TGIF

Thank God It's Friday again!! and past 5.30pm too!! The weekend begins tonight! heh...

although fridays now are dedicated to my God and Saviour, which means that i'm in AMK vicinity for at least the first 3 hours of every single weekend till next Easter (which also means no more Wala-wala, or EIC, or cute Joseph who's oh-so-sexy on that set of drums). This is how much i Love my LORD. Nah, last Sunday, i had my first ever retreat, and i must say, it's really quite relaxing. ppl are unreasonably nice food is great, lemonade was fantastic, day was warm songs were inspirational... i totally enjoyed myself, talking singing and playing games.

tomorrow will be the day i become a catechumen [don't ask me what that cheem cheem word on is] but anyways, yay!! tomorrow will be going to down to the travel agents to book BKK holiday too!! yay!!

Haha, can't wait to go on holiday! can't wait to get another breather from work. i like it, i do, it's an improvement, i feel like i'm contributing, but it's still work so although i'm happi-er than last time, i can't tell you i'm totally happy.

but personal level, i'm totally happy... wonder, is it really true that only those who fail in their personal life that do well at work? wonder wonder

Wow! I still find the fact that we are already catechumens hard to believe... Yay! I am becoming a Catholic with my baby!

Was looking up the definition of catechumen: One who is being taught the principles of Christianity...

Happy Easter!

Busy Easter weekend! Got my screening report from the doctors on Thursday, I have to cut down on sugars, oily food and carbs.... uhoh, nothing about the lumps so i'm grateful. Marc Jacobs bag arrived in the evening, woohoo!   Good Friday was spent in Church and shopping at Sim Lim Square for Hao-e's new PC. Pilates on Saturday morning after a week's break, super out of shape.  think i should probably start doing some exercises at home and maybe go for swim downstairs when i get a chance. Chewy had a good scrubbing session at noon then off to watch Le Noir at Sands Theatre on Saturday afternoon, fun! Cousin-in-law's wedding dinner at Conrad on Saturday evening, no shark's fin which was a bummer. Easter mass on Sunday morning followed by Qingming thingamie at Mt Vernon. Sunday brunch at York Hotel's Penang Hawker Buffet, yum! Watched 1.5 movies too - GI Joe (meh) and SVFV (vulgar).  SVFV was the movie that  was banned and made the h...

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 ...

dinner at swizzle inn

last night we had a most scrumptious bbq dinner at the original swizzle inn . much much much better than the dinner we had some days back with O and K at the branch in warwick. woo.... i had the char-grilled prime rib and the much famed rum swizzle, while hao-e had the margarita shrimp and strawberry daiquiri. blogging about it brings back nice memories. heh. Oh! C and i found some fresh watercress at the marketplace yesterday. so today's lunch we had watercress soup. i've been yearning for some light clear vegetable soup for some time... especially after a discussion with HL about the lack of vege variety here, and how she spotted kailan on the island! KAILAN !!! how did they manage to get their hands on kailan ?! i was joking with HL that one of the chefs must have secretly brought over some seeds and planted some in his back garden. or else why doesn't kailan appear in the vege aisle of the marketplace as well?! oh, and i bought some canned longan, jackfrui...
