Dropping by

To say hi!

It's my 5th day in Stockholm today
And I only finally managed to get my stockholm sim card to connect me to the www on the go a couple of hours ago, thanks to hui!
So now I'm updating this while I'm on the bus on my way out...

Heading to one of those factory outlet shopping areas today
I hope I don't spend too much!
I should be refraining or even banned from shopping because of the promise I made myself in shanghai
But honestly, I'm running out of places to visit!

Stockholm isn't exactly an exciting place to be
Not such an ideal vacation destination if you're looking for things to do
But it's nice if you just wanna relax and look at pretty buildings and streets...

And living standards here are really high a well.
It's comparable to England when i was there 4 years ago. Expensive!
So we mostly cook our meals at home.

Cooking is a pretty new experience for me and it's really fun! Hahaha...
So far I've tried to cook omelette with vege mushroom and onion, tortellini with white wine cream sauce, and fish & chips.
I took photos of them, but I don't know how to insert photos with this app, so that's just too bad.
Hui's a lot better though, but I think i just need more practice and trial & error.
So far so good, no stomach upset yet.

Ok that's all I have for now.
Be back in a week! :)

me & my iphone

Snapshot_20100506_1

I know! The design of the skin really doesn’t suit me
but I’m only using it because it came free, and I have yet bought a casing.

Birthday present? hehe :D

oh I am SO DREADING the transit in Doha…
I’ll be boarding at Changi Airport at 2.25am, arriving in Doha at 10am Singapore time, wait for 2 hrs 55 min to board my next flight, then arrive in Stockholm at 1.45pm Stockholm time, which is 7.45pm Singapore time.
Total travel time: 17 hours 20 minutes

And the return is worse, with 7 hrs 20 min of transit time at Doha. Damn it!

Am probably 70% packed and I’m feeling guilty for not doing anything about it for the whole afternoon now… Still have my chargers and toiletries and some other stuff that I’ll probably still need before leaving the house tonight.
I hope I don’t forget anything.

I’ll try not to miss Singapore too much.
Take care in Singapore, everybody :D

iPhone

Yeah, it's finally my turn. Hahaha.

Testing out some apps. I realized that putting punctuations is kinda troublesome.

Wheee... I'm flying off tomorrow already!
Damn soon la. Excited :)
I hope there's free wi-fi in most places there.

Meanwhile, do recommend me some apps if you know of any awesome+free ones k?

:)

Ok I should sleep!

Count your blessings

I love my friends, I really do.
And I can feel that you guys really care and want the best for me.
I feel so loved!

Every single one of you is a blessing to me.
The 24th year of my life has been pretty rocky and horrid, and I think the amount of tears I shed in this one year is more than how much I cried my entire life.
But I have my lessons learnt, and I think I really grew.
I’ll start listing my blessings maybe tonight, because I’m about to head out for dinner.

<3

Time flies…

Every time the volume on my computer is a little louder than it should be, I remember the times when my brother used to tell me, ‘eh, softer. Dad’s sleeping.’

It doesn’t feel like that long ago, but it’s been more than 3 months…

Another!

I dreamt of him again!
But this time I don’t remember what it was about.

I just know I was sobbing when I woke up.

Oh. I don’t know if I like this or not.
Dreaming of him keeps him fresh in my mind
but it reminds me that he’s gone forever…

Another dream

We were out for dinner as a family, 4 of us
We had prawns and crabs, oh yum!

After the meal, Dad was driving home
Mom was in the passenger’s seat
Bro and I were in the backseat, and I was behind Dad

In my dream, I knew he’s gone
He’s just back for a meal with us
So I hugged him from the back
and I looked at him. His face. His hair.
He was just as I last saw him 3 months ago.
And I didn’t wanna look away, because I know I don’t have much time

Then he slowly faded away.

And I sobbed myself awake.
