Friday, January 30, 2009

In order to stay away from the war in my house, I decided to go out and enjoy myself! Went out in the afternoon around 3 plus to meet Kevin and same thing happen again that shao ye is LATE! TSK TSK TSK.

Because we have no idea where to go, both of us decided to meet at Vivo and initially I wanted to catch Bride War but I know Kevin is not interested and what he is interested does not attract me. Thus, we give a miss on movie and went to have desert at Thai Express instead! Seriously it cost us a bomb just by ordering 3 deserts and we find it totally not worth it plus not tasty at all. **yucks!

While chatting and thinking where to head off next, I thought of Marina Barrage a place where I wanted to go all along. Finally, I made my way there yesterday where Kevin is willing to accompany me! Haha. So we train down to Marina Bay and took the last shuttle bus to our destination. Seriously, Marina Barrage is a nice place to chill, picnic and fly kites! It is super windy when we reached there and not so crowded too but lots of couples. LOL. Thus is sort of weird when both of us are there, but who cares we still enjoy ourselves by the wind, grassland, clear blue skies, beautiful scenery, water and bird chipping! * I did not exaggerate, that’s how great the place is. Haha. Highly recommend people. (: Kevin and I decided to go back there again someday in the night to see the view where all the lightings are up and of course if possible stars!

Went off an hour later to catch the last shuttle bus back to train station and since the night is still young we travelled down to Esplanade! We caught some performance and had a walk to One Fullerton after that home sweet home!

The Salty Coffee

Wednesday, January 28, 2009

He met her on a party, she was so outstanding, many guys chasing after her,while he was so normal, nobody paid attention to him. At the end of the party, he invited her to have coffee with him, she was surprised, but due to politeness, she promised. They sat in a nice coffee shop, he was too nervous to say anything, she felt uncomfortable, she thought, please, let me back home. Suddenly he asked the waiter: would you please give me some salt? I'd like to put it in my coffee.

Everybody stared at him, so strange! His face turned red, but, still, he put the salt in his coffee and drank it. She asked him curiously: why you have this hobby? He replied: when I was a little boy, I was living near the sea, I like playing in the sea, I could felt the taste of the sea, salty and bite, just like the taste of the salty coffee. Now every time I have the salty coffee, I will think of my childhood, think of my hometown, I miss my hometown so much, I miss my parents who still living there. Saying that, tears filled his eyes. She was deeply touched. That's his true feeling, from the bottom of his heart.

"A man who can tell out his homesick, he must be a man loves home, cares about home, has responsibility of home," she thought. Then she also started to talk, talked about her faraway hometown, her childhood, her family. That was a really nice talk, also a beautiful beginning of their story. They continue to date. She found actually he was a man who meets all her demands: he was tolerance, kind hearted, warm, careful...he was such a good guy but she almost missed him! Thanks to his salty coffee!

Then the story was just like every beautiful love story: the princess married to the prince, then they were living the happy life...And, every time she made coffee for him, she put some salt in the coffee, as she knew that's the way he liked.

After 40 years, he passed away, left her a letter which said: "My dearest, please forgive me, forgive my whole life lie. This was the only lie I said to you, the salty coffee. Remember the first time we dated? I was so nervous at that time, actually I wanted some sugar, but I said salt. It's hard for me to change so I just go ahead. I never thought that could be the start of our communication! I tried to tell you the truth many times in my life, but I was too afraid to do that, as I have promised not to lie to you for anything..Now I'm dying, I afraid of nothing so I tell you the truth: I don't like the salty coffee, what a strange bad taste..but I have the salty coffee for my whole life since I knew you, I never feel sorry for anything I do for you. Having you with me is my biggest happiness for my whole life. If I can live for the second time, I still want to know you and have you as my whole life wife, even though I have to drink the salty coffee again."

Her tears made the letter totally wet. Someday, someone asked her: What's the taste of salty coffee? It's sweet. She replied.

Moral of the story:

LOVE is not to forget but to forgive, not to see but understand, not to hear but to listen, not to let go but hold on!

