Little discoveries

Sometimes is quite a good experience to wind through the little streets in Singapore and realised there are more interesting places other than the big shopping malls in Orchard Road. On my way to hunt for some nice fabric for cheongsam in Arab street from Doby Ghaut, I came by some interesting shops near Selegie Road which sold real exotic stuff.And I discovered a shop which sold real delicious traditional pastries which will literally melt in your mouth along Middle road called " Le Cafe Confectionery and Pastry Shop " Everything is perfect today asides from the weather which i still find it hard to adjust.
Oh...by the way, i am going to be back in SIngapore for a month

INFJ

Guess one could change over time, my Myers-Briggs test was so different from what i took 10 years ago. I was a ENFP last time but now i am a INFJ now!!!Wah...i couldn't believe it which means I am an Introvert,Intutive, Feeling and Judging now!!!Taking some time to process the analysis, I guess I could find some answers to why some people said i am complicated like in thoughts and expressions and they said they did not understand what i am talking when i tried to explain my thoughts process on certain issues...Hahaha. some even commented I seemed to be living in an alternative world..which i found myself not hahahah. Now after reading this ..i finally could put a more concrete explanation to this. But don't play play huh, people who shared the same INFJ traits like me are Gandi , Mother teresa ,Martin Luther King..
My dear friends, check out the analysis below and tell me if this is true to me

Another thing to share and rejoice is that i am pursuing something which is equivalent to what i should be doing according to the Myers Test!!!Hahahah, two days ago, I received the good news from BB that I got accepted into my grad school.I am in heavens..is one step towards my dream. I am definitely going to make use of this opportunity to be involved with the research work and helped the world's less privileged children.Is not going to be easy...but I will perservere.

Right now, I need to source for more financial aid and scholarships and beginning to prepare myself to work and study at the same time.Busy Busy Busy...besides this, I am now in SIngapore for a month preparing for the BIG DAY and most importantly helping my beloved cousin who is down with cancer. Please help me pray for her that she can overcome this trial soon.

Promise more updates soon.

O Lovely Spring is here!

I know is crazy. I have been late in my entry again and here I am trying to summarise all the various events which had been going on for the past few weeks.

Spring is definitely coming. You can literally feel it. Is interesting how you just instinctly know it. the weather just suddenly get warmer, you can hear birds chirping once you wake up . And if you started realising that the cherry blossoms are blooming, that will definitely add a big smile on your face. Gosh, Spring= Happy!!Everyone started to dress in bright colours too!And is also a great time for outdoors!My first picnic of the season!

The Bluedevil Kids

Did I tell you that basketball is a BIG thing over here in Duke? Well not only was it exciting to watch a live match in our homeground when our team is playing, it was definitely a good thing to participate in all those cheers and do those silly facepainting and wear the BLUEDEVIL wigs and T-shirts. Gosh, i love it !It made me high and I felt like i am back in high school while I was doing those silly booing cheers. The school spirit was strong.The undergrads were particularly crazy while the graduates were kinda of mellow but still couldn't contain their excitement when the whole stadium started roaring.The Cameroon celebrated when the woman's team beat the UNC team last week and guess what even though the men's team suffered a bitter lost today to UNC, there are two devils celebrating the lost at home just because COACH K ( Duke's men basketball team)was their most terrified man. Look at how mad they become.

Kids Part 1

This is one of my first entry of the series on children. Well, my last conversation with carolyn on phone was pretty interesting. She was telling me how god was in the process of moulding me to become a mother and then shared her BIG PLAN in FALLS with me.I told her about the recent events which evolved around me and BB.Too many kids!!!Too many fun with them!! They glued to us like a sticky bug that their daddies and mummies love to have us around. Just because they can take a break while the children were busy climbing all over us. " Uncle Ronald , Auntie Raine, what's this ? what's that? " Our heads were all fried by them!!

They were whole lot of fun yah and all the mummies and daddies said Ronald and I were ready to become parents. Geez...can you believe this, we din get this from our parents but we get this from our friends while we were overseas??/Man, is this a calling? I let god decide.

Snowshoe Mountain!

I suppose is time i need to challenge myself to step out of my comfort zone. Last three days were whole lots of adrenalin pushing. The speed was amazing. I used to like that but now i will prefer slow and easy something like golf. Is interesting how I used to like skiing. The speed excites me ,rejuvenates me but now it made me fear. What has gone wrong? Risk adverse? Less adventurous? Age catching up?Every little steep slope was a hurdle for me. Well, no one around to help except Ron who was way ahead of me. The rest was snowboarding!

I paused at one of the steep slope.Everyone went down the slope.I was hesitating. I was afraid. I waited there like the night will come. I knew i needed to overcome this.I knew I need to be a overcomer in order to see a brighter future over this slope. I prayed.I took a deep breathe and wheeee....I swayed from one end to the other end, like a graceful swan dancing on a pond.I wasn't wobbling but you can see that my legs were trying hard to control the speed. It was way too fast for me!

I was glad I overcome it. I gave a small invisible pat on myself and thought: " Isn't life suppose to be like this? You can't just stop trying because you are afraid. Sometimes, you just need to be an overcomer. "

It was a love hate relationship with me and the skis. I love the way the sport challenge myself to go beyond my limits but I also hated it because I have to be fast.

Snowshoe was a fantastic place. You felt like you stepped into a little garden of eden. The weather was great. The drive was scenic.The cabin was cosy. And more importantly, the crowd was great!!Nothing beats to have a fun rock holiday with a group of friends!

BB's Birthday

When you are seeing each other everyday, there is no way you can lose sight of each other when every single event in your life is so closely related. I felt i can hardly move myself out of Ron's sight to get a pressie for his birthday. I felt so bad . Maybe we share the same car and there is no way you can move around over here without a car. I hv been thinking of what to get for his birthday this year and arranging some surprises since this is his first birthday to be spent as a couple.Cupcakes was the initial idea but i dismissed that since I sucked at baking. And guess what, today, when we gathered for a CNY gathering,his fren's wife baked him some cupcakes and we sang him a birthday song. Then he said," it has been a long time since i hv blowed candles and have a cake." gosh...can you imagine how bad I felt???I wish i had just baked the cupcakes ....I reallie wish...
i hope he will like what i get for him..I will pass him the pressie when the clock struck twelve tonight.
