当然的。

This is one of the greatest verse ever! I admit sometimes I do forget and treat it as 理所当然. I'm no saint. I try my best not to.

I personally think that 自动 is such a virtue. No one owes any one a living. I don't need to 看你的脸色. But some people just think that they are 高高在上 maybe, and think that the whole wide world have to accommodate, compromise and give in. But one inch is never enough, 人都是贪心的.

I hate it when I already give in, people keep thinking that this is what I should be doing, and don't even appreciate me. I hate it when I endure and mute myself, but people don't get it and just keep trying to push the limits. I hate it when I do something out of respect, yet people take it for granted like this is what things already is. I hate it when things turns out to be otherwise, I am always the one at fault. I hate it when I am not at the task momentarily, but I can never trust a second person to handle it with love and care. I hate it when people just talk only, no action, but talk big infront of everyone. I hate it when people don't know how to 自动.

I hate a lot of things. But I do love a lot too, probably more on my next entry.

Home

2011-01-17T02:11:00.001+08:00

Where is my home? I would very much like to tell every one that I have a roof of my own over my head. But fact is, I don't. And it's pretty annoying cos of various reasons. Shall elaborate later. For now, home is at my mummy's place. This is the place I can laugh like a mad woman, choose what to eat for my meals, bathe at my own timing, no one will throw away my stuffs, no one will move my stuffs from the place I want it to be, I can choose what clothes to let my daughter wear with my own liberty, etc.

It's true that 家家有本难念的经, so what I am saying here is just my own story. Please don't try too hard to read between the lines. There's no hidden meaning or agenda. I am just so vexed. Cos I have no one to talk to. No one who understands, listens, be here, and sincerely want to hear me out, or to lend me a shoulder to cry. Anyway, I doubt there's still people reading this spiderwebbed blog of mine.

I had a baby before marriage. And I only found out in my fifth month of pregnancy. So I solemnised my wedding in June and gave birth in October 2009. Time flew even faster than anything possible, now in 2011 I'm with my most adorable girl who's 15 months old already. I yearn to have a complete family, where I get to spend every day and night with my little family. But sorry, life's never a bed of roses.

One fine day, Kayla fell off the bed while playing around. I cried like a crazy mama, and my phone hanged at that time. So hugged a wailing baby of six months plus over to my brother-in-law's room to call from his phone. And this person came and ask what happened to Kayla. BIL told her and she bloody look at me and say this, 'See! I told you to look after her properly right? She can flip already what, why you never?' I swear I wanted to fucking slap her fat face there and then. She then wanted to hug Kayla, and I just shunned her away. I got damn pissed off and really need peace. This woman had to blow my top! After that, Ian told me she cried. I don't give a flying fuck anymore. So what you cried cos 'you're sad cos me and you having a strenuous relationship'?! And so all communications or talk just ended from that day.

When a baby's sleeping, would you be always slamming things left, right, center, upside down? But this woman still rebuke saying 'baby不是睡了meh?'. Fuck this shit.

My mother-in-law is not possible to get along with on a daily basis. Too many incidents and issues, last straw came only when she threw away something my mummy bought for me which I happily brought over to his place. Seriously, what the fuck is wrong with this person? Don't know, not sure, maybe wrong, just friggin' open mouth and ask! What is so tough? Why must sneakily throw it away and keep quiet? I tried to simply swallow it down and get on with life, but I couldn't. If what she threw wasn't from my mummy, I would probably just forget it. I know you're richer in monetary terms, but what my mummy buy for me is never replaceable with whatever shit you buy.

I moved out with all my stuffs, and of cos Kayla moved out too. I don't even bother if you agree to it or not. But when I move out, Ian wouldn't be coming together. So this is my dilemma. I want Kayla to have a complete family. Having a loving daddy by her side all night long. Having a daddy to play and interact with all day on weekends. This isn't what that is going on now. We're leading totally separate lives. Sleeping, eating, bathing, shitting, drinking, waking, and every other thing, all separate. I feel very lonesome at times. I feel like telling someone. I feel like having someone hear me out. I feel like just crying it out.

Everytime I bring up the topic of our matrimonial flat, it always comes out to nothing. It's always being blamed that my mummy is 'traditional' and want me to move out cos I'm married. But isn't it that cos I have my own family now and that we should build our family? Is it that he's too comfortable in his place that he don't see the urgency? I hate to feel so needy. I only want Kayla to have all the love she deserves. I feel very depressed and very helpless. I feel like rewinding time and get a flat before marriage. Agree on everything before signing that paper, I should have listened to my mummy. After giving birth to my child, everything will just stay stagnant. Everything will be not as important.

I will always tell myself every thing is just a phase and will too pass. But sometimes when no one cares, it hurts so bad. And when there's no one to speak it, it hurts so much it aches.

I need a place to call home of my own.

List which give butterflies

2011-01-15T02:24:00.001+08:00

I've got this list which I'm working on right now, and everytime I think or touch on it, it simply gives me butterflies in my tummy and I always feel lost! Okay, let me jot it down. Wedding stuffs first, then personal stuffs follows.

Wedding invitation &stationery
The dress, makeup and hair
过大礼, 聘金, 四点金, betrothal gifts, dowry, etc
DIY stuffs, i.e. angbao box, table numbers, guest book, etc
Bridesmaids' dresses
Itinerary for Photoshoot day and Actual day
Song list, speeches, montages, etc
Seating plan
Salons for facials
Products for skincare regimen
Find a solution for my back acne scarring
Solitaire engagement ring
Kayla's second birthday party or not

Tentatively the list looks something like this. But when each item break downs, it's gonna be those nitty-gritty stuffs which causes all the headaches and butterflies! I shall blog about it in detail in my next entry.

2010 in words

2010-12-30T02:21:00.001+08:00

I am gonna try sum up 2010 in words. Maybe not very eloquent but I would try my best to sound coherent. (:

I have had my ups and downs throughout this 2010. I had home sweet home with Ian and Kayla at his place for around 6 months. Moved out of that bloody place after that. Spending the rest of my life in a place which makes me a happy woman each day I open my eyes to Kayla's chubbiness and smiles. I spent the whole of 2010 solely taking care of my girl, Kayla. And nothing could beat this accomplishment.

I lost the happiness of hugging my husband to sleep. I gained freedom of no need to fake a front just to hide my unhappiness away. Kayla lost the opportunity of spending more time with her daddy. My husband gained a happy wife away from all the misery.

In 2010, Kayla had an awesome birthday bash. Everyone who came and gave blessings to Kayla were just mad awesome. And in November 2010, I had a good 23rd birthday. With my beloved family, mummy and sister we all had Suki-ya for birthday dinner. My husband got me flowers, one after so long. I spent an awesome night with my family on Xmas day. Having a simple dinner with Kayla and Ian, playing bubbles and opening Xmas gifts.

And I'm gonna end 2010 with a hotel getaway with my BFFs and Kayla and Ian! Countdown to a new year in a new way which I've never tried before. (:

In 2011 to come, I hope it would only become better. I wish I would be able to achieve some stuffs.

I desperately need a roof over my head. I have a family to upkeep and I want my family to be whole. I hate it when people destroys my perfect family. And my hatred didn't just diminish, it's still here. But I still love my family as much.

I would also like to hope to find a decent job with a decent income with fixed working hours in 2011. I need a decent income to provide for myself and Kayla. I need fixed working hours cos I need to spend sufficient time with my daughter. I hope I would really get to fulfill this.

And, I am holding my wedding dinner in October 2011. Please let all turn out well. I would do my best to work out all those nitty-gritty stuffs. I just hope everything turns out magical! One very important task on hand is to get my dream solitaire work out. Maybe some thing of a 0.6-0.8 carat, VVS1-VS1, E-F. (revised for buffering)

When I have income, I would probably complete a couple more stuffs. Get a better camera, upgrade my mobile phone, pay bills promptly instead of dragging for months, getting myself inked, add a middle name for Kayla, doing proper skin treatment, become a sucker for skincare, maintain my hair like an awesome mama. LOL!

I guess my list would probably be like that. Very long-winded, but I should aim for the moon, lest I land on stars or clouds. (:

Merry merry Xmas

2010-12-26T01:25:00.000+08:00

I have been in the worst financial state, for the longest time. I realise I'm no longer financially independent. And this feeling sucks. Since 16 years old, I've been living on my own savings and earnings. It's been 7 years and now I suddenly no longer have any earnings, I feel very very insecure. I don't have the sense of security any more and feel very demoralised at times.

I see stuffs which I want to get. I have to think thrice. Because I need to get more stuffs for Kayla. And to be frank, I would really rather get stuffs for her than for myself. It just seems that I've forgotten how to pamper myself. I forgotten how to enjoy life. But I learned how to appreciate my little bundle of joy. I learned how to celebrate the smallest causes.

At times, I keep thinking of going back to workforce to provide for myself and my family. But I am still trying to wean Kayla off breastfeeding. And I seriously couldn't part with Kayla as of now. I am afraid that I would miss out a part of her life and this part I would never get it back.

Sidetracking a little. Recently, I've heard too much of infidelity in married men. It's so sickening. I don't know about temptations, and seriously temptations are every where! But what are marriage vows for? Where were all the promises? Does he still have his wife or kids in his mind and heart? I don't know and I don't think I wanna know.

