God Speaks to Each of Us

God Speaks to Each of Us

God speaks to each of us before we are,

Before he's formed us then, in cloudy speech,

But only then, he speaks these words to each

And silently walks with us from the dark:

Driven by your senses, dare

To the edge of longing.

Grow Like a fire's shadowcasting glare

Behind assembled things, so you can spread

Their shapes on me as clothes.

Don't leave me bare.

Let it all happen to you: beauty and dread.

Simply go no feeling is too much

And only this way can we stay in touch.

Near here is the land

That they call Life.

You'll know when you arrive

By how real it is.

Give me your hand.

- Rainer Maria Rilke

Miracle Game I watched

Today was the biggest exciting and painful feeling to watch the best 2 teams Man Utd and Chelsea. My dear and I chose to watch Man Utd played with Everton today and before the first half time, Man Utd played very badly and was conceded one goal in. MU played so many games without resting due to major fixtures such as European Championship Semi Final and FA Cup and EPL too.

Seen the result between Chelsea and Bolton came with draw 2 - 2 was the little disguise lucky to let Man Utd remains top in EPL to chase the title soon by 3 remaining fixtures to go. Sir Alex was behaving very funny and act like "grandfather" to every MU players on field when 4 goals winning in. Surprised to see the newest player like Eagle, yet he scored in one.

I admitted to say that Everton played very well and even tried very hard to stop MU from scoring in but to be fair that Everton had got 2 goals in which resulted in MU 4 - Everton 2. Same for Bolton who played against Chelsea but delivered the best news to know that Blue earned only one point.

I am still support to Man Utd since 1994. Unbelieveable isnt it ?? In fact, it is the true. Even I remember the old players of MU, like Eric Cantona, Lee Sharpe, Roy Keane, Peter Sch, Boston, Ruud, Yorke and many more..... who deserved to be remember by the people who suppot MU all the way.

Now I really hope MU to win the EPL championship 2006/07 title, FA cup and European Champion to repeat the memorable history of treble winner 1999. So that I will buy the authentic Man Utd kids jersery for my newborn baby which will be due in November 2007. Exciting ????

What is a CLOSE GAP escape ??

Yesterday was the Grand Final "Live" of Miss Singapore Universe 2007 and big game of EPL - NEWCASTLE VS CHELSEA. I chose to watch EPL instead as I expected chelsea to lose this match or draw because of disappointment game between Man Utd and Boro ended up draw 1 - 1.

No idea what went wrong with MAN UTD? No fighting spirit to score more shown at Old Trafford. Man Utd defence crisis is getting worse and weaker already. 6 players are on injury list and no doubt of any sign of good news of them. I really hope MAN UTD to win the remaining 3 - 4 left matches to chase the title smoothly.

After the first half of newcastle and chelsea, I changed the channel quickly to catch who was in Top 10 and Top 5. After that, I watched EPL again with my dear. Yeah, we were very anxiously and made sure newcastle must blocked chelsea from scoring in.

Then it delivered a relief sign that Chelsea showed the disappointed reaction after 90 + 4 extra mins ended up with goalless draw. grin.....

I finally caught to watch the show and seen all the 18 finalists on stage. I never expected this MSU 07 Jessica Tan was the winner of MSU 2007 despite of her height only 167cm. At first all the way, I only pinned hope on MSU 01 Christabel Campbell to be the one winner as she is young only 19, tallest 178cm and look good enough to respresent Singapore for Miss Universe 2007 in Mexico City.

Look back to MSU 2004 winner crown, Sandy Chua was only 19 years old. Now she is homemaker and waiting for first child arrive in August 2007. No wonder, have not heard anything about her since then.

Back then from MSU 2003 to 2006, I did not have a chance to watch as I thought it would be a little waste of my time to watch MSU. So only I could read anything about MSU 2003 - 2007 thru 8-days magazines. Guess I m just abit ignorant about MSU thingy.

Bad Customer Services

Yesterday 18th April 2007, I accompanied my dear to Ang Mo Kio Hub where he supposed to meet his client there. I was told that AMK Hub has alot of shops selling fashion clothes and also alot of food outlets to choose. So I decided to take a look there.

I would say that AMK Hub is far better than one at Toa Payoh Air Con Interchange as AMK Hub has many shops such as almost the same as at Far East Plaza. But the clothes there at AMK is not very latest trend and prices of clothes are quite expensive. Not much people there. At TPY, all shops are not much appealing to me and that is why I hardly go there (like once every 3 months on).

Then we went up to Food Court for our lunch time and at same time, my dear was busy talking to his client. Good thing was that his client was super friendly and I managed to catch 10 - 15 mins sms chat with her face to face. After that, I decided to take a walk around shops downstairs.

