If you didn't know, my dear husband has begun working the asian shift, meaning he starts work in the late afternoon and 'finishes' in the morning. i use the term 'finish' rather loosely because he never really 'finishes' work for the day. the perils of technology you see, the very gadget that is both a curse and cure - the blackberry. it threatens the demise of personal time. because of it, you're expected to 'work' and respond in an instant. hao-e glances at it every other minute, even during mass sometimes which gets on my nerves. he has no life outside of work. i hope he's happy with work.

because of this change, we don't get to see each other on weekdays anymore except for a few minutes in the morning, when i drop the car off for him to drive home, and a few seconds in the afternoon when he drops the car off for me to drive home at 4.30pm. i've lodged a complaint in light of this and have threatened to get a one-way ticket to go back to singapore. in fact, i've set a deadline of 31st December 2009. if i ain't got a good enough job then and hao-e is still working these hours, i will leave Bermuda and head home. it's too hard to not have friends and family around. it's not worth it if i don't get to see my husband either. don't you agree?

Jay Chou

Blasting Jay Chou into my ears with my broken ear-phones.. hee. I still love him so much! one of those singers whose songs cause my body to move and groove to the rhythm. just feel like dancing. my interest in mr chou waned though in recent months due to his new gf. i mean she's an improvement over jolin but i still think she's a bit ah... how shall i put it, not very nice. somehow i feel she's mean. not as guai and angelic as she looks. still have a soft spot for ppl who are nice. why can't ppl be nice? i'm trying to be nice. (my new mantra - " Be nice ") haha. i mean people who know me from before know i'm quite harsh and critical and unforgiving. so nice has got be a NEW mantra for me. Next thing you know, i'll be meditating in a nunnery atop a mountain with a thousand steps cut into it. every morning i'll be climbing down those steps to fetch a pail of water... and jack and i will fall down the hill with the pail and all... yikes, ...

Shujun's Birthday!!

Seems like yesterday when the new year 2005 started.. now it's May, and we've celebrated Beek's, Lihui's and Wanping's birthdays. Time seems to be passing too fast for birthdays for i refuse to admit that i'm older [again], yet it passes too slowly when i'm sad or down. Ah well, life isn't a box a chocolates. nor a piece of cake. it's full of cakes! birthday cakes especially. in 2 days, one of my best mates will be turning 24. it's been more than a decade, us knowing each other from sec sch days. haha! I just want you to know that you'll always going to be my lap cheong. my very cute friend who can sing "one night in Beijing" in both guy and gal's voices and break the record too! my ultra loyal friend who stuck by me all these years, listening to my whining and complaints. i have a lot of respect for ppl who can stand my nonsense, cos well, i'm not an easy person to like.. ask my buddies they'll tell you. [better still, ...

Some news...

I just learnt over the weekend that the last grand-uncle on my father's side had passed on. We weren't that close when he was alive, but i do recall him being a jolly old chap who was always ready with a smile... as far as grand-uncles go, he's the closest one we had. And of course he lived in malaysia which gave us a perfect excuse for a weekend trip up the causeway, far from the hustle and bustle of maniacal singapore. Another shocking piece of news i heard last week in fact was, me best pal's dad seems to be suffering from dementia. i hope he gets better soon cos i know everyone's worried and imagine the pressure on the family! after hearing that, i've been praying every night that my parents remain healthy and happy, especially during this period when i'm away from home. The 3rd piece of shock i had was that friend X and friend Y have gotten together. both of them are my college mates. BUT friend X was with friend A at that time, and friend Y was w...
