Weekends

Usually, weekends have been my resting time. The last 2 weekends, it was different. I attended 2 weddings - my secondary school friend, Jun Shen and poly friend, Yong Yik's.

Each wedding is like a mini reunion for all of us. We often chat about the old times and what we have been doing or are doing. All of us are busy with our lives - some are pretty successful in their work life, family life, etc.

Each reunion at different stage of life, there will definitely be a different type of topic. After graduation, it would be - Have u found a job? What do you work as now? After having worked in the society university for awhile, the next topic was - Have you found a boyfriend? (for those single) or When are you getting married and... Have you applied for BTO?

It is funny, isn't it? Well I supposed, that's life.

Yes, Yuan Chang is like a boss - thorn among the roses (US).
 


 
Oh yes and this is how i spent my Saturday! 3hours of jam to the nearby country - Malaysia, only to start the day weirdly without anything going right. But we ended up with a good meal, good company and of course, movie!

Home Revamp 2014

My house recently underwent a major makeover - no more wooden furnitures. We are into walnut colour and leather material these days. Dad and mum are very happy with the outcome and glad that after so long, we (my brothers and I) are finally able to help out with giving our house a fresh new look.

I have been wanting to revamp my room for the longest time, giving myself more storage space for all the "so not frequently used" things. In the month of April and May, I happily declare myself - broke! Spent a bomb on my tiny weeny room & parts of it on the house (well it may be cheap to others, but certainly took us awhile to save up), but im satisfied with the outcome. =D

During the revamp, I also counted the no. of years we have been using the furnitures. The oldest furnitures were almost 20 years old! My goodness. But one thing i have to say is.... we really did a good job in protecting the furnitures. They did not look that "old", just that some of it are falling apart.

The irony thing is.. when we discard the furnitures, we saw some people pushing our old furnitures back to their home.. Those which are old to us.. may actually be new to them, that makes us a little guilty. But on the other hand, doesn't this also reflect alot about our society and how we look at things? *some points to ponder*

I am finally able to place the magnets up and giving them some exposure, but this didnt last long. The magnets fell on my face last night. So sad! Tonight I have to find a new way to keep these magnets and see how to put them in place securely.. I dont want to wake up at 4am again in the midnight.... =.=
