The fuss about the world and me: February 2014

I've seen so many people posting on their instagram, facebook, twitter with this hashtag - #100happydays. I'm curious, what's with it? As days passed by, I realise #100happydays from friends seem to die out as well. What's with that, you're stopping after day 10?!

So, I google-ed (best friend tool!) and found this website: http://100happydays.com/
So that's what it is all about.

The page says 71% of people cannot complete listing their 100 happy days because they ended up being..

TOO BUSY

Rubbish. I believe everyone's happy at some point of the day. It is the documenting of a picture/incident that makes you happy - that is tough. Well, picture may paint a thousand words but memory lasts. Sometimes, you tend to forget what makes you happy that day.

So, I'm taking up this challenge. I'll start my happy days from 14 February 2014! Instead of a hundred happy days, I'll make it a year of happy days. So, this will be my record of happy days I'll have (the longest post ever!) and I'll update this post everyday.

14 February 2014
Happy Day 1 - mr. Bambam bought me an iPad Air for Valentine's Day pressie. I can't believe it, my first every iPad :)

15 February 2014
Happy Day 2 - Went out for dimsum breakfast with mr. Bambam's family. Had scrumptious dinner with mr. Bambam and his family at night and saw 2 local celebs. Took a stroll home after dinner with mr. Bambam and mr. Bambam said that he thinks I'm as pretty as a celebrity. *What a white lie* :)

16 February 2014
Happy Day 3 - I made a card holder pouch for my sister using online tutorial! Sewing is a happy thing to do. mr. Bambam says that he feels upset cause he's not spending enough time with me, he just wants to be with me. So, we went for breakfast together. :)

17 February 2014
Happy Day 4 - Woke up at 12.30am as I'm being irritated by mosquito! mr. Bambam came home at the same time and he saw me at the door. First words from him was "Are you okay? Why are you crying? Tell me, what's wrong??" and the anxious look on his face - I'm so blessed. After complaining to him about the irritating mosquito, he spent the next 15 minutes trying to find and get rid of it and lastly, help to burn a mosquito coil. Managed to run to sentosa in the morning :)

18 February 2014
Happy Day 5 - Last night, mr. Bambam found the irritating mosquito and he send me a picture of it - dead! (sorry mozzie) Ohh ohh, and we catch "walking dead" together after having a filling meal of McDonald's! :)

19 February 2014
Happy Day 6 - Didn't managed to wake up early for gym but I still woke up and was in time for the before 7.30am clock in MRT to obtain my de-congesting reward! :) Happy am I to be searching for our new house bathtub as well. mr. Bambam is overly excited and keeps telling me to call HDB on keys collection. Ha! :)

20 February 2014
Happy Day 7 - mr. Bambam came home and I told him about a second mozzie that is irritating me the whole night. mr. Bambam was so upset and he says he will catch it for me *love* Oh oh, and I am glad I went to gym alone this morning cause there was a train fault! So while everyone's fuming about the train stoppage, I am at the gym having a nice hot shower :)

21 February 2014
Happy Day 8 - Happy am I when mr. Bambam set up mosquito coil again so that I can have a good night's sleep. He's so sweet to do that despite me making him angry (I didn't wake up on time to wake up him for work! >.<). When he came back at 630am, his first concern was me - the first thing he did was asking me if there were any mosquito bites and was I able to sleep well. Gosh, that's so *melts*. Hahas, another happy thing is that I'm going for a free guided tour to USS and SEA Aquarium as part of my job. Hees, that's cause my company will be organising a family day at USS *crossed fingers* I hope my MD is still agreeable when we send him the approval papers. :)

22 February 2014
Happy Day 9 - I had dinner with my lovelies ladies! Went to Lingy's house for dinner with her and her children. OMG, kids are super adorable. I want to have one soon ;) Oh and the fences surrounding our block is down! I told mr. Bambam and he immediately said let's go over later~~ :)

23 February 2014
Happy Day 10 - mr. Bambam ended work at 1.30am and reached home at 2.00pm. We got changed and went over to our block for a walk walk~ Oh, mr. Bambam strike 4D as well :) I am so happy. We had McDonald's as supper and strolled back home to zzz. Hees. I had my facial (face and back) in the afternoon, I am so glad~ :)

