I almost forgot…

today I attended 2 wedding ceremonies, Nic & Eva and Kevin & Chris.

Nic & Eva’s wedding is my most anticipated wedding ceremony that I had been before. a summer-garden theme wedding. it is definitely something different, something simple and yet the most lovely ceremony I had participated. there was no typical ‘heng-dai and ji-mui’ act, nor red packet collection during luncheon. it’s just simple greeting the bride, tea ceremony for both their parents and immediate relatives, exchange of marriage vow and end with a western style luncheon. I would rate this as the best wedding ceremony.

Kevin & Chris’s wedding is really extravagant. typical rich family holding a wedding ceremony but no doubt the food is great, the wine is smooth and the atmosphere is soothing with jazz band throughout whole nite. indeed the most exaggerated wedding dinner I had attended before.

with so much love in the air flowing around, I suddenly have this urge to write this emo post. I’m just a normal gal ok… and a normal gal like me has all the rights in the world to be emo bout her life.

it’s been quite a while since I last be a ‘receiver’. it doesn’t matter to receive in the sense of financial or emotion or even security. I’ve been a ‘full-time provider’ or perhaps a ‘self provider’ since I last broke off. you know… providing financial partially to my family, providing thoughts to family and friends, providing treats for myself, providing sympathy for myself. somehow this ‘provider’ role of mine has slowly taught me to become an independent gal. alrite…. an independent yet emo gal…

and I just realized that today I was given the chance to become the ‘receiver’. the honour of having someone picking me up from doorstep, accompanying me to wedding ceremonies, making sure I have my favourite dish on my plate and getting me out of awkward situations.

so what have I almost forgotten? I almost forgot the joy of being the ‘receiver’… and I just wanna say, I enjoyed today and thank you for letting me be the 'receiver' for the day :)

tententen!!!

today mark 101010 which only occur once in a 100 years. I am fortunate to be able to witness and enjoy this special date with my family and friends.

it was suppose to be a very significant date for Jen, Kent & me which we had set half year ago. at first it illustrated quite a positive lead towards our tententen. but you know, life is full of shits… it never turn out as good as we always planned and in fact, it was quite disappointing. but it’s alrite, I’m sure she is just as devastated as me. despite the disappointment, you let me know ya gal, if I can offer any help in any way :)

so how is your 101010? I’m sure some take this chance to mark their big chapter of their life (their marriage…). for those with birthday that falls on 10th October, I’m sure this year is one special celebration too. some might even party all night long last night to countdown this special date or do something outrageous like base jumping!

mine? so far so great!

a month back, Jen spotted a newsletter from hooHA! about 101010 fun run. we thought since it’s just a fun run then why not. so we invited Kent too, just simply because so happen that we bumped him on the cyberspace. half way through, we all got kinda lazy to do the registration and all so we sort of decided to just forget bout it. but out of the blue, heard that Hoe was interested in the fun run too. Hoe? run? hhmmm… that’s something interesting :P so we finally decided to just do it. and yes, we did it this morning, it was quite dreadful to wake up so early (freaking early indeed, as it was at 645am) but it was definitely something different to do with my buddies on this special date. shall we do it again or more often, my buddies?

what’s the best remedy to cure an exhausted body after a worn-out weekend? what else… spa! last Thursday was mum’s birthday and since I couldn’t figure out what best present for her, I decided to treat her for a spa session (since I need it badly too hehehe…). instead of my usual spa parlour, I decided to try out the ‘Energy Day Spa Mont' Kiara’. it was my first time having spa session with my mum and undeniably a unique way to celebrate 101010 with her too.

let’s end this 101010 with some ‘ten’talizing happenings… enjoy life…

L.O.L.A (laugh out loud again...)

if you have been following my blog, I'm sure you had read something about me anticipated to lmao or rofl...

this Thursday, I'll be heading there again but this time with my buddies... and I would like to say thanks Kent for the kind treat...

the other time when I attended the stand up comedy, we ended the great nite at Hard Rock Cafe for a stuffed dinner. hhmmm... I wonder if this time it comes with the whole free package hahaha.... talk bout being greedy :P

can you smell what's cooking?

lately I’ve been trying to be a healthy person. yes, I did said ‘trying’ becoz sometimes I can’t help it but being unhealthy has its fun side too :P

I’ve been preparing power-pack breakfasts, light & easy lunches, low-calories dinners all by myself and for myself. as said, I don’t prepare every single meals but I’m already so proud of myself. if you know me well, I’m the kind of person that I rather not eat if you ask me to cook. but with all these simple to prepare recipes, I do enjoy preparing it (except when I was in a rush or overslept, I rather skip my meal than going thru the hassle).

here’s a few meals that I’d prepared… besides these, I’d also prepared smoked salmon with steam vege, tuna & green apple salad, miso soup with cube tofu and turkey ham California roll. I didn’t take picture of it becoz it didn’t look so presentable but of course still edible.

can’t wait to discover more simple recipes or invent some new recipes…