If such a misfortune ever happen to me, I could never be magnanimous. With a kid in toll, i can't imagine why would a married man stray. Anyway, none of the parts of the above words doesn't illustrate my life. Just some afterthoughts. (:

Hello! (:

2010-12-14T14:55:00.000+08:00

After an extremely long hiatus, I'm gonna start blogging here again. This might very well be the only place I vent my frustrations and my daily musings. (:

For the record, Kayla's now 14 months and 4 days old. Oh how time flies. Now I look at her and amaze myself at how fast she's growing up and learning things. Just a year before, she's such a tiny little baby. And now she's as busy as a bumblebee, walking around and exploring new stuffs. It always gets to an emotional point where I start imagining the future.

I do not live at my in-laws place anymore. It's been so since Kayla's around 6 months. I am very glad that I moved out. All the tension and faking is getting horrible, and since I can't make things better, I chose to leave. And I am full of jubilation that I do not see faces which I abhor. Everyday I wake up to baby Kayla's chubby face, wet kisses. tiny palms where she touches my face, and most importantly, people who makes me happy and bothers to truly care about Kayla! And not treating her as a toy or someone silly.

So my apartment better come soon, else I would be apart from my husband for the longest time! A lot of times, I couldn't take it, I just want a family to be whole. But I can't bring myself to move back, and going back to those unhappiness. Why should I? And how could I subject Kayla to such an environment which I myself dislike?

On a happier note, Christmas is coming! And I'm invited to Sophia's house on the eve to have a BBQ and also maybe a gift exchange. I love Sophia, she's such a true person. Someone I can talk to and feel safe with. I hope Kayla can be good friends with Trisha! ((:

As for my wedding on 8th October 2011, it's still in the planning. Some stuffs are done, but a lot of them are still not decided yet. It's tough to do all the planning and sourcing. It gets to a point where I just wanna look at beautiful brides, awesome blings and just slack one corner. It gets tedious with the figures to fit in with and all the itineraries drive me mad. So if you have good wedding invitations designer and printer, do recommend.

My wedding's gonna be just a maximum of 12 tables, so please do not come whine at me if I can't manage to invite you. Nothing extravagant for me, just close relatives and a few friends. I don't have a lot of friends to start with either, and the same applies to my husband. So we drew a conclusion to have an intimate and cozy reception. So if you're invited, please make it a point to grace my wedding. (:

Meanwhile, I'm gonna just slurp up my Rockery milk tea and enjoy my afternoon when Kayla naps.

Happy 23rd! (:

2010-11-12T00:37:00.001+08:00

It's my 23rd!

Year 2010 hasn't been the best, but definitely not the worst too. I've my little awesome with me everyday, and she's all that matters. (:

Happy birthday to myself. And I wish happiness upon all.

Lovely flowers from my dearest love. (:

Wedding Planning; Part 1

2010-08-03T00:34:00.003+08:00

After 'I Do'
What do you do?

I promised to blog about wedding planning. (: So here's a little teaser.

The norm is that you get the romantic (or not-so romantic) proposal from your boyfriend and you said 'I do'. Once the excitements over and it's time to plan for ROM and wedding banquet, it's where the headache starts.

For ROM, some people do the all in one plan. Which is ROM and wedding banquet lies on the same day. Some do ROM way beforehand and then maybe sometime in the next year or so, then do the wedding banquet. So my guess is that it's all up to you and your partner.

I didn't get any proposal, yet. So no comments on that. I did my ROM first, and no wedding banquet till like 2.5 years later, which is October 2011. So mine's not exactly the norm. Now for the planning of wedding.

An overview of what to plan for

- Bridal Studio
- Banquet Venue
- Actual Day Photographer &/OR Videographer

1) Bridal Studio

There're hundreds out there so there's really endless of choice for bridal studios. The whole stretch of Tanjong Pagar Road is full of bridal studios. My take is to shortlist a few which you like enough, and then read the forums for more feedbacks and comments about the sales person. But read forums with a pinch of salt, cos the thread might be flooded with their own sales personnel lurking around and trying to 'up' the reputation. I know of a few. (:

Shortlist 3 which are your faves and head down to their studio to talk to their sales person. They should make you feel comfortable and also answer your queries. Remember to ask to take a look at their gowns and evening gowns too, and request to try on a few. The 'feel' of their gowns is very important, and look good, not those tattered kind.

Ask or bargain for as much as possible, before paying deposit. There are so many stuffs to bargain or look out for. Bridal studio do take pre-wedding shoots too, normally they come in packages, unless you wanna have everything DIY, which in my humble opinion is extremely 'ley-cheh'. Some basic stuffs to 'bargain' for.

- Father's suits
- Bridesmaid's/Mummy's dress
- More poses for album
- Discounts for additional poses
- Upsize album
- Additional canvas photo with frame
- Upgrade album cover to acrylic
- Transport inclusive
- Number of shoot location
- Corsages for family
- Hand bouquet for bride
- Additional kua, gowns and evening gowns
- Makeup trial
- Wet weather plan
- Flower girl dress
- etc...

2) Banquet Venue

Now is to hunt down the place for your wedding dinner. Every one wants to have a nice place, so those really good hotels are usually snapped up 1.5 years ahead. Before proceeding, you should have already decided on a date and number of guests.

Who doesn't want high ceiling, pillar-less, romantic setting, classy hotel, good service and good food. But to be frank, at the end of the wedding, no one would complain if they are dining at a venue with not-that-high ceiling, with two pillars on the side, what guests really want is a memorable dinner with prompt service and good food. So that should be the top priority.

To be frank, the angbaos received would be used to offset the ridiculously expensive banquet dinner. So really, plan the guests that you're inviting. Invite those who wants to attend your wedding, and not just because you need to invite him/her.

Hotels have open houses for wedding dinner, road shows, wedding fair, etc. Signing up at places like this makes you have more bargaining power cos they wanna close deal and thus can offer much more perks. So asking for perks is really a must-do. Some perks to ask for.

- Complimentary food tasting
- Waiver of corkage charge for duty paid wines
- Invitation cards (without inserts) inclusive
- Guestbook inclusive
- Free-flow of beer and wine (not the common nowadays)
- Bridal suite
- Day-use room for helpers
- Floral arrangements for tables and aisle
- LCD projector and screen
- Complimentary parking coupons for 40% of guest
- etc...

3) Actual Day Photographer &/OR Videographer

The fun part is here, choosing your photographer and/or videographer. He is gonna be the man who's gonna snap those once-in-a-lifetime moments on to digital film. So choose the right guy. Make sure you can communicate with him and also love his photos to bits.

Their charges are always quite expensive for those good ones, so really need to just send emails to them and straightaway ask for quotations. If their charges are too far off your budget, strike them off the list. My point of view is, there would be other photographers too. Don't exceed your budget for a photographer. There are mid-range ones which are equally good. Some photographers are too good to be true, so beware.

Videographers are really up to individual, cos good ones charge at the very least 1K for shooting your wedding day. And if you are going on a budget, skip videographer all together. Ask yourself, how many times are you gonna sit infront of the TV and watch your wedding over and over again? So my opinion? Find someone who's trustworthy to faithfully take some shots on your wedding day. Important stuffs like, gatecrash and wedding march-in.

If you're getting both videographer and photographer, it'd be a good idea to let them meet together with you and make sure they can click and have the chemistry on the big day.

These are very vague stuffs, there are alot alot of nitty-gritty details which I can't possibly state everything here. Will blog again about planning the big day. Stuffs like invitation cards, wedding favors, manicure, speeches, itinery planning, etc.

This blog is almost dying. LOL! (: I'm so gonna try reviving this place.

I'm so into online shopping lately. Not that I haven't been online shopping in the past. But I think it's getting more like a habit. A bad thing I know. But sometimes I do look at the tag of a product in the shops, and got me thinking that getting them online is gonna be so much cheaper! Maybe sometimes with a wait, but saving that buck and giving myself more time to think if I really need it, rather than impulsive buying is a good idea too. (: Things I shop for includes my own wear, accessories, Kayla's clothing, her toys, her educational stuffs, her diapers and even wet wipes.

Life hasn't been really joyous for me, but rantings aside cos I've already blah-ed a whole lot in my other blog. I shall spare you the agony of my fumes. (: Have stopped working since June 2009, and it's gonna hit 1 whole year. The feeling's kinda special, cos that's the longest time I've 'rested' from work. But I've started a whole long journey of motherhood! (:

I'm thankful that I shall have a few of my besties with me throughout all these. Special thanks to Jasmine. She never fails to initiate meetups with me, calling and smsing me when she's free. I know I get busy and tired that I do not initiate much these days. But I do think of my dearest friends! (: And not forgetting people who encourage me on Twitter and Facebook. (: People like Regina, Sihui, Qingxia, etc. Okays, I'm not good at such stuffs, those mushy words. You know, I know, can already. (:

Gonna sleep already. Till then.

Mini update here since I've got a little time on hand. (:

Ian's birthday 2 days ago, and he's 27 already! (: Happy birthday, my love.

