12 Lotus

Watched 12 Lotus with my parents today..

From critics & friends i heard that its not a nice show,but i still went as my parents love this type of Singapore movies..After watching it, i feel that its not as bad lah..maybe I am of Hokkien dialect and I am able to better understand the songs they sing so from there i feel that its rather good..although the song 12 lotus have nothing to do with the story they are potraying.

But mum interpret it to me that actually the director/producer of the movie is trying to say that the female lead has led a poor life as the song and not that the song is interpreting the story of the movie..Well,sounds reasonable though..

Some people may think that singing & listening to Hokkien songs are very "low class"..But Hokkien songs are just like any other dialect songs e.g Cantonese songs..If people could proudly sing Cantonese songs in KTV, why cant they project the same thinking on Hokkien songs?

In KTV, I always like to sing Hokkien songs but due to my limitations of Hokkien songs I always stick to the few. I think that Hokkien songs are very straight to the point and close to my heart, so i am able to inject more feelings into it.heehee..

All thanks to Royston Tan, We are able to enjoy Hokkien Musical Show..Haha..

3 cheers to Royston !

家后~(江蕙)

有一日咱若老 找无人将咱孝顺
我会陪你坐硬椅条
听你讲少年的时候 你有多贤
吃好吃坏无计较 怨天怨地也不会
你的手　我会将你牵牢牢
因为我是你的妻子

有一日咱若老 有媳妇子儿孝顺
你若无聊 拿咱的相片
看从前结婚的时候 你多英俊
穿好穿坏不计较 怪东怪西也不会
你的心　我会永远记牢牢
因为我是你的妻子

我将青春嫁给你家　
我从少年就随你随到老
人情世事也已经看透透
有啥人比你更重要

我的一生献给你家
才知幸福是吵吵闹闹
等待回去的时候若到
我会让你先走　

因为我会不舍 放你为我眼泪流
你要让我先走
因为我会不舍
看你为我眼泪流

The 1st time I heard this song is from my parents when i am young,
The 2nd time I heard this song, i began to understand the meaning of it..
The 3rd time I hear this song again, I m lovin it!

Happy 3rd Anniversary

Actually we wanted to go Gold Class for our 3rd year Anniversary but we can't managed to get the tickets on Wednesday. So we went on Thursday.

Its our 2nd time to Gold Class..The 1st time is 3 yrs ago where its also mark the start of our relationship. But this time round, the tickets & popcorn combo are free! Proudly sponsored by one of my friend.Thank You! You know who you are..

We watched "The Mummy 3". Its being commented by friends & critics that its not a very nice show but to me its ok..Maybe because i enjoyed the seat & blanket more than the show! Haha..
We bought a $9.40 ( including 10% service charge & GST) Evian Palace water as well while in the show as I saw it and knowing me rather well, Dear agree to buy for me..But i know he is not very willing lor cos to him its $9.40 for a 750ml of plain water! But to me, I like beautiful things thats why i want it!

Watching show in Gold Class is really enjoying but expensive! $25 for a ticket on weekday and $30 for weekend! As my priority now is different so I will not spend this big amt of $$, luckily its free so that we can also revive the experience once again!

Happy 3rd Year Anniversary to us!

Lunch For Deborah

One of my colleague Deborah is going for maternity leave, therefore the bosses decided to throw a lunch for her at Singapore's very first microbrewery Paulaner Brahaus @ Millenia Walk.

The Whole HR department around 20 odd of us went excluding the bosses whom are stuck in Houston for the Harmonization meeting.

Bee Lan & Me

Moh,Mak & Me

Georges Barreau - One of our most dashing & charismatic Manager in our dept.

Lunch is normal as there are choices of set meals to choose from but i make the wrong choice - Chicken with rosti..its chicken breast meat! I hate breast meat!

Thats why dear always let me have the thigh meat and he will eat the breast meat if we are having chicken rice!

Anyway its National Day Today! But its raining cats and dogs outside, hope it will be fine by 5pm! Orelse the parade will be affected. But it doesnt affect me as I dont watch them..haha.

Typical Weekend

After 15 hours of mahjong I am exhausted..both hands are aching..Result of battle : No win No lose!But its a great way to pass my weekend..

Woke up at 1pm, brought my parents to Mouth Restaurant for a sumptuous lunch..Stomach full with dim sum & tea, E-fu mee,dessert & etc..After which headed home to bath my ROoney..and start to go online..

Treat my parents to Money No Enough 2 as well and now i think they should have reached the cinema..Its been a long time since they went to shows..hope they know where the cinema ticketing booth are! heehee..

Anthony has returned me the dvd that he has transfer from his viewcam..I am such a tech idiot that i dont even bother to learn..luckily he is willing to help! Thank You!

Dear is busy with his Wild Rice Productions show so for these 2 weekends he wont be accompanying me. But i hope he remember a date on the next week that are important to both of us!

Tomorrow is a start of a new week again..there are still tons of work awaiting me to be done.. But till now i have no complaints from my job just that at times the overwhelming incoming emails tend to stress me up!

I know I can SURVIVE!
