Updates

*yawn* it’s been a lazy day so far. I so lack zzzz… I stayed over at my maiden’s last night cos Hus was away for reservist and we hung out late at my grant aunt’s wake.

It’s the first time I went back to sleep after I got married. It doesn’t feel like before cos there’s too much reshuffling after I left. Sista and Tao Rong took over my room and I have to sleep in Sistie’s. They’ve thrown away my mattress and I slept on Sistie’s pre-upgraded one… a little too soft for me… I just like my own home, nothing wrong with my old home. I still love it and thankful that Daddy gave us a big place for our big family. I love Daddy and Mummy.

I was thinking abt Hus just before I sleep, Hus is enjoying himself very much with his garang scouts. He dint even have time to miss me or think of me… hmmp! :p

==================================================================================










I had a pretty good weekend which might be the reason why work feels dreadful. It began with a dinner with Hus at Pepper Lunch Suntec City. I love the food served there, if you like Tepanyaki, you’ll like Peper Lunch as well.

Look at how hus is enjoying his Sirloin Steak on hotplate and rice… yummy!

After dinner is solo-shopping again, I bought 2 bras… hee hee. So long never buy bra le. *no pix for these, =p*
=============================================================================


On Saturday, it started pouring at dawn. But that dint stop me from meeting Yuli and Levi for lunch. It’s been a very long time since I saw Yuli. She’s now teaching PE at Jurong Primary School, our primary school.

We met at Soup Spoon, Paragon, for lunch…

Check out our sumptuous lunch… that’s hell lot of food for 3 persons… so we dint finish everything on the table… We packed away, no food wastage ;)















Show you a cute boy who sat beside us…
So CUTE!!!

Then Levi had to sell Yuli some policies… maybe that’s the reason he asked us out. We went over to Bakerz Inn for Tea…

This is my tea, I like the colour, and the tangy sourish after taste. Clean and refreshing; like a warm ribena.

So nice!!!


Then Yuli went off to meet her Boyfriend for a cell-group… A couple who’s in God…BLESS them! Couldn’t be happier to know another Christian couple.

Then Levi and I shopped around since it’s still early to pick up Lionel… I always feel worried abt being alone with Levi, cos I afraid to bump into FCCS regulars; their creativity writes interesting stories… Worse still, made those thoughts lunch talks. Levi and I are good friends for real, together with the cliques, invincible CRAPS!

Introducing Levi’s new car… bad shots though, please forgive my photography skills.


Subaru WRX... with Modifications... This car made Levi go hungry... maintenance is high!


Goodbye Lionel
We picked Lionel and Yue Fen up. Yue Fen is a stewardess, and she’s flying off the San Francisco 30 mins before Lionel’s flight to Sydney. Lionel is gonna be studying for the next 4 yrs in University of Sydney. His folks want him to come back as little as possible to save on traveling… Yucky feeling for him I guess, he keep complaining that he has stingy parents… His sister is paying for this trip and education, alright? I wonder if I can be a sister like that too…

But Lionel is a rich kid, stays in Bt Timah Terrace. 5-storey high with 10 toilets…but stingy parents apparently.

I hope Lionel does well for his education; he’s been too unmotivated previously. Haven really put in much effort in school.

Kevin is graduating from UQ end of the year; he invited me to join him to dive at Great Barrier Reef with him before he comes back… Argh… I really feel like going, and Hus isn’t keen since he dove that before… Can I dive then make a trip to Canberra to visit the Chengs altogether?

The sending off took the whole evening, after that I left with Mel. We headed to town in an ultra congested traffic as there was National Day rehearsal and this year they are doing a really big celebration at the Marina. ECP is super jammed, so is all the roads that get us to town. But Mel and I saw Fireworks in the car… so nice, so pretty! Fireworks never fail to put a smile on my face and a tinge of thankfulness in my blessed life. I love God.

Mel and I went on separate ways once we hit town, I did my shopping before heading home. Urgh… I actually got home later than Hus. Even knowing that, I still took slow small steps to get home. A new breezy walk towards a man who isn’t keen to see me… sigh big time… I texted him, “unless you say you miss me, I’m not going home soon.” Completely NO reply… BIG SIGH!

=========================================================================


Sunday, we went to FCCS together, Hus is off. The 1st time since we’re married, appearing together in FCCS. So I was happy that I needn’t answer “where’s your husband? Working even on Sundays?” FIL was overjoyed to see Hus turning up outside church. I could see the “Parable of the Prodigal Son” right before my eyes. FIL always like us to come to FCCS, despite knowing that Hus is little interested in church affair and the preaching.

I tried my bestest to keep Hus awake, I still failed. It’s already quite an interesting preacher…


Hus + Mandarin + 11am service = zzzz

Equation actually works for FIL as well… 11am is actually a good time to sleep especially when you wake up around 8am or earlier.

After Service, we had lunch with FIL before he rushed back home with packed lunch for BIL and gf… He dropped us back in church to watch the yf-ers play soccer and the “pitch”.

It seems like a good tool for evangelism. We attracted a lot of attention and 4 from Nigeria joined in, while some Chinese boys stood by somewhere to watch us play.


Just before Hus was drenched in perspiration just from watching the game, the game ended and he headed to VivoCity. Hus got a hair-cut then we did grocery shopping… He’s gonna leave me alone at home for the whole of next week, so he better keep the house well stock-up before coming back home to find a dying starving wife…

It’s easy to make food for Hus, but not myself. Laziness overcomes me more often than not when it comes to food preparation for myself. Hunger is usually not too hard to bear.









While Hus prepares for his reservist, I made him his favourite Caesar Salad… He’s choosy over vegetables so he might not have enough Fibre and Vit C during his in-camp…



GoodBye Hus

He left at 6.30am on Monday and we haven really spoke to each other since. Just some exchange in messages… I hope I won’t find him strange and unfamiliar at the end of the week like his last reservist…
