Lets enjoy the entire process

Have submitted the application form this afternoon for the geomancist to suggest me some good red dates. Be patience to wait at least 1 week for the returns..Realised that date is so impt because whenever I stepped into bridal studio, consultants will ask me about my red date..hee hee..

OK, I have approached three bridal studio so far together with my colleagues or myself. One of which is definitely out because photo sucks and wedding gown also sucks big time. Shall be going to another studio at tanjong pagar with my friend tomorrow. She just signed up with this studio "iwedding" and heard can get many freebies and special discount for me...

So far, I like the wedding gown from silverliningbridal as they design sexy gowns..Moreover, the owner of the studio is a not bad good looking, friendly and approachable gay..**wink **wink. hmm, I trust gays especially more than women because they are usually more talented. Sorry for women out there, but it is truth. As for the photographer, I would prefer Utopia..Lets see how it goes since I still have ample time to explore further. Quite fun actually..Havent got into any gown trying yet, maybe after I shortlised some of the studio first.

Wedding Procedures - Need advise

Step 1 : Guess we need to confirm our red date first. Until now havent even bother to get a geomancy to find a red date for us..Ha ha..Lazy sia..

Step 2: Intend to hold solemnization in a function room or by the pool. These are the places I am looking at now. Anyone has other suggestion for my consideration, please.

1. Conrad's Salon by the Pool (http://www.singapore.conradmeetings.com/sincici/photo_20.html)
2. Changi Village Hotel - Poolside (http://www.changivillage.com.sg/index.cfm?id=8F130CB4-F206-A174-376690E6EE2F81B7)
3. Amara Hotel - Poolside (http://singapore.amarahotels.com/fac_sg_fr.htm)
4. Labrador Park

Actually I like the ones at Changi Village Hotel. The pool looks nice to me and the overall atmosphere is very cosy. The intention is have my solemnization there and lunch with two of our families. That's simple..Simple and effort-free is my style..:P..

Step 3: Need to find a cheap and nice wedding store to take wedding photo..Any recommendation in town

Step 4: Register a red date and an available solemniziser.

Step 5: Plan for honeymoon.

Am i getting the steps right?? First time woh, so quite confuse and need advise here. Hmm, how do i get started?

Tiring day

Urrrghhh, unforgetable love really bring tears to my eyes..Been watching Korean Drama since Thursday night. The story is so touching and I have been shedding tears so drastically..ha ha..Rating for this drama is 8 out of 10. Quick, go and buy or rent or borrow from someone...

Today was quite a tiring day. Slept at 3.30 a.m this morning..hee hee..anxious to finish up all the drama mah..Woke up early 9 a.m for my facial appointment..The doctor was again insane, treatment procedure was again so rough but at least worthy for the money. The previous ones took only half a hour, today was one hour. After which, rushed to meet my colleagues for lunch at Tung Lok Restaurant and then to hair do..almost drained off..

A compliment from my hair dresser today..Guess what?? She mentioned that my look still the same as 10 yrs ago..never change..even now still does not look old...True or not?? Please lor, I definitely look different from last time lah..She must be pulling my legs...

Ok then, that's all for today..I wanna rush for my tender spec now and get to sleep....Should leave my strawberry strudel for tomorrow..I need beauty sleep

Sophisticated iPhones. I'm Waiting

Wow, don't you think these iphones look cool!! I am a fan of sophisticated attractive phone. This is the one which I am waiting for long..The downside is that it will only launch in SG next year woh..sigh..which means I am going to bear with my current phone for another one year..shitty isn't it..Damn..

By far, the only phone I love was my first nokia phone which I purchased at $1400 which was many many years ago. Remember the ones which was silver and left with fingerprint. Can even treat it as a mirror. Remember?? yeah yeah, that's the ones..

'N' phone, please lah..The designs of 'N' phone are going from bad to worst. 'N' is the weakest link..It is time to engage a next better player to design better looking phone mann...

An ex-colleague from HP contacted me yesterday. I was surprised because I never expect her to remember again after I left HP..hee hee..Well, she is currently working in Cisco system after 7 yrs in HP. Hope she be doing good there, settle down and find me a job in Cisco system..Shall be meeting her one of the days to catch up definitely. Anyway, we are glad that we remain in contact again..

hmm, not feeling good these days. Just finished working from home. However, I feeling very happy after receiving a sms after which. Imagine someone telling you to take good care of health and must live happily at the fullest. This message really tells me that at least a person far away is thinking of me.

3 more days to paycheck

OK!! Just back from a 1 hr 30 mins survey discussion and earned myself $70. The topic today is about Credit Card. Seem like the next generation of credit card is going to be interesting. I am curious to know which bank is offering it. Shall wait and see then...

