Updates from Armenia

和仕源在一起的日子:第741天
SG Time: 12.01am
Armenia Time: 9pm

Talking to Darling on Skype again. I just bathe Cookie and myself. Bathing Cookie once again makes me think of Darling again. Cuz we usually bath Cookie together, it’s something that we always do together.

Every little thing reminds me of Darling. Even the tv program now reminds me of him! But I’m feeling better now though…

Me and Cookie smelling good after our shower.
I send this pic to Darling too =) Wearing Darling’s tee to sleep.

I know I’m really hopeless right. Haha. Some reading this blog might think that ’she very kua zhang leh, 14 days only need to be so sad meh?’ But I’m really sad and I really miss him alot alot. So much so that I’m unable to put how much I miss him in writing.
But I’m really feeling so much better now, perhaps cuz we have been talking for quite awhile already.
Armenia is 3 hours behind Sg, it is dark over at Sg when I chatting with him, but not over at his side. Probably this is one reason why I feel he seem further away this time round.

Some of the pics Darling took.

Darling went for his lunch and here’s some pics of his food.

Armenia Local Delicacies
The photos dun really look that appetizing right, kinda like sticky and gross.  But Darling say it’ actually quite nice. Haha.

Armenia Tea
Which isn’t nice, according to Darling.
Maybe should add some pearls.

Darling self - pic at the restaurant

He send me this 2 photos, wanting me to try to spot the difference.

The difference is….
The S$2 note. Haha. He pin it on the board 2gether with other currencies.

Armenia is not so much of a tourist spot actually. It’s mainly historical buildings and Darling say the buildings there are all kinda old.
But things are expensive. His meal costs him S$25/- and a 20 minutes taxi ride cost him like S$50.

Some kind of drawing on the floor.

New friend that Darling got to know at Armenia.

Missing him.
Darling 不要担心我 okie =)
Hugs.

SMT Day 1 in Armenia

和仕源在一起的日子:第741天

I’m so lousy leh. Talking to Darling now and crying also. Haiz. I dunno why, but guess it just feels really different that he’s not around on a weekend.
Suppose to meet Winnie for dinner tonight, but tummy not really feeling too well so have to cancel. Haiz.

My just tears just keep flowing, I can’t stop it from flowing. Haha. So lousy. =( Uncontrollable.

Back to normal stuffs.
Yesterday was Jesslin’s last day with Stafflink. We ordered in, quite a spread. Shepherd’s Pie, Sushi, 933 Golden Pillow and other finger food. All of us had our lunch in our conference room.
I didn’t eat alot though, cuz still having some issues with my tummy. They are staging a rebel I think. Smell of food turns me nauseous.

I had 1 small crabmeat sushi though, Wen removed the seaweed and gave me the rice and crabmeat.
Nice hor. Haha. She say must ‘take good care’ of me when Darling’s not around. Haha.

Farewell Gift


All of us @ Stafflink

Probably cuz I didn’t really eat much during lunch, I was really hungry close to 5pm. Dinner is only at around 7 plus, after much internal struggle, I got myself a tuna sandwich, share with Wen though.

But still felt nauseous after the sandwich.

Met up with the girls for dinner, finally. We have been trying to meet up since Aug till Oct. Haha.
Dinner was at Fig and Olive.

Me, Jiahui & Qiuyan

Friends since Primary 3! Actually me and JH have been in the same class since P1 but somehow we dunno each other exist till P3. Haha. And we got to know QY during P3. She started taking the school bus as me, and me being the very extrovert and hyper friendly gal at that time, approached her and talk to her to make her feel at ease. Haha.
Cuz she’s like a ‘newcomer’ on our school bus. And turns out that she stays really near my house, and that’s how we became best friends.
Those days seems so faraway and yet there are some parts of our childhood days which I can still remember.

I guess I was the more domineering gal those days, and always 出头 for them if any boys bully them. I’m the super tomboy kind of girl, or rather I’m not like a girl at all. Haha.
However, among 3 of us, JH is the oldest cuz she’s the Jan baby, than QY who’s 10 days older than me.

Each of us perhaps really change alot since primary school days, in terms of appearance. QY is the super observant kind and she really go in-depth. She said my face became sharper, cheek bones higher, eyes also different, and became fairer too.
Sounds like I went through plastic surgery huh? Haha.
But they say… my nose is still the same! I know I know!!!! Everyone seems to notice my nose. Haha.

QY say JH didn’t really change alot but I really can’t tell. Cuz I’m always bad with faces. I can remember any faces that I ever seen before, even just once. But I can’t see like differences or similiarities.

After dinner we went to one of the ktv pubs, I’m not sure if it’s plasma.

As usual, relationships was one of our topic for the night. We also told QY, never let a relationship become a routine. Just like our past relationships, we let it became a routine. Only meet on weekends, and no conversation exchanged throughout the meet up. The guy will use his pc and the girl will watch tv and sleep. There’s really no point in a relationship like this.
So, never ever let your relationship become something like this.

Someone told me once that if we look back and observe, we will realize that the guys we tend to attract are of similar traits. Might be small little points that we can’t really see.
Hm, I think it’s true to a certain extend but maybe not all? Cuz I seriously dun see any traits that Darling have and my ex have, apart from same age maybe.

I really think I’m really lucky to have SMT by my side all these while for the past 2 years. It’s been my happiest 2 years. And I hope our love will be ever-lasting.
Hugs Hugs.

Walk Down the Memory Lane

和仕源在一起的日子:第741天

Our 1st Holiday =)
We were contemplating between HongKong and Taiwan and we chose HongKong.
Went in Jan 07, where it’s still considered winter/spring at HK. Weather was great and the air was great. Darling was saying he dun mind staying at HK, forever.
And since he’s the fast-paced workaholic kind, think the HK pace will be just nice for him.  Hee.

It’s was an especially memorable holiday for us as it’s our very first holiday. We did lots of plannings and recee and my letter about HK to 88.3 got selected too!


Cookie with Daddy.
Darling bought Cookie for me after we came back from HK. I can still remember the first time we saw her and the first day we bougth her home. All the little details from day 1 to now.
From the little tame gal to a super aggressive and notti spoilt gal.
Thanks Darling for bringing her to my life, our life.

Our 1st Year Anniversary, Sep 07.
Darling surprise me with gift and flowers. While I was sleeping away, he was busy preparing, buying flowers and hiding them.
Dinner @ East Coast, the place we used to frequent lots.

Our 2nd Holiday.
Krabi 08.

We wanted to go somewhere with sand and sea for relaxation rather than a place with buildings and polluted air. Initial location in mind was Redang, but too bad it was the monsoon season. After choosing from the few islands, we short-listed Krabi.
And it was nice.


Darling’s 27th birthday, Jun 08.
Dinner at Fig and Olive followed by Sex and City. And also a not so ’surprise’, surprise cake. Hehe.
2gether with e ferris wheel frame we bought in Dec 07.

07 memories
Us painting Darling’s room to orange with sun shining.
And the super big prawn we got from uncle.
Somehow we were more ‘hardworking’ in the earlier days, we did the painting the week after we came back form HK and we didn’t sleep at all for the whole Saturday!
Dun think we will want to do that now. Haha.

Darling’s 26th Birthday @ East Coast, June 07
Cookie’s 1st Bdae @ Home, Oct 07
One of our random pics, 08

Celebrated Darling’s birthday both at home and at East Coast. I specially made breakfast for Darling too =)
It was Cookie’s first visit to East Coast as well. Not forgetting Cookie’s very first birthday! Cake and a small feast for her.

08 memories
Stepping into our 2nd year of relationship.
Celebrating family festives and family short trips.
Darling embarked on a new career, traveling has been real common for him and he always get me stuffs.
Not forgetting our next phase of relationship, progressing to applying for our very own nest and we got our choice unit =)

Singapore Flyer Surprise
Darling told me months ago he have a surprise for me, but I have to wait cuz it’s not ready yet. And it turned out to be tickets to Singapore Flyer!
We’ve been talking about going for a ride when it’s ready, Ferris Wheel is really something rather significant to us. And I still remember when we were out one day, I pointed out the Singapore Flyer Opening advertisement to him, he appeared nochanlant.
In fact, he already ordered the tickets!
Thanks Darling!

07 Memories
Darling cooking Macaroni after our swim with Cookie at Petgamart. I did promise I will learn and will cook in future. Dun worry. Hee. Cookie with her new shoes, Xmas present 07.
Presents from Darling, Samsung MP3, which I’m still listening to now and I bring it out with me everyday without fail, and also the nice poloroid camera that we love!
Picard bag from me to Darling and us with Cookie.

