This post is for you..

At the end of the day, I guessed you are still the one who understand me best. Under that front of mine, who am I really? Who I strive to be. What are my ultimate fears. What are my likes and dislikes. My evil side, my darkest secrets. You know it all.

You said, you are never alone but always lonely. Truth is, I feel that. But helpless about it. I always believe that you are strong enough. To overcome this crisis of yours. Or even better, bypass in your kind of smart way. Entering the new stage.

Anyway, I am feeling emo now. I wish I could dust it all, off my shoulders. And yell. Whatever. Screw it. Do whatever I want. But no, it is a selfish and irresponsible. Yet another mess up act of mine. Okay coming to end of 2014. Hope we home drive alllll the way!!!


No joking when I said it's the best Xmas pressie I received this year; not because it is my only pressie. You feel me, that all I need to say. I love you. Friends forever, like we were 18.


This is my fav...muackz.

This has been playing in my nano or mind for the past 2-3 weeks. My fav from their recent hits. Go watch Begin Again. Makes you love. and love music all together.

Dubai Observations

I love the old Dubai. Souks, pier and streets we got lost in. The gulls are entertaining. Yellow and I spent the entire afternoon, gull watching. You have the grumpy gull, the silly and sillier gulls, the sun bathing n showering gulls. This is my kind of chill.


For observations:
-bus stops are air-conditioned cubics.
-safe city? People leave bags and hand phones when shooting off to washroom.
-does rounding when you pay bills. Taxi, supermarts and restaurants..

I only paid once and got a rounding down. On all other occasions, we got rounded up!


I like this city, for its' vast differences in offering. Super riches, down to earth, rags and poor. India can't even match that. I wanna be back.

Maldives In Specific Style

You said. This is not Phuket. It is unrivaled luxury. It needs to be:
-to an island far away, by seaplane. Speedboat is a no no.
-have to go for water villa with private excess to reef. No beach villa.
-have to be an exclusive beach. Be expected to see no one.


My conclusion. The seaplane make sense. Far away equates to unspoiled . Water villa proved to be a good choice. As for the last point, to skinny dip. Cost is 1200usd vs 6500usd per night. I am better off spending on keeping myself clothed.

Conclusion. Vacation needs to be within your means so that you have no worries about keeping within budget. I love BKK for that. I love my own defined version of Maldives for that ;)

My First Seoul 。。。

Heard people raving about shopping in Seoul. But, I didn't buy any. Not to say that I am a hardcore shopper, but I am a shopper. I didn't like 明洞 at all. 东大门; knowing that shops opened till 3am. That amaze me.


Food wise, I never been a big fan of Korean food. Tried some of the streets, taste decent but full of carbo. On the good note, hotel great. Nanta is a buy, I always wanted to catch it but never on the right timing. Lastly, I am not saying no. Just that I like TKY more. Can't blame a gal for stating her preference, right?

Afterthought...

Food was never about food. It's about the companionship.

Last Paradise On Earth

That is the most frequently used description on !aldives. Mine is simple today. Started with a stroll by the beach.


These would be my prized finds. I housed them, talk to them n fed them. Wonder if I should bring them home. Btw, hermit crabs are really shrimpe liked, on close observation.


The rest of the day belongs to Donna Tart. Is the page turner of the year. W/o a doubt. I also did guard duty to keep an eye on Yellow.


The last proper vacation we had. Is Langkawi which was like 3 4years ago. Define as leisure travel, on same flight to fro. This is a proper travel. Trilogy: Seoul, Dubai and Maldives. I like sitting on long haul with people I loved. Up in the air, right mood is sweet romance.


When I am down, I would always look back on my happy posts. Remind myself of those days and it will cheer me a little. This would be one;)


And of course. We need to treat life, with more humor. Muackz, good night.

Time.

When they travelled at lighting speed, it is an indicator of how much you enjoyed it and will miss, missed and missing is. Happened in HK and here @ Maldives. It's different, but both awesome by my standard. Though dead beat, I feel a need to jot down this down..


All started after @ room service breakfast. Waking up, 他唱着； what a wonderful world.

Throughout the day, 他说：
-他看见 a school of white baits.
-there's this clam, which is as big as my head.
-the black and white box fish, is wayy bigger than Shanghai's.
-saw a shark during snorkeling. It's really like the movie. It moves fast!

他有点小怕。 马上游回来我。。

Single is swinging?

The thing about having the other half. You can wakiss up in the morning. You can give a hug to love. You can make love to love. Or you are the "knowing in the mind? Someone to wake up to and msg b4 sleep. Knowing that he cares.


I still in view, e"mind thing" plus the physical makes it perfect. That is the meaning of life.. Soak. Life. Is so shiok.

Dubai In Action...

Now that I am starting to eat. I love the Arabic food. To me, it is part Indian, part Mediterranean. Best of both world. Curries, spices, meat, seafood, olives oil and load vegetables.


As our Chinese friend describes, we need to shop in the largest shopping mall in the world; Dubai mall. This is worth it, now being the Sale season. Finally have a chance to shop at Bloomingdales.


It's a must to visit the tallest building in the world; Burj Khalifa. Checked.


The Burj Al Arab. The 7 stars hotel. Most expensive hotel in the world. Nice view of the Gulf and everything else. But, despite the restricted access, no outsiders allowed. The lobby and everywhere. Is full of people taking pictures. Plenty of Chinese tourists roaming around. Where's the exclusive?!! N the interior, see it for yourself..


