Maison Ikkoku 相聚一刻

I just happen to surf on anime and saw maison ikkoku, i like this anime/comic a lot. watch this when i was small. another lomantic one would be "Orange Road", siblings with supernatural power. hahaa... In the 80s, they usually screen it at midnight. The author of maison ikkoku is also the writer of ranma1/2... i really miss all these tastefully simple anime... How much have i changed in these years? when i was young watching all these favourite anime 对我而言是幸福的。人长大了，这种简单不知道丢哪了？

所以啦，其实幸福很简单。。。也让我快点找到那份简单。。。

eat nasi lemak at changi hospital

Woke up really early on Sunday to attend ah hao's wedding at Ah yat, opposite Jurong Bird Park, was hoping to see some exotic birds there hehe. :) Ah hao and patrick finally got married, and the pastor also shared with us a short meaning note on how to maintain marriage. For me, for most vow the part where they had to promised to love and stay with each other no matter in sickness, worse or death.... keeps me wondering how many of us can actually do that. It's like a huge thing to me, how can i ever promise or believe someone without actually know that i can really do it. so probably when the day comes, i will know lah...

Later that day,  i clean up the house since my family went to genting. vacuum and mop the floor so that when my little naughty nephew can have a clean, sparkling floor to walk when he comes later that night. After that, xj and jx jio for MJ and we start our game around evening , halfway thconsidered that very early for MJ. About halfway through the game jx got a call from his brother, he broke his arm at pasir ris chalet during a soccer match. jx is still ask him to take cab home from changi cos he's in the middle of the game with us. We told him how could you let your brother take cab from changi with a broken arm. "we can grab our dinner along the way" i guess jx finds it hard to actually want us to stop the game, so we manage to convince him.  we went down to pick up ah chuan. In the end, he's still in A&E, diagnosis and xray took damn long. Therefore we end up eating nasi lemak at Changi hospital @ Qiji, so so lah. :) By the time ah chuan came out from the A&E it was already 10.30pm with a broken arm. Omg, we went back and finished up where we left.... such a long sunday...

I wanna look like luo han fish head

I saw this cap online.. hehe.. i like it's so happening... gonna get one for fun....
Looks nice in picture but have to see the actual material... haha..

Hipstermatic whore

Having fun experimenting with hipstermatic on iphone. I can totally throw away my holga... camwhore for quite a few takes.. hehe.. fun.. cos it makes the complexion really blur.. haha.. 

Monday Blue? not really.... with yoga and popcorn

yesterday after our sunday mahjong session, mj kakis keep saying want to go movie lah, want to go eat after work lah... i told them i got yoga lesson maybe after that bah... to my surprise they wanted to join me at hot yoga... lol... so i quickly booked 3 slots for them haha...

therefore today, i was really looking forward to see them at yoga lesson... haha.. so funny... they really came for the 1 week free trial. All of them admit it was really sweating like mad and hot in there... we left the yoga place after the 1 hr hot yoga and head to watch alice in wonderland at kallang. Things are getting interesting, XXX was like a dead shopping center during weekday, so we bought our tickets without discount and head towards the popcorn counter. KL was saying let's get a salted and sweet popcorn each, as he was pretty loud the staff heard him. At that moment, the staff was getting ready to throw the leftover popcorn into the garbage bag. KL and JX being the super thick-skinned kind, keep psycho-ing the staff.

"how about we throw away the popcorn for you"...
"Anyway since you're throwing why dun give it to us free"...
"how bout we pay for 2 drinks and get the popcorn for free"...

in the end, the staff was really kind to give us 2 free popcorn. And, being the typical singaporean. After we got our freebies, JX super cheeky and asked how about the 2 boxes of nachos behind, you gonna throw it right? i dun think he really wants the nachos, he just trying to be funny. Crazy ah, how to finish 2 big popcorn, wah lau eh still want nachos!!!

In the end, we got our popcorn and watch the movie. After all the hard work we put in at yoga, all of us were really hungry after the movie. We went to geylang G7 to eat frog leg porridge... i guess that's why i hardly lose weight after all these yoga session.

So fun tonight, it's been awhile since the 4 of us got together and play till so late on Monday night. and, this year we still need to organise another alumni chalet session for MJ tournament... Let's do it again!

