Life Is But A Sojourn

A woman’s right
I am drawn to the attention of violence against women caused by men. Violence against women in any form is a crime, whether the abuser is a family member; someone you date; a current or past spouse, an acquaintance; or a stranger. The abuse can be physical, mental, and emotional.
There are clear signs to show if one is being abused. A friend of mine is living in such condition now and there’s nothing I can do to help her…
1) monitors what you’re doing all the time
2) criticizes you for little things
3) constantly accuses you of being unfaithful
4) prevents or discourages you from seeing friends or family, or going to work
5) gets angry when drinking alcohol or using drugs
6) controls how you spend your money
7) controls your use of needed medicines
humiliates you in front of others
9) destroys your property or things that you care about
10) threatens to hurt you, the children, or pets, or does hurt you (by hitting, beating, pushing, shoving, punching, slapping, kicking, or biting)
12) uses or threatens to use a weapon against you
13) forces you to have sex against your will
14) blames you for his or her violent outbursts
I hate myself for unable to do anything to help her. Even if a court order of protection may not be useful coz there’s no way she can escape. I pray hard that her saviour will come back to rescue her. Dear God please give her strength to pull through this darkest moment in her life.
Hear me grumble…
Went to buy my jiazhuang (嫁妆) things with mum. My ah Bao drove us there. At times I’ll get edgy when dealing with mum’s way of doing. Sighs… She’s alright lah, just abit blur though. :X Then after sending mum home with the stuffs, we went to collect our wedding albums! I should say I’m WOW after seeing our photos. Heehee!!! Over at the bridal studio, my so-called Godmother said I look slimmer. *LOL* That makes my day. Who will like to hear lousy comments? Then, we had our Aijisen dinner @ Bugis then headed to PS to look for our bedding stuffs. Aussino does not have what we want… Haiz… 怎么办?
As always since a long time ago, I’ll get very fed up. Everything to me are out of the way. Especially when people start to ask stupid questions. Many things can be solve using simple common sense but how come some people did not want to use their brain and love to ask something silly to make a fool of themselves??? I feel so idiot for answering those stupid questions. Argghhhh!!!!~ Stupidity is a SIN!!! Please think before you talk!!! And please don’t criticize something which you don’t know coz making someone down will NEVER makes you look better.
Sick enough, I’ve gotta go to work tomorrow. And dear God please make my day happy!
A very nice song –>《退后》- 周杰伦
天空灰的像哭过
离开你以后
并没有更自由
酸酸的空气
嗅出我们的距离
一幕椎心的结局
像呼吸般无法停息
抽屉泛黄的日记
榨干了回忆
那笑容是夏季
你我的过去
被顺时针的忘记
缺氧过后的爱情
粗心的眼泪是多余
我知道你我都没有错
只是忘了怎么退后
信誓旦旦给的承诺
却被时间扑了空
我知道我们都没有错
只是放手会比较好过
最美的爱情回忆里带去
天空灰的像哭过
离开你以后
并没有更自由
酸酸的空气
嗅出我们的距离
一幕椎心的结局
像呼吸般无法停息
抽屉泛黄的日记
榨干了回忆
那笑容是夏季
你我的过去
被顺时针的忘记
缺氧过后的爱情
粗心的眼泪是多余
我知道你我都没有错
只是忘了怎么退后
信誓旦旦给的承诺
却被时间扑了空
我知道我们都没有错
只是放手会比较好过
最美的爱情回忆里待续
我知道我们都没有错
只是放手会比较好过
最美的爱情回忆里待续
Thankful
It’s a Saturday. I woke up at 11am, after my earlier lunch, I started to do my stuffs. I managed to load up the new stocks for my sunshinedoll.com and that’s not the end… I still have lots more to put up. But no time to accomplish my things coz I will be going out later with ah Bao. We are going to his auntie’s house to celebrate birthday for his two little nieces.
Looking at the ticker above this blog, it says 5 kg to go until I reach my goal weight. Haha! I wanna lose weight. And I lost 1kg since last week. Yeah!
It has been a busy week. Haiz~ I’m thankful coz it means that I am still alive. *LOL*
It’s a Blink Blink Sunday! *LOL*
Sunday. We woke up late. Had our late lunch at 2pm. Then, reached the hotel at about 2+. We began to look around and took photographs. Hee! There was a couple married in the restuarant… They were having wedding lunch. Kinda weird coz usually such thing will happen in the night. We saw the newly wedded couple walked in the restuarant together with the bridemaids. Really weird. And one bad thing was I got a bad headache and cold sweating. I don’t know what was wrong with me, just feeling miserable. We then went off and drove over to Wisma to buy our wedding bands.
We went to Aspiral, Soo Kee and Goldheart. After much consideration and comparison, we shortlisted 2 types of wedding bands – Aspiral Destinee 0.11 carat diamond rings and Soo Kee Brilliant Rose 0.7 carat diamond rings. I decided to go for Soo Kee’s wedding band as it is very clean, simple and elegant. We didn’t chose Goldheart Celestial coz the ring design was not appealing though the diamond is very very beautiful.
Today my future-parents in law brought me to buy the Si Di Jin. They wanted me to choose the design I like. After looking around the gold shop, I got blurred. So many choices and so many designs. But most of them are quite oldie look. *Ops* Hee… But I managed to pick a quite trendy design for the si dian jin.
Today ended fast. Tomorrow gotta work again. Thank god my current job is not a perm one… Just wish to settle my wedding, leave the place and start off my entreprenuer path – fulltime!!! Hee~ Mark me… I will be success!!!
Can’t you see I’m not feeling well?!?!?!
Didn’t go to work today… Feeling unwell since morning and as well don’t go for work.
This Friday is the Mooncake Festival (or Lantern Festival). I’ve got lots of mooncake at home… My future-in-laws gave us lots of yummy mooncakes. I only touched on one mooncake for now. Too much mooncakes are sinful. Hahaha!!!~ Ah Bao is working on Friday… Haiz~ I planned to play lanterns with him. The other day we passed by a shop and was selling those paper lanterns… so tempting to buy back a few to play but didn’t. Come to think of it… I’m still so childish leh! (^_^)
Recently the weather is hazy and that ‘chau ta’ smell is unbearable. When can I see the clear blue sky again? Miss those days at Sentosa…
