Sex and The City-The Movie



Decided to go to and rent DVDs to watch today. I ended up buying the ex rental DVDs. In fact, there are no scratches and much much cheaper. I bought 2 shows. Sex and the City and Indiana Jone and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull. They are in perfect condition like a brand new DVD. So why would you want to buy it brand new for more when u can get it for half the price?

So after watching SATC it is great to knwo that Carrie and Mr Big finally Tie the knot after 10 years. Although it is just a show, it is still good that it is a happy ending for everyone in the show.

SATC states some facts about life. Being in a relationship or marraige, you will not necessarily be happy every second of your life but you will still be happy but there will be unhappiness still which is part of it. Which I agree.

Sometimes, I think I am a bit of both of Carrie and Charlotte. My dear girlfriends which character do you think matches you?

Towards the last part Mr Big said something really touching.
Ever Thine, Ever Yours, Ever Ours.( Hope i remember it correctly)

I wonder when will i meet my own version of Mr Big but minus away taking 10 years to get married to the person after knowing him and the whole on and off relationship in that 10 years.

Is it too much to ask for? i just wonder.

梦想天空

孙燕姿有一首歌:梦想天空。我觉得是一首好歌。其实是一首英文歌叫做:Blame it on the weatherman。不过我觉得梦想天空的歌词写得 not bad。
Below is the lyric of the song:

一天有多长 (how long is a day)
是不是无所谓混着过 (does it matter how it passes by)
像大人的世界ho~ (like the world ofthe adults)
我渴望不同的时空孤单也洒脱 (i yearn for a different space even alone is fine)
你会懂我离开的理由 (you will understand why I left)
在年轻的时候 (when you are young)
是否能跟着希望向前走 (if you can ever follow your hopes and move along)
世界太纷乱 (the world is very complicated)
而我在追求自己的战场 (and I am pursuing my own war)
生命的极限勇敢的意义 (life's limit and the meaning of bravery)
我不想太多努力去突破迎着风就想飞~~ (I do not want too much effort to breathrough the wind and just fly away)
梦想天空如此辽阔 (dream sky is just so big)
for ragnarok #
或许太天真相信新世界会有一天出现 (maybe being too naive that the new world will one day appear)
经过了考验曾沮丧可哭泣 (going through obstacles,disappointments, you can cry)
最真的笑容才能看见梦想天空如此辽阔 (the real smile is only when you can see Dream Sky is so big)
for ragnarok
梦想升空心也自由 (dreams lifted up into the air and the heart is free too)
for ragnarok
梦想天空没有界限... (the dream sky has no border)



It so reminds me of how life would be like if i really just pack and travel all over the world. The sky is always the limit. But the world has no borders which i always believe. The world is so big and yet She can be really small at times.

To see the world is my biggest dream but I wonder how far and how much will I be able to see in this lifetime? maybe it will take more than a llifetime?

Will do what i can to see the world. The world is a better place if you see it from another perspective or another angle. Taking pictures every now and then to capture what I see is always great to look back.

Always hoping for Utopia!!:)

Ps: Meaning of Ragnarok - refers to a series of major events, including a great battle foretold to ultimately result in the death of a number of major figures (including the gods Odin, Thor, Freyr, Heimdall, and the jötunn Loki), the occurrence of various natural disasters, and the subsequent submersion of the world in water. Afterwards, the world resurfaces anew and fertile, the surviving gods meet, and the world is repopulated by two human survivors. (this meaning is extracted from wikipedia.)

Saturday night out

Yesterday had dinner with my aunt,uncle,grandma and auntie d. We had vietnamese food which was very good. It is located not very far from Farmer Jack supermarket. We had vietnamese fried rice,claypot seafood,beef soup noodles,chicken soup noodles, vietnamese spring rolls.

After the filling dinner we decided to go to Northbridge for coffee. Upon arriving, to our horror there were lots of people and we could not find a place to park.

We then decided to go to beaufort st and luckily we manage to find a parking space and we had very nice cakes and coffee there. We had tiramisu and a berry cheesecake.Both are light and very addictive. I had mocha which was very much well done,Frankly so far the coffee here in Perth has been nice. Auntie D gave us the treat and I want to thank her again for the lovely dinner and dessert.Thank you Auntie D.It was a very nice evening that we had.

Friday Night out to the CITY


I was out with T on the Friday night after work. It was actually my first time that I am going to the city at night in Perth. I know this must sound very odd but seriously i was looking forward to it that day. It was a wet evening though as it was raining. We decided to go to David Jones first as T needs to check out some foundation for her face. After trying Giorgio Armani and Bobby Brown she has decided on Giorgio armani which i recommended her and after trying she really like it. She bought it.The sales person was very professional and it turns out she is also a make up artist. Very rare we find westerners who are able to advise and do asian makeup and she is an exception. In fact she was very good!!:) I have decided that if I need to do a make up for a special occassion I shall go lok for her to do mine. That day both T and myself looked really good as we had tried on the cosmetic of Giorgio armani. The sales person even gave us soem make up tips and a book that we can get online in teaching you on make up that make u look good!

We then headed off to Target as weather was still crap so got to go to indoor places.I bought socks and undergarments. And there wsa 20% off which was wonderful. For the first time i bought organic undergarments and socks which was on offer. In Signapore Organic clothings are going to cost a lot. So I thought why not i buy it to try. Frankly it is quite comfortable plus it is cheap.

We headed off to Yoshiya a Japanese Resturant for our dinner as it was time for dinner and we decided not to walk anymroe due to the weather and fill our stomach instead. The food was surprisingly good! We ordered tempura prawns and vegetables,stired fried prawns and sushi rolls and had green tea.The sushi was very well done.The rice was in well intact.Good quality food. I love jap food so this is pretty good.

That night we ended up at T's husband office for awhile as she had to pick him up before she can send me home. We ended up at the office building for Bankwest!! on the right you will see the managers of the various department of Bankwest. T 's husband picture is there can you spot him? He is the only asian there. He is on the bottom right hand corner. haha!!i told him this is going to appear on my blog and it did!:)
