Fully Occupied Day

I only managed to get out of bed at around 11.30am haha.. Was originally wanted to be up at around 10am. So ended up leaving my house at 12.30pm to head towards my friend's bb full month celebration. Reached that place at around 1.30am but none of my other friends are here yet so I had my lunch 1st haha.. Actually, there's really a lot of food! And the food is nice. That's the whole point anyway. When my friends finally came, we chatted with my friend with the baby as well, and we departed at around 6.15pm. So I was late for my swimming appointment with my other friend haha.. Ya, in the end, I went swimming -- finally. But I only managed to swim about 8 laps and I just stand there and talked to my friend lol. We are discussing about our dream lifestyle but the thing is. Actually, it's quite similar, it's just about how are we going to have that kind of lifestyle. Her suggestion was somehow similar to whatever suggestion that my other friend was suggesting during

New Year Resolutions

Well, it's a bit late but still, I want to write my new year resolutions now. And I shall achieve them. If I don't, I would like to engage your help in scolding me so that I can wake up the idea and work towards achieving my goals. Thanks a lot :) Exercise at least twice a week. (Yup, this week has met target) Read at least 6 chapters of book(s). 1 chapter a day, so 1 day rest la haha. If not quite hard to achieve ba I guess. That's all for now!

Forward Yoga

Well, after attending the forward yoga session this morning, I really felt that it's pretty much of a workout and I sweat a lot more than what I used to when I went for the yoga sessions at CC or even gyms. Also, the event is supposed to have quite a number of people but all pulled out except 2, and I'm one of the 2. At least I've a great workout haha. Need to locate my yoga mat so that I can do Yoga myself at home ba. I'm starting to like yoga again or at least I shall exercise more so that I'm more energetic and less tired. From today's shopping when I went out this afternoon, I bought a new dress @ $28. :D I think it's quite cheap ba, given that it was bought along city link mall. And the entire shop was on SALE, everything is $28! It's called Ztyle. This is actually the 1st time that I noticed the presence of that shop. Then I also bought 2 books to read and almost done with one of them.

Forward Yoga Weekend Event

Well, after going through the course to understand myself more last week, I shall implement the way of giving. Haha.. I shall donate more money than I usually do. For the time being, I shall start with the donation of $150 haha.. To help that earthquake place via the Yoga Event through Red Cross. Since I'm going there then might as well ba. So no need to go red cross specifically and donate, save my time and a trip haha.. Hopefully, my family will never come to know about it so that no one complains about it lol. I can't believe this.. In the end, everything also cannot tell them. For that amount, I'm still pretty comfortable with it ba. My dream is to be able to donate money to the needy without any heartache at all. Hopefully, my money will be able to help those people ba. At least, I've tried my best to put in my tiny effort in giving them a helping hand le. Plus, I get to do Yoga once again haha. Not bad ba. Kill 2 birds with 1 stone.

Running Mission Completed

Finally, I've completed my running mission for today. At least I did run and didn't ended up doing something else haha.. Well, but then my target was supposed to be running 3 rounds around my house area but ended up walking half of it haha.. Need to brush up on my stamina a bit more so that I don't feel so tired easily. I'll prefer to be as fit and healthy as before.

Running Tonight??

Well, I've planned to go running tonight haha.. But I wonder if I'll be able to complete the running process or ended up going home to eat and rest and stuff like that or not. But still, whatever it is, I really wanted to run. So I must start to imagine myself running later. Imagine that the weather is great and windy, prefect for running. And I shall get to run!!

Plaza Sing

Had dinner at Cafe Cartel today @ PS with a group of friends. Dunno why today so coincidence 'cos met 2 common friends in 1 day at the same location just after we split up and I went for present acquisition with one of my friends. Usually at most will meet say 0 to 1 uncommon friends loh.. Normally is not my friend, 'cos I quite hardly encounter friends along the way de. So it's really quite funny. And the best part is actually my friend's expression and reaction when he saw the 2 common friends. Haha. Then, we managed to buy baby stuff for another friend's bb full month this sunday. Yup, got gift for mother and the baby. I guess that my friend got a lot more heart than me ba haha.. 'cos It really didn't occur to me that also need to buy for the mother as well de. Some more, it exceeds my budget a little ba, but still ok la. I don't buy such things so often anyway.

