Today I learnt to be even more flexible than I already am. & that even if everything doesn't go as planned, being in the company of great friends overrides almost everything else. There's not many things that can fight with fun & laughter. =D
Oh, love as well. *smiles*
It was supposed to be a lunch thing, 12noon till evening about 5pm? But somehow.. everything got pushed to 11am till 1pm. ._. Darren & Frank was on time.. but... Michelle, Kelly, Xian Ze, & Sally.. not so. Haha. And everyone left at around 2pm or after. Shall let the photos speak for themselves. ^^

Jeremy came by much later than planned.. but somehow, in between an episode of F.R.I.E.N.D.S., a short swim (interrupted by an even shorter sudden downpour), cooking his own vege dish for dinner, cracking crabs for me to eat, a movie (Dolphin Tale), and even a dozen or so girlfriend sit-ups.. he still managed to make me feel so very very loved. hey, today was his first time touching crabs! as in.. cracking them open for eating.. I don't know what to say/type.. I can only smile like a foolish girl, madly in love.
Happy Chinese New Year!

This is what I read to Jeremy on January 8. My friends were sharing it over on facebook. If you can't read it, go figure. =X
女人為什麼會背朝你睡
因為她不喜歡看你的背影
如果你以後抱著她睡
她會安心一整個晚上
你可知道
女人把每一次的愛情
當作是初戀
也是這輩子最後一個來愛
你可知道
女人那麼愛吃醋不是因為不相信你
而是你在她心中太美好
她不希望這種美好倒映在別的女人眼中
你可知道
深愛你的女人在沖你發火以後
自己卻轉身不斷哭泣
你可知道
當女人頂著哭花的臉
走在街上
不管是不是有人在看她時
她的心已經快要死了
你可知道
她只會對她愛的男人嘮叨
也只會對她在乎的人耍性子
你可知道
她的任性 她的壞脾氣
其實都只是在對你撒嬌
希望你更重視她
你可知道
假若她不愛你
她根本不會對你發火
不會希望你去哄她
更不會為你掉眼淚
因為她不愛的人沒那本事
你可知道
當你離開她
留下她獨自一人
她有多大的期待和恐懼
而這一切都只是因為她愛你
而這一切都因為你還不夠懂她
女人知道太多不該知道的事情
男人不知道太多該知道的事情
於是.你們爭吵.你認為她脾氣不好.
她認為你不夠遷就她……
於是.你們冷戰.你以為她沒有完全接受你,
她以為你不在乎她……
請給她一個擁抱一個吻.用你的擁抱你的吻
去化解她心裡的悲傷和眼角的淚水.
因為她只是害怕你的冷漠、轉身和安靜
兩個深愛的人在一起,就要
互相包容,互相理解,互相體諒,互相信任,
否則當你們真正失去時將會遺憾終生
否則美好的未來也就在你們自己手中泯滅了!
希望每一個男人都能夠好好珍惜陪伴在你身邊的女人
她們為你付出過,不求回報 卻希望你們能夠讀懂,
能夠牽著她們的手堅定地走下去
不要讓愛你的女人流淚
不要讓她傷心 更不要讓她絕望和死心!
因為女人一旦真愛了,失去她愛著的人
就意味著失去了整個世界...

Cheki! & what fine work
Friday, 20 January 2012, 11:30:00 PM
The A & F store at Orchard Road is really like a nightclub. But more on that next time..
Breaking News!
I have an instax mini 50s! WOOTS! No bluff!
![]() ![]() |
| チェキ!the instax mini 50s from Japan! |
Hahaha. It's Jeremy's. He bought it off someone whose girlfriend didn't want it anymore, because his (Jer's) girlfriend wanted one. haha! Then passed it to me for long-term loan. It's pre-loved.. so he didn't want to risk giving it to me.. in case my mummy doesn't take very kindly to how her daughter was given something that's second hand.. ahh~ you know how the older generations work.. ><;
& if you haven't already guess what the instax is sitting on.. it's a fine piece of work! =D

The leg covers are super adorable aren't they? There's only 2 designs so far.. dusty pink apples & light blue strawberries.
Room hop till there's no more room.

