I havent had a pleasant sunday for some time already and i'm so glad today turned out to be not too bad!
I wore this pj my aunt bought for me today :) It's really cute cos it says "brainy". If only i am brainy :)
Kong bak pau
Something special about today i guess :) I'm really amazed how my granny's muslim maid can cook such gd braised pork when she has never tasted any in her life!
I get a feeling that some of u might say ewwww.. to this. Cos coriander probably falls into the catergory of greens with disagreeable taste. My grandma and mom will swear by it and say it is the coriander that makes the kong bak pau perfect :)
When was the last time u had kong bak pau? I think my last was when i ate it with gab during patho posting. Correct? But the last time i saw it is during prof chia's lecture :) For ur cardivascular health, maybe it's good that u eat kong bak paus in moderation :)
Dad went to pump air at the petrol kiosk
This looks like a random photo but i thought it was pretty interesting that i can see myself in the side mirror:) Today, i had the realisation that i prob will not sell my compact camera even after i get a slr. There are days when it'll prob be more convenient to bring a small camera around. Let's hope this camera will continue to serve me well for a very long time!
Hope you had a gd weekend too :)

Jupiterly Happy
My day started off really badly but it got better with some work done at Marc's house :)
I learnt something abt marc today! He can draw really well :) I really should have brought my camera so that i can feature some of his masterpieces here :)
He was so cute you know.. when he was young, he dated his works by masterpiece 1, masterpiece 2,3,4 etc :) Then eventually it was shortened to M5,6 etc..
On my walk out, wenhui and i saw 2 really bright stars! Which i was later told that they are Jupiter and Venus. How wonderful!
I managed to get a photo taken at home..
They looked nicer when unobstructed at marc's place :)
Anyway, another happifying thing is this!
(clickable for larger view)
This was taken at the Lugu lake when i was in Yunan. I didnt post this pic earlier cos i didnt have adobe photoshop to merge the disjuncted photos together to form this panoramic view :) Thanks to wx or i'd nv see the lake as a whole until i go there myself again:)
Beautiful isnt it?
Can u see the distant ridge? The locals think it looks like a pregnant woman lying supine. She's supposed to symbolise fertility! I didnt make this up cos i'm doing o&g Ok? It's true!
Anyway, i strongly recommend that you tune in to channel newsasia 10.30 pm tmr to the programme called Into The Realms Of Shangri-la
Synposis says "In this week's episode, find out how modern ideas are affecting the age-old cultural traditions of the Mosou people. "
If i have havent told u abt the mosou pple, u'd find out some of their interesting practices :)
Have a good wkend pple :)

Prodromal
I really suspect that i am prodromal for some bug again..
Despite sleeping so much ystdy, i was persistently tired today :(
Sometimes i just know it that something is coming... Today i had the throbbing headache i always get tt heralds sth awful!
Hope my prophylaxis works! -crosses fingers- Or i'll have to kiss my wkend gdbye :(
On a more cheerful note, the happiest thing of the day was going for Prof Chia's lecture. He is soo cute! I really really like him! :)
What's disturbing however is my mom told me abt her nightmare. She dreamt that i got beaten up!!!
Wonder what it's supposed to mean.. :S
Hope everyone is looking fwd to weekend as happily as i am!

3
All these while, i've always had a special liking for the number 3.
and perhaps unknowingly, "3" has be incorporated into my everyday life :)
For example, i realise i like to be in a group of 3 and a lot of my gd friends are found in groups of 3 :)
I shall continue to take note how else 3 has been appearing in my life.

Saturday
Today i wondered when did i start to love Saturdays :)
Saturdays are nice cos there's another rest day tmr to look fwd to unlike Sundays when I'd inevitably start to think about the week ahead.
Anyway, that thought aside, i've got 2 pics to share!
Can anyone tell me what this is about? What's the big thing that's gonna happen this thursday?
With a bit of imagination, u'd be able to see a dog or pig with wings getting ready to take flight :)
Pics taken with my beloved humble treo.

Week to Week
I realise that since O&G started, i've been living from week to week. When i was in SGH, i used to look forward to friday when it's only monday...
But today, i surprised gabriel for forgetting that today is friday!
Anyway, i'm so glad that weekend is here.. I realise one thing i look forward to every week is a new episode of Grey's =)
Sometimes i really like the opening lines of each episode, cos qt often its often quite true.
This wk's is ok... :)
"When you're little night time is scary because there are monsters hiding right under the bed. When you get older, the monsters are different. Self-doubt, loneliness, regret... You may be older and wiser, u still find yourself scared of the dark"

Lost!
I realised i dropped one side of my very much loved earrings today! :(
(nope.. they're not from swarovski)
Hopefully it fell off at home and is lying on the floor some where!
If not, i think i will go back to the same shop and get a new pair!