Work this new year is really hectics and not flowing smoothly. Seem like systems are not behaving themselves. Bugs are crawling out slowly..sigh..Always been wondering, we come to this world with nothing and will leave this world with nothing, why should we work so hard? People always say 'take it easy, it is just a job and get the paycheck and be happy'. I think I never can learn that. Probably just my character to take pride in whatever things I do. I have really high expectation of myself and wanted to do the best. When things go wrong, I always hold on to it and fight till the end. When can I learn to take things easily?? I am tired...boo hoo hoo...

Happiness in a box

Check it out at http://www.gobi.com.sg. Been craving for these little cakes for one week. Don't they look cute, sweet and appetitizing..Yummy Yummy...

For those whose babies are coming to one month and thought of giving out Bengawan solo's vochure, etc, you may wish to consider this. Just something special and a box of happiness is not expensive though..

Coming back to the term "Happiness". 'What is happiness?' Some thinkers say "Happiness does not lie in objects of enjoyment; happiness or unhappiness lies in imagination".

To prove their belief, here is an example:- A man has a two-storey house; on the right is a five storey building and on the left a cottage. When he sees right, he feels unhappy and when he sees left he feels happy. As such happiness does not lie in possession of sensory objects, but in imagination. They advise people to look towards those, who have fewer possessions and be happy. If you look towards people having more wealth and possessions, you will always be unhappy

So, in order to be happy, look towards those who have fewer possessions and you will be happy. Well, I am still trying to appreciate happiness in my life.. That's why we always say "Saying is always easier than to execute!!"

You're Beautiful

My Most Favourite Song

By far, this is the my most favourite song. This song definitely has given me great inspiration in life. Once before, I have friends who searched high and low around Singapore music stores for me but failed. For years, I have given up hope in search of it. If anyone out there came across or by luck, able to find this song anywhere in town or out of town, I really would appreciate if I can have a copy of it. This CD meant alot to me :P


Via: VideoSift

Do enjoy it!! Almost everyone in Hollywood showing their support in this song.

Voices That Care was a song written by the people who were left behind or the people who didn't go and fight in the war. Voices That Care was written and sent to solders during the Gulf War. The people who wrote the song wrote it because they didn't want the soldiers to think that we forgot about them. The people who wrote the song Voices That Care had great empathy for the men and women fighting for our freedom. This song is also telling all the solders that we want them to come home safe. Quote from Voices That Care would be Stand tall stand proud voices that care are crying out loud. This quote is telling them to hang in there and you'll be coming home soon. Another quote might be I'm not here to justify the cause or to count the loss, that's all been done before. This might mean that they are singing this song not to make it sound like everyone that goes to war will die, and they believe that they will come home safe. They also sung it to support the soldiers. Voices That Care is the type of song that makes people believe if they go to war that they will come home safe, but even if they don't they won't be forgotten.

The lyrics:-

Lonely fear lights up the sky
Can't help but wonder why you're so far away
There - you have to take a stand in someone elses land
Life can be so strange.
I wish we never had to choose
To either win or lose
That we could find a way
I won't turn my back again, your honor i'll defend
So hurry home till then.

Chorus:
Stand tall, stand proud
Voices that care are crying out loud
And when you close your eyes tonight
Feeling your heart how our love burns bright.

I'm not here to justify the cause or to count up all the loss
That's all been done before
I just can't let you feel alone when there's so much love at home
We're sending out to you
All the courage that you've known, the bravery you've shown
Clearly lights the way
We pray to make the future bright, to make the wrong things right
(rap: right or wrong, we're all praying you remain strong,
that's why we're all here and singing along)

repeat chorus

Soul mate

Still feelin' lousy. She used to be childhood mate, my closest soul mate, a person who I can share things with, a person who grows up with me and a person who is blood related to me. We have been very close since young, we shared laughter, wildness and saddness together. Memories of them are so close to my heart, however things have changed. The family gathering last monday has given me a sign that everything has lost its connection. My heart is so sore.. Tell me "The Reason" (One of my favourite Songs).



Which is the path I wanna walk now? Still pondering..Sometimes it would good to let things go.

Little Nephew

As a matter of fact, another year has passed. Woke up on the first day of new year pondering what to do. This afternoon I need to get to Ismaa'eel, cousin's son 'aqeeqah and housewarming. My little nephew has arrived last month. I have too many little nephews and nieces that made me almost forgot their names (at least two whom I did not know their names. :p shhh..). Will catch up during chinese new year if I am in town.

