Merry December

Feeling super pissed rite now, had no idea what happen to my latest blog entry which I wrote last nite. Maybe I wrote it in my dreams.

Haha

December was an equally eventful month, a busy but happy month cause it's Xmas!!

Bought the most Xmas presents but spent the least time buying them this yr. Cuz I think of the gift that I wanna buy first instead of wasting time roaming ard overly crowded shopping malls.

A recap of my Xmas month, i can't believe so much has been done.

Ran my first marathon. Saw these 'motivation' quotes that people pinned on themselves. Regretted not writing one too.

The weather was super hot. But with R running beside me, it really motivates me to keep going. But I realise one thing too, it is impossible to run while holding hands with ur partner.

IMPOSSIBLE for me that is.

Think most people already know except for goondu me.




























Been to 6 Xmas celebrations

Serve in church nursery (love seeing the toddlers)

Been to 2 Babies shower, the food was really good, they truly taste as good as it looks. Caterer from Neo Garden I think.






















Eden is so cute lar, u grow up liao, next time Ah Yi confirm bring u go play.


Gotten First prize at a singing contest. Haha. Sing Hokkien song, Won a 32". TV somemore.
YEAH!!~~

Am glad that my 'performance' has brought much entertainment to everyone. A sign of a good start towards the new year at my company.






Drank Collagen drink for the first time, have research online and they seem to contain so much goodies in them. Gonna invest & drink them for a month. Watch me Glow~~




Haha my sleepwear is damn 'chwui' I know. Housewife wannabe. Ok Gonna be monitoring my face.

Eventful Nov

Eventful November.

After procrastinating for months, thinking about it for years, I finally join a church ministry. Since 3 weeks ago, I start serving in the nursery in my church. It's fun but it's really tiring for me, following the young kids everywhere.

I think cuz I'm new so I intend to try to have something to do all the time, like starting a new job. Cuz when I look ard the room, all the rest looks relax n sometimes bored (maybe sleepy) although a cute kid is playing in front of them.

Being in a nursery gives me mixed feelings about having a child of my own. For a moment when a really really cute baby is playing in front of me, It makes me yearn to have one too but the next moment I wld see an irritating fella snatching other babies toys or crying out loud jus cuz they dun wanna share their toy.Which breaks my thought totally.

HaHa.

And of cuz, old news. My baby nephew is out. Heard he is capable of doing many many cute expression AND also cry fiercely when unprovoked.





Handsome Boy. It's really hard To play with babies. Cuz I came to realize, the key seems to lies in how good u r in distracting them, getting their attention, cuz at infant stage they r nt gonna play peek-a-boo with u definitely.

The sad thing is that a pity Eiden can never see or be carried in the arms by PoPo. Cuz my Ah Ma passed away on Sat. Died of old age at a respectful age of 93. She died while being surrounded by most of her children. Am so glad & truly thank God for the blessing, allowing her to not died alone. My aunts told me dat my Ah Ma had often ask, when is she leaving, she wish to leave, cuz all her friends are gone. I dunno but jus feel sad. It's like a let in on how she felt inside. Really lonely.

On weekdays, as she is wheelchair bound, her only entertainment would be tv watching & talking to the maid. Her Indonesian maid understands English, Chinese and Dialect. But still the sucky feelin of nothin much to look forward in life, to jus live ur life day by day. I jus couldn't imagine.

Jus finish funeral procession of Ah Ma last 9 days ago. Took almost 8 hrs. My tears came only when Ah Ma was gonna be push into the furnace, any human being would wept buckets when u see and hear ur mum & relatives crying out loud, calling out.

Though I never really got a chance to get to know her better or let her have a chance to know me better cuz she was already close to 70 when I learnt to speak.

It really makes me wanna have a kid fast. My mum is already coming to 65. I want my kid To be able to chit chat with both my parents, know them with their heart. To have a grandparents bonding.

There is really nothin much I can play with him, cuz newborn are so fragile. I dun even dare to carry him. But it's so interesting to see that tiny chap making small sound and a shiver every now & than.

Gonna visit Sis again after work, can't wait for the day to be over!

Note: Rem, Babies are only cute n fun to play with IF THEY ARE NOT YOURS!