Swimming that Got cancelled.

Well, we are supposed to go swimming tonight but then ermm.. In the end, due to forgot to bring some items, we just ended up eating @ KFC haha.. and Shopping @ Daiso LOL.. It's again the, we claimed that we wanted to go and exercise but ended up shopping. Now it has been postponed to friday instead. Hope that I do get to swim. :D All along I thought that in life, appointments should be made on a 1st come 1st serve basis. But now I've come to realise that sometimes, it can also be based on priority basis. Some ppl are just meant to skip the queue when it comes to such things.

Dinner @ Wisma

Went for eye brow trimming today at Brow Haus @ lvl 5 Wheelock's Place. Actually, it's really not bad as in it's fast and value for money, the service provided is actually more than the price we paid for according to the list of services provided in their flyers. Also fast => less pain. Hee.. Then we had dinner at some western restaurant where outside Wisma. Me and debbie had Western Mee Pok for dinner. We really told them we want mee pok for the noodle part haha.. So that's the western's version of seafood noodles (mee pok dry). Nana got the Kway Tiao. Yup, we also told them we wanted Kway Tiao lol.. Not sure how to describe this dish using the chinese version name so suan le ba.

Thanks..

I'm grateful to those that treat me to lunch today. Thank you. Talked about lots of things and came to understand more. Was on the phone for like 2.5 hrs or so ba, talking to 2 different friends consecutively lol. Felt clearer in life and stuff like that. Thanks.

Breath Work

Had a breath work session today and noticed that I was pretty distracted haha.. by the people around me and by the voices of people around me. Initially, I kept falling asleep. Then after that when I finally didn't I actually felt that my hands and arm was like having cramps and my entire body aches. Didn't see anything at all, it was all darkness for me. Perhaps 'cos I fell asleep for too long and was too distracted intially ba. There are people that can actually see visions of whatever that had happened in their lives. Some felt lifted and stuff like that. As for me, it's probably more of a nothingness feeling ba. After that session, when people actually discussed about sad things, I actually not as affected was I will be before that. In fact, I sort of no longer feel much other than being able to feel happy. Perhaps it's a good thing after all. Maybe it's just today haha..

Udders Ice Cream

Hmm, the queue was really long, it was like almost always queued till the door area. We heard from the boss that it's usually fri and sat nights that the business will be very good and tonight it was great! For someone like me that hated queuing also queued for it haha.. Well at least the ice cream didn't disappoint me. It's good. I heard from one of my friends that the Bailey's one is normal 'cos it just tasted like Bailey's. Yup, it does and it's pretty strong I guess. The other liquor ones are better haha.. Well, I'm already called an alcoholic when I said I wanted to eat the Bailey's one, was a little affected but doesn't really matter. After all, maybe I really am 'cos I love Bailey's haha... Had a great time catching up with them and chatting till we took the 2nd last train back, from the NEL, it's really the last train haha..

Celebration Tml

Hmm will be having a celebration for my friend's pregnancy haha.. cum gathering I supposed. Will be going to Novena Square and eating ice cream after that according to the SMS reminder lol.. I guess, after all, I'll get to try that Bailey's ice cream. Yup, I'll update my colleague about the taste since she told me about it yesterday and I shall get a chance to eat it tml. Yeah!! Sounds good. Looking forward to tomorrow night haha.. Good surprise ba I guess. I guess, after all everything also can celebrate de ba. Like today met up with a fren that I've not seen for quite long, the last time I saw was just coincidence nia. Maybe will organise more gatherings ba. If not just let my fren do the planning haha. I do prefer it that way then I just go can le haha.. Best!

Finally Got my Aussie Tix

Yup, after so long, finally got my Aussie Tix le. So it's now confirmed. Can apply for leave tml le haha. But my boss is not around so there's no one to approve it yet. Heard about the Bailey's ice cream from my colleague. Sounds nice but dunno when then will get to eat. If nice, I'll update her about it. Otherwise, 就算了吧.

