FRIDAY!!!

it's friday darlings! yippee! and it's the weekend before christmas!! super exciting. tis the season to be jolly, everyone's in a holiday mood!!

we went over to hao-e's big boss' place for dinner on wednesday night. their house is gigantuous and so well-decorated for the season. and their chef (you'd heard right, they have a live-in chef) made such good food!! there were 3 soups - pea, banana (?! amazingly delicious did i mention?!), and a third i can't remember what. the soups were served in small little cups. super cute! for mains, there was roast turkey with gravy/cranberry sauce, peas, roast potatoes and red cabbage. i'm drooling as i recall them... and for dessert, there was a date cake with vanilla ice-cream. absolute HEAVEN! i want their chef john. such a darling. one day.... when $$ isn't an issue, i want a live-in chef too! and he must be able to make the date cake... if he comes with a cute scottish accent as well, all the better... haha...

funny how the conversation dragged on till past 11pm. me was so tired after that, i drove crazily. like super fast compared to normal standards. and we were so low on gas, we had to drive back to the city where there's the only 24-hour gas station before going home. finally reached home at 12mn. sleep came near 1am.

was zombified the whole of yesterday, so i went to bed at 9pm. yeps. slept all of 10 hours.

oh, and have i mentioned it's friday?

The Tudors

I just realised how good looking Jonathon Rhys Meyers is? Gosh, i just love his chiseled face and beautiful eyes. Anyway, so i chanced upon this new series loosely based on THE Henry VIII, second king of the Tudor Dynasty. You guys should watch it if you are as besotted with him and as fascinated with anything royal as i am. hehe.... So i went to find out a bit more about the rather infamous king on wiki and here's some trivia about his eventful life ( i bet, with so many women around him?!) Technically, Henry was only married twice. Four of his marriages were annulled which means they never took place. His court jester was named Will Somers . The only surviving piece of clothing worn by Henry VIII is a cap of maintenance , awarded to the Mayor of Waterford , along with a bearing sword, in 1536 . It currently resides in the Waterford Museum of Treasures . Henry VIII was the first member of the English Royal Family to wear silk stockings.

it's funny how you learn things about yourself - your likes and dislikes - every single day. here's a list of dislikes: eager beavers people who fake an accent people who talk more than they do people who claim credit when they've done nothing (oh! old debts) back-stabbers gossipers (is there such a word?) that stir up trouble like there ain't enough of that already?! inconsiderate people .... more to come, i just know it is it too much to ask to have decent people around? there's a chinese saying, that even on the same hand the fingers are of different lengths. but is it really impossible to have everyone cross a certain threshold of decency and not stick out like a sore thumb? i've often wondered why some 40 year olds act the way they do - as if they hate the whole world. i think i'm in danger of being that sort of 40 year old as the list gets longer, and i meet more obnoxious people. argh.

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...
