Ice-Cream & Slurpee

I feel ill and miserable..and the sorethroat is killing me!

This is the first time I've gotten myself ill in 2009, I'm fit as Hercules on usual days ;)
Keep my fingers crossed that it is not some swine flu thingy.

'No amount of medicine works for me', I told the kind Doctor.
'Huh?' She stared bewildered.

'A jumbo size Slurpee and few ice-creams will do the trick.' I croaked in my new man-ly voice.
Insanly left the clinic armed with only 1 MC and enough cough syrup to standby for the cough to set in after the slurpee remedy.

The Doctor must have thought the fever has turn me into a nutcase.

Folks!! I am not kidding!!
The crushed fine ice in Slurpee soothes and numbs my irritated throat, it really works wonders!
And the Magnum ice-cream provides some cheap nutrients when there is no appetite even for the most tantalising dish.
You guys should try the slurpee remedy when Sorethroat pops by to say 'Hello' next time ;)

Feeling darn miserable now & I want my big bear hug..when this uninvited 'guest' says Goodbye!

If only Men understand..

Enjoy some light-hearted humor I found online..

"Somebody once said that the pain of childbirth is equivalent to being kicked in the balls for however many hours the labour lasts. Think that over."

"We rather you don't have a perfect six-pack. When you do, it makes us feel like we need one too. Which ain't gonna happen."

"Your old smelly chair is not your throne, nor is the remote control your God-given right.."

Farmer versus Hunter

A kind colleague of mine advised over coffee today to settle for a well established man in comparison to one who just started off his career.

I label this as ‘Hunter’ versus ‘Farmer’ in business context.
A hunter is someone who hunts for potential deals and nails it while a farmer sows the seeds and gathers the harvest which the latter is often a more exhausting one.

No doubt life will be good to settle for the well established, but I prefer to sow, plough and nurture before the harvest.
Call me a sadist, but it is in times of facing difficulties, solving problems and differences together that build relationships on solid ground.
Besides, you are missing out the experience of witnessing your partner turning from pauper to prince.
How can I miss that out? I won’t spare him (God knows where?) the teasing on the humility lessons he learnt from pauper to prince.

I appreciate your kind efforts, but let me know if you have paupers instead of Ferraris yeah?
Oh yes! A pauper with a big tolerent heart for my constant teasing and bullying.
Hahahaha... * evil winks*

Why Should I say 'Sorry'?

Saying 'Sorry' seems to be the hardest word.

In my flying years, I can’t recall the countless time ‘Sorry’, ‘Thank you, ‘Trouble you.” were exchanged in the tiny galley.
To all crew wanabes, this is the cabin crew culture ok! :)

One does not walk away a loser when mistakes are admitted and apologies said.
In contrast, it reflects humility on self and the precious life lessons only adds to one’s advantage.
My heart softens when forgetful waitress or fellow MRT commuters say sorry when orders are forgotten and sardine-squeezing during peak hours.

I feel ‘enlightened’ when I read an article Gabriel sent today ;)
This sentence particularly strikes an impact on me, Mistakes, in my opinion, are not opportunities to chastise or place blame, they're opportunities to learn and improve."

For the full article, you may refer to

So my Dearest Folks, next time you are stuck in an argument with your girlfriend/boyfriend, colleagues or anyone..
Take the opportunity to say ‘Sorry’ first, I bet you will be surprised with his/her soften heart, just like mine too *winks*

You will realize saying ‘Sorry’ is no longer the hardest word in the dictionary ;)
