Today....

Today is my birthday.
A day to celebrate as it's the anniversary of my birth.
A day my mum will believe an anniversary of her pain as she has to undergo the labour before I'm presented into the world. Nevertheless she's being convinced to keep celebrating for me year after year. haha...

Thanks to all who send me their best wishes...and thanks for the presents I received to date... hehe... the list as follows:

1) Ah Hua Bear (given together with Francis bear) from Jess, Gooi & Feng
2) Aaron Kwok concert ticket and birthday cake from Sis
3) Pink Coach wristlet (born in Tokyo), birthday ornament and flowers from 神秘人
4) Gem stone earrings from 贝儿 in HK
5) "Pearl" earrings from Cool-san in HK
6) Earrings from TML
7) Precious moments cup from Jeanne
8) "I love Fri" T-shirt and Pink Rainbow Care bear from Louisa
9) Wii games and set from Myself (as Babe as said... we need to reward ourselves with presents! )

and not forgeting the Birthday lunches and dinners....

Well another year has passed... and I've indeed stopped putting all the candles onto the cake and only 1 now (Have forgotten when I've started the habit haha). Hopefully I can stay young in the process? And maybe I have to slowly change my wardrobe and buy more mature clothings? =P

As I grew older I sometimes think what I have achieved in life because it seems that time passes very fast. I love travelling but it seems I've been stuck in HK and Japan in these 2 years! haha... maybe I need to explore beyond that soon. I remember I still have many fantastic places like Egypt, Spain, Greece, Mauritius, Tuscany in Italy, Scotland, England, Russia, Turkey, Australia etc that I've yet to explore.

Guess I need to work on this soon.... and on my dream. Maybe the no-pay leave of once a month could be a good start to the realisation of these.... and provided I still could finish my work in time! haha...

Confessions of a Shopaholic

A light-hearted comedy indeed. So many scenes that I had uncontrollable bursts of laughter.
I love the part when she used so many credit cards to pay for a shawl.
I love the part when she went to the hot dog stall to queue and request for cash back.
I love the part she hit her boss with the fan as she danced with him.
I love the part she went uncontrollable shopping and snatched the boots.

Of course I also felt sad when she saw the man she loved with another woman. There're touching moments naturally. Her life full of ups and downs. And in the end a happy ending naturally. If not, it'll leave many people disappointed. Including me. Though the cynical side of me also wondered if it will only happen in movies as it's too good to be true in real life.

I guess I love the show too because it somehow talks about something close to my heart. Something I could relate to. I'm not a shopaholic. But I do like to shop, especially when you realise there's bargains.

I can vividly remember my shopping in Osaka, Japan on the last day when I bought my favourite clothes and bag. Especially my bag. When I bought the bag, I was very excited and happy. It's as if you're the happiest person. Very satisfied. I guess to the extent when I used it on the plane back, and when the air steward nicely asked me to place it on the floor, I guess I must have shot daggers at him. My first thoughts were "How could he ask me to put my precious bag onto the floor? He must be crazy and ought to be scolded!" haha.. that's how irrational I was. A woman in love indeed. But not with a man then but with a bag. As such, I guess I could somehow felt how the leading actress felt then in the movie when she walked into the dazzling store and see all the wonderful shopping items being displayed.

I also felt a bit overwhelmed when I watched the show. I pondered and wondered. I guess maybe because of the fact the man resigned and set up his own company to realise his dream, standing on his own feet. I realised that I have yet to realise my dream too. Maybe I should start working to my dream too. And not keep writing in my new year resolution every year but no progress made.

Oh and I'm supposed to learn baking too... according to my best friends when we had a small chat at Mos Burger... haha as she had a dream... at her current mature age.. Oh on 5th April 2009 =) hehe.. anyway who knows we'll become a great baker next time... though I seriously wonder about my talent in this particular field... as I seriously lack patience.. hehe.. Anyone interested to be the guinea pig on my baking???

