Suddenly curious about how my life would be if I ain't doing what I'm doing now. Given a choice..I'd like to spend more time with my family. Work can be satisfying and self-fulfilling, but it is really starting to take a toll on my social life and me-time. The golden question strikes again...

if a complaint may cause another problem, is it worth the while? is it appropriate?

think before you act. be fair.

you can't please everyone. Period.

that will make me be proud of myself in 20 years' time?
that will put a smile on my face in 20 years' time?
that i should do that i will not live to regret in 20 years' time??

We'll always remember you, baby.

baby dora

during baby's growing up stage when her legs seemed too long for her body

the affectionate bunny who'll lick my fingers whenever i say "lick lick"


Photobucket
the confused bunny who has always thought that her food bowl is also her toilet - she used to be able to pee in the bowl..until her butt outgrown it.


Thanks for all the lovely memories.
Take care over at the rainbow bridge. :)

it takes courage to love..and to forgive.

i shall remain optimistic.

there's nowhere left to fall when you've reached the bottom.

it can't be bad all the time right? :)

Check out URA's plans to transform Jurong Gateway (new name for Jurong East >_<) and Jurong Lake into the biggest commercial hub outside the city..

Site plan: http://www.ura.gov.sg/pr/graphics/2008/pr08-38a1.pdf

Having lived in Jurong for all my life, it's good to see that there are plans to inject life into this kampong, but i can't help but wonder if this plan might be too ambitious?

Let's just keep our fingers crossed..

chanced upon marie digby while surfing on youtube..her pretty face caught my attention and i was held captivated by her beautiful voice after i clicked. while going through her videos, i found "unfold" and was really touched..it totally depicts how i feel and what i'd wanted to express in the "alien" entry. enjoy the beautiful song :)



what i can remember
is alot like water
trickling down a page
of the most beautiful colors
i can't quite put my
finger down on the moment
that i became like ... this

you see, i'm the bravest girl
you will ever come to meet
and yet i shrink down to nothing
at the thought of someone
really seeing me
i think my heart is wrapped around
and tangled up in winding weeds

but i don't wanna go on living
being so afraid of showing
someone else my.. imperfections
even though my feet are trembling
and every word i say comes stumbling
i will bare it all.. watch me unfold
unfold

these hands that i hold
behind my back are
bound and broken by my own doing
and i can't feel
anything, anymore
i need a touch to remind me
i'm still real..

my soul
it's dying to be free
i can't live the rest of my life
so guarded
it's up to me to choose..
what kind of life i lead.

cause i don't wanna go on living
being so afraid of showing
someone else my.. imperfections
even though my feet are trembling
and every word i say comes stumbling
i will bare it all.. watch me unfold
unfold

i will allow someone to love me
i will allow someone to love me...

love me.. love me...

3 months and 2 days after i got my driving license, i finally got to drive! drove the family to the ulu tuas area after dinner, it's my first time manipulating auto transmission and also my first time driving in the evening. it's quite scary as it's dark everywhere and vision isn't as good but the auto mode made it quite a breeze to drive.

as expected, got quite a few scoldings from dad. he told me there was a U-turn ahead but it turned out to be a roundabout. as it was really dark and i wasn't familiar with the road, i made a really abrupt turn which gave all of us (including myself) a shock. lol.

i'd also almost forgotten how to park! the tiny multi-storey carpark made the whole parking experience even more tricky. dad was very impatient, instructing me to turn here and there; mom tried to help by giving me her own set of instructions which made me more panicky. i'm thankful to sis for helping me to calm the both of them down, i guess she's the only one who truly understands how i feel cos she's been through all these as well.

i can't recall how i manage to place the car in the correct position, but i'm really glad i did it! despite all the naggings and scoldings, it was a fun drive! looking forward to the next one soon! :D
