i finally joined the gym. there was an initiation fee of USD150 and a monthly membership of USD110. as i had already missed the first 7 days of January, they gave me a pro-rated fee of USD95 for January 2008. (still feels weird writing and typing "2008"... it's the beginning of the year syndrome. i remember feeling even weirder when the year 2000 started... that was what, 8 bloody years ago?! yikes!)

well, the money has been spent. (i spend my money, i might add. keke.) so i have to go use the gym regularly to make it worthwhile. no more excuses. i started with hi/lo class last evening. nearly died as it's been almost 10 months since i'd gone to an aerobics class, and a long long time since i'd moved any of my limbs. (other than my fingers scrolling the mouse and double-clinking on the weblinks.) was hyperventilating near the end and had to step outside the room to catch my breath. aiyoh... me tis very old.

now my calves are still achey though the rest of me seems fine. looks like i hadn't really worked out yesterday... it's kickboxing this evening. pray that i won't faint.

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 ...