水果蓝

这一两天我阅读着<<水果蓝>>的漫画系列. 像一两年前阅读时一般, 我依然非常感动.
泪水依然不自觉便滑落.
记得笫一次见到它的动画片时, 我被它的台词感动了:

"雪溶化了会变成什么?"
答:"春天" (而不昰水)

就这样我开始阅读了这本少女漫画.
十二生肖与神的牵绊或诅咒.
故事人物的内心世界与爱情.
想爱又害怕.
因为他们不是正常人.
昰被十二生肖附身的人.
一跟异性拥抱就会变身为动物.
他们也不能违抗神的意思.
故事不但感人,又不忘搞笑.
因为再开心的人也有忧虑和他的秘密.
他们多了一份人性,并不完美.
所以我喜欢.

我喜欢的台词例:

1) 我喜欢你. 这点是坚定不移的亊实.

2) 如果在人生中, 能够连一步都不会踏错的话, 那不知道该有多好!
好是好啦, 但是.... 那是不可能的!
就算失败, 跌倒, 迷失, 走错路,
也只能够慢慢地, 一步一步地,
硬著头皮走下去.
靠自己的双脚, 就算遍体鳞伤...
也要祈祷...
祈祷终有一天会抵达某个地方...
祈祷终有一天会到达某个人的身旁.

3) 你希望有人呵护你.
希望有人注意到你.
希望有人需要你.
希望有人...
聆听你的心声.
了解你... 接受你...
希望有人... 爱你.
而我... 就是这样的人.

4) 你有恋童癖吗?
不是! 是你投胎得太慢...

5) 原来是因为寂寞啊...
我希望自己的视线...
能跟她相同.
即使只有一点点,
我也希望能了解她.
如果不能那样,
那我待在她身边就一点意义也没有.

Dedication of Song

Guess it's more than 10 years ago when I first heard this song sang in the musical production "Carousel" organised by my school. It was very touching and I love this song, be it the lyrics or tune.

Will like to specially dedicate this song to Babe....

"When you walk through a storm hold your head up high,
And don't be afraid of the dark.
At the end of a storm is a golden sky
And the sweet silver song of a lark.
Walk on through the wind,
Walk on through the rain,
Tho' your dreams be tossed and blown.
Walk on, walk on with hope in your heart,
And you'll never walk alone,
You'll never walk alone!"

Babe, you'll never walk alone be it in the storm or rainbows.
As you'll always have friends like me who'll be with you sharing your joys and troubles.
Take care.

Forever Love

This is the song by Wang Lee Hom, I heard during one of my friend's wedding.
A lovely song... to share with all...

爱你, 不是因为你的美和影
我越来越爱你,
每个眼神触动我的心
因为你让我看见forever
才了解自己,
未来这些日子
要好好珍惜

爱我, 有些痛苦有些不公平
如果真的爱我不是理所当然的决定
感到你的呼吸在我耳边
像微风深情温柔的安抚,
我的不安定
所以我要
每年研究你的笑容Wo~~
多么自然

Forever love forever love
我只想用我这一辈子去爱你
从今以后,
你会是所有
幸福的理由

爱情, 是场最美最远的旅行
沿途遇经泥泞
偶尔阻碍我们的前进
感到你的体温在我怀里
像阳光和煦
巧妙的熔化
我的不安定
不可思议
证明我爱你的理由
WO
多么自然你感动的眼睛,
我沉默的声音,
仿佛就是最好的证明
就让我再说一次
I love you ~~
直到永远
oh
Forever love Forever love Forever love

Reflections Age

Saw this at someone's facebook. Quite interesting... haha... though I'm not 30 yet..
but could feel time passed really very soon... Dedicated to my friends who are 30 and over.
Let us wish for the best in the future and friends forever...

" 三十而立；四十而不惑，五十知天命。。。
红尘滚滚；岁月匆匆；
走过三十，回忆过去成败梦想，对未来要充满更多的热诚，希望。尽管路上似乎有许多风雨。。。
感谢知心的朋友和我走过这人生的三十年。。。"

Punggol End

Went to Punggol End with 神秘人 the other day for the 1st time...
Rather surprised to see the lalangs and nature there... quite interesting...
A journey to the countryside... and some photos to share...
