Been one year and still going Strong!

Dec 1st is our 1 year anniversary.

Gosh.. how time flies.. It has been a wonderful fun year, went through thick and thin, being their for eachother and getting to know about eachother more.

Now we know what we are thinking without saying a word, and able to embrace eachother's flaws.
He knows how to manage my foul mood swings, and I know how to tame his temper. :)

Reading this last year's entry feels like it just happened yesterday.

He still makes me laugh, until now he still doesnt like to say mushy things, he still hates shopping (he says online shopping is a God send)and we enjoy every minute of being together talking crap and irritating eachother.

this pix is exactly a year ago at winebar - where we first met two weeks before and end up being together :)



I love you baby and 2008 will be a even better year..

House makeover for the princess

Ever since my car arrived, i have been making frequent trips to Ikea. haha. as expected..

And i am busy buying furnitures for my cats! Gosh the new designers from Ikea understands the weakness of pet owners.. we will buy anything for our furry babies as long as is cute!

And this is how i splurge and spoil my two princess.

I think my babies make the product look good. Ikea people should contact me, and with just a small fee (just enough for my another LV bag will do:P) i will give them rights to use my babies pix on their product.. and I am telling you the sales will soar...!!

My favourite darlings

One of my favourite pix of them together.. in 2004 they spotted a bird sitting on the window ledge outside..

Imagine you walk into the room and spot this two jokers looking out the window..
you will definetely go "awwwwwwwwwwwwww....."



Close up.. so cute and lovely!

Totally hooked on Online shopping!

I knew it.. Once i start something i get hooked.
That is what happened, when i first went for facial.. then manicure..

Though i have been working as an e-marketer for past 5 years, i refused to do any transaction online.. I did not like to expose my credit card or my personal info to some online shop.. Also i firmly believe you need to try it on before paying for it.

Until last month, my dear shophaholic buddy Mich 'forced' me to order something so that 'we' can share the delivery charge.. And after 2 weeks the item arrived, and as expected it was a total disaster!
One of the singlet didnt come with the vest as it was shown in the pix (and i paid 28 pounds for that stupid singlet! xtually it is not that bad..), and the tshirt a size too big.

Then as the USD is getting cheaper we decided to shop at urbanoutfitters.. which when i am in US, i dont even look at the shop.. but things are so cheap now we started to shop.. which now 3 weeks passed, i still donno where is the stuff.. stuck at vpost?

Then the items i ordered last week arrived yesterday from UK, and my my my.. Dont i just love the stuff i bought this time! Though again size a little bit big, but who cares... And it is the shiok-ness you feel that you know you are the only one wearing this in Singapore! (unless someone shopped at the same online store n happenes to have same taste or went to UK to get it.. watever)

Why i prefer online shopping now?
1) It is as Mich says, it feels like Christmas.. Waiting for the things to arrive and when you unwrap the registered pacakge (smells like overseas too!), it is like opening a christmas pressie.. :D
2) Saves so much time. When i go Orchard, i walk around not expecting what i am looking for.. try it on then think then not feeling sure if i really want it or not then leave it and go home. Next day i decide i want it so i have to go all the way back to Orchard.. When online, you sit comfortably at home look at the design, watch the catwalk, imagine a bit.. then click! transaction is done.
3)I am into Jersey material for sometime now.. In singapore, nice jersey designs tops or bottoms are so limited. its all the same stuff.. In UK, there are so many designs and come in different colors!

It's absolute COOL-ness!

Introducing my God Nephew

It was my God nephew's one month old party:)

Shane Lee.. beautiful cupcakes!


Isn't he so adorable!


my pretty pretty God niece Elyssa. all grown up 2 year old!


hehe and yes.. I cant wait to get married and have my own! :) haha
till then i will spoil these two as much as I can! :P

My TWO love..

