Happy Like a Spider ...

i rem my college frens always saying 'happy like spider' ...

and so ... this is the happy face spider ...

haha ... cute rite ...

(This tiny spider, which measures just a few millimeters across, has developed bizarre markings which look just like a smiling face. The so-called happy-face spider, which is harmless to humans, has evolved to confuse predators, scientists think. The rare species is found in rain-forests of Hawaii.

not that i am happy like spider ... with the resounding cough ... how to be that happy ..
with the scraping of Princess Piglet ... how to be that happy ...
with ... alot of other things ... how to be that happy ...
i suppose it is always very easy to be cranky and make people laugh ...
but ... how to be really that happy within oneself?

hate bring sick ... also emo ... sianz ... shall do some marking and clear some fb photo albums ...
:)
have a good long weekend...

Channel 8 always brings tears..

watching this prog that started @ 2230 ...

1. this couple who is married for 30 years...

2. this uncle who is takin care of an older auntie, like as though she is his mother ...

both brought tears to my eyes ...

hate such shows ... yet ... yes ... i love these realities ... better than anything ...

and being sick ... makes me feel even weaker ...

i miss ah mah ...

and suddenly, i miss ah gong too ...

女人 - 蔡美仪

女人

我知道温柔是你的灵魂

一旦相信了缘分就会奋不顾身

可以单纯去成全别人

女人

我知道你心里有一扇门

藏着不被了解的伤痕

把爱 放飞出风筝

却把线交给了别人

有时侯

爱需要冒险精神聚或分

都是一种平衡与其苦苦的撑 不如让自己安稳

聆听 自己的脚步声

学会对自己心疼

别计较谁爱谁比较深

幸福

是每个人该有的权利

如果爱是种责任

那么请先对自己坦诚

总会有个人 能陪你 到永恒

happened to see this on sl's fb ...

and i find it so true ...

heading out to 木船民歌餐厅to support meixian's singing ...

good way to end monday nite!

Presenting ...

wakey @ noon ... slacked abit ... before heading out to meet jk ... had lunch @ sun with moon ... and the first joke of the day, brought to me by jk ... he only order fr one side of the menu ... it is a SIMPLE menu - two sided ... and yet ... for no reason ... or unexplainable reason ... jk tot there is ONLY ONE SIDE ... and simply ordered fr there ... until i enlightened him to the other side of the menu! too bad ... order was processed, cannot change!

watched F13 @ shaw lido instead of the usual tm ... nice change watching it in a big cinema (in fact ... joke one shd be - we decided to watch it @ shaw bcos of free tickets - but ... jk nv bring!!!! ) anyway, nvm la, nice change ...

one movie that i bought two drinks for myself - teh tarik and green tea latte ... didnt realise that there is a starbucks @ lido! scary classic horror flick ... most of the time, i used my jacket to cover my eyes! after the show ... shopped abit @ isetan supermkt to get my supplies of jappy snacks! yummy! though i cannot eat now ... till the cough is gone! and off to ecp oldtown for dinner ... second / third joke there!

not very clear with this order chit pic ... BUT ... there are some numbers with each order ...

example:

toast single 300

toast double 301

peanut butter toast single 302

peanut butter toast double 303

and jk can imagine them to be the price!!!!!!!!

how can a double toast be simply 1 cents more than a single toast?!

after typing out, i dun find it that funny ...

but there and then it happened, i was laughing so damn loud,

that my resounding cough almost got worse!

and i realised i ate chicken @ oldtown :(

shall keep chicken off my menu for the entire week,

if not my resounding cough will be here :(

and now... i shall present to you

THE JOKER!

Monday's lunch!

while watching les choristes, was flipping thru the cookbook also ... shall cook this on Monday! thinking of it makes me hungry ... tink cos i merely had a half a bowl of porridge just now ... shall just take med and sleep later!

On 15 January 1949, the former music teacher Clément Mathieu arrives in "Fond de l' Etang" ("Bottom of the Well"), a boarding school for orphans and problematic boys, to work as an inspector. The place is administrated with iron fist by the cruel director Rachin, and most of the boys have severe punishments for their faults. Clément decides to teach the boys to sing in a choir in their spare time, and identify the musical potential of the rebel Pierre Morhange, the son of a beautiful single mother for whom he feels a crush. He also has a special feeling for the young Pépinot, a boy that expects the visit of his father every Saturday near the gate, but indeed lost his parents in the war. With his methods, Clément changes the lives of the boys, of the other employees and his own
