Words Women Use:
(some of them are so true!)
FINE - This is the word women use to end an argument when they are right and you need to shut up.
5 MINUTES - If she is getting dressed, this is half an hour. Five minutes is only five minutes if you have just been given 5 more minutes to watch the game before helping around the house.
NOTHING - This is the calm before the storm. This means "something," and you should be on your toes. Arguments that begin with 'Nothing' usually end in "Fine."
GO AHEAD - This is a dare, not permission. Don't do it.
THAT'S OKAY - This is one of the most dangerous statements that a woman can make to a man. "That's Okay" means that she wants to think long and hard before deciding how and when you will pay for your mistake.
WHATEVER - It's a woman's way of saying *!#@ YOU!

feels so good to accomplish the mission i set for myself ever since i shifted to this temporary home, which is to complete a run round the pandan reservoir! think that is at least 6 kilometres! guess i'm a step closer to my dream of completing a 10km jog. the rush of adrenaline makes me feel really good, think i'll have a nice cosy sleep later. :)
it also feels DAMN good to be on leave on dreadful mondays! finally found a chance to give myself a break from work, being able to laze in bed while everybody else is hard at work *evil grins*, paying only $7 for an weekday afternoon show (btw, i had a good laugh watching 'the longest yard', and it's pretty inspirational too) and having only four more days to countdown to the next weekend!
and just to backdate alittle, spending mid-autumn festival at the chinese garden holding a cute little nemo lantern and playing with sparklers did bring back some childhood memories. speaking of this lantern, i've always wanted to carry a traditional cellophane lantern as i never had the opportunity when i was a child, paper lanterns were all i had. this nemo attracted some attention too, and one lady even borrowed it for picture-taking, harhar. took plenty of pictures too with and of the spectacular lantern display with MY NEW PANASONIC LUMIX FX-9! i particularly enjoyed the dinosaurs, the african wild animals, the adorable pandas... and of course, the company that evening. :) no access to adobe photoshop to showcase the photos now, but another time, definitely.
good night, folks! finally finished sending out work e-mails...*stretch*

mooncake-shopping!
i've always loved shopping for mooncakes, and i've been at it for the past one hour! i think i know what i'll order at the the office on-site sale tomorrow; both from raffles hotel: baked mooncake with pine nuts, macadamia nuts & white lotus paste and baked mother of pearl mooncake with single yolk & white lotus paste. :)
i've also set my eyes on sze chuan court's (raffles the plaza) baked peach-shaped mooncake with single yolk, macadamia nuts & white lotus paste, time to head down to takashimaya for mooncake tasting this weekend! ;) as you can see, i like the traditional lotus paste baked ones with assorted nuts, and preferably single yolk. but of course with "or-nee" (yam paste with gingko nuts) being one of my favourite hot desserts, you can't forget the famous crown prince hotel teochew-styled flaky skin mooncake filled with yam paste! *licks lips!*
btw, heard that chinese garden celebrating lantern festival with a safari theme?
"Filled with over 1100 pieces of lanterns, you will be immersed into this animal land with a touch of tradition from the moment you enter our gates! From the dancing animal orchestras, to the bridge of musical fairies, leading you into the majestic palace of Chang Er, to the Great Migration, the World of Big Cats and even a safari-styled ride through The World of Carnivorous Plants and Insects, it will be exciting, educational and fun for everyone!"
