Do you collecting photo?

The photo I mean is hard copy photo like 3R or 4R, not digital photo.

Yes, I know I am very out-dated to say that in 21 century. The whole world is now talking about digital life and I am also using a digital camera for so long as well (pity my conventional camera now just hibernating in my drawer). But even I take hundreds of digital photos, I will still pick some to develop into hard copies.

Now I have nearly 10 big stick albums, and pasting photos into the album become one of my hobby. Especially travel photos, I can spend few nights to take out all the travel brochures, tickets, or other information, then cut, arrange and paste them together with my photos. So my albums are not just ordinary album with just photos, also served as a travel journal.

I think I developed this habit ever since I was very young, when digital camera was still not exists. That time there was only 3R format and not also as clear as now (from very old and cheap automatic camera), but yet I still like my photos so much. I would arrange them nicely into my albums and labeled them nicely. Since young I was realized that keeping photos and labeling are very important in my life, as I know myself very well that I am a very forgetful person. So every now and then when viewing my old photos, I was like seeing the “new” me hahaha… Imagine if one day I lost my albums, I think I will cry non-stop and turn crazy, because I will never remember my sweet childhood, golden time when schooling and precious traveling experience.

Touch wood!!

(came accross a language translation tool in google, so I try to paste my above blog into it and translated to chinese. As expected, some words are damn funny after translated!! please enjoy :)

你收集照片?

我的意思是照片像硬盘『三重』或4R照片,没有数码照片.

是的,我知道我很不合时宜地说,在21世纪. 现在全世界都在谈论数字化生活,我也用了这么久的数码相机和(可惜我现在只是传统相机对准我的抽屉). 就连我借几百数码照片,我也会发展成小一些印本.

现在我已经坚持了近10个大型画册,并贴照片到我的专辑成为嗜好. 特别是旅游照片,我可以用几个夜晚,拿出所有的旅行手册、机票或其他资料,然后切断,并安排他们与我的照片贴. 所以我不只是一般的音乐专辑,只是照片,还充当旅行杂志.

我觉得这个发展是很习惯,自从我年轻,当时还不存在的数码相机. 当时只有『三重』的方式,而不是现在还清清楚楚(从自动相机很便宜,老),但我还是喜欢我没有这么多照片. 我要好好安排他们,并指责他们为我国音乐好听. 因为我年轻明白标示和平和照片,我的生命是非常重要的,因为我知道我很好,我很健忘的人. 所以每隔一段时间便在观看我的老照片,我仿佛看到了"新"我hahaha::想象,如果有一天我失去了我的专辑,我想我会哭泣不停,又疯狂,因为我永远记得我甜蜜的童年,金色的时候上学和贵重旅游经验.

大吉利!

滨海艺术中心

大家知道新加坡滨海艺术中心(Esplanade)吧?　

它可是标榜为新加坡首屈一指的艺术表演场地，有间1,600个座位的音乐厅、2,000个座位的剧院、数间演奏厅和排练室、还有户外表演空间。此外，这里也有购物中心、国际风味餐馆以及新加坡首家艺术图书馆．

这么富有文艺气息的地标，最近多了个特别用途喔！
那就是．．．举行葬礼～！！

是的．你没看错，我也没写错．
一场为了已故建国元勋前副总理拉惹勒南举行的国葬礼，已隆重的在上周末于滨海艺术中心音乐厅举行了．

别出心裁吧？
还是孤陋寡闻的我, 并不知道世界上还有个知名的音乐厅也举行过葬礼呢?
如果没有的话, 有人打算把这次事件列入健力士记录吗?　:P

日文与我

上了半年多的日文课, 昨天终于画上句号.

开始了两堂的中级班, 却因为人数不够而取消. 虽然退还了全部学费, 心里还是满不高兴的. 不, 我不怪我的导师, 因为这也不是他要的结果. 只是想到还没掌握好的日文即将要荒废掉, 实在又失望又伤心. 学到的部分, 如果长期不用到, 迟早会忘光光, 到时学了也等于白学. 这不让人痛心吗?

不, 我不能自我放弃.

我必须在家常常练习, 另一方面再努力的寻找另一个课程.

对, 就这么办吧!

你也会为我加油吧!

