hello daniel, despite what happened when u were a lil boy, i sure sure u have grown up stronger and wiser. every experience in life there is a lesson to be learnt.
continue to stay positive and i am so proud of u for the time u so willing give to the nursing home.
be who u are and do what makes u happy. thats most important.
kindness begets kindness.... may 2014 brings u a step closer to your dreams come true.
yes, lots of idea for now. but still i need to count the dollars and cents before i really decide what i want to do. again, it is what we need rather than what we want ...
thanks for the good wishes .... Have a Blessed and Fulfilling 2014
interior designer may sound like a big and expensive name. but in Singapore, it is not exactly what that word really means. someone who is able to draw up a plan on how to renovate the house and gives u a lil idea is already be considered as an interior designer. they dont own any designing company, but they work with some contractors' organization.
they are like the salesperson of the contractor company who goes round promoting their company's works and home building material.
its just another fancy title given to them.
i cannot afford a true blue interior designer ... lol
hello K, thanks for your kind wishes. yes, we will be happy . Finally we are truly moving on. we have been living in a small rented apartment since my divorce 8 years ago.
the boys are grown now - 20, 22 & 23. we made lots of sacrifices and finally saved enough for the downpayment. we live with a simple logic, and that is we buy what we need and not what we want. not an easy task forcing the boys to save ..... hahahha .... so that we can quickly have a home of our own. it was such an uphill task but when the going gets tough, the tough gets going.
8 years K, 8 long years, and i am seeing light at the end of the tunnel.
it was thru lots of prayers and perseverance. there are times we will hold hands and pray on our knees. truly, this is answered prayer in His divine timing.
nope... not a housewarming party, i can have a party anytime. i like gatherings and home party and most of all i like to entertain in my own home. from the invites, to the cooking, to the selection of music to finally cleaning and washing up. i am happy to do all that.
thanks for your wishes... pls do visit with your lady anytime u can
NMT, naahhhh .... you're not gonna be a beggar here. everything will be provided for u here except for your showing and travelling expenses.
i"m a good cook and i bake alot too. i dont drive so u have to go around in public transport. but one thing to note, i am capable of driving people up the wall ..
Heya Smart ... yes, i know right! i am so proud of my sons too, they helped to put that amount of money together to make this possible for all of us. thanks and have a great weekend.
angel baby & scott .. come come, pls make your plans and let me know the date.
i too have already planned. u both can have my master bedroom and i will bunk in with any of my sons. wake up for home prepared breakfast ... dont just live in the room. theres alot to see here in Singapore.
they fine u for every little thing .. drop your tissue and u pay SGD100 for littering or clock a certain amount of hours doing corrective works. that is go clean the beach or the national park ...
thanks and u can come too, if u ever have any intention to visit Singapore. it wud be so nice if all of us can make a date to come over. i will play a very good and wonderful host, i promise.
I hv a colleague who is looking for her family. She has a 8 month old baby staying with her parents while she works here. She last spoke to her sister lasi friday n since, she has been waiting to hear frm them.
It hurts to see her sitting at her workstation, tearing n taking out her mobile phone trying to make a call like every 15 to 20mins.
We knw what its like in such situations when we could just give up everything to hear a "Hello" fr9m a loved one at the other end of the line.
Yes, my heart goes out to those so badly affected n shall keep them all in prayer.
