Was watching stars just now and saw the dark clouds moving very fast across the sky... an analogy began to form...

everyone of us is actually a shining star and each star has different intensity of brighness. but due to the dark clouds hovering on the sky and over the stars, they cant blink and shine as they could. The dark clouds will move on and the stars can smile brightly again. The same goes for life. We are often clouded by unhappy things that make us dull and upset. However when they are over, life begins to brighten up again. Dark clouds come and go and even are here to stay. Embrace them, overcome them and move on.

Also realise that the dark clouds will move on to block other stars. This reminds me of a common chinese saying something like good and happy things go in a cycle and will pass on from one to another.

My sweent and romantic thoughts went wild after finding out that a couple is actually ahem-ing behind the slide while i had been there playing the swing for close to an hour.

1:06 AM

The day can't be any happier cuz i cant raise my spirit any higher and the night cant make it brighter either. Having too much random thoughts in the mind that i have chose to keep it in me as usual. What's the point in saying out anyway? Things wouldnt change. People always say change is the only constant but from my perspective for this matter, remaining status quo will always b the constant. Get what i mean? you may not so dun bother, it wont help either.

Poor sand sand must have been playing too much Snake on her hp now that she has dreamt of being surrounded by SNAKES, her most hated creature of earth!!!! In a room with so many different kind of snakes, it sent chills down her spine. Darn!!!! And there's even a black sleek one tat resembled and blended into the wire of her earpiece. She saw it glided into her handbag and some kind soul took it out from the bag but she fotgotten who. Oh well, she could only remember non-stop screaming over the handset. She woke up with a tired throat and thought she had screamed thru'out her sleep but to find out from her mum that she was silent all the while. She woke up in cold sweat only to find herself curled up into a ball at the other end of the bed cuz she had wanted to avoid the detestable creatures. She nearly fainted when she woke up and, being paranoid after the bad dream, she went to check all her handbags, making sure that there is indeed no snakes in them. Now her earpiece reminded her of that black sleek creature that blended well together. YUCKS

The fever is here to stay for the next 4 wks!! Have u caught the fever!!! Watched 20min of the first match and full match for England. Utterly disasppointed with England. Formation seems to have taken a 180 degree turn in the second half. Defensive tactic seems to be their way of securing their only goal for Paraguay is kinda rough and fierce. Oh well despite their messiness they still managed a 1-0 win. Attempted to watch with someone but end up watching alone. Isit a trouble to get a companion?? Or rather someone dun really understand what i want?

Seems like june isnt a good month for me and many. Have been working till two-ish in the morning for 2 weeks and more to come. Will b going suzhou again at end of month to follow up on job. Doesnt sound exciting cuz the team is much smaller this time. Expecting time to be tighter this round and more sleepless nights ahead. Amazed at my stamina for the past 2 wks cuz i have been able to stay awake till 3 plus am before falling flat on bed and waking up at 7am to report to office. Yet someone can still complain that he is very tired despite ending work at about the same time as me yet has full sleep of at least 8hrs every day. Spare a thought and show some concern for others. You are not the worst of all. Neither am i but just stop thinking that u are not getting enough rest. Rest is never enough!

Feeling kinda frustrated today. Not pms for sure. Wanted to watch She's The Man but i dare not ask anyone out for some reasons. There are some on the list yet i dare not. Well, i always contradict myself and that's why im always in a dilemma and in a state of confusion. QUIT IT will U, SANDRA LIM!!!!!!!!!!

Attempted herbal foot spa today! Seen it on papers before but never thought of trying it out until mummy suggested cuz she tried and think it's helpful such that it improves blood circulation and makes one feels fresh. Oh well, i never try such things especially when body spa sound more appealing than HERBAL foot spa.

There's one doctor there to so called carry out diagnosis so that he will know what herbs to put in the spa machine. And goodness, he stunned me la... frequent late nights and weak heart.. spot on! He commented im a quick tempered person, which is true as in i gan jiong easily and can angry for nothing.. hahaa... and this is due to a heaty liver. Quick tempered vs hot tempered are different wor. And it doesnt help more by commenting that my kidney is weak too cuz i dunch drink enough water. Bingo! All the organs arent funtioning properly. Im gonna die early!

