Potently Poisoned by you...
Monday, December 28, 2009
I’m at the starbucks opposide Isetan Shaw Orchard.. the first starbucks we’ve went together.. the place where we first went for our first date, remember? The first Sandy’s concert that we went together. Where we met at borders, made a circle around the escalator and 发现我们又回到了原点in a rather awkward manner. So as we were early, we decided to find a place to sit down and decided on this starbucks.. that’s where you went to buy the first Green Tea Frapp for me.. and discovered, (and hopefully) still remember that my fave drink is Starbucks Green Tea Frapp..
Have not seen you for 357 天了。。 而突然间,在短短的一个星期内,看到了你两次。。 而且还与你一起度过了接近13小时。。 that’s more than half a day.. I’m so happie..
Mr Sim, 还以为,在这357天,对你的感觉已经淡了。。 没想到,你一回来,却把我思绪全都又搞砸了。。realized that I’m still hopelessly liking you.. Why? I wonder why..
Nonetheless, I must blog down the 295 mins that we spent together on 21st Dec 09, and the 630 mins on X’mas.
21st Dec 09
It all started when I was helping up in moving the office. Sitting in the training room with nothing better to do, and was looking at how I should plan my schduele for the following week, i decided to give you a call to chk when you will want to have the X'mas gathering.. Cos i really don't wish to miss it, but looking at my schduler, I'm scared that I can't cater the time out should it clashes with my other gatherings.. and thus, on 14th Dec 09, at 1pm, made a call to you to ask instead.. haha.. 好不要脸。。 when i realised you're having lunch with Susu jie.. felt rather sad.. this tells me how much i meant to you.. nothing.. back for so many days.. dining with a common friend who also asked you to buy something back.. and yet, didn't contact me at all.. do you really don't wana see me at all? anniway, thankfully for the USD 95 crest.. i got to mt you one time before the actual X'mas gathering.. 原本只是5 mins 的passing of things, 变成了breakfast meeting, 而thankfully 成为了一个noon meeting, whereby although I'm not privileged to have lunch with you yet, I got to do my X'mas shopping with you! ALONE! I was totally totally happie!
Remembered while I was still waiting for my nails to dry, at about 130 or so, received your sms telling me that you've reached.. quickly, i called you to confirm where you are and wanted to rush over there immediately.. 还记得while i was inside the Orchard Centeral lift, i told myself.. "Sindy, remember to breathe, 呼吸,呼吸".. haha.. i was so scare I will forget to breathe.. running over from Orchard Centeral to 313.. moving up the stairs to level 3 to find you.. and finally seeing you.. with you hair gelled to the side, and in the pink checker shirt.. waiting outside the junction for me, looking at ur iphone, without noticing that I've reached.. it totally blow my breathe away.. blow all my beings away.. my thots, my presence, my logic, my everything.. all i wanted to do is to run up to you and hug you.. but of cos.. i held back again.. i'm really thankful that you didn't noticed me so that I can slowly make my way to your front, and during all the while, feast my eyes at you.. even when i finally stand rite in front of you, you almost didn't notice me.. haha.. thereafter, 陪你一起经Uniqlo to look at winter wear.. it was as thou that this year of being apart didn't change annithing at all! it's so easy to just stand there and hear you talk! telling me what you thot.. how snobbish you are, what a wonderlife lifestyle you had at NY! occasionally I just repeat what you say, occasionally I would just contradict you in jest, occasionally, I would look at you in the eyes and ask why this why that..
Argh.. 好好好好好幸福啊!
thereafter, we went out of 313.. and he was so cute when he was standing at the middle of the mall, trying to determine should he turn left or rite to walk.. cos he wasn't sure of his bearings.. so i luffed, and lead him out to the streets, and at that moment, he told me "Sindy, 你好像瘦了".. wau.. i could have die of happiness then.. haha.. so i guess i look positive in front of him bah.. then when we stepped out, he said that he wana eat the street style ice cream.. and he paid for my share too..
i was secretly hoping that he have brought his camera out so that i can hopefully take a photo of him.. and he realli did.. so i said, tv, since you're a tourist, do you have camera to take photos, and he took it out.. and as we make out way to taka to take the take x'mas tree, i helped him to snap one with the tree.. and he helped me to take one too!! and he knelt down on one knee to do so! as thou it's like a proposal style! haha.. 幸福的快要死掉了啦!
SIM TZE VIN!! I love you!!!!!!

How Far?
"How far can I travel?" asked one of the eaglets.
"How far can you see?" responded the Master Eagle.
"How high can I fly?" quizzed the young eaglet.
"How far can you stretch your wings?" asked the old eagle.
"How long can I fly?" the eaglet persisted.
"How far is the horizon?" the mentor rebounded.
"How much should I dream?" asked the eaglet.
"How much can you dream?" smiled the older, wiser eagle.
"How much can I achieve?" the young eagle continued."
How much can you believe?" the old eagle challenged.
Frustrated by the banter, the young eagle demanded, "Why don't you answer my questions?"
"I did.""Yes. But you answered them with questions."
"I answered them the best I could."
"But you're the Master Eagle. You're supposed to know everything.
If you can't answer these questions, who can?""You." The old wise eagle reassured."Me? How?" the young eagle was confused."No one can tell you how high to fly or how much to dream. It's different for each eagle. Only God and you know how far you'll go. No one on this earth knows your potential or what's in your heart. You alone will answer that. The only thing that limits you is the edge of your imagination."
The young eagle puzzled by this asked, "What should I do?"
"Look to the horizon, spread your wings, and fly."