1 Month Old
How long ago was it when i was 1 month old?
I looked at my 1 month old niece in amazement cos 22 yrs ago, i was this small!
Watching babies cradled comfortably never fail to make me wonder how comfortable/uncomfortable it is cos i cannot rmbr :)
Just look at their hands! They're sooo small :)
At today's party i got to see my nephew and nieces i usually see only once in a year. I was so happy to be able to take some photos!
As usual taking photos of children is always challenging. They cannot stop moving!
I think shan yu will grow up to be qt good looking in future! He's really mischievious now though :)
Children of my cousins i used to play with when i was little
I'm always out of sync with everybody :( When i was learning to walk, they were in upper primary or secondary school. Now that they have their families, i'm still studying :(
Photos of them taking turns to jump
The 2nd youngest of the lot
It's times like this that i wish i'm closer to my paternal family :) My dad's family is simply too big to keep track of who's who.. but i hope there could be more of such gatherings :)

Sweet Things
Ystdy my pri school best friend told me she baked something!
Strawberry marshmellow cake :)
It looks really good for first time! :)
How i wish i have all the time in the world to bake! Haii.. i'm kinda drained, overwhelmed and traumatised by O&G now:(
Come Feb next year when she comes back to sg, maybe we can bake something together!
Ystdy gab also treated me to bread pudding at Paisley & Cream Cafe. It's really not bad.. cos i've nv been a fan of bread pudding.
Will definitely be back for more :)

Nights in Rodanthe
Gab thought i'd like this movie and i just have to watch it to find out why!
The start of the movie was really slow.. and i was waiting... and anticipating... for so long for the part gab thought i'd like to come out.
Gab also said that it was a sad movie and i only understood what he meant when Richard Gere died! Hmm.. somehow i wasnt expecting that to happen!
Well, anyway, i like this quote "there is a different kind of love, one that gives you courage to be better than you are and that makes you think anything is possible"
And i also like the house and the beach that was featured in the movie...
Unfortunately, this is the best pic i can find of that house!

下雨天
The weather is so conducive for sleeping :)
下雨天了怎么办
我好想你
不敢打给你
我找不到原因
什么失眠的声音
变得好熟悉
沉默的场景
做你的代替
陪我听雨滴
期待让人越来越沉迷
谁和我一样
等不到他的谁
爱上你我总在学会
寂寞的滋味
一个人撑伞
一个人擦泪
一个人好累
怎样的雨怎样的夜
怎样的我能让你更想念
雨要多大天要多黑
才能够有你的体贴
其实没有我你分不清那些
彻别接近还能多一些
别说你会难过
别说你想改变
被爱的人不用道歉
期待让人越来越疲惫
谁和我一样
等不到他的谁
爱上你我总在学会
寂寞的滋味
一个人撑伞
一个人擦泪
一个人好累
怎样的雨怎样的夜
怎样的我能让你更想念
雨要多大天要多黑
才能够有你的体贴
其实没有我你分不清那些
彻别接近还能多一些
别说你会难过

Wise Quote
I saw this on my friend's blog and it's worthy to be thought of the day!
"Try to make at least one person happy every day. If you cannot do a kind deed, speak a kind word. If you cannot speak a kind word, think a kind thought. Count up, if you can, the treasure of happiness that you would dispense in a week, in a year, in a lifetime!"
Despite being postcall, i garnered enough energy to go walk walk cos i thought it'll be good for me :)
I feel a bit more relaxed this weekend cos my really fierce tutor will be on leave till thursday! Woohooo!
Some pics to share!
Lantana at Esplanade rooftop
I decided to complete the Biennale since it's going to end and i'm not sure when i'd be free again :)
These pictures do no justice to some of the exhibits. Especially the following pics of the light installation called Between You and I.. i was so fascinated by the lights which evoked some spatial presence.. Something i couldnt capture on my camera!
Utopian City
Location
This sculture installation would have been more perfect if it was in an air-conditioned room :)
On my way back, i saw the nice peek of sun.
On the whole, i enjoyed the last bit of biennale :) I'd be looking forward to the next one! And perhaps by then i'd be equipped with a better camera =)
