Dear Bloggie,
Nothing interesting in my life of late... just a random update.
I was home one evening and Toffee jumped up on to my bed and tried to get cozy with me... Not a very glam photo; instead a little awkard looking with his big head poking out between my head. But my Darling is cute right... =)
Office is like a freezing North Pole of late... I am once again working with the Pandas and Penguins. It successfully reached 18 degrees. It is cold de can... =(
Okie... That's all for now. :p

Dear Bloggie,

This is a follow up for my WanTon Mee (WTM) Post…

Right after I checked with my colleague – HK Girl – that the Kopitiam don’t sell WTM, I tabao-ed Yong Tau Foo back instead.

THEN… we happily tabao-ed back and sit down with my other lunch kakis
THEN… MT opened her container…
THEN… it is WTM.

*thunder and lightning*

Sad can… but that’s not the end.

The next day (which is yesterday morning), DT swing by to pick me up for work. We went back to the exact same Kopitiam where he had his WTM the previous day and I kept telling him I want to eat the WTM that he had the day before for the entire journey.

THEN… I was all excited as I stepped out of the car.
THEN… I literately skipped into the Kopitiam.
THEN… WTM not open.

*more thunder and lightning*
(Real one this time round as dark clouds gathered at Tampines)

But well… there is always a Happy Ending.

I tabao-ed that WTM back for Lunch yesterday…
And had it for breakfast with DT this morning…

But I am still on my WTM hunt… Keke.

Its Friday people~~* Had a nice weekend!!
I know mine will be good; hope yours will be too!

Dear Bloggie,

This might sound silly... but I am craving for Wan-ton Mee now.

All because of DT... I saw him eating that for Breakfast this morning. But I really didnt want such a heavy breakfast early in the morning so I only had a glass of my all-time-favorite 马蹄. =(

I brought Lunch in today... and I dont remember the Kopi-Tiam near my Office sells Wan-ton Mee... And I'll be meeting the Uni Girls after work for Dinner at Geylang for 田鸡粥 before heading down to collect our Reglias...

I want my Wan-ton Mee (dah and mai hiam please)... =(

Dear Bloggie,

Back from the long weekend... Has it been a good one? Well... yes and nope. I've been thinking on what to write and what not to write, as I do not want to touch on any sensitive issues and create more problems... I do not need a last word in any arguement as the one with the last word does not emerge as a winnder; both parties will end up losers.

Anyway... my camera battery is flat and I cannot find the charger. I've got a feeling the charger is still in my luggage (from the TW/ HK trip) but I am really too lazy to fish it out. Hence.. photos are really limited these days.

Travelled down to the far west on Friday and waited for XDD to pick me up after he ended work... I was reading Dan Brown's latest book - The Lost Symbol - while waiting for him that I complain he swing by a little too early. Dinner is at this yummy Thai Place at Yishun... one that I adore back at my days at SW... I fancy it that much that Soulfly and myself brought his parents down one Mummy's Day to try out the food. With all the rekindled memories, had wanted to bring the Girls down this weekend to try it out... but well. =) Head home after a movie and I am seriously very tired... so tired that I actually left THE book in the car. *tsk tsk*

Ermm... Saturday. Ending an argument at Orchard and leaving me alone is seriously a very bad idea... I need to feel better and I ended up shopping. XDD knew I have plans with the Girls at the very last minute and made arrangements with his Friends. He had wanted me to head home after learning I am alone, but I insisted in wandering down town for a little longer - I was so pek chek that I even hang up on him. Then... I got in my princessy mode and told him I wanted my book. I quickly regretted my behavior and told him it's alright; I'll get it from him tomorrow when we meet up. But he had cancelled out on his Friends and told me his heading down town to pick me up...
While waiting for him to pick me up... I felt so guilty. Not at the shopping, but more on making him cancelling out on his Friends just because of me. =( Anyway... I really appreciate the fact that he is still very nice and patient with me all through the night. One thing he said really making sense... Being angry with me serve no purpose - he scold -> I upset -> I cry -> ruined atmosphere -> noone is happy. And he'll end up sending me home straight away instead of chilling out somewhere. And this is the damage of the night...

A new home for my LG Areana... I am still loving the nice leather smell. =)

Woke up early on Sunday for a Family Picnic at Pasir Ris Park... Brought my 2 Darling Doggies out... but it didnt went on too well. I really cannot handle the both of them alone... and its not helping that Lizzie is rather defensive as the kids are rather rough towards them. I am more then happy to head home and went into the world of the Lost Symbols once again. And... I am done with the book!! It is not as nice as the previous 2; I am actually pretty disappointed. But well... still a good read.

