Music Monday #4: Triumph In The Sky

Eason Chan - Triumph In The Sky Theme Song

This is actually a theme song from one of our fave TVB series called Triump In The Sky. It is about love, career & friendship. Red the synopsis here. Even tho', I don't quite like the ending (because the two persons who love each others ended up separate way with different partner), but it is acceptable. This is one of the best TVB series we've watched.

Our First Meme: 8 Random Facts

This would be our first ever meme. Actually Levy has tagged me on 8 random tags at AGP. But since i've already revealed so much about myself during my previous My 8 random facts, My [another] 8 random facts and My yet another 8 random facts, now how about 8 random facts about M? [Haha, sry darling, i hv to reveal some of your facts to our blogger friends. :P]

1. M does not like coffee. In our 7 years, I've seen him drink coffee less than 10 times. And the times when he drank one, is because I said it's extraordinary yummy. The last cup was 2-3 years back in Taiping. He drank Taiping White Coffee. oh, i miss drinking taiping white coffee! :)


2. M is a Juventus supporter since he was 13th.


3. M love to eat but he can be very fussy in his food selections.


4. M love playing football. He never skips his Tuesday football match with his friends, unless something important falls on that day or if he has hurt his leg the week before.


5. M can sing very well. Singing is one of his charm. When he sings and look you into your eyes, you can feel the electricity flowing to your body. :)


6. Before M & I started dating, he was at his perfect weight. I do not know when or how, he has became overweight. Some says it's the power of love, but i say it's simply because he love to eat! Honestly, i think he looks better this way! More macho! :)


7. M is a lazy good cook. He only cooks when the mood strikes him. But when he does cook, his food turn out to be fantastic!


8. M dislike crowded and noisy places, like the shopping mall on weekend. He prefers to stay at home.

Okay, that's all the 8 facts about M. Now, i would like to tag all our commenters: Marzie, Emila, LJ, Haaziq, Jackie, Bono, Yoon See and Bintang.

Since most of you guys have done this meme already, i would like to give this meme a little twist. Instead of '8 random facts about u', it is now '8 random facts about your loved ones'. It could be anyone you love, preferably someone you've mentioned in your blog so that we could relate to it. Hope you guys will play along as this is our very first tag. Thank you, guys! *HUGZ* :)

Aishiteru means I Love You, [if some of you may ask]. There is a silly story of mine behind this word. Long ago, before M & I started dating, we were always hanging out in a group. M and my girlfriend were quite close as in sister-brotherly close. One day, M said Aishiteru to my this girlfriend. Even tho' he meant it as in sister-brotherly love, but I got jealous. hehe. Those were the times when little things can makes you feel jealous.

The Gem of Life

M & I enjoy watching TVB series together. Thanks to Astro On Demand, we're able to watch the latest TVB series at the same time with our Hongkie friends. [But also thanks to Astro On Demand, we're RM40 poorer every month, if you know what i meant!] Currently we're watching "The Gem of Life". It has 82 episodes. Yes, i've typed correctly, it's 82 episodes. The longest TVB series, [i think].

THE GEM OF LIFE
Premiering 20th Oct - 8th Feb Mon-Fri, 9.30pm

You may wish to be a famous socialite.
You may wish to have fame and fortune.
But is that really what you will wish for at the end?

In PAK SIU-YAU (LEE SZE KEE, LOUISE)'s eyes, her three daughters are just as perfect as diamonds. She believes that the greatest blessing for a woman is to marry a wealthy man. To guarantee a better life for her daughters, she has started training the girls since they were young, hoping that they will marry into the richest families when they mature.

YAU's first daughter HONG NGA-YIN (SHIU MEI KI, MAGGIE) does not agree with her on her values. Yet when she sees that the man YIN is going out with is KO CHEUNG-SING (LAM, BOWIE), who is very well-off, she decides to let YIN go with her choice. YAU's second daughter HONG NGA-TUNG (LAI CHI, GIGI) is hopelessly romantic but does not seem to have much luck with men. To make it up to her, YAU seeks to match her up with HO CHIT-NAM (CHAN HO, MOSES), the son of Hong Kong's most powerful business tycoon HO FUNG (YUEH HUA). Being the youngest in the family, HONG NGA-SZ (CHOI SIU FUN, ADA) is well aware of YAU's concerns. Having recovered from divorce, SZ now decides to pin all her hopes on FUNG.

YAU's persistence pays off and her daughters have all found a wealthy husband. But money does not really bring them happiness and the sisters are gradually losing themselves in vanity.

Our thoughts: We dislike the character of Gigi Lai in this series. She's stupid and dependant. Always hate to see her scene. Between the three sisters (Maggie Siu, Gigi Lai & Ada Choi), we prefered to watch Ada Choi. She's the most sophisticated one. Tho' she has been cheated by her hubby, but that doesn't mean she's dumb. Her hubby is the dumb one for cheating her.

Well, so far, it has been only less than 10 episodes watched. Maybe we'll change our mind on Gigi's character as we go on. We'll see! :)

Family Planning

Last Thursday, M & I attended a 3 hours talk on Family Planning at Assunta Hospital. This was part of our CMPC. I had to say this was the most interesting talk i've ever attended. Even though we were both feeling a little fatigue that night but the speaker had our full attention during that 3 hours.

We were taught of the male & female reproductive system, latest contraceptive methods available and latest way of abortion - in which the church is strongly against abortion, before being introduced to the main topic: Billings Ovulation Method (BOM), an effective natural method of planning your family. It is based on the correlation of physiological events of the female reproductive cycle with observations made at the vulva. This method is being used in China and is said to be 90% accurate.

Diagram taken from http://www.nlm.nih.gov/MEDLINEPLUS/ency/imagepages/19471.htm
Interesting facts I've learn:
1) The life span of sperm is 1 day in dry place, and 3-5 days in wet place.
2) A male is fertile all his life long since the day he reached puberty.
3) The testicle is the ideal organ to store & produce sperm because of the temperature. That is why, male are advisable not to wear tight underwear/ pants to allow some room for breathing.
4) A male produces 1000 sperms every second.
5) Not all sperms being produced are healthy. There will be some with big head, some with crooked tail, etc. Only the healthy one will be able to swim to the egg and fertilized.


Diagram taken from http://www.britannica.com
Interesting facts I've learn:
1) The life span of ovum is 1 day.
2) A female is generally most fertile a few days before, during, and after ovulation.
3) Most female ovulate on day 14th from the first day of her menses.

In BOM, we especially the females were taught to recognise the presence of musuc by the wet/ slippery/ lubricatuve sensation & visual observation, and to relate it to her level of fertility and to apply certain rules.

Homework: We were given a charting book to keep record of our observations made at the vulva. The next follow up would be three weeks later. They will then explain your charting.



p/s: I wish i could explain more in details to you guys but I have limited knowledge on BOM and it is hard to explain here. If you are interested, you can contact them yourselves.
