Escape weekend

Ha ha!! Yesterday turned out to be a sweet long date in Escape theme park, downtown east.. :D:D:D I got to see baby's knuckles turn white from clutching the safety bar on the Viking ride (like Kora2 in Dufan!)!!! hahahahahhaa that was *so* cute~~~

My fave ride was definitely the indoor roller coaster with super-sharp >90 degree turns that almost sent us flying off the car at four stories high!!! And then there's the 3D revolution thingie, that was really cool \(^o^)/. The worst ride was one silly construction with many airplane-like flats that we had to lie on, face-down. And then it did nothing but turns around and around for like forever... it almost made me sick!! The only good thing was that the strong breeze dried us up from the wet&wild ride we took earlier :D (baby: "Hey look! they have wet and WILO!!")

On the way home we went to SimLim to pick up an all-in-one printer, but came home empty handed in the end. Oh well, better luck next time. Enough fun for the day~~~ happy Sunday to you! :)

It's confirmed!

And I miss my sister so... :p

She's only gone one day and already I miss her chirpy stories and explosive laughter. And to think i might've started working by the time she comes back here next week, aww~~~ am i such a baby after all?

My Values

Just had an interview with my future CEO, and now contemplating my personal values. What are they? I wrote these for my GEM Strategic Thinking Paper two years ago:

Integrity: a powerful compass that empowers your heart and conscience
Responsibility: leads to proactivity and effectiveness
Optimism: gives you strength and enthusiasm
Trust: builds lasting, fruitful relationships
Humor: rejuvenates the heart and mind
Faith: nourishes the soul, and brings you down to earth

I think they're still it. :)

Seoul Raiders

Saw it with ceta and baby last nite in Westmall; it was pretty funny! Shu Qi is pretty although she couldn't really act. And the sporty Korean girl is so cool!! sweet~~ :D

Met a nice ex-nussu guy who's now working with Microsoft. A pleasant coincidence indeed! :)

Watched Incredibles at home afterwards. It's still my favourite!! Loved every twist of the plot, and the witty script. Dash is so cute!!! awww~~~~ \(^o^)/

YOUTH

Youth is not a time of life; it is a state of mind; it is not a matter of rosy cheeks, red lips and supple knees; it is a matter of the will, a quality of the imagination, a vigor of the emotions; it is the freshness of the deep springs of life.

Youth means a temperamental predominance of courage over timidity, of the appetite for adventure over the love of ease. This often exists in a man of 60 more than a boy of 20. Nobody grows old merely by a number of years. We grow old by deserting our ideals.

Years may wrinkle the skin, but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul. Worry, fear, self-distrust bows the heart and turns the spring back to dust.

Whether 60 or 16, there is in every human being’s heart the lure of wonder, the unfailing childlike appetite of what’s next and the joy of the game of living. In the center of your heart and my heart there is a wireless station: so long as it receives messages of beauty, hope, cheer, courage and power from men and from the Infinite, so long are you young.

When the aerials are down, and your spirit is covered with snows of cynicism and the ice of pessimism, then you are grown old, even at 20, but as long as your aerials are up, to catch waves of optimism, there is hope you may die young at 80.

Quick Dash of an Entry in this Crazy World

We are up to our necks with 1001 different seeds and nuts I've
never seen before in my life and am constantly urged to eat more of by his dad!!! (they taste pretty good luckily :D) Baby's parents have
brought 2 suitcases here, which consists of at least 1.5 cases full of all sorts of food. Preserved meats, prawns, flower tea, raisins, nuts,
peach seeds, 'a bigger kind of peach' seeds, macadamia, preserved
apple/peach, etc. etc. you get the idea and I'm not joking!!! I can
swim in all the food now and our fridge is totally stuffed right to
the corners and most unreachable compartments of the fridge door!!! haha~~~ ok gtg back to munching..........

A Day of Indulgence

First we had a nice long Sakae buffet in Suntec City (Firefly, Kura n me). I mean we stayed there for more than a coupla hours I think, and would've stayed longer if only there were some tiny space left in our tummies to tuck in another temaki or gyoza or even the delicious ice-cream-filled-peach-flavoured-mochi! :D

Then we went off to meet cute little 'Ayam Asle' (heeheehee sorry babe was lookin for a nice nick for u here but I couldn't help thinking of this one since Kura told the story~~), and off we go to do some serious shopping!

Which consists of me finding a striking red shirt which fit surprisingly nicely even before I found something for baby's CNY present (why is it so much easier to find girl's stuff than guys' ?!?), *somebody* trying unsuccessfully to return a Topgun men's underwear for a bigger size, and our cute little friend buying her much anticipated sheer-dark-red-modified-Cheongsam-top after some 'gentle' persuasion by us faithful friends! \(^o^)/

The ultimate purchase is definitely the four air tickets to Jakarta which baby n I confirmed on Zuji just minutes ago... yay yay!! A day of indulgence indeed~~~

Sweet dreams folks! :)
