5 + 5 + 2 = 12

Added more WonderShrimps aka Halocaridina Rubra to my tank. So in total, I have 12 WonderShrimps. The WonderShrimps have been adapting well and feeding is now on althernate days. I will probably be adding a snail to help with algae cleaning from the tank walls soon.

These WonderShrimps have added much 'colours' to my mundane life at home besides surfing the net, watching YouTube and online movies.

HURRAY!

Perfect Imperfections

Love should be pure and simple. It should not be based on social status, richness, materialistic idealisation, external beauty or ability to show off to others.
Sadly, not everyone understands that... To some, love is just an emotion and marriage is based on a rash decision, hence, the increasing rate of divorce. In the eyes of some people, love is just a game or a bet they made with friends, peers or family members. That explains the norm of breaking-up over trivia issues.
Not many married couples would truly understand the meaning of love and marriage. They fail to remember their wedding vows to stay united as one in times of thick and thin, in sickness or in health, for better or worse, to cherish and to honour, to remain faithful and cherish the convenant of a marriage till death do them apart.
Some couples even forgot the reason of why they fell in love in the first place and what attracted them to their spouses initially. They then leave the marriage mundane or end up divorcing due to external temptations.
Such a pity...
I believe that is also probably why people force themselves to never fall in love ever again due to bad experiences in previous failed relationship/relationships. To make matters worse, they witness failed relationships and marriages, which further affirms their idealisation of true love being nonexistent.
I am a believer of true love but yet I don't trust it to happen to me. Only time will heal my old wounds to allow me to trust in true love happening to me again...
Tsk Tsk Tsk.

Will Happiness Last?

Currently at the peak of my life. Never had the though that my life was ever going to be this happy and blissful again, not after a divorce and definitely not after resigning from KKH. I am not saying that my life is perfect but at least, it was never expected that I would find love, passion, status and obtain my degree. Many people who doesn't know my history has been asking when I would marry my fiance. They even said that he is a rare find in this modern society, too loving and caring towards me.

The truth is that yes, I want to marry him. However, what is stopping me is my own fears. Fear of history repeating itself. Fear of making the wrong decision to step into married life again. Fear of misjudgment on my part that he may change after marriage, just like my ex-husband did. Fear that I would lose this happiness and blissfulness after marriage. Fear of what-ifs.

In my world, happiness is short-lived. I would never experience any true joy for long.

To be able to meet my fiance, is a blessing. Although he isn't rich, neither is he good looking, nor is he highly educated, but he is genuine, he is loving, his caring and his gestures are sincere. He may be blur at times and not good with words, but I could see that he would be a good husband through his actions and non-verbal protectiveness towards me. Yet, I fear that he may change his ways after marriage. I fear that it would be back to square one after marriage. I fear that I would be heading for another divorce if history repeats itself.

He knows my insecurities. He understands my fear. He says that he will wait for me to feel confident in marriage again. He says that he is willing to prove that he isn't like my ex-husband. But... I still fear...

We have talked about 09/09/2015 for ROM or maybe even  28/4/2015. We have also discussed about application/buying a BTO flat together. But will it come true? That will all depends on my ability to overcome the fear and his continuous action to convince me.

I may look strong on the outside but inside, I am an insecure woman... I am just a plain woman, who had failed enough in life.

WonderShrimps: New Pet

Was recommended by a doctor friend of mine to purchase this new pet after I was perpetually visiting his room to gaze at his aquarium containing these tiny and cute shrimps called, Wonder Shrimps.

The cost of my aquarium aka Open Eco-system is $98 and has 5 of these Wonder Shrimps. Bought them a shop at Tampines and had the male boss teaching as well as sharing his knowledge of these shrimps. Apparently,  these shrimps are quite hardy and can live up to 3-5 years. Thus, it is good for people like me who doesn't really know much about taking care of pets well. Their aquarium doesn't need much attention either, juz water top up every monthly and I would to feed them weekly with their 'vitamin pellet'.

The actual breed of these shrimps is called, Halocaridina Rubra, they grow to maximum 1.6cm in length and are found mostly in Hawaii and Maui island.

Let's just hope that they would breed and I will have more shrimps as pets to gaze at whenever I am stressed or bored at home.