THE BLACKS & WHITES!

LOVES & MISSES!

End of Year 2

Sunday, January 25, 2009

Friday was the last day of the semester 2 and year 2! Decided to go school although the class is real bored. I don’t want to miss the last chance working with my classmates and having fun with them. (: Surprisingly, most of us wear black or white colour clothing on that day without planning!

Class ended quite early and went off with the usual clique except Joy to have some fun after class.

First stop: Archery at Suntec! I think I’m addicted after the first try. Haha.

Second stop: Dinner at Sakae, Funan IT Mall! Anyway, Kevin, Limin and me we have a hard time searching for Sakae Buffet!! ):

Last stop: Millennia Walk to have a drink!

Reached home at around 1 plus after Hung Ee sent Kevin and Limin home. Overall, had a great time with them and enjoyed myself! (:

Love them loads!!! <3

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!

Quizzes!

Tuesday, January 13, 2009

Haha did some quizzes some days ago after the recommendation from gene said that is quite true. So here is my results:

Out of the three quizzes I tried out, THE CLOTHES YOU WEAR best describe me! LOL.

What others see from your style
You tend to not be very imaginative. You lack self-confidence and are not very particular about what you choose in your life. You give in to others and prefer stability to change.

What your nightclothes reveal
You are friendly and always in good mood. You are candid and helpful, and can be sexy at times too.

What others see from your ties
You are strong-minded and determined. Even though you may appear to be gentle, you are actually a stubborn person who loves to be challenged.

What others see from your belts
You are a kind of person who likes to hide your feelings. You may have a hot temper but tend to cover it with an outwardly calm and gentle demeanor. You are sensitive when it comes to love.

What others see from your shoes
You are a person who loves simplicity and is sincere and open. You are pleasant to be with, easygoing and always in a good mood. You neither want to control nor be under someone else's control. You don't care much about how you look, and know that it's what's inside someone's heart that's important.

What others see from your earrings
You are attractive and unique. Wearing these sorts of earrings indicates that you are a romantic and easygoing person. You like to have people pleasing you, and your personality is bright and cheerful.

The last analysis
You are probably a clever and adventurous person. You love to learn new things, and enjoy socializing with friends. Although you enjoy your freedom, you cherish peacefulness and like to spend time alone with your thoughts.

Have some fun trying out if you want to! :)

During the last week of holiday, I have spent it wisely with my friends and family. :) Met up with bestie they all to celebrate Christmas and had our gift exchange! I got a bottle of wine from Alvin. LOL. Sis, Jon and me three of us finished up the bottle of wine on the last day of year 2008! We decided to stay home and countdown to 2009 and we ordered some pizza and munch it. *Grow FAT and DIE!

Christmas Day (:

The Bottle of Wine!

Oh I also had my class outing on the 30th! Not a lot of them turn up but nevertheless we still had a great time bonding together. We settled ourselves at Billy Bombers for dinner and followed by drinks at Singapore Sling. Dinner + Singapore Sling = Cost a BOMB. Joy and me had to left early and the rest continue their night at Clark Quay..

Went to meet up with Marie and Cheryl @ Garden on last Friday for singing session that we have missed super long! 3 persons sing from 2 to 8pm for only 33 bucks!!! WOOHOO. Cheap isn’t it?! hahah. Then decided to go market and settle our dinner before we move on to the desert house. (:

YUMMY!

Hmm class started yesterday and I am dragging myself away from my comfort zone that I have been enjoying for the past 3 weeks of holiday! Yes I need to adjust my sleeping time or else for the rest of the day I will be suffering badly. Time passes real fast and its 2009! 10 more classes to go and I’ll be away to enjoy my 10 weeks holiday which mean it marks the end of this semester.

Suppose to meet sweetie and sister during the holiday for steamboat but three of us missed our bed too much thus decided to give a miss instead. So we make up the meeting today and had our lunch together during the second break..although is jus a short while but it feel so good that after a year plus we are still keep in contact and the friendship did not fade as we change classes. Loves you!

Sweetie & Sister! (:
