Exercise Dating (15 Nov 2019)

On Friday, we practiced 10km run together with his colleagues. We managed to clock in 10km and felt achievement. After that we refuelled our energy back with Steak and Chicken at Aston's and had quality time together pouring our heart out. Earlier in the morning, I received unusual message from him. He praised my exercise tshirt and the way I looked. Of course I felt so happy because I seldom received any praise from him haha... In the evening, during dinner, he then poured out his heart that actually he's jealous and thought that I'm gonna flirting with other gym mate during my morning training. He couldn't focus on his work so he decided to message me and told me what he felt and thought of me... We both laughed out loud but it's good to prove that we still cared and loved each other.

Thursday Dating (14 Nov 2019)

After having disagreement on Tuesday, we patched it up again and on Thursday night I was supposed to attend business meeting but he needed to work late so I picked him up from the office and asked him to come to the business meeting together. We finished around 9.30pm and felt hungry so we decided to have supper night at Haji Lane. We shared roti john then strolling along the street. It's so lively and vibrant with different cuisines and people, both locals and tourists. We were like courting to each other again.

Assumptions is the Opposite of Communication

Yesterday was a great day to start in the beginning. Both of us planned to have evening exercise together. However, when I picked him up in the evening just before exercise, my mood turned upside down. When he came in to the car, he told me that his boss asked him about the car since the company had given him a car allowance and yet he never rode the car to the office. Prior to that, we already had an issue who's going to use the car next year. In my own thought, I feel that this car will be useful to move around then just stay and do nothing in the office. However, his thought is the opposite, he feels that as a sales manager, probably the highest paid in the office, he's entitled to have car and yet he needs to take the company bus as well as other inconveniences. At first, I assumed that he's a changed man after entering this company. Yes, there's no pressure, and this is the dream company that he wants so I assumed that he became complacent in faith and ...

Memory by Maroon 5 (Song of the month)

Here's to the ones that we got Cheers to the wish you were here, but you're not 'Cause the drinks bring back all the memories Of everything we've been through Toast to the ones here today Toast to the ones that we lost on the way 'Cause the drinks bring back all the memories And the memories bring back, memories bring back you There's a time that I remember, when I did not know no pain When I believed in forever, and everything would stay the same Now my heart feel like December when somebody say your name 'Cause I can't reach out to call you, but I know I will one day, yeah Everybody hurts sometimes Everybody hurts someday, aye aye But everything gon' be alright Go and raise a glass and say, aye Here's to the ones that we got Cheers to the wish you were here, but you're not 'Cause the drinks bring back all the memories Of everything we've been through Toast to the ones here today Toast to the ones that we lost on the way ...

Spring Cleaning

Today, I did spring cleaning. Cleaning up my eldest's paperworks and school book while tidying up the cupboard. During the spring cleaning, there are three items I found 1.  Items seldom or never use anymore (ready to be discarded) 2. Forgotten items but it's useful now 3. Useful items but no longer needed (can be donated) I usually did spring cleaning every 3 months, most of the time cleaning up toys as well as yearly spring cleaning for school books and paper works. It takes courage to start because sometimes I don't know where to start. But after finishing it, I feel a sense of accomplishment and feel good. The cupboard is now more spacious, it's nice to view it again like brand new. It also applies in spiritual life. Most of the time we have lots of cluttered things in our life. With the fast pace we have, we just add in baggages now and then and in the end we feel that our life is so messy, cluttered, lost focus and purpose. W...

Movie Monday Date ( 11 Nov 2019)

As the world celebrate singles day, we are movie monday dating. We watched Joker as suggested by hubby at night after settling down the children. Many said it's good movie, but I found it so depressing watching it haha... Anyway, some reflections after watching movie 1. Nobody is born with bad characters 2. Bully is very dangerous and has detrimental effects 3. People may change from good to bad when they are always pushed and discouraged. Here's the short synopsis about Joker movie Forever alone in a crowd, failed comedian Arthur Fleck seeks connection as he walks the streets of Gotham City. Arthur wears two masks -- the one he paints for his day job as a clown, and the guise he projects in a futile attempt to feel like he's part of the world around him. Isolated, bullied and disregarded by society, Fleck begins a slow descent into madness as he transforms into the criminal mastermind known as the Joker.

Fun and Therapeutic Activity

I have been looking for vegetable farming workshop quite sometimes, but either the time was not suitable nor the place was so out. Few weeks ago, one of my friends informed me about vegetable farming workshop at Thomson's Nursery areas. I was excited and quickly registered and to my disappointment, the course was fully booked. Thanks God, she knew the owner of the shop and can slot me in. I really looked forward for this workshop. Last Sunday, I gained new knowledge 1. Vegetables are short living only 7 days (flavour, taste, smell, nutrients) Singapore is very small country with little own produce and most of the vegetables come from nearby countries. By the time, the leaves were plucked from main plant, it's considered died and took about 4 - 5 days to reach supermarket shelves. Thus we only have 2 effective days to get most of it. 2. New concept between FRESH VS TREE RIPPED We thought that as long as we eat fresh food, we are okay. Sadly, it's not really ok...

Calm over the situation

We met our best friend over dinner last Sunday. They just came back from Scandinavia trip few weeks ago. They shared about their unforgettable experience including the car accident in Iceland. What caught me most was when they shared how the people there responded the fateful event like accident. They told us that accident happened in the F road which was a lot of gravels and since suddenly it's snowing, they were not prepared. The car's tyres were slippery and they hit two motorcycles nearby. They were on the way to go to base camp for snow mobile activity. After the car accident, they were very panic especially it happened in the foreign country and out of nowhere. Then there's a car coming and saw the accident happened. The driver quickly was out from the car and check the motorcycles which have been hit by their car if there are victims. Thanks God, there's no casualty. When they called the police, the police helped to contact the car rental company and ...
