S.U.R.P.R.I.S.E. ♥


I am really sorry for this long overdue post! Please bear with me :P


SHE is a G.E.M. found in Singapore. She has left Singapore for 45days to date, to further her studies in Australia. We are waiting for her to come back to us, come back to Singapore for good at year end, once she finishes her studies.


We all L.O.V.E this baby, be it at work or out of work. And, approximately 2weeks before she left to Perth, we organized a SURPRISE farewell party for her!



I really appreciate how everyone from different departments, staying at different corners of Singapore and/ or having different commitments to put in an effort on the 29th January 2011, to attend the farewell party at Jurong East. The surprise would not be so successful with you all. THANK YOU girls and boys. Salute!







We miss you hell lots babe! Almost every day, there is someone who will check with me on how you are doing in Perth! I must say that I MISS the days we work together, gym together, eat together, play together and travel together.


In short, I am missing you everyday babe! And, I am counting down to the day you are back to us again! Hope you are doing really really well there my dear! Take good care of yourself there! Let us know if you need anything from Singapore and we shall deliver it to you asap. Cheers, xoxo ♥

Dietitians' Day 2011

Finally!! After all the planning and preparation over the last couple of months, our inaugural Dietitians Day at our hospital went well with all the help and support from many of you.


More than 250 participants turned up on our public health awareness event, in conjunction with the Dietitians Day held at our hospital on the 8th March 2011. Our aim for the event was to create awareness amongst patients, staff and visitors on the role of good dietary choices in curbing obesity. As such, your generous contribution helped make our event’s aim a reality.


A BIG thank you to everyone, including staff in our hospital who collaborate with us or even by just turning up at our stations on that day itself to participate and wish us good luck, not to forget our suppliers with their kind sponsorship and/ or booth display and volunteers from Singapore Polytechnic.



Also, special thanks to all my lovely colleagues for the support on that day.

Thanks HH for all the guidance and advice
Thanks AN for being the co-runner
Thanks LF for being the IC @ the "Guess the amount of calories"

Thanks GM for being the IC @ the "Cooking Party"
Thanks Chef Ho and HR for being the IC @ the "Nutrilicious Walk"
Thanks CC for being the IC @ the "Know your BMI"
Thanks Val for being the IC @ the PA system
Thanks CT for being the IC @ the "Let's go Smart Shopping"
Our event would not have had this great success without you all.

With students from Singapore Polytechnic

Honestly, I really like organizing event.And, I am really glad and honoured to be given a chance to run this event. I was supposed to be in-charge of the World Diabetes Day last year, however it was stillborn due to the Healthcare Day that happened be on the same week. The responsibilities for Dietitians Day fall on me when my colleague who was supposed to be the in-charge felt that she could not cope with the increasing workload.

I really appreciate the opportunity given and I must say that I have learnt a lot from the event. Thank you very much my dear all. Your support in our health promotion event is truly appreciated. Cheers.

JJ I AM World Tour, Singapore Indoor Stadium


It has been more than 1.5yrs since I last went to a concert.


JJ I AM World Tour is the 3rd concert I have attended in my life and my 1st ever attended concert in Singapore Indoor Stadium.


My love to concert began when I first attended A-mei's Star Tour at National Stadium Bukit Jalil 2years ago. A-mei's performance, stage design and the live atmosphere were all too great and memorable. I can assure you that her concert is value of money and it is the best concert amongst the ones that I have been to thus far.



There were a few hiccups before JJ's concert. One of the major ones would be the admission of my childhood friend to the hospital to investigate the cause of her severe headache and vomiting. You could tell excitement in her easily 2weeks before the concert. However, things do happen out of our control at times. Unexpected things happen and learning to accept the changes is the key to it though it may not come easy.



So, what did we do? We went to the concert in two instead of three, we chose a few songs and skype-d with her when we were in the concert. LOL.


Visited her before the concert and brought her some snacks from ION.



Revisited her again after the concert. Brought supper and a souvenir from JJ's concert to her. If I were her, I would definitely not want to stay in the hospital alone. So, I decided to stay over at the hospital to keep her company.


Praise god nothing major happened to her. She was dignosed with migraine and discharged the following day.

Take good care of yourself my dear all. Do not let your beloved family and friends worried about you in whatever things you are doing, whoever you are with, whenever you are and wherever you are. Smile.
