I should be studying right now and not on my computer.
I only finished revising 2 chapters of accounting and maybe a tiny winy bit of english.
I should be more worried man. Looking at the books makes me tired.

A funny picture to start off the post.
Anyway, this is bike we bought from Giant. Dont we all love Giant, they sell everything!
Bought these two bikes for about $180 each. Not cheap lor.
But oh well, both of us love it!
We were trying to fix the bikes onto the bicycle racks.
But fail...
In the end, we just put it into the van itself. Hehe.
We went straight to bedok reservoir for a ride. And best of all, Ikea was there too!
And surprisingly, she love to sit in the basket we got specially for her. And she enjoys it man! Maybe it the same way why seh enjoys sticking her head out of the vehicle when baby;s driving!
Oh ya, baby got this for me. Its baby pooh! Aint it cute? I have so so many softtoys at home already. And if really one day, we move in together, you know where all those soft toys is going to be right? :p
Baby put everything together, including the basket, thte flowers and the purple thingy. Its so pretty!!

Was actually planning to go on a short holiday on the 10th of March for our 4th yr anni.
But change our mind and a few days back, we went to buy each other a foldable bicycle as an advance pressie!!
Its weird huh, bicycle for an annivesary. But I think its a cool idea.
And come to think of it, during these 4 years of the relationship, we never even cycle together before. Its something new to us I guess. :p
Took some photos of the bike but I am a little lazy to post it up, maybe tomorrow or something.
Haven decide what to do yet for the 10th. But I am definitely looking forward to it!
Exams are coming... Damn sian leh.
Why cant I be smart like Albert Einstein....
Ohhh yay, CNY! Iove my AngBaos this year, pretty fat! I like!
Money Money!!
Haiyo, I am so random today!

The Mayonnaise Jar
The Mayonnaise Jar
When things in your life seem almost too much to handle, when 24 hours in a day is not enough, remember the mayonnaise jar and 2 cups of coffee.
A professor stood before his philosophy class and had some items in front of him.When the class began, wordlessly, he picked up a very largeand empty mayonnaise jar and proceeded to fill it with golf balls.
He then asked the students if the jar was full.
They agreed that it was.
The professor then picked up a box of pebbles and poured them into the jar. He shook the jar lightly.The pebbles rolled into the open areas between the golf balls.
He then asked the students again if the jar was full.
They agreed it was.
The professor next picked up a box of sand and poured it into the jar. Of course, the sand filled up everything else.
He asked once more if the jar was full.
The students responded with an unanimous 'yes.'
The professor then produced two cups of coffee from under the table and poured the entire contents into the jar, effectively filling the empty space between the sand.
The students laughed.
'Now,' said the professor,
as the laughter subsided, 'I want you to recognize that this jar represents your life.
The golf balls are the important things - God, family, children, health, friends, and favorite passions -- things that if everything else was lost and only they remained, your life would still be full.''
The pebbles are the other things that matter like your job, house, and car.''
The sand is everything else -- the small stuff.
''If you put the sand into the jar first,' he continued, 'there is no room for the pebbles or the golf balls.
The same goes for life.
''If you spend all your time and energy on the small stuff, you will never have room for the things that are important to you.
''So... pay attention to the things that are critical to your happiness.
Play With your children.
Take time to get medical checkups.'
'There will always be time to clean the house
And fix the disposal.
''Take care of the golf balls first -- the things that really matter.
Set your priorities.
The rest is just sand.
'One of the students raised her hand and inquired what the coffee represented.
The professor smiled. 'I'm glad you asked.
''It just goes to show you that no matter how full your life may seem,there's always room for a couple of cups of coffee with a friend.'

Jia all alone
I am all alone at baby's place right now.
Was freaking scary just now, When i left his place in the afternoon to go home for my reunion dinner, his parent room door was closed. I remembered that very clearly. But when i returned, the door was wide open.
I was so freaked out. Pls remember I am all alone in someone's place okay? Imagine how scared I was.
Sms baby and he called shortly saying that there is nothing to worry about as something like that happen before.. There is some problem with the door and it was open by itself when there is a strong wind.
Oh man.. Still a little scared but better.
Tonight wont be able to bring Jia back to my place to sleep, cuz tomorrow will be Chu Yi, I dont have time in the morning to bring her back to baby's place. It would be very rush. Poor her, she have to sleep alone tonight, so worried for her.
How man?? Scared that she might start howling.
Tsk, baby come home faster leh.....
Car wash and wax
Since I have a little bit of time right now and while waiting for baby to reach YongPeng (Johor) to get a prepaid card so that he can call and sms me, I am going to do some blogging.
So use to talking to baby everynight for at least a few hours before we sleep, I hate new years sometime. Although the Ang Bao part was rather tempting, but sian la, can only see baby on Chu Er.
And Ikea is sleeping over at my place tonight. And tomorrow morning, gonna walk her back to baby's place. I got the keys to his place la. Haiz... Bedok Reservoir to Hougang, wonder if I can really make it that far. Or rather can Ikea walk that far. And this whole sleeping over thing will repeat till baby come home. Mother doesnt want Ikea over the whole day cuz Ikea is too hyper active, she cant stand it.
Super sian leh.. Come back faster leh...
Anyway, something we did last week.
Initial place was to send the vehicle down to some car place to ask them to wax the van for the new year. But end up, we both agree that doing it ourselves will be a more economical and fun way, though more of the economical side la. Heh. We head down to Mustafa one night and bought all the necessary stuffs for the wax and started doing it a few days after.
So, we found ourselves a nice mutli storey carpark, park the van at the washing bay and started our long tiring "journey"
The wax and spray detailer we bought.
Our pails of water from the dipenser.
We started for washing the vehicle first, then vacumming all the interior and finally the waxing part.
Goodness, it is not easy I tell you. All together, we spend a good 5-6 hours there doing everything. Waxing is the hardest and it takes up majourity of the time. We were so exhausted after that man.
But the results was very satisfactory. Its nice and shiny and we are both so proud of it.
But, we are both not going to do it again, its so tiring and tedious okay?
Next year, we are just going to send it to someone to do it for us.

