starbucks
the smell of coffee..
rather heavenly,
yet
i was never a fan of coffee
4 oldies
2 newbies
1 pink man
5 dull girls
i see starbucks sprouting everywhere
it s really a place for conversation
much less a place for coffee.
and i cant believe it.
the playing-cards-inspired IR is gonna be up by 2008.
luxury retailing and
super luxury retailing.
better earn more money.

5 languages of love
well..
heard this from zeng-san
very interesting to me..
so i shall share this...
i guess whether you're in or not in a relationship
you'll learn something from this...
getting to know each other better
the 5 languages of love
1. words --- things the person say, sms, etc
2. physical affection --- hugs, kisses, patting you to slp, etc
3. gift giving --- buying presents, noticing things that you like, etc
4. quality time --- doing things both enjoy, quite difficult to define
5. service --- massaging, cooking, teaching, carrying stuff, etc
these are the five main languages in which people show their love..
so there's two aspect to consider: giving and receiving..
giving= how you show your love
receiving= how you would feel loved
so what you're suppose to do:
a. rank them for the both aspect
b. compare results with your partner
c. analyse the results
i guess this will serve to let you see each others' languages
and learn how to show your love in his/her language
even if not able to,
at least appreciate the difference..
never knew there was such things.......
and i though zeng-san only talk cock.
oOps.
interesting...

anyway,
read this.
What's happening in your life?
Are you so busy working working working, running running running, seeing seeing seeing, that you've forgotten the lovely art of just being at home? And is your home beginning to forget its role as your nest? Things outside the home seem to be getting more attention. Funny how we've succeeded in putting a dog into space, yet still struggle to take care of the muddy paws at home. Why is that? Are you too preoccupied with the extravagant and extraordinary, while real life is actually something that's happening right here, right now? True quality if life isnt really about the universe and its stars, but rather your world called home. So let's together, create a home that helps you calm your life down. It's time to start living in the true world. At home.
totally loved that paragraph.
and i read it at home.
anyway, got it from ikea.
heart warming.
their annual catalogue is here!
i love to do home deco
are you interested too?
i really love to design.

feel the need to get my own house and car.
not that i can drive.
i want to settle down.
scary, isnt it?
i've neglected my home.
my room.
used to pack it every other day
but it's been a mess these months.
bad.
at least i managed to clean up my wardrobe.
it's clean now!
neater.
and i realised i got lots of clothes.
really ridiculous.
ok.not ridiculous.
but well.
seems more than enough.
yet.
i wouldnt mind more.
but like you said..if i hadnt spent that amount on clothes,
i would now be rather well off.
i would say
however,
is the shoes that i spent the most on.
i simply cant resist.
and guess what.
now i have two pairs less.
mum spoilt one for me.
so this week two pairs down.
feel the need to get down to somewhere green to just take in fresh air
to breathe proper
enough of urban settings
and
i am so happy that we've finally managed to simplify things
b1 b2 b3.
woohoo!
