I have never picture myself as a mother. You can imagine my surprise when I found out I was pregnant almost 9 moths ago.
After throwing up for 2 months during the first trimester, swimming/shopping during the 2nd trimester and getting the baby room ready during the 3rd trimester, I am now at week 37 waiting for my Princess to be due to full term.
As I am counting down to the day I finally pop... I have come to realize what a miraculous feeling it is for a little baby growing inside you to the point when you can feel her moving, kicking, stretching inside your tummy. =p It is indeed amazing how God has created every living thing around us.
Dear God,
I pray that the delivery will be short, smooth & possibly painless.
And that Baby will come out healthy & normal.
I pray this in Jesus name.
Amen!

Just recently, I read up forums about ways to get rid of pimples, blackheads, whiteheads and tiny bumps on my face and came across a particular Aspirin Mask that podders rave about.
The method is very simple:
However, my happiness was short lived. The following week, I applied the Aspirin Mask again...and ended up staying 1 night in the hospital. 0,o
Initially, I felt fine after applying the mask. Before I slept, I remembered i haven't cleaned my eyes. So I took a cotton bud and dip into water and clean the 'eye liner' area. The next thing I knew, my eye started feeling very itchy and within the next 15 minutes my eyes, lips, throat became swollen and my whole body was covered with rashes. And I had difficulty breathing. >.<
I was rushed to the hospital and was put on drip injected with some medication given a jab and spent the nite in the hospital. I was thinking what could have possibly caused such a reaction? And it only happened immediately after I cleaned my eye. I concluded that some crystal must have landed on top of my lashes and I pushed the crystals into my eyes while cleaning it.
The doctor asked me if I am allergic to any medication. I told him that I was allergic to a painkiller called 'Ibuprofen' and he told me that Aspirin was under the same family. My friend googled the 2 drugs and informed me that the content in Aspirin was a lot more than Ibuprofen. No wonder I had such adverse reaction.
Anyway lesson learnt. Always make sure we are not allergic to a product before trying...... I have to continue my hunt searching for another method to clear my pimples, blackheads, whiteheads and oil bumps...=(
The method is very simple:
- Purchase a box of Aspirin from a Pharmacy or Watson's. Yes, it is those regular aspirin for headache and fever.
- Mix 2 aspirin with water, cetaphil, aleo vera gel, etc. into a paste and apply it all over your face (avoid eye area) for ten minutes.
- Before you rinse of, remember to exfloliate your face before washing it off with water.
- My 3 headless pimples (those that feels lumpy and huge when you press it and takes weeks to recover) became significantly smaller.
- Tiny bumps and white heads on my face disappeared
- Blackheads were reduced

Another wonderful audition after Paul Potts.
I am soo touched with Susan's emotions when she sang the part '
'I had a dream my life would be, so diffferent from this hell I am living.'
I have never seen Simon looked so sweet and tender!!!. =p
She has taught us a very important lesson. Never judge a book by it's cover or we would miss the wonderful plot in it.
Susan, I am so glad you finally have the chance to show the world how good you are. Looking forward to your superb performance!!!! =D

Some people are able to work for their passion.
But most of us work for the sake of working and the salary that comes with it.
Just recently I watched a TV programme 'A Simple Life 2' featuring people who gave up their stable income for their passion. For instance, white collar workers giving up their stable and high salary job to open up a bakery/ making organic soap/ setting up online shop selling handicraft recreated using recycled materials, etc.
Perhaps I am inspired by this programme or perhaps I feel stressed at work. Recently, I have been thinking of going into organic farming or to become a food nutritionist or just drop everything to go to Japan to complete my language course. However, I have neither the qualification nor the experience for the first 2 thoughts. I think worst of all, I am not able to step out of my comfort zone to pursue any of it..............

Sometimes I wonder why we have to work so hard for...
Working 10-12hrs a day simply because we have so much work to clear.
My colleague doesn't want to take leave because she will suffer from depression (clearing back-log) after she comes back from leave
So why are we working so hard for?
To make ends meet?
To pay our bills?
Is it worth it????????
To the extend we have to give up on things we like to do due to lack of time.

Yesterday, I had to go to Mosque street for my spa treatment.
Previously when I stayed in Potong Pasir, I just needed to take the NE line from Potong Pasir Station (6 stops) to Chinatown Station.
Now that I stay at a place where there is no MRT yet. I decided to drive there.
I have been driving regularly since November last year. I will usually look for a normal parking lot. Unless that parallel lot is a straight in, I will usually avoid parking at parallel lots.
However, I was late for my appointment yesterday so I decided not to look for a nearby multi-storey car park. Thus, I drove 1 street away from MOsque street and found an empty parallel parking space (in between a van and a car) and parked at my 1st attempt successfully!!! I was so proud of myself. \(^o^)/
Hmmm, maybe I was just lucky. HAHAhahahaahahah!!!!!
Aiya, just realised I forgot to take a pic of my accomplishment using my lousy phone. Nevertheless, this is my Xiao Bai =p

