When my little prince meets my little princess

Have always updated the developments of my little prince charming - BB Josh so it created some interest to my little princess's mummy...so we decided let the little ones and have some fun. However, we didn't imagine that it ended with a little cat fight...haha.
When they first met, BB Josh just threw a ball directly at BB Clara's forehead and wanted to grab her. After a while, they decided to play on their own. At the end of the day, BB Clara didn't left the place without any revenge because she also ended up giving BB Josh a good grab which left him crying. But he didn't lose out as well because he also give her a good grab back. That's what happened when they first meet.

Here are the pictures:
Some update photos of the little prince - grown up quite a bit right?
As usual, he is such a TV addict.
Trying to get a shot of them together but little princess clara is so hyper and excited abt the toys.
Haiz, too bad. eyes blink.

Okie. Finally got a few shots of them together. Hopefully they can play together again when they grow up.

Inspirations

Someone forwarded the below email and I find it pretty meaningful. Hopefully, it can inspire you like it has inspire me since by nature, I am greedy and likes to complain.

If you think you are unhappy, look at them
If you think your salary is low, how about her?

If you think you don't have many friends.....
When you feel like giving up, think of this man
If you think you suffer in life, do you suffer as much as he does?
If you complain about your transport system, how about them?
If your society is unfair to you, how about her?
Are you still complaining?
Observe around you and be thankful for all that you have in this transitory lifetime.....
We are fortunate, we have much more than what we need to be content.
Let's try not to feed this endless cycle of consumerism and immorality in which this "modern and advanced" society forgets and ignores the other two thirds of our brothers and sisters.
Let us complain less and give more!
On top of the above, I also notice that there is a short segment on TV mobile called "Inspirations" and I took down the below quotes to inspire me:
- "I learnt that the best classroom is under the foot of an elderly person."
- "I learnt that if one person tell you "you make my day", it makes my day"
- "I learnt that to have a child sleep in your arms is the most peaceful thing in the world"
- "I learnt that money can't buy class."
- "I learnt that it is all the little things that make life so spectacular."
- "I learnt that if the lord didn't take 1 day to create everything. What makes me think I can?"

Mummy's Birthday

It was mummy's 60th birthday yesterday. To chinese, 60th birthday is deemed as a big achievement. However, our family do not believe in elaborate celebrations. We will usually just go for a simple dinner and have the usual cake cutting ceremony at night. Being the 60th birthday, I decided to give my mum a well-deserved holiday. So I took over the task of dinner preparations...since home-cooked food is the best, right?
Below are the dishes I came up with:
From this, what can i create?

I created my parents' favourite - Fried Vegetarian Oyster Omelette.

Almost all the ingredients for our 3 course dinner.

Clockwise starting from the top left: Wrapped golden mushrooms with ham, Cabbage Stew and Self-made egg with vegetables and king oyster mushrooms.


My sister's contribution of Mashed potato and carrots balls.

My simple way of thanking my mum.

Contradictions

Many times during my working hours, I wonder why the clock is moving at such a slow pace. Because it takes ages just for me to survive through till 630pm where I can knock off.

However, if you were to think on a day by day or month by month basis, you will be shock that how fast times has flies past without us knowing. Imagine not long ago we will still celebrating our Xmas, chinese new year and now is already March and we have already done with 1/4 of a year.

So is our time moving too fast or too slow? I wonder....

New skill

As everyone will know I am actually very free in my current job due to the economic situation. If you are wondering why aren't I more busy in creating more sales opportunity in this situation? The answer is my boss believe on reducing budget and projects in such times and as marketers, without $$ will be a huge handicap since we can do nothing without $$. So next qns will be what have you been doing during work then? Apart from surfing all the online news site, I have also been a huge supporter of facebook. Now, I am proud that I have improve my Photoshop skill. Since for the past week, I have been happily helping my colleague design an invite card for her son's upcoming first birthday.

Please have a look at the option I have created. Note, we will include images of her son which is currently not available.

So which one do you like?

My contributions to the ailing economy...

The initial purpose was just to collect the cheongsum that I purchase before the Chinese New Year.....See how long I took to collect our alterations. Anyway when I reach my favourite shop, I am surprise that there is hardly anyone there on a Friday night. It really show that our economy is actually ailing. However, on the other side, I always feel that the economy is ailing also because of us. If everyone of us tighten our belts and stop spending, how will our economy grow? But in times like this, we can't blame anyone right? Since it only seems right to be a little more careful in our spending.
After months of without any retail theraphy...actually only 2 months but it seem like ages...heehee, I did my part by contributing to the economy with the below purchases.

My purchases:
Me in my first cheongsum:
Wonder when I will have the occasion to wear it? Plus, it is skin tight that do not allow me to put on any weight.

Me in my new green chiffon dress. How do i look?

Totally twisted

Been hesitating whether to post this but i guess i also need a place to vent everything out. So please bear with me for being childish here or i might be even making the current situation worst.

As human many times, we choose what we want to believe and many times we missed out on a lot of other facts. To be misunderstood and to know that your true meaning have been twisted and went unappreciated, the pain and hurt is something that words cannot describe.

All I can say is that this episode really make me reflect how my actions affect people and maybe I just have to be more careful when dealing with individual. Maybe I am not that perfect friend but I definitely try my best to do what I can for my friends. It is never my intention to hurt or humiliate anyone and if I do ever hurt anyone out there or make you feel bad, I sincerely apologise for that. I always thought friends should understand each other. But maybe I might be wrong or what I believe never ever existed either.

Last Friday Night Out

After I left my previous job, I started this practise of hanging out with my ex-colleagues till the dawn of the next day. Many will ask what exactly do you guys do every Friday night? Aren't you tired about the lack of sleep? Aren't you too old for hang overs? The answers are we always go for nice dinner since everyone puts in so much effort in our respective jobs and so we certainly need a good dinner to reward ourself. Hence, we will usually go to someone's house for more games, charade or even movies. One of this place that I have frequently gone to sleep over on Friday is at Newton EuroAsia.

However, last Friday was the last time everyone of us go over for some good fun as the owner, who is my ex-colleague and now friend, is returning to her hometown, i.e. Philippines after 3 good years here. She invited us over for some good authentic Filipinos food and Wii. We also spend our time chit chatting with her and of cos gossipping abt who is the hottest guy in the office now. After all these, we still have energy to accompany her for Movie marathon of Valkyrie and K20. I am totally tired after all these especially it is my 36 hours away from home; with only 4 hrs of sleep and a face which is on the road of recovery from an allergy reactions.

Sometime i do wonder will I have been such great friend with her if I didn't choose to leave my previous job? Me being me, I will most probably choose to remain low profile and not hang out with them after work since I spend so much time with them already. Anyway, I am so going to miss her, all these fun and her bubbliness since I am not sure when it is the next time I am going to see her. But I am sure I will stay in touch with her.

Goodbye and take care, my dear Filipino friend.


P.s. more pixs can be found in my facebook
