What is your Love Language?

The 5 Love Languages was quite a famous topic back then and I had a discussion with my friend about this topic recently. Just in case, these 5 love languages consist of Quality Time, Words of Affirmation, Gifts, Act of Service and Physical Touch. 

If you're uncertain about your love language, you can take an online test [here]. Knowing your primary love language can help you communicate effectively in order to feel loved.

Below content copied from OkCupid:

Quality Time:

You crave togetherness. You want a person's undivided attention - a true connection with someone. Dialects of the language of Quality Time are Quality Conversation, Quality Listening, and Quality Activities. You can enjoy just one or multiple dialects.

Words of Affirmation:

Everyone should learn to be proficient in this language of love. Word of encouragement, words of praise, kind words will make you feel best if that's your primary love language.

Gifts:

The important thing is not the gift, but the love that is communicated. Learn the person's interests. It shows that you listen, pay attention, and took the Quality Time to get something thoughtful. :)

Act of Service:

It is the thought and intent behind the acts of service that counts, which means do it our of love but not duty. Acts of service is not slavery. Love refuses to be manipulated. There is no such thing as "if you love me, you would..."

Physical Touch:

If this is your primary language, then a hand on the shoulder or a pat on the back speaks louder than words. Physical touch can be appreciated by anyone, but to those fluent in the language of physical touch, it shouts! Of course, it's not just ANY physical touch that communicates love.

Love Life @ this October

Meet Merlion

Another happening weekend on the last week of October. It was a long weekend so the Avengers came out with a plan, to go to Singapore! This was not an unplanned trip, in fact we get ourselves "confuse" for so many times before we confirmed the trip. Lesson to learn is "always speak the truth only". This is not the first time we went to Singapore, I think it's the 4th times in two years time. *break-record*

Not by flight, not by bus, but we drove all the way from KL to Johor, overnight at JB and we depart on the next morning to Singapore. Guess what? I actually met my Uncle at the check point area. The world is so small and I have not met him for two years already. We had a short chat and the Avengers are chasing me like crazy, and somebody got angry with me too. *sob*

Singapore Zoo is quite near from Woodlands and here we are at Singapore Zoo!

Well, the zoo is so big and we really got no idea on where to start. I've heard so many good comments about Singapore Zoo and always wanted to visit them. Everything here is nice!! The animals are so active, we saw the White Handed Gibbon swing from one tree to another. Awesome! The otters can even pose for the camera, so cheeky!! 

One unforgettable experience is to feed Manatee here. With SGD 5, you get a basket of food to feed them. All donations proceed to their conservation fund. I think there are total seven of them if I'm not mistaken. One of them named Valentine, so sweet. They are so huge, and they need to eat up to 300Kg food per day. Can you imagine that? 

Opposite Manatee pool, there are few displays, take photo is one must for us as a tourist here!

After that we continue to their stage show - Rainforest Fight Back.. This is one educational stage show to educate the public on the importance of rainforest. We need to do our part for our tomorrow. If we don't start today?  Imagine if 20 years down the road, there is a possibilities of no forest, no tree in the world. I think this is one scary issue by simply imagining.

It is a super long journey continue on, we spend close to 6 hours at this amazing place. There's tram services also, four main station to cover the route. We did hop on to that, but to see the animals in a closer distance, we just walk, walk, walk, and walk. Awesome.... and hungry! By the time we wanted to sit down and relax, the restaurants here started to close down, thank God Night Safari is just nearby, so we had our lunch+dinner there!

Oooohhh......Kai Kai & Jia Jia!!! I've watched their transportation live webcast from Changi Airport to River Safari, can't wait for their appearance in River Safari soon. Before the actual visit, let's take a photo with them here!

Singapore Zoo and Night Safari is just nearby through a short walking distance. 

Along the way, this is how my funny avengers can be.

So here we are at Night Safari!! It is super hard to spot a seat here and it is so crowded. While finding seats, I spotted one table and one foreign tourist just grab the chair and sit down. Ya, so no manners right? Well, we managed to find another table after that. At 7pm, there's a show here at the stage right in front of the restaurant. So many people flow in and block our view from watching the show. I think they should keep the view exclusively for their dine-in guest instead of allowing non-dine-in public to enter and interrupt that.

