I saw a bear in Singapore!

Last week, a video of a 'bear' in Ulu Pandan appeared.

A bear in Singapore and at a bus stop, trying to find food from a dustbin.
"Wow.. how exciting Singapore got.." i thought to myself..

However, after the big 'Hoo-Ha' of the police, as well as tens of men and women from Animal Concerns Research and Education Society (Acres) and Wildlife Reserves Singapore who scoured the area for hours..
It turned out to be a marketing campaign!

Imagine the manpower and resources wasted, due to a about 10 seconds video clip of the bear..

You can read more HERE.

Our Mr Brown, also did a funny video of it, and i must share with you all!
Haha! =)



Run Bear Bear, Bear Bear, Run Run..

Anyway, where they got the costume, who was wearing it huh?

Mizuno Wave Run - 10.10.10

What a special date for today!
If you din realize, today is 10 Oct 2010, and in numerical, it is: 10.10.10 ! =)

And today is also the Mizuno Wave Run, a 10km run.
Today's run had a mixture of those sandy areas, and pavement areas. Personally, i was walking a little too much today, and i guess my timing would be very bad for this run. (oops!!)

After about 3km distance mark, my right knee area started to feel pain, and i had to walk, plus jog a little.. but still i finished the whole run, which is what i am aiming.

*pat pat ownself* =)


A picture to show you today's crowd..

My tag number and the singlet given..

Another Finisher Medal for collection. =)

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

My Singapore friends, did you happened to read the Today's newspaper last Friday, and so happened to see a PSB Academy graduands list? 

Anyway, did you see a famailar name..? (Hint.. Hint..)

Come, i help you........

It's my name!!! Haha... 

So proud of myself. =P 

And now, its for a new chapter of my life.

A new direction, and hopefully everything flows smoothly..

=)

Cousin Wedding - 2 Oct 2010

Attended my cousin, Li Yun's wedding dinner with mum last night.

We were born about the same time.. and mum often brings me over to her place. In my memory, I can still remember the days when we were still in our cloth diapers, playing with each other, snatching each other toys.. the loser cries(of course!) Haha!!

And in the blink of an eye, twenty years down the road, last night i see her getting married!


The stage..


The table settings..


The lovely couple.. <3


The traditional 'Yum Seng' from all of us..

It was also a type of family gathering for the older generation (mum and uncles).
Therefore i was not spared the toasting with the relatives (luckily i got some trainings), so did not get drunk. Wee Wee.. LoL

However, how good i hide, or cover my face with the table cloth, i was still being bombarded with the "when is your turn?" by many of them..

-___-||

But anyway, i am very happy to see her finding her man, and getting married!
It was a great gathering! =)


<3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3

My first time..

Everyone have a first time...



Why this picture?


This is the picture i took, in my sunglasses (and with my contact lens!) Haha...
My first time wearing contact lens, after so many years, when all my friends around have actually been doing it for so long...

What kept me so long from wearing contact lens?

FEAR.

Fear of the contact lens, missing..
Fear of the contact lens, dropping out when im outside...
Fear of seeing my finger near my own eyes!

My friends help me to overcome it.
The whole lot of them, with a mirror, and my trial contact lens, guided and watched me put on the contact lens for the first time. LoL

It's actually not that scary!!!

When you are more 'skillful' with it, its quite fast, actually.

For those first timers, i got links for you to read, and this helps me too.

Some videos --> HERE

Cheers~! =)

The Mid-Autumn Festival, 中秋节

Happy Mid-Autumn Festival! =)

Source
The Mid-Autumn Festival, also known as the Moon Festival or Zhongqiu Festival (traditional Chinese: 中秋節; simplified Chinese: 中秋节; falls on the 15th day of the eighth month in the Chinese calendar.

With source from Wiki, it is also a night when the moon is supposedly at its fullest and roundest. So did you managed to see the moon tonight? =)

Wiki also listed some additional cultural or regional customs things we should do during this day....

• Carrying brightly lit lanterns, lighting lanterns on towers, floating sky lanterns
• Burning incense in reverence to deities including Chang'e (Chinese: 嫦娥; pinyin: Cháng'é)
• Planting Mid-Autumn trees
• Collecting dandelion leaves and distributing them evenly among family members
• Fire Dragon Dances
• Putting pomelo rinds on one's head
• In Taiwan, since the 1980s, barbecuing meat outdoors has become a widespread way to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival.

Hmmm.. looking at this list, those that i done before are: carrying of lanterns, eating of mooncakes, and hoping to see 嫦娥.. Hehe!! =P

Last year, i was with my friend, Tian Fa and his friends, carrying lanterns at Ang Mo Kio park, and eating mooncakes. Few years back, we still meet up to play candles, chit chat...
I guess everyone's busy this time around.. and my dinner appointment was being cancelled last minute too.. so its a stay home mooncake festival for me. =)

So how's your mooncake festival? did you see the moon??
What ever it is, this song is for all of my dear friends! =)
