Looking at things from different perspective

This is what my colleague and I call looking at things from different persepective....




















If I have never step back and take a look at this object at different views.... I may just get a few ideas.... but when I try to look at different angles.....

I am able to see it in different perspectives.

Isn't it the same in life? =)

We clinched a SILVER!!!

Well, China is a strong team to be started with..... and it has been so long since we last had a medal.... so we shouldn't complain much.

Thanks.

And..... heard that the China player Zhang YiNing.... adopted a panda in china!!!! That's so cool.... maybe I should go and adopt a penguin huh? lolx

I want to adopt this lonely penguin in Singapore Zoo.....


Such a lonely penguin......

Wedding Songs

Wedding songs played during Mabel's and James Wedding.....

  1. From this moment on
  2. I finally found someone
  3. Through the years
  4. When you say nothing at all

The music videos.....

From this moment on


(I do swear that I'll always be there. I'd give anything
and everything and I will always care. Through weakness
and strength, happiness and sorrow, for better, for worse,
I will love you with every beat of my heart.)

From this moment life has begun
From this moment you are the one
Right beside you is where I belong
From this moment on

From this moment I have been blessed
I live only for your happiness
And for your love I'd give my last breath
From this moment on

I give my hand to you with all my heart
Can't wait to live my life with you, can't wait to start
You and I will never be apart
My dreams came true because of you

From this moment as long as I live
I will love you, I promise you this
There is nothing I wouldn't give
From this moment on

You're the reason I believe in love
And you're the answer to my prayers from up above
All we need is just the two of us
My dreams came true because of you

From this moment as long as I live
I will love you, I promise you this
There is nothing I wouldn't give
From this moment
I will love you as long as I live
From this moment on

I Finally Found Someone


I finally found someone, that knocks me off my feet
I finally found the one, that makes me feel complete
It started over coffee, we started out as friends
It's funny how from simple things,
the best things begin
This time it's different,
It's all because of you,
It's better than it's ever been
'Cause we can talk it through
Oohh, my favorite line was "Can I call you sometime?"
It's all you had to say to take my breath away

CHORUS:
This is it, oh, I finally found someone
Someone to share my life
I finally found the one, to be with every night
'Cause whatever I do, it's just got to be you
My life has just begun
I finally found someone,
I finally found someone,
Did I keep you waiting? - I didn't mind
I apologize - baby, that's fine
I would wait forever
just to know you were mine
You know, I love your hair
- are you sure it looks right?
I love what you wear - isn't it too tight?
You're exceptional,
I can't wait for the rest of my life

CHORUS
Whatever I do, it's just got to be you
My life has just begun
I finally found someone
(lyrics courtesy of lyrics007)

*********************************************

Through the years


I can't remember when you weren't there
When I didn't care for anyone but you
I swear we've been through everything there is
Can't imagine anything we've missed
Can't imagine anything the two of us can't do

Through the years
You've never let me down
You turned my life around
The sweetest days I've found
I've found with you
Through the years
I've never been afraid
I've loved the life we've made
And I'm so glad I've stayed
Right here with you
Through the years

I can't remember what I used to do
Who I trusted whom, I listened to before
I swear you've taught me everything I know
Can't imagine needing someone so
But through the years it seems to me
I need you more and more

Through the years
Through all the good and bad
I knew how much we had
I've always been so glad
To be with you
Through the years
It's better everyday
You've kissed my tears away
As long as it's okay
I'll stay with you
Through the years


Through the years
When everything went wrong
Together we were strong
I know that I belonged
Right here with you
Through the years
I never had a doubt
We'd always work things out
I've learned what love's about
By loving you
Through the years

Through the years
You've never let me down
You've turned my life around
The sweetest days I've found
I've found with you
Through the years
It's better everyday
You've kissed my tears away
As long as it's okay
I'll stay with you
Through the years
(lyrics courtesy of lyrics007)

*********************************************

When you say nothing at all


It's amazing
How you can speak
Right to my heart
Without saying a word,
You can light up the dark
Try as I may
I could never explain
What I hear when
You don't say a thing

[CHORUS:]
The smile on your face
Lets me know
That you need me
There's a truth
In your eyes
Saying you'll never leave me
The touch of your hand says
You'll catch me
Whenever I fall
You say it best
When you say
Nothing at all

