Run, ran, running! :)

And after so many years of acting, he's still running as fast (at the age of 49!). *thumbs up!*



I just can't help but to admire his works.

Finally, after a year! :)

12th December 2010 was my last try to donate blood. And I failed. Because I didn't get to have enough Fe in my system. 

A year later, 16th December 2011, I sat there nervously waiting for my Fe results and praying that the value shown will be >12.5. If not it's another wasted trip and I got poked for nothing. LOL!

And there it was "13.6!" HAHAHA! I jumped up and went straight to find myself a chair to sit on! It means I can donate blood! WAHAHAHAHA! I guess those Fe supplements works and yeah, I'll continue eating them because I wanna be a regular donor from now on! :) 


:) And that's me with my blood flowing out and right into that duper big bag (It's 450mL btw). And looking good after the whole process. I'm kind of worried I'll feel faint since I haven't had my breakfast and lunch. *YAY!*

On a side note, many people had the wrong concept that donating blood is painful. I had the first hand experience, so let me tell you, the pain is just like an ant biting you. I won't deny that there's pain, but trust me, the pain is short-lived and seriously it's much lesser than if you knock yourself into the wall. ^_^!!!

So don't wait anymore, bring a smile to someone and save another life. :) It's just an hour of your time only, but you can give the person another chance to see tomorrow.

MI:4 is damn awesome! *^_^!*

:) 1 week ago I kept looking out for tickets to the premier of MI:4, and yes there was a special sneak preview at selected GVs! :)) 

Gotten my tickets right away to secure a good seat! ^_^!

I was so looking forward to the end of work so I can rush down for the movie! HAHAHAHA! And when I reached there, I was surrounded with "black people". First thought on my mind: Did I went to the wrong theater? And then when I see it's really MI:4, I thought maybe it's because tomorrow is a Black people's public holiday, which is not true. *Kept wondering why*

Show started and all the way I was kept occupied and right on the edge of my seat! :) Not going to tell you guys much about the plot, because I want you to go watch it yourself! ^_^!!! Those stunts that Tom Cruise did in the show is definitely worth your ticket price (and he's already 49!). 

One of my favorite lines from the movie:

Benji Dunn: (From trailer) [Showing a glove] Now remember: "Blue is glue!"
Ethan Hunt: And red?
Benji Dunn: Dead.

Alright, it might not sound funny here, but if you combined with all the funny expressions from their faces, you'll laugh.

And almost through the end of the show, I finally know why there's so many black people. It's because the last part of the show is filmed in India? Just a wild guess. HAHAHAHA! And after this show, I totally have a different mental image of India. You'll understand when you watched the show. WAHAHAHAHA!

Don't wait, go buy yourself a ticket. (If you guys need someone to accompany you, I don't mind watching a second time. ^_^! I'm a BIG Fan of T.C!)

Here's the trailer for you:


And not to forget this show is doing advertisement for both Apple and BMW! Now I know that iPhone can do more than just whatsapp and facebook-ing! And all those BMW cars are just too gorgeous to crash into one another! HAHAHA! Quite wasted!

Last night was a great night! ^_^!!!

SSMC Carnival cum Family Day 2011

It's true that just for the 4 hours of event for people to enjoy and have fun, will require 10 times more of your time to plan and prepare for it. But I'm really glad that the event turn out to be a success and everyone went home a smile on their face. ^_^!!!

This is just a short Thank You post, for everyone that has helped me in one way or another throughout the 2 weeks of planning. (Bear with me, it might get nag-gy!) 

1) SRC Team (You know who you are!)

Without you guys I'm pretty sure the whole event will not even get approved by the MT. HAHAHA! Each of you played a different part to make this Carnival so successful and memorable. And also through this whole process, I get to know each of you better. And that's the most important 收获 for me. 

2) My Diffusion peeps (Shu Fen, Wei Zhong & Keith)

Many thanks to Shu Fen for agreeing to be the Stall Manager and planning the details with me right from the start. The ideas for each stall to the allocation of prizes to going to Giant to help me carry all the stuff back to company. You've been a great help (Truly!)

Wei Zhong, for helping to tend to the Game stall and keeping all the kids so entertained that they came back again and again to try and win all the prizes. HAHAHAHA! You're really good with kids, and of course at the last part of the whole carnival tending to the Drink stall.

Keith, for sponsoring so many EXPENSIVE gifts for our stalls. Man, I think those prizes worth up to $500? (or even more!). And not to forget, sending me around to get my logistics done. Appreciate your help!

3)  Mr Lin

Short and Simple: Always there for me! :) Alright, to elaborate more, he send me to Giant to get all my supplies back and carry all the heavy stuff for me. (Not enough?) For every night that I worked into the wee hours, he volunteer to drive me back home (which is like the other side of Singapore). And also to sleep in the car when I worked till 2am in the morning the day before the carnival before driving me back for some 2-3 hours of sleep. And all these are not part of his job, he's just doing them from his heart. :)

4) Everyone

For everyone who turned up for the event to support us, I really hope you guys had fun and enjoyed it as much as I did.

:) I'm glad the carnival is over, but yet a part of me still 舍不得 those weekly meetings where everyone gathers and discuss the smallest details.

Pictures will be uploaded at a later time, when all the official photographers have submitted their copy. I can't wait to see them! :))

Quote from a friend: It's through your hard times where you get to know who's really your friend. Now I really know who are my friends and who I should appreciate more.

Melting Pot Cafe

:) So here's what I promise you guys, an update on last Monday! 

Had to rush down to The Melting Pot Cafe (Holiday Inn Atrium) because work ended so late that day. Anyway, I left in the middle of the meeting, as Mr Lin is already waiting outside for more than half an hour. :( 

Took a cab down and was just nice in time for the reservations.

I was ravished and just started attacking all the food! LOL! I would say the food is just so-so only, have tasted better. But there's this beef stew that keep me very satisfied, and the amount I ate made me felt as though 我吃了一头牛! *LOL!*

Here's a shot of us playing with the Satay. ^_^!!!

Who says girls can't have a moustache? 

Rounds after rounds of food, and finally a cup of hot tea to clear our gastric.

 Of course, we can't leave without having some desserts right? :)

We went to explore the hotel and found that there's quite a number of function rooms. Among these rooms is their Atrium Ballroom. Not as big as I thought to be.

The one thing I super like when I entered the hotel is the super long columns where the lift operates. I would love a shot of the whole lift all the way till the roof top. But of course, I need to lie down on the floor to take such a shot? :)))

We played with the camera for awhile right in front of the hotel reception area (hoping that no one is looking at us).

 
:) I have been busy with the all the Carnival stuff that I don't get to spend much time with him. Gotta make up all the lost time when it's all over. 

3 events during the weekends (Total shagness!):

Saturday 3rd December - SSMC Carnival 2011
Sunday 4th December - Standard Chartered Marathon (Morning) and Wedding dinner (Night)

Can I choose 2/3 events to attend only? :(
