The Man in my life

will be off to HK for a Business Trip

that means

1) No One will switch on my room light at night, for fear I will stumble as I move from my Study to Bed Room in the wee hours in the morning - I won't but he still does it, so whenever it is switched on I will off it and then he will on it again (: it is quite amusing

2) No One will cut fruits and brew tea for me in the afternoon

3) No One will drop me off and pick me up from the MRT station.

But it is just a 15 Mins walk, so why am I complaining? I need the exercise!

I wanted to drive the car, as it is so so so hot to walk out in the afternoon

BUT He fears I will crash it

and shame on me I can't park!!!

4) No Pest Killer to the rescue when I scream the whole house down!

I am always meeting lizards, in the car, in my room, in the kitchen :(

5) Lastly, when he is away,

No One will greet me with a Good Morning Darling

& Good Night Little Toe (My nick since young:p)

He is none other then my beloved Papa

I love Him just the way He is

CNY

"Traditions are now being flushed away by Laziness"

What do you remember most about CNY? The deafening beating of drums and clashing of the symbals as a pair of lion or dragon dances around the interior and exterior of a house/shop/hawker centre? Or a reunion which you are not part off, but you can hear the endless chattering, loud laughter and smell the wift of mouthwatering munchies? Or the yummy goodies which make your waist expand drastically? Or Ang Pows even if it is just $2? Or a chance to catch up with relatives whom you meet only once a year?

What I remember most about CNY, was an account told by my dad's friend about his son and his daughter-in-law. They are both well educated and financially stable and yet they had the cheek to give empty ang pow packets to my dad's friend and his wife! When they approached the couple for clarification, the wife started blaming the husband and vice versa and when a new set of ang pows came back to them it was filled, but with $10! Shameless & Insincere Couple!! tsk tsk tsk!!

14 Feb

to me it was just an ordinary thurs -

So What ...

1) If I didn't have an "free" dinner that night?

I am not a "yao gui", so I rather give such a dinner a pass! Plus the atmosphere will be too overwhelmingly sweet for me, to enjoy myself! Being surrounded by mushy couples is simply not my cup of tea! Personally I feel that bringing your sweetheart to a posh eatery is nothing unique or special, as you are one of the many who are doing it on that day! So if you want to treat her, bring her out on any other day except for v-day, it will be more special and more romantic to have 75% of the restaurant to yourself:P

2) If I didn't receive any gift/s from a special someone?

I NEED nothing but I WANT to renovate my humble house - I want a much much bigger kitchen for my mum and a cosy room for my dad to relax. My advice save your money so you can score brownie points with your future in-laws!

3) If I didn't go out on that day?

I know that there is a "romantic feel" in the air, that is what makes the day is so special. Yet I am still trying to figure out what is the joy of being out on Vday? The sidewalks are congested with human traffic jams and everywhere is brimming with "loovey doovy dolled up beings". Couples take it in their stride and call it a romantic stroll, but to an easily irritated single like myself, I call it suffocating! I do not enjoy being jabbed on the side by swinging bags, huge bouquet of flowers and my tail end of my slipper being sandwiched between the floor and the tip of a being who is so "blindly in love"! If reservations are not made, I think I can take a flight to KL & back back, take my own sweet time to clear customs and shop at duty free! If I am lucky maybe only then I will get a seat!

4) If I don't have a special someone?

V-day is not just a day for couples but it is also a day to demostrate and proclaim your love and appreciation towards those around you and I did just that. [Scroll down to find out more]

it is no Big Deal

it is INSANE to spend so much on just that day!

I Know it is Cliche

BUT

V-Day is suppose to be everyday!

so do treat your other halves well

the rest of the 364 days.

Romantic Love

vs

Matured Love

I want to have a matured love relationship

I spent feb 14 with my books, with my family & making goodie bags to contain the cookies I made <3

my little cuz innocently said this when he looked up and his eyes fell on the potted plants -

The caterpillars must have been very hungry last night

To kill time in the train, I usually love listening to other people's conversations, I find them highly entertaining and it makes my journey relatively enjoyable! Today seated beside me was a grandfather and his two grand children. The endless chattering in the train was broken by a melody which came from the dial tone of the Grandfather's phone, he picked it up and spoke in a mix of english and dialect that he was going to meet a friend by the name of Ah Meng. After hanging up, the Grand kid turned to him and said, are you going to the zoo? He started laughing and said I am meeting a person not a monkey and the same kiddo crossly told him that Ah Meng was an Orang Utan and not a Monkey. Not getting what his grand child was referring to, he repeated he was meeting a person and not a monkey and she said loudly in an innocent tone that Ah Meng was not a Monkey but an Orang Utan... ha ha the conversation brightened my day and many other's in the cabin, as it made us

SMILE (:

It's 12.57AM,

I'm Craving for -

Irish Coffee

nights like these are hard to come by,

TOTALLY

PRICELESS

The verdict is set, My decision is final.

I have pulled the plug of my Maiden Musical.

Life still moves on after this (:

" There is a fine line, which once crossed can be fatal.

It's the line between Disappointment and Anger.

Between Hurt and Hate,

Between Bitterness and Blame.

If I ever find myself nearing that line,

I hope I won't cross it.

Disappointments is caused by unmet expectations

Disappointment is cured by revamped expectations.

Life's Mishaps are not reasons for me to bail out.

They are simply a reason to sit tight and continue the Journey of Life "

[He still moves stones]
