~*~ Macbeth Premiere Nite & DBS Black Top Party at Fabrika ~*~



Many thanks to Harper's Bazaar mag for the pair of tickets to Macbeth Premiere Nite =) brought my leechie mum to Fort Canning for this play...she initially thought tt the play would be in an indoors setting until i told her to pack some mats or whatever so tt we could sit outdoors in the park o.O I was really thankful for the heavy rain earlier in the day...it was nice n dry when we reached fort canning =)

The last time tt a leechie was at Fort Canning was a couple of years ago for D&D at The Legends...so i wasn't sure where exactly the Gothic Gate entrance was...so gotta thank the front desk staff at The Legends for directions to the venue =) there were alot of ppl there by the time we found the exact venue o.O most of them were sitting on the grass slope...quite a big crowd...we found a spot n parked ourselves on the steps...leechie was a literature student but this was the v.first time that i watched a Shakespeare play live! being a literature student, i had problems trying to rem my quotes for exams...so i was really impressed with how the actors n actresses could memorize their Shakespearean lines n act out the scenes with such emotions! Particularly, Lady Macbeth was such a memorable character...n i gotta say tt i was really impressed with the stage setup n the stage transformation for each scene =) For those of u who havent seen this play...go watch it before the run ends ya =)

Check out the majestic stage setup o.O

A member of the Macbeth cast making her way to the stage...o.O


Rushed over to Fabrika for DBS Black Top Party right after Macbeth ended...it was the first time tt i attended DBS Black Top Party...cos i juz received my DBS black card recently...i was holding onto the DBS amex gold card which i hardly use n they sent me this black card, saying tt it's more suitable for a leechie...whatever tt means o.O this was my second time at Fabrika...i was there for Halloween last year...but i still had problems trying to reach the 17th floor...took the wrong lift n ended up at the function rooms instead =.=" they were serving Chivas sour n Chivas dry this time round...think i prefer Chivas sour more ;p i kinda like the open-air concept of the place...but i reached Fabrika rather late...think many ppl were leaving by the time i got there...thought i saw a familiar face at the lift...but doubt he rems/recognizes a leechie o.O" thanks the marketing team of DBS Black card for organizing this event...looking forward to more happening events from them =)

Fabrika...


Bar counter at Fabrika o.O


leechie look of the day ;p


A pity tt i miz out on Harn's GE rally speech on tv juz now...my leechie mum watched part of it n told me tt she was impressed with harn =) told me tt harn's chinese is definitely far more impressive than mine...well, tt goes without saying ya =.=" told her tt harn juz returned from US not too long ago...i poked fun of my leechie mum...asked her to move over to harn's constituency if she wanna vote...lol ;p btw, gotta stress tt charisma is v.important in politics ;p lastly, i still need to reiterate tt this aint a political blog...n although leechie aint going to the polls, this is definitely not an inducement for anyone to vote for any particular political party! leechie is purely capitalistic...far from political ;p

The delivery man came with my box of Kate Spade shoes today...so i cant resist but to pose with the box ;p

Leechie posing with her box...how did i do? ;p
Guess what? now i get ppl talking abt this white box tt i posed with...saying tt it's not the original Kate Spade box...greatly amused ;p but did i say tt this is the original Kate Spade box? ;p i bought my Kate Spade shoes from an online retailer here n they sent me their own box instead of the original green color Kate Spade box o.O"

Oops...i forgot to put up my V sign ;p n Anna said she'll only vote for leechie if i put the V sign...lol ;p

My pretty Kate Spade shoes ♥
N for the benefit of skeptical ppl, do i need to take a pic of the interior of my shoes to show tt it's an original pair of Kate Spade shoes? ;p


Nothing to do with politics...but she's a strong speaker...i like her confidence ♥


Was told that she looks sexier in this clip ;p


Cutie hello kitty stand ♥

Saw these cutie hello kitty stuff which keep beckoning leechie to bring them home ♥

Returned home with these cutie hello kitty pillow n bolster ♥

关于爱情:





Saw this on fb...

