I was out and about going to all sorts of places. Took quite a lot of pictures and it's time to post and share it with whoever cares.
On Sunday my family and I decided to go to Lau Pa Sat. But before heading there we headed to Clarke Quay and it was an apportunity for me to take nice pictures. So these are what I've got.
The rest of the pictures are on facebook.
Yesterday Effa and I went on an on-the-verge-of-the-oment trip to Changi beach just for the purpose of taking pictures and just taking on the wind,sun,sand and waves. It was such a beautiful day and I was lying down on the mat reading a book. There was such a beautiful sky and I was in love with the clouds.

I think I know why I have not been sleeping well the last few days. I think it's prolly because of my back. More specifically the back of my right shoulder. It's been hurting for quite a while and last night I got mum to give me a massage and boy it was painful. So painful that just at the touch of my hand on the back of my shoulder left me wincing.
After the painful massage I find myself rarely tossing and turning in the middle of the night...bliss!!!

First...I got my laptop back! Yipee! I'm so happy. Have to fork out $75 but it's ok.
Second, Yanping and I went shoping yesterday. We had lunch with Ben before heading down to Marina Square. We were crossing the road when the heel of my shoe got stuck in a hole and the thong broke! So it means, in default, new shoes!
So when we went to Marina Square, I know which shoe I want to get so we head down to Novo and I was so glad the shoes was on 30% off. Lucky me! Yanping was in a christmasy,merry,foxy mood and she was smiling all the way. Look at her!
I had an idea this morning to take a picture of all my footwear and after counting I have 20!

The had finally arrived for me to go and explore 313@Somerset. That day was yesterday and my main reason of going there was to shop at Uniqlo magastore. It's huge and i spend about $55 on turtleneck sweaters and a long sleeve shirt oh plus super comfortable leggings.
One other reason why Marina and I decided to go walk down Orchard Road was because we would like to take pictures of the bright Christmas lights. This is something I've not done before because I never had a camera until now. Here are some pictures that I took.
This evening, was an impromptu dinner at Changi Village. I took my camera along with me and insisted that we go to the beach after eating. So I took pictures and my favourite by far is this one of the sunset and it is now my Facebook profile picture!
As I was walking towards the beach, the breeze was like a lullaby and the air smell so salty but it was comforting. Maybe a day out at the each won't be so bad afterall...

I was doing some small cleaning up and chanced upon a greeting card. It was from my ex-colleagues. It says: "Sorry you're leaving. Good luck and remember to keep in touch."
Almost everyone had written their well wishes wishing me good luck and all the best in pursuing my dream. I knew that I had a big smile on my face as i re-read all the nice written messages from them. It's nice to know that I've made a positive impact in someone's life and am appreciated in some ways.
The people I've met and worked with during my almost 4 years in the bank have some sort made me the person I am today. I hope that I will remain friends for life with some of these people because they are worth keeping. It's always important to keep in touch, to remain relevant in someone else's life because when the time comes, you need your friends and it's best to have them near you.

Sometimes it gets to a point where I'm really sick of being responsible. I'm not very responsible I'm just responsible and it's this "being the eldest" shit that makes me sick. Does being the eldest entitles me to the responsible title? Why can't someone else take over? I'll give it up if it means that I can do whatever I want without caring what other people would say.
It gets tired when you know that you have to do something because no else can't or no one else doesn't want. When others want to have fun and I couldn't because I'm stuck to pleasing people and not thinking about myself. I would love to have a change sometimes. I'll go out everyday and you stay at home. Everytime I brought this up it doesn't mean people will listen. They'll just nod their heads and then ignore me. Can i just knock your head with a wooden spoon?
Open your eyes, look around and you'll realise that the world does not revolves around you. It's time to think about how and what other people and maybe you should also start thinking about after life.
Someone please get me out of this freaking role that I so wanna give up!

One year ago I was in Cappadocia and it was 9AM. We just had our hot air balloon trip and a few hours later snow would be falling down and I will be awed by the crystal clear shapes of the snowflakes. I would be hugging myself trying to keep warm and my fingers felt numb even when it was covered by gloves.
It's hard not to get emotional thinking about Turkey. I love being there so much I wanna go there again. I hope to do that next June and I have to really save up this time. It's also time to start planning because this time around we'll be on our own and I can hardly wait. Seven more months and I could be on my dream vacation!

Most times, we really have to take whatever life gives us because we never know what it will lead to. It may sucks most time because the purpose of throwing you that problem was to test if you could handle life's downs. If you could, you'd be surprise at how the outcomes will bring you. It may not be something that you thought of however it will bring you life's greatest pleasures; life's ups.
So when you are thrown into something that tests you to your upper limits, grab it with an eager hand, an enthusiastic spirit and a daring personality. You'll be really surprise by what it makes you and what it will give you.

There is just something about the love between best friends that attracts me. It breaks my heart when Bella chose to be with Edward and not Jacob, her best friend who was with her when Edward left. 'Where Rainbow Ends' by Cecelia Ahern and My Best Friend's Wedding are some of my favourite stories because of the best friend element.
Maybe it's because I've went through such a relationship myself and I believed in it. But of course, my story end the way 'My Best Friend's Wedding' did. I will always support this kind of relationship because I believe it could work.