HIMYM Teacup pig and hooker

This week himym got a teacup pig, so cute~ i'm just worried that rearing this sort of pigs might be like puppy mills. living in horrendous conditions. They are so mini and cute. 

Again, some classic love theory on HIMYM. 

Bait in HIMYM dialect of English, is a pretense invented by a single man to lure a single lady into his apartment.

Hooking people and being hooked. Hooked relationships involve one person stringing another along, never fully committing to actual romance, but also never fully denying the possibility of future seriousness.

And the use of "Right now" paints a picture of some sort magical future time when everything will work out, but the truth is that will never happen.

Robin: "I may be a little loose, but money never changed hands."

so classic hilarious... 

張克帆 我是個soso的男生

我好喜欢这首歌。不知何时, 他的歌声让我感动~

Growing up

I'm already 26(27) this year, that's life and how time keeps slipping pass you and never comes back. a feeling of nostalgia get in to me after meeting up with a bunch of primary school classmates. No matter what we won't be able to go back to the good old days.

i wonder what my brain was thinking or doing when i'm a 12 years old girl. ahh ha... probably cute boy and food.. muahaaa...it's funny how we look back and luff about silly things and events that happened. I guess that's what we will do when we grow old, i'll sitting on my automated rock-a-grandma chair surfing my old memories on an apple ipad. sibey hi-tech cool granny.

old memories we talk about are keeping tadpole and spiders, BCG jab, flashing our NRIC photo with our primary 6 faces, teachers hitting student with ruler, throwing chalk and canning are perfectly common during our generation. if you ever complain to your parent, you're practically throwing yourself into the fire. most of us changed, becoming wiser as we aged. Even the joker of the class, he turned out to be very well behaved.

当年少时的"友情"加上"回忆"，和"今天"相聚在一起，是一种非常奇妙的东西。。。    

这就叫"缘分"ah！

MADNESS

Went to the kate spade sale with my colleague, super long queue that day (MMS image courtesy from alice). All i can say what happened that day was MADNESS... In the midst of the madness, seriously dunno what got in to me that day, I actually got 2 bags out from the sale. heart pain sia.. haha.. but nvm new year coming... time to count ang bao $$ again.

For awhile i was thinking to get those plain longchamp bag.. and lucky didn't buy cos i dun really like the plain colours ones, and recently this design caught my eye.. heee.. looks slightly navy-ish and i think would be good for my mum also, can share share. hehe... dunno if i still can get it in store... hmmmm...

i want this after new year... hehe...

我好喜欢下一站幸福哦。。

他们的幸福，将在哪里到站？

Okuribito - the gift of last memories

Just watched departures aka okuribito, i've heard some good review on the movie. And finally, got a weekend break to watch this long overdue movie. an Asian movie filled with death and corpse but it's not horror flick :)

He sold his cello and ended his musical career, going back to his old hometown hope to carve out a niche for himself. By responding to a job ad which misprint as a travel job, he got hired as an embalmer by accident. We do know such profession, but we have negative thought to it. this film brings the profession out in such gracefulness. They handle such a unusual topic with such reserved and beautiful manner.

there's a part of the story that mentioned about giving a stone to represent your feeling. :) haha I once received a little round stone from a friend. he pick up while he went hiking for awhile. Nothing valuable, but it touches my heart. At that point, i dun think his intention was to represent his feeling. It's just something he stumble upon while trekking and thought it's rather cute in that treacherous forest. How funny it's to find similar movie element in your daily life...

Btw, quite surprise to find Ryoko Hirosue 広末涼子 in this movie. i like her in beach boys... summmer snow.. shotgun marriage... awwwww..

alma animation sui~sui~

Joseph Gordon-Levitt on 500 days of summer

seldom will i appreciate such movies... those kind that i think it's too artistic that i immediately switch off....but i like this movie, shot in a very clever way, featuring romantic in a different light.
featuring nice soundtracks and 60s trends...sibey vintage...

Tom is a romantic who believes in true love...

Hahaaa... hmmm.... does true love exists? and when will i meet my next summer?

and, i've got to admit, i love cute boy... tom is cute... awwww..