A bouquet for our 4th monthly-versary. And yes, I plucked out the lil bear when the bouquet was just 5mins in my hands. Haha! Jeremy was all O.O! then he got a lil pouty, cause I plucked out the bear before we took photos with it. ^^"
iKEA meatballs and forest mushroom soup for dinner! Sooooo good~ though, I felt really bad, cause Jer's vegetarian, so food choices were really reallllllyyy limited. >< I thought he wouldn't be full, but end up.. I had to finish his soup for him... ._.
We were at iKEA cause I wanted to eat meatballs and get a chair with a back to use as my computer chair. Jer wanted to just go grab a chair and go, cause he wanted to finish as much marking as he can. Which, although he wasn't to blame, was really sad. Where got people go on a monthly-versary celebration date and make it a touch and go thing? It's like.. "hey, we've got to keep this short. I've got something more important to do." Was really sad.. BUT! things turned out well in the end. *smiles* with many laughs and smiles. & memories for keeping. ^^

One of the best times I've had in iKEA. =]
Headed to GIANT after getting my $29 chair. & got hooks for my starlight! Will post up a picture when I get around to putting up the light. hahaha! *grins*
Oh oh! Jer brought along the DIY Lomo I got for him. He built it up just yesterday, so he could use it today. Teehee!
I hope the pictures turn out well. Though.. ISO200 film.. not very good for indoor shots. ><"
Then the night ends with.. "guess what I found when I got home!?" =D

| a letter from SPH |
A letter telling me to go over and collect the dress I won from Seventeen's Dressabelle giveaway in the November 2011 issue. I checked to see exactly which dress I won, & here's the irony. I bought the same dress for $14 during Dressabelle's Boxing Day private sale event. *palm-meets-forehead*
Then again, it was a lovely surprise when I got home. Teehee~!
Maybe in the future..
mBlogging - Xena of the West
Monday, 16 January 2012, 6:52:00 PM
Attended Jeremy's JC class gathering. Was at one of his classmate's home at West Coast Rise. Which would explain part of the post's title. The other part? It's Xena! Haha. Joel's goldie-mix-collie dog. She's a beauty. Didn't get a picture thou... her features were seriously distracting. ><
Everyone present brought their other half.. execpt one guy who was.. needless to say, single. He's has a really huge appetite though. Coupled with awesome food. =D Hmm.. don't quite remember his name..
Anyhows, the host was really amusing. He's a little like my neighbor, YX. He kept the conversations going. Constantly asking about how each couple got to know each other. And how the guy-with-the-big-appetite's date is Xena. Haha! & this is the part where I have learned.
Most people start to 'sterotype' when they learn of a couple, having met online.
Not many can famthom the slightest true reason, why a young girl would meet strangers she got to know of online.
Some people may not say it, but the slightest change in expressions and the jaw hanging slightly ajar. It's more than enough to guess what they're thinking.
Next time, my story will be;
We started as besties & we are still besties. With romance. =]
mBlogging - First weekend of 2012
Tuesday, 10 January 2012, 12:52:00 AM
Busy! Although I was just DragonNest-ing most of the Saturday away, Sunday was a heck of a ride. In an awesome way of course. *grins*
Saturday;
Helped my dad buy 4D.. my first time ever, buying something like that. Walked half way to loyang point, started to rain.. -.- and when i looked up in front, it was a huge patch of blue. Made me -.-" knowing that the rain was just behind me. Hahaha.
Had a hair cut later at night.. first time I've ever regretted letting my aunt cut my hair an inch or 2 shorter. My duck tails are all back and multiplying by the days! Sigh.. waiting for my hair to grow out again... Won't be layering my hair anytime soon either.
Sunday;
Jeremy had to send his dad to the airport by 8am.. so he dropped by with handmade sandwich brekkie afterwards. I kindda overslept.. so Jer came in while i was sleeping.. was sleeping on a matress on the floor cause i let my Grams have the bed. So... When Jer 'laid down' next to my matress, i turned and opened my eyes a lil.. wondering what's moving.. got a shock for a wake up call. Haha. But I felt really happy, seeing him. Realizing that 'hey! It's him!' And that it wasn't just a dream. *grins*
I think I was having a bad dream.. cause I found my fist clenched, with my nails pressed so deep into my palm there was a lil blood under my skin. ><" Makes me wonder.. just exactly what was I dreaming about? Had the lovely sandwich and tried reading a chinese FB post I shared, to him. It's one of those posts trying to explain the meaning behind a girl's actions. Will share it later.. in a bit. *smiles*
Jer had a meeting to attend in the afternoon, but he came by again to bring me go eat Pepper Lunch! & to do up my OCBC account. He's vegetarian, and Pepper Lunch no longer serves vege meals.. So.. guess what we did to our Chicken Pepper Rice with Egg.. I ate the meat, he had the rice + corn + egg. hahaha! That's one way around the obstacle of eating together. *grins*
Jer & I dropped by TM to check out the shop that does personalizing, opened by my sec school classmate's family. No fate ah~~~ it was closed for a 30min break. T-T so we skipped that and went to Häagen Dazs to get an ice cream cake, Lover's Concerto, 1kg with belgian chocolate ice cream. Received many 'ang paos' with vouchers. There was even a 20% voucher for the cake! Haha! Used it on the spot, obviously.