Mixture
Shrek with Natalie. Participating in Carvival with Meiling and Keith, and won the 10,000 cash! (We wish). Haha. Bought our first photo album but ended up not using it. Now all our albums are tastefully decorated with cross-stitch stitched by Yours Truely. Hee.
Us camwhoring during dinner. In fact we were rushing to finish our dinner cuz we were supposed to bath Cookie after which.

Some of our close up shots.

07 and 08
Photo taken at SS’s wedding and ML’s wedding. One year apart, guess we do look different.
Darling bought me to the Zoo Zoo Zoo!
Love our trip there, our very first ride on a horse carriage! Just like a Princess. Even though it drizzled Darling still went to enquire on the horse carriage so I can get a ride on it.
Love the Baboons too.

Trip to Science Center 07
Back to childhood days.
The Zoo and Science Center. The super big balance balls and the boring Omni show.

Our 2nd time to  Night Safari
Darling bought me to Night Safari before our Zoo Trip and it was nice.
2nd time we went with Dong and I’m really happy that we are able to bring him there. Missing him quite abit since I seldom get to see him.
And this time round at Night Safari, the brave 4 went into the Mangrove Walk and saw BATS!
I can only remember me screaming, screaming and screaming.

24th Birthday, Feb 08
Celebrated my 24th birthday with family. Dinner at the famous crab place at AMK and Darling gave me a surprise birthday cake.

All these photos bought back lotsa fond memories and there will be more to come =)
Time now is 1.55am. Darling landed in Germany at 10 plus and he’s boarding another flight to Armenia at around 3am.
I’m really missing him so so much, looking at all these photos made me miss him even more.
I’m glad to have Cookie around, I can’t imagine not having Cookie in our life anymore.

Darling, must take care of yourself.
Me and Baby will be good.
Hugs.

和仕源在一起的日子:第740天

I’m just so lousy! I feel so sad that Darling’s not in Singapore for the next 14 days. I know it’s just 14 days and not like 14 months or 14 years or what. It’s just a mere 2 weeks and I will be seeing him already, but it just feels so different…Especially when the trip cross over to weekends. We are always 2gether on weekends! I’m really feeling very sad but I dun wan him to get all worried and upset about me when he’s away so I gotta be strong.

We chatted till late around 2am yesterday night before I went to bed and Darling did some last packing and went to bed too. He gotta wake up real early this morning for his 9am flight. We chat again this morning and now he’s on board already.
I felt sad all over again this morning when I was talking to him, thinking that he won’t be able to accompany me for 2 weekends. But I keep telling myself time will pass real fast, it always flies, right?

And if Darling go for his reservist, I won’t be able to see him for 2 weeks too. He might be able to even call me and there’s no internet connection too. So this is still better.

I know he’s worried about me but I will be fine Darling. I will take real good care of myself.
Furthermore I know it’s for a better future for the both of us. You are working very hard =) And this job will bring you further in you career. It’s a good career move, regional exposure will definitely bring you to greater heights. And me, I shall be your very supportive gf and wife-to-be.

Darling bought me an umbrella  yesterday, also from Esprit, pink colour too. But this time round, it’s a darker shade of pink, alittle like magenta but on the darker side. Think it’s better, haha. So it won’t get dirty easily. Haha. Darling say to keep the old umbrella too, than we shall have a collection of Espirt umbrellas in future. Haha.
But all the dirty Espirt umbrellas. Haha.

Be meeting JH and QY tonight and Winnie say to meet for dinner tomorrow, accompany me.
Haiz.
I’m so lousy! Haha. Wanted to msn Winnie this morning but she wasn’t online so I text her. She will be flying to HK on Monday till 20th++, around the same time as Darling. Nice if I can join her, but I’m already absence from work for quite a few days this month, so not very nice to take leave again.
And I dunno if it will make me feel better or not, being at HK with lotsa memories with Darling. Haha. Wait I start crying at Central how? Haha.

I’m the kind of person who prefers to hide at home or be alone when I’m feeling sad rather than going out. So I’m not really keen in going out too. I’m afraid I might miss him more when I’m out, cuz usually when I go out, he will come and pick me or meet me somewhere and we will head for home 2gether. But now I will be going back home, without him around.

They say distance makes the heart grows fonder (not sure if this is the correct sentence, but it’s something like that lah), haha. Or 小别胜新婚. I think it’s really true.

He’s gonna reach Germany at around 10 plus tonight and he will call me from there. Than followed by a 5 hours waiting time before he board another flight to Armenia.
Gonna be a tough flight. Long long journey.
Darling must be extra careful okie?

