~songs in my head~
没有地球太阳还是会绕.But I don’t care what they say. I’m in love with you. I just wanna fall and lose myself Laughing so hard it hurts like hell Forget about everything and run away, yeah ~ MOTTO ~ :: if you have tried your best, there's no need for regrets. :: ~ THOUGHTS ~ By ourselves we are too weak to hold our own even for a moment. "And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God" (Romans 8:28) For what it's worth, it was worth all the while. "God has given, God has taken, blessed be the name of God" (Job 1:21) "I know what I’m doing. I have it all planned out – plans to take care of you, not abandon you, plans to give you the future you hope for.” (Jeremiah 29:11) Hit Counters |

a little dance in my stomach, a little twist in my mouth i've been into food blogs lately... bookmarking the various sites that recommend good/new restaurants, or simply just sites that are about pretty and delicious-looking food and pastries. Bossacafez is one blog whose owner is really too cool. she's a singaporean who bakes alot, because she loves to. initially i thought that it was probably some american's food blog, as it was the first time i've seen or heard of someone who is so talented and adventurous about baking in our usually mundane country. (and she is probably just doing for leisure) her hubby is damn lucky, because she makes such delicate pastries, from macaroons to rose petal jam to earl grey icecream. on top of that, she puts effort and thought into the photography of her food. this makes someone like me who is not into pastries, drooling over her creations. i really admire what she does, but i know i will never have the patience to do what she does.  her earl grey ice cream. i would so love to try this. photo credits to bossazcafez  the earl grey creme ginger pudding from PS Cafe that i would like to have again. it's one of those desserts that i eat because i like it, and not for the sake of eating desserts. the ginger fragrance and the earl grey creme complements each other in a surprising way, and it is not too je-lat. and for roland who has been complaining that he haven't had enough eggs recently.... photos of delicious brunch!  Eggs Benedict  Scrambled eggs with smoked salmon and sausages  Panckaes with strawberries and maple syrup on the left. not sure what is on the right.  some salmon stuff on the right and toast with scrambled eggs on the left. photo credits to ladyironchef these are from Epicurious cafe at Robertson Quay. maybe we will go there for brunch soon =) does it make you crave for some good breakfast now? ---Somewhere between our laughs, our long talks, our silly little fights, and all our jokes, I fell in love.

Jolin Tsai - 無言以對 Nothing Left to Say it took a while for this song for me to warm up to this new song, 窗外天亮了房裡還是有點黑 love the last paragraph lyrics. Jolin has come a long way since her "我知道你很難過" era 0 wore their hearts on their sleeves Monday, October 18, 2010 9:58 AM
S.H.E - 安靜 In the mtv, Selina has my dream hair! long and flowy, just like jeon ji hyun in My Sassy Girl. Pretty pretty! and that guy who looks like Ruan Jing Tian with goatee is quite funny... I also saw this interesting paragraph about breaking up on the youtube page... probably written by the user: 男人想和女人分手很簡單，只要好好編造一個美麗的理由，把所有的錯誤都推在自己身上，已經足以讓女人受用和相信，不至於對愛情失去信心。 0 wore their hearts on their sleeves Sunday, October 17, 2010 8:56 PM
爱情的美妙 终于看完了“就想赖着你”。。 有一点伤心，舍不得。。 因为，我还蛮喜欢这部偶像剧的。。 ella 和言承旭这个搭配，还真有默契。。 我想，这部戏的 draw 就是让简单的女生，幻想自己有一天，也可能会找到一个 “懂得珍惜我，在乎我的人，不管我有没有钱，不管我漂不漂亮，他都会永远爱我” 的男人。。。 especially one as handsome as 言承旭。。。哈哈哈。。 and ella's portray of 杨果，is really very adorable too. all in all, the show is funny and heartwarming. <3 he proposed to her less than 1 month after they got together.... but its damn fantasy lah, cuz throughout the whole show, he's like damn rich, damn eng, and damn 体贴。。even though he is supposed to be a very busy lawyer.. the last part, they even had kids!! this drama shall join the ranks of my all-time favourite dramas which include 王子变青蛙。。 that was funny, eventful, and so full of 經典台詞 just like what caddie wrote on her blog... my favourite line was "单均昊不是神，他也是人，是一个平凡的人， 他的心也希望能够感受真爱，留住真爱， 他也会战战兢兢的站在一个喜欢的女孩子面前， 希望她能够爱他。 茼篙就在单均昊的心裏，你怎麼能把茼篙叫醒，又不理他呢。" it was said with alot of expression and emotions by ming dao! i am so going to watch this drama again!! 我想，恋爱因该是世界上最好的感觉吧。。。 恋爱是一种，甜在嘴里，暖在心里的感觉。。。 而我，也很幸运的，能找到我自己的哪个“懂得珍惜我，在乎我的人”。。。 这种感觉，我希望，永远都能保留。。。 ---Somewhere between our laughs, our long talks, our silly little fights, and all our jokes, I fell in love.

