A life with love will have some thorns, but a life without love will have no roses.

This post is dedicated to the sweet one who gave me these gorgeous white roses... for no reason at all. It is very rare indeed to be on the receiving end of such thoughtful gestures... gros bisous! xoxox

Legendary.

wow, bloggers all over the world are posting up their comments and views on the recent passing away of Michael Jackson.. it is very sad indeed, but what i don't understand is why is everyone suddenly so sad? he was bashed mercilessly when he was still alive. does he have to die in order for everyone to start appreciating him? i, for one, have never said anything nasty about him...

i'm a big fan of britney spears too, and i hear people gossiping about her front left right and centre... does she have to leave this earth too in order to get the recognition she deserves for her work? surely it is not easy to be in her shoes. and i have full confidence that she will rise again to her former glory... and yes i feel for her too, because 1) she is easily misunderstood, 2) she is just as vulnerable as the next person and 3) she has the talent and will to reach her full potential... she just doesn't know it yet...

...now, it is time to transform yourself..

Happy birthday to Hj Hj and Edde..

Happy happy birthday to you both...

Many happy returns on this special day

and for many more years to come!

I bought you guys a cake but someone ate it all. i swear it wasn't me. LOL

This came with my new mouse.

I really don't understand what it means..? :-)

Megeve!

Just an hour away from Geneva, we found a sweet french town, Megeve.. Did the cheesy tourist thing... which i have to admit, i enjoyed very much... :-)

we stopped here to ask where the Megeve tourism office was..

the town itself is actually on a mountain..

the replica of the mountain - on display at the tourism office.

we sneaked quietly into a church to have a look...

what... terrible kids? :-)

sweet!

had nutella and banana filled crepes here... yum! there were more people inside

bumped into some old friends... hehe it's been a while...

a wedding took place at the same time

is that a scare crow? interesting

a nice place to chill after a long day walking around town

kids would LOVE this. tree house + swings + rock climbing wall.

megeve from the mountain top

kiss!

ok for this - i was just mucking around with the new canon.

the end!

The Verdict.

Yes.. the forbidden fruit is always sweeter.
But how long can it keep you interested?

The Forbidden Fruit is always sweeter.

You want things that you can't have.. and you don't want it when it's not in demand. Could this be true? This week i'm putting this theory to the test. Do I want this thing that I can't have? especially when it's the total opposite of what i'm looking for or used to... i'm almost afraid to find out that it could be too good to be true.. at the same time, i can't help but think that all this could just very well be a wonderful dream. Then! if that's the case, i hope i don't ever wake up from it! LOL.

Things are getting interesting, indeed.

You're not all that.

I find it highly annoying when people bully you into making decisions that have no bearing what-so-ever on their own lives. We like to refer to these individuals as pushy, bossy, know-it-all... but my favourite one is 'wannabe'. Wannabes think the world revolves around them and think they are born on this earth to be Gods. Get real, bro.

As far as i'm concerned, you shouldn't give any advice when you are in no position to do so. Do you have the first hand experience, the knowledge and intelligence to do so? If you are so perfect in your perfect little world, then why are you still slaving for an organisation which thinks lesser of you than the rest of us mere mortals? You would be living the dream right now otherwise. Anyways, fine. You can give some advice on what you think should be done, but no way in hell should you force these thoughts onto others. I will take it if I think it's worth doing, and won't if i didnt think it was the right thing to do. and why do you have this look on your face when i tell you off? shocking. i've mentioned this in my blog a few times before too, if i do in fact make a mistake, then let it be a mistake for ME to make. we are humans after all.

Things are getting purtyy HOT in Geneva.. :-)

summer is here.. the weather is nice. the seductresses are on the prowl. it's hunting season... and mating season, for some. LOL. as for me, since i'm a good gurl and all... i'm going on holiday instead. looking forward to the castle-like hotels... cool pool... evening strolls... taking pictures... enjoying ice-cream... relaxing massages... maybe even paint.

just a few more days to go.

Look out.

Always leave loved ones with loving words,

it may be the last time you see them.

Always keep your words soft and sweet,

just in case you have to eat them.

Japan here we come!

Congratulations, Sir Nosferatus! you're going to Japan soon!! we are all so, so proud of you. I'm coming to visit!! You gotta take me to all the cool places..! hehehe

hey i'm trying to get my pic taken here, sis! excusseeee meee LOL

Plans. Plans. Plans.

Everybody got plans, God has plans. I got plans... but! i've never really sat down and thought about it! LOL. i have no clue as to where i DO want to be... but i have a general idea of where i DON'T want to be... hahaha that's a start!

i remember being so frustrated in uni... cos i couldn't decide which place suits me best.. in terms of working life, social life, family life... well, just life! for some who know me through and through... i think you've heard me hint about these things every now and then. now that i've worked in three different places (long term)... i can now make a reasonable judgment on what type of environment i am most comfortable in.

of course like everything else, nothing is set in concrete. anything can happen between this time of writing and say, a few months. God knows really. as for now, i'm enjoying my life... i love my family... my two best friends... and certain special people. you know who you are... i am blessed to meet you in this life... you have helped me get through with my own issues..

the times where you feel sorry for your little self is over. i think everyone goes through these stages in their lives. but there comes to a point where all the drama has to stop. you are going to be great! you will excel in whatever you put your heart and soul into. and unlike others, you will not self-destruct.. you're going to be a great alpha. heartless. cold. unpredictable. and yes, damn beautiful. people will love to hate you. LOL

now, that's a plan...

Out of Range.

Sorry y'all... no updates for this week. Got another delegation in town... so I will be off the radar for a couple of days...

Be proud of who you are.

People like to complain. Me included, of course! LOL. We say we have too much work. We're not making enough money. People don't appreciate us. Bla bla bla. So much drama. I say screw that! You're lucky to even have a job! To make SOME money! Who wants to appreciate you when you don't even appreciate yourself? Come on man, every one has their own battles to deal with... and the last thing they wanna do is to comfort you when you feel sorry for yourself.

When you fall off the horse, don't just sit there and wish, and hope, and pray, that someone will conveniently pass by and help you up. It doesn't work that way. GET UP, STAND TALL and PUSH YOURSELF UP.

Hell, cos I won't.

Patience is a virtue, especially for an Aries female.

The count down starts now... the answer will reveal itself... in due time. So I gotta use everything in my will power to refrain myself from chucking a fit.. LOL
