I had my very first Big Mac today. In a country saturated with McDonald’s its actually quite an astonishing achievement to have stayed Big Mac Mc Virginal all these years. You know what they say about giving away your special first time right?.  I can take comfort with the fact that I shared it with my special someone.

Ok guys, I’m blogging in the middle of the night not because I’m suffering from insomnia BUT because I’m afraid that I may not be able to get a good night sleep without blogging about this:

My Fiance asked me what sort of answers I had given during one of the 50GP interviews. I proudly recalled my answer to the question of “what was the most flattering thing anyone has ever said to me?”. I told my fiance that it was his comment about me having both “beauty and brains”. As soon as I said it I realised that I had made a silly boo boo during the Razor TV interview and had miss quoted him. I think I said “brains and BRAWN”! I’d like to consider myself brawny in a sporty sense but I actually meant “beauty and brains”.

I guess I was a bit nervous. The worst part is he can’t stop giving me crap about it and keeps pestering me for arm wrestles!

Late night arm wrestling

Pulau Ubin

Date with my trusty Canon camera at Ubin…
My plan: To absorb enough vitamin D and then back to the sunny island with an overflowing amount of endorphins. It didn’t happen that way! Haha…

Captured using Foliage function

My last visit to Ubin was approximately 12 years ago with my family. Revisiting Ubin brought back lovely memories.

I have not seen skeleton leaves since elementary school days! And there were plenty of them scattered all over Ubin. The road sweepers definitely did a wonderful job clearing dead leaves back on sunny island =/

Gone are the days of wasting film and not knowing whether if you have captured a great photo. I’ve chosen to take this photo using the foliage function in my Canon camera – check out the details!

This lizard was moving quite fast through the foliage – Unfriendly!

My favourite shade of blue!

Beautiful sky, lovely day… contentment.

Having a wonderful night out!

 “It takes 22 muscles to smile and 37 muscles to frown” … So SMILE!

A few things to share about me:

Health is my LIFE goal. I strongly believe that with a healthy life, can you fully appreciate what pleasure life brings to you. I am all for ageing gracefully and healthily. Gym and cardio sessions never fails to make me feel in control and how amazing our body is. Not forgetting, the natural high from the endorphins after running.

I enjoy travelling. I’ve travelled to countries near and far. The place I travel to is as important as the company I have. What is the use of travelling when you don’t have anyone to share it with? The aim of every trip is to try to experience however much I can of their local life and tasting local food (minus the exotic ones like grasshoppers, snakes etc) all squeezed into an unbelievably short trip! Haha… I guess I have mastered that quite well now.

I love FOOD! Watch out for photos and recipes of yummy lasagne, claypot chicken rice and honey lemon chicken made by me!

AND I absolutely love the sun, the sea (includes diving!) and the beach!

Till the next entry… enjoy your weekend! =)