Skin
Zero pores. Freckle-free. Porcelain smoothness. Who doesn't dream of having a flawless, healthy complexion? Read on for our top skincare tips that'll get your skin glowing in the pink of health.
Hygiene
Back to basics: A great complexion starts with clean skin. Here's how to keep it that way.
Wash your face twice a day with a suitable cleanser for your skin type. If your skin is sensitive, choose a gentle cleanser that is free of fragrance and harsh irritants. If you have acne-prone skin, look for an oil-free face wash with anti-acne medications to prevent future breakouts.
Know when and how to pop a pimple. Leave your zits alone! Don't pick at them or you could risk infection and scarring. If your pimple is showing head and looks ready to pop, it's okay to gently extract the contents to aid your skin's healing process, but make sure you know the correct way to pop a pimple safely – with clean hands.
Keep your makeup brushes and sponges clean by washing them with soap and warm water once a week or every other week. Every now and then, clear out the old makeup and stock up on new ones – most cosmetics have an average shelf life of 6 to 12 months.
Moisturize your skin, especially if you're holed up inside an air-conditioned workplace everyday. Air-conditioning strips your skin of moisture quickly, so keep your skin hydrated with a moisturizer and prevent chapped lips with a lip balm.Rejuvenate your skin with a weekly treatment. Choose an exfoliant and face mask that suits your skin needs. For example, if your skin tends to be dehydrated, look for an emollient scrub and moisturizing mask; if you have oily skin, choose an effective exfoliant and purifying mask to help remove the excess sebum.
Use sun protection. With so many sunscreen products on the shelves today, there's absolutely no excuse for sun-damaged skin. Protect yourself from the sun's harmful UV rays using a sunscreen with at least SPF 15.
Listen to your skin. Our skin is a living organ, and like all living things, its needs can change over time. When we age, when we relocate to a place with a different climate, or even when we have a change of working environment, our skin condition can change in response to several factors, so it's essential to review your skincare products – when your usual products aren't working as well as they used to, it's time to start shopping for new ones.
Don't neglect your elbows, heels, neck and decolletage. Many of us don't pay enough attention to these areas, but they're prone to dryness and need moisturizing.
Eat well-balanced meals. Good nutrition is so important to your skin's health that if you fall even a tad short of certain nutrients, you're likely to see some skin-related symptoms. Biotin, for example, is a nutrient that forms the basis of skin, nail and hair cells, and deficiency can lead to dermatitis (an itchy, scaly skin reaction). Vitamins C and E act as antioxidants by reducing the damage caused by free radicals, while vitamin A is necessary for the maintenance and repair of skin tissue.
Get your beauty rest. Frequent late-nights can cause your skin to suffer. Sleep is the time when the skin repairs itself, so make sure you are getting enough zzs every night.
Quit smoking. Smoking dramatically impairs blood circulation under the surface of the skin. That's why smokers' skin looks dry, dull and gray. Free radicals from the smoke also oxidizes the skin, accelerating the skin's aging process.
Get active. Exercise boosts blood circulation and keeps your skin glowing with health. Aim for a minimum of 30 minutes of workout at least 3 to 4 times a week.
Stay happy. Emotional stress can traumatize skin. Learning to unwind with calming techniques such as practising yoga or meditation or just listening to relaxing music not only helps lift your spirits, it'll benefit your skin too!
9 Steps to Fight Skin Ageing
To effectively counter skin ageing, your anti-ageing skincare product must simultaneously treat all the 9 effects of ageing:

Reduce visible pigmentation and age spots
Brighten skin, making it more youthful and evenly-toned
Reduce dark circles and bags in the under-eye area
Tighten skin pores
Improve firmness of the skin
Improve overall smoothness of the skin
Prevent further signs of ageing
Chosing the best Mask for my Skin
Masks for Oily or Acne-Prone Skin
Choose Purifying Masks. These types of masks draw out impurities and are the perfect choice for purging dirt and grime for oily and combination skin types. Commonly made of mud and clay, they help to tighten your skin tone as they dry, and ridding excess sebum. Look out for antiseptic ingredients to help treat skin problems especially if you're prone to breakouts.
Masks: Mud, Clay, Deep Cleansing, Clarifying, Purifying, Cooling.

Usage: Wear until the mask dries completely, or as directed, then rinse off with warm water.
Masks for Dry Skin
Choose Hydrating Masks. Hydrating masks hydrate and replenish moisture in dry skin, making dehydrated skin cells soft and supple and reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Go for richer formulas such as cream masks if you have very dry or mature skin.

Choose Exfoliating Masks. Natural plant ingredients work as exfoliants by sloughing off dead surface cells and dirt. The dull surface skin layer is exfoliated to reveal brighter, more radiant-looking skin.

心動
原來就住在我心底 陪伴著我的呼吸
有多遠的距離 以為聞不到你氣息
誰知道你背影這麼長 回頭就看到你
過去讓它過去 來不及 從頭喜歡你
白雲 纏繞著藍天 如果不能夠永遠走在一起
也至少給我們懷念的勇氣 擁抱的權利
好讓你明白 我心動 的痕跡
總是想再見你 還試著打探你 消息
原來你就住在我的身體 守護我的回憶