Happy New Year 2007

Hi all,

To those who are partying, party hard. To those who are drinking, do not drive :p. To those who are staying at home (like me), do something fruitful. To those who are at friends' house having potluck, eat till your tummy show..While you are having fun, don't forget to plan for your new year resolution. I had done mine and how about yours...

Well, I just completed living room and kitchen cleaning 3 hours back. Started it since afternoon and now my entire body is aching like no one business. Gosh, I could no longer continue with my room tomorrow..Ouch Ouch...

Got to rest. Be back soon!!

Story about my neighbour

Down with fever, sore throat and flu today..So sick..sob sob..uurghhhh. "Hello!" the word was greeted from each of us when the lift was opened. I was on my way to see doctor the next block. Hoo Hoo Hoo, saw my charming neighbour again..How do I get to know him? The story begins..

I used to have two dogs at one point. They are the rascal oscar and playful cookie..They never get along with each other. Everytime, when I went downstair, I had to carry cookie and let the little oscar (which is only 2 months old) walked by himself. He would follow me everywhere I walked unlike cookie would drag me to where he want to walk. One of days, I did the same thing again, went downstair to run some errands with my two accompanies..We waited patiently for the lift to come with this stranger.."Tink Tong", the lift was here. Stepped in the lift and prepared to go upstair and the little oscar just refused to step in. I have to pacify him embarrassing myself infront of the stranger. He was very helpful indeed. He pressed the lift for me while I was saying funny words to my dog..ha ha ha..Finally, after much effort, we were on the way up our floor. "Tink Tong", we have reached the fifth floor and little oscar followed the man out of the lift..Shit!! The man again helped to press the button inside while waiting for oscar to return in. At this moment, the lift suddenly closed. Three of us (the man, cookie and myself) were in the lift travelling up without oscar. My heart was so panicked. Luckily the man reaction was fast, he quickly pressed the sixth floor and me rushed out, run one floor down and looked for my dog..Thanks gawd, I found him..The man helped me with my dogs and returned to the seventh floor and finally we reached home safely.

From there on, we often met each other at the lift and smiled at each other. He is a charming 30 odd man, with the right height, the right body and most of all, he has this deep dimple on his face..Hoohoo hooo..I think he drives a lexus and is married..No sure but when this is how I know my neighbour..

By the way, wanna know how come my oscar was so rebellious that day? The answer is because I was carrying a cane on my hand which I bought when running errands..Obviously, he was scared of the cane..ha ha ha

Christmas Presents

The two hours christmas shopping this evening alone nearly broke my weak back..My legs were so tired that I could hardly walk and not to say, to carry three big paper bags of presents..Finally, I managed to finish my last minutes christmas shopping..Phew..Can't help but to say "Shopping is really a torturing activity". I wanna saluate those who can shop for hours and days.

Presents which I received till now:-

(1) Oggy gave me $1400 cash.

(2) My organisation gave each of us a card reader thumb drive which allows us to easily extract details from our handphone memory card.

(3) My boss gave each of us a big bar of almond chocolate.

Be meeting my friend this friday for christmas present exchange and advance dinner. Can't wait to see what she bought for me..The present which I bought for her is something I really like..It is from Liz Caliborne. Can I give it to myself? It is so tempting and at that moment, I thought of buying a similar set but managed to remind myself that it is not my objective today..See, I am able to control myself..


Feel so sick now. Just finished cooking a pot of porridge to feed myself after a hard day work..Got to go..

Greetings

Friday night

Sec school gathering at Furama Hotel last friday was quite enjoyable..Food was not nice at all but at least we enjoyed each other accompany. Laughter from our table was loud and clear..We must have make the limelight of the night..

Right after the warm dinner, I hopped on to join my colleagues. Been out of the scene for years and finally I joined in the fun with them. That was "St. James Power Station". We queued up for about 30 mins or more to get into this pub known as "DragonFly". "What the heck!!!! How come the music played by the liveband was in Chinese?" my mind was confused for a moment I stepped in. Damn, paid to get into a "low class" place..sorry but to say it was actually like the old Canto pub at Marina South last time..No wonder, I saw aunties when I was with the queue...Second floor was ktv, oh gosh...This was amazingly shocking...Please, please, please, for goodness sake..We hang around for 45 mins and left the place after finished our drinks...Explored for good pubs around and we ended up at "Devils Bar". Not very happening though but it was really entertaining. Saw two ladies whom made our night. They danced and reacted like hunger for sex and men..so horny..so desperate..Every guy who came near to them was their prey...ha ha ha ha..hey hey, woman is also their prey alright..Believe me or not, our table was just next to the live band, dancing floor and railing bar and we had a good view and laugh...

