Home Alone

YQ is out to meet some friends at Dempsey so right now I'm enjoying some quiet time at home.

Blogger isn't very Mac-friendly for the past 2 days. The editing icons are missing so I can't add pictures to my entry. Is this unique to me or are other Mac users facing the same problem? No choice, got to revert to using Windows for the time being.

Bought some donuts to go along with the tea MJ bought for me from Kyoto. I guess until I find some good coffee, I shall switch to being a tea drinker instead.


As I enjoy the peaceful moment, I am secretly thinking of Monday. Arghh! This is bad!

Housework Time

I was coughing pretty badly throughout the night so I didn't really have a good sleep. Cough is my most hated minor illness. I can bear with fever, running nose and headache but not cough. When will it go away???!!! Sigh!

Since I can't sleep anyway, I woke up early to do some housework. Received an sms from my boss and it made my day - the meeting tomorrow is cancelled! YEAH!!! LONG WEEKEND!

Energised by the good news, I managed to iron the clothes, mop the floor, wash the laundry, clean the toilet and wash the dishes! I am so pleased with my achievement! By the time I sat down to eat my lunch, it was already 2.30 pm.

As I am still practising social distancing, I decided to eat whatever is readily available at home - bread!


I think my taste bud is spoilt. These days, all 3-in-1 coffee taste very chemical to me. I am seriously considering getting a coffee maker. Cheaper than drinking Starbucks everyday!

Unexpected Long Weekend

The doctor gave me 2 days medical leave to rest. Guess with the H1N1 virus around, the doctors will rather be on the safe side.

Woke up feeling a lot better today but was lazy to go out and buy lunch. I also wanted to play my part as a socially responsible adult so I will practise social distancing for these 2 days.

Nothing much left in the fridge. Managed to cook some fishball & egg porridge (sounds weird) to fill up my stomach.


The porridge was too watery and a little undercooked. Had to put it back into the pot to cook a little longer.

Blue Sunday

Feeling a little unhappy today so I decided to do 2 things:

1. Retail Therapy

Bought 2 trench coats and a cardigan from Mango. Hmmm, I have no idea when I will have the chance to wear the trench coats. Maybe when I go for holidays in Dec? Haha. Retail therapy is never rational.

2. Cooking

Besides fried rice, I cooked some papaya fish soup for dinner. This time, the colour of the papaya looked more "normal".


After shopping, cooking and drinking, the unhappiness still lingers... Is it due to the rain?...

愛情之所以為愛情

喜歡這首歌是在迷上《敗犬女王》之前。

覺得梁靜茹詮釋得很好，喜歡她換氣時的呼吸聲，有瑕疵才更顯得完美。

聽完心有種糾結的疼痛。

詞：黃婷
曲：周谷淳

買CD 把你的聲音丟在角落
看電影 到結局總是配角的錯
你要的故事 讓你去說
我要的生活 我好好過

寫日記 寫不出是誰的感受
夜空裡 每個人佔有一個星座
你到底懂不懂 我只要一點溫熱的觸碰
你到底懂不懂 有些話 並不是 一定要說

你總說愛情之所以為愛情 是用來揮霍
你總是漫不在乎 當我看著自己的稀薄
你編織的感覺難以捉摸
你比我的夢境還困惑

我看見愛情之所以為愛情 誰都在揮霍
我想的天長地久 也許只是時間的荒謬
我沈迷的感動與你不同
我的了解讓我自由

一場雨 有時候下得不是時候
就像你 說難過不是真的難過
你到底懂不懂 我只要一個安穩的等候
你到底懂不懂 想你想得好像 空氣都停了

你總說愛情之所以為愛情 是用來揮霍
你總是漫不在乎 當我看著自己的稀薄
你編織的感覺難以捉摸
你比我的夢境還困惑

我看見愛情之所以為愛情 誰都在揮霍
我想的天長地久 也許只是時間的荒謬
我沈迷的感動與你不同
我的了解讓我自由

你總說愛情之所以為愛情 是用來揮霍
你總是漫不在乎 當我看著自己的稀薄
你編織的感覺難以捉摸
你比我的夢境還困惑

我看見愛情之所以為愛情 誰都在揮霍
我想的天長地久 也許只是時間的荒謬
我沈迷的感動與你不同
我的了解讓我自由

我沈迷的感動與你不同
我的了解讓我自由

Singa

Saw this at the Singapore Tourist Centre when I was making my way to Orchard Ion last Friday. Couldn't resist taking a photo of it...


I hope Singa can breathe... and be H1N1 free!

Lunch & Dinner

I hope we will soon not be discouraged to lunch together. Here's my lunch for today (finally learnt to use the microwave).


Decided to have something "simple" though not very healthy for dinner...