Met with girlfriends yesterday and it's really nice to meet up once every so often to have a small catching up session. Thanks ladies, for helping around and always being so understanding. Especially now that I need to take care of my girl every time. (:

Na, this is for you! (:

Birthday husband and cutie daughter. ^^

With love from Xueting! (((:

2010-04-03T12:14:00.003+08:00

I don't know if there are any remaining few kind souls who would still be reading my pathetic blog, but I thought I should still update this tiny bit. (:

Life's still more of less the same, I'm still on total breastfeeding. But Kayla's turning 6 month soon, so it's gonna be cereal time! ((: She's doing great now, a happy baby, occasionally throwing mini tantrums seeking for my attention. LOL! Well, a baby's still a baby and would definitely have all of my unconditional love. (:

Living together with in-laws ain't a good thing at all. I get nags like I'm still a kid. I can't have things my way, like choosing NOT to have breakfast, like totally what the hell. I mean it's my stomach, I don't have appetite for brekkie, can't I skip?! -.-" Different lifestyle and I sometimes think that the more I tolerate the nonsense, the more atrocious it gets. I feel tired sometimes, and I do get frustrated and just shut myself down. Property prices are rocket high now, so no buying of apartment just for now. Gonna do my research first, and take note of when to buy in! (: I can't wait for my flat! Even if it's just registering to ballot, I'm happy enough!

Friends who know me well enough, should know that I'm not one who tolerate nonsense. I dislike something, I really show my feelings. Like it's all written on my face, I don't care if it makes you angry. Don't like means don't like, no faking! -.-"

Enough of rantings. (:

This is my lovely darling. ♥ ♥

♥ ♥ This is yours truly, with a peek of my girl's face.

A-Lin - P.S.我爱你

我想要成为你的眼
把最美的风景
收进你的心中

我想要成为你的手
好让我从现在到以後
占有你温柔一刻不放过

恨不得把明天没收
让你永远不会变动
专注的爱着我

我爱你没有保留
我爱你就到最後
有些人值得等候
有些悲伤值得忍受

我爱你不是冲动
生命尽头反正一场空
只要你记得我们那么爱过

我要替你收集笑容
怕未来快乐变得贵重
要是少了我你有多寂寞

太阳不会放弃天空
哪怕你不再属於我
我会在不同的窗口给你拥抱

我忘不掉你第一次吻我

It's been slightly more than a month since I last blogged over here. Sorry to neglect my blog here, but you do get to see more frequent updates over at my other blog. (: Didn't blog here so as not to bore people here with my mummy and baby stuffs. So I try to blog about more personal stuffs here, cos people who read my blog here are usually my friends, whom I've known for long. (:

So, just a little update about myself. I'm still on breastfeeding and I've yet to bounce back to my pre-pregnancy weight! Very sad, still 2 kilograms away, though I still look very flabby here and there. Been very into online shopping since a few months back, there are always nice clothes to tempt me! (:

I'm a mummy already, and I'm proud to be one. I have to say that I really did learn alot and matured. (: If you ask if I would re-choose my options, I would say 'no'. (: This is how much I enjoy my life now. So I really hope you are too. ^^

My love for this girl will never change.

Forever my girl. (:

2010-02-02T23:16:00.002+08:00

A few days back, went to this damn hair salon for a little trim of hair. And I don't know what it makes my hair damn dry and tangled. Even after I applied serum on! I'm very, very pissed. I have no idea if it's their low-grade shampoo or their poor cutting skills. Now I need to go for another trim. This is irritatingness! -.-"

On a happier note, I look at my girl and I feel so happy every single day of my life. (:

This is my girl, Kayla Low. ((:

In the past, my life's about work and boyfriend. Now the word boyfriend seems so alien to me. Like something I feel disgusted about, I guess it's because I'm married, and boyfriend is already a thing of the past. And work filled up every day of my life, since 2004. Been working like mad rabbit since then, never took a single cent from my family. Now that I'm a mummy to Kayla, I realise I wanna give her so much, so much. It seems like I can never stop giving when it comes to her. Perhaps this is why mummies are all so nobel. Not to keep bombarding mummy chants, just wanna reminisce those beautiful past. (:

I have to be honest that motherhood hit me suddenly and there was a point I wasn't quite ready for it yet. There are people and matters which I personally feel that hasn't been handled in the best manner. I wish to have all your blessings, be it for me, for my girl or for my whole family. Anyway, just rewinding a fair bit. No hard feelings or anything. (:

Alot of people has been asking me when am I going to work or something. I'm hoping that I do not need to go to work. I want to watch my girl grow, I just don't wish to miss a single moment of it. It's not cos I'm lazy and wanna be a taitai hors. I would most likely find some way to earn income from home, or something la. For now, I just wanna concentrate on my girl. (:

Thanks for reading my nonsensical ramblings. (:

Follow me on Twitter if you haven't. I'm tweeting frequently now, especially for these few days. (:

2010-01-27T00:03:00.002+08:00

My great-grandma passed away. It's like just 2 months ago I visited her when my girl turned one month. I hope she's resting in peace in wherever she is now. I couldn't send her off and I still feel not that good about it.

Been busy running around for the past 2 days, and rushing back home to cleanse myself and bathe before my girl needs a feed.

That's all for now, I'm super duper tired now.

2010-01-19T15:02:00.002+08:00

I got a new love for my Blackberry! (: I've been searching for a wonderful fur ball for my mobile, a pink one! And now, I've finally got it! It's totally lovely and uber chio!

Close up macro shot of my love! (:

What a beautiful gadget.

Loves, Sherlyn!

2010-01-16T12:43:00.003+08:00

I hate parsley, of any kind. And why can't I just rant about the damn parsley spilling all over my food! It's really getting on my nerves. But all I get is that, "Why should people accomodate to you one person when the rest of the world loves parsley?"

DAMN!

I am mad fury at that point. And actually I still am.

DAMN PARSLEY!

2010-01-12T12:53:00.001+08:00

I'm in love with this Pokka Grape Juice Drink with Collagen! ((: Super nice! It's not too sweet and it's heavenly when consumed chilled. ^^ Plus the knowledge of it rich in collagen and vitamin C makes you feel good. (:

Ta-dah! (((:

2010-01-10T00:01:00.002+08:00

I'm looking for this damn dress from an online shop, till I got really frustrated. -.-"

Now I'm diverting my attention to another want. Panasonic Lumix LX3, in black.

Man, this is such a beauty! Actually I've been wanting this at one corner of my heart secretly. Why? Cos it's too expensive. Seriously, $699 at retail price. I can't afford, nor bear this lump of bucks leaving me lors.

But how to now love? Tell me.

Sighs! I should have wished for this as Christmas pressie, maybe it'd end up in those Santa socks of mine. Never mind, there's more occasion upcoming. (:

2009-12-23T15:43:00.001+08:00

Exact same entry with my other blog. (:

Hubby and I went out for dinner yesterday and rushed home cos a hungry baby's wailing non-stop. Went to Takashimaya, cos initially hubby wanted to buy a purse for me as Christmas gift, but end up no time to choose, so gave up, other times then come again lors. ):

We had Tampopo for dinner, and it seems that standard has dropped a little. The first time we ate it's deliciously fantastic! Yes, that nice! But now, no more. Anyway, photos do the talking la. I'm a lazy mama. (:

Before eating, very happy.

After eating, super disappointed. My expression fail though.

The so-so chocolate chiffon cake. ):

Here's our photos. (:

On the way there, halting at the traffic light.

Now my photos galore. (:

(:

(:

Car rides is the best time for camwhoring.

Camwhore continues without hubby. LOL!

Lastly, a photo with darling Kayla. (:

2009-12-22T21:21:00.002+08:00

I'm guilty of neglecting this blog for far too long. LOL. Cos my life is all about my darling girl, so I don't have much time to update this blog. Thinking of closing down this blog, when I don't even have much time to spare, not even to mention blogging. (:

Maybe I'd close this blog and link to my another blog. Just maybe. (:

Now photos. WIth my newly rebonded hair. ^^

My chubby darling. (:

Yours truly! (:

My love.

Me and hubby. (:

My darling and me. (:

Kayla's 2 month and 12 days old! She's growing up gradually, and seeing her grow is the best thing ever. (:

2009-12-01T19:32:00.001+08:00

Okays. This blog of mine is dying. I've been a SAHM all these time, and I'm really enjoying all the time I have with my girl, and of course my husband. (:

Met up with Jasmine and Huisi at Takashimaya just yesterday, and had a little catch up. Of course, my girl's with me. (:

Took a photo outside Takashimaya, with this ridiculously huge Louis Vuitton 'luggage'.

And to end this super duper short and simple entry, this is to make you love my girl, and to continue loving me. ((:

(:

hearts!

2009-11-11T18:02:00.002+08:00

I'm super in love with this Sony Vaio W series netbook! It's rounded at the edges and it's got pink! Will anyone buy my old lappie which is less than 1 year old to let me get this? LOL!

Super chio-ness! More here.

My girl's officially one month old, yesterday. And it's my birthday tomorrow! I told hubby I'm gonna go home so that I can 'celebrate', rather than staying at home and only feed my girl and face the walls. (:

So I'm going home tomorrow! Yippee!