I wont name the two shops whose salegirls are super bad at customer service I encountered was the worst more than those one at far east plaza. And it was my first time visit there and yet they gave me very very bad impression. I was extrememly disappointed and decided not to buy dress and skirt from those 2 shops. I will say that salesgirl at shops are worse than those sellers of yahoo auction / ebay.

Cases:

1) one small shop selling alot of women clothes and the young salegirl is quite pretty but behaves very arrogant. She stood very stiff near her cashier counter and did not bother to approach customers who are looking at clothes to browse before decide to buy or not. I saw one girl was trying the chiffon skirt and poor girl asked salegirl for help.

Guess what happened?

This salegirl only took the ugly skirt for her to try even this designed skirt could not suitable her. Bad taste choice of this salegirl chose for her. Only this poor girl's friend came to help her to choose. Till they could not take it with this salegirl's bad attitude and they decided to leave and wont buy anything. So I took my turn to try this chiffon skirt. Then look at this salegirls didnt bother to ask me to try this at dressing room and pretended she did not see me busy choosing one of 2 skirts I wanted to buy. What to do ? Best is dont buy skirt from her who has nasty attitude towards customers.


2) my last visit was the shop which selling both baby and women clothes. I saw the floral colorful dress in the display and I really liked this dress. Actually I know this dress comes from which country as I know this manufacture company somemore. So nevermind about this. I came in this shop and found few nice dresses to try. Then guess what young salegirl doing ?

She was sitting and shaking legs at the counter and didnt bother to stand up when I came in the shop. I was looking at few dresses to try, this salesgirl didnt approach me to ask if I need help or else. Then in end I took my turn to ask her whether can try this dress. She still was sitting there and nodded her head saying can try. What is this attitude of her?

After I tried the dress and came out from dressing room, I saw this salegirl suddenly came out and pretended to be hardworking when the boss came in. So good acting this young salegirl has this kind of bad attitude. So I asked the salegirl that I wanted this flora dress at display, she asked the boss. Werid???? So in end I dont buy this dress from hyprocite salegirl. Poor boss for being blind to hire her as salesgirl.

I am still avid shopper at yahoo auction & ebay and seen much difference from online seller to shop salegirls. None of online seller has nasty or poor attitude as at customer services I encountered before. Somemore I am seller online too and polish up myself to be practical as good customer service.

I will never go AMK HUB ever again to buy clothes from shops there. Even I left AMK Hub with my dear after walking around 2 hours.

Horror Symptoms I Faced

Was bored to very very upset at home and I could not go out alone at this early stage of pregnancy as I sometimes get very bad dizzy or feeling abnormal pain or backpain and nausea. Admit to say that I really hate those horror feeling which I have to deal with it bravely to move on.

I used to think that mothers-to-be or pregnant women will not feel those irrirating feeling or any pregnancy symptoms. I realised that I was wrong especially when I was just one month pregnancy, I got backpain constantly, lose some appetites, often get very "wind" vomite feeling and tired very very fast to make me lose my own interest which I used to be. It is very sad encounter for me to bear this and that.

Then now is past 2nd month pregnancy stage, I tried to pull myself through and my hubby kept saying be patient and 9-10 months will be past very very fast. I keep nodding to say "yes" all the time but to me, I am really frightend of being put on weight so much and even stretch marks on my belly. Also I have to buy new maternity clothes, alamak..... real headache to me when come to think this...

I do not know if will all stretch marks DISAPPEAR after I give birth ......... help me....

After barely 2 months, I am trying very very hard not to think much of this and that unnecessarily. What to do ? Just put on huge smile and be stay happy for a new baby's sake. Also I want those horror pain to disappear from me - I do not want to have this BackPain, "wind" vomite feeling or get tired very fast within every 15 - 30 mins. *tap on my forehead* Just close my eyes will do and let time fly very fast in no time soon is even better for me.

Was told that I should rest more at home but I could not shut my eyes well especially at afternoon. So sometimes at afternoon, I just watch television or reading books / magazines or surf internet to read site such as singapore motherhood or catch a look at korea website to make myself feel less pain suffering, ya.

This picture of the latest Blue Leather Tote Bag Made in Korea that caught my sight very deeply. Yeah I do love this designed bag of Korea which is far better than those branded bags. I do not know why I started to appreciate those fashion eletric blue color. I cannot say because of fashion trend color. It is my own individual thought.

