Tag: Red (Orange) Affair

It’s been a while since anybody tagged me. I think those who did previously kinda got frustrated for me not replying their tag. I’m so sorry… ‘tui pu zie’. :@

Anyway, few days back finally somebody remembered me. She sent me this red affair tag. I wanted to do it but at the same time it also sent me scratching head as I hardly have anything red to wear for a long time. Pink ada lah.

So, I searched my limited photo dbase and found this. Since hers also orange tone, I’m hoping she will accept this too. Boleh?

In case you’re wondering, that was taken ages ago. So Ah Lian right. Hee hee… Those were the days. I don’t look like that anymore…. for a long time now.

I would like to pass this tag to one of my best friend, Malaika Mommy. Take your time. Do it when you are not on the road…

Saw this interesting speedt test link on Judy’s site. So I gather no harm trying it myself. This is my results…

Retail Therapy

I was so so so mad that I have to go through this pain and discomfort. So geram and upset. So what did I do? I pampered and splashed myself with a gift to me.

Today is the 4th day and this person has yet to notice (eh, how come I’m not surprised??? I’m a parasite + wong min por now… sobs) but he will find out tonight cos he reads my blog every night before he sleeps.

Btw, if you‘re reading this.. fyi I’m still mad, just that I’ve shelved that aside as I have other more important things to worry and deal with now.

Cish!

My Valentine’s

I’m back….

…from a splendid break in KL. Somehow 10 days seemed to pass in a glimpse of eyes. Aiya.

We had initially planned for a early Valentine’s celebration in KL. We have been longing for some quality pat toh time for as long as I could remember but as always a plan is always as a good as a plan. With the on going cny festival, friends visiting, bla bla… we ended up at home on the day we were supposed to be out. How UN-romantic.

But nevermind, cos it was a fruitful trip for me. He he….

Despite not having a real celebration, I received my present in time. Terra….

Won’t elaborate on the gift but hubs says that’s gonna be my pressie for Anniversary, Valentine’s, birthday, and all the in tow celebrations for a long long time to come. *shudder* I hope he’s not serious. *wink*

On the actual day, we went to this place for dinner…

Nothing to shout about. But it has been a while we had dinner together on a weekday so it feels really good. Food wise. No romantic package meal. Afterall, we’re ‘Lo Fu Lo Chai’, those days when hubs will spend RM600 on a Valentine’s meal were looooooong gone.

We ordered wanton noodles and abalone porridge respectively. Ryan on the other hand was being entertained by ’sotong’ so we somehow managed to get our peaceful Valentine’s dinner. Not bad wat…..

Paiseh to show your feet?

Have you ever felt embarassed to take off your shoes because of those ugly cracked heels?

I do lor.

Nah.. Not that my feet are so badly cracked nor they are sooooooooo ‘mm kin tak yan’ but tell me, who doesn’t want baby skin smooth heels right? Moreover chinese new year is around the corner. I want to go pai nin. I cannot be wearing shoes into other people’s house, I cannot ensure I’ll have stockings all the time. So I told myself last week, it’s time to put some effort on it.

So off I went….. jalan jalan and popped into Guardian (again! my favourite store.. I just love checking out the pharmacies.. ) then I found this….

Needless to say, it works. Well, it’s not magic cream and I still don’t have that baby smooth heels like my son’s (blekkk) but it does show a drastic improvement.

In case you’re wondering, sorry.. no ‘before’ and ‘after’ picture here.

Ha ha..

Prevention againts the number #1 killer

I lost a friend to heart disease many years ago. We were not bestest of buddies but we always hang out together after work hours just to get the stress out.

She may not have led the healthiest lifestyle but she came as an ordinary person with ordinary living habits. So when we found out about her passing, we were in shocked. I still remember when we attended her wake, her mother was sharing with us the importance of a healthy lifestyle; eat healthy and stay healthy. It was very sad to hear.

It has been so long that the memory of her kinda faded; until I saw Campbell’s Go Red’s banner which highly publicise the goal of American Heart Association’s Go Red movement; of which reminds me of her. Suddenly I have this urge to spread the awareness of heart disease prevention – all with positive actions and efforts to take care and reduce the risk of heart ailments.

I’m no angel but I’m sharing this in hope with this little awareness out, it helps save a life. What about you?

Leftie or Rightie

Came across this while surfing the net many moons back…. Right Brain vs Left Brain

When I first looked at it, I saw the dancer dancing clockwise (meaning I uses my right brain at that instant – I think quite true) but once I refocussed and start imagining the dancer dancing anti clockwise, in an instant the dancer changes direction. It is definitely not a coincidence because I also tried it out with hubs. We both watched it at the same time but when he sees clockwise, I actually saw anti clockwise, vice versa. *Duh*. Now I believe he is from Mars and I am from Venus….

What’s for lunch?

What are you having for lunch? I’m having this… slurpss. Got the “sotong” to prepare this for me (refer receipe book). I know.. I can buy a pack of this from the shop easily but saja la.. since she’s so free at home.

Back to the workforce?

Aaahhh…. Aaahhh… I have been out of the workforce for 4 months, going into 5 months now. It wasn’t smooth sailing at first as I had such a hard time coping and blending into this new SAHM lifestyle. Hey.. SAHM is not really ‘tai-tai’ lifestyle!!! It comes with heavy responsibility!

Anyway, last week I received a call from a head hunter in KL. Apparently he has this job opportunity for me. Told him about my situation and that I am residing in Singapore now bla bla bla. Period. However, just when I thought I had put an end to it, this headhunter called me back couple days ago and told me company ‘T’ is very keen and is willing to take me in to work in their HQ in Singapore. (I still have not gone for interview but I worked closely with this company when I was with my previous co. So I guess they sort of know me and my credentials. Cehhh..) The package – *drum roll* a hard to resist 6 digit figure a year!!!! I have till tomorrow to think about it. Money is definitely good and very very very tempting but what about my son? Hmm.. I can’t leave him with ’sotong’ (maid) for sure and I also mmm fong sum to leave him in a child care when he’s such a clinging tot at this stage. How how??? *headache*

I Found It!!

Yay!!! I’m sooooo happy. I found a real cool eyeliner that seriously won’t smear, won’t smudge and it simply stays on for hours. I have tried many many many brands of eyeliner – I lost count. They all failed me despite their claim to be the best color stay, waterproof, water resistant etc etc…. Tried putting on foundation prior application, eye base etc … again all futile and I always ended up with a pair of panda eyes within minutes of application. No Joke!

Anyways just before you give up… do give this a shot. I’ve tried it and it WORKS wonder, with reasonable price too! Good things do come cheap.