Crayon follows me everywhere.. she is more like a dog. I call her name she will sprint towards me.. She is so affectionate and shows me how much she loves me everyday.. She talks to me and hates when I am getting ready to go out.. She wakes me up every morning before the alarm goes on. But on Saturday and Sunday (I have no idea how she knows is a weekend!) she will sleep till noon with me.. She needs me to go to sleep at night and she hugs my leg tightly to go to sleep.. And Crayon decides the boyfriend for me.. If she hates this guy means he's not the right one.. She peed on one of the guy's pants I dated before..! She obviously didnt like the guy and i guess i trust her instict because obviously he was not the right one.. if not I wouldnt have met my BF whom i am madly in love with and whom Crayon adores..!

Polly is icy cold just like her blue eyes. But she greets me at the door when I come home. She will sit with me on the sofa when i work and occasionally bangs her head on my back to acknowledge she is behind me and wants a scratch on her back.. She shares pork floss and KFC with me. Most of the time she ignores me but when I am feeling down she will come and sit quietly next to me..

I love these two to death!! Yes.. I am obsessed with my two babies..! Tell me.. how not to?

KL Shopping trip

It was fun with lots of shopping!
Actually NOT much of shopping.. only 2 skirts, 1 pair of shoes, a makeup, curtains, and 2 tshirts - one for my brother and my darling.. But i spent the most compared to others. (watz new?) I calculated yesterday and i spent SGD 805 on above items.. but not as much as i thought so I am doing pretty well for overseas shopping trip..

Well except the fact that i spent $450 the day before I left to KL on 2 tops and 1 pants.. and online shopping at ASOS... haiz.. and I just ordered a white Longchamp bag yesterday... It was spring/summer collection, so the shop has to go and bring it over... it is a beautiful bag...! which i am planning to use as a gym bag...
Anyway totalling up, for just past 1 week i spent about 1.5k on shopping.. so enough is enough!

KL was fun.. The first class bus was just AWESOME!
Had AW, dunkin donuts, asam laksa and KL Velvet!! Yeah!!

After the shopping spree, on our way back to the hotel - KLCC behind us..


KL Zouk! was bizarre.. Friday night I was at Winebar in SG, and on Sat night, I am in Velvet at KL!
Really appreciate the new law in Singapore.. banning smoking in pubs.. and in KL Velvet, the people r just so rude!

4. Stand Up!!...

Stand for something or you will fall for anything. ..

"Do not worry about anything; instead PRAY ABOUT EVERYTHING."
Philippians 4:6

the doughnut craze

My colleague's friend lined up for dont know how many hours for that donut at Cityhall..

My verdict?

Dont try it. Don't bother. It tastes the same as the ones you buy at HDB bakery shop. its normal. It's soggy. It's blah...



If you want a better donut in SG, go to taka B1 - there is this donut stall which is sooo much better!

Obviously those who are lining up wasting their precious minutes or hours of their lives, have never tried the wonderful Krispy Kreme.. poor souls.. i pity them..



ahhh the wonderful krispy kreme.. My friend came back from melbourne over the weekend and he specially hand delivered my lovely krispy kreme doughnuts!! it was heavenly.. the best ever..

i am telling you. once you had one bite of krispy kreme glazed donut, you will never ever look at other donuts! it melts in your mouth... not joking..!! ahhhhhhhhhh..

heading down to KL this weekend.. and the next best option to Krispy Kremes? DUNKIN DONUTS! yeyyyyy~~

My favourite flowers

I love flowers.. in all types and colors..
Especially these are my all time favourites which i will probably have for my wedding :P and have meanings of the flowers too! -

1) Orchids - Love, beauty, refinement, beautiful lady
2) White Daisy - Innocence, loyal love, purity, I'll never tell.
3) White Lily - Virginity, purity, majesty. It's heavenly to be with you.
4) White tulip - Perfect lover, frame
5) baby breath - Innocence, pure of heart
6) Freesia - trust, Innocence
7) Cosmos - beautiful

(seems like i am seriously innocent and pure :P)

In singapore you hardly get across Freesia and Cosmos.. And i relate these two flowers to Korea with lot of memories..

