I was wondering if I would get one of these electric bicycles in UK and send my kids to school using such transportation.
ITs great to move around the traffic in the busiest traffic time, its electric = no emissions. Its a fun way of doing a chore. WE could even go to Somerfields in Danescourt easily for a last minute shopping..
Hmmm, now is it road legal?? Price?
I just want to put this in our diary, in case I cannot in future say this for whatever reasons.
I, NRIC 80XXXXXY, Tan Allan, truly, deeply, madly love my wife, past, present and future. Even though I do not say this everyday, it does not means that I do not care about you. I want you to know that, everything I do is for the better of our future, just like the things that you do right now, taking great care of our children.
I want you to remember that being a mum who sacrifice her career and looking after the children is noble and great, and the advantages are only reflected when they grow older.
I love my wife and I want you to know that I did not love you for your body, but rather your inner self that complement me as a person. You think of my interest everytime and constantly reminds me (some called it nagging : lol) just like I do the same for you. Your inner beauty really gives me the assurance that you will be a great wife, mother and daughter.
Given the chance to turn back time, with all the possible girlfriends, I would still walk the path that we walked before and choose you to share my life with, only thing different would be I would make you feel more important and give you much more than you deserve.
I am no poet, hence you will not see this blog post in a book that will be on Top of New York Times, but rest assure that, if there is a Top ranking for I Love My Wife in the search engines, I will make sure I am ranked number 1!! I love my wife more than anything in this world.
Facebook is phasing out FBML (facebook markup language) on 11th March 2011, and for developers or internet marketers who are using it to setup fanpages, they will need a way to counter the change to iframes.

Reading on Warren Buffet and Sharon Osberg, and I cannot help but laugh at this section of the story,
Then there was the time he nearly cost me my world status: We’d never played together in a tournament before, let alone a world championship. We were huge underdogs to qualify for the finals, but God bless us, we qualified, at which point Warren said, “I can’t do this anymore. It’s so stressful. Tell them I have a business emergency. Tell them anything.” So I go and try to tell the officials my partner has a business emergency—they were furious. We were probably the only couple ever to qualify for a world championship and withdraw without one of us dying.

One of my mentors just told me:
US stock market crash is coming.
Here are the signs:
1. I cannot find undervalued stocks for large cap and middle cap stocks in US stock market using my stock pick strategy. The last time I cannot find undervalued stock was during 2008, then stock market crashed big time.
2…. Investor funds start to flow into US small cap stocks. In a stock market, there are big cap, middle cap and small cap stocks. When the small cap stocks start to rally, that is a sign that the rally is at the last stage.
3. Oil price is at $106 now and still continue to rise. High oil stock is damaging to a lot of industries.
4. Middle east unrest is causing disrupting effect to companies that have offices there or has business dealings there. Nobody know when it will end. And it may spread to other parts of middle east.
My portfolio is 70% in cash now. Planning to sell my Bank of America to raise more cash.
So what can you do when the market is bearish? Trade stocks when you can find good stocks, and trade stocks options with my other mentor’s conservative option trading strategies to continue to make money in the stock market even when the market is moving downwards.
It’s been awhile since I heard from some friends… But then again, there are some friends where I hear from often, no matter the distance… There are new friends and there are old friends… Some are good and some are bad…
I’ve been reflecting recently… Maybe it’s because I will be leaving this place soon and going back to my former life? Will things be the same? Look forward and never look back? What is friendship and how do we define it?
Here is an interesting article which I read… and I thought it would be good to share…
“One of my professors once told us to diversify our own personalities, and today I am very grateful to him for his advice, because I make a conscious effort to accept someone without judgments. These days, we name almost any relation as a “friend.” Do we really think what kind of friend we are to another, or what kind of friends we are actually looking for?
To me, friendship is a relationship where both individuals can have a great time together, with whom there are less ego fights, with whom I can have open conversations, and who will prove loyal. A good friend always appreciates the good qualities in a friend, tries to mend the negative qualities, and encourages an honest and open relation. A good friend is a sense of inspiration and motivation. Good friends learn from each others’ mistakes.
Based on my experiences, I have explored the different types of friends I have found in my life, and what we can expect from each of these types.
1. Professional Friends – This group is for professional networking. At the beginning of the relationship, most of the conversations are about topics of mutual interest in specific professions, and then it can gradually take a more personal turn. In this friendship, the expectation is to learn, exchange information, ideas, concepts and grow professionally. A lot of these friendships are formed in professional organizations like Economic Club of New York, Project Management Institute, and 100 Women in Hedgefunds. Most of these relationships grow deeper when both individuals can provide professional expertise and insights. We can find these friends at workplace also. Sometimes, they take the form of mentors, or someone we can count on in future. As we grow professionally, this group tends to increase more. This is where professional and business etiquette must be practiced.
2. Social Friends – This group of friendship is formed in social service clubs like Rotary International, Lions Clubs, and Kiwanis International. This group is conscious about social issues and also wants to network in a less formal setting than the professional friends circle. This group of friends volunteers their time, money and efforts to work on social causes, and get public recognition for the same. The budding professionals can take leadership roles to take and execute responsibilities, and to promote and sell their skills. We can also find a group like this in major corporations like Asian Heritage Network group of Citigroup.
3. Deep/Emotional Friends – Friends in this group are very few. This group of friends tends to have an intellectual appetite, but usually have perceived and experienced life through various relationships. This friends group will be there to support us during the ups and downs of life. Sometimes, we can find these friendships between married women, mother and daughter, close sisters. These are the friends who we will grow old with.
4. Intellectual Friends – This group has a very curious and intellectual mindset. We can talk about anything without being embarrassed. Friends in this group are very few. The difference between the Emotional and Intellectual friends is that the latter understand situations logically without mixing feelings. Usually this group of friends is considerate, matured, well-developed and have their own fulfilled lives. Sometimes, these groups of friends are so busy in their own pursuits and quests of life that they might not be able to offer the time, but when they do, it is mutually fulfilling.
5. Self-Actualized Friends – Friends in this group are the perfect combination and are very rare to find. These friends have an amazing appetite for intellectual conversation, are open to discuss about life experiences, take care of their own needs, have less complaints about life in general and respect others views of life. In addition to that, they will love to invest time to grow emotionally, professionally, intellectually, socially, and spiritually, know how to laugh and enjoy life also. These friends will not try to change others, but will appreciate and respect the differences. Probably, we will grow old with this group of friends. The friends in this group volunteer to give us feedback and advice about different aspects of life, not only because they care about us, but want positive things to happen in our lives.
6. Buddy Friends – This is a very informal group of friends, who meet informally to have a great time together. A lot of Meet Up groups fall under this category. This is the group who are usually college students, high school students, and singles. These friends usually go to the clubs, bars, happy hours, discos. There is not much intellectual connection, professional connection, because the people in this group still does not have the need to explore more serious matters of life, or might not feel the comfort to seek advice on any issues.
7. School Friends (Memory Revisiting) – There are a lot of friends in this group. If we have not kept in touch, most of them are acquaintances at this stage. Most likely we have changed, since we last saw them and they have changed also. We will meet them at reunions, alumni events. Most of the conversations are nostalgic and about the “good old days.””

