*e@g|3 Evolution*

I've been hearing this song on radio since some time ago. Finally, I went online to search for the video. So, in case u're like me who hasn't really watch TV for the longest time & has not seen this video before, watch it right here right NOW!! -Brought to you by your friendly blog owner, Eagle Ivan- Let's CHEER for Singapore together!!! Wohoo!! Go Singapore, You Are The One!!! v(^_^)o Oh yeah Oh yeah Oh yeah Hey Oh yeah Oh yeah Oh yeah Ho

Qiqi sang 《没那么简单》 DOUBLE POWER UP my Saturday Night Fever!!! It was a last min decision to go Lunar with zhuyin & zhuyi! Well, almost 90% of the times we went there unplanned though. =) If you folks have been following my blog close enough, u wld have know that I admire this particular singer in Lunar who resemble Shino (not in looks but the live performance style) when I first saw her performed on stage. Here's a photo I "stole" from Qiqi's Facebook to show you hw exactly does she look like! Left to right : Sisi, Betty, QIQI & Aaliyah! The lady who kept me mesmerized at Lunar all these while & make my ears & face turned red within 3 secs for all the 3 times she sat at our table after finished with singing her set. Stayed till 3am+ nearly 4am on Sat night. =) Uncle Ivan & his nephew, ZY!!! I shld visit this little boy more 2 let him be more familiar with me. He cries e'time I go near him. OMG! And it's those loud wailing type. *faints* So I...

This is it. . . This decision was 1 of the troubling factor. I had been thinking of the pros & cons of selling off my wifey. It's 1 of the few items I owned by paying with my own $$. The cost of the bike & all its maintenance fees. Being the very spoilt child I was since young, I nv really hafta pay for my possessions. My parents always go all out to get me wat I want & I noe both of them are pretty bias towards me. =P Though I still love the feeling of riding on my bike, going anywhere & everywhere with it, the convenience of vrooming out on it no matter hw last min my friends call for a meet up, the ease of wheezing in b/w traffic when I'm running late & so much more, I have make up my decision to let it go. I have BIGGER plans & these required alittle sacrifices like selling off my bike. And so, I'm doing all this for the better part of MY life. If all goes well, Mon - 3rd May would be the day to bid her farewell. Goodbye, my dear wifey! =(

I badly needed a therapy. So, I started off the wkends by visiting Baby Kaelyn again with the piggies! This is PEACE! v(^_^)o If only I can slp as soundly & peaceful as her. . . Returned to Gpa's hse for a surprise! Gpa's cat has a new batch of kittens!! =) Even Qiqi who was v.afraid of the cats said the kittens were cute! The siblings, they response to us when we whistle to them. =P Prata & teh tarik always taste the NICEST back in BP! More therapy sessions required!!! =)

Kaelyn is now 1 mth old!! Congrats to the Loonies! v(^_^)o Though petite, she's powerful. Her punches & kicks are full of strength. May she grow up 2b a strong (but not violent) girl in terms of physical, emotional & spiritual. Of coz, may she enjoys her growing up process with so much TLC from her parents, grandparents & COUNTLESS aunties & uncles ard her. Be a good girl, esp to ur mum. =) After all, going thru pregnancy with those dizzy spells & constant vomiting, for some1 being taken care by every1 ard her to start learning hw to take care of another, it's nt as easy as u having to learn ABC in time to come. So, be appreciative of her sacrifices for u. =P I don't know abt u readers out there, but babies are 1 of my source for HAPPINESS. Seeing them makes me happy. Even if they start wailing at the top of their voice & leave me helplessly trying to calm them down. Their innocence, purity & cuteness of every little actions they do help lift my ...

WARNING : The title said it all, this is gona be a VERY negative & random entry! Exit NOW if you must! I always believe I'm the SUNSHINE in almost all the cliques I'm in, so I make a silent promise to myself nt to write sad entries in my blog (except for the sad stories or songs I composed) as I wld influence my readers in a negative way. However, if I don't blog this down, I've nowhere to vent it out. Pardon me, my dear readers. I promised to get better after finishing this entry. =) But these few days, I'm unhappy. It's an understatement, but I can't find a more suitable word yet. If you didn't managed to sense it even when u're seeing me e'day , that's b'coz Star Awards are coming & I was hoping I can get the Best Male Lead award. Long time ago, an online stranger msg me thru a social networking website, "Hey! I click on ur profile to check u out coz u have very kind eyes!" haha =P I was flattered of coz ...

Over the wkends, I was having lunch with my mum & sis at CWP's foodcourt. An unpleasant incident at the foodcourt initiated a discussion b/w me & my sis. Just where has S'poreans' manners go to? Or, is it they no longer teach "Good Citizens aka 好公民" in schs anymore? Perhaps, they really don't. Coz I've left sch since so long ago, syllabus prob has changed. But still, y aren't some of these ppl taught basic manners? Education levels of Singaporeans are going up, yet our consideration level has remain an all time low. Then, after lunch, we went separate ways to run some errands. Going down the escalator was a BIG nightmare. I HATE ppl who stand in the middle of the escalators or couples who hold hands and blocked the whole passage way. Wat's so diff with remembering the KEEP TO YOUR LEFT rule?! I'm nt saying like couples can't hold hands or parents can't hold the kids' hands on the escalator. But, can u have the basic manners ...

