Last weekend of January

1. I downed 4 Krispy Cremes. I don't want to think about the sugar & fats intake. 2. I wonder where did my January go. Wedding only needs a day, no? What happened to the rest? 3. I'm still playing bejeweled on facebook. A lot. And I miss the fair competition back then. Now, I don't know if these people topping the chart are cheating or have made used of the silly new applications. I know, it's just a game and I'm not bitter (about not being first) because I have topped the chart erm... once. Until someone cheated and overtook me. Ok yes, I'm a little bitter about that bit. 4. I'm recharging for the challenging week ahead. The 2 days KL trip was packed yet fruitful and has drained much of our energy. And I'm not helping myself by sleeping late and too little. Maybe better today since I clocked 11hrs. Love it when I can sleep that much. 5. I managed to upload our wedding night photos in minutes instead of hours. I've learnt my lesson well and learn...

I Found YOU

My dear friend, thanks for leaving a comment and thus allowing me to find you. It was a pleasant surprise, one which I wouldn't have a chance to receive if I had not been more kpo :) And as much as my eyes were almost half shut - these days I function like a 27 years old trapped in a 50's body - I read all 2 years odd of entries, some of which are heart-tugging to me. This is how you feel...? this is how you felt...? And I have to tell you, never mind that it may be insignificant to you, I'm glad to find you. Those 6 months in an environment full of gossipy aunties, bitter married women and whatnot would have been so much different without you. You always have something funny to share and the most 'painful' bit was I couldn't literally lol when I came back from wisdom tooth extraction, with stitches in my mouth. And you think it's easy to make someone laugh? It's a gift to bring joy to others. Even if that's how you hide your insecurities - to always...

Know when to have fun

While I'm uploading the hundreds of photos onto facebook which is taking a painfully long time - 3hrs has passed and I'm not past the 50th photo, I might as well update a little on the past week's happening. Was feeling a little down at work but the positive vibes begin to pick up towards the end of the week because well, weekend is here! At the end of the day, work is just work so why worry so much? Had a talk with my boss but wasn't of much use. Things are still, "we'll see how it goes" as usual. So, I'm gonna put that aside for the time being and do whatever I need to do. And no, I'm never a believer of staying back late to show I'm hardworking. To me, that's either a sign of inefficiency or the company is overloading me. Anyway, took the afternoon off on Friday to unwind and mann did we have fun. First to lunch at Food Republic and we spent 2hrs there eating and chatting. Then to Far East for some mini pampering sessions - eyebrow trimm...

Happening Friday & Sleepy Saturday

Went for drinks and an impromptu mahjong session till 7ish this morning. Crawled back to mum's place and slept till 1pm. Was surprised I could stay awake for so many hours, given that my nose is still busy running. Felt like I'm back to 6 or 7 years ago when late nights are almost nothing to me. But now, 1 late night means it's gonna be a long long time before I'll do it again. TCCing tomorrow - finally some quality girly time. Good night people.

For better or for worse?

I guess I will know soon. I listened and accepted with a heavy heart. I wished my ears were blocked instead of my (flat) nose and that I didn't hear what I heard. I've guessed it right yet wished I was wrong. The truth is here and in no time, reality will sink it and I... I can only hang it there and wish for the better. I was disappointed at first. Why did I feel like I was one of the last to know although I'm not exactly the last. Then again, what difference does it make if I'm the first or last? Don't get me wrong, I'm truly happy for you but on a selfish and honest note, I'd be happier if this is not so soon, if this is not NOW. Anyway.... Follow your dreams. Everyone can dream, everyone has dreams yet not many will fulfill theirs. Make yourself the one who can! All the best :)

On the 13th day...

My first MC of the year. Come to think of it, I think it's been a while.. haha. I've not gotten a reply from the hotel and I'm not gonna to let go just like that. Not when you paid about $30K for it. I've been thinking if I should still keep this blog private...

Shopping's free!

When you have $400 worth of Taka vouchers & $200 Hugo Boss vouchers. But, after spending more than 2hrs at Taka, I bought nothing. Couldn't decide if I like the Agnes b necklace enough to top up the additional $125. It's pretty but too girly for me and I rarely wear such feminine necklace... Wanted to get the Agnes b wallet and was even willing to top up another 200 odd but it's the last piece. No luck with Agnes I guess... and I don't want another Kate Spade... Actually I wanted a watch (vouchers are gift from bro so I want something lasting and meaningful) but I could only choose between DKNY & GUESS since Swatch's out and there are none that caught my eyes. So, I eventually got myself a new wallet at Hugo Boss. A belated Christmas present from myself to myself. The current Kate Spade shall be the travelling wallet :) At least the lucky draw prize belongs to me this time. Lucky lucky... another good one this year pls? In any case, I shall resist all tempta...

It's just a moment...

Everything that happened last Saturday seems like a flash now. I can't believe that a year's preparation and waiting brings you a once in a lifetime event that didn't last more than 24 hours. 365 days vs 1 day... you do the Maths. It's true that after THE glamorous day & night ended, you can't help but feel empty. Like, that's it? Of course that's not it. Life goes on... married life (ROMed not really counted) takes place and at this point, I can't tell you how much it has changed. And no, I'm not planning for a baby yet. Give me at least a year pls. Wedding to me, is magical. It's like wearing the gown. You will only feel it when you are in it. Beside thanking myself for seeing through and doing almost everything, I sincerely thank everyone who made it happen. I can't thank you people enough and I can't tell you how grateful and happy I am. Other than the few hiccups which will happen, just that I think we had it worse (very sick pho...