五指山、天涯海角、南山海上观音

I was looking up some project reference for 海南岛, and saw these 3 places popping up as i searches for photos and reference... makes me want to go there for holiday...

imagine going to 天涯海角... can shout something like what they always did in the movie

“不管走到天涯海角,不管等到天荒地老,也要找到我的哪个她。”

and 南海观音 must be as big as the statue of liberty...

was it 悟空 being trapped under the 五指山... if i'm there, i might turn into 猪八戒.. haha... with such fairy-tale like scenic surrounding...

我好喜欢下一站，幸福。。。

this drama is really touching and remind me of Jimmy lin "放羊的星星", this is much better. very nicely capture love scene and beautifully crafted story. For the first few episode, it's so sad that you probably need a whole box of tissue box (i use towel). This show doesn't have a lot of advertising, they hardly appear in any talkshow or entertainment news. But still good show will eventually get noticed :)
In this show, i like 吳建豪, he looks so much better with his clean cut boyish looking hair. Charming and cute, i always thought he looks very gay in the past idol drama. And, with 安以轩 it was such a refreshing couple. hehe.. it's a female director, i guess perhaps that's why the love scene was so touching and very well captured.
Just add this song to my playlist...

看了流眼泪，好感动 -- 过了今晚 在也留不住你

我还记得以前我也好喜欢张克凡的，他是真得满帅的-- 白白干干净净。康熙这次希望無緣情侶再續前緣! 棒打鴛鴦兩離分！张克凡就唱了这首歌- 两个世界。
听着听着，不仅为他们的觉得--命运弄人。歌词里写着：
这段属於黑夜的爱情

注定要蒸发阳光底

爱上了不该爱的人

连伤心都会来不及

。。。即使是在做效果，也感动了我。

我欣赏的中港台男生♥

ta dah... the first one is "xiao ding" - 丁春誠, ah fang told me to watch godfrey 高以翔 on Kang Xi, ended up i prefer 丁春誠's looks and feel. muahaaa... he own a panerai.. damn rich... i like the watch... i wonder when can i afford such a watch.... omg... chye got one!!! very solid!!!






 the second one is "xiao gui" - 黃鴻升, actually didn't really take special notice of him from the start. Just when recently i was watching a lot of Yu Le Bai Fen Bai, with a lot of xiao zhu and him. Saw his biodata and his birthday falls on 1983 Nov 28, 2 days away from mine.... after reading one of his article online, hurhur i was thinking if we share the same kind of personality... the sagittarius .... i prefer when he smile... warm and cute... he's much tone down version of xiao zhu... xiao zhu too talkative... i prefer the slightly quiet xiao gui...

再见吧~ 午夜 与 宅女

I'm going to change my lifestyle from now on... hohohooh... no more sleeping late and no more staying up to watch random drama and series!!!

Dunno why just feels like my body is aging faster than my age... used to have an active lifestyle and feels better. Ever since i started working, whenever there's a break on weekend i will be a 宅女, stay at home the whole day to complete some drama series. I came upon on a blog from my fellow colleague, wearewonderwomen.com. This very brave girl blog about fighting cancer although she lost her battle in the end. I really admire her for her bravery and her attitude towards life. 

We are living in the world of advanced medical and more and more incurable disease... people have longer lifespan at the same time prone to more lifestyle disease. Right now right here, i just want to keep myself healthy and thinking positive everyday... not to stress myself at work, not to tired myself at home... Keep breathing and living right, i hope it's not too late for a right change. 

last night i watched my last late night movie - surrogates... more and more movies like to feature how mankind in the future will evolve into relying on machine/robots. How virtual we can get, how safer and comfort the world can be living with robots. Only to find out that someone, somewhere will screw up and start the killing spree. Latter, everyone realise how we're being control by the machine and they are now on our own - standing on their feet. 

I don't really believe that human will tap on machine like in surrogates, we're too egotistic bastard that wants to be in control of everything. We would love robots to ease our daily life chores but not overrule our life. :) just my thoughts.. it might even be ironic that i'm typing on a computer... hello world!

我心臟插有 一根樹枝

Recently, bean fell in love with treeson, a very cute character created by Bubi Au Yeung. 

Treeson is a kind creature who was brought up by the trees of a forest. He is discovered by a boy named Ren at the beginning of the story and the two learn to face their past through their friendship.

