Jet Lag

Have been waking up at 5am the past few mornings and feeling groggy in the later parts of the day. It must be jet lag. Bermuda is afterall 11 hours behind Singapore so i suppose i will need 11 days to get over this... argh... its miserable waking up when it's still dark and having to surf the net cos there's absolutely no way to go back to sleep. and the hunger!! argh!! ate 2 alpen bars this morning at 5.30am cos tummy was growling aloud! yeps, so loud it woke hao-e up! haha.

Last night, we went to La Trattoria - an italian restaurant in washington mall between reid and church street. Ordered Lasagna and immediately regretted it. too meaty and cheesy. should have stuck with something like vongole in white wine sauce. still ate about half the serving (it was huge) as it was a treat. heh...

Seems like there are a couple of jobs available, contrary to expectations. so as long as i'm willing to do some serious learning on the job, i should be able to get one when my dependent visa is approved. hmm... now to hunt down my cv which i am certain is in the hard drive somewhere.

Btw, i finished the korean series "Foxy Lady" just half an hour ago. (well, what did you expect me to do really!?!) so there really isn't any more excuse not to start studying for some accreditation. (except that my sudoku book beckons... tempting)

Tonight, we may go to the club to play some badminton. frankly i'm not into badminton. (i totally suck at the game.) but if it means meeting some nice people then i don't mind paying $$ to just hang out and burn some calories in the process.

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.

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 ...

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 ...
