Going Pilates/Yoga nearly everyday and suddenly this morning, I didn’t ache at all.

I wonder if my body is conditioned already.

Been trying to finish this TVB serial. Too much backstabbing and bitchiness for me to handle. But good for me to revise my cantonese - just in case I have to bitch with my client?!?

Hahaa…

Oh my gawd. SERIOUSLY???

In the last week, we have been emailing NL, BS and GL with plans about going to Bangkok together. We were trying to coincide with our trip back to SunnyLand.

NT and BS is going Bangkok next week so they were not too excited about another trip there so soon. We thought about Hong Kong, but KL and I went there just last year, even though it was just one day. The thing is, we haven’t been to Bangkok for nearly 10 years. GL haven’t been to either so she’s okay with it.

I was just thinking that although it will be cheaper to go Bangkok, the clothes there probably don’t fit me. I’m likely to be XXL there. *sigh…

By the way, I feel really bad not telling dad about this trip because I know he will gatecrash our trip. Especially when he knows everyone so well.
Looking at this Hairy Crabs picture I took last year in Hong Kong makes me reconsider going HK again. Well, of coz having H&M open there recently also. But I think it’s best to do the BKK trip. It would be easier for the pockets at least.

Tomorrow is CT’s birthday and we had a small intimate dinner at Dragon Boat. Not bad since I thought it was for loser angmos.

The main theme was Lobster Noodles. Nice!

After Pilates today, I came off the reformer machine, I went all jelly-legs. People who saw it laughed. Yes, it was embarressing.

This is my 3rd week at Yoga/Pilates and I can touch my toes!! Well, successfully touching my toes without bending my knees.

YIPEE!!!

I feel more grounded and balance now. It also helps that my teachers tell me that I’m improving everyday and hearing, “That’s a good pose, H.”

The setback? I ache every morning I wake up. Hahaa..

I received in a long chinese email this morning at work. I have no clue what it said. Luckily, they was an English translation at the bottom.

Sent it to Co for laughs. She wrote back and said, ” You do realise that you are part of the ‘China Team’ right?”

I emailed her back, “PUI!”

Co replied, “I’m not joking. Scroll down.”

“Please forward this to the China Team”

I wrote to Co, “Craps! I can’t even read the first line. Let alone understand.”

Co emailed back with this:

“Tats alright. U’re still part of the china team. They love you and will overlook your ’shortcomings’. They might just make you china team leader, for your ability to chit chat with them and attend long dinners with them. Hehehehehe *snigger*”

ARGH!

We went Yu-u again - 2nd time. Love the Yakitori as usual. Spend some time together and finally finished the dinner at 9.30pm.

The Wagyu beef is good too. But at the end, we decided that we are sort of sick of the place already.

While watching a Bollywood movie on TV, KL said, “Woah, the school seriously have a pigeon problem.”

I spent the whole of the weekend staring at my pimple on my chin. I get one of these gigantic acne-like pimple once every couple of years.

Pondered the whole of Saturday thinking if I should prick it and squeeze it.

On our occassional walks around our neigbourhood, I chanced upon our neighbour’s cat - Looking all grouchy.

Just in case I lose it.

Bak Kwa

1 lb (450g) minced meat
1 1/2 tbsp fish sauce or light soya sauce
1 tbsp dark soy sauce
1 tbsp cooking wine
1/2 cup sugar

1. Put minced meat in a big bowl. Add seasoning. Use chopsticks and stir in one direction until the meat becomes gluey.

2. Put meat on a piece of parchment paper and flatten out with the back of a spoon.

3. Bake the meat in a preheated oven at 125 deg for 20 mins.

4. Then increase the temp to 180 deg and bake for another 20 - 30 minutes. (If you want harder bak kwa, then bake for a longer period of time, but watch that it doesn’t burn.)

5. Let it cool.

Experiment and adjust the seasonings to find a flavour that you like.

Saw this shop on the street near our place. I reckon, Ah Bengs probably patronise the shop.

Strangely, this shop is opposite the other.

NO!!! We lost Speedo already! We can’t lose Eric!

It looks like pearls - metal pearls. Very modern. Very chic.

I fell in love with it the moment I saw it. It looks great on me too!

On the last day of my parents trip, we bought them to Beacon Cove for Fish & Chips.

We walk around to have a better look at the Spirit of Tasmania ship and took some pictures.

Dad said that the next trip he comes, we’ll go take this ship to Tasmania.

I miss him already.

We went to the Dentist today and was told that I had ONE filling to do. While KL was scared of going to the dentist, he had a grand total of 5 fillings to fill. Heheee….

So we are scheduled for another day to do. To add to KL’s horror, he had to have a look at all his wisdom tooth, including the one hidden. Craps, although I had right side wisdom removed, he wants to extract my lefties.

Well… I think I fair better than KL. Hehee…

The Unagi Don I ordered yesterday, came like this.

Hmmm…. BS would have a field day.

Just got back to yoga again this week. Because I have been rather stressed since my parents came and then busy at work, my “Tree” was swaying like a real one in the typhoon.

I need balance.
