God didn't promise days without pain, laughter without sorrow, sun without rain, but He did promise strength for the day, comfort for the tears, and light for the way. And ME to share all the pain, laughter, tears, sorrow,happiness, sun and rain with you! Let us endure all the 暴风雨 and 彩虹 together!

Why are you trying to push me away?
you know that I hate it,

Why are you trying to send me to other?
You push me away like a little

Saying that this is for my own good
Saying that you are just not worth it
Please, stop it right now coz'
you know me enough that i will come back to you no matter what!

I want nobody, nobody but you
I want nobody, nobody but you

Can't have anyone but you
I want nobody nobody nobody nobody

I want nobody, nobody but you
I want nobody, nobody but you
I want no one else but you
Can't have anyone but you

All the pushing won't change my feelings
I am happy to have you,
more than willing to please you
i'm begging you please
don't walk away from me
Coz' i can't be happy away
from your side

Saying that this is for my own good
Saying that you are just not worth it
Please, stop it right now coz'
you know me enough that i will come back to you no matter what!

I want nobody, nobody but you
I want nobody, nobody but you
I want no one else but you

I want nobody, nobody but you
I want nobody, nobody but you
I want no one else but you

Life is unperfect without seeing you
I cannot have anyone but you... ahhh

I want nobody, nobody but you

I want no one else but you
Can't have anyone but you
I want nobody nobody nobody nobody

I want nobody, nobody but you

Rap:
BacK to the days when we were
so young and wild and free
Everything we had back then
was like a dream
If only i could turn back time
Why do you keep on pushing me away?
why do you push me away?
I don't want nobody, nobody,
nobody. nobody but you



H1N1 Version


I dowan you to touch me baby
You go toilet nair wash hand right?

When you wash your body, wash your hands too
When you wash your body, wash your hands too
You don’t want get swine flu
Or someone pass to you
You better wash your body your body your body

H1N1 is confirm no fun
Be careful where you go, US or Mexico
If you have temperature that mean you got fever
Don’t just take honey, this flu is not farny

Maybe it’s time to wear a mask
Maybe you have forgotten SARS
Whatever the weather, must bring ther-mo meter
Stick it in your armpit or down there!

When you wash your body, wash your hands too
When you wash your body, wash your hands too
Though the level is yellow
Don’t be dirty fellow
You better wash your body your body your body

When you wash your body, wash your hands too
When you wash your body, wash your hands too
Must wash after poo poo
Or germs will stick to you
Wash more than your body your body your body

I know you use finger, don’t let the smell linger
I know you dig gold, and wipe on some pole
You scratch your backside, and think you can hide
You play your below, take ice from my Milo

Maybe it’s time to be hygiene
Maybe you should be quarantined
Don’t be a spreader, we stay clean together
We’ll pick the kutus from each other’s hair!

When you wash your body, wash your hands too
When you wash your body, wash your hands too
If you think you’re infected
Don’t blur block go Orchard
Don’t pass to somebody somebody somebody

When you wash your body, wash your hands too
When you wash your body, wash your hands too
Must wash after pang jio
The Wonder Girls damn chio
They dowan your body your body your body

Back in the days when we only took a bath monthly now
Looking at you I feel, as sick Kim Jong Ill
Your breath smell like kimchi, you see
There’s no vaccine eugene
Go wash your body
Your body your body, wash your hands too



Feeling Weird

I remembered Alvin was telling me that he felt weird to be in his room after he came back from his 3 weeks sailing last year.

Few days ago, I finally got back my room. After 1 plus year. It really feels weird to be in the room after 1 plus year, to call it my own. I don't know. Even today, I still have not sleep in the room. Maybe wait till I paint the room and get some stuff ready. On top of that, it is stuffy to sleep in the room in these humid weather these few weeks.

IS THIS MY ROOM?