2009-10-27T21:08:00.002+08:00

My dearest husband's so drained, I guess. Having to study and to take care of a confining wifey and a newborn baby. He needs to study during the sacred free time we have, which is the few hours the our girl sleeps. And sleeps after baby girl sleeps at night. Sometimes I feel the tiredness from him, but there's nothing I can do. Neither can I make our girl sleep 'faster'. So, jia you, hubhub! ((:

Love you. (:

Before my dear girl's full month, I'm so gonna go to the hairstylist I frequent and get my hair done! It's atrociously ugly, with a touch of auntieness now! Super buay tahan liaos! I'm gonna do some soft rebonding, together with a hair trim, and be back with bangs! (: I wanna look like my age, not older! (:

I want back this look la! ):

If only confinement can end this moment, I'd jump hysterically. (:

2009-10-26T13:14:00.002+08:00

My life, now, is solely revolving around my precious daughter, so there's really not much to update here. Now I'm thinking, if I'm still working, would the 3 months maternity leave be enough? I guess I'd wanna see and be with my daughter more than that. I would definitely wanna grow up with her, and bond with her. Working mama is definitely gonna be very tedious, I'm glad that I can stay at home and be with my girl. (:

My girl's gonna be full month soon! Aww, how time flies.

2009-10-24T17:53:00.001+08:00

Motherhood is rewarding. Especially when I'm breastfeeding my daughter, watching her grow as the days pass is really sweet. Seeing that her cheeks grow chubbier, and her smiling after finishing her feed. It's really nice! (:

I'm currently confined and really nothing much to do. So I really don't know much about current affairs, or what TV programmes are available. Currently, I'm very addicted to the show, 'The Moment of Truth' on Channel 5. (: It's really very controversial and very fresh! Some participants simply gives truthful answers to shocking questions, like, 'Have you ever been paid for sex?', 'Do you keep a spreadsheet of who you have sex with?', 'After being married, have you ever had sexual intercourse with anyone other than your husband?'. And all the answers to these questions posted to the participants, are YES! And it's really amazing to hear and see the reaction of their partners. Of course there's collateral damage, some marriages are broken, some relationship goes bygone. But it's really amazing what people can confess to, to get moolah! (:

I wanna dye my hair after my confinement finishes. And do soft rebonding to my hair. And to get pearl milk tea from Koi at Toa Payoh! And LJS fries! Plus lots of other food! Now my daily meals are so boring I feel like puking everytime I see them. Lols!

I'm going to rest a while. My palms smells so nice with my girl's scent. *sniff*

2009-10-21T17:07:00.002+08:00

I know, I know. It's been donkey years since I last updated here, almost one month in like 9 days time. LOLS! My apologies, it's hectic to deal with a newborn and it's been crazy the past 11 days or so. I hardly get enough sleep. But, seeing her happy and growing up healthily is such great pleasure. (:

No doubt motherhood is a whole new thing to me and it's just the very beginning. But this small little precious girl makes me love her so much everyday. (: All rights, if you're really interested in her, or just wanna see my blog entries more often, you might wanna try here! Now my life revolves around my precious daughter and husband. So I try not to update here. It's gonna bore readers I think. So I'm still maintaining two blogs, maybe until I feel comfortable, I will blog all stuffs here. (:

I'm doing confinement now and it's not that bad. My husband's supportive, and what more can I ask for. Though it's not enjoyable, but it's still bearable. (: I'm not bathing every single day, but I get to bathe when I want to. (: And my confinement ain't that bad too. Counting down to the end of my confinement, I need chilled drinks, tidbits, chocolate, and air-conditioning! Arghs, I miss milk tea with pearls! *yummy*

Okays, I'm going to end my entry here. Gonna update again when I get to go out. (: Here are two photos to share of my daughter, and she's only 11 days old today! (:

Just delivered her, the face super cute la!

Latest photo, love the cheeks. (:

2009-09-30T00:12:00.003+08:00

My dumb Blackberry came back from M1, after a major upgrading, sort of like a resurrection. But this caused my phone to lose all phone applications and all phone contacts.

So, quite alot of number are lost. Please don't be alarmed that I ask you who are you when you sms or call me. I didn't forget you, my phone failed me. ):

Anyway, it's Mid-Autumn festival soon, a few more days to go only! (: And it's yummy mooncake time! I super like mooncake, but can't have too much this year, cos it's high in sugar level. ): Remember to eat mooncakes, to celebrate this festival! ^^

Just came back from Jurong Point with Xueting. (: And also a short catching-up session with Alvin and Yingwen, happened to bumped into them while we're settling in Mac for fries and drink! (:

Blog again, hopefully by that time I am worrying about how to shed the fats, instead of when to deliver. LOL! (:

My Blackberry died on me! -.-" How great!

So now I'm using my gorgeous Vodafone 903SH for the time being.

I wanted to go down to Paragon to send my phone for repair, but the stuffy and warm weather made me stay at home.

Looks like Blackberry will not be there for my delivery. ):

There's a new Japanese restaurant at Takashimaya, just opposite of Yoshinoya, called Tampopo. Okays, I personally find the name amusingly laughable. I kept repeating the name, Tampopo, to baby after being seated, and giggled to myself.

The Japanese ramen they serve is really nice! Like 359 times more yummy than Ajisen ramen. (: Price is not that steep also, baby and I love it to bits, and will definitely go again! Go try it out when you have that ramen craving. Will definitely satisfy you. (:

Here's the webbie, you can see their menu too! (:

This photo is horrendous, but heck, long time didn't see my face on my own blog.

I've watched Inglorious Bastards and also Phobia 2. Don't place hope on Phobia 2 to be a horror show, it's not, it's more like a lame and funny show, especially towards the end. And my 'company' watching the movie was terrible. One beside me act like some small girl, covering eyes and mouth, but laugh after the 'scare' was over. One behind me screamed like no need money, and when I turned over and take a look, it's an old auntie around 50+ years old! Goodness!

Anyway, that's about it. Blog more in the future. (:

Married life came early for me. But guess what, I'm still in bliss.

There's so much of him that I could just go on and on. I don't think I'm going to go all touchy feely, and mushy here.

And if baby you're reading this, thanks for everything. Your graciousness, patience, understanding, and your love. (:

Baby and my girlies, with me. (:

hearts.

2009-09-06T23:27:00.002+08:00

Pink macaron!

Cute pink accessory I just added! (:

This round thingie is so cute, I just have to blog!

2009-08-29T15:40:00.001+08:00

I think I suck at the darn Bomberman game!

2009-08-28T09:32:00.002+08:00

WALAUS! I'm so gonna swear all the vulgarities off. I had difficulties sleeping last night, all the way till around 3AM. And now, the stupid drilling started at 9AM. -.-" At my place, it's drilling all the time to build a new lift for my block, which has only 4 floors. At baby's place, it's also drilling! Tell me how to not get irritated and how to not swear. I just don't get enough sleep! Damn.

I'm angsty without enough sleep. Kill me.

2009-08-26T14:44:00.001+08:00

I spent the whole of last night changing the template for my another blog. And I really liked it alot! (: Changed the header background with photos that I found. Now it's so pinkish and so girly, that's exactly how a baby girl's blog should look like!

For this blog, I'd keep it this way, simple and nice. (: Added the same favicon for both pages and I like the muffin at my blog address!

These few days had been routinely the same. So nothing much to blog about.

This super lovely, girly photo of pink cupcake and rose, to share with all babes! (:

2009-08-19T04:02:00.002+08:00

A little update here. (: If not it's really like a deserted blog with no one reading and blogging.

Sunday, hopefully, we're having another mahjong session. And I'm happy to be seeing and playing with Huisi's Hello Kitty mahjong tiles! ((: And this time I have I photo which I took previously.

Pretty, isn't it. <3

Last Friday, met the Warner babes at Bugis for some korean food, together with Ling Fang. And then, headed home to change and go to baby's place. (: Memory's been not that good, so I really can't recall what we're doing.

Saturday, met up with Ah Lian, Edwin, Pauline, Charlie, Ling Fang and not forgetting Sam! (: It's so nice to meet up with them! Been so long since I've been hiding in my cave. Everyone's still so nice! (: So happy to see Ah Lian! And, Charlie's leaving this Sunday, awww. ): You know I'd surely miss you, and the times we spent together.

Ahpa Sam and us! (:

It's Charlie, Pauline and me!

It's Ikea day again on Monday. (: Baby and I decided to get our precious' wardrobe, cos her clothes are all over the place now. So we had our usual fun shopping at Ikea and finally deciding on a 6 drawer cupboard for her. Bought bath tub, mattress protector, photo frames, and many others to go along. (: Lunch at Ikea! And I have my sweet indulgence after meal. (:

Super soft muffin. (:

Spent 2 days to fix the cupboard and now it's all nice and functioning! (: Photos on my the other blog. (: Till then, a photo of baby and myself in April 2009.

Many tiny loves. (:

2009-08-11T11:54:00.003+08:00

Manchester United lost the Community Shield match to Chelsea. -.-" Penalty also will lose, hais!

Mahjong last night! (: It was with Xueting, Huisi and Jasmine. We played Huisi's tiles - Hello Kitty ones. It's so pretty, aww. (: Huisi got a movie to catch at Jurong Point, so next, hubby came over and we continue our game after dinner.

Won a little, and we had our fun and laughing moments. (:

So, mahjong soon again! ^^

2009-08-09T16:32:00.002+08:00

Seems like very long didn't update my blog. (:

There's Manchester United match tonight, gonna nua at home and watch. With the ever boring Chelsea. LOL!

Mahjong with the ladies tomorrow, should nothing go wrong. And we can all say 'Hi!' to Huisi's spanking new pink glitter acrylic mahjong set! (:

Ladies in my life. <3

2009-07-31T23:34:00.003+08:00

To my dearest Xueting and Huisi, please read my entry, you know what I mean. LOL!

