It's so cold.

My right index finger is so dry that
it feels so rough to touch
when you lightly brush your finger against it.

I hurt my left hand when I was working.
Two drawers of beer crashed together and
clasped the little skin of my palm tightly
till there was clogged blood and a swollen bruise.

Tears welled up in my eyes when it happened.

It hurts like hell.

I wish I can go back home.




Good night, world.

I love...
taking long bus journey.

Sitting at the window seat,
listening to music,
gazing out afar,
taking in the beautiful sights,
I emerge into 'my' little world
and embark on a silent journey.

Sometimes I do reflections.
Sometimes I reminisce past collections.
Sometimes I fantasize on the future.
Sometimes I muse on people, life, love, you, me, they, us.

Alot of times, I daydream.

At the end of the journey,
I am still me.

Oh mine!
Did I just say no more shopping for the next 3 months???

I busted USD200.00 in 3 hours.

(Sigh) That is why I always like to hibernate in my room,
talk to Tigerboy, surf net, watch some Korean or Taiwan drama
and sleep the whole day away,
rather than out there roaming.

Tired, going to sleep.
It's cold in New York.

Greetings from New York City!
It is 16 November, Monday, 12.43pm here.

I am extremely tired.
Been standing for the past 14 hours.

My toe is aching terribly.
Yes, you do read correctly.

My BIG TOE is hurting like hell.

I am not sure am I having ingrown nails or what,
because I have never had this before.

The only way to ease the pain is to lie in bed and do nothing.

Meantime, before I can do that,
I want to reward myself with a good meal
for working so hard.

Going to the hotel restaurant to pack 'lunch' back to my room to eat.
Ciao.

:)

Foreword:
Sometime back, somewhere...
in the northern suburb of Singapore,
a young and promising chef is born.

His best dish: Tantalizing Pork Ribs,
tastes as good as the name is,
and of course is finger-licking good.

He is recently crowned by the author
for being the best cook in Singapore, JB, and some say Batam.

The author, herself is also proud to award him
a life-time voucher for him to cook dinner for the author, herself.


******************************************************

I must commend Tigerboy for the efforts made,
to cook the scrumptious 爱心排骨 and
beehoon soup with the prawns that we caught together for me!

Just like an excited boy, we went to the supermarket
and bought the necessary ingredients.

In split seconds, we were home,
and off he is,
busying himself in the kitchen.

I could do nothing to help much,
for I was not allowed in the kitchen.

With my mouth watering, all I could, was to wait in anticipation.

And not long after, dinner was ready!

One word: OISHII desu!!!

They were all extremely delicious.

The meat is succulent and not only that,

in the food I tasted love, effort, and sincerity too.

I am thankful.

Thankful for all the things he has done.

Thankful for all the efforts he has made.

Thankful for all the love he has given.

If love has a name, then it will be called Tigerboy.

:)

I just made myself a cup of tea and ate two bars of chocolate.

Spent the day packing my luggage, washing and ironing my clothes.

Going off on a eight days trip to New York.
It's been a while since I last went there.
Heard it has turned pretty cold there.
Oh mine, I hate winter.

Actually I have not really finished packing my luggage,
I am still deciding what to bring to wear to NYC!

********************************************

Time flies! It's November!
Sooner, we will welcome and embrace Year 2010.

I received an extremely good news that I want to share with the world.
My BEST friend, Kerine is 2 months pregnant!

Yipppppeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I am so SO SO happy for her!!!!!!!!

*******************************************

I am waiting for my beloved brother to come back home
for I have tasked him to buy a low-fat peach yogurt for me to eat.

Till then, folks!

Tigerboy is sure one lucky boy.


A birthday present all the way from Milan.
