i blame it on tea.... and the Flavia beverage maker... the office for having the bev maker in the pantry... Flavia for making good white tea and green tea flavourings...

i don't remember my dreams. i never wake up in the worst thunderstorms. check both for last night and the night before. argh.

the night before, i woke up at 3am to close the windows. in my household - i.e. between hao-e and i - the carpet would be soaked if i didn't wake up to slam shut the window. fell back to dreamland and dreamt of a night out with the gals - corb, wp and jo are the 3 faces i remember - at a bar of some sort. we were chatting and drinking and wp and i were discussing tanya's newest album which i've been raving about during my waking hours.... good and pleasant dream.

last night, i fell asleep at 11pm thinking i could clock a good 8 hours of sleep. of course not! the last few hours were bad. i dreamt that hao-e and i were viewing an apartment which looked so fantastic from the front end, but if you ventured to the backyard, you'll see weird, disabled looking guys walking around with axes and this dense, tall, dark vegetation. the current owner is this old, weird lady with an even weirder grandson(?). the agent was selling the apartment so hard, but the house was just too eerie and we fled. talk about bad feng shui. it has all the worst feng shui elements. i don't know whether it's due to the 3 cups of white tea, or the can of diet coke, or too much dinner, or the fact that we are actually viewing an apartment today (bad omen??) or the news reports of tall cannibis plants being found in Sandys parish or maybe a combination of all of the above factors. bad bad dream...

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 ...