30th July, met up with girlfriends at Orchard for catching up. (: We walked the ION Orchard, nothing really fantastic. (: There's Provence bakery at the basement! I love their chocolate wassant! Super duper nice, I love them! Anyway, we had Ajisen ramen before Huisi left for her first lesson in campus.

So we settled at the Provence bakery, which has a cafe. Jasmine and I got to 'action' to snap up the chocolate wassant before they were gone. LOL. Thanks to a friendly baker there. (: You should go try them some day, and they've recently came up with new flavour of kaya wassant. (: Here's their website, click here.

The ever nice wassant! (:

Xueting, Jasmine and me had a good catching up session, and a good laughing session too. We took lotsa crap photos, with each other's camera. Too bad, Huisi isn't there to be with us la. ): Anyway here are some photos. (:

Caught cam-whoring.

Color swap to pink. Cute!

Color swap to black, ugly! -.-"

Here's some nicer photos to share. (:

Jasmine and Xueting. (:

Xueting and me. =)

Signing off with yours truly. (:

With love. (:

2009-07-29T16:50:00.002+08:00

I went to Shirley's place to have my nails fixed. They were in terrible shape before this morning, and now, ta dah, they are simply gorgeous! (: Hot pink nails with shimmering silver glittery tip, how to not love rights?

Hearts!

These few days are a breeze, nothing much to blog about, thus blog is abit stagnant. Nothing to update. (: For movie lovers, please do not watch the latest Aaron Kwok show, Murderer, it's a total crap movie! Totally unbelievably lame. And Aaron Kwok isn't exactly handsome in the movie, so save your bucks.

Girlfriends meeting tomorrow. (: More photos till then.

2009-07-24T13:43:00.002+08:00

I had difficulties sleeping last night. And I woke up early this morning. So in total I slept for only 4-5 hours. My previous keeps tumbling and she's keeping herself very busy, I guess. I went to self-collect my registered mail from Singapore Post at West Mall at 9.30AM. And had my dosage of mr. bean's soya milk. (: Then, headed home to wait for the stupid mioTV technician to come fix the damn TV.

Now that it's working, like finally, I'm having both mioTV and StarHub cable TV. But, I still prefer the latter. I don't know why mummy signed up for the mioTV and Singtel's customer service is kinda sucky, not as though StarHub is better, just that Singtel made me pissed off. I called up their customer service hotline at 9PM on a fateful day, and got put on hold, to listen to that bloody non-coordinated musical lullaby, for a whole damn 25 mins! Maybe they know I called from M1 mobile number? God knows. Anyway, the poor telephone operator got it, and I blasted at him the moment he spoke. Anyway, still waiting for another phone call from a lousy Singtel sales personnel from West Mall. He told me crap, serious crap, not me being cranky, but seriously, read on and tell me if he's crap.

The mioTV is being installed, but that night the stupid box is not working, at all, hanging still at a screen and that's it. So I called the useless customer service, and feedback that mummy's still have a $40 voucher pending from them. So this crap West Mall personnel called me up with his mobile phone and follow-up. He ask me for my address and mummy's IC for verification. Next he told me this "Sorry, on our record it doesn't reflect that you've signed up for any mioTV." -.-" Tell me what nonsense. Then, he went on and say really don't have, blah blah. So I ask him if he knows what nonsense he's talking about, yes exact words. So he bloody did a check again and say he's sure. But when I ask him, then how on earth did his technician came to fix this stupid mioTV box when he says mummy didn't sign any contract? He told me he has no idea too. Tell me is it crap!? -.-" So wait for this crap guy to call back.

End of ramblings of nonsense. (: Now for some emo stuffs. Not really emo, but heartfelt.

Ask you guys can all read, I'm now pregnant and baby Kayla's coming this October. Everyone's very happy and excited about this, and looking forward to my precious' arrival. Mummy's even doing bean sprout husks pillow for her granddaughter. (: It made me sad to think that I will have to move out and stay with hubby and leave her alone. Not that she don't have daddy and my younger sister. Just somehow I feel homely here and I know mummy will dote on baby Kayla. (: Overheard mummy and sister's conversation that she's going overseas on April 2010 for 6 months for studies, and this would leave mummy alone at home. She's still working even till now, and she comes home to cook for us, when we're home. Sleeps at 10PM and wakes at 5AM to work. I can't bear to think about how lonely it is to come home to a quiet home with no one to talk to her. And no one for her to talk to. Daddy's always not at home, and with younger sister away in some overseas country, me at hubby's place. ): I feel sad. Really.

2009-07-23T22:19:00.002+08:00

I believe many of us had heard of Charmaine, the little girl who's ill and needs treatment urgently. But it's a large sum of money we're talking about, and it has since moved the nation to start raising charity funds for her.

Read about her on her blog, it's really touching. And this is her official site. She's living with her mum, Cynthia and she's a single mum, I believe she's very strong to be handling all these. (:

Doing my tiny bit to blog about this, and hope to raise more awareness through spreading the words. (:

Lastly, Nuffnang is also joining efforts to unite all bloggers to raise funds for Charmaine. Do what you can too, at least blog about this and let your friends know that they can make a different in a little girl's life. It's a life we're talking about, something we're not able to put a price for.

I finally did my mini lanyard with blings for my Blackberry. (: I super like it so much I keep looking at it.

My right index finger's nail broke. -.-" Now I feel very weird with 2 short nails.

2009-07-22T15:37:00.002+08:00

Last Saturday, met up with secondary school mates to catch up a little. (: We had a nice dinner at Earle Swensens at Vivocity and chilled a little at the sky garden. It's been very long since I met with most of them. (:

All smiles. (:

We also did a small card for Ernest as he's leaving for further studies in San Francisco, U.S.A. Hope he'd like it enough with all our wishes and blessings written on the card. (:

Some candid photos. (:

These few days had been rather bored. Doing some online shopping and looking for my precious girl's stuffs. (: It's so warm and humid these days, it's getting irritating. It's not me, it's the weather. -.-"

Nothing much to blog about actually. (: Wait till I do my nails again then blog with my nails photo. LOL.

2009-07-12T18:22:00.002+08:00

Baby and I went to Weiting's 21st birthday and farewell party at Coasta Sands Pasir Ris. And goodness, the whole place is a yellow haven! Every single possible thingie is yellow. And the theme is apparently yellow, so alot of people dress in yellow! OMG! Anyway, there's alot of people there and it's really happening. Too bad the weather got bad and kept raining. ): Weiting's birthday cake is super big, thick and yummy! It's from Secret Recipe and chocolate flavoured. (:

These are the only 2 photos I took. (: And I look darn FAT! -.-"

Baby came over and fetched me to go to Coasta Sands, and he dumb-dumb, put a gift for me at the back seat, thinking I wouldn't look behind. Then, so nice help me put my Longchamp handbag behind when I go down. But I turned behind to take my bag to return the rented DVDs, and I saw my gift! A Domo-Kun! It's a vibrating massager! Hehes, he knows I like it very much, but just never buy cos he keeps exclaiming that it's an ugly monster. So he bought it on his own to surprise me. LOL.

Then, he says still got stuffs at his place to surprise me. I guessed it - bedroom slippers! (: Cos I've been searching high and low for them. But everywhere also don't have nice and cute ones. So he got 2 pairs for me from Junction 8. Exactly what I want some more! (: Pink bunny and the white mehmeh. (: I love it so much, thank you baby, again! ^^

These are my cuties! (:

Me with Domo-Kun! (:

Later at night, I pestered baby to bring me to eat prata at Thomson. (: Caught the movie, Obsessed, at the very wulu Eng Wah at Toa Payoh. The whole screening only got 4 persons including me and baby. LOL! Anyway, the show's not very nice. Just a psycho bitch doing all the delusions and causing troubles.

Fatty baby waiting for food. (:

All rights. That's all for now, going to grab a plate of home-cooked bee hoon and then have a bath and go out for shopping and meet up with baby after his soccer. (:

Yours truly. <3

2009-07-10T03:33:00.003+08:00

I get bored after watching CSI Miami on Channel 5, so did some search on the stuffs I drink almost daily. And they make me feel like super healthy. LOL. Normally I do take them, but maybe not as intense and I often consciously remind myself to have more of them. (:

1st, mr. bean's soya bean drink and sometimes beancurd. They are definitely better than Jollibean, which never fails to have residue, lost of them, and very not tasty with the grainy texture. *yucks*

2nd, of course my all-time favourite, HL milk. I only drink the plain one. I don't know what's the banana milk doing in the market. -.-"

3rd, bird nest from Eu Yan Sang, mine's reduced sugar. Very conscious of sugar intake cos I don't wanna end up with high blood pressure or high sugar level and complicate my pregnancy. Anyway my intake for this is not frequent at all, my mother-in-law just got baby to buy 2 packs for me to take. (:

Ending my very non-meaningful entry with a sensual photo of Victoria and David Beckham. A new advertisement for Emporio Armani. (:

She just makes boypants sexy. (:

2009-07-09T02:01:00.002+08:00

Baby and me went to Tampines 1 again. (: Went to Japanese Gourmet Town, Manpuku to have our late lunch at 4PM. And then off to shop around at Tampines Mall and also Century Square.

Ta-bao J.Co donuts home and watched DVD. (: If only life could stay on like this. 3 months more and my life would be more than just myself. ^^

Donuts are simply satisfying.