Sundown Marathon 2009 - Actual Night

Yesterday, went for my first night run. It was at 8.30pm. As the timing was near dinner time, I skip dinner altogether. Luckily I had late lunch/brunch at around 2pm and drink a little Tom Yam Soup with few spoonful of rice at 5.30pm. Got myself prepared, bathed and "dress" in my running attire:

Preparing my attire
(Now thinking of it, this looks like preparing for wedding horr? lolx....)

In front of the mirror

Closed-up

Before I went out, the sky looked dark and started to drizzle. My dad was asking if I'm still going to run as it was going to rain. I told him I'm not sure too as the run was at Changi and at a later time. I got my stuff ready and went downstairs "mama shop" to get a bottle of energy drink to hydrate myself before the run as I don't usually drink water if you know me. lolx. But as I was going past my block again to the bus stop where I was going to take bus 15, I realised I didn't bring my ezlink card. Went up and down again.

I walked over to the bus stop few blocks away to take bus 15 to pasir ris. I waited quite long for the bus, for almost 20 minutes I think. While waiting, thought of someone and messaged him. Apparently he was in m'sia. Anyway, went to take the chather bus when I reached Pasir Ris MRT. And the journey was approximately 20 minutes. When we arrived at Changi Point, we saw lots of people and from the announcement, we were 5 mins away from our race. Thus we hurried to the starting point and put on our running tag and the race tag.

Before the race, how can we not take some photos? =D

Me, Juat and Yeng Yeng

ME!

Me again

I was running quite fine for my first 4km, overtaking people whenever possible. Until the turn at 5km, I started slowing down. I was so happy when I reached the water point. To my dismay, the water point only turned out to provide us with plain water when it thought I saw 100 plus. Well, I still took it as I needed help to clear my throat. Felt having mucus and phlegm in my nose and throat. Damn irritating.

I was just persevering throught the last 4 km. Seriously, it is mind over body. I could feel that my knees are breaking. Just running at my own pace. When I saw 9km mark, I was very happy. Wanted to speed up, but I guess my knees were not helping. Thus, I decided to make a decision to stop. I would say this decision is hard to make. As a person who has Ego problem, stopping just means that I CMI, or rather it has always been a goal that I set for myself not to stop even how tired I am. But yesterday, I did stop. But after each stop, I propel myself forward. Maybe that is what people meant by:

“休息就是为了走更远的路。”

I arrived at the finishing line at about 1hr 25mins gun time. Most probably I took 1 hr 22-23 mins actual time. Juat was saying this is quite good timing for people who didn't train... lolx.. Got my finishing medal, a can of 100 plus and a bottle of mineral water.

And..... it's time for more photos!!!!

Thirsty after the race

Again

Us! I love this photo! It will be great if it is clearer.

The finishing end for 84km ultra marathon.
This is madness but I applaud those who ran.

Me with medal

Posing again

Not again? lolx

Me and Juat

Once more

Finally me and Yeng Yeng

Adidas Sundown Marathon

Balancing Adidas ball on my head?

Trying to carry the ball?

Time to sit down

All of us
(The guy who help us to take this, really CMI. He took like 5-6 shoots using
my phone and Yeng Yeng phone but none turn out well)

ME in the chartered bus back to Pasir Ris

My cheeks looked pinky

There is no more last train to Boon Lay. Thus, I cannot go back to Tampines although it is just 1 stop away. Luckily Juat has a friend who came to pick up up. Thus, I hitch a ride back home. Dropped off at the coffee shop just next to my block. When I dropped off, all the "old man" drinking at the coffee shop all turned and looked at me. WTH. I hate stares. Anyway, I went to buy 2 cans of H2O from the coffee shop. Really thirsty. All the "old man" are watching the FA Cup Final of Chelsea vs Everton.

Just realised that I didn't take a close up photo of my medal. But I really love my medal. It looks so nice!!!


