Realised that I have not blog for the entire week. The truth is that I am blogging today wif a bloated n upset stomach. Not surprising due to the amount of rich food I have taken throughout the weekend since Wednesday nite.
It has been a busy week, hitting off with a pre Xmas dinner cum gift exchange with my secondary school mates. We had dinner @ Cartal in Marina, tot that my gift was the best deal ~ Exchanged 1 for 2 leh. With took quite alot of photos throughout and yes, urs truely was again appointed the photographer. Tot that the photos turned out pretty well though, hmm... might consider turning myself semi professional bah... whahaha... The highlight was off course the Christmas weekend.
My relative's granddaughter got married on Friday, and the dinner was held in Oriental Hotel. I was quite impressed with the food and setup though, and find that its one of the better weddings I have attended so far. From the deco to the wedding albums, the services to the food. Off course everything nice comes with a price ... haha
Spent the entire Saturday doing chores at home. Could pass myself off as a handyman actually. Service the toilet, chairs, etc ... washed the floor in the afternoon befor hitting the gym. Its a new record bah, spending almost 2 hours on cardio and free weights. Went to buy Jun's Xmas present at BP b4 heading down to Orchid Hotel to meet darling n Pink for dinner.
Its actually the first time I get to meet up wif PINK. Think that its rare to see the close bondings between frenz whom know each other since sec school. Though I was the only guy there that nite together with 8 gals, they allowed me to settle in quite comfortably. With the lame jokes, to the bubbly laffs, everyone of them have their own unique characteristics. People around should be damn jealous bah, seeing me actually surrounded by so many mei nu.
Will continue wif part to later on ....

Did not blog for a couple of days. Suppose to meet up with a malaysian classmate in PS on last Saturday for coffee, and guess wat? She broke my all time record, by being the first person to let me wait for 1&1/2 hrs! Honestly, trying to test my patience huh... I was pretty piss off initially, but seeing her eyes almost in tears and dispair, and her thousands of apologies, melted my heart ler. So its true ... hmm, I can never have a stone heart. So just forget it lor, n don't be so small gas & must be da4 fang1 abit -.-"
But anyway, seeing Yun after tat cooled me down quite abit though. She never fails to cheer me up ler, with her million dollar Ms Sunshine Smile! haha... (p.s. though she was still not feeling well)
We had dinner @ MindsCafe, which I honestly thinks is a place that suits darling best. No sun, no need to walk too much, can seat at 1 spot n play games + eat/drink all day. Just only the hands, mouth and brain exercise leh (^_^) In fact I quite like it too. Looks like its going to be one of our hang out zones in future bah ... haha!
Watched King Kong later tat evening. I was amazed that it was a sold out crowd. I recalled myself 2 weeks back saying something like its lame to see T Rax Wrestling with Kong, but ended up seeing ,myself n Yun straining our necks in the 3rd front row, wif our eyes glued fix to the screen.
Mixing Animal behaviours together with human instincts are always touching and emotional. What impressed me most was how alike apes are as compared to humans. The actor of Kong actually travelled to Africa to stay for some time to study the behaviours of apes and gorillas, their movements, facial expressions ...etc. Verdict is thumbs up to Kong!

Ate hairy crabs for the first time the other day. My dad's golf Karkie brought them back from his business trip to China and gave some to him. The tricky part is... its raw -.-" n we have no idea on how to cook them. So we ended up dumping all of them into the steamer for 20mins, added some garlic to remove the fishy smell, and hope tats its cook lor, keeping our fingers cross to see who would end up the first to run to the toilet. =P
Yun is sick, the flu bug is not all over the place lah. Darling ah, remember to take your medicine on time, drink lots n lots of water, have plenty of rest! Think hor I have said this statement at least 10 times liaoz this week. I am sure she is quite sick of hearing it -.- Suddenly feel as though I am super naggy... worst than an old man..
The highlight this week is off course Yun being Zhong Li Ti lookalike. What can I say, super flattered and proud of u lor... haha... But hor, Zhong Li Ti like already 30++ liao leh, n got kids somemore ...hmm ... Went to her website to look at her pics just now, think hor, yun looks better lah =p
Glad that she likes her attachment lah, think its very important to enjoy wat you r doing bah. Its the best way to improve and grow!
I starting writing this blog 2 days ago, and until now I am still writing the same blog, so this could be the summary of the entire weeks blog bah.
Tok about presents, from now till 7th January, I would have 2 wedding dinners, 2 christmas lunches, 2 pre christmas dinners, and 1 post christmas dinner. And I haven bought a single gift for Xchange yet. This time round is my turn to organise my MINDEF induction group get together session. Have sent out all the emails today, so apart from doing my principle work, I was a part time co-ordinator wif loads of emails flooding my mailbox. So far the response is quite good, so I would be expecting almost full attendance this time bah ...whahaha :)
Still considering if I should host a birthday bash on my hatch day. Like wat some of my friends would say, my bdays every year never fail to look like some grand occassion. Hah! This time round would be held in a function room with buffet spread bah. Invitations would be to all family, friends and relatives. Think its going to be quite X .... still pending.....

