For the girls to melt and the guys to learn
My husband is a scientist by profession, I love him for his steady-being nature, and I love the warm feeling while lean against his broad shoulder. Three years in the courtship and now, two years into marriage, I would have to admit, I am getting tired of it, the reasons of me loving him before has now transform into the cause of all the restlessness. I am a sentimental woman and extremely sensitive and exquisite when it comes to relationship and feelings, I yearn for romantic moments, as though a little boy yearning for candy. And my husband, is just a contrastof me, his lack of sensitivity, and of all, inability of bringing romantic moments into our marriage has disheartened me about love. One day, I finally decided to tell him my decision, that I want a divorce. "Why?" he asked, shocking. "I am tired, there aren't reasons for everything in the world" I answered. He kept silent the whole night, seems to be in deep thoughts the whole night with cigarette lighted all the times. My feeling of disappointment is getting intense, a man who can't even express his detainment, what else can I hope from him? And finally he asked :" What can I do to change your mind?" Somebody said it right, it's hard to change a person's personality, and I guess, I have started losing faith in him. Look deep into his eyes and I slowly answered : "Here is a question, if you can find the answer in my heart, I will changemy mind, Let say, I love a flower at a mountain cliff, and we both sure that the making you to pick the flower will cause death, will you do it for me?" He said :" I will give you your answer tomorrow...." My heart just sink by listening to his respond. The next morning, he was not around, and I saw a piece of paper with his scratching writing, underneath a glass of warm milk, It goes.... Dear, "I would not pick that flower for you, but please allowed me to further explain the reasons " this first lines has already break my heart. I continue reading. "You can only type with computer and always messed up the programs in the PC, and cries in front of screen, I have to saved my fingers so that I can help to restore the programs. You always left the house key behind, I have to save my legs to rush home for opening the door for you. You love traveling but always lose your way in a new city, I have to save my eyes to leads you the way. You always has the cramp whenever your "good friend" approach every month, I have to save my palm so that I can calm the cramp at your tummy. You like to stays indoor, and I worries that you will be infected by infantile autism. I have to save my mouth to tells you jokes and stories to cure your boredom. You always stared at the computers, and that do no good to your eyes, I have to save my eyes so that when we grow older, I can help to clip your nails,and help to removed those annoying white hairs. I will hold your hand, stroll down the beach, enjoying the sunshine and the beautiful sands... tells you the colour of flowers, just like the glow on your young face... Thus, my dear, before I am sure there are someone who loves you more than I do... I would not pick the flower, and die.. " My tears drops on the letters, and blurred the ink of his hand writing... and I resume my reading... "And now, dear... you have finished reading my answer, if you are satisfied with these answers, please open the door of our house, I am standing there,with your favorite bread and fresh milk... I rush to pull open the door, and saw his anxious face, with his hand holding tight on the milk and bread.... Oh I am sure no one ever love me as much, and now I have decided to leave the flower alone... That's life, or some said, love, when one is surrounded by love, the feeling of excitement fade away, and one tend to ignore the true love lies in between the peace and dullness. Love shows in any form, evena very little and corny form, it has never been a model, it could be the most incurious form... flowers, romantic moments is only the buckish formed on the surface of the relationship. Under all this, the pillar of truelove stands... and that's our life... I hope everyone enjoy reading it... love, but not words win the arguments...

Lately has been feelin down abt work... Its not the happiest stage rite now... As more n more work comes in, more n more responsiblities comes along... Haiz... My slp has been cut short as i haf to wake up early every weekdays to work n tat takes abt an hr journey... One day i shall show u the journey frm the station to my office... Realli hectic... Lunch is also another tiring thing as we haf to walk out quite a distance to get to food centres... I wont deny that theres plenty of food here but they are all located so far away... By the time we get back office, we are all sweaty n tired... Esp this few days wif the super hot weather... Now just wan to get my job here to be done wif n wait for my contract to end which is in abt 2 mths time. So lookin forward to tat day!
Ok on wif other things. Last fri went to a colleague's 21th bday celebration. It was a small n short 1 so we went to clark quay's Riverside the Indonesian restaurant. Was late tat day cos of my boss... Dun wan to tok abt it... Apologise to my colleagues who waited for me... Surprisingly, there r a lot of ppl in the restaurant! One of the tables even had a bday celebration like us too. We order the 12+++++ package wif abt 8 dishes. Since there r abt 8 of us, we haf to shift the dishes ard so tat every1 gets to eat. Actually its the 1st time that every1 gets to eat every1's saliva. Hehe... We hardly went to any "zi cha" restaurants together before. Theres one of the waitress tat we found weird. Whenever we call her, she who not acknowledge us, even though she heard n saw us callin her. Maybe she was just busy. Next one of my colleagues bought a chocolate cake. Taste yummy but was sure ex! Shall keep this as a secret here. Next is to give the bday gal her present, its a adias white jacket wif collar. After the meal, me n 3 other colleagues left 1st. I was so tired tat day cos of work. So glad weekends were coming after tat.
So my only leisure other than work came the next day. On Sat, i went to my 4rd driving lesson. This time i was taught how to turn into sharp lanes n to change lanes. Even though it was not easy to learn at 1st but i realli enjoyed the lessons so far. Sun was the day tat i got the chance to drive on outside roads. I was wonderin if im able to drive outside but after a few turns in the same area, i started to enjoy the ride n got excited. The intstructor den told me to straight drive to the main road, tats when the most excited part starts! Hehe... realli had fun! Am glad i took up driving lessons. :)
There wont be any anime reviews for this mth le unless u guys wan to know more abt other episodes of the animes tat i had review (tag n let me know). I want to introduce a Jap dorama called Nodame Cantabile. Actually theres an anime of this title too but i think a change to real live actin series will be gd. U can watch the dorama in www.crunchyroll.com. U haf to join as member to watch it though.
