Sunny Sunday

Sunny.
And I mean really Sunny.
Sunny Sunday!
So scorching hot!.
Not the best weather condition to work in.
Slept close to 5 am.
Woke up about 12 pm.
Went to Giant to get some groceries with Marjie.
Got home, did some marking.
And I actually fell asleep!
I look at the sun out there.
I should be sunbathing. Or rather, I would have been out there sunbathing last time.
But with my bad condition of rash nowadays. I shall not! Took a cold shower. Did somemore marking (yes, marking on a Sunday. Due to last week's bad emotions and lousy efficiency. I must get back to being 'NO WORK @ HOME') And now, I am blogging and blogs reading. Some interesting reads for you:

Some interesting secrets. Sad. Happy. Funny. Life.
My life is so good. I should have no complains.

Love his latest entry. "Sometimes when you are feeling lost with no sense of direction and don't know where you are heading then you should close your eyes and think about moments of joy & happiness, deep happiness. Its called Following your bliss. I am trying..." I am too. Because I know I am more blessed than many out there. I have everything. And most importantly, I have family and friends who love me. And for all that I am, I keep my promise. Because I made it. I keep it.

More great reads!


Cooked fried rice for dinner.
And of course with my all time fav Bali Sauce :p

Great Weekend ...

Woke up at 10plus when zz bbm me this morning (Saturday).
Enjoyed lazing on bed, watching tv.
Did my stepper, and sent Marjie home from car workshop.
Went to meet my ex-kiddos.
They are already in Secondary 3!
Time flies!
Picked Marjie up to get her car and to Novena for service.
Had coffee at Dome.
Had dinner @ SAF Yacht Club.
Thanks to 小老鼠 who brought me there.
Haha, there were fireworks like every 15 minutes!
Had a long day.
Good to be in great company all the time.
Keeps my mind occupied!
Also, keeping EQ victims in prayers!
And yes, why am I blogging at this time?
I cannot sleep ...
Shall attempt to sleep again ...

Saw this in Princess' Blog ... Love it ...

The Rose
Some say love is a river, that drowns the tender reed.
Some say love, it is a razor, that leads your soul to bleed.
Some say love, it is a hunger, an endless aching need.
I say love, its a flower, and u, it’s only seed.
It’s the heart afraid of breaking, that never, learns to dance.
It’s the dream afraid of waking, that never, takes a chance.
It’s the one who won’t be taken, who cannot seem to give,
and the soul, afraid of dying, that never, learns to live.
When the night, has been too lonely, and the road, has been too long,
and you think, that love is only, for the lucky, and the strong.
Just remember in the winter, far beneath the bitter snows,
lies the seed, that with the sun’s love, in the spring, becomes a rose.

The Pig of Happiness

PEFX Monthly Dinner Date

Reached home around 2 in the afternoon.
Or was it later?
I really cannot remember.
I think it was later.
Anyway, managed to nap.
Not a fantastic nap.
Just cannot sleep well this week.
I'm going to sleep after this entry instead of marking my compositions.
I hope I can sleep well.
Instead of having dinner at Mandarin Gallery,
we changed our dining place to Tampopo.
Our second time at Tampopo.
The first time was at Liang Court.
And yes, boring us (EFX) ordered the same ramen. Haha.
I thought I still looked shack after the nap.
Oh well.
And the three of them, who came from school!
Poor thing.
After dinner, we popped over to Zara and Mphosis.
Sales!
Big buyer - P!
Ended up at Coffee Club for drinks (and more snacks).
I must really get onto the stepper and work out in the morning!
Time for my favourite Black & White and Sepia shots.
Did not use my dslr, despite me bringing it out!
Was using my BB all the time! :p
Till next month's date!


Song of the night

And ...
I miss my Pig of Happiness ....
Since I lost it, did I lose my happiness?
No, I cannot let piggy determine my happiness.
I just miss its spastic face.
Maybe I need to search harder to get a new one ...

TGIF

It's been a tiring week.
Very tiring.
Haven't been sleeping well.
Emotionally draining.
Missing Baobei.
Missing zz.
Watch Vday with 小老鼠.
So so only.
Want to cry, not touching enough.
Want to laugh, not funny enough.
Want to sleep, not boring enough.
My favourite part of the movie was - Blackberries!
Luckily we didn't fall asleep!
Finally, TGIF.
Meeting PEF today @ Mandarin Gallery for dinner.
Meeting people is good.
Takes my mind off everything.
Meeting my sec sch kiddos tomorrow :)
Tdy, my kiddos from my two English classes also made my day :)

What a Day ...