I like how simple treeson is and yet it feels heartwarming every time. :) I'm not that kind that would spend on figurine, I'm too practical... wahahaa... 

a journey to the west

long time no blog... wahaaa.... very tied down with work... finally managed to sneak off a weekday to go on a mini road trip with my friends. :)

And we drove all the way to KL on Friday morning 5.30am!!! i have to work till 3am on Friday, and was left with 1 hour time to pack my stuff.. quick and easy, the standard stuff that i bring to Genting... LOL being there too many times with my family know what to pack in a weekend.

We pool in a total of RM800 for this road trip for 4 pax, which managed to cover all our expenses from petrol, toll and even food. We got our lodging for free thanks to yihui's company service apartment at KL which fit 9 of us prefectly!! there's actually space for more ppl imo. I was so tired, that we did make full use of a MJ table we found at the store room in the apartment.

it was an experience, although i just sit through the trip and sleep. It's much easy and accessible with car around KL. shopping was so-so and very tiring for me, nothing much at the pertaling street as usual just imitation goods and ang mohs around, but the food experience at KL was superb. I missed their wanton mee and claypot rice... hmmm.. i had fun snapping some random photo as well... The road up genting was curvy and with high elevated slope, we went up with swift and mazda 3, happily all the way up~

coming back on sunday was really devasting... wahhaaa.. a meal at taman sentosa can't even make me happy... i hate to go back to work... how i wish i can still travel and explore other places in msia... beaches...

selamat back to reality~ Tell me why i don't like monday~

Busy weekday - Herman and Shiyu wedding

last Wednesday was really madness... my sis called me and said that "have you seen dad's leg? he refused to go to hospital." Monday night dad was having fever, i noticed his right leg was slightly swollen. The next morning mum took him to see doc, i thought it's okay. until wednesday night when i reached home. I saw his leg swollen and redness... no idea what could be the cause of it, we sent him down to Alexander hospital and stayed there till 3am... They had to put him under observation and blood test. Now, dad feels much better but leg still swollen and red resting at home. the medicine is giving him side effects.. haizz..

yup, and that same night after i reached home, i bathe and sit infront of my computer typing the MC script for Shiyu's wedding. Kevin did his part like freaking 2 days ago, and i still didn't have the time to finish it up.. i type and print till morning 6am.. whoa cool. i'm left with 30 mins and Xiulin will be on her way to fetch me.. i just can feel that my eyes are swollen from lack of sleep...

we reached shiyu's place at around 7am in the morning.. all stuff are ready and all of us starts preparing the buffet for the xiong dis.. haa.. it's so funny.. when they arrived, herman was so honest and straightforward... he say i got the angbao ready $388 can or not.. the xiong di say "it's a lot le" i dunno how the negotiation goes, they gave us the ang bao and we still forced them to eat the buffet... starting with "sour" they had to peel grapefruits, lemon and lime.. and finished it all.. they are so nice people and didn't even bother to bargain with us, they just eat and eat.. we give them smelly herbal tea they also drink... they happily waxed their leg with "SHIYU".. the groom was so enthu he said he be the "I", i guess he thought it would be more meaningful or wat, but the sister were all luffing, cos we use the whole stripe of wax for "I" turn out it a few times bigger than the normal character.. :D We also made them special chocolate cookie.. stuff with wasabi and chilli, there's one guy so happy and glad that he got wasabi flavour... their happiness was short lived.. i managed to get a bottle of "天下第一辣" from JX... when they saw the bottle, they say come give us a spoon.. i immediately busted out in laughter.. i warned them.. lucky they just tried a bit and we let them in, cos they suffered a lot, the groom was sweating like mad..they also bought a cap of water for $10bucks.. haa.. he dyed his hair the day before, and after all the sweating the leftover dyed drips onto his white tuxedo.. :(

finally he's in to the living room, there's 4 more task on the list. finding shiyu's shoe and eating ice cream for the key, sing Jay's song and sign love pledge. when we offer the ice-cream to the guys, none of them dare to eat. we bought yam flavour cos it's purple! one of the brave ones, finally took a scoop and say "很好吃! can eat no worries!" the rest all dig in to the ice-cream, they even forgot why they are eating it in the first place... after the awful singing by herman and lipstick love pledge, the groom finally gets his bride!!!