Freesia is a small flower and its very fragrant. you have a small stalk in the room, and you have a house scented like freesia.. You usually have this in winter.. I love it in yellow especially.. I came across at a florist in Taka and was so happy but it was like 18 bucks for a small stalk! so expensive!!


Cosmos.. you usually find it end of summer going autumn.. when there is cosmos you know autumn is coming.. or i will say you know summer vacation is over and new school term is starting REAL soon :P
you will not give cosmos as a bouquet. usually you will keep it between pages in ur books in different colors to dry it. it is spotted by the roadside.. and i love in white and in pink the most..

I miss Korea.. I miss end of summer going autumn..

My weekend!

It has been three weeks since my mom has been here and has been great..
home cooked meals, clean house, laundry all done .. heh no i don't see my mom like a maid.. she is just purrfect - doing all the house chores plus her daily activities like shopping and going for hi-teas! I dont know how she does it!
but i guess we women are good at multi-tasking :D

We can work till 6pm, still can go home cook dinner, breastfeed the baby, watch tv dramas, clean house, make hubby happy.. are we a super woman or what!
kudos to women!

Thursday..
My God-niece Shane Emmanual Lee is born! There were fireworks for his grand entrance to this world.. I am so happy for Esther and Shawn's addition to the blessed family.. once i have my car to drive to their plc (sis, your house was a bit far!), soon i will be stalking my pretty god-niece and cutie god-nephew..! and do my duty as a super-aunt!

Friday..
Went over to my bb house to see how his pets r doing - an arowana which i named "nesh-ri" and a small one dont remember what "brand" which i named "yoyo". Arowana is doing very well.. at beginning didnt understand why this fish costs a few grand. but this Arowana is quite an acquired "taste" i should say. I begin to like it.
and.. it is amazing how the fish recognise me. nesh-ri doesnt really like me (i guess it's jealous cuz it's a "SHE") but yoyo is always so happy to see me. she will swim left and right up and down follow me around. Me and bb can just stand in front of the tank for an hour looking at e fish and i get amused by how it eats e live worms. yeeeeek..
I dont like gold fish and those aquarium fish. Cuz when young my mom will always flush them down e toilet when they were dead. And i will have nightmares that it will swim back up middle of e night...
Then we were almost late for our midnight show, so drove reaaaaal fast to vivo and caught Bourne Ultimatum.. quite cool. i like Matt Damon.

Saturday..
I went to perm my hair again! this time it is much better. hope it last at least two weeks this time :P
then went out with my baby..
He managed to figure out how to drive to fisherman village - elias park.. didnt know it was such a short 15mins drive from my plc! I always have this feeling that Elias park is super far. We had couple of beers and we were already feeling drunk!
It is nice there at night with cool breeze and coverband songs. and the light went out several times due to short circuit or what, but that made it even more surreal! really feel like u r in overseas by the beach having a good hoe. Cant wait till Dec when we head out to Bali!

Sunday..
Pastor Prince preached about being "worry-free". God is flowing us with all the blessings in finance, career, health, relationship and whatever you name it.. God has taken care of us in all areas already.. So do not worry.. bad things happen from the area you are most worried about. and that is so true. And i needed to hear this so badly.
Then went shopping w my mom.. So tiring.. and i just added another LV to my bag collection.. Thanks mom!! so happi...

And monday again.. another long week with series of meetings.. no more public hol till november! but will be heading to KL next weekend for a shopping spree.. that will do some good. :)

being late 20s means..

physically really challenged. you can feel it in your bones. I guess it's the age catching up.
They say once you hit 25, time flies real quick and suddenly you are looking at the big 3-0

How can I tell I am aging? Compared to early twenties to late twenties..