That's all folks! It's already 2.40pm now!!!! Time for lunch! lolx.... =D

Lose of memory for 10-15 seconds

Life can be scary losing your memories. For some 10-15 seconds last week, I was starring at my client and wanted to call out to him but no names seemed to come out from my mouth. I know I know his name. I just called him like just 1 minutes ago.

I was like 3m away, wanted to call him but I couldn't. I walked to him..... and tried to get his name out. It was only after that 10-15 seconds, that his name - xxxxx, came out of my mouth.

I heaved a sign of relief. Maybe there is some "disconnection" of my neurons in my brain or they decided to "play truant" for few seconds. But the thought of not remembering people when deep down you know you know them can be very scary. Signs of aging I guess.

For a moment, I felt how a dementia person felt. If the little boy could speak, most probably he would come and tell me, "I am xxxxx."

Sundown Marathon 2009

Going for Sundown Marathon in less than 24 hrs time. In another 20.5 hours to be exact. Didn't manage to sign up for the marathon this year. Then am I still running?

Of course. My friend's friend is unable to run due to some back injury. Thus I am running under her name. Anyway, I doesn't really matters. I just want to RUN! First time running at night. I think it can be quite nice running at night.

Anyway, Yeng Yeng/Juat collected and passed me the goodie bag for the run last monday. It wasn't fantastic at all! But I kinda like the ADIDAS shirt..... and it is PURPLE in colour at the sides! Yeng Yeng exchanged the size with me and she took L and gave me her M. Thanks gal... *muack* lolx.... As I was so excited to see if I can wear the M shirt..... I tried it out in office!!!


And that is the goodies bag........

Hopefully I don't DIE or FAINT from respiratory problem. Been having endless mucus production. Haha.... so if you don't hear from me here, you know what has happened. =X

Anyway thanks Alvin for the suggestion to clean the oil stain on my handphone camera len with alcohol when I asked him for solutions. It is now much clearer! =D



Panda Me with HELLO PANDA

Dark eye Ring with Pink Cheeks

I didn't drink..... my colleagues applied something on my face! =D

That's all.... gonna sleep already. Good nite.

Meaning quotes

Saw the following in a PPT slides from a friend. Found rather meaningful. But they are in Chinese. Take few moments to read them.

活著一天,就是有福氣,就該珍惜。當我哭泣我沒有鞋子穿的時候,我發現有人卻沒有腳。

寧可自己去原諒別人,莫讓別人來原諒你。

世界原本就不是屬於你,因此你用不著拋棄,要拋棄的是一切的執著。 萬物皆為我所用,但非我所屬。

別人可以違背因果,別人可以害我們,打我們,譭謗我們。可是我們不能因此而憎恨別人,為什麼?我們一定要保有一顆完整的本性和一顆清淨的心。

你有你的生命觀,我有我的生命觀,我不干涉你。只要我能,我就感化你。如果不能,那我就認命。

如果你準備結婚的話,告訴你一句非常重要的哲學名言「你一定要忍耐包容對方的缺點,世界上沒有絕對幸福圓滿的婚姻,幸福只是來自於無限的容忍與互相尊重。

我的財富並不是因為我擁有很多 ,而是我要求的很少。

不是某人使我煩惱,而是我拿某人的言行來煩惱自己。

活在別人的掌聲中,是禁不起考驗的人。

如果你能每天呐喊二十一遍「我用不著為這一點小事而煩惱」,你會發現,你心裏有一種不可思議的力量,試試看,很管用的。

若能一切隨他去,便是世間自在人感謝上蒼我所擁有的,感謝上蒼我所沒有的。

愚癡的人,一直想要別人瞭解他。 有智慧的人,卻努力的瞭解自己。

其實愛美的人,只是與自己談戀愛罷了

狂妄的人有救,自卑的人沒有救。

對於不可改變的事實,除了認命以外,沒有更好的辦法了。

說一句謊話,要編造十句謊話來彌補,何苦呢?