  1. Baobei left this morning ...
  2. My kids really do wonder. They really cheered me up. Otherwise, when I got the news of Baobei, I would have bursted out crying there and then.
  3. Brought the kids out for training. Met with a minor bus accident on the way back. Luckily all the kids seemed fine. Hope they really are. Have to check with them tomorrow again to make sure they are alright. But at the same time, I was very touched by some parents' concern. After I messaged them to inform them about the accident and to assure them that their kids are alright, they actually call me to check that I am alright too.

Thanks Jess (again)

So sweet of Jess to bring breakfast. Thanks thanks!
I Love My BlackBerry!

:)

Happy Birthday, Miss Sandra Ang!

Midweek ...

Had dinner at Jumbo ECP.
Thank you ladies.
For making my evening better.

Thanks Jess and Ger

Thanks ladies, for trying to make me feel better. Thank you.
I don't know. I really don't know.
My friends are telling me to euthanise it.
Should I?

Thank you ...

Kyan's new ride finally arrived.

And, dear friends, thank you so much.
I'm considered better ...
I cannot accept the fact ...
But I know I have to ...
Thanks JY for going back with me.
Thanks Rooster Snr for msning with me.
Thanks Chrissy dear for calling me.
Thanks Lil Rat Bro for forcing me to eat 'all' the porridge.
Thanks all, for tolerating my nonsense and sicko face today.

When I look at Baobei today, I almost died on the spot.
Yet, I don't have the heart to put it to sleep.
I mean, "How can I?"

Anyway, I have to try to stop pulling a long face!

Thanks JY

Thanks to JY.
Got it.
She gave me matching plasters too.
Thanks Nic Babe for telling me it's @ parkway.
BB is still very sick.
Bones.
Restless.
Slow breathing.
I cannot imagine how many more days it has.

Baobei ...

Baobei is dying :'(
He smsed me to tell me that Baobei cannot make it already.
Kidney failure.
Hospitalised for two weeks.
Why tell me only know?
I was @ the petrol kiosk when he sms me.
I teared and cried immediately.
The last time I lost Xiaobai, I also cried for a week.
Baobei is even closer to me.
I don't know if I've the courage to go back and see it ...

下一站,幸福 LIVE

Isn't Love always the reason?

Packing my bag during commercial time, and realised, my wet ones' almost finished :(
Couldn't find the same one @ NTUC and Cold Storage :'(
Will go on finding ...

A lot of time, people do things thinking that they want the better and best for the other party.
Then again, is the other party thinking the same way?

Lunch @ Home

The nth time our family gathers.
That is what I love about CNY.
Tiring, yes, very.
But I love it.
Uncle and Aunties helped Mummy and Papa with the final preparations for 擂茶.
In fact, Mummy and Papa already started last night.

Lei cha (擂茶; léi chá; literally "pounded tea") is a Hakka tea-based beverage or gruel consisting of a mix of tea leaves that are ground or pounded together with various roasted nuts, seeds, and grains. The tea is drunk for breakfast or on cold winters as a tasty and healthy restorative. Lei cha is very popular in Taiwan, Southern China, Malaysia as well as any locations with a large population of Hakka people
Lei cha is traditionally a savory drink, however now it is usually consumed sweet.

If you know me well enough, you will know that this is a lunch I will definitely skip.
I survived on 5 fried mid-wings and 1 coffee.
Fat Rat Bro left for work without eating too.
Well, this is really not our kind of lunch!
Happy Mummy.
She love her 擂茶!
And my cute Penguin Papa, who have been helping Mummy all the time!
My nephews.
Time flies!
It used to be tonnes of cousins.
Now, all the little ones are nephews and nieces.
(only the following picture is taken using my Blackberry)
Mummy and my aunties.
Short of many people today.
Less crowded than the usual.
I'm glad it is Monday tomorrow.
And hopeful of it too.
Blogging is theraputic like I always say.
And taking pictures of course :)

I Don't Want to be on a Runaway Train :)


Call you up in the middle of the night

Like a firefly without a light
You were there like a slow torch burning
I was a key that could use a little turning