But please bear a tiny mind that exchange rate in Korea is quite expensive compare to those bags selling at Far East Plaza or Bugis Village. This blue leathe tote bag costs in korea dollars : - Won 89,000. But my own opinion that it is worth to have this bag to be carried thoughtout the seasons or can carry for more than 2 years till bag is worn out.

Inside this bag has leopard layer protection and it has a few compartments to be put for hp or keys blah blah..... Tote bag is more roomy and space for my baby stuffs (milk bottles and wet tissue and nappies and else) inside bag in case I bring baby out. Worth thought.... :))

Actually when I see this bag, it makes me alittle happy and I forget about the pain for 2 - 4 days already. Then I can move around and visit mother's home in yishun to play with my darling nephew and niece.

Blank Beauty

BLANK BEAUTY

Beautiful blank pages

kiss our

imaginations

with backgrounds

that demand precision.

Our black letters cross

on tightrope lines,

curving

without wavering

across deep, invisible currents.

These beautiful blank pages

are promises of our

reflections.

Our gentlest strokes

of darkness upon light.

A quota written by her

I happened to read a blog which is written by one of my friends who are neither my buddy nor close friend. Just like a normal friend even we were from same secondary school.

A quota written by her:

i admit i'm not good in friendship with them esp all gals. they like getting mistakes, backstabbing me, challenging with me, making my love hate me and miscommunicating. in fact, i lost alot of gals that they re used to be my best buddies and closefriends when i was in primary and sec sch. they believe others more than me. i feel no point to get them back coz i've no power~ so now i must make sure tat i protect my clear name. please don't change my attitudes if u don't like me. sorry i don't want to change myself to better person coz most in my attitudes re good enough except poor friendship. friendship is not worthy to me as if i've big debt problem, u think they can help me? no right? i've thought many times when i lost friends. realize and be strong. i don't feel sad of losing friends but i really don't want losing my BEST GOD sisters and brothers, my love and even my ex. but other good thing, friends can keep me accompany and have fun.

She can be abit straightforward when come to write in her blog but it is a big way out of line which meant she wrote this is nonsense. Only take out this part to be point out. Briefly, I actually know her and seen her before in tuition centre but did not introduced as a friends. But I am aware something about her life and herself as I have seen her few times before. Also communicated with her many times till then I realised she cannot be my trusted friend. That is why I said only a normal friend.

See the green color format of quota which she wrote in her blog. See all the time she mentioned friendship, girls, guys and other irrelvant which is non of her business. yet she likes to bitch around without people's consent or dont know how to respect people's feeling. I did not see any faults lie with her own friends. In fact, it is her thinking or attitude problem which she is being mislead of misunderstood others without finding what is happening. She sometimes can be little careless about herself and also deny herself which it is her fault too. Admit to say that, it is a big yes that she is the weakest person among my friends as she did not know how to think properly and only know how to break people's personal issues to the others.

She said that friendship is not worthy to her as if she is in big debt. Why should she mentioned friendship again and again? What about her own parents? I simply do not understand why she is so good at using friendship as a threat when if she is in big debt. It is not her friends fault anyway and it is none wrong with her friends who involved big debt with her.

Of course I should say that she is at fault for being landed herself in big debt as she borrows money from others even though she is a full time stable working already. Somemore she is overly spend-thrift and failed to save some saving for her future. I know her this part as her weakness.

What is a big joke of what she was writing like this with nonsense?

I just want to speak out of this after I read this in her blog and I really do not need to tell her. it is her own thinking like this. No way for me to tell her myself. I do not like to waste my time to tell her this and that. She is not going to listen this and that is why she is losing her own friends one by one. Hopefully she will learn this lesson herself and remain the same as herself.

LOVE LOVE Shi Adessoi (Spring)

Happening to browse thru taiwan yahoo auction and saw the liking spring collection of Shi Adessoi which I fell in love with those various trendy free - spirited tops I love very much. But unfortunately my computer does not have translant language to interprete every complicated chinese words into english language. I am computer idiot lor.

It is Spring Collection now over the world, sure you have seen those words shown on every banners such as mango or zara or topshop and other branded items.

Spring collection trendy clothes are always the best and nicer & better than the collection of Winter. Very upset to say that I cannot wear them or order those right now due to my commitment - which is meant that I am newly now expectant. So only looking for fashion maternity clothes now. *headache*

Those 5 pictures I uploaded here -

to show how much I love their spring clothes very much and even I drooling over them non - stop.

Of course I am very desperate to own them to add in my wardrobe happily. Because in Singapore, not many shops will sell those clothes. Very hard to walk around at FEP or Bugis or Heeren or else to find them, very very troublesome. Rather go through speed browse at yahoo auction then order them without sweating headache. :))
