Grey's Anatomy Season 3
In between my mugging sessions, I have been religiously watching Grey's and am finally done with it! I am now moving on to One Litre of Tears which can really make you cry one litre of tears...have been watching it with a roll of toilet roll beside me (facial tissue is too expensive here). Anyway, here is Burke's marriage vow that made me teared as well... it was sooooo orrhhhh and heartwarming... aahhhh....
To my future husband: Please read the below to me next time alright?
"Chunyi, I could promise to hold you, and to cherish you. I could promise to be there in sickness and in health. I could say till death do us part. But I won’t. Those vows are for optimistic couples, the ones full of hope. And I do not stand here on my wedding day, optimistic or full of hope. I am not optimistic. I am not hopeful. I am sure. I am steady. And I know. I am a heart man. I take them apart. I put them back together. I hold them in my hands. I … am a heart man. So this, I am sure, you are my partner, my lover, my very best friend. My heart beats for you. And on this day, the day of our wedding, I promise you this. I promise you to lay my heart in the palm of your hands. I promise you … me."

for one more day
Just read finish Mitch Albom's latest book, For One More Day.
A simple yet rich story.
Simple story of a guy who spent one day with his mother who is a ghost.
Rich in teachings of love and appreciation.
Here are some of my favourite quotes from the book:
"The backside of a mountain is a fight against human nature. You have to care as much about yourself on the way down as you did on the way up."
"You can find something truly important in an ordinary minute."
"Secrets...they'll tear you apart." How true. Sometimes ignorance is really bliss.
