end of 'holiday camp'

today, marks the official end of my 'holiday camp' lasting almost 14 months... holiday camp = stay at in-law's place. my family was backed at Bayshore... except for my youngest daughter cos she still needs to be taken care of until Aug 1st... where off she goes... to MMI together with jie jie Ziyi. i am going to miss: - the daily veg, fruits and nuts' juice that my mother-in-law concocted; - not doing housework; - and of course, her cooking (will try to go back at least twice a week now). but back at home is really good, you have all the freedom to do things. i can play my PS3 till late, leave things a little messy, buy our fav food and binge, not having to 'fight' for the toilet early morning, don't have to pay for season parking, utilise the facilities (pool and gym)... and i think i will reach office early everyday! one month to go and my youngest will be backed with us... i wonder how things will change?!

Kungfu Panda! the movie to remember...

that's not for me to remember but Ziyi (my eldest girl)... her first movie in the cinema... thanks to Nokia for bringing this event to Nokia staff and their family. funny panda... all the animals are so 'cutely' drawn... theme of the movie: nothing is accidental. a good de-stress movie... adults should watch too. Ziyi enjoyed it, laughing her way except for the fighting scenes.

nature's way to good health

often (or as we grow older), we tried to find more and better ways to eat healthy, sleep early, exercise regularly... using moisturizer to protect out skin, anti-ageing cream to clear the wrinkes, hair growth products to aid in darker and healthier hair... are they effective? the recent ad with Jackie Chan as spokeperson for 霸王hair growth products brings credibility to the product... he said he tested the product and it worked! i had been using this Loreal Men's anti-ageing cream and the 'lines' starts to disappear or minimise... been trying to eat less oil, less snacks, more fruits and drink more water... but have not been able to exercise regularly... lately, i came across this book from Dr Tom Wu (吴永志医生), "不一样的自然养生法"... saw this doc at a Taiwan TV program... he has a unique way of living. he was struck with 3rd stage of cancer at age of 30+... diagnosed with few months to live... undetered with the chemo and treatment to stay alive... he decided to change his w

a planned trip to Hong Kong - part 3

my 3rd time to HK and i am still yanking on that country (after 3 weeks)... 1st time to HK was with my sister, jeremy, raymond and my wife (then my girlfriend) plus some frens, i think... 2nd time was after our Korea honeymoon (stopover at HK for 3D2N). shopping in women's street was the same 10 years ago except for the many other shops at the adjacent street and the predominant used of Mandarin compared to Cantonese when we first came... the place was crowded even at 9pm and it seemed to go on forever... eating, drinking and shopping all the way... most of the shops were opened early and closed late... we went into a Bossini shop at 10pm and it was still packed... apparently it opened from 9am and closed at 11.30pm... hardworking bunch... shopping culture was really different from Singapore where we visit shopping centres... most of their outlets/shops were by the roadsides, stretches and stretches of shops down all directions of the roads at kowloon island... really shop till you