习惯两个人 -歌词- 像重感冒 爱情出现了忽冷忽热的挣扎 才刚坐下有说有笑 一眨眼有微笑是正常 晚上一样花好几天的冷战把情绪交换 我坐立不安 怎麼比分手还难 你是我的肩膀 我的信仰 是我的温暖 有时候我在想留在你身旁是爱你 还是爱上陪伴 习惯两个人不见不散 习惯一睁眼就寻找对方 习惯让我们懒散 不再坚强 对寂寞丧失抵抗 习惯两个人睡单人床 才能沉睡到天亮 如果你离开了 我束手无策怎麼办 总是习惯 若无其事的 继续为爱而繁忙究竟是装宽容大方 还是呢忍受房间空旷 我们总说时间到了就该懂得好聚好散 我坐立不安 陷入爱的拉锯战 你是我的肩膀 我的信仰 是我的温暖 有时候我在想留在你身旁是爱你 还是爱上陪伴 习惯了圆满怎能又 重新习惯空出的另一半 但愿我爱上的不是爱上你的习惯 Love this song from 言承旭 =) hehe, it is such a soulful song and meaningful lyrics.  it's been like a couple of weeks since i chanced upon the colorful xiao long baos and i still would like to try! just looks so cute - the myriad of colors. it is not just the outer skin that is colored, the fillings are special too... there's ginseng, foe gras, szechuan, chocolate, etc etc! shall drag/pull/ask roland to go soon :D ---Somewhere between our laughs, our long talks, our silly little fights, and all our jokes, I fell in love.

random I'm officially obsessed with lipstick + lip gloss Flipping through magazines Every shade appealed to me Hot pink, baby pink, nude, fuschia, red... Etc Probably only pantone colors can aptly describe the various shades haha.. MAC, shishedo, chanel, Revlon... Darling can I use your capitaland vouchers - put them to good use??? :p Sigh... Miss him lots. No sunday talk today cuz he's in KL for colleague's wedding Saturdays are always so perfect and lazy Hehe... Looking forward to the next week =) i feel like we've been tog for longer than just over 3 months.. (well, that is technically true, cuz i can't think of any other guy friend whom i can say knows more about me in the last 5 years than him, or any guy who can say they know me better than roland does - this fact is irreplaceable, it's like first mover advantage haha..) in a way, friendship is the solid foundation on which this relationship is based on... we "saved" lots of time because trust, respect and understanding was already formed as friends... and suddenly, i quite miss the bintan trip... hanging out with csbs on the beach and just tuang-ing.. csbs is a very valued group of friends to me, and no doubt it is also because of the existence of this group in my uni days, that helped me gained this wonderful relationship today :) i hope next yr perhaps we can go for such a trip together again dont mind going back bintan, or batam, or bangkok.. the next time, hopefully shu wan and shu hui will be able to join us too! looking at the photos from the trip that's 5 months ago.. i realised that the phuket photos are not uploaded yet! shujing and roland.. the two lazy people... hence my phuket post never came... hahah, because no photos! Life is funny, because we never can quite anticipate its changes. ---Somewhere between our laughs, our long talks, our silly little fights, and all our jokes, I fell in love.