24 February 2014
Happy Day 11 - mr. Bambam is sick :( I intend to cook his favourite salmon to make him feel better. Remember the USS family day I was talking about? MD came back and said "ok". Wheeew~ But it feels so stressful to plan a family day for 1,000 pax within 3 weeks. I hope I can manage :)

25 February 2014
Happy Day 12 - Because mr. Bambam is sick, we slept very early last night at 9.30am. In the middle of the night (this morning), mozzie keep irritating him and me so he woke up and search for the mozzie. I was dead as a log and didn't bother about mozzie. mr. Bambam was so nice to be fuming and searching for the mozzie. He finally caught it and swapped it to its death *oopsy~* I hope for a good night's sleep today!! :)

26 February 2014
Happy Day 13 - Went to gym in the morning! Finally, after 4 days of hiatus. I sewed last night - a potholder! So happy about it. :)

27 February 2014
Happy Day 14 - Great, this is keeping up :) Happy am I today as we went to eat Marche for lunch! Wee~ But work has not been very successful though, many hiccup along the way. Well, like I mentioned, it's impossible to keep happy everyday, there will be situations whereby you feel down. You can only have happy moments at certain part of the day :) Anyway, I went to Paya Lebar to wait for mr. Bambam after his work and strolled along Star Living. Saw a few items that might be great for our house! *Okay, mr. Bambam said they were quite ugly =X* Oh well~ :)

28 February 2014
Happy Day 15 - I bought some herbs to boil herbal tea and so I woke up at 4.30am to wash clothes, doze off, wake up again to dry the clothes and was thinking if I should boil and there, I went ahead to boil the tea!! This was quite an easy feat. You just need to pour the ingredients into the pot, wash it, pour 3 litres of water and put the pot over the fire till it is boiling and simmer the pot over low heat for 30-40 minutes~ Easy, right? Oh, remember to add rock sugar after that :) This is for mr. Bambam as he has been sick for 3 weeks already (on and off). Hopefully the herbal tea does its work and will be able to reduce his heatiness. :)

1 March 2014
Happy Day 16 - How time flies! Today, I attended my colleague's baby shower. So adorable to have a child. Oh oh, I spent 50cent at a try for Para Para. Recalling those old days with my besties when we used to go arcades and dance all day. No wonder I was slimmer then because I was sweating buckets when I tried the dance. mr. Bambam says he should give me $5 every weekend to dance my fats off. Hahas! :)

2 March 2014
Happy Day 17 - I sew-ed again! This time round, it's 2 pouches - one for a very good friend and the other for my sister! Packed mr. Bambam room and sweep the floor~ :) Ended my night by putting on a facial mask and playing Candy Crush on iPad. What a nice day :)

3 March 2014
Happy Day 18 - Happy am I to be home and eating KFC with mr. Bambam :) We found walking dead on an app on iPad but it was loading very very slowly. It took us 3 hours to finish watching the 45min show. Hahas. Oh, I went USS again. I'm hope this nightmare (yes, nightmare!) will end soon. =X

4 March 2014
Happy Day 19 - After working OT yesterday, I am so glad I can knock off on time! Hees, but then again, I have not been working much at all since last year till now. Oh well. So, I went home and ate Mcdonalds with mr. Bambam. Sweet, right? :)

5 March 2014
Happy Day 20 - mr. Bambam came home and he asked was I bitten by mozzie. I said yes and he switched the lights on and look for it. I flipped and he saw it on my thigh. *Swat!* and he landed a tight slap on my back thigh. *Ouch* :'( Okay, but I'm glad he got rid of the mozzie. It's very irritating to have 1 mozzie every day. :)

6 March 2014
Happy Day 21 - Can't believe it took me 4 days later to record my everyday happy day! Hahas. Anyways, I heard my neighbours are collecting their keys. OMG, excited. Oh, attended a workshop in the afternoon and got to go off early. Went all the way to Chinatown to buy cheap toiletries and then to Paya Lebar to have dinner with mr. Bambam. While waiting for mr. Bambam to finish his work, I shopped around City Plaza and bought like cheap clothes! Excited max. :)

Finally selected 6 beautiful gowns. 2 A Line wedding dress with long train, 1 Empire Style wedding dress, 1 Ball Gown evening gown (this looks like Belle's dress from Beauty and the Beast), 1 Empire Style evening gown and 1 traditional Kua. :) Now, I am just wondering which 4 to be selected for indoor shoots and which 2 to be selected for outdoor shoots =X And we received HDB's invite to collect keys - Hurray!