Bubble Tea with "Beans" :P

Yup, today is friends gathering day. Looked forward to it 'cos it's a happy occasion haha. After all, I still find it entertaining to chit chat with my friends and laugh with them over some jokes and stuff. Today's Joke of the day is when I called the pearls of the bubble tea "beans" haha. It's pretty lame and a mistake of mine but apparently, they find it quite funny. It's even funnier when there's really red bean that can be added to the bubble tea. Haha. Will be buying tix to Aussie tomorrow after work. Finally really paying for it le. I guess, the dates should be more or less confirmed le ba.

Future Plans

I think, I shall continue to think about and start to layout what is it that I want to achieve in future and then I shall implement my plans. After all, if I keep thinking about it and trying to plan without implementing, nothing will ever happen de. The plan may still be a piece of paper or even in the form of brain waves, lingering around and not being concrete. It's time to take some action and put in more effort and determination. Haha.. After all, my 3 mins worth of enthusiasm is not going to get me anywhere. There must be a way to be happy and yet enjoy doing whatever, I'll need to do. And feel fulfilled doing it.

Busy Day

One of my collegues' high heel, looks pretty nice I felt Debbie's New Hair Cut! This morning attended a ex-colleague's ROM ceremony then went to the new Mall at Tampines for shopping haha.. Bought a top and jeans like bottom but need my friend's help to keep the clothes for me cos I still got wedding dinner to attend haha..

Cousin's Wedding Photos

Yup!! The photos are finally up!! But still got more to go 'cos too little time to upload The couple, aunt & my mum!

Cousin's Wedding Lunch

Was supposed to be early to watch her ROM but then 'cos I just couldn't wake up on time so we are late and just saw the later part of the ROM ceremony. Today's Wedding lunch was pretty long ba, it started around 1pm and ended at around 4.30pm or so 'cos we are the relatives ma, so there's tea ceremony and more photo taking session haha. From the photos taken of myself in my own camera, I think I've really grown fatter le. My face is pretty much rounder as well. Must be I eat too much and didn't exercise enough ba. I guess so. Must exercise more le I guess.

Booking of Air Tix

Met my friends today, was supposed to buy the air tix for my Aussie Trip but she actually can't confirm with us that everything is on and we will be able to go so. Need another day to confirm that lol. So we extended the tix and go again next wed to buy ba. What to do? Haha. And this coming weekend will be a very siong weekend for my wallet 'cos I've got cousin's wedding lunch (sat), 1 X friend's ROM in the morning (sun) then another 1 X friend's wedding dinner (sun). I really think that it's a lot of ppl getting married this month. 'cos I've never been to so many weddings before in 1 single month. I wonder if it's due to the year of tiger thing haha.. In Sep, there will be 1 more friend getting married and I'll be the sister again lol.. According to rumours, actually cannot be sister too many times but doesn't really matter la. 'cos another rumours says that I've already exceeded the number of times, Since exceed liao then do

Life, It's duration is beyond our control

After visiting my colleague's grandma's wake today. And knowing that there's quite a number of others whom i may not know. Well, I'll start to think about my life. Maybe it's just me haha. Everytime, there's a wake to attend, I'll feel that life is so fragile. I feel that life's duration is always beyond our control. We can't live forever so far. Ya technology hasn't been able to allow us to do that yet. My boss asked us about our religion today, and mine? Guess what? It's just retribution and karma haha. So far I only believe in that and other than praying to ancestors and to guanyin at times. So the only thing I did most diligently is to try and save the trees by not wasting paper haha.. I've tried my best le, by recycling whatever I can and have. Maybe that's my purpose on earth ba haha.. I've a friend that always told us that he believes that we shouldn't waste food 'cos no matter what, we will end up needed to f

Upcoming Trips

Looking forward to my trips around mar and apr haha. I wonder if my s/w mgr will approve my leaves or not lol. 'cos I'll need to take quite a lot of leaves then :D My Aussie trip has been postponed a bit but the number of leaves required is still the same and the other trip I'm not sure when exactly it will be and I haven't informed my friend that I'm going yet. If my mum didn't complain much by tml, I'll just confirm it ba haha. Oh ya.. subjected to approval from office as well. Still need to check out the hotel rates for the Aussie trip. Actually, it's quite ma fan to be part of the planning. Prefer to be those tag along type haha..

