If an egg was fertilized, implantation (when the embryo implants to the lining of her uterus) happens, on average, about 7 days past ovulation.

 

It can happen as early as five days past ovulation or as late as twelve days past ovulation.

 

Now is in the phase of cycle where implantation may occur. Although implantation may be visible on her chart (triphasic pattern, dip and/or spotting) it is not always visible even on pregnancy charts. This is the most stressful waiting phase. It is generally too early to test.

 

 

2 days has gone

Since yesterday, I re-start my diet plan again. Below is the my menu.

 

Breakfast is a cup of milk tea with 1 bread that is near my office.

 

Lunch .... guess what. From a full bowl of chicken rice reduce to a small plate of Luo-Mai-Kei + milk tea.

 

Dinner ? ?  Slight smaller than normal meal.

 

Of course all meal come with heavy intake of nicotine which we call it "Cow-Boy" blue color, cost me $9.60 in a normal coffee shop.

 

Hope that when I report back for my ICT can reduce the weight to 64 kg again. I dun wan to be called by anyone  . . "Fatty".

 

Wish me good luck.

 

 

The Heart Sutra

The Heart Sutra

(The Prajna-Paramita-Hrdaya Sutra)

 

When Bodhisattva Avalokitesvara practices the profound Prajna-paramita, he intuitively realizes that the five aggregates (skandhas) are of Sunyata nature thus securing his deliverance from all distress and sufferings.

Sariputra! Form (rupa) does not differ from Sunyata, nor Sunyata from form. Form is identical with Sunyata (and) Sunyata is identical with form. So also are reception (vedana), conception (sanjna), mental conduct (samskara) and consciousness (vijnana) in relation to Sunyata.

Sariputra, the Sunyata nature of all things is neither created nor annihilated; neither impure nor pure; and neither increasing nor decreasing.

Therefore, in Sunyata, there is neither form (rupa), reception (vedana), conception (sanjna), mental conduct (samskara), nor consciousness (vijnana); there is neither eye, ear, nose, tongue, body nor mind; there is neither form, sound, odor, flavor, feeling nor idea; there are no such things as the eighteen realms of sense (dhatus) from the realm of sight up to that of the faculty of mind (vijnana); there are no such things as the twelve links in the chain of existence (nidanas) from ignorance (avidya) with also the end of ignorance up to old age and death (jaramarana) with also the end of old age and death; there are no (such things as) the four noble truths and there is neither Wisdom nor obtainment.

Because of no obtainment, Bodhisattvas who rely on Prajna-paramita, have no hindrance in their minds, and since they have no hindrance, they have no fear, are free from perversive and delusive ideas and attain the Ultimate Nirvana.

All Buddhas of the past, present and future attain the Full Enlightenment (anuttara-samyak-sambodhi) by relying on Prajna-paramita. So we know that Prajna-paramita is the great supernatural Mantra, the great bright, unsurpassed and unequalled Mantra which can truly and without fail wipe out all sufferings.

Therefore, He uttered the Prajna-paramita mantra which reads:

Gate, Gate, Paragate, Parasamgate Bodhi Svaha!

NKF petition

I had signed, how abt you ?

http://www.petitiononline.com/nkfs/petition.html

Batam Island

Batam Island, located just 20 kilometers southeast of Singapore, with area around two-third the size of Singapore is one of the largest islands in Indonesia's Riau Archipelago.

 

If I take a ferry from Singapore Harbourfront center. It will only take me 1 hours and 15mins to reach the ferry point at Batam Island which is known as "Batam Center".

 

We are planning to go back this weekend (16/17 July). But I pull back and think about it. . . reason ? I duno why.

 

Maybe I still feel unsafe to leave my youngest brother at home alone over the weekend. Who know whether he will bring his gal friend to stay over night or not ? or some unknown visitors.

 

Sigh ~ ~  At the same time, if go back to Batam ... what can I do ? Massage again ? Shopping ? Eating ?  hmmmmh...... I wonder which hotel should I stay again this round.

