Case number #2947

*Studies show that from birth,
most boys like pink.

But as they point pink stuff out to their mothers,
the moms will smack their hands and push them to the blue colors.

So after a while the boys will have to suppress their love for pink and learn how to accept blue.
And after a few years, the boys will like blue and the pink will be cut away from their lives.
Social conditioning, tsk.

*Studies taken from the files of Felicia @ Babyware and seen through the eyes of Felicia.

We are all born to feel negatively, emotionally.
It's normal to feel sad and emo once in a while..
But be careful not to dwell in that pool of misery too much.
What if you sink too deep to get out?

We live in a 3-dimensional world.
And though now our problems seem to overwhelm us up from the left and right view,
sometimes you just need that someone to pull you up and see the top view of things.
Things aren't that big as they seem...
Suddenly things look easier to fix, no?

Things always appear how you want them to.
Happy = Happy incidents
Sad = Sad and unlucky things happen

I'm learning how to take things in my stride,
because after every storm/rain/drizzle will come a rainbow.
It is whether you'd want to lift up your head to see it or not.
Nooo I'm not getting sadistic and saying that Yes today I have a bad day but lalala it's okay bad day is still a good day oh hallelujah.
Non non, absolument pas. (poser hahaha)

I guess what I'm saying is that sometimes by seeing the unfortunate things as a learning thing, you might save yourself a few tears and heart ache.
And I don't know, I'm not so emo nowadays and I just thought I'd share the secret to my happier days.
I mean if there's nothing good to think about then I'd rather not.
But if it's good then share and spread the love (L)

Olive: Grandpa, do you think I’m pretty?
Grandpa: Olive, you are the most beautiful girl in the whole world!
Olive: Nah, you’re just saying that…
Grandpa: No, I’m not kidding. I’m madly in love with you, and it’s not because of your brains or your personality.

Awww sweet grandpa.

center partinggg

I've been wanting something like this for a while but have never gotten round to buy it and woah, an angel blessed me with what I wanted! pretty hairband :)

1) Thanks Jy.

2) Need to stay home more to spend time with my family. Sorry mum for making you worried. Thanks dad for understanding. Shawn.. what happened? Eze I'll play Green TD with you. Marquis I'll start walking you again.

3) Flattered but no.

4) Felicia, grades aren't all that.

5) the destiny You have for me.

to hear Your voice

We are the sum total of the choices we've made in our lives,
who we are now is because of what we choose to let in and let out.
And over time, these things shape us.
Free will.

But at certain points in time,
we may need to make decisions so big that it will change our lives.
Imagine if you'd gone with this instead of that.
How would your life turn out?
I may have felt sad or angry but now I think I learn from them,
to become who I am today too.
So in a way, I am who I am because of the choices I didn't make..
if that makes sense.
*
& now,

just a simple decision of whether I should further my studies or stay in sg is proving harder to decide.

*
Pray.

Our hope is Yahweh, Yahweh

turn off the lights and listen to the song.
sing it out with all your heart, dance the dance He has given you.
no one's watching, just you and Yahweh.

Moments

OMG my dad's super funny i seriously LMAO-ed and ROFL-ed

My mac's batt was dying and I have this automated voice to warn me and so just now my dad was sitting beside me when the mac said 'you are now running on reserve battery power'

then my dad went 'huh what you say??????????????????' to my mac.

It was funny in the moment but now you're prolly scratching your head and thinking I need some sleep. You're right, I do. Good night.

"You are now running on reserve battery power"

*suppressed laughter*

Oh daddy thanks for always cracking me up.

Had a good time today at g-g-games night too! Wii was aweomse food was awesome people are awesome. One big word to sum it up: FAMILY.

"See, we make this way too complicated. If a guy likes you, he will let you know. End of story. Until that happens, you can go on being your classy, witty, and amazing self. When he finally shows up, he won’t think twice about asking you out, and all you’ll have to do is say yes."

Interesting Incident

Was working in babyware and so this chatty swedish lady and I got talking about baby products and all. Amazing how I can hold a conversation about baby products now.

Where was I? Oh yes, baby talk.

So our conversation went like this after she was telling me about her obedient and respectful little boy.

Me: Wow I wish my boy will be like that *thinking of the future*

Lady: *thinking of the 'now'* OH you have a boy huh? Sorry I couldn't tell butwellyouknowinthisagehahaha- how old are you, dear?

Me: Oh no no I'm 18 and I don't--

Lady: 18! Goodness you have a head start. So how old's your husband?

Me: I'm not married!

Lady: Oh it's alright it's becoming so common now we woman can raise a child on our own, I always tell my hubby hahahaha

Me: Yeah but it must be tiring.. This neck support cushion is comfortable for your boy, I'm sure he'll like it.

Lady: Hm yes he likes blue..... *touches the cushion*

Me: And it's $XX too. And I don't have a child.