Before we leave, one group photo okay?

Have fun!

Happy Birthday!

10^th October is another beautiful day to celebrate, wish me happy birthday! I always prefer simple celebration, hanging out with friends, have dinner, or maybe an outing, it will be more than enough to cheer my day <3 Yup, I’m simple like that. Hehe :P

The love had surprised me on the night before with the birthday present + my favourite cake on 12am :) Which these had brought me to tears as it is such a surprise and it touches my heart <3 The love had prepared so many surprises for me throughout the month, present to you the surprises:

We had a simple dinner on the night before, simple and nice dinner. Cool ambience, perfect dining <3

Planning on when to redeem the tickets because we want to beat the queue and enjoy to the max. Stay tune to my journey to ‘Legoland’.

<lego bricks> He got this idea through my blogpost, and I really didn’t think of that he will buy this as my present. I have a hard time guessing what that is while it is nicely wrapped.

It’s a working day, and I didn’t on-leave either. I’m one dedicated + committed staff okay? The funny Avengers had a great plan for me, but they didn’t know that I already knew the plan and they still think that I didn’t know. There’s a funny story behind this and lesson to learn is “never think you’re too smart” :P 

The Avengers brought me to this super nice place to have my birthday dinner, plus the customized birthday cake – The Otter cake. She said I’m cheeky, mischievous, and smart like an otter. Though the cake looks like a bear, but I really appreciate this thoughtful cake and celebration.

Thank you all my friends who send me wish in facebook, twitter and SMS, I’m really happy and blessed to have you remembering my birthday. This has been another great year and I hope that the best is yet to come.   

Here I am... Again!!

In case you're wondering where am I talking about, ta-daaa, here I am again to Bukit Tinggi with my Avengers! The team who survived through the high and low during our toughest time. Well, the season is not over yet, but we are learning to find joy in the things that we do. *Positive Thinker*

This is a super random trip which I don't even remember how we started about this. Guess what? We woke up early on a Sunday morning *yawn*, just for this trip. Excited!! So as usual McDonald's breakfast, trying to ignore one of us who don't like McDonald's, yup, she is such a weird person. :P 

It is an almost two-hours journey inside the car. Non-stop chatting and the funny sharing really makes our Sunday beautiful. This is the second time I visited this place, it was exactly one year ago when I first visited this place. Same location, different people! Here we are, at Japanese Village :D

Not much attraction here, but you have a chance to dress-up in Kimono with a minimal charges. With that, you can actually walk around to take photo in this special landscaped Japanese Village. We only spend around an hour here before we leave to French Village. Oh ya, there's a Japanese Restaurant there. Just hop by if you want to have Japanese Meal in Japanese Village. *on-nom-nom*

Say 'Hi' to French Village - Colmar Tropicale! I know you can't see the awesome building yet. Presenting to you one nice photo of "The Avengers", and there is a super farnnneeee story behind this photo. It's a long winded one, lesson to learn is "learn to take photo from the mirror". 

The girls start to get excited and pose! Perfect weather to hang out, windy, just nice!

We had lunch at this beautiful place. It is the same old place that I had my lunch here years ago. Not to criticize cause there's the only place for you to have lunch. :P We were then walking around, snap some nice photo, enjoy the windy plus the beautiful scenery. Watched a stage show, happily enjoy, and remind each other that "tomorrow is Monday", then all of us e-m-o. That's how funny the Avengers can be!

Thank you for this great companion. 

I totally enjoy this super happy and great Sunday!

Happy October

How time flies and it is already October, the final quarter of 2012! Looking back the past nine months, and wondering what is the greatest achievement that I did so far. Sadly, I couldn't recall any! I think I should have seriously think about what do I want to achieve in life.

Well, October is a happy month to me and I have so many things to look forward. I still love my eventful October back in 2010, I guess that must be the most happening October that I ever had. This year, a lot of things had changed, even myself has changed.

Let's see how this beautiful month turn out to be!

To all October babies, have a blast on this wonderful month!