 

 

Do you know why are you working so hard ?

On the very first day of the world, God created the cow.

He said to the cow: "Ah Gu (cow), today I have created you. Your job is to go to the field with the farmer all day long. You will provide the energy to pull things. You will also provide milk for people to drink. You are to work all day under the sun. In return, you will only eat grass. For that, you will have a life span of 50 years."

Ah Gu objected.

"What, I work all day in the sun and I get only to eat grass? On top of that, I have to give my milk away? This is tough and you want me to live 50 years? I'll take 20 and you can have the remaining 30 years back."

God agreed.

On the next day, God created the dog. He said to the dog: "Ah Kow (dog), I have created you for a purpose. You are to sit all day by the door of your master's house.
Should anyone come in, you are to bark at them. In return, you will eat your master's leftovers. I'll give you a life span of 20 years."

Ah Kow objected.

" What, I have to sit by the door all day and will need to bark at people, and what do I get? Leftovers. This isn't right, I'll take 10 and you can have the remaining 10 years back."

God agreed again.

On the third day, God created the monkey. He said to the monkey: "Lao Kao (monkey), your job is to entertain people. You will make them laugh, act stupid and make faces. You will also do somersaults and swing on trees to amaze them.
In return, you will get to eat bananas and peanuts. For that, I'll give you 20 years to live."

Naturally the monkey objected.

"This is ridiculous, I gotta make faces and make people laugh? Let's not even come to the part about the trees and somersaults. Tell you what, I'll give 10 years of my life to thank you for my existence and I'll take 10. What do you think?"

God agreed again.

On the forth day, God created humans. God said to the man: "You are my best piece of work, for that, you will only need to sleep, eat, sleep, play, eat, sleep again and do nothing else. You will get to eat all the best things and play with the best toys. All you need to do is enjoy all your life. For this kind of life, I'll give you 20 years."

Just like the rest, the man objected.

"What, all I need to do is relax and enjoy myself and I have only 20 years to live?
Tell you what, you've 30 years back from Ah Gu, 10 years from Ah Kow and another 10 from Lao Kao and you probably don't know what to do with all those lives. Why not I take them all and I'll have 70 years to live?"

God being such good natured, agreed with a smile.

And that is why:

We eat, sleep, play and enjoy for the first 20 years of our lives when we are growing up. Work like a cow for the next 30 to raise our family. Sit outside the door and bark at people for the next 10 when we are retired. And finally, we make faces and perform monkey tricks to entertain our grandchildren for the final 10 years.

Getting better ? I think so . .

I'm not pissed off at him for moving in. I just dun like this type of arrangement where I dun have a choice to say "No!" to him. People will say that I'm not compassionate enough. I will feel guilt as well for if he doesn't have a place to sleep. Overall, I'm not the mastermind and I dun have a word since he is so money minded.

 

I dun like this feeling.

 

Money is important to lots of human being, With money, u can do a lot, without money, you can't do a lot. BUT MONEY IS NOT EVERYTHING.

 

Some time I wonder how a woman think ? A woman here is refer to someone who never went out to work, get cheated by some auntie from wet market, spent lots of $ on un-necessary items and yet no lesson has been learnt.

 

I really shock when I heard she spent about 100K for just 2 year or so ... average $6k a month for household expense .. that is more like shopping rather than just eating.

 

I being to believe that die is an relief from this earth, now I know why my dad want to die (he always say that), but we can't bear to let him go, we love him so much... he is still young ... not even carry a grandson yet.

 

How I wish to fulfill his wish as well.

 

 

Should I ?

Should I really move / upgrade to a bigger HDB flat ?  I'm staying in a 3 room HDB flat (2 small bedroom only).

 

Me and my dear are sleeping in the master bedroom, and the other room is been used for study and my work place. Out of sudden ... there is a person move in and stay with us without notifications.

