Seeing the world through a grain of sand and heaven through a wild flower

Somewhere over the rainbow...

2007-06-21T15:00:58Z

Tears flowed down when u asked me to watch this....such beautiful voice. Such innocence....beautiful... =) Somewhere over e rainbow, i will find u waiting for me....

It came...it finally came!

2007-06-12T12:13:32Z

Finally got e letter that i have been waiting patiently for...finally got it...e first thing sis said to me when passing it to me is...congrats. =) I'm glad... i made it before e deadline. =) Ok, one thing down. Now baking ambition.... a baby step before i start my leap... =)

Cant stop and aint gonna stop...

2007-06-09T07:04:01Z

Fri was non stop sitting, drinking n eating. No kidding....first up was tea at a quaint teahouse. Decor was tastefully done up and they serve a wide range of tea.

My order..French Rose Tea....pretty aint it?

His chinese tea...which i cant remember what it was called...

Apple cake....too much cinnamon n too few slices of apple!!!! hahaha but not bad la.

Dinner's time was approaching and off we went. Tada....up e hills to this bungalow.. and up this flight of stairs...haha oh finally a shot of me with my flowers. =P

Yeah we are e first customers again!! Yippiez....such peace. =) really, it's much appreciated before the crowd starting coming in...

No celebration is complete without wine...or champagne though i wasnt feeling great with e sore throat. But tada...my glass of Moet and Chandon Imperial Brut Rose! Can u see e reflection on my knife? haha....ya trying to be artistic la..haha

Home made fuccacia bread.... =) courtesy of the restaurant...

Appetizers are Hokkaido Scallops and Double Baked King Crab Souffle

Mains are Beef Tenderloin and Roasted Duckling... both are good. Yes, so good......

Desserts are Creme Brulee with chempadek and mint ice cream and Mango and Strawberry Millefeuille =)

Of cos, some unhappy thing happened but the ending was a perfect ending. =) HAHA...be it an oversight or what, it's still a good ending. =) Yippiez....oh this meal broke all records...haha in terms of amt of food n e cost. HAHA=P

Broke the record for dining? I sure did....

2007-06-09T07:01:30Z

The following posts shall narrate the food consumed over these few days..which broke any record i ever had for dining. Fine dining maybe..haha =) But I had fun and i'm still continuing my food session.....till end of this month! Yippiez... i am happy.. =) First up, italian food.

Dinner was with a dear friend who got confused on where to meet. He actually went to my office building when i was waiting somewhere else. HAHA...nevertheless, we did meet and we adjourned to dinner place. =) Tada....the quaint little italian restaurant. Went there some time ago and i did enjoy myself there. It was empty when we reached...and I liked it then. I love restaurants when they are empty and quiet. But that bliss lasted only for a short while before tons of foreigners flocked in. We felt very out of place...as we were the only chinese in the restaurant. Oh well...

Starters was this octopus on feta cheese and tomato. I'm no fan of octopus or squid...so after taking shoots of it, my dining partner happily took my share as well. Apparently it was crunchy and super good. Still, i'm not tempted.

Our mains include braised cod fillet and the 8 hours cooked lamb rack. Normally, I wont take lamb..but this place has great lamb! =)

Desserts are panna cotta and semi-freddo. Did i mention they are so good? I mean i normally do not like panna cotta but geez, i happily gobbled down this dessert here...so good and so smooth. Literally melts in my mouth. Not only that, the combination of vanilla paste with a dash of black pepper sprinkled over the dessert is so good! =) Ya i love drooling over desserts....after half a yr of hiatus, i am going back to trying out new food at new places. In fact, i've shortlisted 3 places already....MUAHAHAHA =)

Great food, great company.... to sum it all, a great night indeed =)

Flowers = impractical? Yes... but I STILL LOVE THEM!!!

2007-06-09T05:36:51Z

First time ever, i received such a huge bouquet...in total, 2X roses delivered to my office. nope it's not from the person i pestered e roses for....e sender has left the name out but I could guess...haha =) I'm ho smart ah... but it was a sweet thing to do. Timing was perfect cos i stepped out of office to go to e ladies n saw this guy with this bouquet. He looked lost...and he asked me where this place was and when i saw my name staring back at me on e delivery note, i said...erm this is me. HAHA he laughed...he couldnt believe e perfect timing either. So i tried to bring it into office quietly....but haha soon, everyone was exclaiming..wah..so pretty. haha.. oh well. Pretty aint it? So touched....but i will continue to hound my friend till he delivers his promises! HAHAHHAHAH notice how the colour changes under various environments? oh 2nd pix is my table...haha pretty aint it?

Second bouquet is my fav flower in my fav colour (among those available in singapore).... purple calla lilies. =) HAHAHA...instead of being wrapped with papers, it is wrapped with leaves. Brilliant... it's a star shaped!! very beautiful la... i think it's pretty. this bouquet can stand on its own without any vases or stuff wor. =)

Me in my most unglam tshirt...going to bed after e long day and i wasnt feeling well...and sis said to take this shoot. haha.. =P so u can admire e whole bouquet from this angle. =)

At times like this, i pretty much get to choose the places to dine. So where did i visit over these days? haha.. u will find out.. =)

Before i end, I STILL WANT MY FLOWERS FROM YOU!!!!! hahaha.. =) Will take nicer pixs of myself with e flowers soon...haha =P

Utmost bliss...

2007-06-07T08:28:03Z

MUACKS MUACKS....haha =) I will write abt e bliss when i have time...

A BIG THANK YOU....=)

At times, I may have failed but....

2007-06-04T06:06:35Z

to friends that i care abt (most not aware of the existence of this blog and intend to keep it that way but still goes out to them):

regardless of what it is, it is important not to have regrets n to be happy. I carry each of you in my heart.... though i may not be anywhere near. Be it a call or an sms, i will try my best to be a friend. I only say, jiayou. Each of us walk a tough journey...be it our work, our love or our family.... each of us have our own problems. It is just a matter of facing the problem and to find a solution to it. At the end of the day, what matters e most is that the solution should be something u can take accountability for and be true to urself.

Currently, my problems are happy problems... i know that. I mean how things have worked out for me on my job area, it's e best ever. I mean, young boy is very happy for me and i know I am glad about it as well. Love may still be a blank but at least I am happy. Be it my indulgence, be it my obsession, i am having fun. =) Friends come and go... i am used to it.. I don't feel anything strong about it like before anymore. The meaning of letting go has finally dawned upon me after graduation. I miss my uni pals so much...most are overseas. I miss e days we will sit there n chat till e wee hours...i miss our potluck days... i miss friday nights at e clubs in town...i miss throwing snow at each other... i miss dragging my air bed to e grass n sitting there to sunbathe together.. but after i returned, i know that they are in my heart though keeping in touch is hard. Now n then, i receive postcards, emails from them....glad to know they are doing fine. I wish them well.....when i cried my heart out on e day i left my uni, i know i have to let go....... my best pal from uni refused to send me off cos she doesnt wan to say goodbye.... but frens forced her to come say goodbye..she did. I never let her leave my heart n she will always be there. Someday, we will meet again....i know this.

My beloved friends, jiayou....just remember that u r not alone..... no, i'm not being emotional on a monday. i wan to tell people that matter to me that i'm besides them cos things are happening all at one go and i'm trying my best to get a grasp of everything n be e fren to all. I may not have been e perfect friend but in all ways, i try to be a friend to you. Jiayou n i hope to see u smile once again. to friends that i have lose sight of...i only wish them well. To friends who will remain my friends for a long time to come, dun give up on me. =)

Love,
me.....

ps: really, i'm not feeling down. =) I'm still a happy gal... but i juz hope people ard me be happy.

Jump jump jump...he jumped into my heart...

2007-06-03T12:21:34Z

night came n we made our way to the max pavilion. =) haha.. mayday concert though i cant say i know a lot of their songs but i love their stage presence. =) I lost my voice by the end of e concert screaming: GUAI SHOU, MARRY ME PLS....then the rest kept scolding me...saying me girl.. it should be...GUAI SHOU, QU WO BA...and not GUAI SHOU, JIA GE WO BA.. =P someone sitting behind us joined me in screaming guai shou at one point.. haha =P presenting e concert goers first... mag, sis, xin, lyon and me of cos =) this yr, the colour was not apparent...actually, supposed to be in red la...that's why 3 of us are in red or shades of red. =) oh cos, e concert goers who were screaming encore.... =)

Now, presenting the concert....ah my guai shou..why wont he marry me? WAILS....haha... but of cos, i had a great time plus my phone rang with something... keke showed mag n she laughed. HAHA =) fun fun...heh...i love such fun. it's really an ah beng and ah lian concert but man, it was fun. I look forward to next yr's concert...... =) one song made me sad.....while listening to it, i felt like i was going to cry. But gosh...with so many people, no way! haha...continued jumping....masa is pretty talented too. =) but erm he's not cute...how could that bunch of guys shouted for him? couldnt understand...

my wkend ended with...................

anyway, some photos to mark this day..... super unglam pixs are not uploaded and they would be locked away for the safety of the parties involved. =)

The night before...preparation begins...e tang yuan and e beauty preparation.. =P haha he can be unglam since not many people know of this blog existence. keke...

Morning beckons and we have adjourned to bro's new place to get ready ( yes i was still in my shorts) but changed once relatives started arriving. We took over a room to rest and look at e exhausted helpers.

Rushed to the hotel n presented e gifts to e helpers (was too busy after this that i didnt take pixs of e gals)

E after shots of dinner when we all started posing like idiots...

My favourite shot of the entire dinner... =) me with e flower gal n page boy =) E flower gal was holding on to her bottle n refused to give it to anyone n to walk down e red carpet. Sis told me to let her carry e bottle...i refused. Went over and asked her...and she did give me her bottle and she smiled at me. HAHA....sis said e gal must like me. Of cos... keke...then as they walked down e aisle, told them to keep smiling for me. E page boy was so cute..he would run n hug me. adore them...though they make me run around like mad... they are still cute. =)

proof that i'm an alcoholic...haha kidding...didnt drink that much but becos didnt eat much so..erm gone case.

hahaha....see how radiant i look. (I'm kidding...lack of sleep..everyone could tell) but quite funny..haha =)

In all, it ended with smiles on everyone's face. Ok, i'm still very tired... i need to sleep lots to catch up on my sleep. Think it has been for a month.... =(

E road down the red carpet...

2007-05-28T11:48:30Z

Expressing my gratitude to all...

Firstly, thank lyon for accompanying me since Sat to collect e flowers, preparing of the tang yuan (yes we actually sat there to roll them and i kenna insulted all e way), waking up early to help in the cooking of food, taking the photos, and of cos, to hold on to me when i was a gone case again.

Secondly, thank sy for helping in making e dough of tang yuan..helping out during the tea ceremony, helping out as e receptionist and to calm me down as well. Of cos, she insisted that i flirted when i was drunk but i disagree. =)

Thirdly, thank sc for coming at 6am to be e videographer of e day, to help in taking pixs, n drinking so much. HAHA

Fourthly, thanks to yx n gie n siew for being receptionist too. Of cos, to solve e problem when so many unexpected guests turned up.

Of cos, to my sis...kudos to her for being e great sis n all e help n of cos to bring me home..and of cos to e hotel staff for great help! =)

Though it is not mine, i had great fun during e finale part. Why? haha...imagine, u being with ur frens... finishing up e wines that were left half opened...and then pretending to be flower gals, couples and walking down e red carpet n throwing flower petals...playing a spastic game called: Ba Xian Guo Hai (8 immortals crossing e sea), dancing, kissing n licking, slut dancing and taking of cos the most unglam photos ever with people lying on e chairs. Yes a tad unglam while hotel staff were clearing up, we were making a bigger mess than ever. Yet all in all, that was fun...with more than 80% gone case, it was a great cause to pop the champagne n cheers!

i'm glad that everyone was happy at e end, in particular, i'm very happy with how e video turned out cos i had such great trouble trying to think of the wedding story.....and most people are nursing their hangovers. HAHAHA =) Oh, lots of leftover alcohol...haha *shudder*

I can only say thank u... but i'm truly grateful n i hope each one loves e gift prepared. It's prepared with u in mind.....THANK YOU!

My sanity flees

2007-05-24T02:26:23Z

Slowly losing it....every single day, every moment, my phone rings with calls from people I dun really wan to talk to...i'm losing it by freaking out so early this morning as well. I was worrying abt things all e way to work...worried abt it until i check e spreadsheet and i even had to get my colleagues to check for me.. it's a sign. I'm losing it... i'm juz hanging on till sunday.

i cant make up my mind too...french, australian, italian, japanese or chinese? Cant decide....still cant decide.... =P

today's checklist - ALCOHOL and GIFTS and SPEECH and Programme =) sis looked at me and said... if all else fails, u r going up to talk. ME?? nani?? my mandarin sucks lor...cos we got someone doing e english bit liao...*faintz*

Lost in time...

2007-05-22T13:57:46Z

Visited the hometown for the first half of e dinner....hmm..what can i say? it's like singapore during the old days. Not kidding.. =) It's quite interesting but i do miss skyscapers. Mainly becos I also miss being able to sms people...*controlled my sms habit...* Anyway, since it's a small little town with nothing much to do or to sightsee with our limited time there, i've limited pixs too. Enjoy,,,e pink dumpling is very yummy. interestingly, it is not sold anywhere in singapore. But Yummy enough.... i like.

tml i got to pay $4XX for payment of gifts for some of e helpers...yes, i am thankful for their help one. SO yes I will buy them things to say thank you. the person has kindly agreed to deliver them to office for me.....that means i need to carry all of them home too. ROAR...heavy. I've personally picked out gifts for my guy helpers too... ah pa is getting something from me. Something one of a kind too *wink* and another fren is getting something imported from Japan that he would like I hope. =) As for e ladies helpers.... i will take a photo of them with their gifts on that day. =) Not something new but haha i am a firm believer in those. =) Yeah i can post e pixs after that...all e happy people with their gifts!

~ Is it because u are so used to me or is it because u truly enjoy my company? I wonder...i hope it is the latter. But thank u.....ur smses have been keeping me happy during this period. I hope 2 wks from now, u will still remember what i told u....~

Gambatte.... just 5 more days... GAMBATTE!!!!! I am still feeling super tired...super super tired. Can someone pack him up in e gift box and present him to me on a day in June? HAHAHAHAHA i've gone mad.......

I thank God for you and you and you....

2007-05-22T08:44:14Z

Upon switching on my phone yest, a friend sent me an sms saying: Welcome back to Singapore. Very touched...

Thanks for all e help rendered.....frens are offering to help me buy the food etc... very touched. Thanks! Colleagues are also helping with e seating arrangements etc.... colleagues are so funny...upon me reaching, 2 of them came to me and said: we miss u ah!! cos we got no one to tease.. -_-" my colleagues...really make me laugh. =P

Juz ended a food session at my desk area cos my neighbour bought us food.....time to fine tune e speech now

Mood swings are fatal...

2007-05-17T01:18:22Z

some of u would know that i'm currently feeling mega disgruntled..haha =P but in all, i'm surviving. It be all over next wkend *skips with joy* i think colleagues were shocked yest too..hahahaha... juz couldnt control them any further.

After which, MAYDAY concert, another cupcake class by another lady (she is trained in my dream school), a chocolate class, a french and japanese pastry class...and of cos, a very special day. =) HAHAHAHA... i'm super excited abt my classes. =) it's fun... i be experimenting the macarons very soon... let's hope i can make other flavours too. =)

to personnel involved, WED, 23 MAY, 730pm!!! dun forget...

back to work...and my neighbour is on leave...so quiet. =P

It has to be you...

2007-05-13T13:20:26Z

Presenting my macaron lessons..... =) So tedious to make them....frankly, not sure if it's really worth the effort when they are available over the counter. =) It doesnt help that i was up till 5am this morning.... i had problem trying to concentrate...it has been a while since i slept so late...and i was really stoned. 5am, i could hear the birds chirping... 5am, i could hear the rustling of the leaves.....5am, i could hear e cars driving past amidst e silence... haha 5am, i could hear my heart calling out.. =)

Anyway, vanilla, chocolate, hazelnut and coffee macarons. =) Enjoy the pixs..

SO many taitais in my class....i have concluded that taitais really do enjoy baking a lot. And i cannot comprehend how all of them know each other...erm do all taitais join a club or what? In any case, it's interesting to see how big their diamond rings are....some are decked in bling from head to toe...then sashaying in their chanel, gucci bags... best part, a lot of them are pregnant. In any case, it's fun la... i also realised many lawyers are inspired to bake..haha all wan to be like e chefs. Most of the singaporean restaurants and pastries shops are mainly lawyers or finance people who decided to pursue their passion...after making tons of money. When is it my turn? WAils...