1) Use to take two days to recover from jet-lag. Now it takes one week.
2) Injuries i had when i was young - now I feel the after effects
3) I only needed 4 hours of sleep a day.. now at 1am, my brain is already asleep
4) hangover? now i need to sleep one whole day to recover
5) midnight shows? oh pls let me sleep..
6) Orchard road was my hang out during the weekends. Now I try to avoid as much as possible and go to neighbourhood malls. hooray to parkway and tampines mall!
7) I cant shop at Far East anymore.. I only go there to quickly get a haircut and get out.
8)During that time of the month, it is not only cramps now.. Migraines come with it too
9) I dare to voice out complaints and scold telemarketers
10) i wake up real early when the sun comes up. Feel guilty when i sleep till noon
11) I frown at teenagers - i feel the generation gap
12) Start to think how to invest my $$ and think about pension fund and retirement
13) Getting to be concerned about global issues - Go GREEN! RECYCLE!!
14) Quickly scan for a seat in MRT and rush in to sit down (so auntie!)
15) start to compare prices between market place and fair price
16) Always put on sun block with UV protection when i go out and eyecream is a MUST
17) Not keen on sweet desserts anymore - prefer soupy stuff
18) When go travelling prefer to take a slow stroll and appreciate the cultural stuff rather than roaming around shopping malls (unless in Paris for LV)
19) Financially independent - seriously everything comes out from my own pocket
20) My mom doesnt nag anymore :P
21) Prefer to drive slowly on 2nd lane compared to speeding away on ECP hitting 120km/hr few years back
22) buy more insurance
23) try to think back what have i been doing since 25
24) Prefer to hang out at home with dvds rather than hitting the clubs
25) Don't bother about what people think anymore- if i like u means i like u. i dont have to pretend to like u anymore
26) start to measure success
27) not thrilled about # of gucci bags i own - starting to look at new properties and how much the COE has gone up.. (but still dont mind getting more bags! :P)
28) after my degree i swore i will never study again. but now feel the urge to get masters
29) start to appreciate those that you never thought of before

yah.. so here it is.. being in late 20s. means grown up now?

Awesome Ambigram created by my darling

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
An ambigram, also sometimes known as an inversion, is a graphical figure that spells out a word not only in its form as presented, but also in another direction or orientation.
Douglas R. Hofstadter describes an ambigram as a "calligraphic design that manages to squeeze two different readings into the selfsame set of curves."
The first published reference to the term was by Hofstadter, who attributes the origin of the word to a friend. The 1999 edition of Hofstadter's Gödel, Escher, Bach features a 3-D ambigram on the cover.

Korean Hostage Situation

This is purely my own personal point of view... Everyone has been asking me what do I think of this whole thing...

I feel sorry and terrible for the hostages' families in Korea.. I can't even imagine what they are going through.. All i can do is pray for the family and hope they come back home safely..

But..

I think the church and the people who went there should be held responsible..
it is merely like 2 years ago when the korean was be-headed. They should have known the dangerous situation that was laid right in front of them so clearly.

I mean it is important to do God's work, but despite all the warnings and obviously knowing there is a war going on and still going ahead - i think that's selfish..

Today that church held the press conference and apologised to the nation..

My mom goes to missionary trips every year. She went to Egypt last year and Mongolia last month. However our church does not send them to the danger zones. Even there is a slight stress detected in that country, the church will immediately cancel the trip.

If my mom wants to go to Afganistan to do missionary work i will break her two legs (and maybe plus a arm) to make sure she cant go...

However i do pray for the situation to turn around and they will return safely..

Super Random post

I was in such a foul mood yesterday. i went to robinsons and i dropped and broke the xxx brand pore minimiser sample bottle.. but i was so kooool about it but Kelly wasnt. i argued that the bottle could be expired so the customers should be thanking me since they have to open a brand new tester bottle..
come and think of it... i should drop by later and check if it is indeed a brand new bottle.
Anyway it was by accident! not on purpose. but after that i felt so much better!
