I'm ready for CNY!

I think I'm super... i know you may think i seem boastful but go on and read, u will agree with me hehe... :P

Years ago, i did a big clean up for my room. It was a pain but the result is so wonderful that I sort of forget how i almost gave up and was tempted to just shove everything back inside the cupboards, underneath my bed and pretend they don't exist... :P

Since then i have been wanting to do the same for the rest of the house but  I always have reasons so I could push it aside (i'm a procrastinator remember? hehe). After so many years, the long outstanding project finally kicked off. At first, I only wanted to do a simple clean up such as throwing away the rubbish, vacuuming the house, getting the CNY glasses & containers washed... However, one thing led to another, I decided to do a thorough clean-up for the house to give the house new life. I know! I'm such a perfectionist! haha...

I cleaned from 11 am til 11pm yesterday (i did take breaks in between la hehe) and I'm so happy with my progress! I did not just clean the area AROUND the items, I actually took everything out, washed them and put them back! So that the house is clean inside out hehe...  I apologised to the spiders and ants for I had destroyed their homes during the cleaning... so sorry~ 

With my high efficiency and determination, I am confident that the I will be able to complete it before CNY which is in 3 days time~  Wish me Luck! I must say, it feels great to live in a sparkling home :P

My great helpers this year~ 

CNY is just around the corner~

CNY is 1 week away. I didn't realise until I checked the calendar!

Because of my oversight, I have not decorated my home and I haven't bought CNY tit bits and soft drinks T____T

Yes! I can't believe that I am so unprepared! :(

Actually, it's not surprised since I'm always a last minute person :P

Anyway, there is no use crying over spilt milk. No matter how frustrated you get, how much you complain, things will not get better. So instead of whining, I take rectification actions. I know! I am such a practical person! :P

I completed 90% of the tasks in 2 days. I know! I am such an efficient person, when I want to be :P Well, you should only be a procrastinator IF you possess this special quality! hehe...

• CNY tit bits - Bought (although i still keep buying. Hmmm.. i think i have inherited mum's buying habit ;P)
• CNY soft drinks - Bought
• Put up CNY deco - Done
• CNY songs - Bought
• CNY must-have honey mandarins - Bought
• House cleaning - 50% completed

I have even gone to the wet market to get stuff requested by my mum. Although she is in France now, she is still able to participate in CNY preparation. How amazing is that?! haha.. I wish she could give me a complete list though coz after i've bought what she instructed, she gives me more things to buy. Which means i have to keep going to different places or back to the same place to get new things T___T

I have never known that buying CNY stuff can be such a time and money consuming task! My mum has always been the one to make sure that the house is cleaned, well-stocked and nicely-decorated. I just contribute here and there. I gotta salute my mum for being such a superwoman!

This year, I wanna thank my colleague for making my life easy. really easy because I ordered almost half of my CNY tit bits from her. All I do is sit back, relax and wait for her to deliver everything to me! :P

My mum didn't think I could clean the house without getting any outsourced maids to help. Well, with my secret weapon, I'm able to clean the house by myself (my dad is in charge of washing the floor :P). Thanks to my taobao purchase last December （more about that later), hehe...  I plan well right? hehe... 

HaPpY GoAt YeaR!

雨天的心情

喜歡雨點打在玻璃窗的旋律
喜歡雨點留在玻璃窗上的圖案
喜歡雨天喝一杯熱飲料
喜歡雨天和好友聊過去現在未來
喜歡雨天看著矇矓的世界
喜歡雨天帶來莫名的安全感
喜歡雨天可以庸懶不內疚
喜歡雨天睡覺無所事事

雖然雨天也會帶來很多不便之處，但還是不能改變我對雨天的喜歡。 “情人眼裡出西施”，這裡可以用上嗎？呵呵~ 

你雨天的心情是什麼顏色？

Conversation with kids

My sister, who is 8 months pregnant took a train with my brother-in-law to Provence to meet my brother & family last X'mas

When my bro's young boy saw my sister, he couldn't stop touching my sister's round tummy. My sister-in-law told him that there is a baby inside.

He then stuck his ear against my sister's tummy and tried to "connect" with the baby~ Cute

At the dinner, he asked how the baby got inside the tummy.

My bro answered that my sister's husband puts the baby inside.

He was amazed and asked my brother-in-law where he got the baby.

My BIL continued with the joke and said "from the supermarket" . My nephew was soOoo impressed that he wanted to go to the supermarket to pick a baby too.

I wonder how my nephew will react when he grows up to find out that he has been tricked all these years~

Ahhh... it's OK, that's how we were brought up too haha...

Sometimes a little lie, i mean beautiful story to tell the kids is all the kids need. After all, they will eventually find out when they turn teenagers and have all the years to come to deal with the truth about the real world they live in~ Thus, kids at this age should remain innocent and  be kids la hahahaha...

I love this picture!

It's time to restrict myself again....

I know it's unhealthy to drink too much milk tea and white coffee but... it's so hard to say no to them!

Many years ago, i restricted myself from having more than 3 cups of milk tea per week. Although I did break my own rule several times in the past~ I can't recall when, but i stop having milk tea too often. I sometimes don't drink milk tea for more than a week! Awesome right? 

However, I'm addicted to white coffee lately T___T  I will have a cup at every chance i get T____T Guess what? I had one everyday last week! OH NO!

I want to make a vow here that I will restrict both white coffee & milk tea to 3 cups per week! I'm seriously about it. Because health is wealth!

It's my new life resolution! I'm confident that I can do it!

The other day, i saw this sign at a cafe~ I know the devil is out to tempt me but... hehe, I didn't order coffee :P 

That's called will power! hehe.. Let's see how long it will sustain :P

I think it's funny

Received a bank notification that I have received a deposit.

A look at the email, I laughed.

Can you see what it is that make me laughed?

If not, most probably due to different point of view :P

Whoever looks at this transaction in the bank will know that my good friend has spent 60 bucks to purchase her bra! haha...

Told my friend and she too laughed at her own description. This is just what we need, to colour the original blue Monday yellow* Haha...

Laughter is indeed the best medicine

*Why yellow? 

coz I think it's the colour of hope and happiness :P

My 2014 Xmas Gift

This year, i received a Christmas gift which i had been tempted to buy but never bought because it thought I could just make full use of my long arms. Glad to have it because it really makes a lot of difference....

Wish I had this before i went to Paris and London. Just look at the difference~ 

Jane & I with the world-famous lady - MonaLisa

The Painting was tiny compared to our faces! ha!
Err.. can u see her? hehe

Eiffel Tower was at my back but ... 

our faces are big too T__T

Using my xmas gift, selfie stick to take we-fie~ 

Unfortunately I still occupy a big part of the screen while everybody hid behind me .... but at least i could fit more people in one picture! haha!

looks like real long arms and 'extended' long arms still make a lot of difference

I'm thinking of getting one for my sister in Paris so she could do wefie too. Will the French  think we Asians are too self-addicted haha...

My extended arm

Wireless one somemore!hehe
