不小心

怎么看见他,会让我不小心的想起你。

hardwork

这世界上,很多东西都是需要努力的。
最亲的家人。
最要好的朋友。
最爱的人。
他们都需要你很努力的付出。
也许幸福不会永远,
但起码,现在的我们是在一起的。

从朋友变成情人,这种努力是不是更要加倍?

我相信这世界一定会有一个故事因为我而发生。
在这个故事里,我就是主角。=)

去一趟伦敦,也许心情会好一点。
说不定,会有意想不到的收获。

that circle

Fate that's gone, we can never have them back. Some people try so hard to find that kind of fate back, without realising it's already gone forever. Looking at some past photos, they just reminded me. I almost forgotten I was actually that happy. Like what a friend just told me. You can never be 100% happy. There's bound to be sad times. Just remember the good times, you will be a much happier person that you thought you will be. How true right? But very often, I am so forgetful. I always forget and I dwell on the sad times more. And I just have to keep remind myself to move out from that mood-stirring circle.

Tea time was at TWG cafe. It was good. Love the scones. Love the sinful desserts. Love the wide range of tea. More than you see on the SQ plane. =p

"If you claim to have feelings that you do not have, that is hypocritical. . . But if you express an act of love that is designed for the other person's benefit or pleasure, it is simple a choice." - Gary Chapman

that biscuit tin

You know we always see old people from tv, keeping their money and valuables in rusty biscuit tins. We think it's silly but somehow or rather, maybe it just sets one's mentality that our important things and memories can be well-kept and looked after inside that metal piece.

I actually have one myself too. But mine is more cutie sweetie kind. I know you want to roll your eyes now. Haha. Anyway, it's actually a forever friends biscuit tin. I kept all my neo prints and love getty inside. Out of coincidence, I opened the tin which I haven't touch for years just now. In just split moments, I retrieved so many past memories that I actually forgotten, and people whom I had accidentally forgotten. People who were once so close, how can I don't remember?

And some random condoms with the Japanese cat figuring prints. Duh... Don't ask me how they got there. And I am equally puzzled why such stuffs are in my drawer, stuffed inside my forever friends biscuit tin for years. I am not that kinky. Haha...

So, do you have an old rusty biscuit tin that you kept all your memories as well? Maybe you can start having one. Years down the road when you open it, you may discover some surprises.

:p

routine


Days have become so routine that I find no meaning to blog them down. But I am good, pretty much, still. =)
I hope you are too.
Cheers & loves. :)

the morning note

Some people are really just meant to be friends, only. No matter how many possibilities you can link up with, there are bounds to be loopholes that you can't pretend you don't mind at all. Not so generous afterall, HA.

Well, on a lighter note, Frankfurt is cold but not snowing like last month. Was searching high & low for months over Europe for my LV Noe, and everywhere else seems to be out of stocks. Yesterday headed to town to help friend to get her bags, tried my luck at LV again, popped by, hoping they would give a nod of head and tell me the good news that, "yes we have Noe!", I was once disappointed again.

London end of the month, if it isn't going to be disrupted by my standby before that, I shall hunt down the LV stores again. Can't wait for London actually. :) I miss my strawberry scones and those English breakfasts, and most importantly, the musicals and the shopping.

Pork Knuckles and Beef Goulash soup, accompanied with German Riesling, quite a delicious way to end the evening yesterday. I wonder what's up for later?... =)

Off to the gym first.
Bye Bye loves.

called UP

Called up for Frankfurt tonight.

Embracing the Europe cold and wind again.

Till tomorrow.

flashes of the past

Re-organising the room, digging out at areas you thought you have forgotten, rekindle many flashes of the past. I saw my schools' report books, the stars and hearts folded nicely in bottles from admirers during the schools' days, some old photos that fell behind the cupboard, now half covered with dust, the missing earring that I always thought I have lost it, birthday cards more than a decade ago, and many more photos that bring back a lot of old fond memories.

