found!

because i needed something to read while having supper, i decided to do some advance reading of Chapter 3 from "Saving Your Marriage Before It Starts" (sorry bee i will still read with you!)

One little bit of treasure i found:

"The most important characteristic of a marriageable person is the habit of happiness"

So true! Especially the word "habit". Because instead of endlessly searching for happiness, all we need to do is to BE happy!

just like the old days

my mum fetches me to work everyday now. and so each day begins with joy, because i know i am loved.

As I find myself drifting closer towards that very important "next stage" of my life, I realize that I haven't really stopped to ponder long and hard about the question of being ready for this commitment of a lifetime. Or maybe there's no need to ponder? Perhaps after my series of failed relationships, I've finally come to understand who I really am and what I really want out of a long term relationship. And maybe I've really found someone whom I can happily love and cherish for the rest of my life! :)

Crazy bamboo

> This was our new bamboo shoot that peeped out of the ground one Sunday morning. See it? So small and cute! Guess what... Within a week, it has grown to become as tall as me! That's like, over 20cm a day! We now officially have an alien in our garden.

Last minute lantern festival

We almost didn't make it! But glad we still managed to walk one round around our estate, and also got to chat with llyn gardens' Cat Woman, with her army of really gorgeous kitties!

Blogging in a taxi

Used to be rather horrified about the prospect of having kids, but maybe it's really just a phase after all!

...can't wait to go kite-flying again...

maisie

i have so much to be thankful for, not least of which is that the ordeal of trying to appeal for our cpf grant and our housing loan finally appears to be over! Thank God for keeping us safe!

and thanks to all the people at HDB who handled our case, for restoring our faith in our wonderful government!

Krabi '10

It's been a wonderful year for me and bee, and what better way to celebrate than to go for a sweet little vacation in krabi! what an awesome vacation it was. from turquoise blue waters, to complimentary birthday pancakes, to nostalgic massage parlours with old hokkien music... but nothing beats being able to experience all these with the loveliest girl in the wirl!
