About Me
- Mint + Bitter Chocolate = Heaven
- Just the blunt and honest me. Just someone who needs to air her inner most feelings and thoughts. Just a female who suffers from a crazy life journey, with lots of ups and down in her life. Just another moronic human being who wishes for peace and serenity in life one day.

Not Used!
~ Not used to being 'fully' married... felt like I haven't been through my customary yet...
~ Not used to calling my in laws, ma & pa.
~ Not used to the feeling of having nothing more to look forward to in this relationship except for a lifelong happy marriage to him.
~ Not used to giving ang pao from next year on and not recieveing them anymore.
~ Not used to the fact that I have moved on to another phrase of my life.
GOD BLESS ME!

3 Days Into Worklife
It has been 3 days since I started work and so far, I am still not used to missing out on my afternoon naps, waking up early, rushing for the train and hurrily eating breakfast at KK food court before starting work.
However, I will still continue to work hard 'cause I had my appraisal done today and it is a good motivation for me to continue striving hard for KK. I am very happy and satisfied with my appraisal and my future planned out so far. :)
Wish me all the luck in getting my entry for advance diploma soon!

Sweet Memories
I finally found someone, that knocks me off my feet
I finally found the one, that makes me feel complete
We started over coffee, we started out as friends
It's funny how from simple things, the best things begin
This time it's different, dah dah dah dah
It's all because of you, dah dah dah dah
It's better than it's ever been
'Cause we can talk it through
Oohh, my favorite line was "Can I call you sometime?"
It's all you had to say to take my breath away
This is it, oh, I finally found someone
Someone to share my life
I finally found the one, to be with every night
'Cause whatever I do, it's just got to be you
My life has just begun
I finally found someone, ooh, someone
I finally found someone, oooh
Did I keep you waiting, I didn't mind
I apologize, baby, that's fine
I would wait forever just to know you were mine
And I love your hair, sure it looks fine
I love what you wear, isn't it the time?
You're exceptional, I can't wait for the rest of my life
Whatever I do, it's just got to be you
My life has just begun
I finally found someone
Those who attended the wedding on 10 May 2009 would remember this song that made the bride teared during her first march in. Now when I listen and reminisce, I would smile to myself and feel so silly of me for crying yet not knowing why I cried...

6days 5nights In Beijing
Yes, I am back from my honeymoon in Beijing...
Will be posting pictures in Facebook later today after my sleep...
On my last day in Beijing, Jeff & I were involved in a traffic accident, all thanks to the wreckless taxi driver and the way people drives in Beijing. Suffered nothing more than a bruise on my head (Thank God)!
Anyway, meeting up with my dearie sisters on Tuesday! One more week of rest before heading back to work...

Thanks...
My wedding day has gone smoothly all thanks to God, my maid of honour, my wedding photographer, my wedding emcees and lastly my banquet manager...
I didn't turn into a bridezilla, instead, I enjoyed every process of being a bride yesterday.
The only hiccup, which was unexpected, was that I cried even before my first march-in... I was waiting outside the ballroom for the enterance and I felt pretty emotional after hearing the emcee's desciption and speech. The wedding montage song made me even more touched... What really made the tears well up in my eyes was the march-in song...
Anyway, I had much fun mingling with the guests whom most of them didn't notice the tears I had in my eye when I did my first march-in...
So yes, I am officially legally and customary married!!!

Pre-marital Reflections...
Woke up this morning reflecting on my past 12yrs of love life...
- From young, I always wanted a romantic and caring guy with a great personality. Someone who loves me to bits. Someone who would cherish and treasure me. Someone who would give me constant assurance of his genuine love, care and concern for me with words, gestures and via poetry.
- Met my first love at the age of 14. A guy who enjoyed Literature and English language as much as I do. A guy who had a gentle side, quite romantic but had a weird personality. He never told me how he really felt about me, the relationship and always had me guessing his thoughts. Anyway, I thought that he was going to be the one for me. But I was wrong. The relationship only lasted 1.5months and had me upset for many years.
- Along the way, met many guys, toyed their feelings just to spite my first love, letting him see that I was happy as well as 'surviving' well without him. Wanted him to feel that he was the one at the losing end for breaking up with me.
- At the age of 17, met my present husband. The relationship started with me making use of him and his nursing knowledge to help me with my nursing studies, only to fall in love with him in the end. He ain't a romantic guy, ain't someone who would constantly reassure his love, ain't someone who would show his care and concern openly, a guy who is practical by nature and a guy who would rather show his love in subtle ways, indirect ways, ways that you don't notice.
- Legally married when I was barely 23 after knowing my husband for 6yrs. 9months after the legal marriage, my love life was put on a roller coaster ride for the next 3yrs. I was constantly emotionally unstable and was uncertain of my marriage, yet I was determined to work it out. This had drained me mentally and emotionally... I felt it was to atone for my past sins as well as retribution for toying with the past guys' feelings.
- After gritting my teeth and much sacrifices as well as compromises, my certain character and personality has changed. The way I view things has also changed.
- This Sunday as I walk down the aisle, I pray for a happy married life thereafter. A blissful married life, with resolving arguments and stability in our marriage. I pray for our constant faithfulness to one and another for life.
So who says, you will always fall in love and marry your dream guy? I didn't. Yet I am contented.

10 Days Away
Welcome to the era of Swine Flu!
10 Days to my wedding day and Singapore is in 'Orange Alert' state. Now I worry for the attendance of my guest. I have relatives and a close friend flying in from Australia, Hongkong and London.
Back to N95 mask and PPE (Peronal Protection Equipment) at work. Pimples break out in face due to the N95 mask is expected... So upsetting... I will be an ugly bride!
As my wedding date nears, I feel more obstacles appears... How discouraging! As I managed to fight and overcome those obstacles to walk down the aisle, here comes a Pandemic outbreak worst than SARS back in 2003.
Hopefully, everything will just go well and as planned.
Anyway, my honeymoon to Beijing is still on! Praying that China would be not affected otherwise, I would be qurantined and on no pay leave, as well as medical bills would not be subsidised by the hospital.
