Jumper

I went to watch Jumper on Friday.

There was one scene where Hayden Christiansen and Rachel Bilson were having coffee in Rome outside the Pantheon.

I squealed to Jem, "Hey I did exactly the same thing in Rome!"

And then it kinda hit me.

My life is kinda like a Jumper's life. Here one day. Another place the next.

Except it takes me a hell lot longer to get there and I'm a hell lot more tired.

And it definately ain't as cool.

Happy 4th Birthday Joshie!

Celebrated Joshua's 4th Birthday today! :)

Lots of food, balloons, a Thomas the Engine birthday cake and of course, lots of toys!

I can't believe what big boy he is already...

It's scary how time has just flown by just like that.

Oh and of course, everyone was fussing over the new addition to our family.

My heart totally melted when I carried sweetie-pie Ashley.

*Honk* *Sniffle*

Its seven in the morning here in Paris.

I'm stuck in my room with a roll of tissues in one hand and an inhaler stuck my nostril.

What a pretty sight. ;p

On a happier note, I discovered a Longchamp store just opposite my hotel!

I totally stumbled upon it while walking aimlessly around.

My mum wanted the handbag but I told her I din feel like searching all over Paris for it with a dripping nose.

I like chance discoveries. :)

Some Things Just Ain't Worth It...

I woke up on Tues with a huge zit.

Then I started to get a little tickle in my throat.

The tickle turned into a horrid scratchiness.

Now the blocked nose and the coughing has begun.

This is just not worth the 5 little Kinder Bueno Chocolate balls and the handful of pistachio nuts I ate on Monday.

Why does my body just reject anything remotely unhealthy??

Okok.. I know everybody's screaming into their computer screens now, "Coz you're unhealthy and you dun excercise and you eat rubbish you idiot!"

Look, I know, k?

I'm just in denial.

Oh, and I've been singing all day, just coz I like to hear myself with a hoarse voice sing funny. And once my voice cracks, I end up giggling to myself. :)

I think it's funny wat. ;p

Sugar Overload

If there is one thing I have to say about the Turks, it's that they LOVE their sugar.

I admit I have a really sweet tooth. But they, my God, have sweet teeth.

;p

Nevertheless I had a really great time eating loads of turkish snacks. Baklava, deep fried oysters, some sort of pistachio nut paste (WHICH WAS SO BLOODY SWEET I TELL U...), apple tea and even drinking freshly squeezed pomegranate juice by the road side!

*coughs out sugar cube*

Istanbul!

Let's go Makan!! :)


Alex and Me... I can't believe a year had passed since we last did Venice together!



Traditional Turkish Apple Tea! Love the cups!


Baklava attack! Honestly.. I ate most of it. The rest found it too sweet, but I lurrvvee.


Some kinda warm pistachio paste. 90% sugar, 10% pistachio. Anybody got any idea what it's called? We couldn't even finish one teenie cup between the four of us.

Oh, and anybody read Page 4 of today's Straits Times?

First we had one guy calling pizza and KFC deliveries.

Now we have porn and vindictive, face slapping wives.

It really felt quite strange when I walked through the cabin and everyone's newpaper was opened to Page 4.

And a lady walked by me today, pointed and squealed in Mandarin, "Ni Hen Mei!" and poked her finger into my dimple.

I blur sia.

What a surreal day.

YOU LITTLE *&$&)@!!!

My neighbour's kid is playing "Jingle Bells" on his recorder non-stop.

I mean.. isn't it like, totally the wrong SEASON??!

It's Chinese New Year you little twerp.

*breaks recorder in half*

Oh, and last night I weighed myself and I'm like 46.9kg! (Fine.. i know its like only 0.1kg from 47kg.. but still!)

Oh to see the blessed no. 46 again after so long..... And I wasn't even dieting! *whee*

The strange bit is that I've been steadily losing weight since last year.. I was 5okg and now im 47kg.

Maybe I'm dying.

Why Men Should Always Listen to Their Wives/Girlfriends

Why?

COZ WE ARE ALWAYS RIGHT.

And I have proof 'k!!!

Two years ago, Jem and I were leaving for a night flight to Bangkok for a 5-day holiday.

For reasons I cannot phantom, he insisted on playing soccer that very morning.

I told him not to, in case he hurt himself. He promised he would NOT play. And of course.. Jem being the naughty fellow he is, played.

And as guessed, he hurt his leg. He spent the next five days limping all over Bangkok while I nagged his poor ears off.

Now a couple of days ago, Jem excitedly told me he would be going to Pasir Gudang just before Chinese New Year.

I told him it wasn't a good idea in case anything happened blahblahblah...

He insisted nothing would happen blahblahblah....

HAH! As you can guess Mr. Speed Demon let his ego get in the way and he skidded on the track and buanged his car.

I had a very sheepish Jem calling me while I was in Dubai. Now his heart hurts so bad coz his precious car is all bruised and battered.

I was trying SO HARD not to say the words, "I TOLD YOU!! I TOOOLLDD YOOOUU!!!!!"

;p

But I WILL say this..

Dar, Thank God it's only your car and nothing else happened to you.

*hug*

Oh and apparently Jem told me the first thing that popped into his head after the crash was, "Geri's gonna KILL me."

I take it as a good sign. I have instilled "The Fear" in him. Wahahaha.... ;p

Dum dee dum..