當你用煩惱心來面對事物時,你會覺得一切都是業障,世界也會變得醜陋可恨。

你什麼時候放下,什麼時候就沒有煩惱。

根本不必回頭去看咒駡你的人是誰?如果有一條瘋狗咬你一口,難道你也要趴下去反咬他一口嗎?

人之所以痛苦,在於追求錯誤的東西。

與其說是別人讓你痛苦,不如說是自己的修養不夠。

命運負責洗牌,但是玩牌的是我們自己!

過錯是暫時的遺憾,而錯過則是永遠的遺憾!

Afternoon out with Hui Hui

This afternoon, met Huihui for lunch at Tampines 1. We had our lunch at around 4pm because the Bus service no. 3 that Huihui took a long time from Punggol to Tampines.

We had lunch at Manpuku. The concept is fairly similar to Marche, just that all the food are Japanese Gourmet. =D

We ordered a few dishes. Apparently the food is not as nice as we thought it will be.

Hui Hui's Fried Prawn Set

Our Moonlight Special

MY SPICY MISO RAMEN!!!

Our Berry Tart

Hmm.... other than the moonlight special and berry tart, I think the rest of the dishes are just so-so only. So.... I don't think I will really recommend, unless you try other dishes. The total bill come up to $44.08.

Next, we went to UNIQLO and I tried on the Bra Top sleeves shirt again. And gotten another confirmation from Hui Hui, I decided to get this yellow bra top:


I've tried on the purple one.... but apparently not as nice...


The other one that I tried was this blue one with some design on it. But apparently, between the blue and the yellow, we both think that the yellow looks better. And since I bought quite a few tops during the addias sale, I think I am just going to get 1 more.

Anyway, the blue one that I've tried on:


HAha.... think I got to lose some belly fat la.... lolx....

Anyway, we walked for a while before Huihui has to go home for dinner. I walked her to take 168 from the near-by bus stop and decided to take a walk at Tampines Mall and Century Square since I don't feel like going home. Kinda feeling down... ...

And since my Addias-looked-a-like shoes has spoilt, I decided to go the DMK to look for shoes. Just less than half an hour, I got myself 2 pairs of shoes:

Open toe, slip in

Side view, showing the little heels

Covered toes, flat shoes

Haha... the design very "Xiu Ling" hor? Wanted to try other design... but don't like. So I'm back to my old design. Haha.... If I like one thing, I can like very long one lor.... =D

I guess Retail Therapy does help. Never tried before when I was a poor student back them. Now having a bit of spending power, it does help myself in getting what I want without having much consideration like before. Anyway, these 2 shoes doesn't cost much - $44.80. =D

On my way home, bought June issue of Her World magazine.


P.S: Anyway, last week I also bought a bikini from Tampines 1 too.

Updates on work and studies

I have 2 good updates for my work and studies.

This is a late update anyway. I gotten back my 6000 words group assignment. Apparently it was not too bad. Not too sure if it was an A grade or not. Anyway, it was 73.5 marks out of a hundred. Now for this module, we are only left with a presentation which was postponed due to the H1N1. This presentation is 15% of the whole module. Hopefully I score well in this coming presentation. If I really do, that means that most probably I will score above 70 for this module. Pray hard for me.

In another module, I am way behind in the online discussion. Practically no motivation to go in and discuss. Sigh. Maybe things will get better when my group suppose the lead in the discussion? This discussion constitute 20% of the whole module plus an 80% paired assignment. Supposed to have an examination for this module. Don't know why it was scrap off.

As for work, of course I am seeing more clients. Getting few more referrals here and there. And there is some adjustment to my salary! Yeah.... and that includes this year annual increment. This should be given way long ago..... our salary is so wAY below others in other settings.

So far these are good news in my work and studies.

As for other area in my life.... sigh.... it is just not moving forward.

Other point of views.... makes me reflect

Sometimes I think when we are too engrossed in our own thought processes, we tends to forget what other people may think and feel.