Hey peeps! Have you done e-filing for ur tax? If not, don't risk getting fine. Click here now! -Gentle reminder from your friendly blog owner, Eagle Ivan!-

I was out for lunch on Fri with afew of my colleagues. We went back to my car to see this car blocking our way! Waited under the sun for a whole 15mins before the driver came back with her maid to shift the car! ARGH! Can't these ppl be more considerate or at least have the brains to park somewhere else? On a happier note, I went kite flying on Sat with buddy & CL at Marina Barrage! My budget kite which costs only $1.80! =) As long as it can fly, it's a good kite, right? (^^,) If u ever flew a kite b4, u wld noe the beginning is the toughest part of the whole process. But it's not as difficult as u thought lah. =P As I was flying my kite, some thoughts came to mind. (Well, I always think alot anyway.) Many things we do in life can be compared to kite flying. The initial process is always tough. However, if we can get by that initial stage, we wld be able to enjoy the fruits of success. I'm nt sure abt others, but the feeling of holding the thread to my kite is satis...

I need to vent it somewhere. . . Had been thinking of it since I sent out the sms. . . Today, I did sth bad or rather not very nice. Dun start asking me wat, why, when, where or how. No excuse wld make up a gd reason, I'm just sorry to the party(ies) involved. It's the first time & will be the very last. I wld never do it again. The feeling of guilt is so strong. It's still linger like how I wld have smelled after being in a room of 1,000 smokers. (Nth against smokers, juz a description.)

All thanks to Dave, I got to watch this WONDERFUL, MARVELLOUS & ENERGISED concert!!! This is the 3rd Sammi's concert I've watched & it's still as POWERFUL as ever!!! Wohoo!! Like I've always been telling my friends, all my 3 ex-gfs were Cantonese yet I didn't master a single level of Cantonese from them. But, I swear if my 4th gf is a Cantonese, I'm so gona get her to teach me Cantonese!! Coz I'll be able to understand wat Sammi says next time. haha =P Anyway, even when I dun really understand wat she was saying or the lyrics of her song, I can feel the passion she puts in when she was singing those songs. The song she sang with much sincerity certainly touched my heart. Who else can make the crowd HIGH with just 2 songs after making her entrance to mark the start of her concert & not turn ppl off by wearing undies alike outfit for her concert? It has gota be Sammi!!! So wat if alot of ppl thinks she's a flat-chested woman. She's still ab...

SDC was showing "How to train your Dragon" in 3D, but it was during office hours & I cldn't make time for it. So end up , I didn't get 2 watch it free at my own company & hafta pay $10 to watch it outside. However, I felt that the $10 was pretty worth it though FREE wld still have been BETTER! =) wahaha *lol* This is a nice show! (That wld be an understatement though.) Wat's so great abt this movie? I wld say the friendship & loyalty b/w the boy & the dragon. What we see on the outside, wat we learnt from books, heard from other ppl, how much truth is in them? Not until we experienced it ourselves, we wld nv have the ans. Throughout our lives, alot of ppl tried to fill our minds with their own perspective. If we're nt strong enough, we wld be like a sponge & absorb watever was told to us & unable to differentiate truth & myths. Some of us even lacked the courage to pursue the path of TRUTH. I'm nt trying to tell u to turn a deaf...

Happy Birthday to 2nd aunt & Hebe!!! 祝你天天开心，笑口常开！ 永远青春美丽！！ 有些事，若不在我们的掌控中，就随它去。虽然，会有点伤，但总会过去的。换个方式去面对并接受，你的世界将会更完美！二姨，祝你福如东海，寿比南山！ It's my Shero, Hebe's b'day! Wohoo!!

Wait for my review once I've get it! (^^,)

It was a 1 night stay over in Melacca. I was the women's chauffeur & so, my stay was being paid for. haha =P Thanks to the 2 lovely ladies! I tot it was pretty obvious when CL & I walked to the cafe after we got back to the hotel from our shopping. Plus, Ivan always have the tendency to "spoil" surprises. However, our v.innocent b'day girl dun haf the slightest idea. wahaha *lol* Are the CLs too discreet or was the b'day girl simply too blur? Strawberry truffle which tastes like cheesecake. (This was wat the 2 of them said, I've no idea hw a truffle shld taste like.) She blew the candle b4 I can take a photo. She broke out into laughter when we asked her to juz act & pose for the camera. My CL & my 女人！ Looks like some women from erm . . . Was it Tibet? She keeps repeating, "I look so cui/unglam!" (Forgot the exact word, bt somewhere along that line.) 1 of the better shots. When u dun haf a camera with u, u juz hafta make do with phot...

