Knock Knock

It's been a long long time since I pen down something. ( Clicked on a new tab > view blog> gosh! May 21.)

The month started off as a crazy one, with many late nights and some sleepless nights. It paid off I suppose to see my event up and running, the difficult part was preparing for it. I sometimes wonder if this is what I want to do for life? No, probably not. This is for now, and for another 2 years i suppose. And then.. some other plans should kick in*wink*wink*

There has been some changes here at work, be it for good or worst, I'm looking at it with a positive mind, and looking forward for shorter hours at work. Well, that's what they said it was all about, bring in more sales, and create more balance between work and lifestyle. You spot the irony there? But oh well, let's see where it will head on the 1st July.

Am having a weekend off tomorrow, and looking forward to do some quiet things at home. Well, for starters, I'll put up those backdated pictures.. from... urmm... early this year? At the back of my mind, there's the Dim Sum@Yuan, the PD trip, Mothers' Day, BBQ at my house, ok.. it's a long list to do.

This morning I saw this article on my iGoogle, which I thought I'll share it, it's a an article called "Letting Go of Sentimental Clutter". You know how we all have a little box, ok maybe a few boxes, filled with cards, stickers, wrappers etc.. Once in a few years, we take it out from under the bed, blow away the thick layer of dust, stare at the contents for a moment, and then push it back under the bed. I'm guilty as charged! Over the many years, I've collected so many things which I felt there's a sentimental value to me, from cards to movie tickets! and the weirdest, a dried leaf from Autumn in NZ. The content of this article did make a lot of sense, and gave me that urge to clean up my room, but I know it's a tedious project that will probably take months to complete. At one point when I was loitering around with no job last year, I wanted to redecorate my room, but it never happened. I wonder if that will happen anytime soon.. hrmm..
Anyways, here is the link to the article.

Happy Decluttering!

Backdated: Of cheese cakes and tuna puffs

Was invited to go over to Li Ping & Kin Mun's new pad for steamboat. Brought them a lemon cheesecake. Since I was in the baking zone, decided to try out those puffs pastry i bought the other day. After a lil trial and error... i got these...

My family

Families are like fudge - mostly sweet with a few nuts.

Came across this quote as I was reading through a site, hoping to charge some positive energy into myself before I take on the day. Things have been really hectic, at the end of the day, I feel really low, and find myself wondering where is all this leading to. But as I enter my warm cozy house, I know that it is not the warm cozy furniture, not the dim dining lights that gives the feeling - it is the thought of the joy and laughter that takes place in every corner of the house, the every family member that makes my day.


*Mom, Dad, Alicia, Andrew, Piggy, and the new addition to the family, my Darling - the nuttiest people in my life *

I ♥ You all !

The bob !

I finally had a haircut, after putting up with this messy curls that was going out of place for months!

It was totally unplanned, funny how it just happened and the opportunity came along. I've been saying that I need a haircut since the 2nd of April. Every weekend in fact, but time never allowed. I think the comment from my colleague pushed me towards that direction. I had a really bad hair day at work yesterday, so i kept it all up and away from my face. No, it wasn't the usual pony tail, it was just a short stump! When she saw me in the pantry, she said I looked like an "ah sam", literally, a middle aged "aunty". Oh, I was so offended, and I thought, that's it, I'm cutting my hair this week! And then the email flashed, to say that sales meeting is canceled, so I hurried along and got a haircut.

Feeling so much lighter and happier.

Change of status

*Fuh*Blowing the dust off my blog, ok, that's a bit lame, but gosh, can't believe that I have not written since Valentines Day ! That's decades ago already. *pulling a guilty face*

It has been a while, and so much has happened since then.

Picking up from where I left, I celebrated V-Day this year ! After giving it a miss for 3 years? I've got my darling now ! And I wanna celebrate every single valentines day with him ! Wheeeeeee.
Ok, now I sound like a high school kid in love. Well, I am in love, and I'm proud to announce it. things are moving a big step forward and I'm happy and grateful about it.

The recent change of status on Facebook stirred up a bit of attention from our friends. Years of being a FB user, and I have never felt complied to change or announce it, just because of peer pressure. But this time, I'm proud to click on "in a relationship" :P

More happy posts to come!
