Happiness and bliss

I was enveloped in an ambience of bliss and happiness today.

We gathered at my grandmother's place to prepare for Joleen's wedding (20 May 2007) and everyone was basked in excitement.

I have the honour to be one of the bridesmaids. So, I am really anticipating (gosh.. need to diet...HA!).

It has been a while since my grandfather passed on that we have something joyous to celebrate! Of course, we celebrate in remembrance of him.

Joleen and I are close like sisters as well as best friends. We used to spend a large part of our childhood together singing, making clothes for our barbie dolls and so much more. Despite meeting up every week, we would send snail mails to each other. We often had stay overs and saw each other through significant changes in life.

I am really happy for her. Happy that she found a good husband and happy that she pursued her dream in music and is doing well.

Seeing the whole family in high-spirit and being happy for her is a good feeling.

This simple happiness is a bliss to me.

Gliding

In-line skating.. aka skating... aka roller blading is one of my favourite sports.

Gliding down the road, with the sea breeze on my face, I feel like I am in a world of my own. Moving forward, the wind sweeps my troubles away, leaving a trail of my worries behind me. Gliding fast, I only care about the road ahead and the scenary around me. Free and relaxing, my heart is the only voice I hear. This is how living should be. Just glide.


Gliding, I remembered the song "A whole new world" and sweet memories were conjured.Fishing... an excellent way to idle.


East Coast Park, my ideal skating ground.


My dear friends who accompanied me today and helped overcome my fears. Thanks!


My skates were happy to be used again!





Villa Bali

Villa Bali, also fondly known as "Little Bali" is a gem hidden amongst peering willowy trees in the heart of Alexandra. It reflects true Balinese style with rustic Balinese arches and structures, allowing you to sample Balinese lifestyle and culture. Serving delectable IndoChina cuisines, Villa Bali provides an idyllic atmosphere for dining and chilling out.


A satiating mix of Thai, Indonesian and Indian cuisines tantalised our tastebuds and definitely filled our tummies.

Studying with Yin Ling

Ganbatte girl! All the best for your exam! I am anticipating the yummy food and fun activities on our to-do-list.


My face was the canvas for Cass' makeup. This is her masterpiece.The doctor and nurses at this clinic were obviously Walt Disney's fans.


The chicken rice stall that was supposedly a favourite of Singapore Idol, Taufik Batisah. To me, the chicken was a little under-roasted and the rice a bit hard. Nevertheless, the companion made the food tasty and the lunch enjoyable.


"No dogs allowed" sign that Ling liked a lot and insisted I took, or else she would roll on the floor and create a scene. *Kidding*


My beloved Mac that kept me occupied while Ling mugged.


Our loyal companion. A true friend indeed! (Fillet O Fish)


Cass studying for her exam and I accompanying her (for four days). How good a friend am I! ^^

Patience

Danny said, "Maybe you completed it too fast, and you're not enjoying the process.... some food for thought.. it's not the end result.. its the journey that we all grow from."

He said this in regards to my patience level.

I was told that I need to be more patient. So, I said the advantage of being impatient is, I am highly efficient at getting things done. Thus, his reply as above.

I shall mull over what he said.

So, what does my patience level do for me?

Ponder... ponder... ponder... ^^

Welcome to My World

I am starting my life afresh!
No job... no emotional commitment...
Just special memories... wonderful friends... beloved family... God...
I strive for a life that is colourful, blissful and happy in my own way.
One that best reflects the true me.
Simple Me. Simple Happiness.