All day long
I can hear people
Talking out loud
But when you hold me near
You drown out the crowd
(The crowd)
Try as they may
They could never define
What's been said
Between your
Heart and mine

[Repeat chorus twice]

(You say it best
When you say
Nothing at all
You say it best
When you say
Nothing at all)

The smile on your face
The truth in your eyes
The touch of your hand
Let's me know
That you need me

[Repeat chorus]

(You say it best
When you say
Nothing at all
You say it best
When you say
Nothing at all)

The smile on your face
The truth in your eyes
The touch of your hand
Let's me know
That you need me

(You say it best
When you say
Nothing at all
You say it best
When you say
Nothing at all)

*********************************************

While I was findin the above... I saw this nice one.....

I Love you just the way you are


Don't go changing, to try and please me
You never let me down before
Don't imagine you're too familiar
And I don't see you anymore
I wouldn't leave you in times of trouble
We never could have come this far
I took the good times, I'll take the bad times
I'll take you just the way you are

Don't go trying some new fashion
Don't change the color of your hair
You always have my unspoken passion
Although I might not seem to care

I don't want clever conversation
I never want to work that hard
I just want someone that I can talk to
I want you just the way you are.

I need to know that you will always be
The same old someone that I knew
What will it take 'till you believe in me
The way that I believe in you.

I said I love you, and that's forever
And this I promise from the heart
I could not love you any better
I love you just the way you are.

I just LOVE all the songs here.......

Mabel's Wedding Dinner

Last night was Mabel's wedding dinner. Managed to hitch a ride from Johan, together with Mingguang and Weizhen. It has been so long since I last saw Weizhen, my ASSISTANT CLASSREP. lolx....

As this is my first time attending wedding of someone my age... (oh... in fact.... she is younger than me by a year.... does it makes me feels old? I dunno.... ) I didn't know who much Ang Pao $ I should give.... as in what is the market rate.... lolx... then sms SY Alvin to ask him....

Well...... when we reached the hotel, we were quite early... we just hang around.... having drinks and peanuts.... chatting..... We even gave a video well wishes to Mabel and James....

So who went for Mabel's wedding?
Lay Lan, Sabrina, Guirong, Jac Dean, Wen Jun, Zheng Rong, Mingguang, Wei Zhen, Johan and me. oh.... not forgetting Mr Goh and his daughter Jade Goh.

Hmm..... her wedding was interesting......

It didn't start off with us standing up..... the couple came in.....we applaud..... nno.....

Instead..... they came in Mabel came in and sing a song, then followed by James..... who sang a duet with Mabel. It is so sweet isn't it?

And do you all know why her wedding is on 16 August 2008? Because.... in numerical value... it is 16082008.... or for short, it is 1688...... it symbolises abduance of fortune and luck in anything they do.

And Mabel gave a wonderful speech to all present. James, on the other hand, gave a short speech... but he didn't thank the bride. You know why? Cause he came up with a special item where he enter by 1 of the door and sang a song for her. And when he was singing the song.... moving towards Mabel.... he teared! This shows that he is really very happy to have her as his wife!

I am not envy of her..... Maybe I am.... but I am more happy for her that she has found her ONE. All the best to you Mabel and May you have a Blissful marriage! Cannot remember how many kids that you wanted to have when we were talking about it when we were in JC... was it also like me... at least 2 and most 3? haha.... anyway..... jiayou! =D

Okay... now back to the dinner.... the food was good.... or rather, the companion. It has been a long long time since the class gathered. It was a good time to renew all our contacts.... some of them still have my old HP number.... no wonder they cannot get me... lolx.....

Hmmm.... the gals has started working... together with Jac Dean.... and the rest of the guys are still studying..... they called themselves "boys".... lolx... And glad to know that some of the working ppl... are working in big company or organisations.....

Didn't take a lot of photos that day..... waiting for Wenjun to send me the photos that he took with his EXPENSIVE SLR which he asked us not to ask him the cost. lolx....

Anyway, this is some pictures of last night....


Me and Sabrina


Sabrina, Gui Rong and me in the toilet



2nd entry by the couple



Complimentary chocolates from the hotel



Gift from the couple


These are some photos taken by Mingguang......


The gals....



Mr Goh and Jade Seah Goh



Me with Red Wine and smsing....