An opportunity is knocking, decisions need to be made. Need to think things.

Happy Deepavali

Had a wonderful weekend well-spent with 老公 :)

Went for a nice buffet lunch at MBS, there isn't much variety, Shangri-la The Line is still much much better.

But I still love buffet. Who don't. With endless supply of salmon, nice air-conditioned environment,nice background music and company of yandao guy, it makes anyone a happy gal.

























That's the size of my strawberry, see so BIG! My grape looks puny sitting beside.




They even got Mango Sago with mango cubes! Wah this was the best man, somemore the taste got Crystal Jade standard.

I would have place more food pics if they have better variety, but that's really abt all they have. They do have plenty of desserts but to me, choc fondue is all dat matters.

We walk back to Singapore Flyer where R park his car. Walking to n fro was tiring, and with the good food in our tummy , we went home straight n spent the rest of the afternoon sleeping till dinner time.

Eat Sleep Eat. Arrhh BLISS~~

Second day of Holiday, went cycling at East Coast Park early in the morning with R and friends. It's been so long since I've cycled day, went to my favorite friend's son birthday party where candy floss, candy treats and very very nice curry chicken awaits us.








Went home and sleep all the way till dinner time. Super Shiok lol!

Final day of Holiday. Went Church and than to ROBINSON EXPO Sale!!

Baby R so sweet la, paid for my steve madden shoes and two more pair of sandals. I love Robinson Sale lar, there is really alot more stuff there than lousy Metro sale. Robinson Sale usually has lotsa good brands. Imagine Steve Madden shoes, Nine West, Aldo and umm haha Espirit.

Went for lunch n than... LoL

Head straight home to sleep all the way till Dinner Time. In overall, I was truly well-rested during this holiday break. Hahaha.

R cooked laksa for us again, last week attempt failed as the soup was a little diluted. This week BESt!




See! Got LotSa ingredients, LotSa Mee and Delicious Thick Gravy!

So proud of 老公, mus 疼 him more.

Brush with Death

Saw this weak housefly while shopping for ingredients for our homemade laksa. As we r in the frozen food dept, R deduced the fly is close to freezing, i guess as much as well. Poor chap.

Anyway, It's the first time I ever gotten so close to one, they usually fly away before u r even 5cm close.







Trust me, my iPhone was like really really close to it, I even tried killing it by pressing a pkt of tau pok on it. (what! 早登极乐, no need be housefly ma) But guess it's a housefly with backbone, it hardly flinch at my attack, so i decide to let it off.

Dun think I Christian dunno what is 放下屠刀,立地成佛ok.



Tried washing the toilet at my 'new' home again. Yes :) it's AGAIN. I tried washing it last week, brush n brush, scrub n scrub, end up nearly dieded due to over inhale of the fumes that comes out from the toilet bleach which I had happily spray around generously thinking that more means toilet will be cleaner n whiter.

What's worse, I accidentally push the door close so the fumes was all around me. It was really bad, my 眼泪鼻涕直流leh,just can't stop them. Cough and cough like mad. I really really thought im gonna die in the small bathroom cause the fumes were choking and I couldn't breathe, cuz every breath would just result in inhaling more of the toxifying bleach, coughing causes me to breathe in more fumes too, I had to use my every remaining strength to push open the door, open tap n quickly rinse the bleach away.

Never knew how much danger a cleaner is exposing herself too everyday.

Anyway, this time round, I dilute my toilet bleach with detergent cuz my mum say that helps to remove stains :) The dilution helps reduce the smell of bleach n I'm more careful in the amt of bleach I used. Haha, R is gonna be so proud of me! Cuz I'm closer n closer in being the 进得了厨房,出得了厅堂的女人

Unnecessary 3D

It's hard to start once you've stopped. But I also believe it's hard to stop once you've start. Wish to get back the momentum of blogging. Miss the fun in penning down moments of my life. Love to read my own back entries, laughing at memories.

Finally had a chance to go dating with new hubby, haha! Rarely had a chance to spent whole day with hubby. Watched 'The Child's Eye' in 3D at Plaza Sing. Title sounds interesting but at the end of it, there is jus a weak linkage of the plot to the title. Trailers seem so good, but it's plot n thrills pales in comparison with other horror movies. Had expected more from the Pang brothers really.

