Not funny? Okay...okay okay...
I'm reading "Be Careful What You Wish for", sometimes it's not a good thing when every dreams you wish come true, it's kind of creepy when you think of this idea...
Like, you wish you are a multi millionaire, the next day you win lottery, you run around your neighborhood with the ticket yelling screaming
"OOOOOOH MY GOD I'M RICH I'M RICH I'm fucking RICH NOW I don't have to work for the rest of my life WOOOHOOOOOO!!!!"

The next day your neighbour kidnap you, chop your fingers off... send it to your mum and ask her to pay 100,000,00.00 (ok that's too much let says 50,000,00.00 still a lot HAHAHA) otherwise your toes will be chopped next. You wouldn't lose your fingers if your dream doesn't come true.

Okay maybe that's too much, if you didn't scream that "OOOOOOH MY GOD I'M RICH I'M RICH I'm fucking RICH NOW I don't have to work for the rest of my life WOOOHOOOOOO!!!!" your neighbours wouldn't know a thing, put the money in bank? Ooh no that's a huge amount of money...you know the bank manager has got 2 evil horns, better be safe than sorry! You then decided to bury it at the backyard...Oh shit!!! You didn't realize your neighbour saw it!!! The next day they break into your house, dig that money and saw... "Ahh...very nice iPad (LOL) iTampon (it's ok that's cheap I will get it in store myself)" and guess what, you lose all your money and your itampon iPad (Okay I admit I'm just being jealous, I want iPad too) -_-"

....Too much?
Err...okay, let's say your neighbour didn't see it...a month later your whole house collapses because your dog just wouldn't stop digging your backyard until your house collapsed HAHAHA that's "I.M.Possible" (as in a word, or a simple sentence pun intended), well that's because you accidentally buried your dog's dry kibbles when you buried your money. "Gimme back my nom nom, gimme back my nom nom..." well that's a very hardworking furkid O_o"

Enough craps..
What I wanted to tell is, everything can happen so quickly, nothing is impossible. I almost finish the whole book, I found this phrase tells it all..
Pg 90, "...we think we know what we want, but we can never really know until we've got it. And sometimes when we have, we discover we never really wanted it in the first place-but then it's too late" Ed wished for a day off with Lou, his wish came true...because he went down with flu. Nobody wants a day off lying on bed (uuh maybe that's not a bad idea).

It gives me the shivers...imagining my family members, my loved one or me being hurt because we win lottery (LOL! We didn't, I'm just saying if one of my very greedy wishes come true... super hilarious because I don't buy lottery, how to win this way?!). Hardly fell asleep last night, "a small spark can start a great fire" quote by Emmet Fox... this book actually gives me 2nd thought of my life.

We always wish for a better life, but we will never know until "we have better life", remember the movie "Click"? Adam Sandler has the universal remote control, he fast forwarded his life to the "successful stage".. he opened his eyes...realized his beloved wife is no longer with him... so is this called successful? He may not even wanted a "successful career" if he knew he would lose his wife this way...Why? Because in order to be a successful man, he focused on his career, he neglected his wife, neglected his family...sacrificed his health.
So is this what he really wanted? He deeply regret later in his life, just because his life was 1 click away, too many changes in a few secs, he couldn't accept. What if if it's not a click away? Maybe he will never know until years later.. that he never wanted to be "that successful man". Hmmm actually I watched that movie some years ago, I don't quite remember the plot and storyline, I hope I didn't go too far from the story ;)

Sigh...just like, I wish Jason Mraz would be my next date (LOL), if this dream comes true, it means I will lose a man who loves me more than he loves himself, I'm sure I couldn't afford to lose him, just...be careful what you wish for, because you might just get it

Theobroma Chocolate Lounge

Last year Christmas Kevin and I went to Theobroma Chocolate Lounge, One Utama for sweets. It has been quite a while since our last visit, ignored my tea session with Lina a month ago, and breakfast with Christine at the airport ;)
My man


I was surprised they sell vanilla sundae, I don't remember they sell ice cream


The taste was OK, I still prefer McD's




Ordered Miss Coco (Belgian Dark Chocolate) and Madam Eskimo (Mocha?)


Miss Coco


Madam Eskimo


Hahaha, vanilla snow ball to go with it






:)


I'm not sure Kevin, but I'm sure loving Chocolate Lounge ;)


Ooh yeah, some pictures taken on the same day.
Tze Tsu, Kevin's friend. His wife is actually my Secondary schoolmate, different class :)
This is their 1st son, very adorable right?


And she just delivered a baby boy, 2 months old :)


Tiny and cute...I want to have babies too! :D

Shenzhen Day 2

Had breakfast in the hotel we stayed
Hmm..."China style"


Yam and sweet potatoes


Hard-boiled eggs


Breads


Man tao 馒头


Very oily veggies




First station, 中国民俗文化村. aka 深圳锦绣中华民俗村 (ShenZhen Splendid China Folk Culture Village)


Tour package we purchased didn't include entrance tickets of the theme park, but yet we still need to "drop by" the place because the photographer (a young girl) hired by the tour agency NEED to take our photo...you know, they will print photos taken (the same day), put it in frame and sell it you.
It was not we're stingy and refused to buy entrance ticket, but the theme park is huge, really huge (like there were several theme parks in the theme park itself, aiya I don't know la, google yourself!)...you need to spend at least 2 days over here, this is what we were told. I just reluctant to pay and only get to enjoy 2 hours, we have to follow the agenda prepared. And by the way my mum and I went to 世界之窗some years ago ;)

Err...I'm not sure if you realized the shirt Kevin's wearing...it was the same piece I wore night before :P





We have camera, we didn't see why we would purchase photos from them. Ahh...anyway, we bought it end of the day, that was a different story...the girl was sincere :)


Me, now only I realized how ridiculous my hair was -_-"
and HEY! That top....What happened to me?!




Looking back at these photos...
I just don't understand why I wore that top, why I bothered to buy it?! Even my mum thought it looked...like something young girl wouldn't wear. I'm not that old :(




The tour guide suggested to take monorail, it oversees the entire theme park and part of the city, with erm...how much? I forgot, the price was reasonable, took around 20-30 minutes






Leaflets, it showed area covered per trip


Waiting for train


About 5 minutes later, we're in train! I thought we have to wait at least 20 minutes ;)


Random photos (taken in train)




















Rainbow staircases!


It was wonderful :)
It definitely deserved more pics:P


Tempted to go down for a cup of coffee..


Us two :)










See the globe? Impressive...
















Met 2 girls from HK, they told me they spent 2 days in the theme park! They were so cute, I think they are...18-20 years old? ;)


It's not that I'm that tall...they are mini! LOL


Had our lunch..




Winter melon soup








Next station...another theme park
O_o
That was a very different theme park ;)
