this shall be my very first post for the year 2009! it may not be the very start of the new year, but its the start of the lunar calendar year. A very happy 2009 to those reading, and a happy NIU year to all. May the new year to be a better one. :)

i have not yet penned down my resolutions, so i will do it now.

1. i want to be discipline, and start saving regularly.
2. i want the determination, to really slim down. exercise regularly, and dont junk so much.
3. to be more positive, and work happily in my current job until i have decided what to do.
4. be more understanding, and cherish my dear boy more <3
5. more discipline; to sleep earlier, & improvise my lifestyle.

i think the resolution this year sounds so much practical than the usuals i have done. & i really wish i would follow it closely.

nonetheless, i wish everyone to be healthy. health is the happiness that nothing can buy.

because of the GMT, im now super confused of the time, the date, and which day is CNY now at. at the present timing, its 23 30 at rome, and 06 30 in singapore. so its "Chu San" right? im so behind time. family is in singapore doing their visiting, and im here at rome :S baby boy is also enjoying himself at indonesia. by the time im back in singapore, its alrdy 31st jan, which is the 6th day. but to me, its almost like day 1.

but luckily, i have ee vonn, my batch girl, with me this trip. its such a long flight; such a long stay.

today is the touch-down day, just had dinner, small shopping and we went to the trevi fountain.
i shall conclude that the spaghetti here is "too original", not to my liking. i wasted my whole plate of weird tasting pasta. conclusion, i prefer the pizza.

trevi fountain is just BEAUTIFUL! in the day, at night, it equally pretty. people do throw their penny, and make a wish. i have not done it yet. but im sure i will do it before i left rome. if only babyboy is there with me, and we shall make a wish together. :) this shall be my wish. babyboy , come read this!!

went spanish steps too. whats that? frankly speaking, im not sure. yet to google it. while taking photos just now, my colleague quickly come to us and said ( something like that in mandarin): " you girls got aimed alrdy, faster leave. grab ur valuables tightly. lets go". then i really saw a group of gypsy-looking con men looking over at our direction. super scary. like anytime, they are going to rob us. LOL

but rome is quite dangerous place. theres alot of gypsies, pick-pockets and con men. there is even bogus policemen in plain clothes, who check for money and passports. so our valuables have to secure inside our jeans, and grabbed our bags tight. its such a pity, what a pretty place, but yet we have to worry about those conmen and gypsies. sometimes i really appreciate the security level in singapore.

near the spanish steps, its like the walking street where the boutiques are. went Gucci and Prada. and before we know, all other shops are closed. they closed at an early time of 7.30pm!!! slightly better than australia. but the Gucci here is so so much prettier leh. i dont know why. so many items i have not seen them in singapore. almost splurge on a pair of pumps. lucky i never. went prada next, and i bought a wristlet. which can also be used as a clutch. very pretty! in their new rosy colour. happiness! no photos yet, cos i forgot to bring my card reader this trip.

its my first bag of the year. i ended 2008 with my LV :), and started 2009 with this small prada :)) woo hoo!

it now time to stop on all these small misc spending, and get serious about saving $$ and get smth more worth it right. chanel, wait for me!!

sightseeing tomorrow!!!

who is...
terribly in love.
i laugh, & cry like anyone else.
all i wish for is a fairy tale...
