What to do when I die

A couple of weeks ago, I read an article on people planning their funeral beforehand. That inspired me to do the same.
I don't want my funeral to be of any religion, well, because my relationship with God is personal. My funeral is not a place for religious people to shove their beliefs down people's throat.
I want my funeral to be a party. There needs to be yummy comfort food and drinks, live band to play my favorite songs and my guests dressed in bright colours, please.
I would like my photos to be displayed all around so that people could see and reminisce the times we spent together. They will know that I may not be physically around anymore but our memories live on and may the impact I left in their lives continue forever.
Right now at this stage of my life, I wouldn't say I'm afraid of death but I'm not ready to leave my beloved family and friends yet. I still have much yet to be done and I need to stay alive to complete them. Yup, I'll stay very alive, no worries.

Disappointing

Have you ever had that feeling of looking forward to something and then BAMWHAM!!! that something just didn't happen afterall..?
It is such a lousy feeling. I've been looking forward to supper with my ❤. For the whole day, I ate very little cos we agreed on going for steamboat supper. Then, when night came, we decided not to have steamboat cos his friends wanted to have it tomorrow night. Fine, so let's have something else. So, I'm hungry and dirty as I planned to shower only after I return from supper. Thus, we decided on zi char near home.
Who knows...our Lil Sophie refused to sleep till just now. So ❤ said that he'll just dabao back home. Imagine my disappointment...I expected steamboat then took quite a while to changed my mind to zi char...then now say not going out for supper, I've anticipated for the whole day looking forward to supper date night with my ❤. Worse still...going to dabao Indian food which I don't eat.
Now...I'm having 一肚子的火。老娘现在又累又饿又脏...气到...我头好疼哦... ARRGGHHH!!! 😠

Maybelline Lip Flush Bitten Lip

Alright, new makeup, AGAIN.

This time I got 3 for the price of 2! So, I got these three colours. OR01, RD03 and PK02. 



I like the moisturising texture of these lipstick. And the fact that I don't need to blend out lip product for the gradient lip effect really won my vote. 
Here are the lip stick swatches!
If you wanna go for a pop art look, then get the PK02, the pink is super outstanding.
OR01 definitely goes well with our Asian skin colour and portrays a very subtle yet refreshing look. 
My fave will definitely be RD03!!! The colour and gradient effect are natural, not as "barbie" as its pink counterpart. 

So, I got all three for 33.80SGD at Guardian Pharmacy as they have the "3for2" sale right now. If not, you can also get it at 14.90SGD each at Watson's.

UPDATES!!!

Ok, updates. *blows away the dust from this blog*

What can I say? The last time I posted here...was 2 years ago, before my daughter was born. Yups, that was a loooooonnnnnng time ago. I celebrated my 3rd wedding anniversary. My daughter is turning 2 years old in about 1.5 months. I went back to work in year 2015 and left the service in year 2016. Ohhh yaasss...I QUIT!!! FINALLY!!! MUAHAHAHAHA!!!

Yes, I am very happy that I quit my job as a MOE teacher. But I turned to tutoring, which is teaching as well. However, I think I'll go back to getting a job next year. I need colleagues and a purpose to wake up to everyday. This time, I'm gonna be a translator. Like, a legit one, not a freelance but a full-time translator. 

I realised I WANT to be an OL. I want to wake up everyday, put on my makeup, decide on my work wear and walk in my high heels with my staff pass hanging on my neck. Then, gather with my colleagues during lunch time, wallet and mobile phone in my hand, deciding what to eat for lunch. I want to gather in conference room or pantry for meeting, with a cuppa and scheduler in my hand. Then, sit in my cubicle and typing away furiously, editing the ridiculous translations that computers generated and emailing them to my team mates.

OMG! I am feeling excited just imagining these! Of course, after work I'll rush home to spend some time with my daughter. Then, Friday nights and weekends will be reserved for my precious loved ones. Just the thought of living the above mentioned pumps me with adrenaline. Working alone and being self-employed/freelance isn't something I want in a long run. I need a team, colleagues to work and gossip with. I need a purpose/occasion to put on makeup and dress up nicely, WORK is the best excuse and motivation!

Of course there'll be sacrifices to be made but I know what I want and need, so, yes I've made up my mind to work in a company, with colleagues, salary and benefits. Thanks. >,<