"关于爱情:

不要认为后面还有更好的,因为现在拥有就是最好的。

不要认为我还年轻,可以晚些结婚,爱情是不等年龄的。

不要因为距离太远而放弃,爱情是可以和你一起坐火车的。

不要因为对方不富裕而放弃,只要不是无能的人,勤劳可以让你们致富。

不要因为父母反对而放弃,你会发现这个原因而放弃的爱情,将是你一生的悔恨。

其实,对于爱情,越单纯越幸福!一生只谈一次恋爱是最好的。经历的太多了,会麻木,分离多了,会习惯,换恋人多了,会比较,到最后你会不再相信爱情,你会自暴自弃,你会毫无生气,你会行尸走肉,你会与一个你不爱的人结婚,就这样过一辈子‧‧‧



所以牵好的手就不要轻易放开,说过的话就不要轻易收回,承诺过的人就不要轻易忘记‧‧‧



有些人,有些事,既然发生了。

就注定是你一生的回忆‧‧‧"

Took me quite a while to really read through n appreciate the following meaningful article shared by Jeff...do take a look ya...i bet u'll take a shorter time than a leechie =)

"留住的叫做幸福、流逝的叫做遗憾

世界上总是有一些很怪的事……

有时当你爱上一人,你会无时无刻的想到他的身影,

当你孤单时,会希望陪在你身边的也是他。

如果是单恋的话,胆小一些的人,会偷偷的躲起来看着他。

等啊等……一直到最后才会放弃,这种人说真的,很傻。

也许痴痴等待换来的不过是失望,却也会一直的等下去。

在得知对方也喜欢他的瞬间,心情真的会飞上天堂。

好像天塌下来也不怕,只因为心爱的人也爱你。

但是那都是在热恋时心里才会这样想。

大家都不会相信,不完美的爱情会发生在自己身上。

一直到分手了,脑中热恋的激素退去后。

才开始思考之前的回忆,那些回忆有好有坏。

希望大家都是好的那方,而不是越想越恨。

分手之后,人都会找理由,一个合理又不伤人的理由。

但事实上,我们找不到,因为……

不管什么理由,都一样伤人。

不过最惨的,是你爱到最后发现,你爱的人不爱你。

一切过往的甜蜜回忆将瞬间崩溃。

当分手时,祝对方幸福是很有风度的。

可是当对方还爱你时,这句话会伤他伤的更深;

要是你再加上一句:对于你,我已经看的很开了。

对方心碎的声音,你是听不见的。

有些人会要求继续当朋友,也许双方都能遵守。

不过不容否认的是:到了世界末日的时候,最爱你的人并不一定是陪在你身边的那个,陪着你的也许是适合你的人,而不是最爱你的人。

不过这也是也许……还是有人能找到适合又相爱的人,为了自己也为了你的他,离开一段不属于你的恋情,是最明智的选择……

经历一些事情之后,人会长大,也会更了解一些事;而经历一段感情后,会更懂得去爱。

留的住的叫幸福,流逝的叫遗憾。

幸福的滋味是甜甜的,偶尔酸酸的;遗憾的感觉是苦苦的,偶尔会辣辣的。

好好对待你身边的人,能在一起就是幸福。

如果爱上,就不要轻易放过机会。

莽撞,可能使你后悔一阵子;怯懦,却可能使你一辈子后悔。

没有经历过爱情的人生是不完整的,没有经历过痛苦的爱情是不深刻的。

爱情使人生丰富,痛苦使爱情升华……"

Which reminds me of the following quotes:

"幸福是靠自己去爭取的~不管是友情或愛情~~錯過了就沒有了..."

"如果爱上,就不要轻易放过机会。莽撞,可能使你后悔一阵子;怯懦,却可能使你后悔一辈子。"

"祝愿所有有情人、学会珍惜。珍惜。那个你看起来很烦的那个人。因为失去了、就不会再有人这么对你了。"

"一個真正的男人, 不會把女人當作毫無價值的附屬品。"

"真心喜欢一个人不必在意门当户对,最重要是幸福,所以喜欢一个人就要勇往直前去争取,锁定目标,这样做人才会活得有意义。"

"真正的爱情,不是一见钟情,而是日久生情;真正的缘份,不是上天的安排,而是你的主动;真正的自卑,不是你不优秀,而是你把她想得太优秀;真正的关心,不是你认为好的就要求她改变,而是她的改变你是第一个发现的;真正的矛盾,不是她不理解你,而是你不会宽容她……"

"如果你愛一个人,你會了解她的一切,而不需要問她;如果你不愛一个人,即使她告訴你她的一切,你也還是會忘记的。"

"爱情世界里~没有所谓的合不合适,只有珍惜不珍惜~~"

"If I want to be loved as I am, then I need to be willing to love others as they are."