Amazing Bugs

My sis forwarded this photo taken by her new hp at her office's carpark. Know what is it? A bunch of bees climbing on a robe??? NO, No, no.... there is no robe or string hanging from the ceiling, but those bees actually holding each another and formed a string-like hanging down the ceiling!! Amazing right??? And according to my sis, they are very smart bees that they will start to fly away 1 by 1 starting from the bottom bee, is like they know if they start flying from the top part all other bees will fall down haha...

(FYI, there is no coconut trees at my sis office. Those trees are some effects added to the picture using her new hp. )

This is a picture adopted from a M'sia newspaper. Guess what it is?

A mask? An art piece? A toy? Nah....

..

..

..

..

The answer is .... a bug!!

It's been discovered in Melaka recently. Amazing right? It's like carrying a face that is keep smiling at you.... and with a very trendy hair style!!!

Have you SUDOKU?

Recently I'm addicted to a numbering game called SUDOKU.

The rule is very easy, just have to fill in the grid so that every row, every column and every 3X3 box contains the digits 1 to 9. Easy right? this is the example:

But if you want to solve the puzzle, it really squeeze your whole brain. And the real challenge is you have to beat the game with the best time. My best time is around 5 minutes and I'm still not satisfied with it. I know that HK artist Gigi Leung also quite addicted to it, and her best time is 3+ minutes (let's assume she is telling the truth). I hope i can beat her record very soon :)

Normally I will play this game online. Some websites provide tons of sudoku puzzles FOC, like websudoku. But since it is a very brain-and-eye-exhausted game, I can only play 3-4 games per day or else I will feel myself like a dead fish!

Since I'm so addicted to this game, I went to search for other alternative which can let me play when I'm taking the bus (i spend 1 hr in the bus everyday to work). I've searched the bookstores, there are plenty of sudoku books available but each of them costs more than $20!! This is ridiculuos as most of the books only have 2-300 puzzles at most which i guess i can finish them by few weeks. And I can't re-play again as I will write all the answer on each page (if not how to solve? Erase is too time-consuming).

Thus, I opt for 2nd choice -- a sudoku machine, an electronic version of hand-held sudoku machine, which can let me play wherever i go. Last 2 weeks I saw a few versions when I walked pass Seiyu Department store. A normal machine still costs $20+ but it contains 1 million different puzzles and with a timer as well to record the resolving best time. If you rich enough, you can buy the machine with a touch screen which costs twice the normal price. Just now I try to google the sudoku machine and found plenty of different machines available actually. Luckily Singapore market is smaller and does not has plenty of choices, so I dont need to get a headache in selecting one haha... (see? small country also has some benefits :P ) This is one of the example of the sudoku machine I may have one day:

Anyone want to sponsor it? :)

MC

Finally decided to see doctor, as early morning still can feel the half blocking and half running nose, dizzyness and sore throat!

After 1.5 hours of queuing (only 1 doctor in clinic, super slow flow), I managed to get 1 day MC to rest at home. Doctor said I just minor flu case with no fever, so just gave me some running nose and cough medicine. Haih~ if I got fever like last nite, i sure can get 2 days MC rite? :-P

Now there are bird flu cases in other countries again. So every patient before register must take temperature measurement at the counter. Too bad no single patient there has body temperature over 37degrees, if not i can see how those nurses react rite?

(sorry lah, waiting time too long, so wuliao person like me tend to think of nonsense haha)

唉~~

我生病了~!

伤风, 感冒, 鼻塞加昏昏欲睡… 今天一大早还有一堆”指令” 要进行, 真要命!

老天爷啊，要嘛明天给我恢复健康体魄，不然就真真正正给我发烧吧，好让我明天可以拿一张MC在家好好休息，好吗？

Quiz

Carried out two different quiz just now, here's the result:

What is Your Dress Personality?

Your Dress Personality: CoolYour PersonalityYou give people the cool and chic impression. You're strong-willed and independent, and you've got character - you know exactly what you want in life and you're all out to conquer. Because of your cool exterior, men tend to feel intimidated by your femme fatale looks.

Your Dress Style: Your dressing is simple but sometimes edgy, giving people a glimpse of your rebellious nature. But more often than not, you're geared in basic casuals (mostly blacks and neutrals). With your no-nonsense attitude towards fashion and hype, you don't care two hoots about the latest trends or hottest fad. Way to go, girl!

Your Skin's Hydration Level

Your Skin is Crying Out for Moisture!