Looks like my darling have a great liking for large diamonds huh .... can u believe it, now I actually see myself doing research work on diamonds. Learned quite abit from it though, n it might prove useful for future use bah ... haha. So far, the largest I have came across is a 4.3 caret diamond, it is custom made and must be ordered from overseas. Had a look at the website, and it did impressed me quite abit on their designs.
Here are my other findings...
3 caret diamond ring from EBay cost US$25000
(enuff to buy a 1.6l car leh-.-")
3.45 caret princess diamond customised cost almost $52000 "DUH"
Its not the size of the diamond that is valuable, but the number of cuts and how precise the cuttings, that makes them valuable. So darling, must reaccess liaoz... haha
(ps. i am not being sour grapes lor, but the large ones look very bulky and rough in design, somehow or rather, I still like the small elegant ones =P)
The truth is that after looking through Yun's Wish list few days back, my morale has hit rock bottom leh. Not because of the fantastic sparkling price tags, but because the fact is I have already bought Yun's Christmas present long before this list came about, and it does not meet any her wish list lor, in fact nothing close to it at all. N now I am abit embarrass to pass it to her during Christmas, it is not as practical as it looks lor(-.-)"
For me leh, I am quite easily contented bah. Any little gifts Yun buys for me would be cherished as though they r bao3, and I would be very happy liaoz ... haha. My wish list is a joke lah, everything inside is so X, wo3 dou1 bu4 sher3 de2 mai3 lah =P Furthermore, u r not working yet darling, so don't spend too much money lor.... Hmm ... I would choose my last option lah, no need DHL, I come carry by hand can liaoz .. haha
(p.s My preference would be 3 separate gifts on 3 different occasions instead of all lump together as one though... haha. I love surprises mah ;p)
Looks like I have to start running liaoz. Took a 1 week break from the gym and Yun said that my face became rounder and I have grown fatter liao -.-" so fast... if i don't do anything about it, I would be the one ending up looking like a pig!
Okay end of Monday blues, another 4 days to go! Ming2 Tian1 de4 Ming2 Tian1 hui4 gen4 hao3 ...... Jia You ba ! =)

I have always considered myself as a person who thinks alot. Like what Yun always tells me, "Ni3 xiang3 tai4 tou1 le4!" Think by nature I am like that, always planning far ahead for the future.... I admit this is not common for guys of my age, but thats just ME :)
To provide, to support and to love, are what I call my 3 foundation blocks which are implanted in the bottom of my heart. To provide is to be unselfish and have an open heart ...able to give if i can afford , To support is to maintain stability physically, mentally and financially, To love is what Yun knows best, so to prevent anymore hair raising situations, she would answer that for me, cause I have already given it to her from Day 1. hahaha... Don't worry darling, I will never forget !!!
Here it goes, my christmas' wish list.
1. Adidas customise Running shoes,
2. A laptop, preference are those that are small and light,
3. A watch,
4. Hush Puppies working shoes,
5. Yun wrapped up in a present. haha =p
Compiled Yun's wish list too.... the realistic ones!
1. (DVD/VCD/CD)-R/RW Hi-Fi Combo Set
2. 25" LCD Plasma TV p.s just checked it out, really cost 4 figures -.-"
3. Watch (Will go down Suntec to see, but definately not Cartier lor)
4. Might really end up wrapping myself up and get DHL to send by hand.

Its not common that I start writing my blog so early in the morning. Not even 9am yet ... n my engines are not warmed up. Will be a long day today, lessons till 6pm bah and have exam tomorrow afternoon for certification. Come to think of it, I can't really imagine myself being a student again next year, looking at the state I was dozing off during class yesterday. The lessons were super dry lor .... haizz, think I am going to suffer liaoz!
Yun said that she gets hungry very easily when she is working. I did not protest lor, told her before that even if she ends up looking like a pig, I still want lah ... haha p.s darling ah, still think that u should pass 400 gms of cookies to me leh. U take 100gms enuff liaoz. Cookies very heaty one, my recovery rate is faster lah, so I can eat more =p
Looks like most of my colleagues are going on leave, seems to be a trend that everyone clears leave on the end of the year. Office looks so empty and quiet , but very peaceful to get my work done lor.
Heard a terrible news this morning. ManU lost in their final game to Benfica in Portugal. This means that they would be knocked out of the Champions league. Worst of all, they would not even get a spot in the UEFA Cup -.-" I was shell shocked by the outcome of the result, guess this is the cruel nature of football bah.
K, have to get back to work liao, if have the time, I would blog later bah. Jia You!