Being back on talking terms with Mummy has it's good points... the Birdnests treats are coming back...

Its yummy de loh... =)

Sunday was a lazing day~~* Head down to Bugis for dinner with XDD. Kinokuniya is on sale... and The Lost Symbol is on a 25% discount. Angry loh... Its like a $10 savings. But its alright... I walked out with more books. Left Bugis after I have my Ice-cream fix at Illuma... =)

A quick trip to Ang mo kio to pick up some items and that end my long weekend... =)

Ermm... My standpoint:- I do not mind planning and organizing gatherings for everyone. But try doing it on a regular basis and you will get the feeling that you are not appreciated and everyone just conveniently push the planning matters to you. Asking me to call up someone else and getting someone else to call me really gets to my nerves. Even thou I know everyone is busy with one thing or another and I appear rather free, but this does not mean I got to do everything right. Especially when it was verbally being addressed out, it makes me feel like I am being exploited in a way. I understand the meaning of give and take, but eventually there will come a day where I am giving so much that I'll snap. It is true that I am rather moody lately, but insisting that I got a fucking big problem at that point of time does not help things in any manner. Anyway, ermm.. no apologies coz I still felt exploited in some ways. But I rather regret at the way things turned out; things might have be better if my tone was a little nicer when delivering that big speech.

Long post... but Active Boss not in. Hope it'll be a great week ahead!! =)

Dear Bloggie,

Just seconds earlier... I finally knew who is this girl that is on my Facebook "Friend List" for the longest time ever.

She has added me a guess a couple years back, and I got no idea why did I accepted her request when I really got no idea who is she... I seen her updates and her photos and yet it rang no bell. Till seconds earlier, I saw her photos... celebrating her Birthday with WT. Then it occur to me who this girl is... Keke... I am so blur~~*

Now looking back at the photos, she did not change much. Why her identity did not struck me earlier... Now I have the feeling that I found back a long lost friend thou we are connected like years ago... =)

Dear Bloggie,

昨天与Uncle NL 分析过了,这礼拜我闷闷不乐,是因为我太寂寞、太无聊了。周遭的人都在为了工作,学业,家人或爱人忙碌着。。只有我每天无所事事。

没关系,习惯就好!=)
昨天跟DT吃午餐。。看到了这只猫。

是很普通的一只大花猫,可是。。

它对悬挂在梁柱上鸟笼里的鸟虎视眈眈!五分钟后我又经过时,它依然原封不动的望着鸟笼里的鸟。。坏人!不。。是坏猫咪!!

今天是小周末,这个周末又是个长周末。。希望大家会有个愉快的周末!=)

Dear Bloggie,

Joke of the day:-

Finance Girl A in another Lorong: (quite loud to who-ever I cannot see) Give me an HOUR!
Hot Mama in my Lorong: Finance Girl A, you opening Zoo ah?
Finance Girl A in another Lorong: Huh??!??
Hot Mama in my Lorong: You wanted an OWL mah; I can even give you a Horse.
Everyone in the 2 Lorong: HAHAHAHAHA
(Someone in the background): Lame leh… =_=

The people in my Office can get pretty cute at time… =)

Dear Bloggie,

Share a little hobby of mine that is unknown to most... I rememebered I started this hobby when I was in Secondary 3. When my Maths Teacher - Ms A. Wee was teaching all the algebra and other crab (I was never good in the more technical subjects such as Maths and Science), I will take out a coloring book and start color-ing away... So as to look busy like I am taking notes. :p

Yupz... coloring. Not a very common hobby I know... but somehow I do like it. This is not my Secondary 3 coloring book; I got this in Poly I think... I was packing my room the other day and come across it. Oh... I bought a box of matching crayons too... Well, you know... I have a thing for matching sets. See my art-work... Haha. I know this is what Kindergarden kids are doing... but I actually enjoy filling up the spaces with colors; keeping in lines and matching the colors. Doing this brings me joy...

Okie... that's all I have for your now. Have a great Wednesday everyone... =)

Dear Bloggie,

心情。。又不好了。

Uncle NL 一早就问我为什么过了我最爱的七月我就闷闷不乐;XDD 也拿我没办法。。早上没聊到两句我就叫他“leave me alone”直到我心情稍微好转点。

我真的不知我到底怎么了。。可能是喉咙又开始在隐隐作痛了,现在的感觉就像是全世界欠了我似的,有种很不甘愿的感觉。无法跟任何人多聊几句废话,无法忍受任何无聊小事,容忍程度达到了新低。。随时准备对踩到我尾巴的人发火。可是,很矛盾的。。我还是在希望有人能来跟我聊聊,来关心一下。

现在的我人在公司里,我依旧带着个笑容对着和我接洽的每个人。可是我一转身,笑容也会跟着消失。。这种不是发自内心的笑,让我觉得自己好虚伪,很讨厌这样的我。

希望。。明天的我会更好。

Dear Bloggie,

Upset leh...