You may not be aware of it, but your skin is likely to be dehydrated. The signs are all there: flaky skin and sensitivity, skin tightness, difficulty in putting on makeup. Dehydrated skin can cause various skin problems: dry skins become duller and drier, sensitive skins become more sensitive, while oily skins can become oilier to compensate for the lack of moisture.

Working in an air-conditioned environment for long periods can dehydrate your skin, as can using inappropriate, excessively harsh skincare products. Insufficient moisturizing can also contribute to skin dehydration.

And yes, even oily skin needs moisturizers, especially if you're also using acne products, which can further dry out the skin. Skin dehydration may sometimes trigger excessive sebum production, resulting in an even oilier complexion, or even adult acne.

Time is not enough?!

Do you have this problem?

I do.

Everyday my time is really not enough. Morning till evening is working hour. The moment I reach home from a long bus journey is 7+pm. Then I have dinner, bathing, tv / vcd programs, pc / ps2 games, reading novels… till sleeping time at 12 midnight. I have just 4 hours + to do all my hobbies, mana cukup??

So I wonder why some people still complaining they are too lonely too free and too boring but yet I am too busy (although busy for nothing hehe)!! I think this is your character influence your action rite? For me, once I feel free or bored, I will try to find something else to do, like watch a movie, read a book or magazine, play a game, go shopping, go library, go ktv, and writing blog hehe. Even no new movie, game, book or magazine, I will dig out my old dvd to watch again or an old novel to read again. Tell you what, I always doing that haha…because I am too forgetful. After few months I will forget all the shows or novels I watched/read. Just like LOTR trilogy, Harry Potter 1-3 and Stephen Chow’s movies. I’ve been watching these shows for more than twice!! Especially Stephen’s movies, every time I watch I still can laugh till non-stop (even for some scenes I can remember).

So build up your own hobby. You will have a busy day like me too !!

blog update

hey, add in another function into my blog -- a meter counter!!

view the bottom left part of the blog :)

Valentine's Gift

Not for me...

is for my sis!!

Not from me also...

is from my bro in law -- her husband!!

and it's the second gift after a latest handphone he gave recently... nice husband rite?

I blog this not bcos I jealous, but bcos my sis scanned a very artistic photo of her bag to me haha... Can you imagine a whole bag with this?

FOC tote

Finally made a decision to change my skin care product. Been using Nuskin for quite some time but now bored of seeing same old bottles every morning! So last month went to Shiseido counter bought a set of White skin care product. Chose this series not because of want to look white (cos I am still fair now), but because its mosturiser has spf and PA++ also. I am soooo lazy to apply two times of mosturiser + sun block, like when i was using Nuskin. 2 in 1 more suits me haha...

So after spending >$100 at the counter, I automatically become one of their Circle member. The reason I joined them because got complimentary bag (greedy Kat) haha.... Last week, finally i got their member card + a letter to claim the foc bag. See? this is a two-way tote + its matching organiser! Not bad rite? hmm.... what kind of clothes should match with this???

hey, for posting this image, I've learned another photoshop skill -- merge two pictures!! :)

Today tried sandwich lunch in a café nearby. Wow, the ambience was so good and quiet, their mocha not so bad and their turkey ham sandwich was so nice!! I enjoyed the lunch so much today :) and I was the only Chinese there surrounded by other Caucasians haha…

No no no, this is not the main reason I blog today.

The main point is happened after the lunch.

When I walked back to office, I chose a further route across a mini pond where I can admire a few big carps swimming freely. You can imagine I was in a very good mood rite? Then on the half way, I walked pass a Caucasian guy with a black hair (I assume when people say Caucasian will automatically think of blonde hair rite?). The moment I walked pass him (I busy looking at the fish without looking at his face), he said something to me “your face so fierce!”.

Huh?! What?! Am I really having a fierce looking face when I don’t smile??? This really bothers me awhile. Then I start to self-examine. I look at the mirror in toilet. Maybe my eyebrow shape looks fierce? Or maybe I like to frown usually without my notice?? Then I started to think back a conversation with my friend last time when I was in secondary school. She said many guys think I look okay [I :) ] but also very cool looking [I :( ], that’s why they don’t dare to approach me. That time I was too young to realize how serious of it can affect my social life so I ignored it and replied “good, less trouble rite?”. But now I am not that childish ok? I really must do something to improve it. Maybe I can smile more? But will I look so stupid if smiling alone in the street? Or tell my beautician to shape my eyebrows into cheerful look? Hmm…is there any good suggestion?

