My dear H really has a way to make me laugh and cry at the same time.. We were having our usual phone conversation and I brought up the topic about my mom expecting me to buy a present for her for Mothers Day.

K: Sian.. Mom expects me to buy a present for her.. Eh.. So next time how? Will you do the same thing for me?
H: What...... I will give you cards..
K: Huh -__- Cards not counted leh..
H: I can give you flowers too..
K: Cards and flowers are a GIVEN..

*********** more arguing and laughter later****************

K: So you will end up one year give card , one year dun give right!
H: No.. I will one year give, TWO years dun give.. Wahahaha
K: !@#$%^&
H: Or one year give card, next year go POPYEYES, the year after we will go Manhattan Fish Market for their flaming platter for 2!!

I really feel like crying at this point but what he said sound ridiculously funny I was laughing away.

K: Damn.. I need reassurance that this wouldn't happen in future when we are married!
H: Of course wouldn’t happen la.. If not next day kenna frying pan!

Then another argument about frying pans arose

K: I suspect you will get me a frying pan in the future… Super unromantic.
K: I need you to reassure me that I will not be getting frying pans or frying pans equivalents during special days.
H: I will reassure you that I will tie the frying pan with a ribbon before giving it to you.
K: -__-
H: What’s wrong with frying pans? They are very useful. And you wouldn’t be getting it every year since they can last very long. I can get you something else. Ah! Deep fryer!
K: -__- -__-

不用多说了

I am not becoming materialistic, am I? Tell me, who in their right mind want to receive a frying pan or a deep fryer or equivalent on special occasions??!!! Totally zero romance can!! Sobs! I really hope this stays as a joke and not become a reality nightmare…


It’s not like I’m asking for the moon and stars… Well a dance under the stars would be nice… A surprise party? A round the island spin at night? A surprise holiday? (When we are financially capable of course)

Sighs… I need a knight to sweep me off my feet and shower me with romance until I’m smothered by it. And what is romance anyway, I am so confused..

Romance vs reality… Who will win?

I read an article in Lifestyle this month and I find it quite appealing.. The guy who wrote this is a Japanese doctor from the WWII era. He is 98 years old and still active in the hospital he started, which is now the nation's top medical facility. Cool-max!

Jotted down some interesting and important points so that I can reference back in future..

Feel Good and
Be Happy by Dr. Shigeaki Hinohara

Energy comes from feeling good, not from eating well or sleeping a lot.

All people who live long, regardless of nationality, race or gender , share one thing in common: None are overweight

Always plan ahead

Share what you know

When a doctor recommends you take a test or have some surgery, ask whether the doctor would suggest that his or her spouse or children go through such a procedure.

To stay healthy, always take the stairs and carry your own stuff.

Pain is mysterious, and having fun is the best way to forget it. If a child has a toothache, and you start playing a game together, he or she immediately forgets the pain.

Don't be crazy about ammassing material things. Remember: You don't know when your number is up and you can't take it with you to the next place.

Hospitals must be designed and prepared for major disasters, and they must accept every patient who appears at their doors. i.e. BE PREPARED.

Science alone can't cure or help people. Diseases are connected to the hearts.

Life is filled with incidents

Find a role model and aim to achieve even more than they could ever do.

It's wonderful to live long.