I paused, think of the past, the good old school days, many many things I had done last time, and for a moment, I realised it has been so many years. And till then, that I felt I am actually happier in the past, somehow. I don't know why. Maybe growing up has changed me. My thoughts were less complicated, less complex in the past. I don't think so much and I have lesser worries. And now, very often I am so lost in my own thought, or maybe even in my own world too. \

I always used to think growing up is tough. Now I think growing up and getting old, seem even tougher.

strange envious

It's kind of a strange envious of a very good friend who got attached around the same time as you or maybe perhaps slightly later than you, getting emotionally engaged, probably walking down the aisle in no time with her perfect half, happily together ever after. Years of ups and downs, and still holding on strong, like a saying that goes, "no matter what happens, as long as we are together." They manage to stick to that vibe. And then you are probably left thinking, does fate decide how our stories end or continue, how many people you have to encounter to realise the missing puzzle in your life? And why sometimes you are deemed to go through much more than many others to enjoy happiness?

The journey seems unpredictable. People stay. People leave. And some who stay, change. Feelings change, hearts change. Many with different goals, different priorities, and somehow they just don't fit into your life now and they probably won't either, fit into your future. And leeching and holding on to those, are probably a waste of your time and emotions.

Just keep walking.

:)

pretty huh

Maybe I will chop and colour my hair like them...=)






Pretty huh~
=p

Let Me Shop


Paris. It was snowing. Half-embracing the cold, half too eager to shop. The heater in the room didn't seem to be working. I practically have to hover myself with blanket and walk around the room with my jacket. Cold red rashes all over my legs and I couldn't help it but to keep scratching them.

There's a sudden urge to snip my tresses away, with strong bangs, blunt cut and cool colours. Maybe I shall do it this Saturday.

I think as the days go by, people start showing true colours and I start noticing who are the real ones.
To love me dearly or just leave me alone, please.
:)

Love.

Amour

Was still packing my running shoes and gym clothes into my bag, just clicked on the web, and realised there's no gym in the Paris hotel. I have to pay Eur15 per day to go to the gym opposite the hotel. What a shame.

The weekend that just past was peaceful. Attended Gerald and Michelle's solemnization, catch up a bit with the old friends. And it's back to reality again. Going Paris tonight, the city of Love. :) One day I must climb up the tower with my Love. It may seem a little over-rated but it somehow symbolises Love.

Someone just commented 2days ago, said I love to roam around. Yeah. I love roaming around, even for nothing, no purpose, no itinerary, sipping Starbucks, eating ice cream, enjoying the wonderful breeze and scene of the world, indulging the sights in front and far ahead of me.

Can't wait for roaming in Paris.

Amour~

Five surprising reasons men are happy in a relationship

Five surprising reasons men are happy in a relationship
by Bonnie Yuill

Don't be fooled by the male ego. Men look for more in a relationship than an attractive women who will cook him a good meal and wash his clothes every once in a while. What he really needs is your admiration.

He needs to communicate with you
A lot of men need to be in a relationship more than women do. Surprising? Not really, when you think about it. Women usually have close relationships with their friends. They talk about health problems until they feel better. But men don't. As Helen Fielding's character, Bridget Jones, says, 'Women have emotions and men have football.' Men are competitive and so, in general, they rarely share their emotions or problems with each other, as they think it makes them look too weak. When he needs to open up and talk about his feelings, guess who he eventually shows his vulnerable side to? You!

He wants to be your hero
Knowing that he can make someone else happy makes him feel good inside, because he has the power to change things. And what bloke doesn't secretly want power of some sort? At least if he can't always be top dog at work, he can be a star at home. Instinctively, he aspires to be Spider-Man or Superman, to be your hero, to be able to make things right: to be appreciated, to be someone's knight in shining armour. So when you are disappointed or unhappy, he feels responsible. What matters is that you are happy and then he's got one less thing to worry about. Strange but true.

He strives to make you happy
The number one reason men leave relationships is because they feel as though they can't meet their partner's needs. This makes them feel inadequate, and it makes them feel as though there's no way their partner can feel respect for them. For women, communication seems to be the top priority in keeping the relationship going but, quite honestly, men don't understand this constant need to talk about things over and over.

For men, the relationship is a success if they feel respected and if they make their partner happy. This is why a new conquest is exactly that. he feels as though he is in charge, he is once again someone's knight in shining armour.

If you resent him because you feel overworked and under-appreciated, stop doing so much, you are probably destroying your relationship! He doesn't want to feel responsible for you rushing around, worn into the carpet, and most men really don't notice whether the housework has been done or not. What they want is respect and appreciation. 'All we really want from women,' a (male) friend recently told me, 'is for you to smile at us.' (And probably one other thing, if he thought about it for longer than a millisecond.)