I think this is my 2nd glass. The guys are all ganging up to "cheers" with me!!! Wah liew.... so many years liao still want to bully the CLASS REP?!?!?! But I still drink la... lolx....
Luckily only 2 glasses..... Someone says FAT GIRL needs to drink more RED WINE..... what the.....

For those who knows me.... know I don't really drink de.... And this is the 1st time I ever drink 2 glasses at one time lor....

Cause.... I don't really like to drink.... as sometimes.... after I drink.... my chest will gets quite tight.... and I will have shortness of breathe....

Well..... after that.... managed to hitch a ride back home.....from Johan.... haha... who can only drink orange juice for the whole dinner. =P


How can I not take photo when I'm at home? haha.... this is how my dress looks likee...... wore the jacket over at dinner because the dress it's a low back dress and I don't have backless strap bra.... so.... I can only put jacket over....

Anyway.... this are the pictures.... taken using my laptop webcam...




--- 2nd Picture Removed---


And this is how the dress looks like.... ...

There was this black dress that looks so nice when I tried it.... I LOVE that very much... but it was too BIG for me.... it was M size..... So what does that mean.... it mean.... I not THAT FAT lor..... And I am not FAT.... just BIG SIZE..... *bleh*


Oh... just remembered that I forget to include something in the previous post. Added an Addendum in the previous entry. Do take a look.

Inspiriational thoughts from the marriage of Mr and Mrs Yang


" Let us not love with words or speech, but with actions and in truth. "

-- 1 John 3:18

Today has been a great and inspiring experience for me. First, it was the first time I am attending a church wedding.

Secondly, the speech of the priest (later found out that he is an assistant priest... but it doesn't matter) was quite inspiring.

I guess the priest has made the occasion more lively with his jokes and he kept on asking the photographers to take front shoots of the couple... lolx...

Some of the things that the priest mentioned:

" 5 years into the marriage..... the couple will say.... aiya... we already married for 5 years already.... I know everything about him/her. But we fails to understand that our thoughts, feelings, interests, etc changes daily with each experience we have. Thus we need to communicate to each other to let known. Do not build up a wall because of anger and prevent each other from communicating with each other."

I totally agree with the above. No matter how well we know about each other.... we will not know everything about each other. It will be for us to explore and find out more more each other very day.

Just to share some inspiring stuff from the wedding booklet that I took back.....

Quote from "First Reading - A Reading from the letter of St Paul to Romans (12:1-2,9-13)
"... Love must be completely sincere. Hate what is evil, hold on to what is good. Love one another warmly and be eager to show respect for one another."

Quote from "Second Reading - A Reading from the letter of St Paul to Colossians (3:12-17)

" ... So then, you must clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience. Be tolerant with one another whenever any of you has a complaint against someone else. You must forigvie one another just as the Lord has forgiven you. And to all these quality, add love, which binds all things together in perfect unity."

Some funny comments that the priest said:

"Do you know that Adam was very jealous of all men? It was because...... he doesn't have an in-laws!"

"A man came up to me and said, ' I was very happy in my 1st year of marriage. When I went home, my dog will bark..... and my wife will bring my slippers to me. Now, 5 years into the marriage, I am not very happy. Because, now when I goes home, my dog brings me my slippers and my wife will bark!"

Addendum: The priest also mentioned that we should not forget to tell each other what we like about each other and we love each other as sometimes we just need affirmations from each other. I totally agree with it.

So much for the morning. And to end off, I will present to you, Mrs Yang and Me!



More photos to be uploaded tonight after the dinner.

No words can describe... ...

2 shocks in a day... ...

Luckily I don't have heart problems.... if not... I will most probably have 2 heart attacks in a day.

Learn to treasure only when you have lost it... ...

Sometimes... we only learn to treassure some things/ someone only when we have lost them.





I'm sorry that I have neglect you for the past few months....





I almost lost you.





Though I cannot give you 10 promises.... I promise you I will take care of you till the end of my life.




This is the story......

I was at work.... then received 2 missed call from mom and 1 sms from brother. He said that mom didn't close the gate and girl girl ran out.

I was sad.... panick.... nothing can be used to describe my feelings.... Thanks to those who responded to my smses.... SY and H2O.

Thanks for being there. =)

So.... I had no clients after I received the message, I decided to go home and search for her and returned to work after lunch. My colleagues even wanted to group together to have a search party for my girl girl. Thanks all!