Darling, I really miss you lots lots lots!!!!
*Hugs*

October 10, 2008

Armenia, Finally…

和仕源在一起的日子:第740天

Darling will be flying to Armenia tomorrow morning, around 9am flight. He will be leaving for airport at around 6am in the morning, 13 or 14 hours of flight, transit of 5 hours plus and he will only reach Armenia early morning on Saturday.
I’m gonna so so so miss him!
Sobs.
I actually cried just now at his place. Haiz.

On MC today, I had one of my worse menusration cramps in my whole life. It came on my exam day, full blown on the 2nd day and the cramps came with it. And it’s really bad. Took panadol in the morning before I left for work, stopped the pain for awhile and around noon the pain came again. Deb gave me another pill prescribed by her doctor for mense cramps, I took that too and I only felt better at around 3 plus. Initially I planned to see a doctor and go home and rest, but there’s loads of work to do, tons of emails to clear! And I felt better around 3 plus, so I stayed on.

But the cramps came back again when I’m on my way home. It’s those super duper pain kind, and came the mirgraines too. I usually took a train from Marina Bay, so I can get a seat. I closed my eyes and try to sleep on my way back home, but I felt nauseous and felt like vomiting when I reach Braddell. Thank god it’s 2 more stops to home, I almost want to puke already.
I quickly alight and went home straight and wait for Darling at home. Darling wanted me to go back home first, he will pack dinner for me.

I totally had no appetite. Told Darling to get some soup for me, I just want to drink soup. Dun feel like eating anything else. And so he got me soup and he also got golden mushrooms and mee just in case I’m hungry in the middle of the night. But I totally dun feel like eating anything.
He suggested just drinking the soup and he cook the golden mushrooms for me. But I dun even feel like having golden mushrooms.
I drank a few mouthfuls of the soup and I felt like puking already. The smell of food turns me off.

I went to lie down and Darling got me hot water and I tried to sleep. But had problems sleeping till morning, Darling was there the whole night taking care of me and accompanying me. I woke up many times in the middle of the night, and around 5 plus there’s this real bad headache.
I really dunno what’s wrong man. Is it just mensuration or I just happen to be sick as well?

Actually now I’m still having slight pains, so I dun tink it’s mense cramps anymore since it’s already like the 3rd day.
Hope I will be better tomorrow.

Luckily Darling was there with me throughout, I cannot imagine if he’s not around. He will get me evening primrose when he’s back.
Hopefully it helps.

Darling left office earlier today to get winter wear for his Armenia trip, think it’s kinda cold over there. I’m really gonna miss him alot, he will be away for about 14 days. But he say he might come back earlier, I hope he does come back earlier.
Cuz I’m really gonna miss him. Thinking of the 14 days without me makes me cry. I know it’s not really that long, not even a month! And I dun wan him to worry about me when he’s there, so I shall be brave.
But I feel sad. He’s not around to eat potato chips with me, to watch tv with me, to crack nonsensical jokes  with me, to hug me to sleep, to buy bubble tea and waffles for me, to massage for me when I have backaches, to go buy tidbits in the middle of the night, to get supper when I’m hungry, to pile up pillows and bolsters for me before I sleep, to cook macaroni in the afternoon when we wake up and so on and on and on.

I’m really gonna miss him alot alot alot alot alot alot.

One of our long distance relatives passed away, someone that I dun tink I ever met. She’s actually Ann Kok’s grandma.
Yah… AK is like our super long distance cousin. 华人一表三千里, we have tons of relatives, cousins, uncles, aunties, nieces and nephews that we dun know of and have never ever met them before.
Dad was asking if we wanna go for the funeral, but dun tink I will be going.
Dad be going though.

Darling’s not around, everything feels like not so beautiful already. I dun see rainbows. Everything’s so dull and colourless.
But I shall try to be motivated and be happy.

Cramps

和仕源在一起的日子:第738天

I finally clear my Statistics Paper!!!
Yeah! Hurray! After studying till late nights for the last few days I’m finally done with it. Feel really good now, no more worries about school, lessons and exams. Except now I have to wait for the results to come. I’m just aiming for a pass actually. Haha.

Mense came yesterday and it’s one of the worse I ever had. But maybe I should be thankful that the mense only came after I’m done with the paper, if not I think I will be even more grumpy with no mood to revise at all. Just hoping that my mense won’t come on the Bangkok week.