In a conversation with a colleague, she was just chatting that some of her friends will message her and ask her "How are you?", "How's your day?" and maybe "Let's hang out.". She said she does like/love her friends but sometimes it is the same old thing. Sometimes, it is hard to explain even if she doesn't feel good or doesn't wants to go out. So, sometimes she will not want to explain, because she just don't know how. And sometimes, she just want to stay at home and rest, having time for herself.

This makes me think. How sometimes I will message people who are important to me and ask them how is their day. And their reply is usually "normal". I know sometimes it can be very irritating for them. Perhaps there might be other way to express my care and concern. Maybe I should just cut down on that.

Life goes on.....

對不起我愛你

Nice Songs by Fish Leong.....

對不起我愛你 - Fish Leong 梁靜茹


没别的只想说对不起
对不起我真的爱你
不管你会怎么想你怎么说
也不会改变我的决定
你知道有时候感情事很难说
很难说爱人或朋友
从前到现在我真的感觉要
一想你我的心就发烧
想给你听我的心跳
想你知道我睡的不好
喝水想着你
搭车想着你
合眼闭眼间出现的全是你
我猜不到你的表情
我等不到你的回应
不想难为你
又不想放弃你
决定告诉你
对不起对不起我爱你


没别的只想说对不起
怎么样我都会珍惜
不管你会怎么讲
你怎么做
也不会影响我的心情
你知道有时候男孩更难捉摸
难捉摸爱人或朋友
现在到永远我真会感觉要
一想你我的心就狂跳
我的模样记不记得牢
情人卡有没有收到
读书想着你
听歌想着你
大地和蓝天
出现的全是你
我才不管你的表情
我才不理你回不回应
不想难为你
又不想放弃你
决定告诉你
对不起对不起我爱你


你听一听我的心跳
你看一看我睡的不好
喝水想着你
搭车想着你
合眼闭眼间出现的全是你
我猜不到你的表情
我等不到你的回应
不想难为你
又不想放弃你
决定告诉你
对不起对不起我爱你

My Lovely G900 is discharged from ICU

In continuation to this post, my love was discharged from the ICU. Indeed, he has an organ failure aka hardware failure - display TFT. Oh, the battery was faulty too. In addition, they upgraded my software too!

I'm so happy that my LOVE is back and to see my LOVE again! Now charging it. Waiting to restore all my contacts and probably some of my past SMSes too.... =D

But I probably be much more happier to SEE my OTHER LOVE too..... Will I? Definitely, maybe?
CONFIRM! *bleh*

Want to win Canon Ixus100 IS?


Vote for me here! Photo number 397.


Thank you!!! =D

Sent my LOVE to ICU

This evening, I had painfully sent my SE G900 to Simei ICU. Hopefully the staff at the ICU can find a cure for my LOVE.

Few days prior to the admission, I've tried all ways and means to cure him but to no avail. But thank god I managed to find a software to backup all my past SMSes. I've tried 1 software before this good one. But the challenge was that I have to be prepared that I have to repeat the backup many times as my phone will just restart on its own, which I did. Thank god I have the patience because of the preciousness of the messages to me. I was trying to backup the massages on Sunday till almost 2am. In case you are interested, the software can be found here. Other than patience, the other challenge is that I am taking a risk to use this software. This software was not optimal for my G900, nor it has been tested with my G900. But as my belief always goes,

"If you never try, you will never know."

But I am very glad that I gave it a try. At least with my SMSes backup, I have no issues/regret in resetting my phone. Thus, I did a master reset on Monday during lunch. It doesn't help at all. I thought it might be something wrong with my battery. Wanted to borrow from my colleagues but none of their SE battery is the same as mine. One colleague who also had problem with his phone recently said his phone has similar problem and was alright after some update by the staffs. Thus, I came back home and downloaded the updates for my SE G900. It seems alright at first but the problem came back again. Then I began to wonder if it got to do with some "organ failure"... Opps.... I meant hardware failure. lolx....