Oh she said today: Press e macarons gently but firmly....use that same approach towards man as well! Viola...e words of wisdom for today! =)

LALA... After e wedding... i will attempt my cupcakes n these as well. =) Till then..enjoy e pixs!!! Presentation is nowhere near completed n it's due for presentation on tues.. HAHHAHAHA....now, to rest...n hope to sleep early today! =)

Caught this too over e wkend and this serves up a French take and rendering on a Hollywood screenplay, resulting in a fluffy, delightful, romantic comedy that most of us would enjoy. It is not a normal French movie...and u will understand when u watch it. It is enjoyable to catch this show n don't bother to dwell too much on its take on love and relationship. Just sit back and enjoy. Best of all, watch it with a date and it is the best of both world.s =)

Madness spree...

2007-05-12T05:24:11Z

E final lap before e madness all begin....settled quite a fair bit of the hotel. Finally chose my photographer (sis actually asked me if it is becos he's cute -_-" i got so shallow meh? ROAR)

Seating plan is a major pain in e ass....we're trying our best to do that up.... it's not easy. Trust me..... Wedding itself is a pain in e ass. ROAR.

My checklist to be cleared:
Music for the march in, first dish n champagne pouring
Music cd for e night
Seating arrangement
Finalisation of photo montage
Preparing the speech
Settling the helpers matters and transportation for e day
briefing session for all jie meis, xiong dis
Rehearsal for all involved personnel

During e peaceful friday night, ur name appeared as e sender of an sms. I was surprisingly delighted but ur contents made me a bit sad. But i still replied n i missed all ur calls. Not deliberate but my phone was on silent and i was busy playing (heh heh). Strangely, u were still up at such an unearthly hour. Today, u finally managed to speak to me but I couldnt chat for long cos my phone was ringing with calls from hotel, designer, photographer... roar. Not happy cos we trying to amend some stuff from e hotel end and a lot of negotiation. Sighz...mafan. I think this will carry on for e entire day. In any case, i hope u do feel better. It's not e best time to try to talk to me now cos my mind is whirled with nothing but e upcoming stuff. Only when that is all over, I cant really focus on anyone or anything else. I can only try to listen.....keep smiling!

Oh btw, i managed to get e hotel to give me more VIP tables...HAHAHA so my sis n i along with our frens will be seated at e VIP table. Aint we brilliant? HOHOHO... we wont look so pathetic... keke...maciam we are juz helpers... so..yippiez! We get pretty plates n pretty tables! * curtsy* bought a dress but i'm thinking...hahahahahaha there's another dress that I really like but juz that it needs alteration and e price. Hmm.. but it's so pretty. Sis would not be happy...hahahahaha let me think abt it. =)

Ok, time to get ready. Have a great wkend... btw dun forget it's Mother's Day tomolo! Another reason to be happy.. i'm attending another cooking class!! *skips with joy*

Up, up and away....

2007-05-09T14:03:58Z

Various things that make me smile for today.

Conversation with PPC:
Me: Hey, do u know the trademark soft toys - XXXXXX and XXXXXX?
PPC: Yes
Me: YOU REALLY DO? wow i'm impressed...erm can help me buy if u see a nice one?
PPC: Ok will try

*Skips in joy* Yippiez.... if i do get them, i give PPC a big treat!

Favourite words that were said to me today: Why do you keep disappearing? I wan to talk to you.......

Favourite phrase of American Team: Why is it not possible? It is possible la.... it is a plausible plan.

Like this pix, i hope that u can feel the love in this world. Be happy people! =) Back to the seating plan.....

Why do women shop alone?

2007-05-09T13:40:07Z

I think this is cute...

Dun break up with me....your Goodbye will shatter my world

2007-05-08T13:41:00Z

To a very dear fren (*wink* u met me for lunch today)

I wont say what it is about but juz say I am very happy for you. I like times like today... it felt like such a long while ago when it really wasnt that long... =) Thank you for your concern in me too... i am touched. =P I look forward to more moments like today. =) Thoroughly enjoyable...

E picture that caught my eye today...

