Sadness Is In the Air

I watched an Indonesian movie with Suliana yesterday. It's called "Heart". It's about 2 friends, Rachel & Farell who have been buddies since they were very young. Farell fell in love with a girl he met, Luna, & told Rachel about it. Suddenly, Rachel realises that she loves Farell but she can't express her feelings because she doesn't want to destroy Farell's happiness. Unfortunately, Luna is dying due to an illness. Rachel got involved in an accident & her legs have to be amputated. As what normally is the ending for these kinda shows, I expect that Rachel will die (somehow) & donate her liver to save Luna's life. And that really happens. It's a typical love story but the soundtracks are very good. The cast crew acted very well too.

Being in love, in a relationship can be very engaging yet heartbreaking. What I feel towards the person, may not be likewise for me. If you ask about my present feelings, my answer is that I am sad. Very sad. Because someone said something that really broke my heart. I don't know what to do.

Ramadhan -The Test of My Patience

The fasting month has started again. It's time for me to shed some weight to fit into my kebaya (hopefully!), strive to be a better person & do good deeds. Sighs...speaking of good deeds, I just bitched at the NTUC aunty just now. In the first place, I never like shoping for groceries at NTUC. It's always full of people (kiasu ones of course!) & the queue is bloody long & slow. Anyway, my sis wanted to buy some stuff to break fast so I just tagged along. I felt like eating tortilla chips dipped with salsa sauce. We searched row by row for instant salsa sauce but couldn't seem to find. Hmm...NTUC don't carry salsa sauce?! Unbelievable..but oh well, my sis decided to ask one of the NTUC aunties. She was like busy doing her job (arranging ketchup bottles on the rack) & when my sis asked, without even looking at us or thinking for a second, she replied a flat NO! I got pissed by her reaction & I just said to my sister loudly: "I don't think she know what's a salsa sauce!". Now, the aunty SURE has heard me because she turned to us, repeats nicely that NTUC does not carry that item. Her tone was much better this time but too bad..I was starting to pull my sister away. I know...it's just NTUC, not Giordano or MacDonald's & I had worse encounter of bad service (Eg. the Birkenstock store at Wheelock) but come to think of it, it's really a test of my patience on my first day of fasting! Looks like I expect too much of a supermarket.

Anyway, that's about the unavailable salsa sauce. There were long queues on every counter, so we had no choice but to endure with the crowd. The couple in front of us bought loads of potato chips & it's really 1 trolley of chips! They can open a chips-only store at home! Then, while we were still waiting for our seemed to be like forever turn to pay, this uncle behind us just shouted over to the cashier & asked how much is a packet of Pringles. I was like...hello, can't you wait for your turn?! We are all in the queue! Goodness, that uncle must have been inspired to get chips as well from the couple in front! Sighs....now you know why I don't like NTUC.



I saw Hershey's coated mashmallow with strawberry filling! Can't resist from buying a packet. Then, since I couldn't get my salsa sauce, forget about tortilla chips! Instead, I bought Kettle's Spicy Thai. The colour of both look so striking..hehe~ THAT I like. :)

Forbidden City : Potrait Of An Empress

So what did I bought to surprise Superhero??? It's tickets to watch Forbidden City at the Esplanade! :) Superhero is surprised & he's touched. Aww....Hehe. We had dinner at Anatolia Turkish Cafe & proceed to City Hall to get my daily shot of Starbucks. Then it's off to Esplanade!
So so many people! Ah, it's a Saturday, after all. Hmmm~

My ticket & the brouchures! I wanted to get the $80 seats but it was sold out...Sheesh. I make do with the $60 ones...

Waiting for the show to start... Lotsa families, students & couples...

I really admire Kit Chan! What a big voice she has...