I have not been shopping ever since I return from Taipei/ Hongkong... And somehow, that little shopping bug has started jumping up and down once more and refuse to settle down. And since I've not been going out lately; I err.. shopped at the comfort of my room - online shopping.

I err... got 2 new Marc by Marc Jacobs bag online. Buying this label in the States is quite cheap; and since I already paid for the shipping... I might as well get 2.

And... I action a Prada off ebay.

I was the top bidder for 3 days... And I really thought that bag will be mine! But I checked my email this morning; just 10min before the action close (and all these while I am sleeping in the middle of the night) some Idiot actually came out with a price 10bucks more then my highest bid.

Upset loh...

Even that 2 new Marc by Marc Jacobs which is on-the-way fail to cheer me up. =(

Dear Bloggie,
这。。真是很overdue。

8月28日这一天,我与好友带着超兴奋的心情踏进了新加坡室内体育馆。抵挡不住场内那儿澎湃的气氛,连照片都是艋的。到了8点35分,灯光暗了。。五月天新加坡首场DNA演唱会,就此开始!!

灯光四射的舞台,加上五月天开场的首首舞曲,带动了全场的气氛。。其实,也不用什么舞曲,单单他们的出现,全场都几乎要疯掉了。。他们首首好歌接二连三。。我们陶醉其中。。阿信!!真是帅呆了。。看到吗。。冠佑在唱歌哦。。

那儿。。谁在打鼓呢。。原来是阿信。他还真的是多才多艺阿!能作词、能作曲。。能唱、能玩吉他,连打鼓也难不到他!手拉着手。。他们谢场了。

可是时间还早。。要唱到午夜十二点阿。五月天。。没有很炫的舞台设计、没有昂贵的舞台效果、没有声势浩大的舞蹈群、更无需什么大牌得特别来宾,可是我却被五月天那对音乐热诚、和他们那兄弟间的默契给感动了。到了最后。。他们唱了我最爱的 - 憨人。=)到了午夜12点10分,随着雪花纷飞的纸碎。。五月天带临着工作人员谢场了。随着演唱会的落幕,五月天多了我及好友这两个小小歌迷。。我们也带着不舍的心情离开了。

Dear Bloggie,

我现在是天团 - 五月天的小小歌迷。。:p

在上个礼拜五的那场演唱会中,他们那精湛的演出深深地吸引着我,让我至今还回味无穷。

我。。还没把照片放上网 - 真的没时间。

可是在这,我想分享一首我在演唱会里听到的一首歌。这首歌的旋律一直在我脑海盘旋着,歌词字字都让我甜进心窝里。

我。。也在等待、等待着有这么一个人,能在我心里有着如此重要的地位 - 重要到让我能在分分秒秒、年年日日里,全心守护着他最小的事。

五月天 - 最重要的小事

www.youtube.com/watch?v=_YCFEoN3UTo

曲:玛莎 词:阿信

我走过动荡日子 追过梦的放肆 穿过多少生死
却假装若无其事 穿过半个城市 只想看你样子
这一刻最重要的事 是属於你最小的事

世界纷纷扰扰喧喧闹闹什么是真实
为你跌跌撞撞傻傻笑笑买一杯果汁
就算庸庸碌碌匆匆忙忙活过一辈子
也要分分秒秒年年日日全心守护你最小的事

我就算壮烈前世 征服滚滚乱世 万人为我写诗
而幸福却是此时 静静帮你提著 Hello Kitty袋子
这一刻最重要的事 是属於你最小的事

世界纷纷扰扰喧喧闹闹什么是真实
为你跌跌撞撞傻傻笑笑买一杯果汁
就算庸庸碌碌匆匆忙忙活过一辈子
也要分分秒秒年年日日全心守护你最小的事

最重要的事

你笑得像个孩子
每个平凡小事变成永恒故事
------------------------------------------------------------

