updates about my life

Tons of things are going on recently in our lives and thought i better update here before i forget.

- we got back our ariston hob. (repaired and foc! thx to dear..dunno how he managed to convince them that its their fault. haha)
- our new coffee table arrived on the same day. really nice..but doesn't blend with our current sofa though.
- dear brought me down to LUXURHOME to view our sofa..sadly the sofa is not on display. but ..we bought it afterall! I manage to squeeze out some good bargains. Can't wait for it to arrive in May. And hopefully we get to sell away our sofa set soon..someone coming to view tonite..God bless.
- i finally tendered my resignation after being in a dilemma for 3 days. even lost sleep becos of it. But I've decided to leave it to God to make the best decision for me. If I am meant to stay in my current company (which I am really happy here), please let my boss give me a pay raise. Otherwise, pray that I'll be happy in the new workplace. I still feel kinda sad if I've to leave my current job cos everyone here is so nice and friendly. hard to find nice bosses nowadays. But for other worldly reasons, i gotto leave and head for better prospects. sighx.
- going to have my 3rd fleamarket stall this saturday. can't wait for it..we're even more well prepared this round..need to make lotsa $$ to cover the cost of my new sofa. God BLESSSssss...plssss.

Other things we're still working hard towards:

- Getting our own car by early 2008 if possible.
- Getting a part time maid to take care of all the mopping, washing etc.
- Learning to play any song I wan on the piano.

That should be all for now.

200 Pounds Beauty

Went to watch this show with dear on Monday night. First time I feel happy to live near a cinema. Surprisingly the movie crowd was quite a lot for a monday late night show. This movie really touched me...just like the last korean movie "Windstruck". This is more of a comedy but the songs and story really blends well. It showcase one of the common issue with society nowadays. We tend to judge people by their looks. Of cos in the movie it is exaggerated..but it is true to a certain extent. Eg. a good looking and a average/fat person applies for a job with the same experience and qualification, tendancy is that the better looking one will get it. This is just how sad our world is. But God is fair, those people will normally be blessed with other qualities..such as good voice (like the actress in the show), good personality or good social skills etc. Anyway, I like the show so much that my computer has the actress as my wallpaper. If only I can be as pretty as her...pretty yet pure. Hee.

New house ~ 1 year old

We did not even realise that we've stayed in our new house for 1 year now. Dunno if i can still call it new house. I did many changes to the house along the way and I've grown to love it more n more each day. Come to think of it...there hasn't been any major quarrels with dear for the past 6mths. Thanks to God. Here is my attempts to take some artistic shots of our house.

2nd fleamarket ~ made a profit of $100+

Following the experience and success of our first fleamarket stall, we had our 2nd stall on 24th Mar. This time we were more well prepared. Within an hour, I manage to sell away the 5 pair of shoes I brought plus some clothes. Made a clean profit of $100+ and nett profit of $80 after deducting expenses. Not a lot but its a fun experience cos we get to clear our junk and make some money...its a healthy way to spend the weekend I think.





We had a good spot at the market..no morning or afternoon sun..hopefully i'll get back the same spot the next time I am there. Oh, our 3rd stall is on 28th April. Wish me the best!

Our 1st homemade Fondue

We bought this recently when we visited the BIG sale at habourfront. Bought some new appliances for our house such as a new juice extractor, a mini steamboat n grill set for the two of us. I have seen them selling the chocolate fondue machine at shopping centres but find it too big and too expensive to own one. Then I came across this mini set for home use. Plus the sample we tasted is too delicious that I decided to get one set and tried. The next day, we bought some fruits and made our first chocolate fondue!


yummylicious~




doesn't this look pretty?


i still prefer the toasted version of marshmellow though. this is too sweet for my liking.

This is the mini steamboat set we got..from now we can have steamboat anytime we like. Bye bye to marina south! Dear insisted on trying the grill function..its quite fun though, but it made the whole dining room smokey n oily..guess who is the poor thing that have to cleanup after that.

Our 33rd Month Anniversary

We celebrated our 33rd mth anniversary on 14th April 07. Although we do not make it a necessity to celebrate monthly anniversaries, but we try to have a meal together on this day every month. Time flies and we've been married for close to 4mths by now. Hehe..


bought this at a fleamarket for $5...i spotted this and asked dear to buy it for me as a gift. The beads glow in the dark. I love the heart crystal personnaly.




we went over to a resturant in cineleisure for brunch since we'll be having dinner at a friend's wedding.


i had this which is much nicer than the one dear is having.


the finale!


Me! =P

On a sidenote:
My induction stove spoilt today. Hopefully we can get it fixed by Monday..otherwise, it means we can't boil water and can't cook. Sighx. Crappy Ariston products and sucky MAYER service.

ade just pushed the labtop to me, i guess she wants me to contribute to the blog.. hmm.... really dun noe what to write. . things have not been going well at work. good thing is i had overcome my own negative self. the next step is actually to continue to work hard and show my worth at work. hopefully in times to come, i am able to make it and be someone that my wife will be proud of. JIA YOU !!!