(:

2009-07-07T01:46:00.004+08:00

There's a damn problem with either Mozilla Firefox or it's Blogger. I believe to be the latter. -.- It's getting irritating whenever I upload photos and it simply doesn't or refuse to show in the 'Compose' tab. How annoying. Anyway, IE worked for me. (:

Woke up early today to do nails with Jasmine at Shirley's place. (: I simply love my nails, adore them. ^^

Hubby came and fetch me at Plaza Singapura and we headed to Marina Square for movies and a little shopping. (: Watched the movie, I Love You, Man, it's quite a funny show, and quite some sexual references. The guys in the theatre were laughing their asses off. LOL. Shopped around and had Yoshinoya. And home sweet home, we watched Harry Potter for the third day in a row and we've competed all the 5 DVDs prior to the upcoming one that's screening on 16th July. (:

Me and fatty baby. (:

My face grew chubbier, it's so damn obvious. It's so irritating, cos I've another 3 months to go. -.-" Anyway, the night's so cooling, hope I don't have insomnia problem tonight. (:

Good nights, world.

2009-07-06T01:37:00.003+08:00

I blog so little-ly nowadays. Cos I'm out of content to write about. I guess no one is ever gonna be interested in my lifestyle now. Sleep late, wake up late, surfing the net, looking through sprees for cute baby stuffs, going out for walks, baby comes brings me out for dinner, going shopping, etcs. It's just such mundane stuff, I feel bored even to blog. Thus, the lack of blog entries.

Anyway, tomorrow's gonna be manicure day again. I feel very happy everytime I get to go to manicure. Cos once again, my nails are gonna be repainted with a new color, and this makes me happy. (: I like my nails! Gonna go with Jasmine later at 11AM. Quite long didn't meet my friends, been in my cave, like for ages. LOL. Anyway it's also better in a way, cos the H1N1 swine flu is getting horrible. And I am in the high risk category, I don't wanna get infected and get myself hospitalised. (:

Tomorrow I'm gonna go settle my iBanking problem, so that I can shop online at ease. (: And then, go shopping for my Blackberry Storm, which I still love very much! Then go exercise and keep myself active. (:

And, blog again with my nails photos the next time. ^^

<3

2009-07-01T00:27:00.002+08:00

It's my daddy's birthday on 30th June. (: Just had dinner at Jurong West 490 with the whole family and it's home time with my dearest hubby again. (: Watched the show Disturbia, starring Shia LaBeouf, the main lead in Transformers, on DVD. Not bad, I should say.

Next, it's massage time and then baby heads back home. Tomorrow's gonna need to return the DVD, shun bian go buy 4D. Wahaha! Then if I'm not lazy, maybe go to some POSB to get my iBanking fixed, cos I forgot my ID or my password, or both. Totally no clue at all. -.-" And when I'm home, I often shop online, needing to transfer money, it just gets so inconvenient.

Enough of ranting. I'm gonna need to sleep early. Only managed to sleep at 6AM yesterday, and bloody got freaked out but the massive wall drilling caused by the construction of lifts at my block at 8AM and 2 hour interval of 30 minutes of constant drilling.

I'm so lack of sleep now.

2009-06-30T01:07:00.000+08:00

I have bak kwa at home! (: And it makes me very happy. Cos I can kiap it with Gardenia bread for breakfast, or eat it when I want to munch on something. Just collected my Daniel Yam dress at IMM's Presto Drycleaners and I'm glad it's back! (: I think baby and me goes to IMM kinda often, more than twice in 7 days. LOL. First 3 hours parking free is a good incentive to go over, and it's near my place. (: I'm blogging nonsense. -.-"

Okays, I don't get mood swings during these times, but sometimes when baby irritates me and i wanna have my way, I tell him this, "If you make me angry again, next time when Baby Lala's out, I'd ask her to call you 'Uncle'!" And my dearest hubby will pinch me, what a good husband I have. LOL, just wanna share this mini joke. I think it's funny.

Potential uncle-to-be. (:

There's gonna be IKEA sales coming up. So don't miss it! (: I'm definitely going, IKEA is coolness.

My love! <3

2009-06-28T19:36:00.003+08:00

I'm so tempted to buy Louis Vuitton Monogram Canvas Neverfull GM! Look at how darling she is. (: Click here for LV's site. GM's the large size, I'm lookin at MM too, the medium one. But I think I suits larger bags. Someone please buy it for me. If not, transfer 1,100 dollars to my bank account and I'd thank you for the rest of my life. LOL!

I so want this! (:

Had steamboat yesterday at Bugis with my dearest hubby. No nice photos taken, so no photos on that. After that had our usual Kinokuniya shopping, and my Vivi magazine's out already. The August 2009 issue. (:

Namie Amuro on cover. (:

This morning woke up super early to have breakfast at Toa Payoh market, after that went home and sleep again. (: Before going out, I saw a spider jumping about on the wall, so I told hubby to kill it, or bring it out. And he stupidly tell me, 'Never mind la, it will slowly jump its way out thru the window!' -.-"

Blog again. (:

2009-06-26T01:00:00.002+08:00

Slept over at baby's place last night and I nua-ed till super late, like 3PM then wake up. Haha! Don't know what made me so tired, anyway, had duck rice and milk tea with pearls at Toa Payoh for lunch and headed home to watch some DVD. And after that, it was napping time again. LOL!

Never mind, made ourselves useful later on. We decided to cook fried rice! (: Okays, it was just me who wanted fried rice, cos it's the easiest to cook! (: So both of us went to Shop'n'Save and buy some long beans and luncheon meat. Wanted to have some prawns in our delicacy, but it comes in too big packages, so gave it a miss. And also abalone mushrooms we both love. (:

Came home and unpacked the groceries and time to have a fun time cooking! (: Only halfway then realised there's no eggs at home! So baby went downstairs to get a tray and we finished our fun cooking session! (:

Ta-dah!

My egg-fried rice! (:

It turns out not salty enough, but it's okays, our first attempt to cook together and it's still nice! (: More in the future! 24th June was my routine checkup with my gynae at KKH, The Private Suite. And everything went well, gonna update my other blog in a minute. More details there, with photos of baby lala. (:

Love all. <3

2009-06-24T14:17:00.002+08:00

I'm going to rot in my house, facing the lappie most of the time. Google-ing non-stop, and doing some stuffs. Thanks for so many blessings from all my friends, be it on my tag board, Facebook, emails or anything of such sort! (: I'm so happy to share my happiness with everyone, and I hope you'd be equally glad for me too. (:

Just got some photos from Xueting. (:

I love you girls! (:

Lastly, this s a very impromptu photo taken after the solemnization. (: Very funny looking me with my adoring bouquet of gerberas. (:

Yours truly. ^^

2009-06-24T01:16:00.002+08:00

I'm super happy I've completed my previous long post. Very accomplished and felt really good. (: Updated my Facebook, check out my profile here. (: I'm married and it's somehow a brand new magical feeling. Something I didn't thought I would have imagined.

Anyway, back track a bit, to blog about Father's Day. Had a simple dinner with my family together with baby. (: It's a nice, cheap, and wulu tze char place at somewhere near Keat Hong. We ordered 5 dishes together with rice, for the 5 of us, and it's less than 50 bucks. (: Dishes were fish head curry, sambal kang kong, black bean soup, claypot toufu and sweet and sour pork. (:

Yummlicious food finds. ^^

Baby inside of my tummy is doing somersault just a minute ago. LOL. (:

Signs off with my cute Mehmeh. (:

2009-06-23T17:59:00.000+08:00

I'm back with quite some collages and some happiness to share! (: My besties all had known from the start, so now let me share this happiness with every one! ^^

20.06.2009, is my date of R.O.M, which is the day of the solemnization of my marriage with dearest boyfriend. (: Quick, go buy 4D, 2006! I can't buy in on the day after my ROM. Anyway, it's all fun and laughter, together with joy and blessings and that very special day, last Saturday. (: Let me share my whole day with every one.

Woke up darn early on Saturday, 8.30AM, when I had a super hard time sleeping the night before. So I only managed to fall asleep at around 4+AM! And goodness, the day started damn stonely, I brought all my barang barang that I pre-packed the night before, and took a cab to Huisi's house. (: Luckily she already woke up, so I hanged the Daniel Yam dress at her place and both of us went across the street to do my hair, while she trimmed her bangs. (:

Hair styling took less than an hour and we went to Mac to get a iced lemon tea and then headed back her place to do makeup. I did makeup for myself. (: And, to add, I'm feeling damn stoned even till then, it's really tiring! Then 10 mins later, Xueting and Munshee came and join us at Huisi's place. And they are both in white, just like me. So Huisi chose a white dress too, and Munshee ironed for her. LOL!

So after my makeup for 20+mins, I went to change into my dress and put on my shawl and super blinged heels! (: And off we go to my solemnization. Reached there slightly earlier and then waited for the balance to reach. (: Took some photos before the ceremony started.

Me and my dearest friends! Munshee, Jasmine, Huisi, Xueting and Huiting! ^^

With my mum, my mother-in-law, cute cousin and my sister. (:

Now for the photos snapped during the solemnization. Some ugly, some candid, some sweet ones. (: And of cos, all thanks to Xueting for taking these wonderful photos with my camera.

Candid me. It's really too solemn that I do not know where to place my eyes at. LOL.