"Maybe we are supposed to meet a few wrong people before meeting the right one, so that when we finally meet the person, we will know how to be grateful."

"If you don't go after what you want, you'll never have it. If you don't ask, the answer is always no. If you don't step forward, you're always in the same place."

Saw this posting from Mike...sooooooo sweet...o.O
"I rem when I was in love, I held my hp close to me everyday so I won’t miss a single call or msg from her, as I don’t wish to let her go thru any down period alone~ I want her to know I’m always beside her & thinking of her~ No matter what happen, we’ll make it thru & we’ll always have a tomorrow together" ~ Mike

"不要让那个喜欢你的人,撕心裂肺地为你哭那么一次。因为,你能把他/她伤害到那个程度的机会只有一次。那一次以後,你就从一个不可或缺的人,变成一个可有可无的人了。即使他/她还深愛着你,可是总有一些東西真的是改变了,和从前不再一样了。"

"緣起~~是前世未完成的詩篇,相遇~~是今生延綿的下闕~~祝福你們細水長流一帆風順"

"People always think a girl like you has a lot of suitors but actually you're just by yourself, no one dares to woo you - it's true"

TopSage: My Biggest Regret

Juz wanna share this touching post from our fav cna forummer TopSage...v.different style from his usual mkt views...definitely worth a read! o.O tears rolled down my leechie face each time i read n re-read this posting from Toppie... >.<"
(http://forum.channelnewsasia.com/viewtopic.php?t=426479&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=0)

"Like most Singaporeans, I have grown up reading the Straits Times. I based my life and the decisions I make on information supplied to me in this daily. The strength of the influence on me was so great, I couldn't see the obvious problems of people around me. I took it that it was completely "normal" for people not to be able to afford medical care. for children to skip meals because parents have no money and that the everyday strain of those around me is just "normal". Things are alright the Straits Times tell me. If people suffered, they deserve it under our meritocratic system because if top leaders have to be paid millions for their competence, it should be okay for lesser mortal to take some suffering.

My biggest regret in life is that I never looked into the eyes of those who suffered. Let me explain. When old men come to my table to ask me to buy tissue, I would continue eating with one hand and wave the other to ask him to go away, My belief is these people "foul up" their own lives and now have to sell tissue paper. When the aged cleaner comes to clean my table, I will just take it as normal that she has to work since the doctrine our leaders is those without money should never retire...while they get millions in pension after they serve 2 terms in office.

A few months ago, when an old lady hunched and with hands shaking came to clean my table, I looked at her. I want to show you a picture similar to what I saw:

http://www.flickr.com/photos/scratchmyfrontlens/2394925531/

It was the lines and wrinkles so many ...so many reflecting the years she had to struggle to reach her age. I asked myself why is there no rest for this old lady...why is she still working? Here we have a country that can afford to spend $300M on a youth event and billions on the most advanced weapons but cannot give something to make this old lady's life better. What kind of country do we live in? What kind of leaders do we have?

I was very touched and moved when I heard Nicole Seah talk about what motivated her to go into politics. She said she worked as a volunteer to deliver food to old folks and as a volunteer she could only make sure that some of the old folks have food for that day. The old folks had a roof over their heads but did not have any money left after they paid for govt fees and utilities. The question she asked herself eventually led her to join opposition politics to try to bring about a more lasting change.

I think Nicole Seah shames all of us ...for not thinking more and doing more.

The last elections, I didn't care much about anything and spent my time watching TV and shopping - I thought everything in this country is "normal" and I should just accept the status quo. But 4 months ago, I was awakened from my slumber and felt that I cannot do nothing this time. I've offered my time to be a volunteer for the WP and as a minimum I'll attend all rallies as a sign of support for the men and women who stepped forward.

