Every struggle in your life has shaped you into the person you are today. Be thankful for the hard times as they mould you to be a stronger person. Everything else will fall in place when you gain your confidence.

The Jewel

noreply@blogger.com (whAt A LiFe) — Fri, 23 Sep 2011 12:24:00 +0000

Love is like a jewel, precious to everyone, not easy to make, setimental value if held onto too long enough, beautiful, can last a lifetime, hard to let go of. Yet people throw their jewels away without realizing how much it means to them until its too late to retrieve the jewel.

What's The New Year Has In Store?

noreply@blogger.com (whAt A LiFe) — Thu, 30 Dec 2010 07:15:00 +0000

Basically, any individual would seek for a happy year ahead with lots of good things happening, good job, good life, good friends, good encounters and the rest speaks the same way.

Being positive from the beginning of a new year brings in the positive energy, i guess.... hahaha....

Well, I'm not an exception! I'm looking forward to a splendid year too. Greatly hoping for 2011 to be a meaningful year for me. I've experienced some ups & downs in 2010, some bitter-sweet memories and some really happy moments which I still cherish.

My hubby who has been a pillar of my strength, has made me even more stronger. But I still need him when I'm lost in the world at times. Lols..... A superman who is always there for my rescue. My new year resolution is to be a good wife, good daughter, good friend and soon a good mother. I am falling in love with him again. Looking forward to a nice holiday with him for our wedding anniversary in Feb 2011. And next to be a good daughter. I love my parents a lot and without them I'm nothing! Still a small kid in front of them. Yipee!

A good friendship will always be forever. I hope to be a good friend to anyone who needs my help/advises or a shoulder to lean on. I'm always there. In return, I just expect some sincere and loyal friends to be with me for a lifetime. I'm willing to share the journey of my life with those good friends.

This new year shall bring in the descendants' luck and be blessed with good kids.

May the coming year bless us with great success, prosperity and happiness. Everyone deserves their share, so with the God's blessings,

Happy New Year, everyone.

Life Cycle (Part 1)

noreply@blogger.com (whAt A LiFe) — Fri, 26 Nov 2010 07:06:00 +0000

We came to this world empty-handed. A baby with full of expectations and unconditional love from its parents. How nice would it be if we can just rewind our life cycle and be a baby again! A cute little bundle of joy given by the God. Many have showered their love and cuddled us when we were an infant. We were too innocent and expect nothing but just their love, care and concern.

Though I could not remember my early days but I still can recall some incidents and people I have come acrossed when I was 5 years old. Those are really memories. From babies, we grow and become toddlers who needs great attention. Our parents have done an important role to nurture and educate us to be a better person. No words can describe our gratitude towards them.

My first day of school was a typical one, with teary eyes and lots of hatred. I did cried for a few days in school and once I've made new friends in class, I was the happiest person and all smiles. From then onwards, it was fun going to school. That was the first taste of friendship in my life.

Kids are always kids, they never meant any harm or had ill feelings towards people surrounding them. All they want is to play and get whatever they ask for. Such tender phase of life........

But why are things on reverse version when we grow older? I'm still confused and lost for words ........

The End of World Cup Fever 2010

noreply@blogger.com (whAt A LiFe) — Mon, 12 Jul 2010 06:41:00 +0000

After a month full of excitement, tense and late nights, it's finally over. With Spain emerging as the World Champions, they truly deserved the cup.

Their tactful ways of the ball possessions were simply mind-blowing. Holland did played a dirty game on the other hand, but still the Spaniards rendered their full strength into the game and conquered at the extra time at a 1-0 victory. Frankly speaking, I did not expect Spain to be in the Semi-finals and the shocking surprise is that they made it to the finals and got the grip of the World Cup.

As much of the game didn't turned into a goal-fest, overall the Spaniards' performances was worth watching.

The octopus was right after all.

The Best Age to Get Married

noreply@blogger.com (whAt A LiFe) — Thu, 06 May 2010 08:09:00 +0000

There are practical reasons for the mid-20s dividing line, and most of them are pressurized to two biggies: Education and Money. It always turn out, the more years of higher education a woman has under her belt on her wedding day, the lower the chances that she'll get divorced ... and by 25, she's more likely to have earned a degree or two. "Educated women tend to be more confident about who they are and less willing to settle for a man who doesn't meet their standards". Odds are that by 25 you're also supporting yourself, so there's less incentive for you to rush into marriage because you're seeking financial security from him.

But the marriage-related benefits of working and having money of your own go beyond feeling secure. Learning to budget your cash carefully when you're single will help you avoid financial problems which is one of the main causes of couple fights — for the rest of your life. And juggling responsibilities, dealing with differing personalities, and resolving conflicts shapes you to develop skills that are necessary for maintaining long-term love.

