Here it is!  Joshua and Wee Liem did a lovely job with the filming and editing. 

A belated post. But my first trip to America is surely worth blogging about. Most people are surprised that I've never been to the States up till now. Well, I guess I can cross off my 3rd continent now. Europe, Africa, South America etc will have to wait.  We had a uneventful, albeit slightly bumpy flight to LA. I was doing my best to follow the advice of beauty program gurus (namely, cleanse and moisturise face,neck and arms every 3-4 hours in a long haul flight), so I was armed with a cleanser, toner and 2 masks. It was very dry on the Eva Air flight, and I hate sitting for long periods of time. So it was great to walk around for a bit when I needed to use the washroom to cleanse and moisturise.  Got to LA and queued up for the LONGEST time at immigration. The Asian officer was VERY unfriendly. But I expected nothing more from the infamous American border officials. So after answering a few questions, he slowly stamped my passport and let me through.  I was...

Let's go back all the way to March when T proposed, shall we? Honestly, I already sensed it was coming because we were going to leave for Australia in a week and he had planned to propose before then. However, he put a lot of thought into it and I appreciated the effort with all my heart! We were out on a simple dinner date. He had already given the keys to a  couple of life group friends who were in the know. Their job was to decorate the place with whatever T had already purchased beforehand. T then asked me to swing by his place, and when we entered the place was all aglow… The gals had done a fantabulous job with the decor!  "Marry me" and a heart of candles. Petals everywhere. He knelt Most importantly a bunch of people burst out from behind with their phones and cameras I was laughing, not crying… It wasn't easy to absorb what was happening around me, and respond in a ecstatic manner.  I said yes after his spee...

Eva, one of the first people I met in Taiwan [on holiday 2009] The meal was her shout. HUGZZ Pesto chicken risotto. It's the yums! Fettucine with prawns and cream sauce Mojito - <3 my cocktails Layered cake Feeling so much better today. Thank God for friends who remind you of God's grace in beautiful ways.  One of the reasons I love my church is because it's full of people who understand and dispense God's grace. I've never heard condemnation and accusations. I've never heard my church friends around criticize other christians [though I've heard other ppl from other churches do it]. I hear honest feedback if one needs to change and grow. But they exude grace, love and authenticity.  I was whining to Eva today about how success seems to comes so easily for some people, and they don't seem to need to try very hard at all (e.g. mainly thinking about a pair of twins). Recently, one of them got married, an...