Go look around you. Open your eyes and your mind. This is a country very much in need of change. We cannot keep the status quo. I biggest regret is that I took so long to wake up and do something about it. It is almost too late....and perhaps already too late but we must try!"

I dunno what to say...suddenly i feel so intellectual after watching this clip ;p


I guess Toppie would like this clip? ;p


Another clip which i think Toppie will like ;p


ERP song ;p


Amused with this quote...
"About 50% of the time when someone says...
"Good Luck" they really mean "Fxxk you"
"Good Bye" they really mean "Fxxk Off"
"Don't worry, you'll get over it" they really mean "oh man, you are Fxxked"
"its ok, I don't mind" they really mean "I fxxking mind""

Leechie Musings:

Again...i gotta reiterate tt this aint a political blog...n this is definitely not an inducement to vote for any particular party!

Monologue -> When you ask a person 101 questions n you get 0 reply -.-" it's better to talk to a wall ya...at the v.least, u can hear your own echo =.="

"If you don't go after what you want, you'll never have it. If you don't ask, the answer is always no. If you don't step forward, you're always in the same place."

Sometimes i really feel v.vulnerable for voicing my leechie thoughts here...esp when there r sooooo many ppl reading this leechie blog n my leechie musings o.O i'm juz a simple n uncomplicated person living in a complicated society =.=" i was reading something on the forbes webby...n i wonder if there comes a day when i grow tired of blogging...if i ever grow tired of being a silly blogger...is there an erase button tt i can hit to delete everything...every single trace of every single damn thing here? n since most ppl have short memory, maybe everyone will juz forget abt my leechie presence? o.O" despite saying all these, but i still appreciate all my leechie fans...yes, every single one of u out there...thx for being with leechie! ♥ i was reading all the media reports on the candidates for the upcoming general elections...think we gotta give them credit for braving all the public scrutiny of apparently every aspect of their lives o.O despite all my musings...but i still value my privacy greatly...veron calls me crazy...but i'm not crazy enough to harbour any political ambitions n to subject myself to constant public scrutiny! @.@"

Popularity is juz a matter of perception o.O cos a fren commented tt leechie is popular...even the most popular football teams have tons of millions of haters o.O" i truly understand tt i cant please everyone...n for every leechie fan out there...there would be others who hate a leechie...but i dont exactly lurve everyone either o.O" Lonely sat...zzz till lazy sat aftn...then pop over to the neighbouring coffeeshop to catch the Man U vs Everton matchie amidst the weird stares...i know i look outta place there in my pretty pink floral dress...but sorry, i cant reveal which place...no wanna invite stalkers -.-" juz realized tt Phil Neville is at Everton now...well, always thought tt the neville bros were the weakest link of the man u team...n when did man u buy tt michael owen? =.=" Man U left it real late to seal the game...but a win is a win ;p gonna be a packed day tmr for leechie...leechie muz jia you! o.O

Btw, it's a well known fact tt leechie has a keen interest in Fengshui n Bazi...i find bazi so intriguing...cos it kinda explains alot of stuff in a person's life...one's personality, problems tt one face, possible challenges, etc...i was having an argument with my leechie mum today...cos apparently, from a mere surface glance at my bazi...i'm supposed to be lacking in the intelligence department...i'm tempted to think "excuse me, is there a mistake?" hmmm, maybe i do alot of silly things n ask alot of silly questions? besides that, i'm inclined to think that there could really be some mistake somewhere? or perhaps something wrong with the interpretation? @.@" i have absolutely no intention of showing off but u can go ask any of my classmates abt my level of intelligence n the kind of grades tt i got in school n how i used to top my classes...anyway, doubt a person lacking in the intelligence department could even gain entry into the schools i attended ;p so i really dunno how accurate this bazi thingy is o.O" well, my leechie mum is of the opinion tt since leechie is the type of person who doesnt resign to fate but believes in creating my own destiny in life...then there is no point in me studying bazi...well, i'm into bazi to understand myself better n cos it's so intriguing @.@" n i told her to go ask her frenz who keep preaching abt the end of the world in 2012 to go lie instead a coffin n wait for death if they really believe in tt crapz! far better for them to lie waiting in the coffin than to go around spreading crapz to pollute my leechie mum's mind! -.-" cos i was telling her tt there's a cna forummer who went to see some fengshui master who told him tt his bazi is damn lousy n asked him to spend 12+k to change his bazi...no offence, but this sounds too leechy n we greatly doubt how this could be done...but even if it is possible to change one's bazi, what's the point of changing a person's bazi if he's still the same old person inside with the same damn lousy mindset n stuff? wouldnt it be better for him to spend this money to go upgrade himself n go change his mindset instead? =.=" how abt buying washing machine to brainwash himself instead? lol ;p