Darling be flying to Armenia either this Friday or Saturday and he say he will be back around 23rd Oct or so. It’s like so so long! This is a long trip loh, much more longer than the usual 5 days. I will be spending weekends without him! So far even when he travels he will be back during the weekends.
I downloaded Maple on the laptop yesterday. Very ‘duh’ right. After big hoos haas for not allowing Bro to download and yet I downloaded it. Haha. But I’m not gonna be playing every minute and every second like Bro. Haha. So I won’t spoil the mouse pad and the keyboard!
Haha.
Downloaded it coz Darling won’t be in town for a longer period this time round, I will probably be playing wiht Maple to pass time. Spend more time with Cookie too. When I think of going out without her when Darling’s not in Singapore, I feel sad leh. Haha.
She will always give me the very sad look and I feel guilty.

Cookie’s getting more and more naughty these days, 2 years old liaos and getting more rebellious! Haha. She happily digged the dustbin few nights back and made a mess in the kitchen. Darling beat her and she made one of her ’sounds’ she usually make when she’s feeling pain. Think Darling hit her alittle too hard and after that he felt bad also and we coddle her immediately. Haha.
Lousy hor.
Yesterday she poo outside our room also. Haiz. ‘Kena’ another beating from me. And she got angry after which but still came over to me to ask for ’sayang’. She will throw tantrums one loh, after we beat her.

But she’s been eating alot of ‘good food’ lately. Instead of her usual dry food, she had cake, cookies, meat and ‘kueh bulu’. But tink we have to control her abit, if not she will be overweight and afraid she will not want to eat her dry food anymore.

We just realize the Sex and City we got is actually only Season 6 loh! Which is the Finale Season. Haha.
I was already wondering liaos, cuz there’s only like 5 or 6 discs. And the show started with Carrie already not together with Aidan and Big and Miranda already have Brady and Charlotte already know Harry which is STRANGE. Like so out of nowhere.
So I’m suspecting this is not the full season. And indeed, it’s not. Haha. I’m actually watching backwards! But I really love it.
And I’m touched by the love Smith have for Samantha.
Now I shall wait for the full season to come. I can’t watch it at home anyway!

Before I started my paper yesterday, thoughts of Darling and me came flowing back to me all of a sudden. All the little little things we’ve done and all the little memories.
Everything that he has done for me just to see a smile on my face. I really love him lots lots.
And thanks to him, my life seems to be more beautiful each day.

Looking Forward

和仕源在一起的日子:第736天

Quite a fruitful revision for the past 2 nights, felt sense of satisfaction when I finally clear the doubts and got the correct answers to each questions. Hope I do know how to apply them on Tuesday. It’s a open book paper, some people might think that it’s easy since it’s gonna be open book, but it’s actually not! It’s equally tough, but at least I dun have to memorise all the lengthy formulas. 

Time now is 11.18pm, gonna go toilet, LS again. Been having this real bad stomachache since morning. And afterwhich I will be burning mdnight oil all the way till dawn. Tuesday’s paper will be at 2.20pm, so I probably won’t stay up too late tomorrow night, will revise alittle and go to bed and wake up with a fresher and clearer mind on Tuesday.

Apart from celebrating Cookie’s birthday yesterday, we went BH for another reason. To taste their food and also for a further discussion with Daniel. Things went quite well, food was nice and we managed to finalize most of the details, except for the decor which we will confirm again when the date is nearer. Now we will have to think of the theme we want and other stuffs. 
So far, BH is the nicest in terms of the flexibility. They can really cater to our all needs and are always open for discussion. Not regimental at all, which is what we like. And also, having ‘chemistry’ with the organizer is very important too, they can than understand what we want and provide us a better service. I think by far, we are one of the most troublesome couple. Haha. But so far things are going the way we wanted and Cookie will be allowed on the day!
BH is a super dog-friendly place! They are all so nice to doggies, we bought Cookie there that night and all eyes were on her. Everyone’s looking at me, or rather her. Haha.
And they gave us an extra chair to seat Cookie, asked if she’s eaten etc…

BTW, I’m gonna stop blogging on Our.Wedding.Matters. Darling and I felt that we should just have one blog to blog down everything. cccookiesncream is really meaningful to us too and I prefer to blog here actually. Haha. So I will remove Our.Wedding.Matters soon.