Some really funny looks of him and me. It's so odd I kept nudging him. =p

Now, for the exchange of rings. (:

When he put on mine on my finger. (:

The smiley me with our rings. (:

These photos were taken with Nikon DSLR by Jasmine! (:

This is the funny exchange of vows. It's funny, cos I have to repeat after the solemnizer. And see the photo with my dad and sis on the bottom left? So cute! (:

Next, the 'groom may kiss the bride', it's very classic. And it's funny, if there happens to be a video. Cos I was pretty shy having the whole silent room looking at both of us kissing! You can't imagine that. (:

Look at my cute cousin, covering her eyes! All rights, kiss is subtle and luckily it's over in a blink of eye. It's quite weird having a whole room of eyes looking at you kissing your husband. -.-

The mums signing the marriage certificate as witnesses. (:

Us, signing and our solemnizer signing. And we're pronounced as man and wife after this. (:

Oh, and I have to, have to blog this. My hubby did something funny during the solemnization. When we're told to sign on the duplicate of the certificate of marriage, he had to sign first. And he didn't managed to sign properly, he just laughily told me that his hands are trembling! Goodness, how am I supposed to help. But I really think it's funny, cos I really could see his hands shaking. and he just couldn't hand the pen properly! That's a very funny part of the solemnization I didn't get the chance to share with every one that day. (:

Following next is a massive photo taking session with all the friends and family. (: And I kept hanging on the smile till I totally smiled numbly. LOL!

Man and wife, from 20th Jun 2009. (:

This candid shots are funny. (: Bouquet covering my face, me pouting, the solemnizer looking at his watch. LOL.

I love the bouquet of gerberas, both white and pink is really nice! (: No they are still thriving in my living room, blossoming! (:

It's all the photo-takings that numbed our smile. =p

With my family and his. (:

Family and friends! (:

My best friends! (:

With in-laws, my grandma and grandpa, cute cousin and dearest ex-colleagues at Warner. (:

It's some light refreshments time after the mass photo taking. (: But we're still taking photos in the other room! LOL!

Dearest Weiting and Pauline! (:

Babes in white. ^^

With hubby's besties, Laoyuan and Kwok Wai. (:

Here are some gorgeous shots of my dearest with me. (:

Pauline, Weiting.

Xueting, Jasmine.

Huisi, Munshee.

Huiting. (:

There are more photos taken with Jasmine's DSLR photos which she sent me too. But abit pointless to post two sets of similar photos. So I'm keeping them as memories. (:

There's another happiness to share with you guys. (: I'm with a baby, six months pregnant. And it's a baby princess! (: To read slight more about my pregnancy, you can go to this other blog of mine I set up just for my baby. (: Click this link.

This are the scans of my baby and a side profile of my tummy. (:

Ending this entry here. If there's any words you'd like to leave for me, do tag the Cbox and I'd reply you when I check my blog the next time. (:

Love my baby. (:

I have near 200 photos to go through and edit before I can start blogging my next entry. And the thought of starting off to edit the photos, is making my mind stone a little. LOL.

I'd blog more tomorrow, so stay tuned. (:

2009-06-19T01:34:00.002+08:00

I have hard times trying to get to sleep almost every single day for almost 2 weeks. I spend 1 to 2 hours flipping and tossing on my bed, thinking of way to sleep, to relax and to fall asleep! It's just so tough to fall asleep, even with air-conditioning on, so I don't think it's the weather. And it's draining my energy, somehow. And it's very annoying. Last night I managed to fall asleep only around 4+AM, and I got up at 9AM to get some stuffs done. How nice.

One random photo for today. (:

It looks dull even with the egg, solely cos of my living room's poor lighting.

Went to have manicure and pedicure session with Jasmine and Huisi. (: Love my long nails, and they're still going strong, I love them! And they are not extension. I've finally mastered the art of maintaining fingernails and not breaking/chipping them. LOL! And as the photos show, I still love pink darn lots. (:

Perfect! ^^

After Saturday, I shall blog a longer post, with lotsa photo, and lotsa information. (:

Love all! <3

2009-06-18T03:04:00.002+08:00

It's 3AM in the morning! Goodness. I just finished watching CSI Miami on Channel 5. (:

Printed some stuffs and now I'm going to sleep. Tomorrow's gonna be a rather long day for me.

Update again, good nights, ladies and guys. =)

<3

2009-06-16T01:51:00.001+08:00

I want to watch Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen! Sneaks on 23rd, and screening on 24th June. It's coming, and I can see my cutest Bumblebee again! (:

2009-06-13T14:13:00.002+08:00

Met up with Huiting at Jurong Point yesterday after a walk at The PC Show, like again. Anyway, I was late for around 45 minutes and this left Huiting alone in JP to shop. So sorry! =(

Anyway, we walked around and we chatted at Subway. Tried on quite some clothes and bought a dress and a bottom. (: Ended the day at Coffee Bean and the pasta just sucks. Boyfriend came over to fetch us home and we headed for supper after dropping Huiting at her place. (: Meet up soon again! (:

The very not nice pasta that has carrots and onions!

Now it's time to go for a cool bath. (: Damn this hot and humid weather, expecting to stretch till September! Kill me.

2009-06-12T01:22:00.002+08:00

I'm back from movies at GV Marina Square. And also The PC Show in Suntec. (: It's not as packed as last year. Maybe partially cos it's a Thursday today. Boyfriend bought a Canon Pixma printer within minutes entering the hall, and after some squeezing we went back to Marina Square to catch our movie, The Taking of Pelham 123. It's quite a nice movie, but I still prefer Drag Me to Hell. (:

Tomorrow's gonna meet up with Huiting, after a length of donkey years. LOL! (: Blog with more photos after that. (: For now, it's just boyfriend's photo, and of course, MINE! =D

Boyfriend with my Blackberry phone! ^^

Now my lovely photo. (:

2009-06-04T00:29:00.002+08:00

I'm finally blogging another photo. Wah, I really never fully utilize my camera for the whole of the past month! -.-" It's getting annoying cos I know I should! Anyway I went to have my nails done yesterday. And it's nice. I realise I really need manicure, like really manicured nails all the time. If not, my nails feel naked without colors on them! Toenails are still fine, cos I find them not so noticeable to me. (: But nails are a must!

So on this very fine day, I'm blogging about my well-maintained nails. (: Pink nails, like of course!

This makes me happy. ^^

Just came back from shopping at Ikea. And it's really fun shopping there. All the cupboards, tables, bed frames, sofas, drawers, mirrors, etc, never seems to run out. And it's always a long walk there, but amazingly I don't wear out easily there. (:

More to blog in days to come. Open up some happiness! (:

2009-06-02T01:03:00.002+08:00

I know I need to blog, but there's pretty nothing to blog about. Life's been revolving around work for the whole of last week, and I only managed to shop a bit on Sunday. (: On Saturday, boyfriend met me in town, and I ended up buying a mobile. Finally! It's my contemplation since late last year. This time it's Blackberry. So far I'm loving my mobile, though I've not started downloading applications and stuffs to play around. (:

I'm going for a manicure tomorrow after work. (: And I've gained weight! -.- This is a terrible nightmare for me. Blog more in near future.

2009-05-21T00:40:00.002+08:00

I'm going to meet Huisi after work tomorrow to do some essential shopping and some small little catch-ups. And I need magazines, more of them! Let's cross our fingers and hope the trip's gonna be a fruitful one. (:

To me, it's okay to make wild guesses and stuffs, but it turns out to be unhealthy gossip when you plainly speculate and go around telling people what you think should be the case and affirms your point of view on them. It's definitely not a kind of 'sharing', as proposed, for your kindest information. No doubt I can be very bitchy, or I can just keep everything to myself. You're just a rare specie that makes me lose the entire purpose of talking to you. And it makes my day to just not hear a thing from you, serious. You should be out of your comfort zone and realise you're not a pro afterall when you're out of there. At all. I just need to bitch cos I'm not someone you can spout nonsense about. But given your ignorance to majority of etiquettes, I spare you the agony of my thrashing all the crap out of you, and making you statement out all the untruthful comments of me. I'm not a tad interested in you, your speech, your action, your presence and your thoughts. It just spells out in three letters - IRK. It's good you know who I'm referring to, there's only one person. If you don't, just too bad for you.

Now, back to happier stuff - my own photo. I get very bored at home after playing 10 mins of Restaurant City and I edit photos la. (: So just look at me, will you. LOL!

And someone has to hit my head 738 times and knock it into my mind that it's unhealthy to stay up till so late.

It's not like I don't have to work. ):

2009-05-16T23:27:00.002+08:00

I just had a so-so bak chor mee at Thomson Road and I'm feeling very full now. And the best thing of this supper is that I learnt a lesson on parallel parking. Not at the expense of Honda Fit. But just standing by the road and watch this lady park.

As much as I want to stand up for debates about lady drivers 'lousy' driving skills, I really can't many a times. Okays, first let me tell you how to park your vehicle within 15 seconds, parallel-ly. (:

1) Reverse your vehicle and aim.
2) Continue reversing after striking the kerb.
3) Mount the kerb and turn your steering wheel back.
4) You're done!

And goodness! This worked for that particular lady driver at Sin Ming Road. I really gotta give her thumbs up for being able to park in such a way. Maybe you could try it, you'd never know, it's gonna be the fastest parallel parking for you, too. (:

LOLS!

