this is all so scary. it's a do or die kind of thing. =(

this weekend was almost close to perfect. everything turned out according to my wishes and i thank God for that. when i have a good time, i eat more than normal, we had frog leg, dim sum, steak, fried chicken, mcspicy, japanese curry rice. haha... we had a little of all of these in just mere 2 days. Luckily for us, we did run a little on saturday morning but don't think it made up for all the food we ate. i know it when i saw the weighing machine just now! hee

and we ended off this weekend sinfully with:




his favourite tiramisu from Haagen-Dazs


as much as you annoy me half the time, we had the best of our times for the past 6 years and i look forward to spending the next 60 years and more with you, my love.

recently, it got me thinking, it will be nice if the boy gets a job overseas and we were to relocate. it will be a time when we have true independence, away from the buzz of our parents and i think that is where we will learn alot more stuff as a couple and as individuals. hmmm.. just a thought.

i'm amazed with how fast bus 12 takes e in the morning from my place to katong or at night from katong back to my place. on sunday mornings wherever i thought i will be late for church, the bus surprisingly gets me to church in 30 mins, sometimes lesser. and on nights where i am so tired, yet the bus is able to get me back in 30 mins or less as well.

BUT... other timings, bus 12 seemed to be SO MUCH SLOWER. like afternoons, it take me 45 mins or more to reach that area and evenings are worse but the stretch on east coast road will be so jam. the bus does not move!

had a relatively good day today. nice meet up with old friend. looking forward to more of such meet ups. =)

i was told i shouldn't keep asking for more. i hate myself for not being able to give myself more. on days like these, i feel so useless. nothing accomplished, nothing to be proud of, nothing to call my own.

i want more but i don't have the right to ask for more. unless i get it myself.

i love weekends when we have the car. makes going anywhere so much more convenient. the weekend that just passed has been great. we have been swamping ourselves with activities and now that bsf have started, we have more work to do during the weekends. yet, despite times like these, i am so thankful we still manage to squeeze quality time out for each other.

had a lovely dinner last night with my aunt and uncle. of course the fact that we went sushi tei @ I12 katong makes me even happier. think i am collecting points so much faster now. it's amazing how my boy could talk and converse with my relatives so much better than with my parents. times like these make me feel i actually have the best of both worlds. totally made my night.

sleep is not on our side lately. we are so easily tired. =/ wanted to catch up abit on our devotion and bsf homwork tgt but we end up taking a nap so long it became dinner time.

i can't wait for 2014.....

Happy Valentines Day, everyone!

i dun have any special vday plans to begin with. thought we will just go for a movie and simple dinner but then we were summoned back to church for youth alpha meeting so we decided to just have a simple dinner at I12 Katong, sushi tei of course. for those who knows, i have an ulterior motive for going there. haha

my vday gift this year is a huge mango. i came back and immediately, this was the conversation i had with daddy.

daddy: eh? where are your flowers?
me: huh? what flowers?
daddy: never get flowers this year?
me: (smiling proudly) i got a huge mango!!!

seriously, my parents thought it was very strange for me not to receive flowers. hello? do they even know nic? my boy is practical like anything and giving me mango cos i like to eat is much more practical than flowers. though i hate the fact that my mum thinks he got me already, like after propose, then no more flowers.

ahhaa... but i love mango!!! but one daisy or sunflower wouldn't hurt. i love sunflowers since secondary school. ask any of my girls! haha

i understand that valentines day is just a day with marked up prices by restaurants, florists and any other vendors who try to use it as a day to earn more money.

however, vday has very significant meaning to me and this can be traced from all the way in my sec. school Back in IJ days, vday is a widely cenebrated day. girls give a stalk of flower, chocolates or sweets and everyone is sure to get something back that day. i love celebrating vday with girlfriends. it adds to the fun and laughter or it all. now that i have the boy, vday becomes a day that we would spend tgt.

practical as he is, vday makes him irritated. the crowd, the marked up prices. he lost the mood to celebrate and among all our special days, vday kills his mood more than anything else. haha!

hmmm... now, maybe there is a way to make February special? and make him hate it less? hmmm....

i m burning my brain out today. fever up to a whopping 37.6 degree. made the boy so angry. cos i didn't know how to take care of myself according him...

haha... well.. he chose to accept the full package didn't he. haha!! hope he doesn't read this

everyone, please meet me for dinners at sushi tei for the whole month of feb!!!! =) in I12 only!!! haha!

It has been a busy and fulfilling weekend for me starting on Friday. And it was on Friday that my shopping spree started as well.

Went to LG with mixed feelings. I was happy to be able to share the good news of my engagement yet at the same time, i know i will be hearing more about the sudden news of one couple moving to Canada. They are close mentors for the boy and I and we had learn alot over the last 1.5 years from them. It saddens us to see them leave but we know in all God's good provisions, this is the best decision for them to make.

Youth Alpha finally started with a loud bang i might say! We have 10 over participants, not counting those who dropped by to visit. I do hope these people can continue coming.



And Alpha's food is always so AWESOME! This is only week 1!



So after my Friday shopping spree @ mphosis, i bought another bag from Charles and Keith. I was almost tempted to buy something from Mango. Everywhere is having sales!



And finally, introducing my new friend after rubee....

I was quite upset when my very old NEC died on me. It has served me since Poly year 1 which was when i realised i need a laptop to do all my projects and all. Or maybe that was an excuse for me to ask my parents to buy me one. But God's timing is perfect. Gave me a timely bonus to spend on this laptop. Oh well, some monies that have to be spent cannot be avoided.

And it's mphosis day today!!! I chanced upon mphosis having sales today and i couldn't resist. I always liked their clothes but it always cannot fit me nicely somehow and i am not so willing to pay their price sometimes.

Anyway, i decided to wear and carry all the things i bought today!! =)
