Francelle’s Life…

Was browsing through my stack of albums of memories… gosh.. time flies.. and its now 2007.

Looking some of the pictures i took from childhood days.. to teenages years… to adulthood… i realised im AGING!!! wrinkles under my eyes… losing the elasticity and firmness on my skin.. OMG!! what will i be like 10 years down the road? An old hag with wrinkles all over.. boobs sagging.. butt sagging.. *EeeK!*

I kinda miss my active life then. I’m like so slacky now.. exercise only once a week.. *Shakes head* Feel so flabby all over.. wonder how am i going to get my ippt gold this year.. (4 pcs of $50.00 notes flying away with their wings..) I need to buck up!!! gotta start pulling up my socks le.. need to start running.. swimming.. and going to the gym.. oh oh..recently i just started with netball with the safsa.. something new for me.. hehz.. they have training every monday at kallang netball centre.. =)

Damn.. went sakura buffet last nite.. guess i had too much of raw oysters and salsom sashimi… suffered throughout the night with diarrhea.. am now having gastric again.. hmm probably also because i forgot to have my lunch yesterday.. *shruggs* Going to see the doc later… hope he have some miracle pills to stop the pain and diarrhea.. =|

*** Ah choo!! *** am i catching a flu too?

Took duty off today in lieu to accompany my mum for her medical appointment at Alexandra Hospital.. This is how the procedure goes for each visit:

1. Park my car near to the A&E Entrance.

2. Walk with my mum to Clinc J

3. Place my mum’s appointment card at the registration counter

4. A queue number for her blood test will be issued to her & another for the consultation after the blood test results.

5 . Wait for the queue number to be called. Meanwhile will take her weight at the weighing machine. (Took mine, gosh! i’m 59kg now.. but i seriously dun look like a 59….)

6. After number called, blood test is carried out.

7. Breakfast and catching up session with mum @ the canteen

8. Toilet visits, window shopping @ the pharmacy, lazing on the sofa while awaiting for the consultation queue number to be called. (Its usually 930 by the time we sat on the sofa, our number is 1030.)

9. Alas, 1030 is called and the consultation began…

Usually it will end here with the doctor’s prescriptions given. But today the doctor.. (actually he is a professor.) brought us to another clinc, Clinic A.. to look into my mum’s diet. (Cause her grucose level is still very high despite much consultations)

Spent about and hr or 2 at Clinic A, before making payment and proceeding to the pharmacy for the prescriptions.

Well, since im on duty off the whole day, after the medical appointment, i drove my mum to the ‘Guan Yin’ Temple at bugis. Went there to do some prayings and blessings.

Brought my mum to a manicurist as she has been complaining that the her nails are plain without the colours. (she removed them recently as the previous colouring were fading) Well, thought of doing some pediacure for my own, but decided not to..

After about 45 mins, my mum was pleased with her new colours, some kinda pinkish purple nail colours.. ya pretty sweet.. haha.. but nice colours lah. It was almost 3pm.. and we have not taken our lunch yet. Went for ‘Xiao Wan Mian’. The noodles were still fine but the soup was like… *puke* Thus we didnt finish the soup.

Well, after our lunch, we travelled towards west (home sweet home i thought), was told to stop by at the wet market as my mum gotta get some fresh fruits for offerings at home. Finally..its time to go home…

I like Gigi’s Leung’s latest ablum: 给自己的情歌

One of them is:

在镜中何苦你要落泪
礼物放于手里
谁也没有心想去打碎
没有什么爱已过去
你与你昨日暂时团聚
直至再遇着迷人伴侣
今天安睡
伤心不必知道放在那里
来面对新的生活
只需肤色给你赞许
不需跟笑声作对
爱过便十全十美
你要特别鸣谢你
这次若是无运气
伤风失恋不会致死
人海十万里
谁又一天一天
谁又一点一点留心你
痛也是合情合理
你要慢慢原谅你
你要日后成大器
灰灰的天都要撑起
谁可善待你
由自己的嘴巴
和自己讲一声要争气
明知爱太受罪
你若豁得出去
年老便有些恋爱花絮
让你内心永远少女
那怕会再度被情连累
甚至快乐地顽强面对

Well… love hurts.

Today I’ve attended a church wedding. It was a joyous occasion, everyone was happy for the newly weds. Being the guest, i felt very touched and happy for the bride. The songs they sang.. the prayers they received from their fellow relatives and friends.. its just so heart-warming.

The Elder said the success of a marriage consists of 6 Cs.. erm.. let me see how many can i recall…

Communications - A marriage definitely do not work when a couple do not communicate.. Its always good to talk to each other.. anything.. under the sun..the moon..the stars.. or just the clouds.. =)

Consideration - Always be considerate to one another. Take note of the small little actions that one does. Show your care and concern and they would really appreciate that.

Compromise - When it comes to quarreling, never never mention the word ‘Divorce’. When you married, you have already given your vows to forsake everything to take care of another and be there for one another. Learn to accept each other. Don’t attempt changing your spouse’s characters.. this is him/her.

Courtship - Remember the courtship days? Heh.. how loving.. how romantic.. how tender love can be… Yesh all this has to be continued even after marriage.

Oopss..and the rest of the Cs.. i cant rem le.. i have got very bad memory.. but for what i can remember, it just gave me an enlightment towards marriage. Marriage is a lifetime commitment to your partner. Do not rush into marriage for the sake of marrying. You really have to love each other.. care for each other.. and willing to spend the rest of your life with him/her. Be it healthy or not…poor or rich…

………… Love for a lifetime ………….. Marriage……………