all my favourite things Havent had the time to update... Just came back 2 days ago from a short business trip to Penang. it was pretty city-like and unlike what I imagined... dark wobbly roads and unsafe, like JB our clients took us out for hawker food and Teochew lunch... the food was delicious! It was also my first time staying in a hotel on my own... I supposed that my company's welfare is not too bad.. as everyone had their own room.. initially the idea was abit scary since afterall sleeping alone in a hotel room is not the most comfortable thing but the privacy was shiok!! there was no need to share room with my boss and wait for each other to bath... and i could just laze on the bed and watch whatever channels i wanted.. Overall the trip was alright, just that it was unnerving and stressful because there were so many things to prepare... Life has been good these days... Although my mood fluctuates up and down, but there's someone who is always tolerating my nonsense and comforting me when i am feeling moody :) it is really amazing how comfortable we are with each other... despite being friends for so long, and never thinking we could be more... Last saturday, i finally made the reservation for the little spanish restaurant and off we went, to Bukit Timah Road... took some wrong turns on the road, and we seemed to be on the CTE for the longest time until we finally reached there.. can't help it, we are both east-ies! haha.. and then there was the parking issue... couldnt find where to park amidst all the rich housing! and then after parking, finally found the restaurant underneath the shophouse.. it was quite worth to keep this little secret because it turned out to be a cosy corner... and we tried their paella (this pan of seafood and rice - like a spanish version of our claypot rice), and some tapas... their lychee rose tea was thumbs up! will find the time to upload the photos of our little 3 months celebration + be-be-belated birthday treat for roland. we also almost "died" when mr high-astigmatism changed lane at a bend, and the car was like moving straight ahead into the bend... and then i shouted "darling!" and he shifted the steering wheel... haha... so i decided that i should help drive the long distances at night before he gets his new specs... :P Tonight Im meeting wenxin for her birthday celebration. how fast time flies.... it seemed just not too long ago that i brought her to bishan park last yr... and presented to her the casio watch... i hope she will like this year's present too... We're going to Procacci, this italian restaurant newly opened at Customs House. Am into looking out for and compiling a list of good-to-go restaurants for birthdays and anniversaries, so if you know any, please share! Now moving on to ramble about my favourite things Chanel logo earrings! isnt this lovely?!! i was trying to decide whether i would save up $600 for this earrings or a pair of Christian Louboutins (from net-a-porter)  6t92wdMBMkO254omg~~_1.jpg) initially my answer was the shoes of course... but i will probably wear the earrings more often? though i will be devastated if i lose one side of it.. which does happen to my earrings from time to time :( but any scratch marks on $600 heels will be an ouch too! however i am not so sure whether the chanel earrings have already been phased out in the boutiques.. Im also madly in love with Chanel make-up! i guess if i cant have chanel bag, or chanel earrings... the next best affordable replacement is their make-up! =) bought a couple of Chanel stuff while i was at the airport..  Vanessa Paradis, the beautiful french actress (aka Johnny Depp's long-time gf), is fronting the current Chanel Rouge Coco campaign... in my opinion, she's the perfect choice, because she embodies the Parisan chic look/style that i admire.. she's kind of like the modern audrey hepburn, very classy and elegant. i got the Rouge Allure Extrait de Gloss in shade 57 Insolence (which means bold and impudent)... the famous hot pink shade that's appearing on the back covers of magazines like CLEO..   It is the shade on the right.. fell in love instantly with the glossy pink shade. it is actually very wearable, and not that exaggerated. the red looks really sexy too!! lip colors can change the overall look instantly. im looking to get the shade Insouciance (which means indifference).. even the names of the products are so irresistable. and of course the sleek black and gold packaging is very attractive to me as well. i also got the waterproof twist-up eyeliner (it's good and longlasting!)and Chanel N°5 hair mist.. i am not a fan of all the chanel fragrances, some are quite overpowering but i want to get them because i want to collect the classic bottles and packaging! hehe... i am now collecting small perfume bottles... those 5 or 10ml ones.. really cute to display, and to bring along for short trips or touch up too.. next perfume will probably be from the Chanel Coco Mademoiselle range.. that campaign was fronted by Keira Knightly.. in the ad she was totally nude with only a strategically placed bowler hat on her digitally enhanced chest. although she is lovely, but i dont get the nudity (why!) nudity and chanel, does not go together, imo... if there is really a need, perhaps someone more curvy like Marion Cotillard will be a better choice.  i love almost everything on this model.. the dark nails.. the perfectly arched brows, the gorgeous dark hair, and that very perfect pink shade on her lips!  Yum... Chanel's new nail color range is also very irresistable, but i am not that crazy to spend $23 on one bottle of nail polish that i have to apply myself.. (there should be some nail salons that carry Chanel or other brands of nail polishes rather than just OPI) this jade shade is very gorgeous too.  This green is from OPI... more minty than jade..  However, my October color is likely to be a fresh light shade... Browsed through the internet and these 2 shades attracted me..  It's sheer luck.. and Tickle my france-y  But we will see... i need a fresh coat of toe paint to satisy myself!! a girl really has soooo many thousand ways to groom herself... hence, 世界没有丑女人，只有懒女人。。。 ---Somewhere between our laughs, our long talks, our silly little fights, and all our jokes, I fell in love.