Anyway, that time I wasn’t stop my walking and just look and smile at him. I don’t have to explain anything to a stranger rite?

Here's my latest wallpaper on 1 of the common pc in my office, which i got it from a cute site! Doesn't it cute?

捞生记

今天是农历正月十二, 还在农历新年其间.

我公司康乐组举办了个小型捞生会, 在admin 楼于三点钟举行. 反正今天很空闲, 就和另一个同事去逛了一圈. 结果是满不错的经验哦!

首先是第一次与那么多人一起捞生, 而且还有不同种族的人呢. 大家虽然都不熟悉对方, 但是聚在一起捞呀捞的, 还满高兴的.我抢了几片三文鱼呢!

再来呢是第一次与大老板庆生. 原来今天是他的生日,所以准备了两个大蛋糕, 与大家唱了首生日歌.

他们还准备了两桌自助餐, 一大堆蕉柑和啤酒. 可惜时间太不对了, 才刚过午餐时间,所以不是那么多人出席. 我也因为中午吃太饱了, 只能意思意思的拿了些鱼生, 两片小蛋糕和一小杯果汁. 呣, 那个巧克力蛋糕还不错, 芒果的呢就太酸了一点. 喔对, 最后我还打包了两粒柑回办公室, 嘻嘻!

唉, 没拿相机拍下来实在太可惜了!

Took a test just now and here's the result:

This Is My Life, Rated
Life:	6
Mind:	6.5
Body:	7.3
Spirit:	4.1
Friends/Family:	2.9
Love:	3.1
Finance:	7.2
Take the Rate My Life Quiz

Your Life Analysis:

Life: Your life rating is a score of the sum total of your life, and accounts for how satisfied, successful, balanced, capable, valuable, and happy you are. The quiz attempts to put a number on the summation of all of these things, based on your answers. Your life score leaves room for improvement. You can make changes to improve your trouble areas, and this will bring you greater satisfaction. Focus on your weakest points and set about to change them. Do not delay your happiness and success.
(hmm.... they din conclude anything do they?)

Mind: Your mind rating is a score of your mind's clarity, ability, and health. Higher scores indicate an advancement in knowledge, clear and capable thinking, high mental health, and pure thought free of interference. Your mind score is not bad, but could be improved upon. Your mental health is not weak, but you are not achieving full mental clarity and function. Learn how to unclutter your mind. Keep learning, keep improving, continue moving forward.
(Hey, my mind scores the best!! it proves I got brain ok?)

Body: Your body rating measures your body's health, fitness, and general wellness. A healthy body contributes to a happy life, however many of us are lacking in this area. You have a rather good body score, which is an indication that you take care of yourself. There is room for improvement, however. Please keep doing what works. Eat right, exercise, reduce your stress, treat any illness. Doing these things will help ensure your body will be in good working order for a long time to come.
(Y everything oso say need improvement? we know this all along rite? )

Spirit: Your spirit rating seeks to capture in a number that elusive quality which is found in your faith, your attitude, and your philosophy on life. A higher score indicates a greater sense of inner peace and balance. You seem to be lacking in spirit. Improve your score by refining your beliefs and searching for answers to philosophical questions. Consider new belief systems if your current beliefs are not rewarding you.
(hey, they said i lacking in spirit simply because i dont bliv in any religion :( )

Friends/Family: Your friends and family rating measures your relationships with those around you, and is based on how large, healthy, and dependable your social network is. You scored at the very low end for friends and family. This means that your social network is weak and not functioning. Consider re-establishing old bonds as you work on forging new ones. You will be greatly rewarded in return.
(I know I am very weak in this...)

Love: Your love rating is a measure of your current romantic situation. Sharing your heart with another person is one of life's most glorious, terrifying, rewarding experiences. You have a rather low love score. Your current relationship issues must be resolved. Delay will only worsen the problems. Turn things around starting today and you will be glad you did.
(OMG! this is serious!!)

Finance: Your finance rating is a score that rates your current financial health and stability. You have a rather good financial score, which is not all that common these days. Keep doing what works. Avoid common pitfalls and save for the future. You will be glad you did.
(yeah, i am glad too I got better score in this column!!)

Hey... very happy now!!

Yes, a computer idiot like me can do that, hahaha.... what a great improvement rite?