The crowd during the interval. There were many people queuing up to get drinks from the bar but there was only 1 pathetic staff pouring the drinks & she's the cashier too...Sighs~

Superhero posing for the camera! Say cheese, larr~ :)

I like these glass panes that cover part of the theatre. Gives me the feeling like I'm NOT in Singapore. Haha! Speaking of architecural design & stuff...

Yay! We enjoyed the show & we are happy! The music is fantastic (it's by Dick Lee, you know!) and the set & costume design is like wow.... I didn't regret going for the musical though I am broke, STILL! Tsk...and guess what, I got 5 days off, till Wednesday! Bloody hell! I have no money, it's the fasting month & I've got no one to go out with! This is so terrible. Looks like I will need to borrow Nickole's vcds, visit the library or catch up on my beauty sleep. What a waste of my off days! Arggghhh!

Broke!

I spent A LOT this month...I'm so broke that I have to touch my savings for my supposedly Australia trip. Hehe...but I still go for my massage yesterday & I bought something just now to surprise Superhero this weekend. It's been some time since I got off on Saturdays & Superhero scored full marks for his assignment. Maybe we shall go for a mini celebration...or rather, a date. Hmmm....I wish I can tell you what I bought but nah...we all shall wait till this weekend, ok?

If all goes well, the Muslims will start to fast on Sunday. Time for me to lose weight too! Time really flies...it's gonna be Hari Raya again, then Christmas & New Year! Remember the gruesome days I went through as a group co-ordinator? That happened the week after last year's Hari Raya! Gosh...I better start reviewing my goals that I set for myself this year. Before I knew it, I have to do another set soon!

Hady & Jon got intol Final 2! Yay! Tough choice...which one shall I vote? :)

Hit By IMF!

I think I haven't update my blog for almost 2 weeks. Been very busy, or rather, too tired from work. The International Monetary Fund (IMF) event has finally hit Singapore..& I'm so stressed from work that I haven't got the mood to talk about it here. Anyway, i just can't wait for this event to be over.

I managed to meet a few of my friends for dinner last week. Sighs...I owe them lotsa dinners. Haha..my shift always clash with the outings. I still haven't get to meet some of my poly gals & my good internet friend, Naz for some time. Hmm....soon, I hope. :)

I'm broke....what shall I do? Let me pray....Superhero, Superhero, get rich soon!!! Hehe~

My New Ipen!

Like I mentioned previously, I only got to meet Superhero yesterday. We watched the movie "The Devil Wears Prada" at Causeway Point. Sadly, I wasn't feeling well. I went to the doctor after the movie. Anyway, I enjoyed the movie. I love the clothes that Anne Hathaway put on! Gosh...too bad we can't wear those in a climate like Singapore. After the movie & a visit to Raffles Medical, Superhero & I went to have dinner at MOS Burger. Not much appetite..but I had to eat something before popping in the medicine. Superhero then passed me a box...& I saw the Osim logo. He gave me Ipen!! I'm sooo touched. :)






There's a card too! Yeah..work is getting stressful. Pimples are growing & my body is aching. But I'm glad I have my Superhero with me. Thank you for everything! :)

No Life

Joakim is finally out!!! Yay! The moment I heard the news from Superhero, I was so happy that I almost fell off my seat in the train. I celebrate, not by popping a bottle of champagne, but by getting myself a venti size Ice Vanilla Latte from Starbucks! Haha! Although, Jozkim was in the competition for too long & he deserves to be out waaay much earlier, I'm glad he's not in Top 3. There's justice after all. :) I hope Hady wins...HADY MIRZA! I SUPPORT YOU!!!! Oh my god...that's so not me. Haha.

Anyway, I've been busy these few days. Not that I have soooo much things to do but I just don't have the time. It's really sleep & work only. I'm surprised I have time to go for suppers still. Superhero has been busy as well. He has to work & study....assignments & projects. We hardly spend time together. Even if we do, it's just having a meal or him sending me to work. Sighs...I miss my Superhero. :( Gonna meet him for a movie this Sunday. I can't wait!!!
