Baby video

I know it's mean, but i couldn't stop laughing when I saw this!

Hort Park

It was so hot! We should have realised it when everyone seemed to be leaving when we arrived at 10am. But it was fun seeing the kiddos together. We really should do this more often!

Online Japan shopping

Want to buy stuff from a Japan website but can't understand the language?
Want to buy stuff from a Japan website but they don't accept International credit cards?

Found a website that solves both problems. This website charges a little more for each product, but is in English and accepts international credit cards and paypal. Very convenient.

You can even request for them to help you search for a product if it's not available on their website :)

Yeah! Shopping time!

Adam Lambert (American Idol)

I was so captivated by this song, i think it was the first time i actually went to "rewind" to watch the performance again.

From the first top 13 performance, i told my hubby that I think he would win the competition.... Let's see ya...

Book - The Notebook by Nicholas Sparks

A truly beautiful love story. It was so easy to read and so captivating, I couldn't put it down.

It was all the more poignant for me because my granny and great grandfather both suffered from Alzeimers... so it may run in my family's genes too! It is scary to think that we may one day forget everything we have ever been through. But I guess it is even more heart wrenching for the love ones, who may not be recognised by the patient anymore. How many people will have the strength and the courage of Noah to continue to try, day by day, to help the love of his life remember again?

Bye Bye Butterfly

Although we have known since last October that we will be acquired by BASF, it was still really sad when the deal closed last Friday and we are now forced to face reality. There will be no more Ciba. There will be no more butterfly.

All we can do is to take some pics for memories sake, and keep the spirit of Ciba in our heart always.... Ciba has been a great company to work for.... great environment and even more fantastic colleagues. And of cos, this was where my hubby and i met too!!!

Even as we all may have to part ways sometime during this year, i believe i will always have fond memories of the good times we had together in Ciba!

Guilty pleasures

We were deciding for a long time whether to get a PSP or a Wii...

Then we decided to get a PSP when a friend offered to sell hers to us at a lower price.

So we caved in.

Just barely 3 months later, we caved in again and bought the Wii and Wii Fit!! It was just too good a deal to miss. A friend's mum, who hardly used the set, sold it to us at a much reduced price too! And my friend decided to sell me her Wii Fit too!!

The only consolation is that the Wii Fit at least gets us moving... which is not bad since we are badly in need of exercise... Yes, i know, excuses excuses right?
