Massage


Had Traditional Thai Massage from Thai Odyssey at Jusco Tebrau City this afternoon. I know it seems that it's very self-indulgent of me, but I don't really indulge my every whim at all times because this could be quite pricey. I ached all over yesterday after coming back from work. It was sheer heaven being intoxicated by the skillful massage as the pain of my body and the stiffness from my muscles and joints had really been taken away!

Friday

Just a Case of Flu

Am still feeling sick, down with flu. Two days ago, I told the doctor that I could feel that I was coming down with a fever. These are the medicine I was given.



This is sad as I am still in delicate health and could only have something light, not greasy. This kind of life is deadly dull. After getting up, I get either noodle with soup or porridge. So unappetizing! When I am feeling sick, it seems like a long list of food is waving for me. It’s just like I couldn’t afford it now! Today I just feel like having something different. Anyway, got my seafood tomato soup, Italian ciabatta, and a glass of hot milk from Lavendar Bistro! The food is simply awesome! What a heavenly meal I had!



Thursday

Nice Catch Up with Cindy


Met up with Cindy the day before I left for Frankfurt. Cindy just got hitched last month. I didn’t really have the chance to talk to her on her wedding night. She drove to my house. Looking at her hair bobbed as she walked into the house, I was suddenly aroused by her new hair-do. I totally believe that changing a new hair style will make ones look so different as in fresher looking with high spirit.


Cindy isn’t a typical housewife but dutiful wife I would say. She has never regretted or looked back and complained about the difficult in times past. I newly aware that happiness is a choice, we are as happy as we make ourselves to be. The choice is in our hand, all along! Hence, it gave me a great pleasure to talk a topic that should affect you and I – marriage.


When we were having thrill in our animated conversation, my mom abruptly put in by asking Cindy, “Plan to get a baby soon?” Cindy, her very lips were white, but she said calmly, “trying hard!” Yeah, I just can’t wait to see my friend entering motherhood! Sure fun! The position as a mother is never easy but it can be enjoyable – the thrill of a lifetime for a woman! Very rewarding!

Between the 2-carat

Few days ago, I just bumped into a friend at the hotel lobby. Hadn’t met her for over a year. Because of her job, she’s now based in Singapore, just like me. She shared to me that she was very lonely staying in Singapore before this. She missed her family tremendously when she started working in Singapore. The life in Singapore was not easy at all. She faced many stumbling blocks, which caused her intense unhappiness. Sometimes, when depressions sank in, she cried alone. She even attempted suicide. She was thinking for her family at that period as what would happen if she left the world.


This attitude seemed to me unduly fussy. There’s really so much stress in real life. Same to me. Thinking back, it was actually a worthwhile decision to go to Singapore as I did it initially to “escape” for more opportunities outside. The absence certainly made my heart grow fonder towards my family, even though as in now, I still won’t express my love to them so openly. For the past three months, I made my trips returning home more often despite any other reasons. I just need somewhere I can call it a HOME. In her case, I could understand the feeling deep enough.


I was glad that sweet smile remains etched on her face. She told me when the things went downhill, a man who’s full of optimism came to her life. She now, no longer alone, she said. She learns. She divides her life into work and love. They practice to take a holiday together when their schedule permits for both. Her boyfriend is a Caucasian and they are maintaining a long distance relationship. According to her, it’s tough but still both of them will make the effort to meet each other up. She then smiled to me broadly, said that, by the way, she’s going to quit after receiving the 2-carat diamond ring, soon!


Wow! I’m just too happy for her!!! Congratulations! I realize when ones have found the purpose in life, have been in love and have had a positive thinking towards the notion of love, he/she will just stop suffering himself/herself from the feelings of insecurity and concentrate to be the best to someone whom he/she cares! And, I’m learning to accept the reality of where my heart is. In short, let’s go with the flow!

Monday

A Football Enthusiast

Watching him, he just looks like any other man. But to me, he embodies all the best qualities of a team leader. As he has emerged as a sort of, I’m delighted. He always seems to have an aura of happiness, contentment and satisfaction about him, himself. These are what he could obtain from football. He is just more than a football player. It is his wit and intellect that make him an extraordinary football enthusiast. There are strong ties of friendship between the members of the team. He and his teammates, they talk not only friendship, but largely teamwork, which is even more important than individual skill. His constant efforts serve to animate the whole team. I could see. And, my admiration to him grew.


I’ve learnt that love takes a lot of work, and you’ve got to have a really good time with the person. Because that fairytale. Oddly enough, his boundless enthusiasm aroused my curiosity. His great eagerness towards football kindled my interest in his favourite activity. The energy and the spirit from him had me wondering. Patiently, I come close to him. I remain neutral yet I share his joyfulness. This is a chance of a lifetime. Maybe, in the end, that’s his greatest gift: the ability to be both at once. Should the whole- hearted support to be given to him? An affirmative I should reply, YES I WILL!!!