Lady: Oh silly me! I thought you had. Mmm okay I'll buy it.. And that bib too for my grandson. He's in sweden now but he's part singaporean!

Random conversations like that amuse me so.

Uh-huh that's how bored I am at work sometimes.. (hint: visit babyware)

Haha but let me know if you're coming, I wouldn't want you catching me mid-daydream with my eyes glazed over and my mind light years away.

Not that I daydream often, of course. It's just sometimes there's nothing much to do so I stare into space and next thing you know I'm singing beside britney spears! Quite addictive, I must say.

So hi stephen if you're reading this, I don't mean to slack and when I'm not dreaming I'm 100% focused on the shop and baby products and customers :D go babyware!

In all honesty, I love babyware and I like to daydream.

I daydream we'd all be walking randomly and someone will talk a guitar out and start playing and someone sings in and we all dance jump laugh sing along. Like sound of music lol

I've been surviving because the joy of the Lord is my strength, and I'm recharged every night from spending time with You.

DOSE OF CHIO-NESS

another pair of ACNE wedge

rings! or should i say finger bracelets? lol

i'm contemplating buying this cors i'm looking for black wedges like that but i shouldn't waste money right?
but... but.

*pats self on back*

I want to be brave(r)

"Superman isn’t brave. He is indestructible, indestructible people can’t be brave. It’s normal people who know that they can be crushed, but do it anyway, who are truly brave."

I thought I felt my heart break.
But after spending time talking or meeting with friends who are in their own way precious to me,
I know that things aren't that bad as I thought.
God's love flowed out of them to me.
They filled up my love bank haha thanks!

Yeah Jying, I'm looking around and counting my blessings.
And rachel xoxo nafa, don't run from it, you're stronger than you think :)

Feast today, for tomorrow we fight.

Time to nourish the body.

Banana + nutella + wholemeal bread (Y)

And wow am I one lucky girl or what, there's 2 bananas at home now

AND I've nutella AND wholemeal bread

Just my two cents worth,

I was thinking that now the food I eat tastes so bland and how am I gonna get the strength to get well if I keep skipping my meal due to poor appetite and therefore I conclude-

When you are sick, is the time when you should eat tasty and yummy food so that you can eat irregardless if your taste buds are hibernating or fighting wars with thousands of germs now and you will surely gobble up the food and food = energy = strength = fight off sickness = recover faster!

I think if I'm sick and I eat hospital food daily I would remain sick because I will have to force myself to eat and will not be happy and if I'm not happy then where will my will power to fight the sickness come from?

So I think that when you're sick you should be at your happiest and not being miserable in a cold dark danky room crying.

'cause being in sch even when I'm sick and seeing my friends being so concerned and nice to me = makes me happy = makes me feel better = recover faster!

Sometimes the people we love just forget to love us back.

My cry

People are gonna disappoint you. I get that… I kind of expect that. But I don’t know. What if you wake up one day and realize that you’re the disappointment?

Well, learn from this, buck up and keep moving. I can't just kill myself because of a setback.
I need You so much more, I can do so little alone.
Oh Lord, oh Lord, oh Lord.

BE PRODUCTIVE. MAKE O-M-G S'MORE BARS

Recipe:

Ingredients:

1/2 cup butter, room temperature
1/4 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup sugar
1 large egg
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 1/3 cups all purpose flour
3/4 cup graham cracker crumbs
1 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
2 king-sized milk chocolate bars (e.g. Hershey’s)
1 1/2 cups marshmallow creme/fluff (not melted marshmallows)

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease an 8-inch square baking pan. In a large bowl, cream together butter and sugar until light. Beat in egg and vanilla. In a small bowl, whisk together flour, graham cracker crumbs, baking powder and salt. Add to butter mixture and mix at a low speed until combined. Divide dough in half and press half of dough into an even layer on the bottom of the prepared pan. Place chocolate bars over dough. 2 king-sized Hershey’s bars should fit perfectly side by side, but break the chocolate (if necessary) to get it to fit in a single layer no more than 1/4 inch thick. Spread chocolate with marshmallow creme or fluff. Place remaining dough in a single layer on top of the fluff (most easily achieved by flattening the dough into small shingles and laying them together). Bake for 30 to 35 minutes, until lightly browned. Cool completely before cutting into bars.

Makes 16 cookie bars.

MM-MMMM. I SHALL MAKE THEM ON FRI/SUN/MON

Guy whose face is half-blocked with the cool hat is the guy who just opened this shop with 2 other people! Wow so proud of him, the shop looks amazingly trendy hip and it's so cool it intimidates me (just a tiny bit)

On a completely random note, my dad once (accidentally, I think) said:

'Hey why don't you turn on the window and close the fans?'

LOL he says it every time now so recently I just leave my windows open and my fan off so when he walks into my room to check on me, he'll always have a chance to say that.