Recently, I'm being "blamed" for spoiling a b'day surprise for 1 of my wives. Tonight, we managed to successfully surprise Xiong!! =) Look at the surprised look! =) Group photo 1! Group photo 2! Look at the glutton(s)! Making a wish! We gave him 3 wishes. . . v(^_^)o Watever u wish for, may they all come true for u!! Happy Xiong! Happy Birthday! Presents presentation!! It seems like yesterday where the little botak was being cared for by my mum. It was during that period when my mum babysit him brought the 4 of us close to each other. Even when little botak's mum (1st aunt) found a new baby sitter for him, we would still meet up every weekends to eat Mac! Dad used 2b VERY strict on us; not allowing us to take cold drinks. We look fwd to e'wkend when we get to eat our fave food, drink coke & play in our fave playground. The 4 of us attended the same primary school, lived around the same area & hang out every now & then. We were just like inseparable...

22nd Mar 2010 Baby Kaelyn arrived on earth 3 wks earlier than expected. =) (I still think it's a good thing though.) Life's full of surprises. For someone who didn't believe in true love & marriage, she got married first in our clique. She used to hate kids & always feel like strangling them, she gave birth to her 1st baby & make it 1st in the zhus family! (^^,) For someone who didn't touch durians for 20yrs, she ate for the sake of hoping her baby would put on more weight, that's MOTHER LOVE for you. =P The youngest in our grp got married & gave birth 1st. So, if it really start from the youngest; Andrea, you've gota buck up! Coz yz can't wait 2 get married!!! Congrats to Sy & Eric on the arrival of their little princess!! Have fun in parenthood! v(^_^)o

Rec'd an interesting email from a friend & think my readers may find the points shared meaningful as well. The original text is in Chinese; being your friendly blog owner, I shall translate it into English as best as I can. Hopefully, I can still preserve the moral the story is trying to potray. =P An American teacher used the story, "Cinderella" to teach values to students. Original text rec'd through email :- 上課鈴響了，孩子們跑進教室，這節課老師要講的是《灰姑娘》的故事。 老師先請一個孩子上臺給同學講一講這個故事。 孩子很快講完了，老師對他表示了感謝，然後開始向全班提問。 老師：你們喜歡故事里面的哪一個？不喜歡哪一個？為什麼？ 學生：喜歡辛黛瑞拉（灰姑娘），還有王子，不喜歡她的後媽和後媽帶來的姐姐。辛黛瑞拉善良、可愛、漂亮。後媽和姐姐對辛黛瑞拉不好。 老師：如果在午夜12點的時候，辛黛瑞拉沒有來得及跳上她的南瓜馬車，你們想一想，可能會出現什麼情況？ 學生：辛黛瑞拉會變成原來髒髒的樣子，穿著破舊的衣服。哎呀，那就慘啦。 老師：所以，你們一定要做一個守時的人，不然就可能給自己帶來麻煩。另外，你們看，你們每個人平時都打扮得漂漂亮亮的，千萬不要突然邋邋遢遢地出現在別人面前，不然你們的朋友要嚇著了。女孩子們，你們更要注意，將來你們長大和男孩子約會，要是你不注意，被你的男朋友看到你很難看的樣子，他們可能就嚇昏了（老師做昏倒狀，全班大笑）。 好，下一個問題：如果你是辛黛瑞拉的後媽，你會不會阻止辛黛瑞拉去參加王子的舞會？你們一定要誠實喲！ 學生：（過了一會兒，有孩子舉手回答）是的，如果我辛黛瑞拉的後媽，我也會阻止她去參加王子的舞會。 老師：為什麼？ 學生：因為我愛自己的女兒，我希望自己的女兒當上王后。 老師：是的，所以，我們看到...

Hey, my dear readers!! If you're planning to watch "How to Train your Dragon" in 3D at SDC, pls wait no more. We're only showing this film till 31st Mar 2010!! You have got to act fast!! Check out our iWerks right here ! It's a show not to be missed!! Especially if u're fans of cartoons like, "Shrek" & "Madagasca" & "Kung Fu Panda", I bet you would love this movie too!! v(^_^)o Note to self : Shall I come back on Sat to watch as well? Hmm . . .

How are you feeling today? Hope it's GREAT! v(^_^)o We are human with feelings & it's perfectly okay to feel down at times. Most importantly is, we know how to pick ourselves up! How do you make urself feel better? Everyone has their own ways. However, make sure you use the right ways. Never do harm to yourself or others to make yourself feel better, yah? As for me, when I'm really SUPER DUPER ULTRA stressed, I feel better being left alone. Based on past experiences, when I get stressed up, I play basketball alone in the afternoon, go to the beach alone for some suntanning, lock myself up in the room & play my guitar, write emo songs & stories etc. As I was riding home just now, I was thinking of alot of things. (Yes, it's unsafe to have ur mind occupied while riding. Readers, pls dun follow this bad example.) Anyway, it suddenly struck me, "It'd been a LONG time since I last wrote a story." Gosh! Almost 2 years le. These 2 yrs, I've make m...