so lovin and sweet... together they make a great couple.

see my facebook photo.. haaa..

a-wakening day at punggol

when wake boarding with my friends at punggol, it's was really a better experience than cable ski at batam.. haaa.. <-sorry shufang. Although time was short at the punggol, you will have your personalise rope, coach that bring you to the door step! haaa, a little bit of picnic..

it's really fun if only we could hang around for another few more hours, the booking it really expensive. heee... photos will be up sooon... :) muahahaa..

zzzZzz tired, after that we went to jerry's for buffalos wings and i had to rush down to Gombak for MJ session. all in a day~

monster vs alien vs predator

watch monster vs alien 3D at cathay yesterday, better quality glasses than the 4D show that i've watched. But still glasses don't fit and eyes got tired 30 minutes into the movie.

i still prefer those disney and movie world 4D show, short and entertaining. don't really like M vs A movie, haha should have follow my own instinct. :)

Nowadays after every rla's birthday we'll catch a movie, i fell asleep in fast and furious although i did try my best to stay awake (chair was uncomfortable to sleep on). I won the tickets to the movie premier to catch mathew mcconaughey and jennifer garner, and we missed the first half of the show but still able to follow the movie (typical male charmer who's scare to fall in love/commitment) it's those kind of typical lomantic comedy that make you cry in tears and the next moment smiling and laughing. exactly what i will like = chic flick ;)

Connor Mead: Someone once told me that the power in all relationships lies with whoever cares less, and he was right. (moi think so too and i strikeout the rest.. hohohoo) But power isn't happiness, and I think that maybe happiness comes from caring more about people rather than less...

Night at the museum 2 was kind of dissappointment for me, storyline and plot so-so. the idea was fresh in the first movie, part 2 seems lack of originality and just another continuation of the part 1. hmmmm..

Monster vs Alien - 2.5/5.0
Fast and Furious - ??/5.0
i slept through the whole movie
Ghost of girlfriends past - 3.5/5.0
give it a little more pts to be able to win 2 drops of my tears :)
Night at the Museum 2 - 3.0/5.0

how did team rundown and cloud 9 fare?

Adidas sundown official finally release the race timing, hehe... long waiting result finally here...

I manage to fare better than my standard chartered which is goooood, i thought i'm a gone case after 6km of running, i actually feel like going home. :)

Heheh... update this post with my sundown run hard photo and also slacking photos... bahahaaa...

adidas sundown, team rundown, needs a rubdown

i thought running 1okm at night will be much better off than in the day, well i was wrong. Tonight is freaking humid and hot... i was tired and lack of motivation... hahaa.. must be last night mahjong, it really wasn't a good idea to continue the 2nd round after we send daxiong's gf back to novena... we went for supper at newton, carb-up for my next day run. On our way back, Mahjong Goddess entered our mind and suddenly we're heading back to daxiong's place for another round till this morning.. came back home boss haven't finished with his work.. hehe.. before i went to bed at around 7.30am.. i wash and dry the running jersey.. (mum forgot to do it for me... sob)

woke up at 4pm, feeling super shag... ate char siew rice for "lunch+dinner", and set off to changi.. everywhere in changi you can spot those runners, but not a single sight of the bapok. They are smart not to appear on sundown day... hehe..

i ran and ran till the first 5-6km.. and finally saw 1 drink store!! omg, they only have 1 drink station throughout the 10km run... save $ i guess.. worst than standard chartered run, anyway i grabbed my 2 drinks and that when everythings started to slow down, my mind telling my body. "hey, walk for awhile la.. it's okay, later you can pick up the speed." i think i'm seriously old and no longer as fit as rovering day, i remembered army half marathon i only slow down and start walking after 18km. what happened, damn!! it's mind over body seriously, my body still can run, but my mind is telling me to stop and relax a bit, you're no longer 18.. wahaaa.. at least u finished the race to the end. :) hiphip hurrary!!

both team cloud 9 and rundown went to old town white coffee at east coast for celebration, it feels great to meet up your fellow colleagues for such an event on a weekend. I guess this is how people builds friendship, hope i'm able to join them for run and sundown again after i go..

我们只要有心去完成一件事，结果如何不重要。。。