周末,因喉咙发炎,我又是发烧、又失了声,病得不省人事。。在药物的影响下,我昏昏沉沉的在床上寸步难行。

也在这时我收到了一封久违了的朋友的电邮。

让我们的歌不停的在背景从复的播着、读着他写给我的字字句句,眼泪不由自主的滑下。

他。。成今是我的全部。
所有的大小事都是我紧紧守护在胸怀里的。
可是。。时间让人变得放肆、懒惰、和忘记了最基本的一切。

我。。也是人,也犯了一样的错误。
尽然亲手把那基础的小小方块一个一个的拉出来。
眼睁睁的看这一切就这样垮下来,我心痛不已。

我领略到。。

重要的。。其实不是我们人生中的那些大事。
重要的。。是那些最不起眼、最无人问津的。。小事。

可是。。这以是过去事。
周遭的一切得来不易,也是一种缘分。
我得学着珍惜,守护着现在、和将来的每一件 - 最小的事。

Dear Bloggie,

Taipei & Hongkong Part 3
Day 6

Good weather when we are finally leaving Taipei... The whole Typhoon is finally over, despite leaving havoc at some parts of Tainan.
Since we still have plenty of NTD left... we have the luxury of the Limo service back to the Airport... The very lok kok Airport... :p

And Orange Juice for me before I hop onto the plane... The Cathay which will take us to the Land of H&M, Mango and Esprit!! We found Wi-fi in the Airport... after so many days being disconnected from the world, we finally got hooked up online.. Waiting for the flight... we were actually early and they put us on an earlier flight. Yummy Loti... Silly I know but I really like in-flight food. We... in the plane. And with that... we reached! We decided to splurged a little more on the Hotel in Hongkong since it is only for 1 night... Hence the Hotel is a little more classy and they have these complimentary service that picks us to the Hotel from the Kowloon Airport Express.. Definitely the BEST Hotel I have ever stayed in Hongkong... After leaving our luggages in the Hotel, and not wanting to waste any more of the precious time, we took a cab back to Kowloon - Elements. First Stop: H&M.... I went a little crazy here... I have only got HKD 2,000; after leaving HKD 500 aside for Food and HKD 200 aside for Transport, I am left with HKD 1,300. But the first bill from H&M is already HKD1,500+... I have no choice but to pay HKD 1,000 in cash and the balance by card. And Bestie also gave me a shopping list at H&M - that is paid by card too. Having only HKD 300 in my pocket, I am feeling damn insecure... We grabbed some sushi from the super market for Lunch and went on to Central - for the H&M Flagship Store. Needless to say... the purchases there are all paid by card. After 2 shopping sprees at H&M, we head back to the Hotel to put the shopping bags down... We promptly fall asleep... But I set alarm at 7pm as we are due to meet HF for Dinner at Tsim Sha Tsui. Dinner is at Peking Garden - a very posh place well-known for its Peking Duck. And 3 Girls manage to polished off 1 whole Peking Duck, 1 Steam Fish and a Tofu Dish. =) Me with HF... The poor girl broke her feet some time back and its all casted up. Thou we are seriously very tired... we took a long walk to Tsim Sha Tsui Sogo and bought the 恒香老婆饼 and my favorite 鸡蛋圈. We are very tempted to take a cab back to the Hotel; but we are both damn low in Finance that we endure and took the subway back.... =( Reached the Hotel and we both start packing our luggages... See the bag on the right beside the luggage?? That is my new Agnes B Travel Bag~*

Day 7

Finally... its the last day of our long holiday. What is a trip to Hong Kong without Dim Sum?? It is 11am on a Wednesday... Look at the crowd?? All no need to work?? When in Rome... follow the Roman. Everyone is washing the cups and bowls and chopsticks with the Tea and we follow suit... But somehow it turned out looking all so wrong and we had to bring tissue paper out to wipe it once more... =_=We err... over-ordered. This is not the 'Before' photo... this is the 'After' photo. We walked along Mongkok... combed one more H&M and found the Esprit Outlet and I err... bought a little too much again. Thank God for Credit Card~~* After all the shoppings, we stop by my Favorite Dessert Store... I can never miss this in Hongkong. Mangos are somehow sweeter in Hongkong... =) Ooohh... I absolutely adore this. Me and my Favorite Yellow Mango Dessert... Somehow... I am not craving for 蛋塔 this time round. My last trip in Hongkong, I am forever on a 蛋塔 hunt. But nevertheless, we bought a couple when we pass by this very old authentic bakery shop. Walking around Mongkok trying to find Chestnuts for Bestie's Mummy.... but cannot find. =( And we walked away with more shoes here... =_=And with that... we went back to the Hotel to pick up our luggage and took the Airport Transfer back to the Airport. We... are so broke that our last meal (Hongkong leh... die die got to eat 烧腊) is paid by Credit Card as we ran out of cash... Yupz... that is how pathetic we are in Hongkong. My last in-flight meal... and with that, it ended my 7 day Taipei and Hongkong Trip.

We reached Singapore Changi Airport at 12mn... It is a weekday and it is a rather sweet sight to see XDD waiting for me at the Arrival Hall. =)
