    Goodbyes
  • regrets.
    ++Saturday, May 21, 2011 ++


    One of my worst fear came true.

    Because of the generation gap and the possible awkwardness,

    I was never daring enough to give you a big and tight hug,

    to tell you that I actually love you very, very much.

    Now all I can do is to grieve by the casket.

    R. I. P.

    JFK, CDG or LHR?
    ++Tuesday, April 5, 2011 ++


    My sister and I have a deal,

    that before the end of the world (LOL... I mean 2012 ^^),

    we will travel together to somewhere far from home.

    Shop, eat, drink, party... Live the way we desire.

    Where will it be? JFK, CDG or LHR?

    Alles Gute!

    Even just for a day, the trip back home was crucial.

    We ♥ our daddy.

    Is there anything else needed to say? LOL.

    How's life? Crappy is the word.

    Things aren't going in the right way they should.

    Stress much; be it school, music, friendship, family...

    I pray for good health - especially the ones I love.

    Alles Gute!


    I ♥ 婆婆 & 外婆

    CX 21st Edition: of Padlocks and Keys
    ++Sunday, February 20, 2011 ++


    It striked me to blog when I attended my friend's party last night.

    My 21st. 5th Feb 2011. Exactly 15 days ago.

    I had breakfast & lunch with my family and relatives.

    I practised the violin. I fed my dogs. I surfed the net.

    I phoned my past teachers to wish them a prosperous CNY.

    I drove around the my hometown running errands for the celebration.

    ... and there it came the party.

    Thanks you, papa & mummy. For everything.

    Thank you, to all who helped: my aunt, maid, sister, friends....

    Lastly, thanks to all who turned up.

    Alles Gute!


    Thank you for the music.


    What a sensation to have so many people singing for you.

    Thank You for the Music.
    ++Friday, February 4, 2011 ++


    I decided to blog before heading out for the final countdown.

    Whether you are my love, my family, my friend, my teacher...

    I wanna thank you for being there for me.

    Dreaming a dream I choose to is the best ever thing that happened.

    Without a song or a dance, what are we?

    Thank you for the music, for giving it to me.

    Now, let's party.

    Alles Gute!

    Anniversary!
    ++Saturday, December 18, 2010 ++


    Okay it is mummy's birthday.

    And guess what?

    It is also the rent's anniversary!

    A dinner with my family and besties

    was possibly the best way to celebrate such an occasion.

    What can go better than a BFFs meet family?

    Alles Gute!

    BH-Y. 17th Edition.
    ++Sunday, December 5, 2010 ++


    My dearest sister's 17th - a day to be celebrated.

    Both our burfdaes fall on the 5th, mine February and hers December.

    Baby brother's falls on the 23rd (not the 5th! BLEH!!!),

    and that makes him the little devil.


    Like brother like sister.


    A cut from the choco-cake I baked.

    Appearance - Epic fail. (it explains why I dare not show the whole of it)

    ... and Taste - Yummy! (nuff said, don't doubt!)

    For more pictures of the burfdae dinner, click here.

    Alles Gute!

    Oriental Metropolis.
    ++Thursday, December 2, 2010 ++


    Months have gone by since my third visit to HK last September.

    But since I've blogged about Disneyland,

    why not just upload some pictures of the metropolis?


    In many ways Hong Kong and Singapore are identical.

    Both cities have impressive city view by the harbour.


    They both have ports to deal with with tons of containers each day.


    Advanced rail system accomodating the commuters;

    Hectic pace of city life.


    Luxury boutiques everywhere.

    (for this, SG is still on its way becoming one)

    HK babies will know LV, Hermès and Chanel before they know Giordano.


    ... and even the chocolates are branded!

    For more pictures of the metropolis, click here.

    _____



    P/S: Finally a chance onboard the superjumbo.

    (despite the recent scandals,

    I still like the fact
    that you can walk around the two decks of economy cabin)

    _____


    I will be back soon. HK.

    Auf Wiedersehen!

    Rapunzel-inspired.
    ++Tuesday, November 30, 2010 ++


    Upon watching Disney's Rapunzel,

    I decided to blog about the HK Disneyland trip with my family last summer.

    A few pictures, but they say a thousand words.


    From characters so familiar to everyone ...


    ... to ... the little dwarfs that babies of the new millennium won't recognise.


    Lion King, a favourite of mine.

    P/S: The broadway musical will tour Singapore coming spring!


    Finally, a family portrait with Donald!

    For more pictures, click here.

    I miss my childhood.

    Bambi, Peter Pan, Pinocchio, Winnie the Pooh, Jungle Book,

    Snow White, Aladdin, Beauty and the Beast, Cinderella,

    Hunchback of Notre Dame,
    Pocahostas, Hercules, Tarzan,

    Toy Story, 101 Dalmatians, Atlantis, George of the Jungle,

    ............... and the list goes on.

    For me these are the precious memories

    that I will want to recollect some time soon.

    Alles Gute!

    The Rents.
    ++Wednesday, November 24, 2010 ++


    A heart to heart BBM (BlackBerry Messenger, yea...) conversation with mummy

    changed my decision to blog about

    the Berlin Philharmonic's debut performance in Singapore.

    Instead, I shall dedicate this entry to the rents.

    I have so much to express, telling you how grateful I am.

    I'm proud of what I am doing;

    I'm thankful of what I have, and who I am.


    Mummy and daddy, I love you!


    Alles Gute!

    Happy Ninth.

    Love from kor.

    P/S: treat your new PS with care!