All in all, these two gathering were really fun..Almost lost my voice..hee hee

Life is full of surprises

13th of Dec is here again..Should I grieve or celebrate on this day? On one hand, it is my dad's birthday and on the other hand, it is Melvin's death anniversary. Sigh..He is one of those who died in his sleep. Should I say he is fortunate? Life is full of surprises, a person so young at the age of 28 who does not smoke or drink leading a simple life just left this world..Many of us were shocked by this news, but we still have to accept the fact. Was at the temple today to see and say "hello" to him. When I uttered "Take care ya!", my eyes and voice went soft..

"Happy Birthday to you, Dad. I love you!". Sent an sms to my dad this morning 12 sharp. I am a daddy girl and will remain forever. God has blessed me with the best dad in the world. Though my dad is poor, but my dad has given us alot of care by all his means quietly. He is like a friend to us, he talks rubbish to us, cracks joke with us, shows our friends with respect, never scold us, never control us and best of all, support us in all our decisions.

Not sure why, my bond with my dad is so much stronger than my bond with mum. I have told my dad "I love u" so many times and never in my life did I even mention it to my mum. Met up with mum last friday and had a simple meal and some chit chat. Know what..I seldom have eye contact with my mum when I talked to her. I felt she is like a stranger to me or maybe because I do not know how to communicate and treat her as a mum..sorry..Nevertheless, she is still my mum and I sincerely hope that she can forgive me for not ready to accept her. I will try to one day. Please forgive me!!

Items to look out for

It has been long since I bought something expensive to pamper myself. I have been eyeing a bracklet from Swaroski jewellery for months since feb. I saw it again this weekend..Hmm, thought of buying it maybe this coming Jan..Hmm, really took me one year to decide if I want to purchase..Tough customer isn't it..ha ha.

There are two other brackets I love in robinson as well. C'mon, one time at a time alright...I saw a men bag there too. It was very nice..I seldom eye on a men bag unless it is very nice and i tot the bag was quite catchy. Guess how much it cost? Bloody $500 alright..SO DAMN EX..

Oggy has been complaining that the jacket he wanted to get has been sold out..Poor thing..I was with him sometimes ago when he eyed on that jacket, but unfortunately i did not notice it at all..ha ha ha.I am also looking out for a jacket but until now, I did not see anything I like..well, it takes time..I always believe, when u want someting, it will not appear, but when you dun need it anymore, it will appear..Lets fate decide...

All about Common Law

Hey guys, do you still remember the old uni days which we spent our time studying "Contract Law"? I bet you do remember because that was the most memorable subject in your entire life too. Went for a training on Contract law again today. Terms like "Offer", "offerer", "Invitation to Treat", "Consideration","Minor" all flashes back.. Scary isn't it??..But for that moment, I thought of going back to get the book and study it again just like reading a book. The only difference is this time round I do not need to memorise the case law for exam. Opss, this time round, I definitely would not need to write "In an undecided case"...hee hee.

For gals out there, in case you do not know, please do remember to give 5 cents or a gift token to your husband when your husband gave you a wedding ring alright. As long as you have given your hubby a token, there will be contract binding and he has no rights to take back the ring when file for divorce..So, JUST REMEMBER...

By the way, do you wonder how come we studied "Common Law" instead of "Civic Law"? No one ask that question before.

Mind Riddle

I have enough stress but someone challenged me with this mind riddle. PLease Please help me!!

I borrowed $50 from my mum and dad each which amounts to $100. I took this $100 to buy a pair of shoe at $97. The shop returned me $3 and I in turn gave $1 back to mum and dad each. So I am left with $1. After returning, I still owe mum and dad $49 each which add up to $98. So, $98 with the $1 I have, it totals up to only $99. Where is the another $1?

Christmas is coming

'Are we still exchanging Christmas Present,' asked Jaseline. "Yup!" I replied. On one hand, I was thinking what should I buy for her. How about Oggy's present as well..Every year this time, I need to start to crack my head. Sigh..

Brother's birthday just past. Next coming ones is Dad's ones..Oh gosh..Dec is really a broke month and the best part is I HATE SHOPPING..Everywhere is so crowded and crowd always made me headache..Though population in Singapore is not huge compare to other countries, but shopping centers are always so bloody crowded. Why and WHY????

The most enjoyable christmas I ever had is when I was in Korea. Snow everywhere..So white and thick..That's my first time in my life I was covered by snow..Besides, I did enjoy the christmas shopping at Boston as well. It was really nice everywhere..Houses are decorated with christmas trees, ginger bread, etc. It was really cosy. Christmas in U.S compare to Singapore is so far far different. You should not ever miss the chance to spend your christmas there but please, not in Asian countries. Say me bias or what, but it is the truth..
