I think me doth getting old. Have been feeling kinda nostalgic lately, maybe because i've been having so much time on my hands now. Recalled many people's faces from pri sch. it's been like what.. almost 14 years since i left the school. and i can still remember all the times we had, going to first friday mass, being a "reading sister" and having to read to the lower pri people who were a little weaker before school started, playing hopscotch at the back of the canteen, being a traffic monitor and helping schoolmates cross the street safely, yelping and laughing so hard at the back of the school bus and getting yelled at by the bus driver, etc... those were such carefree days. we could just talk about everything. and amazingly, i can still recall all of their faces and most of their names! we had a good time together but i haven't been able to keep in touch with the frens made there. there were many gals called pamela, gladys, joanna, wei ling, guess those were the popular names back then.

i tried hunting for these old frens through friendster and managed to find some, including one of my best mates ever then. she still looks the same. the same boyish grin, cept that there's a hunk next to her now. haha. hopefully she still remembers me, and maybe just maybe (fingers crossed) we'll be frens once more.

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 ...
