Later in the evening, we enjoyed hot air balloons night glow at Basin Reserve.....over yummy hot dog.


Munching my hot dog away while waiting for the balloons to be erected

Homesick, end of first quarter and daylight saving

Finally got hold on my brother who is currently enjoying his long 4 weeks holiday in Singapore. My parents are there too, enjoying shopping, food and all *envy*. Bro's home in Singapore no longer has phone and internet and I only have his old expired singapore mobile number. I somehow forgot to get their contact details in Singapore before they left so was having a bit of difficulty hunting them down. Lucky that I bummed into him (in msn) last night while he was internet-ing in McD. Now, got his and my dad's number.

When I rang dad, he has just arrived into Singapore from Kuching. He sounded so energetic and happy. So many things to say like that *LOL* comparing to few weeks ago I called him when he was alone in Kuching (my mum was still in Perth with my bro). He was missing my mum. Now that mum and dad have reunited, he is again a very happy man! *LOL* I hope Rick and I would be as loving as them after 37 years of marriage. I know we will!

Anyway, quarter of the year has passed by. Fast isn't it? I was like blur blur sit here do nothing then 3 months gone already. Reviewing the 1st quarter of the year, I have

...completed 3 road trips
...sorted out my up coming trips
...planted my lavenders
...found myself a new range of skincare/haircare
...bought a Kathmandu down jacket that I had always wanted
...sold out a few unwanted clothes/accessories, and
...cried like no tomorrow (Drama - Starlit) LOL

Not bad I thought. I could have done more but hey life is not about pushing/rushing yourself like hell. It is important to slow down and enjoy the essence of it, yes?

On a side note,

Daylight saving has just started. We are now back 1 hour. This is always a love-hate feeling for me. I like the fact that it feels like (and it actually is) we have gained an extra hour on that one day but the aftermath is quite hard to bear. I now feel hungry an hour earlier, and I have to starve for another hour before I could have my breakfast/lunch/dinner. This probably goes on for a week before my biological clock adjusts itself. I really hate being starved, I get grumpy. I could have resorted to biscuits/snacks in between, but then the effect will be disastrous (i.e. gaining weight) if this turns into a habit, especially now that winter is just around the corner. What is the point of having this daylight saving since it is only like ONE hour difference anyway? Duh!

Quick update

I didn't get to have egg tarts the last time I went yum cha couple of weeks ago. My wish granted today! Hahahahhaha


Egg tart, egg tart, I love you.....


Here is what I wore today with my new boots....well actually bought them long time ago but only decided to wear it today. Really love the fluffy faux fur on the top part. And it has got this cute little ribbon on each side too. I love the boots so much that I bought two exact same pairs!! Buy one get one free bah, and I can keep a pair for future right? Now am hunting for something similar but in light brown or beige.



Rick is cooking today.....dinner is ready! Bye!
