With prices of everything going up, our health kept going downhill. In addition to the falling cleanliness of air and water, the increasing level of stress affects our health too. In fact, human beings are so vulnerable, a whole lot of factors could affect us, even a tiny bacteria could wreck havoc to us.
Bird flu, Swine flu, SARS and any other illnesses that came suddenly with little warning. This tells us that Health needs to be monitored. But health is usually the one to be neglected when it comes to reducing cost and effort. Hence more advanced and cheap packages like Ameriplan for Dental and Ameriplan for Health are required. Packages that includes most of the common check ups and tests would be the best to enable people to monitor their health sufficiently without bursting their wallet. I planned to go for such a package as an annual check up on my health as well as my husband's health. Its better to know early than late. Its better to do something now than never.

Ok~ Its now April 29th... nearly May and I am still blogging about my birthday in Mar (lolx~~~!)
These photos been uploaded since Mar and I haven't touched on them... thats the 魅力of 康熙来了which I've been chasing and watching. They made my day, making me laugh at 小S's actions and jokes though at the expense of other artistes.
My computer 复活了~~~!!! Yeah! Thanks to Ixpert Solution at Sim Lim (ok~ he's Yif's husband- Jeff) my computer revived and will continue to be under my violent use. However, my vista cannot be downgraded (upgraded in my point of view) due to its version. (Shucks~) But the auto update was turned off and I vowed to back up each and every one of my Cheer Chen's photos and music files.
------------------------
Birthday cakes .. from my Dar at 12am of 6th Mar and of course the yearly ritual bouquet of Sunflowers to make my day ;D
Been tired from travelling to/from work and work itself. Arrived at home about 11 + and was damn happy to see the flowers and Dar of course~
Thanks Dar, despite his embarressment in buying flowers (though I don't understand why) he managed to get a bouquet for me.

Mar 8 Cheer Chen's 签唱会
Was at Bugis Mrt station waiting for Claire when
Claire called and spoke in a secretive whisper ... '.... 买porn.... "
and I was like "HUH??? *whisper* porn?"
Claire: ".... porn ... porn.... PORN..."
and I was like "..."
Claire: "Ok~ stay put! I'll come and look for you"
the moment she reached, she walked past me right into the 7-Eleven look for ..... "STORM" the brand of sweets that will make us entitled to sign up as one of the 30 lucky ones to get priority positions at the 签唱会and of course the first 30 persons to go up on stage for her signature and handshakes... and ALSO, lucky draws with chances to win a pair of her concert tickets~~
(which Claire won!!!) *oops too much information?*
She is not very popular in Singapore though. As alot of people actually goes for more commercialized songs and actually found her voice to be too 猫 (as in not stingy but sounds too sharp). Since tastes in songs depends on each individual, it doesn't mean I don't like "house" so "house" is bad so as long as I love her songs, I don't really bother so much.
No photographs of her though since Liyi mentioned for us not to take photos and videos and I would really like to hear her sing live.
This will be the first time I bought such expensive tickets for concerts and I am really looking very very very forward to her concert which was themed on her new album "The Sun". Very seldom can you get such good song writers who write on non-commercialised songs for interest. Though her vocals may not be very good but her non-chalent way of insisting on singing according to what/how she wants really appealed to me.
--------------------------------
Hotpot Culture ... forgot which day we went there... but we had a colleague who is a super duper steamboat friend .. normally our conversation will be like thie :
Me: "WS, want to go KTV today?"
WS: "I can't my mum cooked"
Me + Claire: "Then maybe we go steam boat dinner ba"
WS:"Ok~ I'll call my mum and ask her not to cook mine"
Me + Claire : *flat faced*
Lolx~ So here's our trip to the Hotpot culture.
Even though it was a weekday but the place was quite packed. We were urshered to a small corner of the place and the person took our order. There were cooked food to be chose from together with raw food and also the raw food counter for the steamboat.
Many of the cooked food were Malay or Indonesian style with things like Tauhu Goreng, Tauhu Telu, Sambal prawns, Sambal Kangkong and many of them were spicy.
Drinks not included, not even plain water and the most peeved was of course Claire. I went again recently and found the lime juice to be quite delicious though expensive.
And oops I accidentally delete the photo showing the variety of food stuffs they had. So too bad. Please do look at it at Yebber though.
I would say this place is quite valued for money. Having the large variety of food to choose from, the dark chocolate fondue (YUM~~) after the steamboat dinner was a plus point though the variety of fruits and ingredients to go with the fondue was limited and the ice-cream tasted bad. Would have liked the soup to be less salty so that we can eat more things without feeling 腻though. In yebber, I also mentioned that the fuel for the personal steamboat smells too strong and greatly reduced my appetite. I went back like 3 days ago and gladly noted that they had changed the fuel type and although the strength of the fire could not be adjusted, the vomit-inducing smell of fuel was gone. A restaurant that is willing to take the views of customers and review it will go a long way. For people who love steamboat or is looking for a cosy place for family dinner or outing, this place is good though I would say reservations recommended for big groups since they do have limited spaces for big groups.
Btw, I've just joined as a member where there will be refills of drinks for Ala Carte buffet, birthday treats and entitlement to other discounts, special promotions. You can refer to their website.

