^Dance^

I attended Jootz Platform class at Danzppl @ PoMo yesterday. Hmm...I definitely remembered the dance better today than in the workshop itself. *heh* Let's just say Penny's brain kinda shuts down from 9pm onwards. Whatever he said went in one ear and came out the next. :P Sorry Joot!

BUT! I did try again today in my room (cause I didn't go gym) and I REMEMBERED THE DANCE! Not only that, I could do it! Yea, it was kinda pathetic yesterday...you should check out the vid on FB. I remembered 1 count of the 10 eights. *hah*

Anyhoos, it got me thinking. My gym membership is finishing and as much as I would love to continue, I can only afford one ... so Dance or Gym? tough tough...

I would love to take Samba classes though it might be challenging to convince my potential male partner. :D But I just lurve samba dance...the rhythm, the hips, the passion...ooh la la.

Anyone with any good samba class recommendations?

While I'm on this topic, let me advertise: CJootz HipHop clases @ Danzppl. Check him out on FB @ "Jootz See"

Btw, I am conducting a poll on my FB at the moment. Was talking with my bro over dinner today: lately Ice Age 3 started a 3-D trend in the movies, one of which is Final Destination 4 (how many times can people keep dying). That got us thinking: What would be the scariest movie made in 3-D? For me it would be The Ring (japanese version) .. what's yours?

^Stuff on my mind 2^

Lately my mind's been wandering...

Have you have thought "What if I die tomorrow?"?
How many of us live like today's our last day on earth?
What would you say to those around you?
Would you ask for forgiveness? Will you be giving forgiveness?
Will you be saying 'I'm sorry' to those you've hurt? Will those who hurt you come back?
Will you go in peace or will you struggle against reality?

Will you be given a bell to ring?

When was the last time you told someone 'I love you'? Not just say it but really mean it.
When was the last time you cried? Cried out of overwhelming love I mean.
(The kind of tears that creep up the back of your throat when you stare into someone's eyes)
When was the last time you loved yourself - your body, your work, your mind - and did not doubt?

Personally, I'll have too much regret if I die tomorrow.
Too much left unconquered, too much left unsaid.

Yet, when it really does happen, you aren't the one left behind.
It's those who live that suffer. They suffer your regrets.

So what is more important? Courage or Love?
Without courage, love has no action.
Without love, what is empty bravery?

Maybe with wisdom and experience comes the knowledge of which to put first - Courage or Love.

~This Woman's Work~ by Maxwell
Pray God you can cope
I stand outside
This woman's work
This woman's world
Oooh, it's hard on the man
Now his part is over
Now starts the craft of the father
I know you have a little life in you yet
I konw you have a lot of strength left
I know you have a little life in you yet
I know you have a lot of strength left
I should be crying but I just can't let it show
I should be hoping but I can't stop thinking
All the things I should've said that I never said
All the things we should of done that we never did
All the things I should've given but I didn't
Oh darling make it go
Make it go away
Give me these moments back
Give them back to me
Give that little kiss
Give me your hand
I know you have a little life in you yet
I know you have a little strength left
I know you have a little life in you yet
I know you have a little strength left
I should be crying but I just can't let it show
I should be hoping but I can't stop thinking
Of all the things we should've said that were never said
All the things we should've done that we never did
All the things that you needed from me
All the things that you wanted for me
All the things I should of given but I didn't
Oh darling make it go away
Just make it go away now

^UPDATES!!!^

I was taking a shower when I suddenly felt that tonight's the night. You know, THE night...to update my blog. :D

*APPLAUSE*

Thank you thank you...dear readers who have patiently stood by this lonely blog. Thing is the pictures uploading take so dam long! Oh well, most are on FB anyhoos.

So yeap, agenda for this series of updates! First up are the holidays - Aussie & Macau, then some work updates and lastly, my planning for my upcoming France-Amsterdam trip! After the updates, will post some things that I have been thinking abouts...so to get started:

In the land Down Under - AUSTRALIA

Visited dear daddy in Perth, where he's been for the last year plus, then drove down to Margaret River.

Lovely weather, lovely scenery. No sense of time. No need to rush. A great place to just relax and enjoy life. Highly recommended.

~Parents' church in Perth. Very quaint.~

~Exploring Perth with my Pops~

~In Margaret River with the family~

~Great food. Chilled wine. Lovely sun. ~

~Holiday home. I loved it.~

I've always been a lover of the countryside holidays. The kind where you count horses and sheeps as your nextdoor neighbours, not the newest high-rise buildings. Hence, the next holiday wasn't exactly my favourite, but it was an affordable and interesting vacation trip nonetheless.

Macau - Casino City

Lots of hills. Lots and lots of hills. Thank goodness for free casino shuttles. (cue cheapo Penny) Lots of smoke-filled casinos. Portugese mixed Hong Kong-style buildings. Quite nice food. Overall, not my favourite choice for vacation.

~Crowded shopping lanes~

~St. Paul's Ruins - must see~

~The Venetian. wow...~

~Portugese Egg Tars. *droolz*~

~On top the Macau Tower. The floor was see-through for a partial section. Cool.~

Work Work

Work's been good so far. At least I'm not bored of my work though lately it has been difficult keeping my head up. :P

I've just changed portfolio: used to be doing marketing/events/communications for the retail arm; now am doing the same for the new trade arm instead. Learning new things which is always fun. Trying to keep up with the numerous F&B outlets in Singapore and who's who in the industry.

Sometimes I am not sure which to read more on - media programs, the F&B establishments, wines or marketing matters. Sigh... *head down, draw jacket closer and soldier on*

BUT I'M GOING TO FRANCE!!! For work that is. 28th Sept to 2nd Oct. Taking a week off after to tour Paris then off to Amsterdam to visit relatives. Can't wait for that. Am leaving the comments feature open for all suggestions ya?! :D

So there you have it. Nuggets of my life over the last 7 months. Would love to elaborate more but really, that would make up one new blog on its own. *heh*

Oh ya, will TRY very hard to include you guys in my planning for the France trip k? Advice will be much appreciated.