So tired that I couldn't even sleep
So many secrets I couldn't keep
Promised myself I wouldn't weep
One more promise I couldn't keep

It seems no one can help me now
I'm in too deep
There's no way out
This time I have really led myself astray

CHORUS
Runaway train never going back
Wrong way on a one way track
Seems like I should be getting somewhere
Somehow I'm neither here no there

Can you help me remember how to smile
Make it somehow all seem worthwhile
How on earth did I get so jaded
Life's mystery seems so faded

I can go where no one else can go
I know what no one else knows
Here I am just drownin' in the rain
With a ticket for a runaway train

Everything is cut and dry
Day and night, earth and sky
Somehow I just don't believe it

CHORUS
Bought a ticket for a runaway train
Like a madman laughin' at the rain
Little out of touch, little insane
Just easier than dealing with the pain

Runaway train never comin' back
Runaway train tearin' up the track
Runaway train burnin' in my veins
Runaway but it always seems the same

Thanks to Rooster Snr and my lil Rat bro (not fat Rat bro @ home, he is too busy with work),
I whined my night away again.
Thanks for listening to me and of course,
giving me your support.
A lot of people care.
No, a lot of friends care rather, but sometimes they are too negative.
And when I get too positive, they still try to add on that bit ot negative ions to neutralise me.
And being the weak and cmi me, I lost it ...
And so, thanks to Rooster Snr and my lil Rat bro, I better wake up my ideas!
Because whatever happen, happens for a reason!
I should never allow myself to step into the runaway train!

*Heard from a friend some shocking news about another couple.
Though shocked, but like what Rooster Snr said, I'm glad i left"

Relatives are at my place.
Time for 'traditional' lunch', which I think I will definitely skip.
Pictures will do the talking later.
I love my family.
Because they love me too, unconditionally.

Friends @ Home

Baby was the first to reach!
And yes, another round of steamboat!
The gals!
Drank so much (again) ...
Napped.
Recharged.
Time to go off to Jen's place!

Nap time ...

Alrighty ...
After all these ...
Yes, time for a nap ...

Dinner @ Bt Batok ...

School ended on a 'high' note.
The kids and I were laughing like mad at the end of the day.
Rushed off immediately after school to execute my 90 minutes plan.
Within the 90 minutes, I reached home (15min), did my stepper (20min), bathed (10min), napped (15min), dry my hair (10min) and sped off to CCAB (20min) for the Track and Field briefing.
After which, went to Bt Timah Plaza's NTUC to get grocery and then off to pick Cher up.
And I shall leave out what my Fan aka Jason aka Irritating Mr Pang said when he called me!
Bleah!
Thanks to Cher's MIL.
As usual, dinner was yummy!




And the kids brought much laughter to our gathering!
Got an irritating email from a parent.
Very irritating and very rude.
I was literally angry.
So when I came home, I did my stepper again.
To work away the anger, and well, it did!
Shall sleep and wake up early to prepare for tomorrow's gathering!

是你变了吗

Was reading Flub's Blog and this song came to my mind when i saw the title. 
每个人都会变吗?
没有人一定不变吗?
Been years since I heard this song, don't even hear it on the radio.
(Ok, but the thing is I don't listen to the radio. Haha.)
I guess I agree with her,
两个相爱的人天天在一起,比较甜蜜,比较实际.
这也不是两个相爱的人结婚的原因吗?
可是当给了对方承诺,又违背了诺言,这又算什么?
I'm not emo, really :)
I'm just reflecting, really :)
Is it really possible to keep to that promise of eternal love?
I remember zz telling me what his godma said about love.
I guess whether or not it is possible, it is up to the person, isn't it so?

SHIT ... TGIF ...

Yes, it is just another workshop on another Thursday.
But well, at least it is Thursday already.
Super tired in school today.
Age is catching up.
Staying out a bit later and having to get up early is no more easy task.
Met Jas at Boat Quay TCC for coffee.
Slept like almost immediately when I got back.
Had yummy breakfast.
Papa made prawn and egg omelette for us to go with bread.
Salad was yummy as usual.
I'm glad that I managed to clear all marking before the end of my free periods.
The workshop was really a pain.
For the content of the workshop, half of us know what to do.
Terrible.
Left at 4plus and the usual gang went walking / running.
I'm super tired.
Not even 8.
I'm lying on the bed after chatting with Chrissy on msn.
TGIF!
