Weekend Trailwalk

For a change, Dear and I decided to go outdoors for the weekends. (Actually we wanted to go long ago but something always cropped up.) We wanted to go for the trail walk which extends from Alexandra to Mt. Faber on Saturday but the plan was futher postponed again due to the rain. Instead, we went to the Keppel Bay and Mt Faber walk walk.

We finally managed to go for the trail walk on Sunday. A nice idea for family outings. I felt so energised with the fresh air, lush greenery and great scenery surrounding me. One of the main reason of the walk was to visit the Henderson Waves. Interesting structure. The top "waves" serve as a shelter space but the bottom "waves" is kind of un-utilised. If only some function can be added to it. Hmmm....

I think I walked almost 7km on Sunday. Almost had to walk 10km when Dear wanted to walk back to Alexandra Arch where we parked our car!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thank god Dear said he would walk back himself and I could just wait for him to drive the car to Henderson Waves. While waiting, I managed to take some night pictures of the waves. Cool.

Weekend dates spent outdoors are great. No need to spend too much money and we can stay slim and fit while spending time with your loved ones. Nice. Surprisingly, my legs are not aching. Hee.

Is Monogamy non-existent?

Looking at the failed relationships that my girlfriends had recently, I cannot help but feel insecure.

We used to think only good-looking guys have the capability of straying. Now, even the most down-to-earth-looking guys can be the most experienced Casanovas and liars. What is this world coming to? Girls (you know who you are), don't bother to look for cuties anymore. Instead, get a rich man. If you are ever cheated or forsaken by one of those bastards *touchwood*, you may be dug emotionally but your full pockets might be of some consolation.

If a boyfriend cheats, the most common advice you will hear from the friends is, “Bastard! Forget about him! Find a better one!”

If a boyfriend cheats and wants to reconcile, it will be, “Forget about giving him a chance! Dog will always eat shit. You will just give him another chance to cheat on you.”

Easy said. But when it comes to matters of the heart, it is not as easy as said.

If such a scenario ever befalls on me, I think I will give him another chance. Call me a risk-taker. Or a fool.

Perhaps he is relenting as he is too egoistic to see me with a new guy. Or he is not used to not having me around. Maybe he feels that I am still better than that other girl. Or perhaps he really loves me and is willing to change for the better.

There are a lot of possibilities.

However, to give up a relationship that has lasted for so long seems just impossible. Although I know there is a chance that the reconciliation may be fruitless eventually, I am still not willing to forsake the possibility that there may be a happy ending to this relationship. If I really love him and I can see that he still loves me and is really sincere about changing and committing, I guess I should give him or us another chance. Be it that he cheats on me again, at least I tried and I can really let go and move on for I am sure that he cannot be trusted anymore.

But will every man stray? To marry a man who will never let you face such situations is a wish every girl hopes for. But is there really such a man?

Is monogamy really non-existent in relationships? Doesn’t love grow fonder with time? Or a relationship simply needs a third party to add thrill and challenge to it? A relationship that has braved through adultery will turn out to be a stronger one?

To quote Sicong, “Love is a gamble.”

I guess I am a hard-core gambler when it comes to relationships.

I took the gamble by accepting Dear. And it is paying off now.

But will my bet be a sure win?”

I guess time will tell. With proper handling and commitment, it will eventually be one.

I hope.

*cross fingers*

Happy 30th Month Anniversary!!!!!

At the strike of 12, I called Dear to send him my sweet greetings.

"Dear!!! Happy 30th Month!!!!!"

Guess what.

He was shitting in the toilet.

Again as usual.

GREEEEAAAATTTT!!!!!!

So lomantic indeed.

Feeling better...

After chatting with a long-lost aki friend of mine, I felt so much better.

I may not be as lousy as I thought.

Way to go, Girl!!!!!!!!!!!!

加油! 加油!! 加油!!!

Beware of this China-Man...

Instead of having dinner on the usual fridays, the Pinkies decided to have dinner at the Shokudo@Raffles City on a Thursday night instead. It was also meant as a birthday celebration for Junie.

It was the usual stuffs. Eating...Chatting...Taking pictures...(to be uploaded soon)

However, a peculiar incident took place when we were about to leave.

A strange China man approached Huijun and said some strange things to her.

I recalled from some emails that there was a China man who tried to hypnotise woman. To rob or rape them, I guess.

So, I decided to walk to Huijun and managed to pull her away from him.

We saw this man approaching another angmoh man while we were on the way to the toilet.

Wonder what he was up to man.

Most probably up to no good.

So guys, be you female or male, be careful when you ever see such a guy. Don't bother to continue the conversation and quickly walk away from him. It does not pay to be helpful at times.

New Favicon!!!

With credits to Sandy, I realised that I can create my own favicon!!!!!!

CCCCOOOOOOOOOOLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!!!!!

My new favicon nice?

I created 2 more.

Shall flaunt this current one for a while more before I change.

Hee....

P.S. : Favicon is the icon that you see on the address bar and apparently it can't be viewed with Internet Explorer or Maxthon.

1:06 PM.

Back on track again....

Finally, I have figured out what beholds for me in the future.

Starting 1st July, I shall be working in DPA for half a year before I head back to my most-dreaded-place to complete my Masters. I am determined to do it well this time round, no matter what. I shall even forsake my tuitions if I have to. I just have to be a poor student financially in order to do well academically. I have enough of screwing up my designs. I shall get an A this time, my first and last A.

