new couple with a new apartment

we were at CoJo's place on Saturday evening... they had just moved into this spanking new apartment on the north shore with a spanking new kitchen which i endeavoured to mess up. the apartment smelt very "new". ahh... wished i had an air-conditioner in our apartment.

hao-e dusted off and packed the wii along for jo, the wii-virgin. our wii has been sitting around feeling neglected for a while now since it tumbled from its new toy pedestal... i suspect the CoJo duo will find more enjoyment out of it. so wii is squatting in their living room enjoying the "new" air from the air-conditioner. i bet it is having the best time of its life, not sweating it out with us at home. traitor.

hao-e slept through equilibrium, which was a shame, hao-e not the show. it's a good movie although i didn't care beyond christian bale a.k.a. batman's pecs or the fact that boromir died like 15 mins into the show. the little son is creepy. need some blusher and a wholesome smile. some cool slick gun choreography though.

menu for dinner was shepherd's pie with a simple easy beansy salad. was going to do jap chicken curry but decided against rice. next time perhaps. if they invite us again. =)

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 ...