Just recently, I received an email from my old friend.
"Have u been so busy that u totally abandoned your blog? Haven’t seen you updating 4 more than 2 months…what have u been busy with?'
Thanks Tina, I was really touched when you asked me those questions. Really didn't know that you read my blog. I thought I only have the few friends who read my blog.
I have been very busy with work lor ......
Plus, I have changed from a Sony Ericsson K800 to HTC Touch. The camera quality of HTC phone sucks big time until I never take anymore photos and thus no more photos to upload and talk about. =(
I am waiting for this new phone by Sony Ericsson. I hope the photo quality is as good as or even better than the K800 which I used to have. Hmm, I wonder if they have it in white or red. Or pink!!!! Wahahahahah =p

I do have some photos from my hubby's camera to upload. One of these days when I am free, will upload to share with all of you. =D

I am not a fan of locally produced movies, let alone spending money to watch it in a cinema. Due to the massive publicity and the nice soundtrack featured on TV, I decided to watch it when it opened yesterday on 29 February 2008.

Verdict
Setting: Not bad. The film brings out Singapore's Sights very nicely. I think foreigners may like to visit Singapore after watching it.
Plot: Corny, so so and rather predictable.
Language: I like the fact that English was spoken fluently and I enjoyed the Cantonese dialogues exchanged between Li Lin and her mum.
Cast: Nadya & Ananda were hot!!! =D........
Soundtrack: I LOVE it!!
On the whole, it is not a bad movie. I believe it'll be a long while before I step into the cinema to watch another local production.

Well, nowadays I am trying to improve my Japanese by learning how to sing Jap songs.
What is the cheapest way to learn how to sing a new song? Youtube of course. =p
Well, Flavor of Life is a pretty old song. The soundtrack of a Japanese TV series Meteor Garden or 花より男子2挿入歌.

Just recently I went o Party World and discovered to my surprise that they actually have original japanese sounds of Utada Hikaru, Every Little Thing & etc. =)
ありがとうと君に言われると
なんだか切ない
さようならの後も解けぬ魔法
淡くほろ苦い
The flavor of life...... The flavor of life......
友達でも恋人でもない中間地点で
収穫の時を夢見てる青いフルーツ
あと一歩が踏み出せないせいで
じれったいの何のってBaby
ありがとうと君に言われると
なんだか切ない
さようならの後も解けぬ魔法
淡くほろ苦い
The flavor of life...... The flavor of life......
甘いだけの誘い文句
味気のないTalk
そんなものには興味をそそられない
思い通りにいかない時だって
人生捨てたもんじゃないって
「どうしたの?」と
急に聞かれると
「ううん、何でもない」
さようならの後に消える笑顔
私らしくない
信じたいと願えば願うほど
なんだか切ない
「愛してるよ」よりも「大好き」の方が
君らしいんじゃない
The flavor of life…
忘れかけてた人の香りを
突然思い出す頃
降り積もる雪の白さをもっと
素直に喜びたいよ
ダイヤモンドより軟らかくて
温かな未来
手にしたいよ限りある時間を
君と過ごしたい
ありがとうと君に言われると
なんだか切ない
さようならの後も解けぬ魔法
淡くほろ苦い
The flavor of life......The flavor of life...

Just recently, I listened to a song which my friend sent me a long time ago Title: Unnamed Song. This composer is formerly one of the members of X-japan.
So I went to Youtube to check out this guy and found this song I'll be your Love. Surprisingly, this song is sung by one of the Pussycat Dolls' member Nicole Scherzinger.
This song is soooo beautiful!!!! Great melody, lyrics and singer too. Didn't know she could sing. =p
Enjoy......... =D

I'll be your love
I'll never make you feel, feel alone
If yesterday blindfolds your eyes
I'll bring you tomorrow
There's a time
You feel like you're lost
Feel the night will never end
Through the daybreak
It's hard to hold on
But there is tomorrow
Brings you to your senses
As the sun will make it's way
You'll make it there
To the place where reality and dreams
And love will be together
I'll keep the light from fading
If the clouds blind your way
And the wind sways your faith
I'll be your love, I'll be your light
I'll never make you feel, feel alone
If yesterday blindfolds your eyes
I'll bring you tomorrow
Let me see you smile
Don't you cry
Over the past
Some days might be gray
And dreary
Not easy to leave
To leave it behind
'Til the rain stops in silence
I'll be there to hold your heart
I'll be with you
'Til you find the reason for love
We take it for granted
We'll keep the time from fading
''cause the world is here to stay
Your hope is deeper than pain
I'll be your love, I'll be your light
I'll never make you feel, feel alone
If yesterday blindfolds your eyes
I'll bring you tomorrow
If you would believe
Believe in the world
A vision of love
And the strength inside your heart
You'll find a way
I'll be your love, I'll be your light
I'll never make you feel, feel alone
If yesterday blindfolds your eyes
I'll bring you tomorrow
I'll be your love, I'll be your light
I'll never make you feel, feel alone
I'll never make you feel, feel alone