Sex makes him feel loved
Sex has the same effect on men as romance does on women. So the reverse is also true: no sex = no love, no approval, no acknowledgement. They get that same sad, unloved feeling that you get when you don't get flowers, your partner looks at other women or ignores you.

You are his (secret) reason for living
He needs you because you inspire him to do better, he has someone to do things for, goals to reach, a reason to go out and conquer the world. What's the point of being disgustingly rich and powerful if there's no one to share it with? What he needs is the gift of you.



Haha... Worth a thought.
:p

帮你记得



一首让我有一点小感动的MV。
也许你也该听一下。
:)

帮你记得。

Noted.

Was at Marina Keppel Bay for dinner just now. A beautiful place. Great for hanging out, sipping wine, till late, under the moonlight. :) But it isn't that accessible. You definitely need a car to go in there. Love looking at those yachts and calm sea that accompanied.

Have been down with sore throat and flu bug for the past 10days or so. I, myself feel a wee bit of irritated too. Still, thank you to all who have asked and have shown their concern. The accompany to the visit to the doctor, the pi pa gao and lozenges. The smses and calls. Much noted. :)

I tell myself, I will be okay.

evening

Still have an hour before the clinic reopens again. Was tidying and packing my room, and I gave up. Only managed to settle one corner. Too much mess and random things around. And I have no idea how to handle them. Till I figure out.

Got to do a Bangkok flight tomorrow evening. A favor for Jolynn so that she can go for her exam and a favor for myself also cos she is taking my standby on 10 and I can attend Michelle's solemnization in the afternoon. Quite perfect. Hehe... =p

In need of some movies therapy. I think I already miss out quite a few good shows. And to some people, I am sorry that I flew some of your aeroplanes. Unintentionally with some intentions, but I will try to make it up.

Ever feel disappointed at people or at events in your life? There was disappointment because there was hope. Even you know there's a chance of being set into disappointment, don't give up
the chance to be hopeful. I am still trying to be very positive. Haha...

Very often we say good friends, close ones, dearest ones, even if you don't see one another often, emails, sms, phone calls do the tricks as well. They compensate the missing time with one another. But then again, ever wonder, it's just not enough if you all never meet face to face. True?
Yeah...at least for me, I think it's.

Okay...time to get change, visit mr doctor and go for dinner.

I hope your evening is good.
I am thinking.

:)

hand of love

Has 2010 been good so far? For me, I think it's still not too bad. A week of sore throat and flu, I am surviving and fighting well, still. Bravo. But I guess a visit to the clinic seems needy if they never go away. Met michy earlier on. Am so happy and excited for her little big day on sunday. A dinner together before she becomes mrs. Great catching up of the old days, present and the future. Congrats on finding the mr right. :)

Embrace~ :)

Been a week, and it hasn't recovered. Woke up umpteen times in the night to clear the throat and half-blocked nose. Quite a torture. Having breakfast now. And then it's time to prepare for work again. Coming home~ =) The sixth day into twenty ten. Maybe something good will happen. *just trying to be positive* Ha... =p

Read someone posted this on Facebook, "The price of love is your ego. The two can't co-exist. Which one do you want?"
Very true isn't it? Very often we are greedy we want both huh? And end up having nothing left. Was reading someone else's blog too and she talked about how deeply in love and how much she has sacrifice for the relationship, and still sometimes feels hurt and unappreciated. Maybe the problem isn't her, neither is all his Exes. It could be him, himself.?

I don't know. I maybe wrong. Anyway, the black coffee tastes exceptionally good today? Why huh? Maybe I shall make a 2nd cup before heading for the shower.

Have a great day everyone, be in at work, school, home or if you are out with your friends or loved ones. Remember it's a new year, not worth to be angry with people or matters, it's more worthy if you yourselves are happy and say more praises than criticisms. You will feel the day will end with a little tad of sweetness even if it has been a hard day before.

Embrace~ :)

Love.

happy endorphins

They say exercise gives you endorphins. Endorphins make you happy. And I totally agree! Just came back from the gym. Bumped into colleagues and friends all over. Crew room was just beside the gym and they were having a party down there. Drinking, dancing and making noises. Was running half-way and my crew came to disturb, increase the running speed tremendously on my machine. And after gym, was even dragged to drink with them. Down with flu and sore throat, plus I just exercised, efforts shouldn't be wasted huh? And yet people claimed alcohol is good for flu and sore throat? Ar...whatever.