Tired day

Was so tired yesterday that I actually slept from around 10+pm to 12pm today lol. There are so many things that I need to do but still haven't do yet haha. Like the last 2 sections of my room is still pending rearrangement haha.. I wonder when I'll finally finish rearranging it. Somehow, my knee pain has miraculously recovered, just left a bit of muscle ache nia haha..

Hiking Photos

Roasted Human!!

Ya, after forgetting to apply sun block and being lazy by applying only to my shoulders, now, I felt like a roasted human haha.. Sun burnt!! The lesson learnt is that next time, I must be more hardworking in such things in order not to end up in agony. The painless experience is priceless!! Then, another sad thing that happened is that my knee hurts quite a bit when the entire hiking event is about to finished. haha.. In the end, I was almost limping back ba. Hopefully, it'll be fine tomorrow. The ROM ceremony I went to tonight is pretty dark actually, but I think the overall event is interesting. The speech is great, that of the JP and the couple! It's the 1st time I've heard a entirely chinese ROM. With the JP giving interesting ideas of Buddhism that's I've never heard of in my entire life. Now that I know actually in Buddhism, the idea of financial planning is being taught, I'm pretty amazed by it!!

Challenge Ahead

Well, after having a non conclusive talk, the only thing we can ever do is to re-plan everything. All over again. Haiz, Never mind, just think about it then see what else we can do ba. In the mean time, it's time to go and sleep since I need to wake up super early for the hiking event tomorrow.

Freedom

After talking to my partner today, he made me realised that after so many years of living on earth, I actually still have no freedom at all. A lot of times, I admit that in order to do certain things, I will need to conceal the fact. Although everything that I want to do / achieve is legal, ethical and moral but still, a lot of times, I still received the objection. I was still thinking, if there's anything I can do to get more freedom in my own life. After all, how many things in life, other than continuing to work for the sake of money, did she approve of me doing? I feel like trading for my freedom, I just want like maybe 2 years of it, at least I get it once. Otherwise, I'm not too sure why am I still around? Why am I still sitting here on earth. What exactly did I live for? If it's not for myself?

Learning Experience

Well, today I met up with my friends and we had a chat over coffee, tea and milk haha.. something like that la, after dinner loh. The food court at ION is really not nice to eat, the beef noodles is quite tasteless. I think the beef noodles at ermm Concorde Hotel food court is a lot better haa. Anyway, I was pretty amazed by whatever the contents of the chat was and got to learn a lot of things ba, I guess. A lot of time in life, it's about learning through others' experience, so that we will never have to go through the hard times that others may encounter as we go along in life.

1st day of work

Well actually, I was so tired today haha.. Think I learnt the magic tricks until I close my eyes I can see some of it lol. So in the end, I didn't get to sleep much yesterday. So I think maybe should just do such things in the day time ba. haha.

My Friend's BB

Went to visit my friend and her bb son in KK and we actually chatted about her birth giving process lol.. Sounds very painful. 'cos she says that she was in pain for like 12 hrs. hmm ok la at least not the 1.5 days that I thought it was. Then the injection to numb the pain also very scary. But the bb is quite cute ba. It looks like most of those babies inside looks about the same leh. Then after we went to meet another friend for dinner and got my magic tricks lesson bday present after that. haha. I think it's really very hard must practice a lot. Somemore got test one. I wonder when I'll pass that test.

Visiting Fren & her bb @ KK later

Looking forward to visit my friend and her bb later at KK Hospital. Actually, it sounds quite painful to give birth 'cos when I contacted her hubby for her ward no. yesteday, she actually spoke to me and she's still in pain. So it should be like she has been in pain for like almost 1.5 days. But at least she has finally given birth haha.

New Year Clothes Acquisition

Managed to buy some new year clothes today but then there's a too small shorts so need to go back and change. Sian. Should have taken the bigger size. Haiz.. The sad thing about the acquisition is that my mum still complains that it's ugly lol.. But Nvm, I'm the one wearing them after all, so I like can le LOL!

Birthday Celebration

Had my favourite cod fish at the "A Taste of Thailand" restaurant with my colleagues. Thanks for the treat. Then went to vivo to meet my friends for dinner and KTV countdown session. 'cos only one of them can meet up earlier 'cos her job ended around 12. In the end, we walked around so much that my legs are so tired lol.. For KTV session, I was almost like holding a mini concert again lol.
