我家的宝贝

这是我家的宝贝。
人见人爱。更是对付小孩的最佳“工具”。My children ambassador。小孩一见了它，都抵挡不了的它魔力。图里的小女孩是我老友的女儿而躺着的是我宝贝Mr Ernie。我的开心果。我不爱soft toy, 可是它是我唯一的弱点。哈哈~~

Bring your own bag - Edward Norton

Bring your own bag. Stop using plastic bag.

When I was in Lijiang, I was really surprised that they do not use plastic bag. They charged you for every paper bag that you used. So when I got back to Singapore, I have collected more than 4-5 paper bags of every sizes , coz I kept on forgetting to bring my own shopping bags. hahaha~~

That was way before our "Bring your own bag Wednesday". In 2006. We really should not be complaining about the 10 cents that are charged.

And speaking of playing a part in saving the environment, no one beat Taiwan and Japan. When I was in Taiwan, my Taiwanese friend picked up the pet bottles that we have just threw away , washed it and put it into a separate trash bag so that the collector can recycle them later. We were so embarrassed. =P

Seriously, it is really time for us to be more aware of our environment. Ha, and me included. I wont lie, sometimes I forget to bring my own bag for grocery shopping too. =P Nowadays, I keep a small foldable bag in my bag so that I can use it any time.

Its an conscious effort. =)

Opera ghost in G minor

Adagio in G minor

For friends that have knew me a long while, would know that I am totally crazy about [ The phantom of the opera ] and "idolize" the Phantom. But strangely, my favorite phantom was neither Boardway version non the latest movie one.

It was an old 1989 movie production. An adapted interpretation of the Boardway classic. The OST was new too. The phantom was acted by Robert Englund. He made his fame by playing Freddy in [A Nightmare On Elm Street] . The very famous horror series. Think that would also made me a freak since I fall in love with his version of the Opera ghost. haha

I have been looking for that version for long time. It neither on YouTube non in any video stores. Today out of the blue , I decided to type Robert Englund into YouTube search. And some angels have finally uploaded some short clips. haha....

Here is one of the clip that featured the song that I loved. The music score was by Misha Segal.


Gosh..... just read in one of the YouTube comment , the song was inspired by " Adagio in G minor". The beautiful melody that has " haunted" me for years has finally got a name.

Black-naped Orioles

Black-naped Orioles A small corner of an illustration done for a stamp proposal, a long time ago. The theme was " Bird found in Singapore". Had a hell of time drawing those feathers on the wing . ha

I had a really close encounter with the yellow Black-naped Oriole today. It flown away before I could take a pix of it. =) This was the first time I have seen it so up close. Beautiful bright bird, the size of a Myna. They are really hard to be missed.

There are a pair of "resident" Oriole at my neighbourhood. It always a joy to see them flying from tree to tree. But as always, they are too fast and too far to be captured on cam.

青葱岁月

最近常常在ｆｍ１００３听到新谣，应该是[天冷就会来]舞台剧的效应。这可乐了我的同事，她超喜欢新谣的。那是她青葱岁月里听的歌。饱含了她成长的记忆。我也爱听，特喜欢那首[水的话]。新谣的全胜时期我还小，记得我小三的时候，李季美还来过我的学校拍音乐专辑。。。。。。。是在星星星播的吗？？？

而代表我青葱岁月的歌呢？可能自己听歌的ｇｅｎｒｅ太广。。。。（什么我都听，从classical到hard metal)，所以一直想不出。不过今天我终于找到了。那是草蜢的［限时专送ABC］。哈哈～～～今天在ｆｍ１００３听到，几兴奋的。好久没有听到了。记忆突然回到了很久很久以前。＝）还有那首[半点心]，难忘。特地上网把他们google了来。

ps : 看了[天冷]了没？一定要买票看。非常好看，曲目也非常好。不过，我是前年（还是去年看的）=P

这整子，常留连在两个人部落格里。他们都养了两只超可爱的猫。有猫真好。两位格主都是幸福的猫奴。从文章里，看得出来。。。。。。。好想念meow me呀。很想念逗它玩的时光。

陪我看雨。

觉得这只home made video很适何烟和咖啡。

杀人鲸

aka Killer whale

我要飛上青天 上青天
我要飛上青天 上青天
我上七重天 逍遙自在像神仙
不是夢話連篇 是信念
我要飛上青天
飛上青天

今年，象云朵般
多变

不过，改变
何尝不是件好事

ps :　为什么杀人鲸叫杀人鲸？它杀了人吗？

With Love

Today, I accompanied my cousin to visit Meow me at her final resting place. Meow Me was mass cremated in Mount Pleasant Hospital and housed in a nice waist height brick structure. The surface was a green planter and its acted like a small memorial place for the pets' owner too. It was sweet.


My cousin bought her a new mouse toy. It was one of her favorite. We also decided to bought her 发糕。Cousin caught her trying to eat it a few times. Always the top 4 corners. She was forever trying to taste whatever we are eating.


She is not Meow Me but another cat by the name of Mi Mi. Her pix and notes written by her owner caught our attention. So much love.