Juz saw the email that Jeff sent abt this 6 year old china boy who lives alone on some mountain top...he's HIV positive and only lives with his doggie cos his parents died a few years ago...he barely has enough to eat n has to look after himself...i juz cant control my tears when reading abt such stuff...esp when there r sooooo many ppl out there who dont even realize how blessed they r n dont appreciate what they have >.<"

Guess what? i happened to be at orchard this aftn...there was some red bull f1 car performance thingy...it was v.loud but i cant see a single thing! think it's better to watch on tv instead! -.-"

This pic was taken outside Marriot hotel last thurs o.O


The giant red bull tent outside Ngee Ann City o.O


Patches' bored look =.=" n when i was trying to describe to a fren how a golden retriever tried to climb onto a leechie earlier in the week...Patches came over to aid in the demo n tried to climb onto me a la how a maltese did a couple of years back...u shld have seen the scene...i was standing against the wall with my arms raised (in a "surrender" pose) n the dog cornered me n climbed onto me as if i were a tree...lol ;p too bad tt no pics were taken of this comical scene o.O" btw, i'm sorry to hear tt Nugget peed on frenz' 5k bed @.@"


Cutie BOO in one of his cutie poses...makes me wanna kidnap him ♥


Dynamite ;p

"對方不喜歡你,你再怎麼追也沒用。對方喜歡你,根本不需要挖空心思去追。或許真有一天他/她被你的誠意所打動,可最終大多還是會分手收场。因為愛情不是感動,也不是施舍,你不是他/她心目中的理想伴侶,即使一時接受你,將來碰上他/她心儀的那一位,一樣會離開你。"

"對的時間遇見對的人,是一種幸福;對的時間遇見錯的人, 是一場心傷;錯的時間遇見錯的人,是一段荒唐;錯的時間遇見對的人,是一生嘆息。"

"緣起~~是前世未完成的詩篇,相遇~~是今生延綿的下闕~~祝福你們細水長流一帆風順"

如果可以以友情的名义爱着一个人



Saw this article shared by Jeff...ouchie o.O"

1、

当我走在街上,

偶然碰见和恋人一起走的你,

我的眼睛不经意的看到幸福的那两个人牵的手,

也要毫不在意地笑一笑;

因为正在以友情的名义爱着一个人,

必须学会忍耐,

然后,

可以在背后偷偷地流一滴泪。



2、

在商店的橱窗里看见了你喜欢的一些东西,

只能视而不见。

如果还是忍不住想送给你,

也要这样说:

“这是本来想送给别人的,还是给你了。”