After graduation, I will be officially stepping into the 2nd quarter of my life with me aging at twenty six. I shall find a job, most probably going back to DPA as it offers the highest pay in the industry now. Money is the key driving force now. Interest can come later. I seriously need to save alot of money for these 2 years.

Simply because, I will be getting my new flat in 2 years' time, i.e. 2010. That means, I got to save up enough money for my wedding, honeymoon and renovation. It is all about the letter M.
$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

But I have not been proposed yet. Duh. I guess in Singapore, getting a flat is equivalent to a proposal. And I was the one who suggested getting a flat. Well done. I proposed!!!! YEA!!!!!!

I intend to have my solemnisation and customary together. No dinner. I hate dinner. All the yum seng and rowdiness. No way man. Just a simple lunch affair. Yea, that shall be it. =)

Honeymoon in Europe, hopefully.

I shall be married at the age of 28.

二人世界 for another year before we have a family.

But to have kids at the age of 30? This is kind of worrying as I will be a 高龄产妇. OHHH NOOOOO!!!! Imagine when I am 50, my kid is only 20. I still have to work my ass off to support them to university. I may not even live to see my grandchildren!!!!!! This is so dreadful!!!!! I will be damn envious of Yumei when I am old and working.

Maybe I can't have children too. Who knows? I kept having this fear that I may have problems conceiving. Pessimism acting up again. Haiz.

The future is getting gloomy.

I will be Mrs. Lee in 2 years' time.

Duh.

What an uninspiring address.

Mrs. Lee.

Duh.

Miss. Hoh still sounds nicer.

D4 - Ice-cream sticks

Xiujiao and I were in the school hall.

There were students rehearsing modeling on the stage. St. John students probably.

Then I saw this notice on the board.

"Stand to win more ice creams!!! Just check the number indicated on your ice-cream stick after consumption. The biggest prize is 10,000,000 ice cream!!!!"

Rather ridiculous, I thought.

The weather was hot, so I thought I could have an ice-cream.

I had the shock of my life after I finished it.

The number "10,000,000" was indicated on the stick!!!!!!!

10,000,000!!!!!!

I was thrilled.

"Even if i sell each stick for just 10 cents, I can stil earn 1 million dollars! I will be rich!!!!"

But where am I going to store all these ice-creams?

Then we went to take a second look at the poster.

The last day of the promotion has expired!

Ahhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!

Another stupid dream.

D3 - Mr. Crocodile man

I just returned from a diving trip with Sandy (my primary school best friend who does not know how to dive), Mr. Crocodile man and his crew.

We were at Mr. Crocodile's house.

Suddenly, there was a commotion and all of us hurried out of the house.

Mr. Crocodile was rushed to the hospital. With him being able to walk by himself.

He saw his kids closed the door and that was his last sight of his children.

He then passed away due to the jellyfish sting during diving.

Suddenly we were in a hotel lobby.

Sandy and I were instructed to do something. Probably to book a conference room in the hotel.

We could not communicate with the receptionist.

Sandy and I had a quarrel.

We seemed to book the room in the end.

After booking, she stormed out to the hotel and waited for a cab across the road.

I followed her but stood on the other side of the road.

I turned my head away from her.

Next moment when I turned my head to look at her, she was in the driver seat of a car.

She signalled me to enter the car.

I got in.

And I woke up. What a strange and boring dream.

Msia Trip Part 1 - Cameron Highlands

Strawberry farm

The strawberries were not as sour as the Pinkies said. They also said that they cost damn expensive and reminded me not to pluck too many. Just pluck for the fun of it. However, when we were at the farm, the seller told us it was RM$3 per kg in Malay!!!! It is so freaking cheap!!! Thus, we decided to pluck a kilogram worth of strawberries. But when it was time to pay, that guy said it was actually RM$35!!!!! Freaking hell!!!!! It is either Dear who heard wrongly or that guy cheated us!!!! Argh...SG$17 for 1kg of strawberries!!!! Singapore sells even cheaper ones loh...argh!!!!

Rose Centre

RM$4 per entry for an adult. The exterior of the centre looks pretty un-extraordinnary but never judge a book by its cover. The centre stretches all the way to the hill top which we were too lazy to climb up to. Despite that, we still had our money spent worthwhile.

BOH Tea Plantation

The place that I have been looking for in the whole trip. The scenery was really nice but the tea was not that fantastic though. But the visit ended with a heavy downpour. Mood dampening indeed.

Msia Trip Part 2 - Kuala Lumpur

Day 3 - Shopping + Clubbing

Shopping is never enough. Furthermore we only had half a day to do it. Nonetheless, the results were fruitful.

As for clubbing, it was meant to be a chilling session at the Bed which was one of the featured hangout places in the Sex and the City drama. But it turned out to be an empty club without a single bed in sight. *yawnz* The rest of the night was simply bar-hopping. Thank god it was Ladies Night for me. I guess Zouk would be a better choice instead. In the end, we settled for Bar Club which had pretty interesting interior design.

Ready for shopping!!!!

The Big Red Chair in Bar Club

The aquarium which housed terrapins was found in the unisex toilet. Urinals are on the other side so the men can pee and admire the terrapins at the same time.

Day 4 - Hotel tour (Palace of Golden Horses)
All I can say is......
It is really a PALACE with LOTS of HORSES!!!!!
