ARVEN!!!


Smile at the slightest happy thought,
Frown at the smallest setback,
Many things to achieve in life,
Too afraid to fail and to try
So time always takes the blame.

Wilful and joyous it may seem,
Scars and haunting memories it has always been.
Remembering every detail of events in life that was harmed,
Totally oblivious of the good things that happened or to come.

FOOD FOOD FOOD

It had been a long time since i went shopping for my own groceries to cook my own meals! Suddenly i had a craving for chicken and fish fillet so i dropped by the supermarket after my gym at the country club to shop! I was actually intending to buy just 1 or 2 chicken breasts for dinner but on the shelf there were left with 6 chicken breasts and fillet so i decided to buy it all up.. there was this guy behind me whom i think wanted to buy chicken breast too but i only can say that he is so unlucky to be queuing behind me! The fish fillets also caught my eye and i bought a few to have a nice variation of dishes in my meals.. and not to forget the yummy black pepper sauce to marinate them!
I think in about 2 to 3 days everything will be finished up if i eat it for all my 4-6 meals a day! I'll just pop by the supermarket again on Tuesday to stock up my food~

Blessed Wedding

What a wonderful and joyous wedding i attended just now, it was the wedding of my beloved aunt! My sister and cousins booked a hotel room at Conrad cause we did not want to be too close to the bride's hotel room which was at Ritz Carlton, we went there early in the day to relax and chill and shop abit before my sister's hairstylist came and did the makeover for the females while the guys just watched tv and relax till 5pm where we all had to get ready and gather at the Ritz Carlton to witness the Solemnization of Matrimony.

It was to be an extremely grand wedding because the groom himself is a well renowned doctor in Singapore and all his associates and friends were either doctors or are very well to do upper class people. So we had to all wear suits and the dinner was fine dining and after every dish there were extravagent perfomances from families and friends such as singing, live band performances, ball room dancing, turkish dances, couples dancing the waltz the night away on the dance floor and the list goes on...They even had imported wine and the speaker also gave a short speech of why the imported year 2005 wine is said to be one of the best wines in the world, well i didn't really care because i was more interested in the FOOD! Initially it was planned that children was not able to attend the wedding dinner because it was fine dining and it will not be a good sight to see the children running around, but after much discussion and my aunt insist that our side the kids must come because we are all 1 very big and close family. The children behaved at their best and everything was picture perfect!



Swimming pool view from our hotel room

Hotel Room toilet! Guess what i found given to us?

They gave a CONRAD RUBBER DUCKY to play with while lying down bathing in the bathtub!

My sister volunteered to iron our shirts and coats yet she gave the "unhappy forced to do work" face

My sister trying to act artistic after having her makeover done..FAILED!!

I just had to take a picture of me with the beautiful toilet in Ritz Carlton!


Even the toilet at Ritz Carlton was so beautiful you would not mind eating in there! Lol

Getting ready for the guests to come!

Everybody gathering for the cocktail before the dinner starts

Even the plates were GOLD!

Me with my brother in law!

When the wedding dinner was over.. CHILL OUT TIME AT THE BAR!!

I love this, when the speaker talked about their names and surname, my aunt's initials are S.M and her husband's surname is Lee, when they get together they form a very powerful couple because the speaker said Lee is a very power surname in Singapore because of our former Senior Minister now Minister Mentor, and people regarded him last time as S.M Lee. So when now my aunt's surname is Lee, together they combined to be S.M Lee, it was kinda lame but i find it quite original to have thought that up!

My Epitome Of Happiness


Found this picture from my sister's laptop, taken at her wedding dinner! I was kinda tired by then because i had to wake up at 4am to prepare all the stuff needed as i was in charged of the video for the entire day from the church wedding in the morning to the wedding dinner.

This Saturday will be another joyous occasion as another of my family member is getting married and it will be kinda super grand at the Ritz Carlton with imported wine and ball room dancers hired to perform specially for the wedded couple because it is their favourite! Can't wait for the good food!

I actually decided to wear back that same outfit with a different V-neck tee inside but i was told that the requirement for all males for the wedding must be Shirt and Tie! so i guess i have to go with the morning outfit that i wore for my sister's church wedding! So it means i need to go shop for a new shirt, but no more RAOUL! After buying 2 of their shirts i find that their materials are not really that fantastic and the pricing is a little bit over rated.. Oh well.. that's called branding! I'll just find a nice and not so expensive shirt from maybe Zara which is much cheaper i guess

I Need Help

I find that Valentine's day has lost its true meaning and it has became to commercialized for sellers trying to earn an extra buck on the day itself. Does anyone know the true meaning? Just a day to celebrate because it's called for? Or to celebrate that love does really exists no matter what happens?
Oh well, i have not celebrated a single Valentine's Day before and nobody believed me haha, so i have no right to comment on anything about that special day which is TODAY!

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Anyway, yesterday was a normal day for me.. was on my way to Jurong and i walked pass the basketball court as usual and suddenly i saw the people running away and i realised there was an extremely big swarm of angry bees circulating the basketball court. I headed to the busstop and it started to rain and the bees made their way towards the busstop too. At first i thought it was raining heavily and then i realised as i looked closer, it was actually all the bees hovering around the road. People tried to board the busses quickly while the rest walked away from the scene in fear of being stung by the angry bunch.

Been having an extremely bad cough recently because for the past week i've been heading down to pubs almost everyday till 6-7am to celebrate with my friends the Chinese New Year, one of the days after pubbing till 7am i went home and i decided not to sleep and i went for a morning run for 2 hours and then gym. After the gym we headed down to Boat Quay once again to chill and sing, the next day i fell sick and the doctor concluded i was suffering from over exhaustion and dehydration and i still went running despite the flu and cough i was lucky to be alive and not collapsed dead on the spot.

Now everynight i would be awaken in the early mornings like 3-5am disturbed by my coughing, looks like the medication is not helping much and i tried popping a pill or two of sleeping pills to try to force myself to sleep on despite of the coughing. Can't really do any sports for now because of this and on Monday i tried playing basketball and after 3 games i suddenly felt short of breathing and i had to sit down n rest. Guess it is time to stop all these and start resting more till i recover first before my friends keep nagging at me everyday to stop this and stop that!

Oh Well, Andrea called me to go to her house for a mahjong session with Jonathon and Bee on Friday, we decided to buy some good food which Andrea says her house area are the best! We'll just wait and see if its up to my taste buds expectations! Lol.. and i have a feeling the 3 of them will gang up againts me and cash me out! I'm all prepared to over turn the table and run away the minute i lose! and i shall just bring the remaining of my China currency from my previous trip and gamble it away.. if they win it they have to go to the money changer to change back to Singapore currency themselves! Andrea and Bee you better be reading this! Don't complain on Friday!!