其实根本没有想到别人,

只为你买了那些东西。

如果正在以友情的名义爱着一个人,

必须这样做,

然后,

可以在背后偷偷地流两滴泪。



3、

听到你病了的消息,

也要和周围的朋友一样,

只能担心一点点,

只一点点。

其实,

很想知道你哪里疼,

怎么疼,

很想分担你的痛苦,

心如刀割,

焦急,

但是还是要装着泰然。

如果正在以友情的名义爱着一个人,

必须这样做,

然后,

可以在背后偷偷地流三滴泪。



4、

有些时候,

或者在呼吸的每一个瞬间,

都在想念你,

也要忍住。

即使很想很想你的时候,

也只能用声音代替这份相思苦,

也要安慰自己这是你的声音。

如果这样也不足,

那么也只能以不成逻辑的名义约你出来,

解这份相思苦。

如果正在以友情的名义爱着一个人,

必须要学会忍耐,

然后,

可以在背后偷偷地流四滴泪。



5、

有一句话很想对你说,

我爱你。

这一句不长的话,

很想要自己亲口传递给你的话,

不应该在不经意的时候说出来。

即使这样也忍不住说的时候,

也要用听不懂的外语开玩笑似的带过去。

如果正在以友情的名义爱着一个人,

必须要学会忍耐,

然后,

可以在背后偷偷地流五滴泪。



有些时候,

成为对难以接受我们的爱情的人不能给予爱情,

只能利用友谊的名义继续留在他\她身边的人之一。

我不是不知道,

可又无奈。

虽然我想为你微笑无数次......

"A soulmate is someone who has locks that fit our keys, and keys to fit our locks. When we feel safe enough to open the locks, our truest selves step out and we can be completely and honestly who we are; we can be loved for who we are and not for who we’re pretending to be." ~ Richard Bach

Quote from JS:
"Too often we make our own cages of the mind, or the heart.
But we have the keys to unlock them. We only need the will to use them.
Unlock your heart, love freely.
Unlock your mind, live freely."

"You know how much you are worth in the eyes of someone by how much attention that was given to you. If the person's excuse is that he is always busy but has time for others and not you.. what does it show?"
"I wonder if you think of me when you're busy? Cause I'm always busy thinking of you."
Maybe he's juz not that into u, babe...save yourself from further heartache >.<"

"如果你愛一个人,你會了解她的一切,而不需要問她;如果你不愛一个人,即使她告訴你她的一切,你也還是會忘记的。" haiz >.<"

Monologue -> When you ask a person 101 questions n you get 0 reply -.-" it's better to talk to a wall ya...at the v.least, u can hear your own echo =.="

Strangers again...ouchie >.<"

"listen to the cry of the ocean
sighs of one whose heart's broken & yet not awaken
it cannot be me coz i'm calm
but my tears, even my tears won't believe me
listen to the cry of the ocean
the too sentimental ocean cries til the break of dawn"


It aint that easy to fall in love...

Update:

Leechie cant type in chinese...so whatever chinese that u see here on this blog are juz "copy n paste" ;p btw, i used to think that as long as i can buy n sell in Chinese, then i dont have much of a prob...but i realized tt there r ppl who would take advantage of the fact tt my chinese aint strong during arguments...so more incentive to boomz up my unimpressive chinese =.=" but i still have problems watching news in chinese...dont understand all those chinese terminologies used n company names in chinese -.-"

My pretty heart-shaped mouse ♥

Books Recommended By Eric

Books recommended by Eric...his response to a question that he was frequently asked: "What are the books I have read to shape my thinking?"‎


""Diamond Cutter" by Geshe Michael Roche - the book taught me about karma and generosity. To be happy, first make someone else happy. To be rich, first help someone get rich. And to be loved, first love.

‎"Altas Shrugged" by Ayn Rand. A highly controversial and philosophical book (heard they are making this into a movie really soon). This book introduced me to objectivism, where "civilization cannot exist where men are slave to society and government, and that the destruction of the profit motive leads to the collapse of society."

"Who Will Cry When You Die" by Robin Sharma. Blew my mind away when I first read it as it inspired me to live my best life. This is also where I first learnt that one's purpose in life is the convergence of one's passion, one's talent and one's most natural way of giving back.

"Public Speaking For Success" by Dale Carnegie. One of the first books I ever read about public speaking. Great ideas that stood the test of time and has shaped the way I approach public speaking and communication.

The Inheritance Cycle by Christopher Paolini. His first book "Eragon" was made into a movie. I am crazy about mythology, magic and dragons. So far he has written three books and I have read it three times each. It's what made me who I am - a little geeky with a streak of defiance and love for adventure."

Recommendation from his sister, Eileen:
"Ender's Game by Orson Scott Card - on how compassion makes us more human.. when we take the time to truly understand our "enemy", how can we possibly not have anything but compassion and love towards them. Other lessons like game vs reality.. the influence of our memories on us."