 

A House to me is a very personal space that I can put myself at ease. So that I can dress down, relax, do anything I want. But out of sudden have someone move in ... It really makes me very uncomfortable and have to put myself very alert at home again.

 

Even I want to talk louder or wear lesser at home also cannot.

 

I very piss off.

Tired

I'm tired, very tired. Not only physically is tired, but also mentally and spiritually.

 

I duno how to put into english words for people to understand, cause I'm will just write what come across my mind now.

 

I want to let go of it, let go of the burden and things that is on my shoulder. Some how, I prefer to be alone with my wife only that no one can disturb our quiet world. But at the same time, I cannot just dun care of others unhappiness, worry and wants to give them a hand. But yet I scare of involving myself too much that cause hurt on me.

 

There is no one to blame except myself. So I dun blame. .. ..

 

I told my darling, if one of the this dates when I'm so ill, pleaseeeeeeee... dun cry, let me go in peace, smile at last night and celebrate for me please.

 

I want to sleep, I'm sleepy and too tired. . .

Nonya Ba Chang

I love Nonya Ba Chang from this company which their URL is http://www.kimchoo.com.sg

 

Why ? Because I can smell the faint, fragrant scent of the pandan leaves before I sink my teeth in it. The filling is made up of finely chopped lean meat (oh.. pls. . it is lean meat .. not the fat meat) that tastes like meat floss in my mouth.

 

Thanks to my Executive Director for buying all of us this Nonya Ba Chang from KimChoo.

Are you drinking the right tea?

Are you drinking the right tea?

1. People who use their "brain" to work or students who study hard day
and night --- should drink more chrysanthemum Tea.

2. People who need a lot of body energy to work or those people that do
a lot of exercise everyday --- should drink Wu Loong Tea.

3. People who travel on a bike or work in dirty and polluted places ---
should drink Green Tea.

4. For people who likes to sit down all day long and not doing anything
even exercising --- must drink Green Tea and Flower Tea.

5. People who smoke and drink alot of alcoholic drinks --- should drink
more Green Tea.

6. People who must eat meat at least once a day, or feel sick or not
feeling well --- try to drink some Wu Loong Tea.

7. People who go to the washroom too often or too less --- should drink
more Honey Tea

8. People with high cholesterol and high blood pressure --- Wu Loong
Tea,Green Tea.

9. Those who work with computers everyday --- need to drink a lot of Tea
(any tea wil do).

Whenever you are working with the computer, you should make some tea,
drink it when you are free. Drinking Tea is healthy, it can protect and
prevent the harmful Ultraviolet light from harming us (when using
computer). Furthermore, it can also cure us when we are tired and help
making our body feel fresh again.

Essential Tools For Marriage That Works

Marriage is a lifelong process of living with your partner and enriching your relationship with each other.  It is expected that marriage will have its ups and downs.

 

An understanding of marital responsibilities is a key ingredient to a successful marriage.  To develop a meaningful marital relationship, couples need to know themselves, their partners and learn to grow together.

• Communication - Effective communication reinforces a marital relationship.  We need to express our thoughts and feelings as much as we want attention and responses. So we can't shutup all the time and keep quiet.
• Family Relationship - With the rapid changes in the modern world, we should clarify what we expect from each other and develop a style of working together. And do remember the promise that make, doesn't mean after a year or so, you can forgotten about it.
• Financial Management - How we handle money revels the kind of lifestyle we aspire to attain and the values we hold.  Each of us are likely to have individual differences in the way we handle our $. Having a combined saving account and come to a common agreement level is important. Because money could be the cause of divorce.
• Relationship Development - To develop a meaningful relationship as a married couple, we need to know ourself as well as our partner in order for the both of us to learn to grow together.
• Sex in Marriage - Sexual intimacy is more than physical closeness; it  is an emotional adventure, an exploration, and a process of discovery.  A secure marital relationship helps us to learn about each other sexually. Dun give excuse just becuase we work too tired in office or "I prefer in the morning...not night" and you need to off the house before 7 am.