At age 25, you've had time for some crucial life experiences, including a relationship that may have improved your Mr Right. "You've probably dated enough to have a better idea of what you don't want in a man, which makes it easier to know what you can live with and can't live without". The most important aspect of waiting is that you'll know what your goals and values really are. Marriage is a lot easier if you two share a similar outlook on life. But given the choice, you might consider putting off the big day until your mid-20s or later.

Chewing gums causes wrinkles!!!

noreply@blogger.com (whAt A LiFe) — Sat, 03 Apr 2010 03:29:00 +0000

It freshens our breath and helps some to quit smoking, but some cosmetic surgeons believe chewing gum does one more thing: It gives us wrinkles!!!!!

While no studies have been done showing a link between chewing gum and wrinkles, the topic does come up with some regularity on beauty tips articles.

Experts attribute the gum-wrinkle connection to two things. First, there’s the repetitive motion of chewing, which causes lines and folds around the mouth due to muscle overuse. Chewing gum promotes muscle over-activity and potentially breaks down support tissue within the skin, contributing to volume loss and perhaps loss of skin elasticity. What's more, chewing gum can dislodge dermal fillers that people have injected into their faces to plump up their wrinkles. It actually pushes them out of the area and dissipate a lot quicker in gum chewers.

So ladies out there, please avoid the wrinkle-makers!

My Past, My Present, My Blog

noreply@blogger.com (whAt A LiFe) — Wed, 17 Mar 2010 08:16:00 +0000

It really amazed me when reading my older posts of my crazy thoughts. Seriously, blogspot has really helped me to share my views and given me a chance to pen down my thoughts, feelings, ideas and etc.

This blog was created on June 2007 and its nearing 3 years this June. I am pleased and happy to have my own space and a lovable blog. Though, I've been on and off from my blog for the past couple of months, I guess I'm ready to be back with a bang with regular updates and more interesting posts.

Its absolute fun reading the past and with this in my mind, I will make it a must to write more post in future.

Life is beautiful in many ways.........

noreply@blogger.com (whAt A LiFe) — Sat, 13 Feb 2010 02:50:00 +0000

I light a candle every night

Sending wishes to my angels above

To keep him safe, the man I love

Watch over him and show your light

Let him know

As I close my eyes to sleep

I am in his arms as I dream

I breathe his love, it is my air, my element, my world.

I know no other ambiance and I have no other dreams.

How rich my world is, how beautiful,

I'm alive within his love,

I just wanna tell him 'I love You' with all my heart.

Happy Valentine's day darling

Year 2009

noreply@blogger.com (whAt A LiFe) — Thu, 31 Dec 2009 06:34:00 +0000

Today is the last day of year 2009. Many things happened during this period of time. I've gone through many types of emotions, happy, sad, temperamental, stressed up, frustrations, fear, excitements, shocked, surprised and the list can just go on and on. What's life without any spice, isn't it. Good or bad, I've successfully struggled up from all the above and in fact I've learned a lot. I've improvised myself to be more stronger, being less sensitive, matured, logical mindset and sharpen my decision-making.

I must thank my hubby for this coz he is the one who listens to my ramblings and made me understand the facts. After which, i sit back alone and realised I've been so weak and vulnerable. These 365 days have covered many chapters and its like a stepping stone for me.

Right now, I'm in a joyous mood to welcome 2010 with full of hopes, happiness and awaiting pleasant surprises. I just wish it would be a splendid year for me. And i hope it would be the same to everyone. Here's wishing all my blogger & facebook friends,

Happy New Year

My Weekend Programs

noreply@blogger.com (whAt A LiFe) — Sat, 07 Nov 2009 03:40:00 +0000

Wow, what a bright sunny day today! I feel very lively and excited about our weekend programs. If you have read my previous post, I was quite depressed with someone who did not value or treasure a friendship. Followed with deepavali celebrations and the open houses that I had to attend kept me occupied and free from all those crabs. I was having fun especially during the 2nd day of deepavali. I invited some of my relatives and my neighbours. My relatives stayed over that night, chit-chatting till the wee hours and I think the ladies slept at about 3.30am. Only to know the next day, the guys did not sleep at all. They had so much of fun that they kept laughing about it the next day even while having breakfast and we were like, what the hell happen to these people. Crazy monkeys.... Lolz.....

After all the enjoyment week, I fell sick, down with flu, fever and cough. Don't worry, i did double checked with the doctor, i wasn't attacked by the H1N1 virus. I just recovered and feeling good now.

My hubby and I will be attending a children's concert in the afternoon. It's actually a Kindergarten graduation concert. I will be helping out my friend to make-up and dress the kiddos for their individual programs. I'm gonna be a teacher for a day managing the kids, hopefully they don't give me heart pains. Hahaha.... Followed by 'ikan bakar' dinner at Tepian Tebrau with my friend and her hubby.

Tomorrow will be a shopping day with my hubby lah, of course..... my finance director. Any maybe, going to the Home Fair at Persada. Looking forward to all these programs, so I'm going off from work now with a big smile. Enjoy your weekend, bloggers.

