Feeling so much better!

A few things had happened in the last few weeks. Emotionally drained. My physical discomfort didn’t help.


Some of which, I got to share, to trash things out. Some of which I realized that it is better to leave them as it is…


I have made the choice.

Visited the Specialist

Another round of X-rays taken. Think the lot that I brought along is useless..

Pain killers given. Physiotherapy appointment made. What’s next. Wait.

I am supposed to go back for a follow up 3 months later. Should the pain stays, MRI will be arranged.

Cross my fingers that everything is gonna be alright…for now, I am desperately feeding my bones with calcium(suspected that I am overdosing myself with all the goodies..haha)

No Chance

She lost that last chance to her low EQ, childishless and hyper sensitive self.


I received a "sarcastic remark" from giving her a second chance. I anticipated her atttitude or reply but well...it's a principle thing. I had done the same for the group but at the end of it I realised that they are just not worth it.


What did I learn?


I grow. I learnt. I move on. I learnt to appreciate things that are dearer to me.


Oh ya! Thank you for talking some sense into me. I will truly let go now. Really.

explaination needed?

To explain or not to? But seriously, is there a need to? Will your clarification be accepted? Preconception/Misinterpretation/Personality difference has already drawn the line...


What is your take on this?

when?

Suddenly, I was overcome with sadness as I watched them walk away...when will I get to see them again? Even before they disappeared from my sight, I have already started to miss them....it didn't help when Lucus had insisted on staying in my arms...he turned back a few times...kick up a fuss but well..they have to go...

九皇爺

The nine emperors gods (called "Jiu Wang Ye 九王爷" in Singapore and Malaysia) actually refers to the " Jiu Huang Da Di 九皇大帝" (The Nine Great Emperors) in the Daoist deities system (Daoist Patheon).




The birth of the nine emperors happened to be on the 9th of September in the chinese lunar calendar, and this day was often celebrated as the festival of "Jiu Huang 九皇" by the Daoist in Singapore and Malaysia.



The nine emperor gods are very often known as "Bei Dou Jiu Xing 北斗九星" (9 north star plough Gods), since they are gods of the stars or planets. Their mother, "Dou Mu Yuan Jun 斗姆元君" (Mother north star), is also the mother of stars.

A festival is held over the first nine days of the ninth lunar month to celebrate the return from heaven to earth of the Nine Emperor spirits.





The nine emperor gods consist of the following:
1. "Gou Chen Tian Huang Da Di 勾陈天皇大帝" (Vega Star)
2. "Bei Ji Zhi Wei Da Di 北极紫微大帝" (Polaris Star)
3. The 7 Northern Constellation Stars (called "Bei Dou Qi Xing 北斗七星"):
a. "Tan Lang 贪狼"
b. "Ju Meng 巨门"
c. "Lu Chun 禄存"
d. "Wen Qu 文曲"
e. "Lian Zhen 廉贞"
f. "Wu Qu 武曲"
g. "Po Jun 破军"

Yes, we are fortunate to chance upon one of the biggest 九皇爺 celebration here in Singapore. =)

Mothers to exercise

"SSC to launch campaign to get mothers to exercise

SINGAPORE: The Singapore Sports Council said less than 40 per cent of mothers in their thirties and forties exercise regularly. So it is launching a three-month fitness campaign aimed at getting sedentary women moving.

The planned activities include over 20 women-only fitness tryouts called Ladies Escapades. They include mother and child martial arts, Thai kick-boxing and fun karting.


According to a survey by the Singapore Sports Council, the top three reasons many women cite for not exercising are lack of time due to family, work or plain lack of interest."
(http://www.channelnewsasia.com/stories/singaporelocalnews/view/381213/1/.html)



Smart move to include both mother and child in exercising regime cos' I seriously think it's quite hard for mothers to take time away from their children to exercise(but well, I myself wasn't even exercising now! whahaha!)

Chin Mee Chin Confectionery

Chin Mee Chin Confectionery, located at 204 East Coast Road.

(traditional shelves with glass sliding doors displaying the freshly baked pastries)


It is popular for its kaya, a kind of custard jam.


Chin Mee Chin Confectionery was founded in 1925. Styled like a typical Chinese confectionery, this Hainanese coffeeshop exudes an old world charm with its ceiling fans and marble-top tables typical of coffeeshops of the 1950s.




The confectionery roasts its own coffee beans and bakes its own bread. In pre-independent Singapore, it was the Eurasian community that frequently patronised the shop before many migrated to Canada and Australia in the 1950s to 1960s. Today, Chin Mee Chin remains popular, especially on Sundays, when the worshippers of the nearby Church of the Holy Family pop by the shop. (extracted from the internet)



And yes, we tried and really like the coffee and luncheon meat bread!!!

Pain

With the pain that I am currently having, images of him back then become so clear...how much pain did he go thru then? Didn't he experience pain before all those torments?

I realised how much I have missed him and I am still missing him..greatly..

Oktoberfest

The Oktoberfest is a sixteen-day festival held each year in Munich, Bavaria, Germany during late September (and running to early October).

What began as a wedding commemoration for Prince Ludwig (the future King Ludwig I) and Princess Thereseof Saxe-Hildburghausen in 1810 has evolved into an annual debauched booze-fest replete with sausage, roast chicken, ox and, of course, beer by the ‘Big Six’ – Spaten, Löwenbräu, Augustiner, Hofbräu, Paulaner and Hacker-Pschorr breweries. How the Germans manage to squeeze all that in while wearing too-tight lederhosen (leather knickerbockers) and dirndl (traditional dress) remains a mystery.

What's up in Singapore apart from the Singapore Beer Festival to be held at Fort Canning Park from Oct 02-05 this year???

Hump

Rex(aka Kuku dog)=greedy dog=dominating dog=attention seeker.

After his repeated incidents/persistence in humping other dogs(can be even bigger than him), I might wanna add on my more nickname for him...Sex addict.

Why can't he play the "normal" way? We know he just wanna play...


Rex, we didn't want to stop u from playing but it's very awkard for daddy and mummy to explain to those strangers who are fearful that u might injure their dogs you know? hmm...maybe it's easier for u to play ball with humans instead huh? But don't get too excited and jump on visitors k? You are not small anymore k? In fact, you are a giant...well, a gentle giant for sure!!!