We even set up a little table to put all the car washing and waxing equipments. We look like a professional washer la. Hehehe. So funny.
Ohhh, ya, the night before, we froze a big bottle of mango cordial in the freezer. So in the morning, we can have cold mango juice thru out the whole day till the ice melts. Aint we smart? You got to give us credit for that man.. Super duper smart of us la. :p

Two Horses
" Two Horses "
Just up the road from my home is a field, with two horses in it.
From a distance, each horse looks like any other horse. But if you stop your car, or are walking by, you will notice something quite amazing....
Looking into the eyes of one horse will disclose that he is blind. His owner has chosen not to have him put down, but has made a good home for him. This alone is amazing.
If you stand nearby and listen, you will hear the sound of a bell. Looking around for the source of the sound, you will see that it comes from the smaller horse in the field. Attached to the horse's halter is a small bell.
It lets the blind friend know where the other horse is, so he can follow.
As you stand and watch these two friends, you'll see that the horse with the bell is always checking on the blind horse, and that the blind horse will listen for the bell and then slowly walk to where the other horse is, trusting that he will not be led astray.
When the horse with the bell returns to the shelter of the barn each evening, it stops occasionally and looks back, making sure that the blind friend isn't too far behind to hear the bell.
Like the owners of these two horses, God does not throw us away just because we are not perfect or because we have problems or challenges.
He watches over us and even brings others into our lives to help us when we are in need..
Sometimes we are the blind horse being guided by the little ringing bell of those who God places in our lives.
Other times we are the guide horse, helping others to find their way....
Good friends are like that... You may not always see them, but you know they are always there.
And remember...
Be kinder than necessary
Everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle.
Live simply,
Love generously,
Care deeply,
Speak kindly......
Leave the rest to God

Excuse me are u Jesus??
"Excuse me, are you Jesus?"
A few years ago a group of salesmen went to a regional sales convention in Chicago. They had assured their wives that they would be home in plenty of time for Friday night's dinner. In their rush, with tickets and briefcases, one of these salesmen inadvertently kicked over a table which held a display of apples. Apples flew everywhere. Without stopping or looking back, they all managed to reach the plane in time for their nearly-missed boarding.
ALL BUT ONE!!! He paused, took a deep breath, got in touch with his feelings, and experienced a twinge of compassion for the girl whose apple stand had been overturned. He told his buddies to go without him, waved good-bye, told one of them to call his wife when they arrived at their home destination and explain his taking a later flight. Then he returned to the terminal where the apples were all over the terminal floor.
He was glad he did. The 16-year-old girl was totally blind! She was softly crying, tears running down her cheeks in frustration, and at the same time helplessly groping for her spilled produce as the crowd swirled about her; no one stopping and no one to care for her plight..
The salesman knelt on the floor with her, gathered up the apples, put them back on the table and helped organize her display. As he did this, he noticed that many of them had become battered and bruised; these he set aside in another basket.
When he had finished, he pulled out his wallet and said to the girl, 'Here, please take this $40 for the damage we did. Are you okay?'
She nodded through her tears. He continued on with, 'I hope we didn't spoil your day too badly.'
As the salesman started to walk away, the bewildered blind girl called out to him, 'Mister.... Excuse me,'
He paused and turned to look back into those blind eyes.
She continued, 'Are you Jesus?'
He stopped in mid-stride, and he wondered. Then slowly he made his way to catch the later flight with that question burning and bouncing about in his soul: 'Are you Jesus?' Do people mistake you for Jesus?
That's our destiny, is it not? To be so much like Jesus that people cannot tell the difference as we live and interact with a world that is blind to His love, life and grace.
If we claim to know Him, we should live, walk and act as He would. Knowing Him is more than simply quoting Scripture and going to church. It's actually living the Word as life unfolds day to day.
You are the apple of His eye even though we, too, have been bruised by a fall. He stopped what He was doing and picked up you and me on a hill called Calvary and paid in full for our damaged fruit.