Guess where I found my girl girl? She was at the lift at the void deck, as if she was waiting for the lift to go back home like how I used to bring her out. But I guess the timing was just right.

I guess GOD (just a symbol.... cause I'm not a firm believer of any religion) has planned for me to find her at the lift. Why I say so?

Cause I was walking home with this boy (one of my client) and his mum.... as they were going to the MAC near my place.... so I walked with him with their pace.... imagine if I didn't walk with them?

I might not find my girl girl back..... =p One of the aunties even wanted to bring her home if they didn't see me. =(

Anyway, I saw 2 aunties at the lift just now. They were commenting on my girl girl... that she is tired... she is hungry.... she has ticks( obviously I know... cause I am putting medication on her... and all those are dead.)...

Well.... I don't wish to be defensive or to argue with them.... I just smile and remain quiet... no point talking to them about it.

Anyway, I am glad you are back..... I am going to give you a good bath tonight! =)

Happiness

What is Happiness?

Ask the boy who won in the paralympics.

Ask the lady who won in the olympics by 0.01s.

Ask the parents whose child calls them "mama" or "papa" for the first time.

Ask the parents whose child with autism gave them the 1st eye contact or first "bye bye"

Ask the gal who fell in love for the 1st time.

Ask the dog (I dunno how... but...) who saw the owner back home from work.

Ask the child who sat in the plane for the 1st time.

Ask ... ...

ASK YOURSELF.

What is Happiness to you?

" Happiness is not how much you have but what you have. "

Personality Test

I did a new personality test. It says I am a sensitive soul. This is based on the movies I would watch. Quite accurate I would say. SY... maybe you would like to take it too.... since you are such a movie lover.... =p

Chasing Cars and Keep holding on

My colleague was telling me that I might like this song - Chasing Cars by Snow Patrol.....

After listening to it.... I heard it before... but never go and find the title.... I like it!



Chasing Cars by Snow Patrol



We'll do it all
Everything
On our own

We don't need
Anything
Or anyone

If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?

I don't quite know
How to say
How I feel

Those three words
I said too much
They're not enough

If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?

Forget what we're told
Before we get too old
Show me a garden that's bursting into life

Let's waste time
Chasing cars
Around our heads

I need your grace
To remind me
To find my own

If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?

Forget what we're told
Before we get too old
Show me a garden that's bursting into life

All that I am
All that I ever was
Is here in your perfect eyes, they're all I can see

I don't know where
Confused about how as well
Just know that these things will never change for us at all

If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?


Then when I was looking through the song.... I came cross this song.... Keep holding on by Avril Lavigne. Below is the song with the movie clip in "50 1st dates"..... one of my favourite movie!

Keep holding on -Avril Lavigne



You're not alone
Together we stand
I'll be by your side, you know I'll take your hand
When it gets cold
And it feels like the end
There's no place to go
You know I won't give in
No I won't give in

Keep holding on
'Cause you know we'll make it through, we'll make it through
Just stay strong
'Cause you know I'm here for you, I'm here for you
There's nothing you could say
Nothing you could do
There's no other way when it comes to the truth
So keep holding on
'Cause you know we'll make it through, we'll make it through

So far away
I wish you were here
Before it's too late, this could all disappear
Before the doors close
And it comes to an end
With you by my side I will fight and defend,
I'll fight and defend
Yeah, yeah!

Keep holding on
'Cause you know we'll make it through, we'll make it through
Just stay strong
'Cause you know I'm here for you, I'm here for you
There's nothing you could say
Nothing you could do
There's no other way when it comes to the truth
So keep holding on
'Cause you know we'll make it through, we'll make it through

Hear me when I say, when I say I believe
Nothing's gonna change, nothing's gonna change destiny
Whatever's meant to be will work out perfectly
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!

La da da da
La da da da
La da da da da da da da da

Keep holding on
'Cause you know we'll make it through, we'll make it through
Just stay strong
'Cause you know I'm here for you, I'm here for you
There's nothing you could say
Nothing you could do
There's no other way when it comes to the truth
So keep holding on
'Cause you know we'll make it through, we'll make it through

Keep holding on...
Keep holding on

There's nothing you could say
Nothing you could do
There's no other way when it comes to the truth
So keep holding on
'Cause you know we'll make it through, we'll make it through
