The 28th Birthday Post.

Presents fall in! *drum rolls*

First, a tie and a pair of cufflinks from my parents!


Next, a Levis Tee from my sister! Its the same design I wanted to buy the day before, only that this is a darker shade of blue than the one I wanted.


And a pair of portable speakers from my dear! I think they look really groovy!


Finally, a pair of really fantastic earphones and Kino vouchers from my buncha great buddies (yes, both items are from my wish list!)!!



My good friend asked me whether I was abit disappointed with the gifts as it was no surprise. I told her, I wasn't a little disappointed at all. In fact, I am really happy to receive them. It is okay even if there isn't any presents cuz it is already so wonderful to have so many people to celebrate my birthday. Next year... no need presents for me le okay? ;op

Taking pictures with those who gave me the nice presents!



So what did we do? We did one of my favourite activity, KTV! For the four hours, I hogged the mic most of the time! In between we cut the cake!


Chocolate Passion Cake!


And giving out the cake! It was like giving out prizes hor? Hee.


You can imagine how late it was after the KTV, the cake wasn't really big. Everyone was famished, especially Stitchy-Sop! She was thinking of eating up 阿豆 for dinner!


Luckily, with the suggestion of my dear, we stumbled upon the Chiang Mai Palace at China Square Central. It was authentic Thai food buffet style! Really delicious. Yum Yum!! No pictures, but I remember the Tom Yum, Fried Tofu with Red Sauce, and this Beancurd Skin with Egg thingy, were all really good. Nice mango pudding for everyone to wrap up the dinner! But that wasn't the end yet!

We took a nice stroll to this bar at SMU, a cozy place which XTT-KC and I found some weeks ago. Along the way, people had nice chat, let the food digest, and dear got plenty of information about choosing of Bridal package. Beers for the guys and magarita for the ladies. Well, I had to try out the magarita too cuz beer was too boring me!

Once again, like always, I would like to shout out my deep felt appreciation to everyone. Life is never the same with you around me! -deep deep bow-

The Bridal Dowry.

The delivery of dowry ( 送嫁妆 ) is another important custom. It represents parent's effort for her daughter to have a good life after marriage and prepare her with the necessities for being a good wife. I am amazed by some of the things included in the dowry. Of course, in our modern living, we will not be using some of those things... Nevertheless, I think it is all good to have them, as each item carries a good meaning for our blissful marriage. :-)

If you have it, just flaunt it.

Its such a lousy day, I have decided to blog another entry. Yesh, I am thinking about things other than my last two papers on Thurs and Friday. Something probably talked alot before by many people... What is it with men and women with 可爱-oooii *杨丞琳's voice* face, long tresses, slim legs, curvey body, in revealing tight clothes (only for those with the former characteristics), in pink. Why are men so attracted to those features? The guy is lying if he says he will not turn his head when he sees women with those features. I think it has nothing to do with men being lustful or anything disgusting. It probably has something to do with the genes, the hormones. I don't believe it has to do with things like its men's nature instinct to look for partners who can reproduce blahblahblah. That's so boring! Its something mysterious, something that let men derives pleasure by just looking openly, without doing anything bad or harmful or immoral. Do women ogle at men all the time too...

What Do You Think?

What makes a good leader? Some will say a good leader is someone who can bring the best out of his/her people. How do you bring the best out of his/her people? Some will say by giving pointers and guidance.  How do you give pointers and guidance? Some will talk. In fact, most will just talk.  I think a good leader should be someone who walk the talk, not just talk. A good leader gets his/her hands dirty to show his/her people the way. Some may say this is spoon-feeding. I think otherwise. For example, if your staff ask you for guidance on work, most bosses would dispense some wise words, "Do this, look out for this, highlight this...". At the end of the day, the staff will come back to the bosses with the work and bosses will say, "no no, do this, not that". I would think a good leader should draft out the frame on the actual work (may it be slides or documents), then dispense his words of wisdom. The staff will do his/her thinking along that frame and f...
