Unusual Sat

On normal Sat, I would be rotting @ home.
Hide away from crowds over the weekend; recharge @ home.
Yesterday I did something different though.
Went out w Meimei.
Supposed to go blading w Meimei & Pucca.
But poor Pucca was under the weather.
So Meimei & I decided to go shopping & movie instead.
We ate @ Long John Silver before the show - Flightplan.
Always like Jodie Foster.

After movie, I suggested we go Ichiban Boshi @ Esplanade for dinner.
Since Meimei Japanese name is Chawamushi, U can imagine her eyes widen when I said let go Ichiban Boshi for chawamushi.

As usual, she'd 2 serving of it :)
And as usual, I'd a small bottle of hot sake.
After a satisfying dinner, we went to The V Tea Room for of couse Tea.
We also tried their famous Bailey's cake.
Hmm...so relaxing.
The deco of the cafe is very English.
Red wall, gold frame mirror, antique design chair with nice china tea set.

I know Pucca & Momo would like this cafe very much too.
Will bring them there soon :)

BakerzInn

Sneaked out of office @ 5.10pm.
PuccA suddenly have craving for strawberry short cake from BakerzInn. So we went Paragon.
My 1st time dining there. Usually only go there for coffee.
In the end (as usual) we'd more than we plan for.
We shared a Linguni Vongore & curry chicken.
Coupe Cheesecake for dessert & latte/ice tea as drinks.
We chatted almost about everything from BKK trip to maomao's character & his bad attitude to spooky real life encounter.

We departed near Tangs where Pucca went to shop I head towards Borders. Led a woman with her daughter & mom to Borders too :)
Then while crossing the road after browsing some mag, met cookie. Surprise surprise, she's going to meet Pucca, haha.

Famous Blogger

Just read the blog of one of the most famous blogger in S'pore (hint: handicap toilet saga)
Gosh, not the kind of blog I find it enriching.
Thank God there are so many other nice bloggers around which I can learn from.

Of course there's freedom of speech here in blog (except passing unfair remark that hurt the harmony of our country) but find it quite turn-off.

Digi Cam Part 2

Laoshu: I'm alittle angry w u (over the phone)
Dami: Y?
Laoshu: Last night about digi cam. Think u abit selfish
Dami: I dun understand y must u get 1, u can borrow from yr sibilings or friends
Laoshu: Borrow everytime I 1 2 use it is v troublesome
Dami: What u 1 2 take? What so nice to take? I really dun understand
Laoshu: Everyday's stuff lor
Dami: Dun b 'bo liao' lah
Laoshu: Everytime u 1 2 buy something, did I ever stop u?
Dami: What I bought u can use too what!! We dun need 2 digi cam @ hm!!

-- The End--

I'm still unhappy....
I'm still angry....
I earn my money, I take care of the family n I cant buy a stupid camera as I wish!!
What is this?!

Digi Cam

Thought of getting myself a digital camera.
When I was much younger I took alot of pix using conventional camera.
I used to be the one with camera for all the gathering.
But I gradually stopped as the no. of pix grow & also the cost for developing those photos.

Happened to be at Harvey Norman last night after dinner @ Marche.
Went in to take a look at the 2 brand I was eyeing on.
Couldnt decide which is better, I summoned Dami over to help & give advise.

He reluctantly came over (partly due to his stiff neck; he wasnt in his best mood, partly he was checking out on the plasma tv which he has been eyeing for the longest time).

Laoshu: what do u think of this? (holding on to Canon i zoom)
Dami: why u 1 2 buy this? I already got a Canon, why dun u consider another brand?
Laoshu: what about this then? (pointing to Panasonic Lumix 5 mega)
Dami: u 1 2 buy now meh?
Laoshu: not now lah, maybe sometime during xmas as a gift for myself
Dami: u buy digi cam for what? u only use for gatherings or occasion; unlike me, I bought it bcos I need it for working, once in a while u need it I can lead it to u what.
Laoshu: ......................

I was pissed. I think Dami is being selfish.
I seldom stop him from getting whatever he wanted; unless it's really way out.
But on the other hand, he always make me feel like I'm spending unnecessary.
I don't have to ask for his permission on my spending, but I rather have his blessing.
I'm sick of sharing w him what I aim to get w/o him giving me a dress-down!

Harvest Thoughts

i believe our actions reflect our thoughts
i also believe we can harvest our thoughts
when u harvest merry thoughts, kind thoughts
you sow the seeds of love & happiness or even peace

someone said:
Heartbreaks last as long as you want
Cut as deep as you allow them to go

this is also thought process right?

BKK

Finally went BKK on 28.10.2005 (Fri)
Unfortunately I wasnt as excited as I was in HK.
Guess mainly due to the culture difference & the weather.

When I went to HK in Feb this year, the weather was chilly.
I guess I'm the sort who love to travel during cooler weather.
Singapore is already so hot throughout the year, need to visit cold country.

Most of the stuff in BKK belong to the casual type.
Only the shoe & bags are really cheap.
The rest of the stuff are more or less the same price here.

The only thing I enjoyed most was visiting Moon Bar - 62th on Banyan Tree, Open air - Wow!
The night scene was spectacular but I felt wobbly.
Maybe because of the pressure of the height in open air!
Goodness. On one hand I wanted very much to stand next to the railing to absorb the view, on the other I'm so afraid I might just fallen out. Dilemma is the word at that time. Looking @ the rest of the guests around me; they seems to be more relaxed than I do. What a shame!

Blog Friend

11 day more to my blog friend Ms Little Snooze wedding.
Cant recall what I was doing on the 11th day before wedding.
Probably having mixed feelings.
1 hand looking forward to start new life w the man of my life.
The other cant bear to leave my parents whom I have lived w for 26 years.
And also the laughter in our house.

6 years today, I'm happy.
I'm sure my blog friend would be the same if not happier :)

Dream

I have been having weird dreams lately.
I don't why.
It's not a nightmare; it's not a sweet dream either.
It's a dream that reflecting my innermost thoughts.
Why are they coming into my dream?
Isn't it suppose to be hidden somewhere in my memory bank?
I don't like to have dream like this.
It make me wonder am I missing something in life?
It make me feel out of control.