Deeply Hurt!!

noreply@blogger.com (whAt A LiFe) — Mon, 26 Oct 2009 03:03:00 +0000

Negative people do not find solutions and they enlarge problems. They prefer lamentation, gossips and pessimism. It is better to light a match than to regret the darkness. It hurts deeply when you find out that there is someone who is waiting to shatter the true friendship. I just want to reveal one thing, we are what we think. The negative thoughts only generates negative energy which will ruin everything. So do good and think good for it will only bring good to you.

Updates

noreply@blogger.com (whAt A LiFe) — Mon, 12 Oct 2009 15:26:00 +0000

noreply@blogger.com (whAt A LiFe) — Fri, 18 Sep 2009 07:41:00 +0000

It is going to be a great weekend. I am in a shopping mood and wants to pamper myself... hehehe. I really need some space and time for myself after such a long time. Anxiously waiting the hours, in fact. Lolz........ So, will be taking a short break ya.

Wishing all muslim friends Happy Hari Raya Aidilfitri.

Newest Icon of S'pore - Giant Observation Wheel

noreply@blogger.com (whAt A LiFe) — Fri, 21 Aug 2009 04:37:00 +0000

Couple of weeks ago, I had a chance to experience the mini flight ride of the Singapore Flyer. Standing at 165 metres, equivalent to a 42-storey building, The S'pore Flyer is a new tourist attraction at Marina Bay. Built at a cost of $180 million, its the newest icon, bagging the Best Views if Singapore award from S'pore Tartler and also Best New Tourist Attraction award from ASEAN Tourism Association.

This unique observation wheel lets us enjoy breathtaking views of S'pore and also glimpses of Malaysia & Indonesia. It was a great experience for me and my hubby. We enjoyed the ride at night with spectacular view of the hotbeds surrounding it.

Each capsule is UV protected for optimum comfort and safety and it weighs 16 tons, conveniently accomodating 28 people. You can also reserve an entire capsule for special occassions and corporate events. It would be the best dining experience one could ever have. Another interesting fact is that it took more than 1 million manhours to put the S'pore Flyer together. The tickets are priced at $29.50 for adults and $20.65 for child. It's a 30-minute ride not to be missed and its worth the ride.

Sree Gokul Krishnan

We had a small prayer at home last thursday in conjucntion with Gokula krishnan day. We invited just a few neighbours and my bro's family. My sis-in-law made the effort to dress my nephew like Krishna, that was so sweet of her. Lakshman was so cute in the outfit. He was the centre of attraction among the other kids, distributing the sweets to all which he brought.

The world is very sad on hearing his demise. Michael Jackson will be deeply missed. He was one of the greatest entertainers ever and he lives forever in the hearts of all his fans. Tears roll down my cheeks when I see his video clips in TV yesterday. May he rest in peace.

The father "Bubu" has been temporarily confined to allow the mother and child to settle in. Once all is okay the male will be released back next week. So visit the S'pore Zoo now to see this cute addition.

Elegant Tulips

noreply@blogger.com (whAt A LiFe) — Fri, 05 Jun 2009 03:55:00 +0000

I had a beautiful dream last night which I keep recalling even until now. The scenic view of a bungalow with an awesome garden. There were lots and lots of tulips blooming everywhere in the garden. I was right there admiring each and everyone of them. Thus, i was curious to know more about this beauty, I did a research on it and I came to know some interesting facts.

Tulips make up the genus Tulipa and are among the most popular of all garden flowers. Originally from Persia and Turkey, tulips were brought to Europe in the 16th century. The name tulip is the Latinized version of the Persian word “dulband” (turban), so called because of the flower’s resemblance to a turban.

Tulips blossom in early to late spring, depending on the climate in which they are planted. Cut tulips are primarily enjoyed during the same season, although they are now commercially grown to be available as a cut flower all year long. Tulips continue to bloom annually for a few years but eventually degenerate. It is a common practice to lift the bulb (remove form the soil) after the flowers have dropped and the foliage has yellowed, and store them in a cool dry place until autumn replanting time.

Different tulip colors carry distinct meanings:-
yellow - cheerful thoughts,
white - conveying forgiveness
purple - royalty
red - a Turkish legend may be responsible for the red tulip’s symbolism. “perfect love”

The story goes that a prince named Farhad was love struck by a maiden named Shirin. When Farhad learned that Shirin had been killed, he was so overcome with grief that he killed himself – riding his horse over the edge of a cliff. It’s said that a scarlet tulip sprang up from each droplet of his blood, giving the red tulip the meaning “ perfect love”.

With the power to rival roses in their red variety and the sweet charm to express simple joy when yellow, it’s no wonder that in addition to all its other symbolism, in the language of flowers, a tulip bouquet represents elegance and grace.
