Feeling Disgusted!!

I'm feeling disgusted after watching the 6.30 news just now about the 2 year old girl being knocked down by a van and no one stopped to help. Got run over again by a truck and again no one stopped to help. They just walked past and ignored the girl. Some detoured when they saw the the girl. It wasn't until 18 people walked by without lifting a single helping hand when a cleaning lady saw the girl on the road and pulled her to the side of the road and called for help. My eyes are filled with tears as I recall what I saw on the news just now. What is the society coming to?? Is it so hard to lend a helping hand or just call for call?? What's more, the victim is a 2 year old helpless girl. She was still conscious after being ran over the first time. If those people or rather animals who walked past before had taken some time out of their "very busy schedule" to help her, she would not have been ran over the second time. This happened in China, Foshan. I wonder if it were to happen here, would the same thing happen? Would people just go about their business and ignore someone who obviously needs some help?

I goggled the news and found this link which summarised what happened. The poor girl is still in intensive care and it would be a miracle if she survives.. 

This is so true ..

Today's parents are too protective of their child. This comic strip is soo true..

林凡 & 郁可唯 - 听你说

<<听你说>>

曲：王雅君     词：王雅君

我挺开心你为努力生活
和你们分享要的每一秒钟

如果难过你的肩膀最辽阔

你帮我带走乌云满布的天空

如果生活少了有你陪我

我整天开着手机也感到失落

因为我们都最想看到彼此灿烂的笑容

我懂星座却没有人想我

真的喜欢一个人安静的自由

我做的梦我坚持做到最后

就算我爬到云端也继续做梦

我唱的歌只希望能快乐

其它我也不想要想的太多

因为我们都最想 拥有自己最真的感动

听你说 听你说

我们同时拥有一个真心的朋友

要日出日落 因为有梦 所以更认真生活

听你说 听你说

我们真实拥有一片美好的的天空

不能常联络却更紧握我们交换的美梦

只想听你说

我懂星座却没有人想我

真的喜欢一个人安静的自由

我做的梦我坚持做到最后

就算我爬到云端也继续做梦

听你说 听你说

我们同时拥有一个真心的朋友

要日出日落 因为有梦 所以更认真生活

A song to share about best friends .. 

Love the rhythm and the lyrics are also very meaning ..

My Wants: Loewe Red Oro Amazona

My latest want that I have been lemming is the Loewe (pronounced LO-ee-Vay) Oro Amazona in Red. I like that the red is not to the whole bag but only the handles so that its not so garish. This brand is also not as popular amoung the masses and you will not see many people carrying the same bag unlike some other monogrammed brand. The only 2 downsides are the hefty price tag and the sand coloured suede exterior.

New Job .. New Beginning ..

Its been a week since I started my new job after a thoroughly satisfying 3 week break, where we took a short trip to Bangkok (will talk more in another post) and basically sleeping late everyday and waking up just in time for lunch..

It was pretty hard getting back into the sleep early, wake up early routine last week but I think I'm slowly getting used to it. As my title said, I am starting a new job which is totally out of my field of expertise and what I'm familiar with. It is a totally new beginning for me and I hope that I will not regret my decision to go into something totally new.. 

Movie Night: Conan the Barbarian

With nothing to do over over the Hari Raya holidays, J and I decided to catch Conan the Barbarian. Having absolutely no idea of what the movie was about except for the hulking half naked lead actor, we were definitely not prepared for the gory scenes that were awaiting us. Noses were cut off, hands were chopped off and plenty of blood were spilled throughout the movie. This movie is not for the faint hearted and due to some R-rated scenes, it was rated M18 which we later found out. I enjoyed the movie mainly because it did not require my brain juices with its typical romance novel story lines.

Now Watching: City Hunter

Thanks to my colleague, I've been hooked on this drama since Saturday and have already gone through half the serial. I've read the original Japanese comic when I was in secondary school and find that there have been many changes to the series from the original comic. Nonetheless, the male lead Lee Min-Ho is super suave.

The story tells of a man Lee Yoon-Sung (Lee Min-Ho) who was kidnapped and raised by his father's good friend and comrade, Lee Jin-Pyo. His plan was to train Lee Yoon-Sung to revenge his 20 special forces comrades who were ordered to be killed by 5 high ranking South Korean officials during an assassination mission in North Korea where he was the only survivor.

Along the way, Lee Yoon-Sung meets Kim Na-Na (Park Min-Young) and the 2 of them falls for each other ..

Arirang Korean Restaurant

Another super outdated post. This post has marked as draft since I don't know when. Think it was sometime in Nov or Dec 2010 when I still had bangs. From the time when these photos were taken, we went once more with C and WF in Feb or March. I love their Rice Cake and also the Kimchi. For someone who doesn't take spicy food, the Kimchi was just right. Feel like going for Korean BBQ again.. Maybe I should run this idea by J later and have this for dinner tonight ..

