生命

能活着是一种幸福。
今天到了医院探访一位患上不治之症 – 癌症。看着他肿起的脸和身躯,顿时我愣了。。。不会是我走错病房了吧?
这是我第一次接触患上绝症病人。看着他面临死亡,还要忍受身体种种不适,不能进食,更不能喝水,连含着糖果都成问题,实在是太残忍了。他还说:"要走快点走,就不用大家挤在这里。" (T_T) 这不是一般人能够承受得了的痛苦啊!
换成我是他,死亡就是解脱。
对 Mr Potassium 来说,他已是过来人。。。当年18岁的他是如何走出悲伤?
所以从现在起我要好好的活着,珍奇生命,尽力而为,充实自己的人生。
Our best friend

A new member of the family joined us in April, our first co-owned puppy! And his name is Happy!
Happy is a silky terrier and is 4 months old when we got him.
The first week at home was a test of patience and determination, we were new to his needs and I the trainer had to wake up every few hours because he was whining to come out of his cage. We didn’t know that puppies had to pee every few hours! Haha our efforts paid off and Happy was toilet trained by the second week. Hurray!
Now, our boy is coming to 10 months and is the source of our joy, commitment, communication and most crucially our money spender!
Happy now owns 2 sofa beds, a sleep crate, 3 pee cages, numerous toys, 3 broken leash, 2 more still intact leash, a couple of harness and the list goes on. He receives snacks and treats whenever anyone travels eg the ORGANIC treats he got when my bro came back from Australia!
Life is good and busy. We are enjoying ourselves with Happy’s company and I think it made us closer as a couple!

The perks of advanced technology is it’s ability to break barriers and bring the world closer. But, nothing beats meeting up in person.
Hubby is jet setting off again for his monthly trips and it feels so quiet already.
Am I getting too sticky to his presence? Or more reliant or dependent?
Fight this feeling girl. Don’t let emotions pull you down. It will be for the future (if 2012 doesn’t mean the end of the world.)
Graduation
25 Jul 2010 Leave a Comment
In two days I ll be attending convocation, AGAIN. It has been two years of going back to school, mugging for exams, and I’m super relieved that it’s all over! I’m graduating with a Masters in Mass Communication.
Though I can’t be too sure where this further studies certificate can bring me, it has been a very fulfilling learning process.
I made friends and understood myself better. It feels good to know that im not too far off from the others. Grades are not everything, it’s the personal development that I truly feel worth the effort and money!
Maybe people will think it’s stupid to spend a few grands turning my own hair white, why not spend it on watches, bags and fashion, but it’s something the mental fulfillment and self satisfaction that I’m enjoying. This is totally nerdish, but I kinda like studying if not for the exams!
A little peace and quiet

Just last week, I was questioning myself why I got married and whether this whole relationship will stand the test of time. This week, just 3 days without my partner in crime, the answer becomes self-explanatory.
Something is amiss. It feels incomplete, a little too quiet, too peaceful and too orderly. I MISS POTASSIUM!
Being apart this time is different from the usual, because calls are blardy ex at $4.90 per min, there is a four hour time difference and there isn’t much time for Potassium to sleep, much less call home. Hopefully this jet-setting lifestyle slows down in August!
When Potassium is around, I wish for him to be a lot quieter and orderly, now that is is near the South Pole, I thought the house seems too quiet and orderly. Making good use of this time to give myself some good quality ME time. (Which dangerously also translates to a lot of shopping.)

These few days have been very busy and finally a chapter in my life is closed. I’ve left my former work place with mixed feelings because of my ‘family members’ there. I am already missing them. Sigh, but I know our paths will cross again.
Then again, I’m happy I made the decision. Need the rest and mental peace!
Potassium also came back from his China trip on the day I closed the work chapter. It’s good. Everything is falling into place.
Certainly missed the man during his absence
I’ve also been feeling very tired and sluggish. Slept in late today and Potassium decided to cook me a big pot of Black Bean soup to tone up my weak system! The soup was YUMMY!
Tomorrow, he’s going to boil a Ginseng soup. Thanks to my MIL for the simple yet goodie receipes!
OH! Another important update! I received a very expensive gift from the man today!! A watch!! wooohoo!!!!! I even got to decide the model and colour! The watch is sitting in its box and we’re just staring at each another….hehe Read here for an old entry of a casual remark we made some time ago.
Oh oh oh! And not to forget the Poppobe bears he brough back from China! I’ll introduce the rest of the other toys he bought back for me. hee
McDonalds China is definitely doing much better than our Doraemon versions here.
Look how cute they are!

Hey Potassium: I hope you’re not fooling around in China and then spoiling me with these gifts ok!
I’m happy. LALALALALALA…*skips*
What’s wrong?

My self-esteem just plunged to a new low. I have totally no idea why I’ve been so many simple, silly, stupid mistakes recently. One after another despite telling myself to be careful, to check, and to check again.
Despite Potassium reminding me to be careful, I’ve failed him. Sad.
Is it just me? Finding myself increasingly unable to cope with the many hats I need to wear these days. I thought I was coping well, but I was wrong! How wrong can I get with myself? This is tragic.
Somehow my ability to multi-task is slowly losing me. I’m unable to concentrate for long on anything. Two lines into any news, I lose interest. Two lines into my readings, I need to give up.
My heart seems to be everywhere except where it is supposed to be. I need to be here, to be present in the moment. Come back Fluorine! Earth to Fluorine! Helppppp!!!
Am I dying? Are these symptoms to brain degeneration? Is this the result of working in _ _ _? Where did my brains go? Why I am so stupid?
One side of my brain tells me that if stupid were to be personifed, I’m the one.
The other side is telling me to be slow and steady. Nevermind the glares and stress, just give it your best shot and don’t regret.
Depressed.
C-new year resolution

Its been 15 days since 2010 started and this is the second time since I’ve fallen ill in two months.
Taking the much needed physical rest now but the brain is just going on and on and on……images of my piling laundry, incoming emails, impending classes and whatever have you to think about.
It was good friend – SY’s birthday on Monday, Happy Birthday SY! and we managed to meet up for a nice dinner.
To sum things up, here’s my Chinese New Year resolution (because I’m late for New Year):
1) I will be happier I will be more optimistic and take things as they happen.
2) I will be healthier. I will eat healthily and exercise more regularly.
3) I will be a do-er. It’s time to stop procrastinating!
the list will go on for sure…but meanwhile, I need my much needed rest. I’m on MC afterall…:P
冬至(2)

In addition to the earlier entry on Dong Zhi, I was MSN-ing Tammy, who is a huge Korean fan.
Since I had nothing to do, I showed PinkBoy the Sorry Sorry MTV by Super Junior.
Pink says that this song should be athem to Dong Zhi. See 0:15. Sorry Sorry = Soh Yeen Soh Yeen (搓圆). Even Super Junior is seen at 0.15 rubbing their hands like Soh Yeen Soh Yeen (搓圆).
Whahaha…lame I know.
Cooking WeiWei

After much procrastination and with only 1 more semester left for my studies, I guess I don’t have much reasons NOT to learn how to cook.
The Pink one is also on a weight lost regime, so I’ve decided to help him. Here’s my Hearty Macaroni Soup.

Friends, I’m officially appealing for recipes.