Dear J ，

昨天，终于把 SATC 第六季 看完了。
难以想象，我竟然停了六个月。

记得第十七集的内容吗？
Samantha 得了癌症。

想起星期四
在你的部落格里的对话。

如果有一天恶梦成真，
你会怎么办？

一定
一定要告诉我们。

要象Samantha一样
也要象她一样勇敢。

那条路，一个人
好辛苦。

不要象阿桑
我也不想, 象Mr Z
最后才知道
我会生气的。

记住了。=）

当然
事事是难料的。

Ps : On a lighter note, I really liked that Mr Russian. So filled of old school charm. =)

Think family

" So to my beautiful children , I hope one day......you too find yourself life partners, who are as beautifully imperfect, as your father was to me."

Saw the new public awareness campaign of National Family Council on channel five. I was really impressed by the 3 mins long tv campaign. Someone have put time and soul into creating this ad. Well worth a round of applause.

Especially love the part where the wife joked about the deceased snoring. Toward the end of the decease life, the snoring became an indicator that he was still alive. How familiar was that. I remembered a time when I was one of the caretaker to my granny. Towards the last few day, it was the same. Every little breath she took, was an indicator.

I love the " lightheartedness" the director has set for the advert. Its not about the mourning for the decease. It is about the celebration of one life. No crying, all smile. =)

Beautifully imperfect........
How well said, cause we are all imperfect in one way or another but there will be someone out there that will appreciate and fully embraced that imperfectness. Its beautiful.

看了很多电影

某天，在一个家庭聚会上。堂妹和我的对话。

她知道我爱看电影。。。

堂妹 ：“我最近看了很多电影，其中一部Gran Torino 意料之外的好看。”

我　：“哦!? 看了很多电影？跟谁看呀？男的？哈哈 （有意调侃）

堂妹红了脸：“没有啦，早知道不和你说电影了。”

我　：“哈哈，你不是因为 “看电影” 穿帮的，是你那个“很多”把你给出卖了？”

我想，要在我们的弹丸小国里找约会地方，那可是要考你创意的。于是乎，看电影再吃吃饭便成了最方便的途径。由其是刚刚开始萌芽的阶段。=)

那时候，总可以把戏院里的戏通通看完 ( 印度的,马来的和长江戏院的除外)。。。。戏通通给你看完之后，你就变成你朋友眼中的合格影评人了。哈

所以"看了很多电影”的公式如下：
Casual dating 看电影 + 陪好友看电影 + 和朋友看电影 = 看了很多电影

有过那样的岁月，虽然人事已非。我不爱一个人看电影，虽然偶尔还是会。觉得好像少了点什么。。。。。偶尔还是会想起和我一起看戏的人们。因为某部戏，记得某个对话。某段时间。某段美好的记忆。

今晚想起了，Space cowboys>>midnight show >>Fly me to the moon >> Twilight >>你.

看图说故事

最近为了新的设计方案，找有关于“火”的甲骨文字形。 哈～~这个甲骨文真是越看越有趣呀。 我草草的，依样画葫芦了几个。

1.育 [ 大人带小孩。育儿。很温馨。]　2.母［　挺直接的　］　3.火［　臭脸？］ 4.乳［　在妈妈怀里的小孩　］　5.齿［　bo gai ?　］ 6.车［　轮子怎么长在上面呀？　］ 7.乐［　我喜欢的一个字 ］ 8.血［　匪夷所思。。。　］ 9.丹［ 阿丹，刚好看到。写给你看。～～哈 ］　10.心［ 我喜欢这个没有合上的心。本来心就是让血液流通的器官呀 ］　11.昏［ 是黄昏，还是昏倒？ ］　12.饮［ 很可爱，好像在电头发。哈哈哈～ ］

浓缩的无糖三月天

忘了什么时候开始
我爱上了无糖黑咖啡。

没有多余的添加物
咖啡的浓郁 香醇
更加明显 突出。

有时也加奶精
多一些不同层次感。

觉得 无糖黑咖啡 像人生
精彩 香醇 但是 苦涩

精彩 因为不同的产地
味道都不一样

*

刚过去的三月天
象杯 Double espresso

欢喜悲伤 聚散离合 生老病死
样样齐 五味杂成

短短 31 天
浓缩了一年的情绪

快乐
变成了奶精
大配角一个

*

三月的尾声，
四月的开头
是在颂经中度过的

在万礼 看见了天梯
人生 最后的闭幕礼

我讨厌
那最后3 分钟的旅程

等待 闭幕
无形的把送葬人的痛苦
推到了极点。。。。

闭幕 没了
化成灰烬

*

四月天
给我杯清水， 好吗？

只是无聊- If only

If only .....
1. 我没那么冲动
2. I didnt wear this pair of shoe
3. the birds outside can stop chirping
4. 我长的在丑一点
5. 我们不用长大
6. happy moments can last just a moment longer
7. 你不要那么听话
8. 我在冲动一点
9. $$ fall from the sky
10. if only, if only.

我只是无聊. 不爱把If only挂在心里的我, 偶而还是不小心让它乘虚而入。没有a,不会有b,也就不会有c, 更不会有d............不了哦？没事儿。只是说给自己听，我了就好。