1) We have 2 beautiful children – Chloe born 4th Feb 2009, Andre born 25th Aug 2010
2) We are approaching our 3rd wedding Anniversary (1st July 2007)… Leather
3) We have known each other since June 1998. Oh my, that’s nearly 12 years!
4) We dated from 2nd July 2003, 22:04 hrs!
5) My current jobs include catering, child-minding, domestic cleaner, dish washer, laundrette.. Basically, a perfect housewife?!?!? Lol
6)
I dropped off Chloe to playgroup/school this morning… As normal, I would give her a little snack along the way… Today, I gave it slightly later, so, upon arriving at school, she was still munching away..
Teacher: Do you feed Chloe enough food?
Me: Why do you say that?
Teacher: She’s always so hungry!
Me: She’s always eating!!
Teacher: We asked her whether she drinks milk and she said yes.. Yesterday, she finished her snacks you packed and there were lots, but she just kept saying ‘Some more, some more’!!
Me: *Thinking in my mind… That’s my girl!!*….. I then went on to explain her routine to the teacher…
Oh my, for those who know our little Chloe, whose tummy is not so little… she loves to eat! Sometimes, it worries me that she eats so much?!?!? Maybe she has worms – but it can’t be, cos she’s not losing weight! But then, I shouldn’t need to worry because she’s not obese either!! She just loves food!! Good really!
Chloe’s routine:
7am Wake-up, 200ml milk
8am Breakfast
If there’s school: 9:20am snack, 9:30am school starts, then 11:30am snack at school
If there’s no school: 10am snack
12 midday Lunch
1-3pm Nap time
3:30pm Snack
5pm Dinner
6pm Bath
6:30pm 200ml milk
7pm Bedtime
Then the whole process repeats itself!!! Seems ok, right?!?!?

This evening I went for a full body Swedish massage… Done a few in UK, and only once in Singa… Tonight would be my second time (in a long time) for this type of massage here… Thought it would be a good idea, as my body was aching due to the many months of looking after Andre… He’s only 5.5 months and already weighs over 9.5kg!!
I totally forgot how the feeling was! I would describe it like a session at the chiropracters (vigorous and bracing) and a session at a relaxing spa (slow and gentle)! The massage therapists used some sort of massage oil to facilitate smooth, gliding strokes.. Then there was a bit of kneading, friction, stretching and tapping! It was at this point that my mind started to wander! It’s weird how I then thought of myself as some sort of dough on a worktop – being keaded, thrown in the air, some water/oil added to provide some sort of smoothness etc!
As I flipped back and fore between relaxed and embraced mode – my mind would wander even more! At one point, the massage therapist ‘sat’ on my back (well not literally!) so that she could target my back.. the pressure she used on my shoulders and upper back was quite firm, to achieve the deeper muscle massage!… It’s weird how I thought that my breastmilk would all squirt out!!! Lol!! It didn’t ofcos!!!
Then when I was lying flat on my tummy, she did this crazy stretch, where she lifts your leg upwards towards your head and diagonally towards the opposite shoulder (if you’re understanding what I’m trying to explain!?)… I then thought about ‘what if I or someone let out a massive fart?!?!?’ I mean, it’s natural, when you’re relaxed – these things may happen.. and OFCOS, I didn’t do that!!!!
Anyways, it’s weird how you have these weird and wonderful thoughts that make you giggle, in the most normal situations!

I think Chloe will grow up to love accessories! But then again, I love it too!
Just a few random pics of her ‘dressing up’!