There’s really quite abit of joyous events in 09 and I’m really so looking forward to it. 3 more months to our Bangkok trip. =) And more surprises to come in 09.
Was looking at the air tickets to BKK earlier on, the cheapest now for budget airlines for the duration we will be travelling is around S$255+ per pax. So I guess we really got ourselves a good deal. S$375 for 2 pax, airport taxes and luggage fees included.
Looking around for hotels now. Anyone has any comments for PJ Watergate?
We are not looking at a really lavish hotel since there won’t be time for exploring and enjoying the hotel facilities. It’s more like a place which is clean and comfy for us to rest for the night and get ourselves ready for the shopping spree the following day =)

Looking through forums and everyone else has got their own preferences. Some say they didn’t like Platinum and prefer CTC, while some say they prefer P to CTC. 
I guess we will still be going to both, shall do some planning =) Cuz I wanna go Khao San and also Chinatown! And there’s also many other places to shop. =)
And also, we can get doggie stuffs at CTC and Siam Square. 

People always say, humans are good originally. It’s the upbringing and their environment which will mould them to be someone perhaps better or worse.
How about our character than? If one is proud or selfish, self-centered or petty, happy go lucky and generous, is it also from our environment or we are just born to be like that?
Sometimes we say babies are just like a white piece of paper, we paint them, we colour them, and they are what we mould them to be. But yet other times, we say ‘he’s so stubborn, just like his dad’. So, are we are really a white piece of paper when we were born or we already have certain traits in us?  

Alrights. Time to study. =) 
Darling might be leaving for Armenia soon, probably Wednesday if there’s tickets. And it’s gonna be a trip that’s like maybe 2 weeks or so?
And he will bring me for Kuishinbo when he’s back.

Cookie’s 2nd Bdae

和仕源在一起的日子:第739天

4th Oct 08, Cookie’s 2nd Bdae!!!

We went Joo Chiat to collect the cake from Elaine and she gave Cookie a free cookie.
Haha.
So nice of her. She’s a friendly lady and her cake is nice. Check her site here. We are thinking of ordering some bites or cakes from her again for our ROM next year, so the dogs can have a goodies bag and/or food too!

Cookie is a super inquisitive dog, she couldn’t sit quietly throughout the journey, moving here and there. Standing up by the window looking out at the streets and wanting Daddy to carry her.

I wonder if she knows it’s her birthday. It will be nice to know what she is on her mind.

Nice mango cake. I took a bite too.

My favorite pic - top left
She looks so cute there, biting on the happy birthday wordings.

We bought Cookie to Sembawang Park for her celebration. Initially we wanted to sing her a birthday song at BH itself but there’s like alot of people and so after dinner we found a quiet spot in the park and sang her a song than cut the cake.

But BH is really a super dog friendly place, all the staff were nice to Cookie and offered to bring her a chair so she can sit on it. Normally restaurants (alfresco area) are very touchy about letting pets sitting on their chairs, which I can understand too lah.
Anyway, BH was really nice and friendly. We tried their food and it’s pretty nice actually, we kinda like it. After dinner we met up with Daniel and did a further discussion, and than….
We made the deposit! Haha. So we have like confirm the venue for our ROM. Will update more on my next entry =)

After the dinner, we went on to cake cutting in the park itself.

The mangoes were really fresh, I wanted to eat it upon seeing it.
It’s been a wonderful 2 years with Cookie, from the day we bought her home till now and the many more years to come.
Thanks to Darling for bringing her into my life, our life and thanks to Cookie for bringing us happiness.

Happie Birthday Baby!
Daddy and Mummy loves you!

KTV Session

Another KTV Session with Win. Singing or Screaming? Haha. Both lah. Chat and sang and snacked. I can’t wait to finish my Sex ‘n’ City so I can pass it over to Win. Haha.
Than we can discuss some of the ‘hot’ scenes. Haha.

She was telling me about Mama Mia, one of the movies I wanna watch but exam, exam!!! Have to put all the entertainments aside.
Relationship is really all about trust, you have to trust, be happy and enjoy the relationship. If your relationship tires you down, makes you feel sad and worried all the time, than probably something is not very right with your relationship and you probably need to take a step back to re-evaluate the whole thing.

Different people have different needs and they fall for different people and attracts different people too. Everyone have their own expectations when it comes to relationships. You will have an ‘idea’ in mind, what kind of a partner you would want to have, and should you not find the ‘right’ person, will you compromise?
I guess to a certain extend, we do have to compromise but not to the extend where you give up all your expectations and settle for something way below your expectations.

Some like their partners to be alittle possessive, show more care and concern and be more sensitive, whereas others prefer their partners to give them more freedom.