Okays, I know this is a rather boring post, yet trying to be funny. But to see that happen right in front of your eyes is really astonishing, I must say. *giggles*

Ciaos. (:

2009-05-12T00:47:00.002+08:00

Went for boyfriend's friend's wedding dinner on Saturday at East Coast, Tung Lok Seafood. (: Prior to that, we visited the very bustling Tampines One and roamed around for around an hour. It's quite packed and parking queue is madness. Anyway, we made our way to East Coast at around 6.30PM. And we entered the dinner place at 7.30. Omigod, the dinner only serve at 9PM, when the invitation is at 7.30PM. LOLS! I'm pretty bored by then, what to do, it's a Chinese wedding dinner.

And when I get bored. -.-"

My dearest Mehmeh, cute me and dumb boyfriend.

Bride and groom doing the Chinese tea ceremony. (:

I ate until my stomach almost burst! Not that I'm tam jiak or what hors, just that I drank one large Mac's iced lemon tea, one large fries and one serving of milk tea. LOL! Caught the movie The Uninvited at Ang Mo Kio hub. It's quite an average horror flick, I should say. (:

Today after work, boyfriend came and fetch me and we had dinner at Vivocity. Kim Gary! Oh, and a photo with mask on. It's the in thing now. *giggles*

*smiles*

And to end off this entry, with a cam-whore photo of myself!

With much love. (:

Blog again, with more juiciness. =p

2009-05-09T02:50:00.002+08:00

I'm still awake at 3AM. Thinking about some very intimately personal stuffs. It's simply a waste of time. But since I couldn't get to sleep, so might as well.

Met boyfriend after my halfday for movie and dinner. He gave me a small bunch of roses. Haha, thought it should come with any reason or any particular occasion. So pestered him for a reason why he's giving me flower, he said, "These few days you seems to be unhappy, so I wanna give you flowers lors. Hope you'd be happier." (:

Ya, true, these few days I haven't really been happy, nor myself. It's really very difficult to say why. But I suppose it is what it is.

Roses are pink. (:

xoxo

2009-05-06T23:04:00.003+08:00

Just realised I didn't blog the photo I took at Kenny Rogers, so might as well all together today. (: It was Jasmine's birthday yesterday on 5th May! And I went for steamboat with her at Bugis. The steamboat soupie is nice and shiok, at least 7 times better than the ones I had at Suntec's Joaquim! LOLS! Happy birthday to you again, lovely BFF! (:

Xian De Lai! Yummy recommendation by Jasmine!

Just came back from Greenridge Pizza Hut. Had dinner with Filzah and chatted for awhile. (: More to catch up with you, babe! No photos taken cos I wasn't feeling very well.

I like my bangs alot, but kinda troublesome to keep them all covering my forehead at all times. LOL! You get it? -.- Troublesome la.

loves&hearts.

2009-05-05T00:09:00.006+08:00

Lin Xin Yi.
(:

I already like this song, but she makes this more lovable. (:

She sang Avril Lavigne's song pretty well too!

(:

Na Ying's song. (:

(:

2009-05-02T13:21:00.002+08:00

Signed in MSN and saw MSN Today with Hugh Jackman photos, so naturally I clicked on it. Look at what a cute alpha male can do. LOLS!

He's so big and he does this 'V' sign, it's cute! (:

X-Men! (:

Anyway, a small update of photos taken at Attica last night. (: Just got the photos from Jasmine on MSN. (:

It's me with Jasmine and Huisi. (:

Next update probably soon. (:

2009-05-02T02:03:00.002+08:00

I'm back from Jasmine's mini advance birthday celebration. (: A very simple one actually. Met up with Huisi, Munshee and of course Jasmine, on Labour Day. We headed to Marina Square for Kenny Rogers. Food was pretty fast, and everything was really just so-so.

Anyway, we had our zhng-ing Huisi session today too. (: Though I were pretty much busying with my own face rather than Huisi's. (: But all turned out well eventually! Cabbed down to The Butter Factory initially, but the queue there was horrendous! Goodness sake, it's not moving a single bit at all. Well, it moved cos people like us left the queue after waiting for 30 minutes futilely.

So we decided to go to Clarke Quay, and eventually went for Attica, which offered free entry and free baggage service. (: Left quite early around 1+am and now I'm home! (:

Before I end my post, just a current update of my current haircut. (:

xoxo

2009-04-29T23:33:00.002+08:00

I just went for a haircut and a hair dye at Two Way Holistic at Jurong West. (: Re-dye my hair to a slightly brighter color, and cut my fringe straight. No photos taken though. Blog again when I meet the girls this coming Saturday. (:

It's really a short week for me this week. I was on MC on Monday, and this coming Friday it's Labour Day! At least I'm looking forward to the end of Thursday.

It's been a few frustrating days. I only feel better when I look down on my fingers and find such a beautiful set of barbie pink manicure.

2009-04-29T00:39:00.002+08:00

It's been a few days since I last blog. I've been feeling easily lethargic lately. And somehow it's starting to get disturbing. -.- On a random note, my finger nails are in barbie pink and I seriously think that they are gorgeous! If you love pink, go get it. Mine's O.P.I's colorcopia, if I'm not wrong it's D.C Cherry Blossom, not shown in the following bigass photo of mine. (: *giggles*

xoxo

You know what I need and what I want.

2009-04-25T11:56:00.002+08:00

Yesterday after work, Jasmine and Huisi and myself headed down to Clarke Quay for the party below. (:

We're all adorning adidas. (:

This is at IndoChine. (:

The guy in red is Dharni! (:

I'm very lazy to update, cos the weather's so hot!

2009-04-19T16:44:00.007+08:00

I bought the adidas shoes mentioned in my previous entry! (: And I'm very glad! My dumb boyfriend says why I let the whole world know what size am I, especially when I have large feet. -.- I'm UK 7!

After some shopping in Paragon and Takashimaya, I bought Happy Meal from McDonald's as dinner! (: And so, we headed to The Butter Factory at One Fullerton, together with Huiling and her friend. I didn't catch her name, sorry! (:

Click to go to website. (:

Oh and forgot to mention on very important 'mission' of the day - beautifying our dear friend, Huisi! (: Jasmine and myself get the chance to have a hands-on experience to do the 'makeover' for Huisi! (: We applied eyeshadow, eyeliner, falsies, cheek highlighter and blusher for her! It's really very fulfilling to see Huisi so pretty for that night and it's really lotsa fun! (: Glad she turned out very well, indeed. And her eyes were really intense! (:

After the beauty make-up session! (: Pretty!

Following here are the photos taken at The Butter Factory!

Group photos!

I love the pink wallpaper there! That cute rabbit and flower!

The girls at the party! (:

More photos! Jasmine and I can take the same photos so many times! LOL.

The shot glasses and us! (:

Vodka cranberry and us. =)

And this is a very classic side of Jasmine. (:

Pretty Huisi and pretty me. (:

The cam-whore-in-the-loo moments.

We also ordered 2 dozens of shots, Sex on the Beach and another one, I don't know what's that, some shot that sounds like 'Carbonizer'. LOL!

The ladies and the shots. (:

We've finished every single drop!

And these are the drinks we had! *yum seng*

And it's dancefloor time! (: Songs were kinda weird at first. And we slowly got used to them. The Butter Factory's crowd's so much better than Double O. No zillions of Malays, no Bangaladeshi, no uncles! It's mostly working adults or mature people. (:

And best part of the dancefloor action came when one of their resident DJ, DJ Dharni came! His beatboxing is great! (: Though he's not cute, but he's impressive!

DJ Dharni. Visit his site here.

Lastly, photos taken at the dancefloor. (:

Yours truly (without Huisi's finger poking my face after the photo's taken),

xoxo

2009-04-17T22:46:00.001+08:00

I went to Vivocity for dinner after work today. And I saw this pair of Adidas shoes that I really love. But, but, but! No more size for me! ): And tomorrow I wanna call up all those adidas shop in Singapore and ask them for this shoe in UK 7! ): *sobs*

):

2009-04-08T22:09:00.002+08:00

Being random here, presenting to you guys my favourite fruit. GRAPES!

And I only eat green, seedless ones! So far Thompson's never failed me. (:

I love grapes! (:

2009-04-06T23:58:00.002+08:00

It's baby's 26th birthday! (: I lazed till around 1PM then went to Manhattan Fish Market in Bishan Junction 8 to have our brunch. A hearty one. We each had a mushroom soup, a drink, a maincourse and a mudpie to end the meal with! (: It was so filling that I really felt like a pig. Anyway, J8's MFM's got this set lunch promotion going on from 12PM all the way till 5PM. Quite reasonable pricings, and there's a bunch of aunties and uncles going there and dine in! (:

Our main courses and ultra sinful mudpie!

I hate the mushroom soup, cos it has celery in it! They tastes so raw! *yucks*

After our sinful meal, we dragged to our vehicle and headed to Pasir Ris! (: Setting off to Pasir Ris Farmway to look at puppies! They are really so adorable when you see they jumping around. (:

The top photo shows toy poodles and they are simple too cute! Only 2 months!

We went around a few pet shops and headed back home to have dinner with his family at around 5+PM. But I'm hungry now already! There's work tomorrow, and I dread it! ):

Rights, that's about it, blog again soon. (: Take care, babes!

Dumb boyfriend and me. (:

Not forgetting to wish baby happy 26th.

<3

Oh, and I must say, I'm starting to enjoy PhotoScape a alot more! (:
