Scorpio Horoscope on 5 March 2008

Michelle,
An apparent setback may prove to be an opportunity in disguise. Since it may be a difficult day for you to get your message across to others, it could be a good idea to take some time out for some mental 'R&R'. If you are finding it hard to get motivated, that's a message from your inner self that you need to rebuild your 'space'.

What an eventful day!!! Sad to say... BADs surpassed the Goods... Feel so cursed manz! Unforgettable...


The GOODs:

---

• William's Birthday
• Cousin Angeline's Birthday
• Tryin to fulfill my promise to mummy (to get a proper employment after CNY) & sent out 6 copies of my CV at a go today! Received a call back in the evening & fixed an interview on this coming friday afternoon! Hmmm.. time to go buy some clothes le... Do wish me luck!

The BADs:

---

• Grandma had an operation today @ KK Hospital.. Hope everything's fine.. Will be paying her a visit at the hospital tomorrow...
• The lil' hamster passed away... sobz.. It's supposed to be recovering and for the past few days, it was even strong enough to return onto its wheel.. exercising on it... Why so sudden...? *sigh*
• Major thrash out... with someone... Things will never be the same again...
• Had a long talk on the phone with someone I'd refrained from all these while... left me congested with doubts...

End is Start

Ever felt suspicious of someone whom is supposedly very close to you, whom you always thought understands you? Always believed that he/she will be the last person who will lie to you yet ended up being proven wrong? When it does happens, what's left...?

How will most people react to such situations? To leave or to stay? Provided the privilege to decide is still in your hands..

Cry bitterly hoping tears have the ability to wash away what's been done? Act casual like it didn't really matter at all whilst silently nursing your wound? Applying Vitamin E oil to it religiously, awaiting the scar to fade off gradually? Calmed down, track back the whole series of happenings & evaluate the relationship as a whole?

Questioning if self is the cause in the first place. Be truthful... cos SELF is the only one in this whole world whom you can take absolute control of. All the rest.. are plainly based on a gamble of insecure changeability GOOD FAITH... Try positioning the same as the other party... Will i do the same if in his/her shoe? If yes, it's considered quite pardonable actually, isn't it? Just a conflict of interests... just that when striked, that "used-to" interest where thought to be lingered elsewhere...

Lookin' on the brighter side, reminded of several meaningful quotes collected... Yes... sometimes it takes to view from a different angle, to situate in a better & happier place for breathing in... What's meant to be, will be... END is START, beginning of new things, everything...

Don't cry because it's over, smile because it happened~

Life is too short
Grudges are a perfect waste of happiness
Laugh when you can
Apologize when you should
And let go of what you can't change
Love deeply & forgive quickly
Take chances.. Give everything
And have no regrets
Life is too short to be unhappy
You have to take the good with the bad
Smile when you are sad
Love what you got
And always remember what you had
Always forgive but never forget
Learn from your mistakes but never regret
People change & things go wrong
But always remember
Life goes on~

E-Submission: Ask A CGH Therapist

Just made an e-submission to Changi General Hospital regarding mum's condition...

Hi,

I would like to check with you, regarding my mum's condition... My mum's hand is very swollen, to the extend she got difficulties bending her fingers. She went for an x-ray & and the cause of it is unknown.. but she's been arranged to undergo an op sometime after CNY, in hope to find out the true cause of it...

At one point, while she was outside, she felt very tiring just by casual walking... to the extend, every few steps she took, she need to stop and rest for a period... she finds it very worrying & seek advise from a Chinese physician. According to the physician, my mum's suffering from water retention. Did some treatment for her & gave her some oral medicine, said to help reduce the water retention. And surprisingly, mum said she felt better!

But 2 days ago, she said that the water retention problem seems to be coming back... and she mentioned tat the physician said that 'westernized acupuncture' sees results faster & better...

Hence, i tried to do some web search & one of the links directed me to the below URL:

http://www.cgh.com.sg/caring/issue88/caring_patient_str2.htm

May i know if there are cases like that of my mum's before? And the link that i was redirected to, do they provide such services (acupuncture for reducing of water retention)? In fact, I'm kind of suspicious that her swollen hands might be due to it too... Please kindly enlighten me. Thanks a million! And, Happy Chinese New Year~


Regards,
Michelle

So worrying.. Sigh*

Horlicks Version Tis X

Before Baking

Freshly out from Oven!

Hee.. Tis x round tried out the Horlicks version of doggie-shaped cookies~

Think I'd realised why i find my previous attempt's cookies bitter liao! Cos, the bite tat i took dun haf the chocolate chip in it (each cookie supposed to haf 4 chocolate chips, including the 'nose')... besides tat, maybe my cookies are bigger sized! The recipe said the yield is ard 48 cookies but i onli managed to make abt half of it ley... like 20+. So each cookie haf more dough yet less chips!! Hmmm... Must be like dat!!

So... Tis time round, i added more chocolates chips into each of them! Whaha!!! 7 in total, including the 'nose'! Although i alady tried to reduce the size.. but still 20+ cookies only ley.. Grrr...!! Dun care!! Anyway since i'd alady punched in double dosage of choco-chips, it should balance up!! Hmmm... Taste better~ But not fantastic yet! If im gonna make it again, i'll add 10!!! whahah!!

The cookies look cuter tis round too!

The previous ones flat-faced de.. and the sides prone to cracks even b4 i put them into the oven... esp after being slightly depressed... So tis x instead of depressing them, i rolled them into balls (reminded me of the pineapple tarts)!! keke.. greatly reduced the cracks lor... and more 3D~ Lookin more like a doggie than the before version~ Yippee!! Cutez!!!

Funny Vegetable Name!

Was wit Joan, Eileen & Mum @ supermarket when out of a sudden, Joan stopped to look at the below pic.. When we realised wat she's lookin at.. all laughed like hell! BTW, MACHO Joan was the one who took tis pic... haha..

Can you see wat we see?? Hee...

The sign is actually trying to illustrate a kind of vegetable (left pic) named as Chinese White Cabbage / Bok Choy / Nai Bai Cai. Also, nicknamed as "Pa Bor Cai".


The Funny Part!!

This "Pa Bor Cai" in hokkien means BEAT WIFE VEGETABLE - There was a lil' story about this vegetable. (The characteristic of this vegetable: Uncooked, it's big but when it's cooked, it shrinks drastically!!)

"Encyclopedia-Joan" says...

In the past there was this couple... One day, the wife cooked a dish of this vegetable for the husband... When the husband saw this dish, he was very angry, thinking that the wife must have committed adultery and scooped out a portion, saving it for her lover!! As guessed, this stupid husband beat up his wife.. Tat's why from then on, it's nicknamed as "Pa Bor Cai" - BEAT WIFE VEGETABLE!! Hahah..



See the chinese words in the blue circle??? PA BAI CAI - translated in chinese it's SCARED OF WHITE VEGETABLE!!!! *lol


Did U manage to catch the humor & understand wat were we laughing at???