Like this pix, remember, my heart is fragile...so is my world. Dun ever break up with me as a friend, as a lover, as family.... u dun need to tell me u love me but juz drop gentle reminders that u are there with me. =)

Btw, i don't dislike you... not one bit at all.. just be more understanding and i'm sure we will both end up as good friends one day. You are someone of a few words.. yet somehow through your tiny actions and words, i know you care. Thank you! I am ashamed to even say that you are aware of my happenings more than I even care about yours....but thank you. =) Some day, i hope you would stop staring at me like you wan to kill me la....hahahahahahaha =P

Bliss is finding time for yourself.....Bliss is knowing that someday you will get to where you want to be...Bliss is knowing that people do appreciate.. Finally, Bliss is sitting among the quiet environment n talking about anything under the sun with you. =)

The kind souls..

2007-05-07T15:36:37Z

The honour that will be kept..

Caught 2 movies yet the buzz surrounding all the blockbuster was not the one that shone. In fact, it was the Japanese movie, Love and Honour starring Takuya Kimura that was outstanding. Of cos, it does not appeal to mainstream audience cos of its pace. But that is where the beauty lies. Do not expect tons of bloodshed or stuff showcasing samurai skills. In fact, this show is akin to Japanese cuisine, to be delicately consumed and to admire the very line: Simplicity is key.

The story plot is obvious from its title....it is about the love for one's family and the need to uphold family honour. This movie is narrated like a poem and to be slowly appreciated by its audience. The leads were brilliant in their roles...as the fallen Samurai and the dedicated wife. But i cant simply ignore the role of the humble loyal servant Tokuhei! I mean, he's so funny n i adore him! I am trying e name out on my xiaohei but he doesnt seem to respond... -_-"

Spiderman3......somehow i felt that it wasnt that exciting. It was a tad draggy...and the element about the alien symbiote falling from the skies and landing near the superhero was a bit lame. It was disappointing in how Venom was portrayed. The overall feeling was it was rushing to tell the story of Venom...without giving this character the due credit to develop its full ability. I am pretty sure since the alien symbiote lives off its host, Venom should have been able to dish out whatever moves Spiderman was capable of and Spiderman should have problem countering it. Yet somehow it all seemed such a breeze. Maybe, too much in too short time. Venom should have been a major villian yet somehow the love element took centre stage. Oh of cos why did my poor harry got disfigured n had to die? ROAR.... not happy... haha...

With the spiderman3, it brings about the blockbuster invasion for summer. Coming up are Ocean 13, Pirates of the Carribean and Shrek. Sequeals often fail to live up to their name.. but yet we all await eagerly. One show that I'm waiting very impatiently is for harry Potter! =) Yippiez final book be out this yr too....the books get thicker and thicker but once u read it, u cant bring urself to stop reading it! =)

Oh chasing kids is no mean feat. Settled the outfits for the flower gals and page boys....heh heh.. =P They are so adorable yet they scream murder. Their wailing, their screaming....and my god, their running. ROAR... i've never chased so many kids around a shopping centre. I was so exhausted that i have new found respect for parents with many kids again. Ah my flower gal pix is on my hp but some of u saw e pix liao. Pretty eh? My sis was exclaiming abt how cute the gal is too...haha she's so cute. The boys didnt want to play with me...neither did they wan to try e clothes on. I told my sis...the boys reject me...she replied: that's e story of your life. haha...boys that like you are most likely gay.. ROAR what sort of rubbish??!!!?? -_-" dun say u agree... i will PIAK you !

Turkish dinner was pretty alright... red lentil soup (super thick n overwhelming), chef plate (the kebab style), cod fish (too sour for my liking), rice pudding (similar to creme brulee except there are rice within) and chocolate pudding (the aftertaste of the chocolate is superb as it lingers in the mouth). But generally, i'm not a huge fan. HAHA... i had better turkish food =P

This is what happens during ur meal when ur name is on the wedding invitation... ur phone gets call from people u have never met...

Oh did i mention that Leslie Kee's exhibition was superb?!? =) yeah it's a congregation of tons of gays but i enjoyed it. haha e eye candy of e local sportsmen doing the advert for Gillette.....Drool..why dun i know any of the dragon boat or water polo boys? ROAR...

Just got home from badminton...and i saw letters that had Government Service stamped. I got worried...upon opening, haha it is my invitation to get my award. HAHAHAHAHA...HAHAHAHA... ROTFL...there's really an award ceremony...btw to all relevant parties, I've GOT THE CHEQUE!!! =)
