Leaving for Milan

Leaving for Milan tonight. Haven't been there for a crazy long time. And strangely, I haven't really been looking forward to it actually. Is it cos the other half isn't visiting the Italian town with me? Or is it cos I have somehow or rather, lost the passion of having the sky as my playground?

Nonetheless, am pretty much looking forward to coming home, with the few days of leaves thereafter in Singapore, going to finalise my US Visa, meet up with friends for drinks and meals, and revamp my messy room, while waiting for the other half to come home after his last New York flight.

Many of times, I find ourselves not always moving in the same direction and not always agreeing on the same answer, and yet I still want to fall for you.

Love is such crazily strange. :)

Anyway, may judgement day, brings good news. =)

Hehehe...

Joyous... :p

for once!

Mr Sia is kind for once! Haha.

I am super bored.

Want to go out gai gai but the weather is torturing. One moment scouting hot sun, one moment raining with thunderstorms.

Want to go out on a proper date, and yet I find no date. Lol...

Should just get a life soon, or rather, make new friends. Hehe..

Okay, time for a little bit of reading and then to bed. Say Hello to another new contract with Mr Sia! :)

872

How time flies!! It has been 5 years! :) May we have many many good flights in time to come, and for those who are staying, may they turn into ninja turtle soon! :p

A grateful thought...

Back from Sydney, with errands to run tomorrow and then off to stay a night in Jakarta on Saturday. And then, the 5th birthday of Batch 872!:) It felt almost like yesterday... How time flies huh?

I should be thankful for where I am now. Having a comfortable job that provides me with the ability to enjoy slightly above average life, see the world like almost every girl's childhood dream, meeting people who fill up the gaps of my life.

Sometimes I find myself searching high and low for the right people to love me and to throw attention to me, and then to realise to a point that I actually don't have to do that. If they love you, they love you. If they care, they care from within. I feel more relieved somehow having this thought running through my mind. Am 27 and still a very long journey ahead. People I am going to meet, a new job perhaps in time to come, the dream guy I am going to marry, having my own house, starting my own family and be grateful for my past for they brought me to who I become. :)

Can't wait for May and June to be over. I am taking a little break in July, and perhaps also a good time to think what's next in life. :)

Love is even when you only have that amount of time together, you still think it's heaven. (=

happy food

When you have nothing to do, you just eat. And eating often makes people like me, really happy. :p

Steamboat hotpot in Hong Kong. I especially love the QQ instant noodle. *slurp*

Ginseng BBQ chicken. Dinner with Ling at this newly open restaurant at Kovan. And the meat came with 2 side dishes of your choice. I chose the seasonal vegetables and olive rice. Hehe..

"Wu Xiang" and sugarcane drink at People Park's Complex Food Centre. Sometimes cheap hawker food like these tastes even better than those big restaurants.!!

I went for massage earlier on. My stiff neck and shoulder are both giving way. I was in pain for good whole 40min. The uncle exerted so much pressure on my back that I almost teared and thought it so gonna break. Now, my back came home with a big patch of blue black. Hope I will feel the result of the massage tomorrow.

In need for some serious running badly. If the back doesn't hurt tomorrow and it doesn't rain, I shall get the movement going. *keep fingers crossed* Am so craving for movies and pop corns too. Let's see who else is around... Hehe...

And I can't help it but to keep replaying this wedding video. This is so awfully sweet. The song that accompanies, is super ultra love. :)

coming home!

Waking up in 3hours time and I still can't get myself to sleep. Shopping in Hong Kong was great. I bought many many pairs of shoes! Haha...

Hong Kong and San Francisco isn't a flight that you can do often. Your waistline will just grow side way and your pockets will just keep burning holes. *laugh*

Heading back to Singapore. Everybody back home is telling me about how hot Singapore is now. Have been away since before the voting day. Really looking forward to coming back, especially when you know you are going to hang out with your favorite people over the weekend. :)

At least, there are people who still have the urge to see me.

Thank you.

I so need that.

=)

the HKG's note.

Hong Kong is blasting crowded with people and vehicles. Had a good whole evening having steamboat, drinking bubble tea, shopping and eating dessert. And yet eager looking forward to return to hotel and talk to him before I sleep. It's like after weeks of struggling with books and notes, I can officially talk to him for MORE than 5 minutes on the phone again. The tiredness that was so understandable, so do I, after moving from one gmt to another gmt all over again. I thought we could end the night on a sweet note.

Then...

I realise I am so far far far far away from perfection. I was proud. I was arrogant. I thought I would be the only girl who understands him. Tonight, I realise I am too over-confident. I thought I was very smart. I thought I know how to make everything works. But I forgot, what I want, may not be what he wants after all.

And I begin to ponder, if our shoulders are really meant for each other to lean on.

