Pass it on

It only takes a spark to get a fire going
And soon all those around, can warm up in its glowing...

Went to Union Sq last night after salsa class with a bunch of fun and beautiful ppl. It was so packed that we couldn't find a spot to dance without stepping on others, bumping into ppl.. All because of Super Mario - the salsa expert who hails from the land first to see sunrise, where rugby players do a menacing war-dance trying to scare their opponents with their foot-stamping, chest-thumping number. Righto! the pl where LOTR was filmed!!! beautiful place. swear i'll return one day, get lost in the mountains, take a hot-air balloon or heli to the mountains, enjoy some wine viewing the sunset, that sorta thing, i think you get what i'm saying.

Anyway, i'm veering off-track here. The point is Mario, from New Zealand (for those who have not gotten it yet...) and his partner, Cassandra Monteiro (i think, not so sure), they were fabulous, fantastic dancers. even tho Mario has a pot-belly!! he really dances well!! wow. they did a short demo as well, which was really really gosh, indescribable. one day, may hao-e and i become as good.. realistically though, i'll be really happy if i could we could be ok social dancers. enjoying each other's company is what's important anyway.

When you return one day...
You will not be lost in the mountains alone. When you take hot-air balloon or heli into the beautiful mountains, there will be someone right beside you, taking in the picturesque scenery. We will be enjoying our wine and toasting each other's company while basking in the sunset, my love...

Back Safe and Sound

This is my first post since we left Bermuda for Singapore more than 3 weeks ago. We are battling serious jet lag this time. it might be the age-factor (yikes!) or because we didn't rest properly on the flights (yes plural!) back cos we were busy trying to exhaust all the new movies on krisworld, or maybe a combination of both lah. but both of us have been trying very hard to keep awake at 3pm. yes, the sleep monster strikes at that hour! thank God we are going to remove time saving tonight, so we have 1 less hour to correct this weekend. talking about movies, twilight was amazingly easy on the eye! although i hesitate to call ourselves twilight converts given that i was highly skeptical at first. but the eye candy in the form of Rob Pattersin/Edward Cullen is really irresistible (did you know Rob Pattersin was Cedric in Harry Potter??) .... argh. i wanna get bitten by this vamp too lor! BITE ME! Hao-e even bought New Moon (the sequal) to read this weekend and i spent almost ...

Back To Reality

It's over! We're finally married (in the eyes of the Church!). It was really pretty fun last sat, thank God for the sunny weather (a bit hot lah, but at least it didn't rain till after), for the wonderful guests and my fantastic friends. hope it wasn't too uncomfortable under the sun for everyone.

IT JUST DOESN'T FEEL LIKE CHINESE NEW YEAR!

As I learn about everyone's plans to welcome the Golden Tiger Year, the more unhappy I become.  Although it was a conscious effort on our part to avoid being home for the Lunar New Year, I cannot help but feel left out during this all-important holiday. On this island, we have all but 1 so-called Chinese restaurant.  Every year, they would put up the red banner a few weeks before CNY. One red banner compared to the numerous ones back home.  How pathetic eh? There is no atmosphere whatsoever. With the "influx" of Chinese kids, 4 in total plus 1 soon-to-be-born, I made myself pack some red envelopes from home, so that the kids can experience a little of the festivities that I am so used to.   WHAT IS CHINESE NEW YEAR WITHOUT THE RED PACKETS? This year, we've upgraded our celebration to include mahjong!  yes, the mahjong set and table arrived last weekend.  hao-e couldn't stop himself from ripping the plastic cover off those ivory -coloured tiles and we ...
