Wish Upon A Star(bucks)...

Green , red, and some brown.... yup it’s here, It’s the Starbuck’s Christmas all over again.
This is not an advertisement for them but every time this coffee chain rolls out their Christmas theme
beverages and souvenirs, it never fails to capture my attention.
I love the colours,  those whimsical cartoons and that tinge of magical atmosphere they created.


Not much of a coffee drinker myself but will almost certainly obliged with a toffee nut latte or two with wifey when the mood gets sufficiently stirred... not shaken.

This Song In My Heart

Yesterday morning, during service, we worship with this timeless song . The words are beautiful , and so is the music... I was even singing it on my way to work this morning.




Love of My life

With my eyes I long to see Your smile

With my ears I long to hear Your voice

With all my heart I long to feel You

With all my soul I long to seek You



Please let me find the way to Your dwelling place

I long to hide in the shadows of Your wings

To find my rest as I dwell in Your peace

To live forever in the beauty of Your grace



Draw me close to You

Close by Your side

I want to hold You tight

Close to my mind

Come take me to the place

Where You could be found



I want to praise You Lord all of my life

I want to let You know from the depths of my heart

You’ll be forever Lord, the love of my life

A Morning @ Central Fire Station and A Nite Out @ MBS

Last Saturday, I brought Mick out for an excursion to the Central Fire Station at Hill Street. It was an event organised by SGS in conjunction with Safe September.


We reached there at about 845am and the drizzle does little to dampen the excitement of the attendees especially the kids. An officer guided us throughout the 1 hour tour of the station and Mick gets to experience spraying water from the Red Rhino, sitting inside the fire engines and ambulance, trying out the water hose and learning more about fire safety .

He looks like he quite enjoyed the excursion and I am glad I managed to spend some quality time with him on a nice morning.

We had McDonalds breakfast before heading home ( they were not serving lunch menu yet at 11am) . Bought a fillet meal for little Mick while I had the big breakfast set. He also got a free hot wheels vehicle despite not getting the happy meal set ( thanks to the Mac Auntie). Bought a Big Breakfast back for wifey too ;o)
Afternoon was spent vacuuming/moping the floor after a short nap and at night, decided to visit Marina Bay Sands Shoppes. Took a bus to Raffles Place before taking an MRT to Marina South and then changing to bayfront (rather troublesome) before we can reach the place.


my  lovely wifey ;o)

MBS is a very nice place I feel. Classy, romantic and plenty of space to walk and admire the night view of the Singapore skyline. Pity the lack of breeze on that night but I must say that I thoroughly enjoyed being there with darling.

I hope to try some of the restaurants there next time we visit as we only ate at the food court on Saturday ( we shared a bowl of spicy la-mian and a plate of chilli oil wanton and a prawn paste chicken.) Chendol was very weak though...

We ended the night taking some pictures at the machine and it turned out pretty good. Nice souvenir to cap a fantastic night out with darling.
