This made me laugh out loud. Fantastic! 
I have always loved advertising for the creativity behind it. My close friends know that whenever I'm at a train station, bus stop, browsing through a magazine, in a shopping centre or just talking, I lose my train of thoughts when it comes to an advertisement. Louie knows I get distracted by a good print ad.
I find this extremely witty.
Happy Father's Day!
:)
My friends have no sympathy.
Angryangmo laughed at my plight.
Lynn said it's retribution from my previous life.
Shiming, who was kinder, said maybe I could wallpaper my room.
My little sister was waiting anxiously for me to get home from dinner because:
(Re-enactment)
Jo: Grace grace, come see your room! I can't wait to see your expression!
Grace: Oh man, I can't believe this. What colour is your room
Jo: Mine is also pink, rose pink. Nicer than yours!
Grace: WHAT! I thought mine was rose pink
Jo: No la, yours is worst. Baby pink!
Grace walks into her room
Grace: NOOOOO!!!!!!
Mum and Dad rushes out.
Mum and Dad: What happened??!?!
Grace: My room is baby pink!
Mum: Nice what I like!
Grace: I hate pink!
Dad: Remember to pack your stuff ah
Mum: I can paint it violet lah
Grace is dumbfounded but she still loves her parents, thus she has decided to TRY and live happily in her new home which is an eclectic mix of cobalt blue, baby blue, rose pink, baby pink, magnolia yellow and jungle green.
It's the End of the World for me.
My parents are in a revamping phase.
While I'm at work, they painted my room PINK! ROSE PINK LIKE THIS.
I hate pink but I love my parents!
Guess what? My little sister, Jo, cheekily texted me a minute ago to break the news.
"Mum and dad painted your room pink!"
"What! I hate pink!"
"I know. That's why I found it very funny and texted you"
I cry!
Cillia sent me something really beautiful and I think it's very meaningful, especially when I'm feeling so empty. Thanks Cillia, for being gorgeous, down to earth and encouraging
Written By Regina Brett, 90 years old, of The Plain Dealer, Cleveland, Ohio :
"To celebrate growing older, I once wrote the 45 lessons life taught me. It is the most-requested column I've ever written.
My odometer rolled over to 90 in August, so here is the column once more:"
1. Life isn't fair, but it's still good.
2. When in doubt, just take the next small step.
3. Life is too short to waste time hating anyone.
4. Your job won't take care of you when you are sick. Your friends and parents will. Stay in touch.
5. Pay off your credit cards every month.
6. You don't have to win every argument. Agree to disagree.
7. Cry with someone. It's more healing than crying alone.
8. It's OK to get angry with God. He can take it.
9. Save for retirement starting with your first paycheck.
10. When it comes to chocolate, resistance is futile.
11. Make peace with your past so it won't screw up the present.
12. It's OK to let your children see you cry.
13. Don't compare your life to others. You have no idea what their journey is all about.
14. If a relationship has to be a secret, you shouldn't be in it.
15. Everything can change in the blink of an eye. But don't worry; God never blinks.
16. Take a deep breath. It calms the mind.
17. Get rid of anything that isn't useful, beautiful or joyful.
18. Whatever doesn't kill you really does make you stronger.
19. It's never too late to have a happy childhood. But the second one is up to you and no one else.
20. When it comes to going after what you love in life, don't take no for an answer.
21. Burn the candles, use the nice sheets, wear the fancy lingerie. Don't save it for a special occasion. Today is special.
22. Over prepare, then go with the flow.
23. Be eccentric now. Don't wait for old age to wear purple.
24. The most important sex organ is the brain.
25. No one is in charge of your happiness but you.
26. Frame every so-called disaster with these words ''In five years,will this matter?".
27. Always choose life.
28. Forgive everyone everything.
29.What other people think of you is none of your business.
30. Time heals almost everything. Give time, time.
31. However good or bad a situation is, it will change.
32. Don't take yourself so seriously. No one else does.
33. Believe in miracles.
34. God loves you because of who God is, not because of anything you did or didn't do.
35. Don't audit life. Show up and make the most of it now.
36. Growing old beats the alternative -- dying young.
37. Your children get only one childhood.
38. All that truly matters in the end is that you loved.
39. Get outside every day. Miracles are waiting everywhere.
40. If we all threw our problems in a pile and saw everyone else's, we'd grab ours back.
41. Envy is a waste of time. You already have all you need.
42. The best is yet to come.
43. No matter how you feel, get up, dress up and show up.
44. Yield.
45. Life isn't tied with a bow, but it's still a gift.
Beautiful lessons learnt.
I've got nothing to boast of, nothing to be proud of.
Thank you for your kind words. I choose to see the good behind the harshness.
You'll be in my prayers.
Just this Monday, I found out that I was going to lose someone important in my life. Needless to say, I felt empty though I knew nature would take its course.
He made a difference in my life. I wrote a bunch of notes but it'll be buried.
I came to work on Tuesday with a heavy heart but my prayers were answered.
The numbness and pain is slowly dissolving, with abundance of blessings at work.
I enjoy meeting clients, with CFOs and credit managers that buy me coffee and send me emails with hello kitties.
I thank God for sending good people like these who give me extra perseverance at work. Big deals are coming in. I'm truly blessed.
Lord,
Thank you for blessing me at Church last Sunday. Thank you for Louie who gave me a hug when I broke down and cried because of stress, a very swollen and infected foot, and even contemplated on not coming to Church. I'm glad you gave me a partner that encouraged me because I was bless.
Your Grace is sufficient for me.
Your Strength is made perfect when I am weak
All that I cling to, I lay at your feet
Your Grace is sufficient for me.