More of what I really love in this trip.. Coming up.. Boarding for Maldives now. Muackz!

Some thots..

Understand why JE and J like Dubai. Food and shopping great, pollution non existence so far. Road and everywhere we been to, clean and proper. Having said that, Creek is happening today. City with two tales...


These been my staple in Dubai. It's really yummy. Blueberries n nuts so fresh and these 750g yoghurt cost approx 8sgd. I call this; discovering happiness in the present. I am good at this. You people should try too. How good can e lamb rice be, right...;)


Anyway, feeling better now and going back to feasting. Dubai, so far, I love you. Thanks you for the Eleven Paris tees. But would be better if they were on sale..

16 Dec SHA.

It's 6 degrees now. I used to think that the greatest invention of all time. Is aircon and washing machine came close. I can safely conclude now. It has to be heater. Tmd, 我很冷。


Anyway. I learnt. When you do it, show your class. I remind myself, do the right thing. Don't do it!!!!

This is so true...

People say; 忘却旧爱最好不过的方法，是投入下一段感情。 I found out that, same goes to friendship.

So. I am a simple gal. Spent most of my early years in Singapore. And looking at things now, I would probably be spending many years away from her. From young, school been a love hate relationship. I love it for giving me more than just companionship; cherished friendship. Hate e dryness and dull classes. All that, I think I did ok academically, considering the limited hours I put in. Although I doubt it rallies if I would have went all out. It's hard to tell you more, giving that I don't think I know myself well(yes and no, depends..) one for sure, I am obviously biased. Very biased, so it works very well for you;) I love my noodles; my fried bee hoon. Can take spicy, and prefer orginal, vanilla for my dairy. Welcome to my world.

Above, my most frequent route in SHA. Home to gym walk.

Yen weakness.. E last of it..

A habit(bad?) of mine. I like to fly solo for awhile. Regardless of who I am with.


That morning. I cycled off at 7am alone. Visited another museum, got lost for a bit.


Then down to my tradition. Postcard. First to myself. Then Singapore and US.


Met up with some kind souls. Offered me a snack. Took a rest while waiting 4..



Okay. I think I am a loner at heart. See you soon, Japan. Who is next?

Yen weakness...@ Omotesando Hills

I met up with C and we were just talking about it.. 你说的是表参道吗? Indeed it is. That's how the Taiwanese call it, now I know. It's not only high end fashion, don't be mistaken.


If you side track off the Main Street. You will be surprised by the tiny boutiques. And maybe some villa of casual street brands. Be amaze. I had fun browsing thro these hilly roads.


This is my fav shopping belt in TKY. Full stop.

Yen weakness continued..@ Teshima Museum

Took me around 45mins ride to reach this museum. You will know you are reaching when you see a turn. With the ocean right in front of you. Some rice terrace as well.


From what I read:
-it is work of Rei Naito
-idea is to act in harmony with the environment
-museum echo the shape of a water drop
-fusion of art, environment and architecture


Here, you are looking at the main site of the museum. Would assume people spend hours lying there, at peace. Taking your time to feel the air, h2o and light..


Could be silly to some. But treat to others. Individual preferences, no right or wrong. For me, I like how they manage to blend in these museums into the islands. Doesn't look out of place. And I heard, minimum damage is done to the forestry, villagers' daily lives.. I mean, these architecture really kick MY! arse.


Erm lastly, thanks to the buddy who spend ridiculous amount on admission fees.

Yen Weakness

Following this move, it makes senses to revisit TKY. Even sushi at Akashi SIN fails to impress me. Anyway this post is about the beloved Starbucks.


Not sure if it make senses to say, this is my fav Starbucks in TKY. As it is suppose to look similar to one another. Anyways. THIS IS MY FAV. At top level of Harajuku TKY Plaza. Btw, something different. I saw them serving Short Frapp. It's e size of coke in Mac size meal. Aha!


There's a Starbucks Reserve counter at this branch. The premium blends of Starbucks. Talks say there will be a first Starbucks Reserve Bar in US Dec 2014. I can imagine it is like the Niketown meets Apple. Adjacent to Starbucks kinda of concept.


As PQ is busily typing away and working remotely at TKY Starbucks, I was counching, enjoying the weather and listening to e crows?.. I will be back!

This moment..

On my return flight, I am in the middle of a movie. Without turbulence, the captain switched on his PA system and here are his exact words:

"Sorry if you are in a middle of a track or movie. Passengers on the right hand side. You will see a lovely orange moon above you."

It is beautiful. It is symbolic. A note for my SIN trip; things won't always turn out the way you want them to be. What I like though: the good stuff that comes out of the bad things that happened.


Muackz good night!

Sweet something~

Something you won't get in China.

A good start today. Enjoy your day;)

Little story..

这是一段王菲和谢霆锋的故事。猫猫世界也如此。

Ah fei aka Cami, 6year old. Nic Tse aka QQ, 8mths old. 爱，原本就没那么简单。菲想得太多。The age gap, the cultural differences. Parents'(mine!) consent. List goes on. But QQ is determined and brave to love. After days; 

I hope they live happily ever after. 

Morning@

Breakfast alone. Wanton woman asked: Where is the 广东人？

她回去了。。我好可怜～～
