It's always sunshine after the rain.

I feel good! dadadadadadaDA.
yesterday i went to Bugis with Ganma and family!
and it was our first time visiting the National Library (NLB)
So gu right? - _ -"
Ohmy, the library was veryyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy
BIG with at least 6 levels!
but we only stayed at Level One cos we were afraid of heights..
haha jkjk, think we were a tad too lazy?
:x
Library is one of the favourite places i love to visit!


There's also this special Sunshine Bakery located nearby,
that sells tasty bread and pastries and...
it even has a seating area for us to sit, which makes it special!
In the midst of enjoying a cup of aromatic coffee and appetizing foodies,
you can read a book.. have a small chit-chat.. spend some time with your family or friends~
which was what i literally did. yay!
it's a humble place and the ambience is rather serene and warm.
Though it isn't those atas atas kind of place,
i think that simplicity can be a luxury too. :)


The air now is really fresh and balmy because the rain just ceased..
*breathes in greedily*
it's always sunshine after the rain.

Touched.

For the whole day, i didn't touch the lappy for my Sissy brought it out.
Instead, i was touched by Her little actions just now..


Today, i went out with Granny for the very first time
ever since i dont know when?
(sighhh. sounds pathetic i know..)
She was all set to go while i was still preparing,
and she told me,


"慈啊, 我先下去等你 hor!"


i wondered why she didn't wait for me.
Not until i found out that it was
due to her weak legs, she'd walk really painstakingly and slowly.
Often, she will stop for a while then walk..
stop for a while then walk again.
i can't believe she went down about half an hour earlier,
just because she was afraid to let me wait for her to finish the distance
from our house to a bus stop near our house.
Each step was a burden to her. And she didn't want to burden me.
:(


On our way back,
as i was anxiously trying to help my Granny..
Clumsy me tripped over the trolly with 20kg of rice in it.
The impact was really great and it was so painful that i almost cried.
Then i suddenly remember the taxi driver say,
“你的孙女很乖。”
Somehow, i forgot all about the pain le! wahahha.

Booo.. now i got a baluku on my right leg :(
but it's worth it anyway! haha.



p.s. i promise to make a cup of hot chocolate for her, every night before she sleeps!

*CHEERIOS*
Meet-The-Jason Day,
Success!

♥ 小夫妻 ♥
Maybe two is better than one.

Angie told me something about the expanding of the table!
i really look forward to seeing the 另一半 of
Maxie, Guolian, YY, Zhiwei, Felicia, Zirui in future!!
then probably i can paint a love-ly portrait for you all titled,
'Ohanies with their Hunnies' le! :D
How nice will that bee? Bzzz~




Ohyes, Maxie & Marlyn (M&M) were such obliging and generous hosts.
Thanks Ohanies, and Jason our new addition.
Also, before i forget, i wanna thank Zhiwei
for creating the ticklish kite-flying video, which brought much joy to us lA!
And i wanna thank Angie for putting so much effort in the Sunway Lagoon trip
though it couldn't be actualised in the end..
i appreciate it.

Gosh, I am feeling so happy.
Maybe because of the wonderful friends i have?
:)

My Sister's Keeper -

YAHOO!
Blonde me finally understood the movie's title.
As to why the word 'Keeper' was used.. hehe.
Serene, thought-provoking, tear-jerking movie.
Superb acting skills by Cameron Diaz!

i suppose very often,
we overlook the sheer fortune of just being alive.
(Perhaps you think not, but you are already here on Earth mah! Haha.)
Sometimes, we lament over the earthly lives we lead
and get troubled about how things should be, how things could be..
Maybe we should begin to notice
and treasure the things that already are!
That'll be nice.

All right, let's just go back to basics..
I think that we're already very lucky people,
blessed with a healthy, disease-free and able body.
We are spared from the clutches of the hospital,
painful injections, awful medication.

We are not bald and have abundance of hair on our heads,
(Sigh, especially for my case. like Momo monster!)
We can go to the beach or have a picnic out in the greens whenever we want to,
Also importantly, our family members and friends are all sound and well.

Aren't we fortunate?
If yes, let's start counting our blessings today..
One by one.

* * *

YY said Ohanies tend to behave like little kiddos :D
Us together, can really be a beautiful disaster mannn.
We ah.. laugh our loudest, smile our widest,
play like children, when we're with one another!
i like.

Because he felt that those people around our age don't seem to be like us?
In comparison, they seem to be like very mature..
Serious? Dull?
dont like.

During lunch, although the table was a little squeezy and small,
i felt delighted for we finally ate on a round table for the very first time.
it just feels like a family to me! heheh.
i like.

On the way to Guolian's homey,
Luckily we didnt bang into CHABA or CHAMA ah..
hahahha!
We shouldn't overlook the beauty of Mother Nature too.
:P

p.s. Thanks for sharing with me, lian!

24 October 2009, Saturday.

It certainly was a happening day for me!!
Elainey and Joy @ the Soup Spoon in the afternoon.
Yum! We lapped down the tasty soup happily and had a really long chat.. :)
Then was Churchy with Felfel, Zhiwei and Maxie.
I must say it was really an eye-opener
And we met some peeps: Rachel, Yuzhen and Maggie.
They're rather amiable people!

And that evening,
A one-hundred-year-old secret was revealed... :X

It was girls' night out today! And i felt happy. Very very.
Thats why i cracked my brain (Yay i have one)
and thought of this nickname for us because i really felt it!
wahahha.. pardon me for the change in names ah.
but it suits us much~ :D

Bakerzin, Blueberry CheeseCake, Photo-taking@Garden.
Zhiwei and her PEACH. Huishan with her XiaoGuang.. :X
lOL~
Ohya.. Zhiwei, Shan and i have formed
The Spinster Club.
ahahha. i wanna be President!!
Who wanna join? Free admission leh ;D

When i saw the picture of Isaac and BeeHwee together..
They looked so very sweet.
i actually experienced the same kind of happiness i felt for Angie.
Its a magical feeling!!