So do you know why I copy this paragraph from some website ?

 

ARIES MALE

ARIES MALE

When it comes to love you are aggressive, domineering, energetic and restless. You are impulsive, imaginative and dynamic, a doer, however on can never be sure what you'll do next. You can drive your lover crazy if she isn't accustomed to high energy excitement. You look for spontaneous and imaginative partners who can hold your interest and keep up to your fast pace. You can be a bed bouncer but you always expect complete loyalty from your mate. Although your temper is short lived you will explode if you become suspicious of your lover. You get jealous quickly and you need constant appreciation and reassurance in order to feel secure in your relationship.

ARIES MATE

You will not tolerate being bossed around by your mate. You hate have your space infringed upon and you can't stand it if your mate shows up late for a date. You like to be asked for advice and flattery always makes you feel important. You will never slow down and wait for your lover. It's keep up or get left behind. You match up to your sign and the remaining eleven signs as follows.

ARIES & ARIES: Temper tantrums are quite likely to erupt into major wars with this combination. Remember only one party can win and neither one will accept defeat. Passionate but problems.

ARIES & TAURUS: The Bull has trouble with your free spirited attitude. With compromise it can work. A little bit dull for you at times however it can be a stabilizing experience for you.

ARIES & GEMINI: Wonderful alliance. This is an exciting, sexual encounter that can in fact last. Both you and Gemini are so spontaneous and full of life that there is no time for either of you to become bored.

ARIES & CANCER: The Crab is far too sensitive and slow for your speedy and hot tempered nature. You will have difficulty listening to the Crabs nagging and negativity. This is really a poor match up right from day one.

AIRES & LEO: This is a most exhilarating combination. You both share the same likes and dislikes. You are both always on the go, craving excitement, love and fun. This is truly a link made in heaven.

ARIES & VIRGO: Your impulsiveness is just too much for the Virgoan. Virgo's practical, critical nature will drive you away rapidly. This is a relationship better left alone.

ARIES & LIBRA: Although opposites attract, the Scales are just a little too lazy to keep up with you. You on the other hand lack the sophistication required to keep a Libran happy.

ARIES & SCORPIO: You are both ruled by the catalyst Mars that makes this union hot and heavy. The possessive Scorpio will, however, does clash with your free spirited nature.

ARIES & SAGITTARIUS: This can be a good and a lasting relationship. You are both fun-loving and quite oblivious to the faults that might drive most people crazy. This is an exciting and adventurous union.

ARIES & CAPRICORN: Finances are the biggest detriment in this connection. You can spend it as fast as the hard working Goat can make it that drives the frugal Capricorn insane.

ARIES & AQUARIUS: This is not a bad connection. You are both inquisitive, however at times you may find it difficult to contemplate what the Water-bearer will do next.

ARIES & PISCES: Sexually this is not a bad alliance, but your temperaments are just so different that it does put a strain on the relationship. You could never handle the Fishes emotional whims for any length of time.

 

So do you think I'm Aries ?

FRIDAY'S TREATS

A nun, who badly needed to use a restroom, walked into a local bar. The place was hopping with music and loud conversation, and every once in awhile the lights would turn off. Each time the lights went out, the place would erupt into cheers.

However, when everyone saw the nun arrive, the room went quiet.

She walked up to the bartender and asked if she could use the restroom. The bartender said, "Okay, sister, but I should warn you that there's a statue of a naked man in there wearing only a fig leaf."

"Well," she said, "I will just have to look the other way."

So the bartender showed the nun to the back of the bar and she proceeded to the ladies' room.

After a few minutes, she came out and the whole place gave her a round of applause. Startled, she approached the bartender and said, "Sir, I don't understand why they applauded me for using the restroom."

"They know you're one of us, sister," smiled the bartender, "would you like a drink?"
I still don't understand," said the nun.

The bartender laughed. "Well, every time the fig leaf on the statue is lifted up, the lights go out! Now, how about that drink?"
