TODAY'S A HISTORIC DAY - SAVE THE PAPER!

Today's newspapers sold like hot cakes! or more like a new batch of krispy kremes fresh from the oven. On the front pages of almost every paper, every tabloid is the new first family of the (al)mighty USA. Barack Obama became the first black american president in history. wow. never thought i'd see the day - or rather i'd never thought i'd witness it so early on in my life. imho, there was only one main factor - Bush stank, the economy stank, hence the Republicans are being punished. i guess any Democrat will win the election, not necessarily a black american democrat.

but anyway, i'm happy about the results. i didn't stay up like half the island did. but i'm pretty happy he won. he's young, i'd expect him to be less wily, more passionate and gungho about making the necessary changes. May God Bless him with wisdom and courage!

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.
3.5 more working days. my mind is on holiday! last evening's kickboxing class totally killed me! i huffed and puffed and threatened to punch my imaginary opponent senseless, but in the end, it was i that suffered, not the air molecules that got knocked around. my body is aching like a 90-year-old who's just completed 100 push-ups. i couldn't sleep last night because of the pain. i had to wake hao-e up to massage my shoulder-blades which were so sore and is still kicking up a ruckus behind me. my gosh! i tis old and feeble.