This weekend is rather hectic and tiring, but fruitful though. It all begins on Saturday morning when Guoheng woke me up from my sleep. Yes... I overslept! Suppose to meet him for gym session @ 9.30am, but ended up sleeping till 10 -.-" Still, we had a great workout,n a great vegetarian buffet lunch after tat lah!
Its quite odd to see liang ge da nan ren go out shopping in Orchard together, but tats excatly wat we did lor. GH wanted to buy some christmas presents, so I accompanied him to gave some opinions and comments. The funny thing is, it was me who ended up buying more stuffs -.-" My last blog chalked up quite a number of items in my shopping list. My customised running shoe would cost between $269 to $299 bucks! and my sunglasses would cost me a whopping $235 bucks. Verdict: I MUST BE CRAZY TO SPEND SO MUCH ON SHOES N SHADES.
Went back to Marathon Expo again to check out some of the running accessories. Its not my nature to advertise, but I would highly recomand NEAT 3B Action Cream to all those Runners out there. It sort of helps prevent Sweat Rash & Chafing (abrasion) p.s. I am not earning any commisions for this lor, its just a preference...
Yesss ... The day has come. 42.195KM Standard Chartard Marathon. An international event which attracts thousands of professional runners all around the world. Its really an eye opener today to see some of the elite runners fly pass me (in the opposite direction i mean -.-) Think they have completed the race even before I reach the halfway mark.
The weather was terribly hot today, think its one of the toughest run I have ever completed. Suffered from muscle cramps on and off along the way, but with the huge supply of ice mountain, 100 plus, 1 banana and a power gel, I somehow managed to shake it off to complete the race. The finishing was great, really looked like a superstar as I approached the finishing line lah. With all the cheers from the crowd on both sides, and the cameras flashing away in front, I was almost flying lah... haha A very proud moment to remember bah! =)My timing was approximately 5 hours and 50 minutes bah, not a fantastic time, and I would look foward to clock a better timing next year.
After almost 6 hours of gruelling endurance running, tears weld up my eyes as I clutch onto my priceless finishers medal and T-shirt. p.s the tears part is abit kua1 zhang1, the truth is I was totally exhausted and my legs were shaking like jelly then.
Yun brought me some egg rolls from Malaysia in the afternoon. Its also the first time I really got to meet her dad, mum and da mei face to face in person. Heard from Yun tat the comments from her dad on me is quite favourable leh ... haha Danny, Yao Jia You lor!!!!
First day @ work for Yun tomorrow. Enjoy urself lah darling! =p
Haizz ... its the end of the day again. Going back to work tomorrow would be tricky considering myself walking worst than an old man now. I am seriously surviving on deep heat now to ease the pain. Anyway, its a long week ahead, going to zzzz......

Today marks the 2nd Month of Yun n Me ... to be exact 9 weeks ... 63 days! Thanks for everything u have done for me darling, time really flies and I have cherished every moment of it, and would definitely cherish the many more infinite years to come... Okay, all the mushy stuffs would stop down here. Anything more mushier would be or have been privately spoken to liaoz =) p.s. This is to prevent anymore hairstanding issues from arising, especially when I have more & more ppl reading my blog now ;)
Before I forget, better blog down the shortest & cheapest way to get home from Yun's place. Drive up to KJE and exit via woodlands. I just realised that this route could save me up to $2.50 per trip. Thats alot of money in the long run la.
Played badminton again after work. This time round I really got trashed up. Never knew there are so many badminton experts in my company. Haizz ... high time I brush up my skills abit. So embarassing to be beaten soundly by ppl almost twice my age -.-"
Went down to Marathon Expo @ Suntec just now to collect my entry pack. Hmm ... the adidas running attire is not bad looking, might go down town tomorrow to look for a good pair of shades to match it.. haha Just found out that Adidas also make running shoes customised to the runner's feet. Might consider making 1 pair for myself too bah. Looks like its going to be big spending this christmas =p
Still thinking of what to get for Yun tis Christmas .........

Here I am sitting in front of my office PC stoning. Think this is the after lunch-time effect ba. Don't know why, but can't really concentrate today -.-" There are just simply too much things on my mind right now and its giving me a splitting headache. Hmm... its already 1st of December, and its already the end of the year, soon I would have to start writing a new set of new year resolutions liaoz!
I was on leave for the last 2 days to have some personal time for myself and yun. She just finished her exams on Monday, and I am now praying hard that she does okay lah ... hah. Made a trip down to SP on Tuesday morning to beg my lab tech to help me debug and service my stupid labtop after months of unfruitful struggle. Felt abit lame though, going down to visit him only when my labtop has problems. Haizz, this time round must buy him a meal liaoz. Anyway, I made the most of my trip down to poly... going back to visit BS, had lunch @ canteen 5, and looked up my project Sup. for a chit chat session. Toked about life, work, studies ... and my dreams! etc .... it was lightening and refreshing. =)
It always amazed me howYun never fails to bring a smile on my face. I have promised her from day one that I would want to see her happy and make her laff or at least smile everyday! Now it seems that she is doing a better job than me! =p
Yun was at my place yesterday lazing around. Juno got abit jealous of her as I have giving my attention to her n not him! He was still sulking all the way even after I reach home that evening n totally ignoring me. I think that spending personal time together at home is sometimes better than going down to the city all the time .... More privacy to be exact! =) Think Yun would agree too bah.