As we grow older, we change. In terms of personalities, appearances, thinking etc… We have different expectations of our job, family, friends and partners.
Women these days are getting more and more independent, they need not depend on Men to survive, they have their own career, friends and life. Is this one of the main reasons divorce rates are going up?
In the past, women tend to stay on in a marriage no matters what happen because of children and because they have no job and can’t survive without their hubbies but today, divorce is just signing the papers and things are settled.

I’m not saying that only the Women are the victims, Men are victims at times too. As I say, it’s not always the Men who stray these days, Women stray too. Is it due to the same reason of women getting more independent?
Why does a relationship of 10 years can just change overnight?
人真的是嬗变的吧?

I always believe there’s no rights and wrongs in relationships. No matter what happens, both parties have to be responsible.
I believe everyone will ultimately find their true one, it’s a matter of time.
I believe in fate, I believe in 缘分.
You might not have met the right one yet, but you will, ultimately.

Maybe sometimes we shouldn’t 强求?What will be ours will ultimately be ours.

Once again, I must say this. Time Flies.
It’s October now and November be here soon after which we will be celebrating Christmas again. 08 seems to be a real short year.
Another reason for me looking forward to 09, apart from our holiday and our rom, it’s the ezycash. Due to the investment fraud, I had to loan this amount from ezycash and after repayment of 2 years I’m still stuck with another year. A total of 3 years, throwing money into an empty well.
This loan will end Sep 09.
I already 看开 liaos, no point getting myself upset and angry all the time over this. Though sometimes I will still get super frustrated but I know it’s pointless.
And somehow I think the money with V is not gonna come back. What I dun understand is, why do some people have no sense of intergrity?

On the surface, everyone seems nice and doing well. But actually deep inside, they have their own issues.
How many people are really doing well? And how many are actually only 表面风光?

No doubt I’m angry over the irresponsibility part but I’m also disappointed.
钱,真的是最致命的武器.

I actually miss work! I hope my exam will clear soon so I can go back to work. Once again, it proofs that I prefer working to schooling.

Was really pissed with MIS.
Yesterday afternoon I called Mag many times and I got her voicemail again. Than I called the main line and was transfered to her again and finally she picked up my call. I told her about the exam permit, and I was told it’s okay if I didn’t receive it, I can just bring my IC and go for the paper. But I still need to know the time and venue right???
Than she gave them to me.

So at night when I got home, I saw the letter from MIS, finally.
And with the exam permit and everything else, there’s a letter stating I’m being barred from the paper! What the f**k.
I missed some lessons but I supported it with MCs and emailed to Mag. But judging from what I know about her, she’s the kind that no matter how many emails I send, she will ‘overlook’.
And I believe she did not document my MC into my attendance.

And ya, I spoke to her yesterday on the phone about my exam permit, she told me she’s no longer our student coordinator. I’m like ARGH. Than WHO IS?

Anyway I send them an email and waited for their response. Called them from 9.30am to 11 plus, voicemail again. Was really pissed liaos loh, Tues is the paper and now I’m told I can’t attend the paper and when I call in the day, Mag still told me to go for the exam will do.

And finally Mag called back in the afternoon and she say I CAN GO FOR THE PAPER, the barred is a mistake.
See, I know she did not hand over my MC to the relevant departments.

In the past when our coordinator was Allycia, she’s so nice and efficient!
But hell, this is my last time with MIS.
The school is great, but this coordinator is not.

New Potted Plant

和仕源在一起的日子:第736天

PH just came and went, one day rest is over, officially. There’s another PH this month though, on thte 27th Oct =) There’s a outward bound company thingy on the 25th Oct (Sat) which will take up a day.

Darling is in Singapore this week. =) Happy. We can celebrate Cookie’s birthday! His trip to Armenia is postpone to next week instead, probably mid week till I dunno when. Probably 2 weeks max?
Darling bought me for steamboat on Weds night, it’s like a small encouragement dinner before I begin my revision. I’ve been saying I’m gonna do my revision since dunno when but I have yet to really sit down and do much revision.
But I did study some lah.
After the motivation dinner, there’s no reason to not revise already! Haha.

Darling say I always have 小小的愿望 or request for rewards when I didn’t really do anything.  Haha. But he always fulfill my small wishes though. I went back home early on Weds night to wait for Darling and he came over and pick me. Was raining cats and dogs when he finally reach AMK. Presented him with the little surprise I got. Hee.
Small potted plant. Haha.
The pot is in the form of a monkey. Nice leh.