Then came the reunion steamboat dinner, my dad's side. As usual, my room was the place of gathering. The living room/dining room? The place to eat and listen to the adults busying around with the exchange of CNY goodies.
The above picture is why i say "i need a bigger room". Irregardless of occasion, people are attracted to my room. Especially kids. Sigh.. can you believe that I'm super OCD with regards to the cleanliness of my bed? So not a good match, kids & keeping my bed clean. -_-"
But hey, depending on occasion, I can overlook that. So... Not to bad la~

Celebrated Ann Ann & Wei Wei's birthday (twins).. I happened to see on FB that it was their birthday. Came up with the ice cream cake idea, did the choosing & buying, and 小姑姑 paid for it. Haha!
The birthday girls were surprised and so was everyone else.. when their eyes fell on the cake. Left and right, everyone was saying "everyone take one spoonful each can already". My mummy was laughing the loudest some more. -.- Was defending myself, saying that i was asked to buy a 500g one instead. Lucky never buy, else sure not enough. Cause in the end.. there were leftovers, which i finished the next day.. -_-!
Everyone had a great laugh though. It was pretty awesome. xD
Laughter rings throughout..
one WICKED musical
Wednesday, 4 January 2012, 3:40:00 AM
Had a tremendously wicked time @ the Grand Theater at Marina Bay Sands. Am really proud of myself for being one of the 10 lucky people who won a pair of B reserve tickets (worth $145/tix) from asiaone! Thank you asiaone!
Did a google search after getting home from the musical, to see how many tickets asiaone gave away, and found this!

Now on to WICKED: The Broadway Musical!
The weekday showtime is 7:30pm, with a gentle reminder that everyone should try to arrive 15 minutes early or at least be seated by the start of the musical. There's was a security screening (bag check) and Jeremy had a bag with all our valuables, water bottle, and two plain inari sushi (stuffed them in our mouth while going through the bag check. Was hilarious, talking to the security with our mouths stuffed with sushi. Hahaha! xD Well, security only reminded us that drinking, even if it's your personal water bottle, is not allowed in the theater. Then we had to each hold our own tickets for them to scan. Nope, no tearing or stubs. We got to keep the tickets as they are, yay! =D

| the stage from my B reserve seat (3rd row from the back, 3rd seat from the left) |
The Grand Theater wasn't quite what I expected (in size and a little in appearance).. Looking at the name and the location.. How can I not picture a grand theater at marina bay sands? The place was a lot smaller than what I had imagined. But no matter! The musical was GRAND. The bat-like thing at the top of the stage isn't a bat. It's a dragon! Not that I want to spoil anything, but the dragon moves at the start of the musical and somewhere between. Don't miss it!
The musical runs for 2 hours 30 minutes, not including a 15/20-minute intermission. I think my seat was perfect. At least for me.. Right in the middle of Door 3 and 2, at the back with a full and straight view of the entire "Time Dragon Clock" stage. Meaning.. I didn't have to crane my neck to look at the dragon. Haha! And because I was so near the doors, I was the first out of the theater and in the ladies. No queue! *grins* The downside? Couldn't quite make out the expressions of the cast. :(
No worries though! Audio quality isn't affected. So.. as long as you pay attention to the tones and the lyrics of the songs, it'll still be a wonderful experience. ^^
Got to love "Defying Gravity".. Though, I still prefer the Glee version and the original cast for Elphaba, Idina Menzel. <3

| WICKED souvenir program book ($20) |
Jer bought the souvenir program book ($20) as a keepsake, for our first musical together. There were things like T-shirts, keychains ($12!!), hooded jackets, stationery, and etc, for sale just outside the theater. Or you could check out their online store if you missed it. =]
We went for prata after the musical @ simpang bedok. My tummy was growling and bugging me to feed it. Which in turn, made Jer worried and wanting to feed me. Haha! He was really tired though. But we both agreed that feeling sleepy at work the next day is totally worth it. *smiles*
Goodnight, my wicked ~