Just had a cup of yogurt and a green apple. Feel pretty healthy still. Ready for a shower, tidy up the luggage, paint the nails, watch some drama and sleep. Ok..or maybe I should read. Hehe...

Good night!

sick belle



Fallen sick.

Sore throat, flu, cold, waking up every other hour to clear the throat and nose. It was irritating. That explains the swollen eyes. *roAR*

Milan is colder than expected. Light snow, strong wind. But the delightful part is the italian food and the Sales that was everywhere. Pasta, pizza and tiramisu, and all the big brands. Abercrombie is here too. Took a picture with one of the hunks. The body that craves every girl. Haha.

Just came back from shuttle to Barcelona. Had lunch and did a little supermarketing. Need to gym in awhile. *yawn*

milano love~

来到了米兰,还是有点小紧张。
一年没来了。
对它还是有点小偏爱。
比想象中还要寒冷的天气,真的有点震撼。
虽然感冒了,但还是觉得幸福。

米兰的怀抱,我很期待。
现在该去洗个热水澡,敷了脸,睡了美容觉。
希望我起来的时候,可以看到一瞬阳光的小意外。

first flight

Ever being judge for being someone whom you are not? Very often, we tell ourselves, we tell our loved ones not to be too bothered or affected by what others have to say about you. But sometimes it just pricks that little bit still. We all have emotions and feelings. Just that don't be too carried away.

Off to my first flight of the year later, Milan. =) Haven't been there for a year. Time to breath the cold air over there. Though still not feeling exactly well, throat still irritates pretty much, I am still looking forward. =) And yet I can't wait to be back. Can't wait for the few off days to be around. And the good friend's solemnization on 10th. I have a SSS7. Need some savior.

Alright. Till Milan, I will be good.
=)

Love~

first day

I start off the new year with an ultra sore throat, and it tags along with a sexy voice. Nevertheless, I have a strong feeling it's still going to be a great year. With lots of happy surprises, delicate success and true happiness. I am hopeful you see.... Hehe... =p

A friend smsed me earlier on this afternoon. He said one of his new year resolutions is to see me. *laugh* Been years since we last met, since poly days maybe? Or maybe not so far apart. I can't exactly remember. And I was always the harder one to meet. He claimed. Ha. Well... and it seems like it all depends on me to fulfil this resolution.
*grin*

Every year we set new year resolutions for ourselves and how often do we actually follow and fulfill the targets we set for ourselves? I am so guilty of that.

Life has been good so far, but definitely it can be better. I am still enjoying life up in the air. Though some of the days can be demoralising and unmotivated, I whine and complain and bitch about how shitty some colleagues or passengers can be, there are still wonderful people around and efforts put in are made worthwhile. In the new beginning, I hope I can be more patient with myself, as well as the people around me. A lot of things can paint a different picture if I could be patient and listen to what the other party has to say, before jumping into conclusion that, that is it.

I hope I can be in better control of my own finance. Stop spurring unnecessary money on unnecessary things and start a stronger saving plan for the future. It's for my own good la huh?

Get my ass moving more often and exercise more regularly! There is a strong need for me to get shapier and the best to shed some kilo off my body. Seriously, is there a faster way? Please don't tell me diet pills or slimming salons or ask me don't eat. Haha. Ok. I shall look forward to results.

Some people think I look icy-cold or dao when they don't know me. But frankly I can't help it. I look this way lei... I will try to be a little friendlier. In case if I don't smile or I look like I can kill you with my eyes, I am sorry but this is Yolene. Ha. Love her or hate her. ;p

No more time wasting. People and things don't wait for you. I keep reminding myself.

Appreciate and treasure the people around me. Don't lose them without knowing actually they are so important to me. Life is too unpredictable for you to realise things when it all becomes too late.

What else? Maybe I will add on to the bucket list as the days and thoughts come by.

I hope it has been a great start for all of you. It doesn't matter where you are now. It doesn't matter who you are with now. Somewhere, someone out there, at some part of the world is thinking of you. And God is kind. He has planned a wonderful year ahead for each and everyone of us. There maybe hiccups along the way. But bear in mind, it's always the obstacles that make us successful at the end of the day.

So...did you just love me a little more now than before? Or did you just kinda miss me already? Haha...

Happy New Year!

Love ya all! ~
