HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY!

It's the day of the year for all the lovey-dovey stuffs! Roses, chocolates, soft toys, etc... The list goes on. And who is the happiest of them all? Girls?? Nah... I would say it's the merchandisers! Hahahaa...

Don't get me wrong... I may say this but I am actually an avid supporter of this kind of things. Anytime there's a special day coming up, you'll find me bustling around gift shops and whatever related shops WAY in advance - just trying to get the right piece of card and the right piece of gift. And I'll be there like many, many times, just so that I don't make the wrong buy! ;D

Anyway, so back to the topic - the No. 2 happiest of them all would be of course the girls. Yes, you have guessed it right. Even though it is a day to celebrate love, not just between a pair of lover, but also between family members and friends - the focus is still on the girls! We'd be showered with all the goodies, when majority of the guys could only watch with envy.

Even at workplace, our ever so kind CEO presented each and every one of the girls in the company with a box of Ferrero Rocher, as a token of appreciation - and it's solely for girls, nothing for the guys! Haha! And this is the way it is each year, when it comes to Valentine's day. Face it guys, not your day. ;P
[My guy colleagues are gonna come after me!]

And everywhere you go, there you see - roses from fiance, teddy from boyfriend... Nothing delivered to the guys and you hear them complaining, "I'm broke, man. And later, gotta fork out money for dinner... And Chinese New Year is so near, need to buy hampers... Where to find the money?"

Even me, I have a nice bouquet of roses from my dear hubby - with a sweet white teddy in the middle holding a heart saying 'I love you', together with a card that sings a tune and also with red hearts popping here and there in the bouquet. And I'm the centre of attention for the department this year - as I'm the only lucky person to have stuffs delivered to the office! ;D

Anyway, Happy Valentine's Day! Enjoy it with your loved ones. Remember - even the smallest of token should be appreciated with a happy heart as it is the thought that counts, not the size nor value!

I'M FAT! OR AM I?

Hahahaa... This is good, "Please God - If you can't make me thin, make my friends fat!!" How I wish!

I actually have a petite frame, and consider myself to have a 'just nice' body - in terms of composition of flesh or you can call it fat on my body! But I have this teeny-weeny issue where my face would be the first part that bloats up if I ever gain weight. It can be rather frustrating at times as it really shows - afterall the face is usually what others see when they first look at you.

I really do envy the people out there that would have very slim face regardless of how the body is. You know what I mean? They're just so pretty all the time! Face would be the last thing they have to worry about as it stays the same size.

I am really starting to worry now as every now and then, when I walk around the office, there'd be people telling me, "Hey, think you put on some weight!" and give me that big grin - which is not a good thing!

It all started about 3 months ago, which was right after my wedding. Yeah, by the way, I tied the knot about 3 months back to my college sweetheart. We'll talk about how we met and stuffs like that ok, sometime in the next blogs.

Well, before the wedding, we went on a strict diet and exercise regime to keep the fats away - so that we'd look good in the wedding pics! And it works! The photos were great! Anyway, after the wedding, we thought like well, perhaps we can slow it down a little... You know, just enjoy life's little pleasures - especially food. We love food. The list of our favourite restaurants is endless - Secret Recipe, Baskin Robbins, Sushi King, TGI Friday's, Dome Cafe, Nando's, Kenny Roger's Roasters, 1901 Hotdogs, Old Town Kopitiam, Vietnam Kitchen, etc.

Perhaps it's time to cut down on the indulgences - we've been eating like nobody's business! Better behave before it's too late!
