可爱的妹妹

我觉得小朋友最可爱就在这一两岁的时候，因为这个阶段宝宝刚学会交流；

言听计从，咿咿呀呀，从讲话到唱歌跳舞，每样动作包含了各种萌的因素。

而且宝宝活跃得来又逃不出妈妈的掌心，所以妈妈出门时都可以特别放心。

A wallow in nostalgia

Everyone ages eventually, inevitably, and unfortunately.

8 years ago, I was jolly young as a spring chicken.
I had the unbeatable energy that carried me through to the dawn.

Then suddenly, my life took a big turn. 
My energy level sunk to zero very rapidly. 
In fact, some nights I barely last past 9pm.

This is my energy roller-coaster these days.
For better or worse, everyone has to come to accept his ageing fate.

As I become older, I have also become more mesmerised by all the jolly good pictures taken when I was a bit younger.
They often made me laugh out loud.

My silly cousin, Rocan & I sneaked into an orchard in Renmark - April 2007

Sin Hui, me, Julie & Pei Wen were pointing at some random sky objects in Kangaroo Island - November 2007

Paint-balling with Vivian & Julie at somewhere in South Australia - Sometime in 2007

Camping with my housemates, XX (cannot recall who she was), Josie & Phuong in 1770 - sometime in 2008

After bidding fond farewell to my dear old classmates, housemates & friends, I then embarked on a "solo" journey searching for a better quality lifestyle. 

That was when my true femininity began to show as well.

Two years after March 2013, this was how I look like:

August 2015

Once I hit 30s, my physical constraint became more apparent.

My body might be playing tricks on me, but I still try to keep my mind as active as I can. Mind over body, as they say. 

I read a lot more than before. I travel a lot more than before.

My old man often says to me:

The more you travel, the broader your mind.

He tried to send all his children to overseas for this reason.

A life is made out of a great number of small incidents and a small number of great ones. 

Big or small, I wish to share more with you in the coming posts.
