《认识你真好》("It's Good to Know You" )

《认识你真好》("It's Good to Know You" ) was a song sung by Eric Suen (孙耀威) that was released in July 1993. This was also the song that brought fame to Eric Suen (孙耀威).

《认识你真好》("It's Good to Know You" ) is still one of my favourite songs. This song is very lively and never fails to perk me up. I think this song makes people feel happy - The person singing it and the person listening to it. Eric Suen is also one of those singers who looks and sounds good. 





歌词:

想着你的好
不知道何时才能拥你在我的怀抱
也不想预料
能否等到所谓天荒地老
但是我 只要专心地看着你一秒
就听见我的心跳 又在胸口燃烧

我要求不高

只希望每次邀你入梦你不会迟到
要让你知道 
你的欢喜悲伤我都想要
因为我 最爱看到你甜蜜的微笑
小小的一种需要 不会被谁动摇

认识你真好 知不知道

只有你可以让我把烦恼忘掉
认识你真好
一切都变得不重要
你让我觉得骄傲

一生也好一天也好

不担心时间太少
至少我不必再寻找谁的温柔才够好
让我拥抱

hoo...my baby

认识你真好 知不知道

只有你可以让我把烦恼忘掉
认识你真好 一切都变得不重要
是你让我觉得骄傲

which can be translated as:

Thinking of how good you are
Don't know when I can hold you in my arms
Don't want to think about
whether I can wait forever 
But I only need to just concentrate and look at you for one second 
I will hear my heart beating and feel my chest burning

My expectations are not high
Just hope everytime I invite you into my dreams 
you will not be late 
Want to let you know that I want both your joy and sorrow
Because I love to see your sweet smile 
A need that will never waver because of anyone

Do you know that it's good to know you
Only you can make me forget my troubles 
Do you know that it's good to know you
Everything else becomes unimportant 
You make me feel so proud

Be it a lifetime or just a day
I do not worry about having too little time 
At least I no longer need to search for anyone else  
Let me embrace 

Hoo .... My baby 

Only you can make me forget my troubles 
Do you know that it's good to know you
Everything else becomes unimportant 
You make me feel so proud

Metro Expo Sale from 1 Nov - 3 Nov 2013

Metro is currently having its Metro Expo sale at the Singapore Expo from 1 Nov to 3 Nov 2013, at hall 4. 

With only about one hour to shop around yesterday, naturally shopping for clothes was out for us (have to spend time queuing for a fitting room and change). The next thing to look out for were bargains for shoes and other items.

When we were at the right corner (looking in from outside) of hall 4, we saw some ribbons meant for Christmas tree decorations. Metro was selling them at 5 for $15. I didn't want to get five rolls of ribbons, then I realized that we could mix many different items to make up the numbers. After looking around, I finally decided on these 5 items.


Ribbon

Bells for Christmas tree decorations

Accessory holder

The accessory holders shown in the pictures above were available in 3 colours, two of which I had bought. The other colour was black and light grey. These could hold hook earrings and bracelets on top as well as small stud earrings and rings below. 



The accessory holder above was in the shape of a lady's body. This could hold necklaces, bracelets, bangles, rings, hair ties and hook earrings.

I think this was a good deal. Normally, such accessory holders would cost about $10 each. 

Other items that were sold at 5 for $15 were piggy banks of various shapes, party masks, party hats and other Christmas tree decorations.  

The pictures below shows the accessory holders with accessories on them.

Remico Double Grill Frying Pan - Part 2

I had previously written a post on the Remico Double Grill Frying Pan on our Ace Swan Blog. I had used the pan several other times to cook other dishes but I did not take any pictures then.

Yesterday, I used the Remico Double Grill Frying Pan to fry some fish. As Remico Double Grill Frying Pan had non-stick surfaces, I did not need to put a lot of oil. I was glad the fish turned out just the way I wanted it - crispy on the outside. See the picture below.


I also used it to cook my vegetables instead of the wok that I normally used.  I didn't want the hassle of having to wash the wok as well. I was glad I was able to put all the vegetables in the pan to cook.



I also noticed that by using this Remico Double Grill Frying Pan, my kitchen wasn't as oily as when using a wok for cooking/frying. It should be due to the fact that less oil was used and covering the food during the cooking/frying process.
