Rhonda SG Y’know, I miss the days when we chatted in here non-stop and the posts came fast and furious.
Meia Gisborn SG Perhaps a little slowdown is welcome. I remember leaving for a one-hour lunch and returning to over 6 pages of new posts!
littlestream SG I just came back from the cafe. Nothing looked appealing. Guess what I brought back? One oatmeal/raisins cookie and one white chocolate/macademia nut cookie. Yeap, that unhealthy. And I NEED TO LOSE ALL THAT WEIGHT! I was chanting that while walking back.
Rhonda SG Oh yeah, those were the fun days! Well, a little slowdown for a short while is good and necessary cause we all need to recharge our batteries. However, I'm just kinda missing those days!
Rhonda SG Oatmeal n raisins cookie!! Yummy!!! Ah well, hard for those of us who love food AND don't have a high metabolic rate to lose weight. Sad, hor?
littlestream SG Oh, it was a working weekend? Hope all's well. Yeap, thanks, Rhonda. Hmm.....Big River? Ta is ta but the ta nan ren. But he is a good ta nan ren. And maybe I do need a man like that to tame a wild cat.
Rhonda SG Reminds me of Shakespeare's "The Taming of the Shrew". Well, hmm... since I don't have a 'ta nan ren', does it mean that I'm still a wild one?
Meia Gisborn SG Or perhaps the attention had temporarily shifted, in this case to that "elitist" thread (which seems to have died a natural death, thankfully!). How are your preparations for your departure coming along?
littlestream SG Yah, I looked myself in the mirror and wonder what mooncake is that? Hubby and I were talking last weekend that "what good is beauty when one do not have health?" What a great excuse to eat. Yeap, those fast and furious days eh? But one thing I've learnt in life? Nothing last forever, so cherish while we are at it. Enjoy the moment. Not referring to this but in everything else. With friends, jobs, hobbies, lifestyles, blah, blah, blah.............
littlestream SG MG, what’s for lunch? Brought one or heading out? It’s still nice at the teens isn’t it? But it was windy yesterday. My fingers were freezing as I harvest my chillies.
Rhonda SG MG, I'm trying to pace myself, to contain all that excitement so that I'll gradually build up to a crescendo just before I leave, instead of burning out then! The agency's rushing me to submit the application to the nursing board for my licence already but I don't really wanna rush things yet. It's still a tad too early. Timing is of the essence! It's not like I can leave tomorrow! I'm now discarding things and sorting things out at leisure. I've tons to go through so that'll be a royal pain in the derriere! Worse, today, I received news that contrary to what was promised, the town council might actually insist on my unit having its pipes changed as part of upgrading, which means that there'll be major inconveniences to me. Worse, it's all gonna happen when I'm on vacation too so I probably will have to get mom or someone to housesit for me. *grumbles
Meia Gisborn SG Probably the usual turkey and cheese sandwich, although I reserve the right to go out and get something else if the mood strikes me. Isn't it getting below freezing at night now in your area? I hope your chillies don't die from the frost!
Rhonda SG Yup! hehe! And, looking at my history, it'll most likely happen when I'm least aware of his presence even! It's always been like that in my life - the guys I like have always run 10 miles away from me, those that I'm apathetic about will come approach me and persist in hounding me till I relent. Weird, right?
Meia Gisborn SG Perhaps if you change the brand of perfume you use, the desirable ones won't sprint away quite so readily.....
Rhonda SG Nope, I think I'd better keep the same ol' perfume ... it repels those who aren't for me but I'm too blind to realise it.
littlestream SG Aiyoh, you heard it from the wrong grapevine lah. Where got freezing? My chillies still crisp and hot. It's still flowering so I've not kill it yet. The only thing it is not doing is turning red. No, evenings or nights are still nice......well, as long as the wind co-operates. Enjoy your lunch. I consider I have had mine. I have a tangerine and a pear in my lunch bag for later. But for now, looks like I need some siesta time.
littlestream SG Eh, you sound like Bear leh. He also said he blur one. You two are meant for each other lah. Period. Both blur, so compatible. Okay, I'll be your maid of honour. There we go again. I remember typing this in your that Chinese wedding thread.