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I havent read any of the above books yet...n there r still tons of books lying somewhere in my rooms...will get to these when i have finally managed to locate n clear the outstanding ones in my rooms @.@" but do share with me what u've learnt if u've read these titles ya =) i guess the title which really caught my eye was "Who Will Cry When You Die" by Robin Sharma...i dont wanna anyone to be sad when i'm gone...in fact, there was a really weird idea which was swimming in my leechie head a couple of years ago...i was wondering why must most funerals be such sad affairs with sooooooo many ppl weeping n weeping...i actually wondered how cool it would be if i could have my own funeral at this now-defunct club "Centro" at One Fullerton, playing progressive trance music instead of the usual funeral music...lol ;p i wouldnt know how my funeral would look like...n it doesnt matter to me...but i dont wanna anyone to be sad when i'm gone...

"Let your desired memories that u wanna leave others with be a source of motivation in how u live your life!!!" ~ leechie

Suddenly rem this particular blog entry that i wrote way back in 2009 (which was a year of big swings for me personally)
(http://leechietheleech.blogspot.com/2009/10/let-memories-be-your-motivation.html)
i juz realized tt there r many ppl reading what i wrote donkey years ago o.O do take a look at my earlier blogs...more substance in there i feel ;p n for those of u who r still under the impression tt there is nothing much underneath leechie's bimbotic looks...i urge u to go read my earlier blogs in 2009 n 2010 o.O

Cool quote from Jeff:
"Life is very short, so break your silly ego, forgive and forget, hope and believe , love truly, laugh loudly & never avoid anything that makes you smile!"

"People who mind, don't matter. People who matter, don't mind. This is True..."

According to Alex:
"Fortunately, the type of questions you ask reflect, your level of maturity, ignorance, values n how much a shit you give towards certain things"
but this silly leechie has so many silly questions >.<"

Juz wanna share a good posting by our fav cna forummer TopSage on his biggest regret...v.different style from his usual mkt views...definitely worth a read! o.O

Btw, leechie was at Forever21 juz now when the staff commented tt my kate spade bag looks nice...i asked him if i shld pose with a kate spade box instead? ;p btw, i was juz standing there outside the fitting rooms when some gal came outta a fitting room n handed me all the clothes tt she juz tried...she obviously thought tt leechie was the sales assistant there o.O n it's not the first time tt something like this happened...think i really have this sales assistant look eh? o.O"

"很多事,不要问得太多。成熟的人不问过去;聪明的人不问现在;豁达的人不问未来。因为已经过去的问了没用,眼前的又何必去问,未来的谁也不知道。世态实在忙碌,一切都在匆匆走过;人生确实短崭,一定少问多做。"

"幸福是碰上那種他會非常愛你,你也愛他,但不用愛得像他那麼用力的人。"

"真心喜欢一个人不必在意门当户对,最重要是幸福,所以喜欢一个人就要勇往直前去争取,锁定目标,这样做人才会活得有意义。"

~*~ Balaclava Ion Launch Party ~*~





Leechie was v.excited to attend Balaclava Ion launch party =) thx the lovely ladies at L'Officiel mag for organizing this cool event B-) this was my first time at Balaclava Ion...i lurve the classy ambience here...v.different from its previous location at suntec...they have a v.cool bar concept here...there's a row of steps leading to the 2nd level of the bar...n from there, one would be able to get a pretty good view of the entire Balaclava =)

Leechie fav lychee martini was on the house...pleasant surprise to see tt their lychee martini was served with 2 lychees each =) had some red wine which kinda helped to clear up my cough...i know this sounds ridiculous...but red wine always helps to improve my cough...perhaps, i'm juz abit different...lol ;p anyway, most cough mixtures contain alcohol too...noticed tt they serve Johnnie Walker blue label here too o.O well, tried the blue label on the rocks for the first time...it tasted v.smooth n sweet...nice =) tried the gold label too...but prefers the blue label...but after i bottoms up a blue label on the rocks, i felt abit too overwhelmed...abit too strong for me x.X" learnt tt the blue label is the most premium Johnnie Walker (think a bottle of blue label has a price tag of $600+?)...followed by the gold label o.O was told tt the blue label wont cause nasty hangovers o.O" but after a while, the effects of all the drinks (all the lychee martinis, red wine, blue label, gold label...) started to kick in...esp after all the drama n trauma earlier in the day @.@" besides drinks, Balaclava serves pretty tasty food too =)