Darling drove with me chattering all the way and it’s really pouring. We only have one small miserable umbrella. Darling held me real tight and we quickly walked to the Steamboat place but still got wet. Haha.
Supposedly it’s a real good weather to be having steamboat but our dinner was shorten and disrupted cuz Bro text us with bad news.
Cookie’s eyes was swollen for no reason that night, but when I left the house she was still alright. Initially we thought it’s just alittle swollen but when Bro mms me the photo it seems really quite bad. So we quickly finished our food and went back home.
Indeed, it’s quite swollen leh. Dunno why. =( She kept blinking her eyes like it’s kinda 辛苦. So poor thing. But when she sees us she’s still very naughty leh, still as vibrant and want her meat again.
Overall seems ok just that she’s got swollen eyes.
We accompanied her till late than went back Hougang, told Bro to take good care of her and keep us up to date if she’s still not okay than we will bring her to the vet.

Tuesday night was good cuz it’s a rainy night =) Was really tired by the time I bath and I’m like so lazy to do any revision. Darling nagged and nagged and nagged, and I studied alittle before I requested to watch Sex ‘n’ City for the night and go to sleep. Shall do the revision the next day instead.
And finally… I get to watch. And Darling did all the set up for me. I just lie down happily on the bed and wait.

I really LOVE Sex ‘n’ City loh. It’s nice! I really like it. Especially the episode of Charlotte and Harry’s Jewish Wedding. It’s so so so funny. I really laugh out loud from inside me till tears came out that kind. It’s really so so funny and so so nice.
Darling like the show too, cuz it’s really funny.
If you are thinking it’s a very bimbo-istic show with silly old women, than you are very wrong. All these 4 ladies, they are not bimbo at all. They have their career and is successful with them.
I find it’s nice and real, I mean it’s really kinda like a reality show.

But I really like that episode, was feeling tired and that episode really perk me up.

Been trying to reach USDB on the line but can’t get them on the phone! And so we ordered from Bakers’ Grub instead.

The cakes looks nice! And this is the one we got for Cookie. Mango Cheesecake.
S$28 I think. Have to collect from Joo Chiat on Saturday than will celebrate her birthday at BH. She’s 2years old! That’s so fast!!!
Thinking back, our HK Trip than back to Sg and we got her through Karen’s recommendation. Hee.

Was bathing Cookie yesterday when I was telling Darling, I think we are kinda lucky already and should be contented.
Was about to drop the idea of buying a doggie initially when Karen called and told me that her friend is selling away a maltese at S$100!!! It’s like WAH! Maltese! The dog we have been wanting to buy and at S$100 only. That’s the cheapest deal anyone can ever find. Somemore pure breed and she’s lovely.
It was like a love at first sight.

Than we wanted a new camera, and we got a super good deal. S$90 for one of the latest brands. Not the latest latest but still.

And we got really good deals for our BKK flight.
And many many others.

I think alot of times, we have to be contented with what we have in our life. Though contented doesn’t mean being happy with current situation and not working hard to improve it. We still have to strive our best to make our current better however we should learn to appreciate things and people around us. Everything happens for a reason.
The reason might not benefit you, but it’s a learning process and you learn something from it.

Life always have their ups and downs. We have to get even tougher when the going gets tough. Moreover I’m not alone.

Something from SC, investments and relationships are always high risk and yet people still can’t stop investing in both. No matter how hard people fall, they will try again, and again and again.

I finally get a taste of how rumours spread. Haha.
Win told me she was chatting with an ex colleague and the ex colleague told her that I’m ROM-ed. Haha.
Duh.
Somehow I dunno how it spread and spread and it became from planning to ROM to already ROM. This is what happens normally I guess to most people. 一传十,十传百 and on and on and on till the message got distorted.

Was folding the clothes yesterday and was asking Darling how should we split the housework in future? I suggested that he mop and sweep the floor whereas I will fold and wash the clothes. Washing is easy what! There’s washing machine.
He say he dun mind doing all they  physical work like sweeping lah, moping lah and cleaning the windows and stuffs like that. Hee. Which is GOOD! Cuz I hate those!

Here’s the nice potted plant.

Darling with the plant

I actually have tons of things to say but I really cannot remember most of them. My mind is flooded!!!
BTW, we are looking for good photographers for pre-rom shoot and on rom day itself + good rom packages.