There were a few moments where I really did cringe in fear but the scare factor seems to be a duplicate from Thai\HKG horror movies.

What's worse of all, is that it's available only in 3D! It's like 'what the...'

It's not like there is lots of gory, blood and action. Is it really necessary for us to watch Rainie walk around an empty hotel in 3D. Imagine watching Paranormal in 3D. And this is only available in 3D. So the directors is like forcing us to watch it in 3D even though it's completely unnecessary.

Bo Liao rite!

I doubt filming it in 3D is for cinema patrons to have better movie experience, it's jus their way to charge more expensive tickets lor. And they blame people for illegal downloads.

Well I did ended up watching the show anyway but it's becoz I thot since there's a need to film it in 3D, i assume the plot, sound effects, visuals mus be super good lor. Wrong!

Bo Liao Part 1: Dog bark to empty space. Empty chair 7-8 metres in front start shifting TOWARDS them. All actors remain rooted, staring at empty chair. Turn to run only when 'something' hurls the chair at you.

Bo Liao Part 2: Show takes a sudden twist and becomes Resident Evil. Main actress friends who are supposed to be safe and sound in hospital ends up being captured by ghost, and returns as zombie to harm Main Actress. Main Actress whom is in the haunted hotel herself has nothin happen to her, can even bare-fist fight, punch and kill her zombie friend, twice.

To give it credit, the plot is funny lar at some part, cuz it doesn't makes sense ma.

Wasted $14! 2 tickets $28 leh! Wa Liao~~ I dun mind watching movie, dun mind paying extra for 3D movies but it mus actually be good and worth it rite.

Married life is good, but the feeling is still pretty fresh alright. Everytime I'm out with R, I feel like we were still back in our dating stage, its like the getting married part is just another activity we have done. As if I'm still gonna be heading home later after a day out, home as in my own home in sunny east side. Maybe it's due to the fact I'm stayin with his family members, so need a longer time to feel the belonging of being a part of another family. Hee, thats a good thing actually for now.

Home doesn't feel so relax, so comfortable YET, but I know it jus takes time. I sometimes wonder if that's how my sis-in-law felt when she's staying with us.

Some unhappiness has happen in the household, hope she will not disappoint the people who care for her again. 人长大了,该为自己前途想想了。

Married Women

Yes, Yes, Im a married woman now. Taking my first step into the first instalment of my ever after fairytale. So many happy things has happen unil I don't really know where should I start blogging about.

There are so many people to thank, which I'm gonna have to spend some time meeting them over dim-sum to thank.

Now first some pics from my most wonderful, most amazing Hen's night. I have never ever imagine that my Hen's night would be so much fun. Friends specially prepared a deck of polker cards which has a number of challenge cards which me and my fellow jie-mei (we are having our hennies together!!) has to pick and choose, we ended our night with lotsa games and dares, it is simply indescribable fun.

I had never thought that I would actually be having a Hen's Nite cuz Im not really a fun fun kinda person. So was everything was really really a very very pleasant surprise.

I had never knew how much stress the wedding preparation was giving until the day before the wedding and after. Though I did not suffer from insomnia cuz I only get to catch 1.5 hrsof sleep, my heart was palpitating pretty hard alright, it was super scary. The night before is like some kind of dooms day. My mind keep thinking what have I not done yet, and there are really much things not done.

Well what people said do makes a lot of sense, really. That its expected that not all things will run perfectly smooth on your wedding, you gotta expect the unexpected. True, yes, I can now say its really true. But really, these words should only be mention after the wedding and not before. Cuz when a bride is lost in thoughts, nothing you say will really gets in, cuz we will always think that YOU DUN UNDERSTAND. It's like giving advice to a friend that has just been ditched.

Well, so in short, not all things run well as expected, actually majority did not went well, but as everything just happen in a rush and before I knew it, everything was over and I am Mrs Lee already. I manage to grasp the meaning of 'to expect the unexpected'. But that is as I've said, after the wedding.

Now pictures :)

I'm so so happy that I opt for a natural Korean bride kind of make-up and hair-style. I lurve my look and fell in love with my reflections several times. Haha.

Ok, my hubby is asking me to bed, continue tmr. hee.