Proceeded with the foot spa. First herbal water is put into the machine and soaked my feet in it for 30min followed by the hand for 15min. Heat and bubble is generated and makes the whole body sweat like mad. The way bubble is formed tells about the health of patient.

That's mine after 15min...


And that;s my mum's...

Doesnt it look like a white owl? hahahaaaa


According to the physician, the way one perspire tells alot about the health of the person. Cham la.. he said i have a high likelihood of getting stroke cuz only right side of my body is perspiring!! Indeed my left side perspire less, something i never knew until he pointed out. Been warning me to take care of my body. Maybe it's time to do some medical check up. Been hearing friends going for check up and found out that certain parts of body malfunctioning. It fears me to see them going down one by one. I pray for them and myself.

Most likely will try the foot spa again until i can perspire evenly from left and right.. afterall taking good care of myself is my own responsibility.. Sca...ry... ah...

Back Back Back!!! Haven been able to update the happier things in life. At least they are the lovely memories worth storing into the cache memory. Visited Sun with Moon, a japanaese restaurant at Wheelock. There's a branch at Chijmes too. Guess ambience at Chijmes will not be too far off from that at Wheelock. Fabulous restaurant that serves fresh and delicious jap delicacies and great ambience that creates the happy mood. Not those hip kind but perfect for catching up with good time old frenz. So lucky were we to get the super VIP room. I guess it's due to my last minute reservation on sat evening and they have no VIP reservation on the same day and that the restaurant is fully booked and so the super VIP room is their last resort. Hahaha.. just count ourselves lucky cuz from frenz' comments you need to make reservation 2-4 weeks in advance (personally think this is applicable for festive occassions). Perhaps it's the bday girl luck! *grinz*

Had the room all by ourselves with dedicated staff haha... well since it's a room to ourselves, a group of crazy gers started behaving non-sensically, talking and behaving gibberishly hahaha... Miao, the videos are meant for ya wedding! muahaha



This is the ceiling deco. Find it quite interesting cuz i see a moon (the round reflection of lamp) in a moon (the chinese word for Moon in the middle) and the lighting is similar to moonlight too.

Like i said, the food is pretty good cuz they are fresh and looks good.

Cant rem wats this sushi but i vaguely rem is soft shell inside. Gals, m i right? correct me k??

Love the salmon there cuz it's thick slice, fresh and priced reasonably. Im very picky with fish especially salmon sashimi. This is the only place where i tasted salmon that would make me love salmon for a moment. Hahah..


... if im not wrong this plate is $8.90 cuz i really think it's very worth it.


This is the oyster potato mentai.. which means baked potato with oyster. Haaa... stating the obvious. Well, this is probably the only dish i will make discount. Still prefer the potato mentai at Waraku. Perhaps cuz of the way oyster is mixed in the potato, abit smashed and doesnt taste too good.



This is grilled dory fillet in teriyaki style. Not too bad, the skin is crispy and sauce is nice except that it's alil saltish.

ok there's actually one more dish but i was busy figuring out how to cook and that the gals scolding me for taking up time to take photos. Could only take the following of the dish...


Apparently gotta cook the rice according to hour glass, and put the egg in to mix with the rice. In the end, taste normal only lor.


Desserts up next!!! Yummy.. ice cream on the left and cousin of ice kachang on the right. Absolute no complaints abt it.

It's a mess of the ice kachang cousin



Despite having a super-VIP room, the lighting is TOO romantic for pictures! Had such a hard time taking photos manx. There are more pictures of food and not many pictures of people here cuz the 38s insist in maintaining their privacy *faint* but i respect them la. Had so much fun and we had more fun photos added into our collection le!!!

Mh, may u have an exciting year ahead. It's gonna be a year of changes and adaptation, take good care ya!