leechie enjoying her lychee martini ;p


Harn disappeared fast again...as usual...perhaps to meet one of her bfs? lol ;p but gotta thx gal pals Jessica n lp for keeping leechie company...i was pretty late cos had to rush over after my day at Universal Studios...my leechie mum used to wonder why i have such a crazy schedule...but i gotta say...leechie aint a party animal but i subscribe to the popular saying "work hard, play hard" ;p there r many things tt u dont know abt a leechie underneath that apparently hedonistic lifestyle...to quote my cousin "You know my name, not my story. You've heard what I've done, not what I've been through" ;p btw, dont call me high-maintenance too...leechie juz happens to have refined taste ;p

Met the lovely ladies at L'Officiel mag...thx them once again for introducing us to this chic hangout place =) n we left with lovely goodie bags too =)

leechie n Jessica =)

Cool quote from Derick the ferrowolf:
"How do you expect kids to listen to their parents as Tarzan lives half naked, Cinderella come back at midnight, Pinocchio lies all the time, Aladdin is the king of thieves, Batman drives at 320KM/h , Sleeping beauty is lazy and Snow White lives with 7 Guys. We shouldn't be surprised if kids misbehave at times! They get this from their own storybooks, Copy this on ur wall if u like this.. !!"

Cool quote from Jeff:
"Life is very short, so break your silly ego, forgive and forget, hope and believe , love truly, laugh loudly & never avoid anything that makes you smile!"

Maybe he's juz not that into u, babe >.<"

Interesting Quotes:

"You'll seldom experience regret for anything that you've done. It is what you haven't done that will torment you. The message, therefore, is clear. Do it! Develop an appreciation for the present moment. Seize every second of your life and savor it. Value your present moments. Using them up in any self-defeating ways means you've lost them forever." ~ Dr. Wayne Dyer

"Winning is not an event, it’s a process and a person has to push through it." ~ Robert Kiyosaki

"Good relationships don't just happen. They need time, patience and two people who truly believe they're meant to be together."

"First comes thought; then organization of that thought, into ideas and plans; then transformation of those plans into reality. The beginning, as you will observe, is in your imagination." ~ Napoleon Hill

"I hated every minute of training, but I said, "Don't quit. Suffer now and live the rest of your life as a champion." ~ Muhammad Ali

"By working hard 8 hours a day, you may eventually get to be boss & work hard 12 hours a day." ~ Robert Frost

"Success doesn't come to you? You go to it baby."

"As I grow older, I pay less attention to what men say. I just watch what they do." ~ Andrew Carnegie

"No man is worth your tears, and when u found a man who is, he'll never make u cry!"

"I love how I can make some people jealous by just being me!!! haha ;)"

"We tend to forget that happiness doesn't come as a result of getting something we don't have, but rather of recognizing & appreciating what we do have."

"Age wrinkles the body. Quitting wrinkles the soul."

"The value of our lives is not how long it is, but how we live our lives"

"People try to create an outwardly perfect life but quality of life is based on the inward"

‎"If you put off everything till you're sure of it, you'll never get anything done." ~ Norman Vincent Peale (1898-1993, Minister and Author)

"Commit to doing something uplifting for yourself daily. And simultaneously, begin doing something for others as an ongoing project you can build on. This would reflect the love you have for yourself & humanity, & your power to make a difference, to focus on the positive & create anew. Shine YOUR light in all ways!" ~ Helen Lee

"We have come to value the left brain more than the right, logic more than intuition. So, we go about collecting skills & qualifications that support us to be valued & rewarded by society. Yet, when we can support ourselves by making healthy, rationale choices, many don't. We spend our time regretting our actions, hankering for what we don't have, thinking we'd be much happier if only... BE HAPPY NOW!" ~ Helen Lee

"The most important thing is to enjoy your life—to be happy—it's all that matters." ~ Audrey Hepburn