Good Night Hong Kong. I am going to sleep now. Waking up for dim sum. :)

One more day and I am coming home... :)

Yoppi

Decided to have Yoppi Frozen Yogurt instead of Cold Stone. It tasted extremely yummy too, with all the toppings I added like lychees, strawberries, raspberries, and mochi. Satisfied! :p

And oh I bought a new pair of running shoes. Can't wait to do more jogging and tone my flabby arms and thighs. Can't wait to go night-run with the boy. :)

Alright, time to nap. Have a really long flight to operate back to Hong Kong later.
Ciao!

SFO

San Francisco is still as beautiful and windy. The Cheesecake Factory, Chinatown and the heavenly shopping streets. Bought tonics, and a couple of shopping loots. I spotted Cold Stone just now and it's just next to the hotel. Not like the one in Singapore which is always so crowded and long queue, I am so going to savour it later. Hehe. Heading back to bed again. My sleeping patten in States is always in intervals. Can't really sleep a full 8 hours. Just painted nails, and mask-ed. Waking up to a nice Sunday morning later. :)

AND...all the best to the upcoming First World Parliament, as promised I suppose. We shall see how our future will change, and how our life gets better, hopefully... =)

<3

Afternoon in HKG

One afternoon in Hong Kong....

Embracing good weather, enjoying probably the best and smoothest soya bean curd that you can ever find, sighting at how freshly baked egg tarts look like just baking hot out from the oven, and of course to end it with the famous dessert store, xiu liu shan. :p

En routing to San Francisco later. Gonna miss the every 5 years big affair of Singapore. To all voters, please vote wisely. *giggle* I will be keeping myself updated with the news and results through the web. :)

我。。。脑袋装了什么啊？

正在反思。

希望这八天会很愉快。

工作会非常顺利。

没有小人。

哈哈哈哈。。。

someone I want to annoy...

What happened when people have to keep turning to your blog to find out answers about your thoughts? But am still glad that I have found someone who apparently reads me, know me almost inside out, my blog's number 1 fan, someone who I can still pour my heart and lungs out even till today, someone whom I want to annoy for the rest of my life.

:)

I am not sure what lies ahead. The road is long and probably may not always be smooth. Thank you for the reassurance that cures my uncertainties. And you are absolutely right, I will blog a bit before I zzzz. Lol.

Till then! Ciao... =)

obligation?

Is it out of own will, good faith or has it unknowingly became an obligation? Oh well...

On another note, I just had one of the not so fantastic check during work. Didn't really feel very justified but hack la...

Life is getting challenging isn't it? Work, love, the environment you are living in. Continue to embrace, belle!

Till I wake up... Good luck to all the students having their stressful exams now. ESP my brother and mr Lau. (:
Please look forward to all the play and fun after the exams. Going to be over soon...:)
Eyes closing.. :p

focus

Hello... I was trying to pack my clothes and stuffs for Hong Kong and San Francisco, to the minimum so that more shopping can fit in. Haha... The friend in SFO was saying it's still cold in the night, but I really can't be bothered. Moreover, we will be in his car. So am pretty hopeful that the trip will be fruitful and happy. :)

Sometimes you just need to find something else for you to focus on rather than narrowing your attention to only those things and people who are deemed to be in your life for the moment. What if things are gone and people leave? You will be left with minimum, but heavy burden of emotions. I should have known better. Been there done that. Would never allow myself to sink into a bottomless hole again. On a random note again. Lol. Just thought, I should be kinder to myself, be a little selfish, and think more to my own benefits. Ha..

And I got new DVD from Shanghai! Heh. Something to dwell on when you are away for 8days and all alone in the room. Hee... Alright, I shall head back to the last bit of packing. Actually there isn't a need for me to pack so early, just cos initially I thought I would have a whole day of agenda on Wednesday to fill my day and night with from the early start of the day. Change of plan, probably good too. Catch up on sleep and reading, and my self-alone time. Perfect... :)

Good night! =)

May

Off to Shanghai tonight. Been almost 2 years since I last visited China. Hope the first day of May starts off right for everyone. It's a decision making month, with the polling day drawing nearer, rallies are held almost everyday now at open fields and stadiums, attracting Singaporeans to hear what plans the potential leaders have for us in the near future. This election seems exciting, but I won't be participating. Will be keeping myself updated through web and media when I am in San Francisco. Hope the pool of people who will be leading our country in the next 5 years will bring us greater qualities of life and improved policies that make Singapore a friendly country to stay in. :)

And to love, though still with occasionally annoying acts (*LAugh*), I am still feeling...

Lucky to have been where I have been.

Totally. :)

Enjoy Labour Day and the holiday tomorrow, for most people. Heh.

Cheers.
