Tones of Pink

I countdown to this morning since last saturday....
it is like i am going to ICU to visit my fren,
the 'doctor' say, 'u can view ur fren from this window...'
then he con't, 'after the scanning, only 95% recovery...'
my fingers run thru the window, as if stroking my fren and giving him some comfort fingers....
i asked, 'when can my fren be discharged?'
the doctor said, 'tml morning shld be ok.'

tml then.....
in case u have not figured out, .... that was what happened i visited my fren, Harddisk, this morning...

As many are informed,
my 2 months old hard disk crash on me on friday afternoon.
I am now in the midst of recovering my old data, if possible.....i hope so....

I need to settle down with my new hard disk before i can blog peacefully agn....
=(

I CAN! I CAN!!
i can definately smell the party favour! :)

The little man in our house.



he was quite quiet during the wedding.
look at this well captured picture...

caption: "what is every aunties doing here? I don wan to sleep, why are they insisting me to carry the pillow??"

this was before i march down for the solemnization at rasa on that eventful day...
I like.

After 2 months....
the fotos are finally ready :)

fantastic shots,
those pictures all has a story to tell.

When we first engage Ron's service, we told him that he doesn't have to take traditional shots for us. no need to take group shots.
not that group shots are not important. they are impt....!
but, we prefer to ask ron to take something more then that.... :)

u hv to put the right resource at the right field, dun u agree?

Im glad we made that decision.

Now, while we flip thru the 300 fotos, we see not jus me and livingstone's pictures, not jus the table fotos, not jus the group fotos, ...
we now see MORE things, MORE details, MORE stories.....
more enthusiam, more blessings from our friends.

very nicely taken.
thank u ron! :)

kenneth and reena invited us to their place for his special fried bee hoon.
very special.
with sauce from malaysia, bits of bacon and fish cake.
at least something different from my mom's.... hee...
thanks man!!!


the soya sauce from malaysia lor....
so cute right, comes with double XI icon.

and they have a cat in the house.
her name is nek nek....
she is special. she is three-legged.
but mind u! she runs very fast!
i couldn't take a good picture of her, bcos she is rather shy, maybe its becos of her condition,
and she might have developed an inferior complex....
so no flash....


we missed star awards last sunday when we attended lawrence and joanne's wedding...
so we went back for a repeat telecast.
Mom went to malaysia, so we have time to stay home and enjoy home cook food.

i first time attempt to cook carrot-potato-pork-rib-soup lo....
and i added "pao-shen"
very tonic wor.... hee...

and my sista taught me the art of terriyaki...
hee....

so, all these made up the value meal for the nite. :)
it was raining outside as we sip our hot hot soup.....
shiok...

then i baked cookies.....

woooo....my whole baking sheet of cookies!

that's my x'mas cookies....
find the only two aeroplanes in there.....that's for ryan boy... hee...

and when done, i wrapped it with aluminium foil....
it became my gift for my colleague this morning.


May their day be as sweet as my chocolate x'mas cookie.... :)

My sista gave us a treat @ Por Kee the other nite.
it is our 1st time there....



this is good, usually im skeptical abt ordering plain vege stir fried with garlic.
but this amazed me. fragrantly nice.


champage pork ribs.
think it had honey too.
NICE.




$18 for this. reasonably priced.


this dinner cost us $82 for a table of 4+1.
not bad rite.
food is good.
we'll go back agn.

ever since ryan goes to childcare, he looks like dat after school.

hmm, either he is too tired or too boring. :)

livingstone spotted the rainbow at buangkok green on sunday evening.
Nice.

It was the nite of Lawrence and Joanne's wedding.
at Pan Pacific, there we were, congratulating them.

we had 2 different kinds of wedding favours.

this is the 2nd one. cuter. hee...

they had the premium menu.
see the thick thick sharks fin!!

and dessert is double boiled hashima.
yum yum!

before we bid goodbye to them, 1 more foto!

the banquet covers 57 tables, so look at the car park condition as we try to move out....
tsk tsk tsk....

the lovely ladies bought us good wine.
thank u so much u lovely pple!! :)

ahem.....this is the lunch i prepared for them.
sauteed chicken with bbq sauce. the value meal comes with vege, carrot,
and red wine of cos.

the lovely ladies...(one more late)

we talk and eat, watch and drink.
from cold drink to hot drink.
haha, i say we had a good time, dun we??!

the 4s by the x'mas tree...

then they left when sun sets.....


that evening, CBD area is very clear.
can u see?


livingstone brought me to chomp chomp for dinner.
he had devon's carbonara.
and i tell u, it is awful.
no egg, and no smell of garlic.
very awful. for 5bucks somemore.


i had satay bee hoon. so-so only.


we will go back there for the thai food someday though.

As I was saying, I was away.
I went to Brisbane for a short work trip.
Had been there a few times, so there's nothing for me to rave about.
But i did go back to Dash for a cup of my fav hot coco, and yes, with 2 mash mallows.


and i always likes to eat AZ's focassia, maybe its the combination of the avocado, the chicken and the vege....dono....but its some kind of a chemistry i have, with...well...this bunch of bread. :)


its the holiday season, air ticket and accomodations are difficult to book.
so we have to stay at F1 motel. anyway, its only for a few nites.

that's the room. good for 3 pple.
but there was only 1 for the nites. ME. and just ME.


1 of the nites we had steak for dinner.
that's the soup.

and my medium-rare steak.

we had our dinner at 10pm that nite. haha...
lucky enuf, still got food for us to eat lo!

and lucky we had this, the GPS, my colleague bought it, and it becomes so easy,
no more flipping thru pages of a street directory!! yeah!!
i hate the maps.


I came back earlier then expected.
supposed to touch down on sat, but i managed to catch the earlier flight, and got back here by friday 8pm.
i didnt call livingstone to pick me.
had wanted to give him a sweet surprise.
well, when i touched down, i sms him to ask him to log onto msn to talk to me, while i lied that i was at brisbane airport. then after he logged on, i 'ding dong' appear by the door.
I hope i gave him a pleasant and sweet surprise.....
heh heh....

For the 1st time,
i have decided to prepare a healthy meal at home.
A Steam Meal.

Steam Egg, Steam Fish and boiled vegetables.




not very tasty la, but we'll try agn!! :)
(and this meal was prepared the nite before i fly.)

yeah yeah!!!

I'll be away from 6th of Dec till 9th of Dec.....
Cya....and im gonna miss my home... :)