Lets hope that their love will be just like the blueberry cheesecake -
甜而不腻 ♥ 甜甜蜜蜜。Yummy!!


p.s. i want dimples!!! (o'-'o) Even if there's only one...

Life's simple pleasures.
Sounds familiar? Of course laa :D
its MR. BEAN.

Had 幸福 on a cone, alone and without you!
I guess i will be having it alone in future le..
Sounds so saddening, but its fine.
一个人也没什么不好的.
:)

You must be feeling blissfully sweeto with your 幸福 ba.
Happy TWO Monthsary to the both of you~

Somehow, i begin to love talking to granny.
And i realise she's aged.. by alot.
She is much thinner than before, and her hair turned all snowy white,
the deepening wrinkles on her countenance.
Her stamina has also declined as the years go by..
Worse of all, she's prone to falls which i am really afraid of.
:(

Me in the past, will never help her buy any groceries for fear of looking like an auntie.
But now, im starting to love shopping at the supermarket by myself.
(Just like Lian~)
Carrying those NTUC aka Auntie-You-See plastic bags
isnt a nightmare for me anymore!

Maybe because of my granny?

Me in the past, will never want to set my hands on others' legs, ( :X )
But tonight's the first time i've massaged her aching legs.
Wah. She even praised me for helping her to ease the pain a little..!
I know im a noob lo.. hahha.

Dont know why, this random thought just floated to me.
不想等到失去后才珍惜..
And I'm beginning to understand that,
Action do speak louder than words.


“妈妈脸上的每一条皱纹都是美丽的。"

Here's a picture of her smiling~

p.s. i think i have a pretty granny! :P

The Thirty Second Quiz Author Unknown
	Don't bother getting a pen and paper... just read. If you can't answer them, just keep going. 1. Name the five wealthiest people in the world. 2. Name the last five presidents of Singapore. 3. Name the last five winners of the Miss Singapore contest. 4. Name ten people who have won the Nobel or Pulitzer prize. 5. Name the last five Star Awards winners for Best Actor and Actress. How did you do? The point is, none of us remembers the headliners of yesterday. These are no second-rate achievers. They're the best in their fields. But the applause dies. Awards tarnish. Achievements are forgotten. Accolades and certificates are buried with their owners. Now here's another quiz. See how you do on this one: 1. Name three teachers who aided your journey through school. 2. Name three friends who helped you through a difficult time. 3. Name five people who have taught you something worth while. 4. Think of a few people who have made you feel appreciated and special. 5. Think of five people you enjoy spending time with. Easier? The lesson? The people who make a difference in your life aren't the ones with the most money, the most good looking, the most intelligent. But, they're the ones who care. http://www.inspirationpeak.com/cgi-bin/stories.cgi?record=93 Credits to the site above and edited by yours truly to fit local context. :)

:'O

Ohmy. Dont we just love going the extra mile - _ -

as we tried locating Shaw Towers..
Walking to and fro~ fun mah, pure blonde??

Sometimes, the truth can be really ugly.
we were rather tickled by the show
and i bet bet bet that Max Lim will LOVE it.. sooo many kinky jokes lo. =p
The lead actor expressed his love in a really eye-opening way.
Furiously he said, "I've fallen in love with a psycho like you!"
lolll.. Just imagine that.
No wonder Abby, the lead actress only caught the word 'Psycho' and got so mad.

Shouldnt he say those words with love? Made me understand that..
Its not what you say, but how you say it that matters.

ooh. i do enjoy those dumb and mindless teasings, (like always?)
those insightful conversations about our daily lives, future.. dreams and such! :)

thats what i call true communication ba! not just superficial words of exchange~
sometimes i feel that its good to have individual dates.
you can possibly get to see another facet of your friend~~
or hear some thoughts or views usually left unsaid due to unseen circumstances :P
somehow it'll increase the proximity between you and your friend de! hahaha.

"The key to finding love, is to not look for it."
A Love Happens movie date set with Angie and Jason!
Or probably (500) Days of Summer like what Angie suggested?

Oh oh. Before i forget..
We ended the night at Swensens.

That Banana Crumble tasted especially sweet. Aww..
♥
i wish we Ohanies can all sit in that hot air balloon!
take me away, a secret place
a sweet escape, take me away
to better days~
Yipppee..

"How do they get down from the hot air balloon ah?"

*pauses*

"Hmmm.. i think... Deflate lor..!"

HAHAHHAAH~ So blonde but cute.



p.s.

BBF ah. Sometimes you're actually better than what you think you are.
You dont even believe it yourself, but its true!
Know that and magnify those strengths of yours and have more confidence,
be it now.. in future, or in life..!

29 Oct 2009, Tuesday.

Was the day Ying Peng left for UK..
I felt a jerk of tear when i saw Tsu Hui and YP
hugging each other with their watery eyes.. bidding goodbye.
true friendship, it is.


then over to Maxie's where Zhiwei and i had a h.t.h chat.. :)
Friendship, Love, Ohana, Religion were some i can remember.
We also watched some rather touching videos...
And we shared our thoughts on manymany things! Just the two of us.


amazingly, we chatted for hours if im not mistaken.
this is when you can freely share your feelings
with somebody endeared to you.
and tada, you get to understand one another at a deeper level..
i'd like a friendship that runs as deep as an ocean =)
and not as shallow as a little lake.








p.s. ♥ h.t.h. talks!
i realised... its been a long time since i hugged someone.
When was yours?


Last but not least.. HAPPY CHILDRENS' DAY!!
booo.. i've got no present :(
