What is marriage all about?
I finished this drama called "结婚“ over the weekend. Which means marriage. The show talks about this girl that loved a guy so much and she married him. She married him without expecting anything in return, but gradually she becomes greedy and starts to want more. She became jealous of the love that guy has for his first love and wished she had this love from him as well. Slowly, this desire of hers changed her from a happy go lucky girl to someone that only knows how to cry everyday.
The storyline might be simple and predictable, but somehow I was deeply touched by it. Perhaps its because I've been through my fair share of heartbreaks as well. I fully understand how it feels to love someone but not loved back as much in return. This show also depicts the sweet and loving feeling of a newly wed couple..which is pretty much like me and hubby few months back. Of cos we're still newly weds..but the show reminds me of the sweet loving feeling I had after our wedding. In the show, the couple shows how distrust and dishonesty can easily break up what was suppose to be a happy marriage. Indeed, trust is easy to be destroyed but hard to build up. Once broken, it is hard to be back to before. I am glad that dear has been doing well in this so far. He never fails to let me know where is he going and who he'll be meeting up with. Of cos, on a few occasions, I do feel tempted to check his handphone just to see who he is keeping in touch with...I guess that is the most important thing in a marriage..love is the foundation, trust is the pillar and relationship is the walls.
I pray that my marriage will always stay as sweet and loving as it is now.

Our first family car
Has been a while since I update. Still busy with life. Busy acting busy, busy being depressed with work, busy with my dog, busy with housechores. Funny how people continue to chase for that 'impossible' leisure life.
Well, I get to knock off from work slightly earlier last week so I decided to drop by Cycle & Carriage to take a look at their latest model iPlay. I have been aiming for the iCar since it was launched and we had plans to get it next year. But price has gone up since we last saw it. The new iPlay is sooo cool, with a touch screen panel which is compatible with iPod, there is no more need for CDs. Of course I have to first find time to copy all my songs over to my hdd. Then there is the additional sporty stuff like fog lamps, spoiler etc. I went home to persuade dear after getting all the details, have to convince him that it is better to get it before the gst hike which'll make the car cost $1k more. Thank God that he also feel that price will increase after the gst hike. So with an unsure heart, we went down to the showroom again on friday to make our booking. Not sure if we got a good deal, but we managed to get the color we want after much effort - Pearl White (we saw this on a Evo and it was love at first sight. I dropped my idea of getting a white car after seeing this. Also dear kept reminding me that white turns yellow after some time and I dun wanna risk driving a yellow grumpy car). They specially order this color for us from Japan..only thing is we might have to wait a bit longer. I only hope that the price will keep going up and not the other way round. We managed to get free leather seats, an extra immobilizer, 3M floormats and Rikecool for the entire car at a topup of $200. Wasn't able to get it for free though..kinda sad about this. But the best deal is we got a free upgrade, so we're paying the price of a normal Mit-i but getting the iPlay which costs $4k more normally. So excited and can't wait.
The one at the bottom is the one we're getting, the one on top is solid white. But trust me, solid white doesn't really look as good ...pearl white has lower risk of turning yellow overtime..so is safer in the long run. Will be collecting our car in Nov if nothing goes wrong..and I can start scouting around for car deco. Yippeee...