Nodame Cantabile is actually a comic-make series abt a very talented man (Chiaki) who wanted to be a Musical Conductor but could not becos of his accident when he was young which causes him to be afraid of planes. One day, he met a strange gal (Nodame) who happens to be his neighbour. Together they slowly help each other wif their own goals without knowin it themselves. Its a humorous, soul-touchin series wif a touch of romance. Recommend to those who likes classical music n music notes frm Mozart n Beethoven.

Lately been very busy with work. I'm taking over some ppl's stuff and now am gettin more stress... Haiz... How I wish my contract ends soon... But then without the pay, Im unable to buy the stuff I want. So preserve!
Last weekend was great! I met up wif tor on Sun to go walk walk from Bugis to Orchard! It was quite a long walk to Doby Ghuat... But we spend the most at Bugis Icon. Cos we saw a shop having up to 50% sales and a shop selling sexy Japanese lingerie. I bought 2 sets in the shop and it cost me 110 bucks! But I think its worth it cos Ive been attracted to Japanese lingerie for sometime. Den i bought 2 pairs of shoes in another shop... Hehe... Happy but sad that the hole in my pocket has gotten even bigger... Im goin to stop buying!
On mon met up wif wendy for driving lesson. Actually we were sittin for final theory lessons but we end attendin a basic theory class! Gosh~ We didnt know that lesson 1 & 2 are for basics and lesson 3 & 4 are for final theory... In the end we waited for lesson 3 and left after that as we were meeting tor in Vivo city.
Labour Day was a tiring day for me as Ive been on shoppin spree for the past 2 days... My legs started to feel the sourness... So rested at home, watch a few animes and play my new game. Nintendo DS Pokemon Diamond. Even though average players are for younger ppl but I still like Pokemon. Its a great RPG(Role-Playing Game)! The graphics is better, the pokemons look cooler, the music and sound is better and theres a lot more to explore than in older versions. Hehe...
Ok feel like reviewin some animes today. Here goes:
Love Complex ~ Episode 1 ~ Koizumi Risa and Ootani Atsushi have been fighting with each other ever since they met cos of their Height difference. Koizumi Risa is too tall for a gal and Ootani Atsushi is too short for a guy. One day they decided to find their own boyfriend/girlfriend as they are always being called freak twins. Risa fell in love with a guy from Risa and Atsushu's tuition class. Atsushi likes Risa's friend so they decided to help each other and asked Suzuki and Chiharu out together. In the end, Suzuki ends up fallin for Chiharu. Both Risa and Atsushi are sad as they are not treated as their own gender... Suzuki feels that Risa is like a guy cos of her tall height and vice versa for Atsushi. They decided to try again and asked Suzuki and Chiharu out but the chemistry between the both of them are greater. Atsushi and Risa ends up leavin the both of them alone and went off together to the festival.
My impression I like this anime cos of the story and the humour. The graphics is not as nice but its worth to watch. I'm thinkin Atsushi and Risa will end up together but lets hope Atsushi can grow taller to suit Risa. Hehe~ Great opening music too.
KISS DUM -ENGAGE planet- ~ Episode 1 ~ Link The screen shows a heavy storm in the Pacific Ocean and there are people drowning into the sea below. A ship had hit on a huge rock and ppl in the ship is thrown overboard (looks like Titanic...). Then a monster appear and eats up the ship. 2000 years later, humans are enjoying a prosperous existence until strange life forms called Hardians appear. There are mosquitoes-like creatures with eyes that will flash pink when they are about to attack. These mosquitoes-like creatures will protect the bigger monster when they are being attacked. A fighter pilot, Aiba Shu was involved in exterminating the monster but was being attacked and killed. A lady came by his side and uses the rumored "Book of a Dead" sword and stabbed on the chest.
My impression I love the graphics! The male seiyuus sound nice. Hehe... The story looks kinda dark though. I think the "Book of a Dead" can be used to revive a dead living. Shall see the next episode.
OverDrive ~ Episode 1 ~ Link Boy meets bicycle. This is a story about cycling and cycling competitions. Mikoto Shinozaki is a loser type of guy who is very clumsy, very shy and quiet guy who always get got bullied. He likes a girl (Yuki Fukazawa) who sits beside in class. One day Mikoto was paintin Yuki in his stetch book after school. Just then, Yuki walked by the classroom and went towards him. They started talking and Yuki advice him on how to be a better guy. Then Mikoto requested to paint her picture. While painting, Mikoto got very serious into it. Yuki saw the part of him that she had nv saw b4 and asked him if he was interested in joinin the cycling club. Mikoto had doubts about that and told her he didnt know how to cycle. That night, Mikoto dream of riding a bicyle with Yuki in a bikini sitting behind him. That got him to decide to join the cycling club.
My impression At 1st I wasnt goin to watch this anime cos of the image of the guy. I thought it was goin to be just a normal cycling competition show but Ive read reviews abt it saying theres a cute girl in it and its like goin to haf a bit of romance so i decided to try it. To my surprise, i quite like this anime as the main character is funny. The story of his determination is also great so i will keep watchin this anime.
