Gratitude

Saturday, November 9, 2013

One of the most beautiful videos I've seen. "You think this is just another day in your life, it's not just another day, it's the one day that is given to you, today, it's given to you. It's a gift, it's the only gift that you have right now"  "The only appropriate response if gratitude."  "Let the gratefulness overflow into blessings around you. Then it will really be a good day."&nbs...

Lucky Thursday

Friday, April 26, 2013

I've got to be the luckiest person on this planet earth. With the best kind of friends to boot. Was heading out to lunch with my friend at her workplace (about a 15 min bus ride away from my office) and I was running terribly late. The bus was delayed and traffic at the main road was badddd. "If someone would give me a lift man." I thought to myself. Just as I was about to give up and head over to the cab stand, a car pulled over and the driver shouted for me to get in. It was Timothy (and his...

Oh you little cutie

I was smiling to my phone this morning on the way to work when I noticed a little boy standing just right in front of me. He was staring up at me, giggling at the same time. I caught his eyes and smiled back, while his face brightened up, he shyly looked away before turning back again. "Why are you giggling?" I asked, my desire to burst out laughing was almost impossible to hide by now because he was soooooo adorable and I surprised myself by even asking him that. "Because you look happy" he replied...

Good day

Wednesday, January 16, 2013

I've been waking up to ridiculously good mood these few days and I have no explanation for it. Maybe it's the lack of sleep or maybe it's having too many cookies at work. Or maybe there's no real reason at all. Hahahaha. Just got my new laptop at work and everything is smooth like butter. The screen is amazing too. I can't wait to finish all my papers and models! Hahaha. I'm feeling extra productive today too. Maybe I will bring the new baby home and have some fun customizing it. As you can tell,...

Smile

Thursday, December 27, 2012

I love going for Hot Yoga. Or rather, I feel connected with my instructor. "Smile. Smile while you breathe, smile while you are in pose. Smile while doing everything, just like life". This statement of his used to get my on nerves all the time, especially when I'm struggling to move/stretch muscles that I never knew I own. 3 months on, I decided I had enough of getting frustrated with imperfect postures and that it doesn't matter if I lose my balance or make a fool of myself. So yesterday I made...

I'm extremely stuffed from all that Christmas food at home - so that's day 4 of my state of food coma. Will be locking myself in the gym next week man. Hahaha. Don't get me wrong, I'm still grateful for the company of all these amazing people in this festive season :) Oh yes, the food and gifts too :) Hurhur.  Amid all the eating, drinking, partying and gift receiving/giving, it's also time of the year to give thanks for all the amazing things that have taken place in the last 11 months...

Gifts for yourself this Christmas :)

Monday, December 24, 2012

It's 1 hour to Christmas and I'm home here typing a blog entry. Hahaha. I just finished 2 rounds of Christmas celebrations with (clearly) 2 separate groups of people. I'm supposed to head west for another celebration but too much food has rendered my system a little too uncomfortable :( And that explains why I'm home early and having an old fart kinda Christmas celebration - curled up on the sofa with TV and laptop. Hurhur. Oh and a glass of warm water too. Hahaha. While you gift yourself expensive...

Meet Mylo!

Can I give thanks again about how LUCKY I am?! A few months ago, I met Nikon V1 for the first time at a gathering. I fell in love with it at first sight. I love how light it is compared to a DSLR, but yet still able to produce some really gorgeous shots. "How much does this retail at?" I asked the golden question. My ex-colleague replied "I bought it at $1,200. including the lens". My heart fell, there's no way I would spend a 4-figure sum on a camera (well unless I'm earning 5-figure monthly!...

I'm one lucky girl :)

Sometimes God/the universe has a way of telling you, "Yes, I've always been here for you. " Had a dinner appointment with my dear girls at Fika (along Arab Street) earlier this evening. It's about 15 minutes by foot from Bugis train station and it's not the most difficult place to get to. But I had one problem - it was raining and I didn't have an umbrella. I was already an hour late for my dinner and there was no way I can afford to wait for the rain to stop. So I stepped out into the drizzle...

Things that puts me in a good mood

Sunday, October 14, 2012

A good dinner. Girly time at the nail parlour. Really smooth legs and feet. OPI's Log on to love. Lied to pedicure lady about my heritage because she refused to believe I'm Chinese. Now she's convinced that my dad is a product of Vietnam war and my mum is a Middle-east and Chinese hybrid (it's quite fun but don't think I wanna do that again). And generally grateful how good life has been treating me :) Blogged from my iPhone...

Thank you :)

Some great things have happened. Some not so great ones too. All in all, I am grateful for awesome friends and sincere company who knows what to say and offer at the those moments. Thank you to all. And to the greater power above (yes I know you are there), thank you too :) Will elaborate when work is not up my eyeballs :...

Being grateful

Saturday, September 1, 2012

Today I want to talk about gratefulness. For the good things that has happened so far. I spoke previously about a favourable piece of news but didn't elaborate much on it as I had to deal with some personal affairs and plus I had yet to sign it yet. Since it has been confirmed and signed, I think its safe to talk about it :) YAY I HAVE OFFICIALLY SIGNED ON THE DOTTED LINE FOR MY NEW ROLE!!!! It took quite some time between the verbal offer and final amendments of details of the contract....

Favourable piece of news

Friday, August 24, 2012

I just got a call that I've been waiting for. YAY! Will elaborate more later tonight. Hurh...
