Stiff Neck....

Woke up with a stiff neck yesterday morning...... soooo stiff that I could only turn my head to the right side. So, I had a pretty hard time in the office... Whenever someone spoke to me on my left, I got to practically move my torso to the left to respond to the speaker...This same action would also apply to situations where someone or something nice and attractive happens to be on my left and I want to see......

Met up with Stephen after work at City Hall. Told him about my predicament.... and guess what? He shared with me an ancient folklore to remedy such condition.... He said I should take my pillow out to sun it and then spank it REAL HARD... That should ensure that my stiff neck is cured and I would have a good night sleep... Duhz.... I rather spank the bums of others than my own pillow... haha....

Passed by a pharmacy and gosh.... Heaven was kind to me.... There was this salesman giving out Salonpas samples!! My "yeow gui" nature got the better of me and I dragged Stephen to queue up to collect the free Salonpas... heh......

Made Stephen stick the Salonpas on my neck and there he was whining and complaining about the herbal smell emitting from the plaster....Oh come on, my darn neck is hurting like hell so please show some compassion... duhz....

After a few hours, my neck felt less painful.... Hmm.... I think I would rather stick Salonpas than to spank my pillow haha... Salonpas Rocks!!!

Lose Some Gain Some

Had been thinking about things over the last weekend... 3 months had passed and yes... I have gotten over ** but there is still a tiny weeny bit in me that tells me that ** still affect me in a minute way....

Anyway I have come to realise that in life, you lose some you gain some....I may have lost **, but I have gained ALOT more, e.g. new friendships of Mark, Sandy and Beatrice, thanks to Clara haha... oh ya, they are extremely nice and fun people :) , gotten closer to my family and having care, concern and support from close friends :)

Thanks Clara and "brather" Gary, for being there for me most of the time when I was down and not forgetting Victor and Ee-lynn for their support during work :) Of cos I have not forgotten the rest of my friends who had been there for me during this dark period, however I can't possibly list everyone right? (if not I would be like saying some congratutory speech at a Grammy Award ceremony haha). THANKS GUYS!!

Guess I'm more or less over **.... Oh, came across this song which I have been listening over and over again because the lyrics is soooooooo me haha

You'll Think Of Me - Keith Urban

I woke up early this morning around 4am
With the moon shining bright as headlights on the interstate
I pulled the covers over my head and tried to catch some sleep
But thoughts of us kept keeping me awake
Ever since you found yourself in someone else's arms
I've been tryin' my best to get along
But that's OK
There's nothing left to say, but
Take your records, take your freedom
Take your memories I don't need'em
Take your space and take your reasons
But you'll think of me
And take your cap and leave my sweater
'Cause we have nothing left to weather
In fact I'll feel a whole lot better
But you'll think of me, you'll think of me
I went out driving trying to clear my head
I tried to sweep out all the ruins that my emotions left
I guess I'm feeling just a little tired of this
And all the baggage that seems to still exist
It seems the only blessing I have left to my name
Is not knowing what we could have been
What we should have been So
Take your records, take your freedom
Take your memories I don't need'em
Take your space and take your reasons
But you'll think of me
And take your cap and leave my sweater
'Cause we have nothing left to weather
In fact I'll feel a whole lot better
But you'll think of me
Someday I'm gonna run across your mind
Don't worry, I'll be fine
I'm gonna be alright
While you're sleeping with your pride
Wishing I could hold you tight
I'll be over you
And on with my life
So take your records, take your freedom
Take your memories I don't need'em
And take your cap and leave my sweater
'Cause we have nothing left to weather
In fact I'll feel a whole lot better
But you'll think of me
So take your records, take your freedom
Take your memories I don't need'em
Take your space and all your reasons
But you'll think of me
And take your cap and leave my sweater
'Cause we got nothing left to weather
In fact I'll feel a whole lot better
But you'll think of me, you'll think of me, yeah
And you're gonna think of me
Oh someday baby, someday

Bittersweet Revenge

S is enjoying... totally enjoying.... and indulging in his bittersweet revenge... After months of heartache and despair, the revenge came timely and proved to be invigorating for S...

The idea of "tit for tat" worked pretty well for S and it is definately in line with his philosophy of "if people treat S good, S will treat people better and if people treat S shabbily, S makes sure people learn the true meaning of hell"...... Indeed... and it was just the beginning of the "game"....

You may regard S as a spiteful, malicious person and may think that revenge begets revenge..... but think again..... how much did S really went through? Right now, S is merely letting ** have a taste of the medicine.....Not too much to ask for right?

S just want ** to know that he is not the carpet that ** can just walk or trample on but the carpet that is capable of suffocating **.....................