Arirang Korean Restaurant can be found at:

Dim Sum Galore

Sorry for the lack of posts. Finally did what I should have done 3 years ago. Will be embarking on a new journey come September and I hope that I have not made the wrong choice. But before September, there is our trip next month to Bangkok to look forward to. This will be our mini-honeymoon and also my 1st trip to Thailand. Yes! I am super suaku! Have not been to Bangkok before!! I've researched on the places to go to and I also have FL on my Whatsapp so I can consult her as and when I need to. We decided to postpone our honeymoon till after we finish our flat's reno which will happen sometime end of next year.

It's time I started clearing the backlogs in my draft folder. These photos have been sitting in my drafts since April when I treated my parents to Dim Sum at Imperial Treasure at Crowne Plaza Changi Airport one fine Saturday morning. Just looking at the photos now makes me miss the 流沙包 which is a must try everytime I go. The Dim Sum there is very fresh and I like that as it is situated in the far east, the restaurant doesn't have many customers and we could enjoy our brunch at a leisurely pace and the waitresses were able to attend to our requests promptly.

My Wants: Bottega Wallet

I've splurged on something that is a Want again.. My heart was telling me "Buy!" and my head was telling me "Don't Buy!". Been going through this "Buy!" "Don't Buy!" cycle countless times the past week. In the end I succumbed to my heart and bought it.. Will be receiving it in the following days.. Hope that I don't regret my purchase ..

14th May 2011: My Wedding Day (AM)

It has been more than a month since my wedding day and I am finally able to sit down and start on my wedding day post. I thoroughly enjoyed my wedding day and though there were lots of hits and misses during the planning, things turned out well enough on the day itself. Mostly because of my wonderful Jiemeis and Xiongdis who helped us alot on that day itself so that I was able to just enjoy the day and being a beautiful bride. I'll let the pictures do the talking from here on ..

A Touching Wedding Proposal!!

Although my wedding has come and gone, I thought I'll share this video that has  been going viral on Facebook and Youtube of a guy proposing to his girlfriend of 3 years in California. The guy really went through alot of planning to propose to her. The video is pretty long at 14 mins but it is super touching!! Love the song that he chose too.. Everlasting Love..

Peach Garden @ Orchid Country Club

Its high time I stopped procrastinating and started on my wedding day entries. We had our food tasting on 19th March and changed a couple of items in the cold dish and the prawn dish. We had to top up for the change but it was a good thing that we went for the food tasting if not my guests would have had fried food overload. Some places have the option of forgoing the food tasting and using that table on the AD itself. We had one extra table that was not used on the AD so we went down 2 weeks for an advanced fathers day celebration.


I had pretty good reviews from my guests and seems that many loved the Braised Ee-Fu noodles. My uncle even asked for 2nd helpings. At wedding dinners, guests will remember the food more than anything so I am glad that they enjoyed the food. The only grouse I have is the layout of the restaurant. I initially planned for 2 projectors to be used but the VGA cable was not long enough so had to make do with 1 projector and guests who were at both ends of the restaurant had very restricted views. 

For the cold dish, we changed the chives roll, and Chilled Century Egg Terrine to Fresh Prawn Salad and Seafood Mango Roll 

Peach Garden Combination

(Fresh Prawn Salad, Roast Pork, Crab Ball, Fried Beanskin Roll, Marinated Jellyfish and Seafood Mango Roll)

Braised Shark’s Fin with Seafood and Mushroom

The prawn dish was changed from Fried Crispy Prawn with Oats Cereal to 
Drunken Prawns with Chinese Wine

Steamed Soon Hock with Superior Soya Sayce

Braised Sea Cucumber with Fish Maw and Spinach

Roasted Crispy Chicken with Preserved Bean Paste

 Braised Ee-Fu Noodles with Chives and Mushroom

Chilled Jelly Royale with Julienne of Coconut

Sick, tired and disappointed.

A little T.L.C towards a patient goes a long way. Is that too much to ask for? A little time away from ur machines and a little time for ur sick wife?

AD Cocktail Treats

For my AD reception, I wanted to have something different from the usual nuts and drinks for cocktail. Was blog hopping and getting inspirations for my wedding when I came across these Ferrero Rocher Pyramid and Personalised M&Ms on Rachel's blog. The Ferrero Rocher wrappers were in line with my colour theme and so I went out and bought 10 boxes of 30 pcs Ferrero Rocher and got my bridesmaids to stack them up into pyramids with the help of some clear film between layers. I did not get the M&Ms in the end though.

Feeling.. Homesick

I'm working on the post of my AD but blogger is taking freaking long to upload the photos coupled with the slow network here .. Haiz ... And I have so many photos to upload!! Just have to be patient..

J has been posted to Jakarta for a business trip for 5 days and he left yesterday afternoon. Feeling lonely without him around and I had trouble sleeping last night. It didn't use to be so bad before we got married as I still had my family with me. I'm now staying with my MIL and SIL so I'm feeling pretty homesick without hubs around.. 4 more days and 3 more sleepless nights till he gets back. 

Hub's away ~~

This bed feels too big and empty without you. Faster come home baby.
