nicknames

A nickname is a name, any kind of name, that one is called in place of one’s real name. Some nicknames are affectionate phrases used to describe a person. Some are shortened or altered from one's true name. They can be funny, cute, feminine/ masculine or annoying but most of the time easy to remember!

SOme can get more than just one nickname. Ms fragile, Ms Strong, Ms Cry Baby, Ms Moody, Ms Blur, Ms Sunshine. you might like the last one the best but that maybe not the most well remembered nick for you.

"Stay On the Road" by Corrinne May

Don't turn your laughing eyes away
You know I love you
There's no need to be afraid
Hearts are made to be broken
They get stronger by the day
I'll take a chance and drop all my defenses
Just to hear you say

How long is the road
How long is the ride
How long is the darkness till we get to the light
Go easy on me
Cause you already know
No matter the distance
I'll stay on the road to your heart

You say I've been a fool too long
You wonder why I have the strength to carry on
I see through your weakness
Your tough guy iron mask
It's not really that hard or complicated
There's no need to ask

How long is the road
How long is the ride
How long is the darkness till we get to the light
Go easy on me
Cause you already know
No matter the distance I'll stay on the road to your heart
I'll stay on the road to your heart
I'll stay on the road to your heart

no star day

i endured quite well today.. but poor w****e was frightened by the ugly side of me..

as usual.. rushing things ~ meeting postponed ~ printer jammed ~ stressed out ~ anger that caused my red flushed face...

i said i felt like killing ppl.

W****e said i said that 4 times.

i can be better i beliv. stop scaring ur poor innocent neighbour u bad bad bad colik.. i m hoping to earn a star tomoro. ganbatte.

Ms Strong

am i really too energetic lately?

i m supposed to be sleeping by now but i just wanna write down all the things happened just now while the memories are stil fresh.

well, sunday morning i did a 10k run, and one step class. ok half step class coz we were late. the next day i went to pump & another step continuously. to be honest, i dun feel tired.

Just like last week, i wanted to go pump in the morning but sleeping bug took over me.. so i repacked my gym bag & went to the 745pm pump at orchard branch instead. the unfrenly branch =.=

The studio was almost full even i was there 5min earlier. i think members there are really KIASU. I was like the latest one. maybe tat's also y i dun see the hyper active girl going to tat class coz she'll be reaching 5 10 min later most of the time which i dun think she can get a space at all.

ok, back to just now, i managed to find a space & started setting up my weights & all. There was this woman diagonally in front of me on the right, turned to me and said: "you should not set your board here, i dun have enough space to do lunges." with her unhappy facial expression. SUCH A BITCH!

i wish i had a camera & if i had i would have taken the pic of the surrounding in the studio. she had AMPLE space OKAY.. anyway i couldn't be bothered to even answer her. i shifted my board a little to the back. i was telling myself, pls dun be affected by a bitch. i know i was affected a little coz i m just human... imagined if this happened 8 years ago, i would have ran to the changing room & cried. yea, i know.. it's not very attractive.. reacting in tat manner...but i was like tat.. i m glad i m a stronger person now :D

i pity tat woman.. so selfish so ugly... i was feeling a lot better when the instructor said: dun care about other ppl, it's ur own workout! WOW that was the only good thing i wanted to hear just now. Dun care about the BITCH, enjoy ur workout! anyway this was not the first time i had bad experience at orchard branch. This is life! you have to learn to live w it in this whole wide world with all kinds of rojak ppl :P

after pump, i continued w Step which was fun! i enjoyed it!

i felt great after the workout & m as happy as a kid now ^_^

Mizuno Mt Faber Run

i don't know when exactly i found passion in running.. previously, and i m quite sure in 2007, i still hated running. i am always quite active in sports since secondary school days, from swimming, hiking, brisk walking, cycling to diving.. running was always my last alternative. Now, not only i found joy in running, i think i m addicted in joining all the competitive races!

hmmmm.. maybe i can describe running as Cinderalla? and i m the handsome prince. Cinderalla loses her glass slippers and when the prince finds her and then falls in love with her.. OMG sounds so odd. ok forget it..

Let's recall my run last Sunday morning. It's interesting to join another run which i've never tried the route before. ok, below is the pic of the race route for me to remember



well, it's a 10km race just like sundown. but it's actually a lot more challenging becoz the routes were rather hilly. so i predict my timing will not be better than sundown. Long-distance races can really train our minds to be stronger. of coz physically too. It's also a race between your mind and your body. If your mind is stronger than your body, (and with proper training) you can definitely complete the race with good timing. I stopped a few time especially when it's uphill.. i tot if i dun stop i'll be out of breath..yea such a procrastinator..

managed to take just 3 photos during the run.







look who's the one in blue hehe. she wont know coz she dun have me blog :D

i quite like the whole journey especially the Mount Faber park area. it's very scenic! the organiser could not close the affected roads but they engaged some traffic police men to control the moving vehicals. so when the cars passed us the air wasn't very fresh lo...but they provided sufficient water supply to the runners with 3 water points. not too bad.

after the run, me & lynn went to have our 2nd round breakfast at Mc D with another fren who took part too. He clocked a fantastic 56min.

Later part of the day was very much like having another race. How shud i call it? the MCC amazing race (me so creative huh? hee...) coz Ms Naughthy forgot to bring her keys and was locked outside her house. I rushed to city hall just to meet up with her housemate (who walked from the crowded PC fair at suntec to pass me the keys). When i reached Toa Payoh, it's already 10min to 4pm. we would be really late for our usual step class which is at 4. and I was perspiring all the way. amazing! when we reached cali it's already 4:20.. gosh.. got in the class looked at the clock showing at 4:25pm. what a record!

when my fren knew i went to gym after the run, he said i was powered by energizer. i was thinking hmmmm.. maybe huh

S.H.E - 最近还好吗?

S.H.E 你最近还好吗
斗牛,要不要片尾曲

挑一张耶诞卡写上满满祝福的话
地址写的是心底 你能不能收到它
天有点冷 风有点大 城市宁静而喧哗
这一个冬天我得一个人走回家
问自己习惯了吗
没有你每到夜裏回声变得好大
有没有什麽好方法让寂寞更听话
你最近还好吗 是不是也在思念里挣扎
你说会记得我 还记得吗
你最近还好吗
忙碌吗累吗 心还会痛吗
如果真不得已忘了我
快向快乐出发
有再多的牵挂都已没有权利表达
旧情人给的问候令陌生人都还尴尬
昨天远了 明天还长 回忆模糊但巨大
这样的深夜眼泪要怎样不流下
问自己习惯了吗
没有你每到夜裏回声变得好大
有没有什麽好方法让寂寞更听话
你最近还好吗 是不是也在思念里挣扎
你说会记得我 还记得吗
你最近还好吗
忙碌吗累吗 心还会痛吗
如果真不得已忘了我
快向快乐出发
你最近还好吗 是不是也在思念里挣扎
你说会记得我 还记得吗
你最近还好吗
忙碌吗累吗 心还会痛吗
如果真不得已忘了我
快向快乐出发

ordinary day

was out of office the whole day today.. was at woodlands.. this morning the taxi uncle's driving skill was err.. i think worse than me.. i felt i was going to throw up after reaching.. well.. it's just another working day at client's office..

received this piece from my ex classmate from JCS. it's not easy but let's try to work towards this idea :)

Embracing Imperfection

"When I was a little girl, my mom liked to make breakfast food for dinner every now and then. And I remember one night in particular when she had made breakfast after a long, hard day at work. On that evening so long ago, my mom placed a plate of eggs, sausage, and extremely burnt toast in front of my dad.

I remember waiting to see if anyone noticed! Yet all my dad did was reach for his toast, smile at my mom, and ask me how my day was at school. I don't remember what I told him that night, but I do remember watching him smear butter and jelly on that toast and eat every bite!

When I got up from the table that evening, I remember hearing my mom apologize to my dad for burning the toast. And I'll never forget what he said: 'Baby, I love burnt toast.'

Later that night, I went to kiss Daddy good night and I asked him if He really liked his toast burned. He wrapped me in his arms and said, 'Debbie, your Momma put in a hard day at work today and she's real tired. And besides-a little burnt toast never hurt anyone!' You know, life is full of imperfect things...and imperfect people. I'm not the best housekeeper or cook.

What I've learned over the years is that learning to accept each other’s faults - and choosing to celebrate each other’s differences - are the one of the most important keys to creating a healthy, growing, and lasting relationship.

We could extend this to any relationship in fact - as understanding is the base of any relationship, be it a husband-wife or parent-child or friendship!