The Forbidden Kingdom

It was a mad rush for me yesterday. Mark came to fetch me and Sandy to Raffles Place to meet Clara and Beatrice for gym. Attended the 740pm Bodycombat class.... Practically ran to shower after my gym as I was supposed to meet my brother to catch a 920pm show, "The Forbidden Kingdom" at Vivocity!! Well, you can imagine how rush it was for me....However, come to think of it, it was worth the rush. Don't be mistaken that I was referring to how fantastic the show was (well in actual fact it was just mediocre) but the fact that it had been a long long time since my brother and I went out together. :)

The Forbidden Kingdom

From a philosophical viewpoint it is fitting that the inaugural movie unites the two martial arts legends Jackie Chan and Jet Li. However, I feel it is a fantasy film for young teenagers or rather, just another film out to cheat Ang Mos' $$..............Hey, imagine the deities speaking in English!!! OMG!!!! The worse part is.... the story of "Sun WuKong" was brutally distorted.....

On the hindsight, the movie did had its good points. The computer graphics were fantastic and the show featured several scenic places.

Erm... for those who intend to catch this show, I recommend that you watch this on a weekday as it is not worth the $$ to catch it on weekends. Lucky I did not have to pay for the movie as I had tickets to "The Forbidden kingdom" Gala Premiere hehe :p

Touch My Body for 4 Minutes and then Stop & Stare

Before you start to think the title of my post remotely resembles that of a porn show, I got to clarify that the title is just a combination of 3 song titles which I have been listening to recently... Extracts of the lyrics are "in sequence" for a reason. Enjoy...........


Touch My Body - Mariah Carey

Touch my body
Put me on the floor
Wrestle me around
Play with me some more
Touch my body
Throw me on the bed
I just wanna make you feel
Like you never did.
Touch my body
Let me wrap my thighs
All around your waist
Just a little taste
Touch my body
Know you love my curves
Come on and give me what I deserve
And touch my body.


4 Minutes - Madonna & Justin Timberlake

Hold Hold up Hold up
Slow slow down
Listen give me 10 minutes...
Well gimme 5 minutes.....
before you leave I just need these last 4 minutes...
Pardon me if I'm talking fast and stumbling all over my words
I heard you were leavin' town I thought I'd be the one to know first
If you have a minute let me talk to you and see what's going on
Don't say it's nothing when it's gotta be something that's gone wrong
Now let me explain but I don't know what to say cause I don't know what the hell happened
I come in the house to try to work it out and all you're doing is packing
Close your suitcase let me think straight
Damn what could be the reason?
Baby talk me I'm almost outta time


Stop & Stare - One Republic

’This town is colder now, I think it’s sick of us
It’s time to make our move, I’m shakin off the rust
I’ve got my heart set on anywhere but here
I’m staring down myself, counting up the years
Steady hands, just take the wheel...
And every glance is killing me
Time to make one last appeal... for the life I lead
Stop and stare
I think I’m moving but I go nowhere
Yeah I know that everyone gets scared
But I’ve become what I can’t be, oh
Stop and stare
You start to wonder why you’re ’here’ not there
And you’d give anything to get what’s fair
But fair ain’t what you really need
Oh, can u see what I see
They’re tryin to come back, all my senses push
Un-tie the weight bags, I never thought I could...
Steady feet, don’t fail me now
Gonna run till you can’t walk
But something pulls my focus out
And I’m standing down...

Pasta Brava

Went Pasta Brava (located at 11 Craig Road, Tanjong Pagar) with Victor, Maggie and Ee-lynn last Friday. Victor treated us dinner as a celebration for his promotion! Heh :)



Italian restaurant with an "old-school" feel






Woo hoo.... salad!!







Seafood soup.... taste great but... looks complicated as there were too much "goodies" packed in a small bowl







My main course..... ta dah..... dory!!! yeah!!!!







Oh the desserts were really out-of-this-world man, especially the tiramisu... Yum yum!!





Overall, the food and ambience was fantastic. However the price was abit steep, BUT its ok as it was Victor's treat wahahahah :p Stanley gives Pasta Brava a 4 out of 5 stars!!

Rose Veranda, Shang-Ri-La

Met up with Gary for high-tea at Rose Veranda, Shang-Ri-La Hotel. Quite liked the place as Shang-Ri-La is away from the bustling city and maddening crowd. Had a great time chatting, feasting and also "appreciating" tea. Gosh... did I mention Rose Veranda actually have more than 100 selections of tea for us to choose from? Wow..... "Atas" living for me huh? hahaha :p






The interior of Rose Veranda








Gary enjoying his caramel tea, erm... which I find it to taste more like "teh O" haha :p








Oh ya.... forgot to mention that they actually had 20 over cheeses for diners to choose from.... wow...... and according to Gary, Blue Cheese stinks like hell but it is very nutritious haha








Me taking a break from the food and cam-whoring :p








Well Rose Veranda is quite a nice place and food is great. The only drawback is that the selection of food is rather limited. If only their selection of food is as awesome as their selection of tea, well that will be great!! Haha