Not sure if it was fate, my aerobics class was cancel again. And I took this opportunity to bring it for servicing since it is still under warranty.

I pray and hope that my LOVE can be back before the weekends.... so that I can bring him out and enjoy! Before I left, they handed me some of my LOVE's belongings:


Currently I am just using a lousy non-camera LG phone that was given to me free when I bought my Acer Laptop last year.

P.S: Had craving for spicy food.... had Tom Yam Soup and Rice with Curry gravy when I was at East Point. Back at home, dad bought curry chicken... and I took some too.... I just so LOVE SPICY FOOD la.... =D

Oh... and I went to pet safari to look at the animals. It always bring me peace and joy when I see them. They just brighten up my evening.... how am I going to survive without my love for the next few days? Just so not used to it..... =( Anyway, I used to go to Pet Safari during my secondary school days. It was much bigger then.

Long Overdued Post!

This post is about Nozomu's trip to Singapore on 6th - 8th March 2009. H2O hosted Nozomu(from Japan) when he was in Singapore for exchange as an Occupational Student back in 2006. That day he was back in Singapore again. He was already here on the 5th but he went to Bangkok for a day/night. Apparently, his flight to BKK was delayed and he only went BKK for dinner. =X


6th Match 2009

Anyway, H2O and me met up with Nuzomu on 6th March, Friday, after our work. We decided to bring him to eat the famous crabs @ Ang Mo Kio. On the way there, I realized that the route is very familiar. And I discovered the reason when I saw the right turn to another street/avenue. Someone stays just few minutes away. Coincidently, someone was away in KL, if not might have ask him to join. But I guess even if he was around, I don't think he will join, for he doesn't eat crabs and he doesn't really like social gatherings. (Correct me if I'm wrong.) ^_^

Anyway, these are the photos at the eating place... ... most photos are courtesy from H2O's camera:


Creamy Butter Crab

Claypot Mee Hoon Crab


Spring Onion Frog Legs

All the dishes

ALL FOR ME!!!!
(LOLX)

Let me show you how to eat frog legs.....



And CRAB:
Sorry... I don't mean crab shell.... lolx...

FOOD COLLAGE!

And how does the place looks like?



After that, we decided to go for a drink. We do not know where to go - Holland Village, Clarke Quay or Boat Quay. So what we did was, we shall board the 1st bus that goes to any of the places mentioned above. Realized that 166 can go to alot of places. =) I didn't board 166 bTW.

We were walking around Holland V and ended up at Harry's... ...

Nozomu posing

And me???

Messaging someone lah.....
who was at KL Zouk... =X


Cheers!!!

We all went back after that. I gave a lift for Nozomu to his backpacker hostel, before I headed back in the cab.

7th March 2009

They went to Little India the next morning, while I only joined them in the evening. This PIGGY gal needs her sleep in the morning la... lolx....

Anyway, we went to Thai Express for some drinks after I meet up with H2O, Nozomu and H2O's friend.

We also took some UGLY and PRETTY photos: (Please bear with me... lolx...)




There is no ugly photos of the pretty friend. As the name suggest, she is pretty. So the ugly photo still looks quite pretty. lolx...


8th March 2009

Since this is the last day that he is here, he wanted to meet up with our Sensei - Mr Lim Hua Beng. So we had a dinner at Serangoon Garden. Together with 2 japanese gals who were in SG for their attachments. How can we forget to order some local food for them:

Zui Kwey

Satays

Oyster Egg

Dumplings

Nozomu with the FOOD!

After dinner, HB bring us to demsey hill area to "pop" some wine/champaign for our "guests".

Before Nozomu took a ride from H2O 's friend to the airport, he took a photo with HB sensei.....

LOLx.... That marks the end of his trip in SG.... =D

Thanks for bearing with me for such a loooooooooonnnnnng post!