Heyo~ My computer died. Yes~ all because of Vista which stopped updating a year after the purchase. Gave me lots of problems with A LOT of pop ups asking for permission.... with only high and medium security level to choose from so I can't play some games (boo hooo~~ my 仙剑客栈) ;~( and watch porn (oops~ ;P) etc....
Currently using Dar's computer to check my 130 new mails *sweatz* and update blog. Oh well, I hope Jeff can come to my rescue and revive my comp + YX to DOWNGRADE the stupid VISTA (to me its upgrade). Then I can start to blog about Cheer Chen (Ahhhh~~~!!!!! Cheer Chen Cheer Chen) The Sun concert and the 签唱会we went to ~~~ I shaked her hand!!!! Wootz~~~!

难得的sunday他在家。。。 应该说。。他在我睡醒之后到家了
突然下起大雨。。。 我们一起听陈绮贞的小步舞曲。。。
(还在被昨晚看的演唱会感染。。。 今天做的第一件事就是听她的歌)
虽然做的事不同但是一起听歌。。。一起唱歌。。。 过一个懒惰的Sunday。。
这感觉还不赖嘛~~
还是希望他可以多陪我。。。但是我们也不能不吃饭。。。
还真是现实呢!
所以还是忍忍吧。。。毕竟工作也有一半是为了我(我是这么希望的)
陈绮贞-小步舞曲
天空突然下起倾盆大雨 恋人在屋檐下相偎相依
移动我的脚步轻松躲雨 人潮拥挤握住湿热的手心
再也不愿想起不快乐的旋律 呼吸这一秒的空气
还有多少回忆藏著多少秘密 在我心里翻来覆去
什么叫做爱情 还有多少回忆藏著多少秘密
在你心里我也许只是你欣赏的风景
夜晚静静等著电话响起 时间躺在他去年寄来的信
空荡的风叫我播放著舞曲 旋转这一秒的孤寂
还有多少回忆藏著多少秘密 在你心里我也许是你轻快的游戏
还有多少回忆藏著多少秘密 在你心里我也许只是你缓慢的练习
音乐响起我一个人演出重覆的舞曲

I haven't been updating my blog. I won't say I am busy... though I AM busy... no wait am I busy?? Hmm ... (never mind~~)
Ok~ I admit! I'm plain plain lazy~ hey! Who won't be lazy right? Though my laziness is like for a damn long period of time.... (and I haven't even finish writing about my Cambo trip! (Still stuck in Day 1)
I've decided to continue on .... oh well... I will SOMEDAY continue to write on the Cambo trip anyway ... provided I still remember what happened. . .
Okok~ recent updates~ Judy's wedding~~ ;D That gal finally got married~ To a wonderful person whom we all give thumbs up for ... a teacher to be ;D
The Jie Meis~ Its us again~
Which belongs to Judy?(Psst~ the answer is ---------------------- none!)
Money money money~~~ *Sings*
Wedding dinner at Expo~
Our class gals~~ not all of cos~ Look at Renshi's red face~ really regretted Kampai-ing with her that night
Don't Judy look great in this red gown??
Xmas 2008~ The usual steamboat dinner with Claire, Jing, Yanxing, Phil, Dar and I... This time, no wastages of food~~ but there seems to be a shortage *sweatz*
Erm... Faults partly Claire and mine... cause we finished up the carrots while waiting for them to come ...
My present from Yanxing...., also got an MP3 player from Phil, Female monkey hp dangler from Claire~ ;D Christmas's rather quiet this year...
Mahjong~~~ Oops .. I mean Chinese New Year~
Maybe you won't believe it but I don't know Mahjong AT ALL. By "at all" means they even have to teach me to differentiate the circles and the bamboos.
We actually were having dinner at Holland V and thinking about what to do after that .. movie, KTV or .....
Then *dink* it came to us, we can play mahjong~ but we don't have any ... how? So we went about looking for places that sells mahjong (set and table) at 10pm at night.....
We managed to find one at the market place near Hol V and (even harder) to get a cab willing to drive us back home (Mine)
Tadaa~~~! *deng deng deng deng*
Player 1: The Mahjong
Player 2: The Shi Fu
Player 3: The Tow Kay
Player 4: The Joker~After several rounds of trying-to-play-and-trying-to-explain-mahjong-to-total-klutz
I managed *yea~~~* to win a round by 自我的力量 (Own strength)
but we didn't play with money cause I've stop all gambling since Primary 4.
Not bad for first timer yeah?
Then the God of the Gamblers (In the world of pooh bears and honey) came after their round of KTV (With the friends of the forest?)

yeah a year ago .. but I've only just finished doing the sides and gathered the puzzle pieces for major parts of the puzzle
Of course after the new year round of mahjong I've had another round of practice ... though I didn't have very great wins or play faster than the God of gamblers (In the world of pooh bear and honey) but I did managed to win a few times (thrice) more using

lolx .. but recently not only busy, tired and lacking in sleep .. I'm plagued by blisters, blisters and more blisters~~! Where else but from my shoes? But still, who told me to have the kind of feet which will blister wearing rubber slippers??

Usually I won't give much thought about the furnishing and decor that my mum buys. Since well, though it was my home, it's obviously not my house. Whatever that my mum wants to buy or use, she makes the decision and we would just use whatever she decides on.
Now that we have our own house and home, we realized that deciding what to buy is really complicated and difficult. You have to consider the price, the style, the quality and the user friendliness. Especially while comparing the price, its often tiring running from place to place just to compare the prices and colour for comforters or lamps.
However, this must be done as the decision involves spending money and some items just stay with you for a few months or even years. Just like renovating houses, the owner must like the decor and features. Otherwise it just defeats the purpose of spending so much money to have your own house.
