That was what i went as for our Musical Nite 2009 last Friday - a cutie little cat :)


Btw, i love the latest Sally Hansen's nail polish: Insta-Dri. I haven't had time to visit the nail spa lately and had to color my nails at the very last minute. It dried so quickly and the color i had on was 'Sonic Bloom', a lovely pinkish red. In fact there were so many shades of pink that i took a really long time deciding which to buy. Go try it, you can find it at any Watson store and the price is about S$12.90 (i think).

Almost Perfect II

10.18.2009



One of Shane's birthday wish is to always have dinner every year with the two persons that matter most to him on the one important day of his life. He told me so last year. It didn't materialised then but this year, it did. Yes we had dinner with X-man that nite, on Shane's birthday nite.


X-sis (X-man's sis) called to speak to Shane while we were at the restaurant. When she knew we were having dinner with X-man, she was extremely delighted and i could hear it in her gleeful voice. She said, "This is like a happy family again". Yes, to the many strangers that we walked past that nite, to the lovely attentive staffs at The Tavern that nite, indeed, we looked like one. We chatted, laughed, teased Shane, made silly jokes, shared food. It was the perfect setting for a happy family portrait, except we were not what they thought us to be. We were anything but perfect. We were just almost perfect.


This time, Shane did not ask any embarassing question in the restaurant, instead while in the car, he asked us why we were able to talk to each other like friends now?


I did not answer. Nor did X-man. And Shane, being older and slightly wiser than before, did not ask again.

Love of My Life
by Carly Simon

I love lilacs and avocados
Ukuleles and fireworks
And Mia Farrow and walking in the snow
But you've got to know

That you're the love of my life
You are the love of my life
You are the love of my life
You are the love of my life

From the moment I first saw you
The second that you were born
I knew that you were the love of my life
Quite simply the love of my life

I love Lucy and pumpernickel bread
The Statue Of Liberty and chocolate ice-cream
And falling into bed
But get it through your head

That you're the love of my life
You are the love of my life
You are the love of my life
You are the love of my life

From the moment I first saw you
The second that you were born
I knew that you were the love of my life
Quite simply the love of my life

You are the love
The great love of my
Of my life


Why Oh Why??

Finally, my schedule for the rollout next year is confirmed. I'll be gone for almost a month in January. I don't dread the work but i hated to be away from Shane, i am begining to seriously wonder how am i to last that long without him? It's already killing me now thinking of that.


Yes, if you don't know already, my life revolves around my son. There's no one i love more than him.


I know i am definitely gonna max out my mind thinking about him constantly. Fortunately there is 3G phone and webcam altho i doubt i'll be happy with that but i know i ought to be thankful at least. Shane will be just starting his Primary 3, attending the morning session for the first time and i don't know how my babybird will cope with this transition without mommy being there?


Oh, why can't money just drop from the sky??


Farmville

9.05.2009



So i skip the whole month of August and finally i'm back on my blog only to post an entry on Farmville? Am i so frivolous?? Yes i am, and i want to show off a bit on what a wonderful farmer i am on Farmville :)


This game is actually a good way to relieve my mind off the servers, off the deployment schedule, off the-many-things that are fast taking over my sanity.


So, this is me, on Farmville...am i cute? Please say Yes. Humour me, will you? Oh, com'on...


FV-me


I recently dyed my hair a lighter brown, hence the choice of this hair colour, it's call 'Light Brown Flippy Hair' on Farmville and since my actual hair can't be so thick and flowy, i am glad to at least 'own' it on FV :)


This is my farm, a 20x20 plot.
















I 'trapped' my girl in the middle of the hay bales so that i can 'harvest', 'plow' and 'plant' faster. She walks too slow na.


Farmville is on Facebook, go play.
