I just read an acquaintance's blog and as I went through the entries, each one actually made me think of a different issue very close to my heart. He made it dawn on me again how fortunate I am to have a wonderful family like I do. My parents, thought strict and sometimes over protective, are the ones I know I can always depend on to look out for the best for me and whom never fail to shower me with unconditional love- That is, love in its purest form without any expectations or agendas. And there's my sis, who's my menthor/person-to-look-for-when-in-trouble (esp the kind that my parents are not supposed to know hehheh), companion and friend all in one. And finally! There's my kid brother, who's my playmate, the joker who tell me silly adolescent jokes, my cutie as well as my scapegoat (he young mah!) hahaha! They are the most important people to me in this world and I really really love them to bits (:

And the bottom line of the second issue is: I want to learn to love you better and more than I already do now (: And most importantly, I want you to be happy happy happy! (:

Okay lah actually its basically centred around these two issues. haha!

-
Starhub has been quiet with my bestie Limei, PIC KaiJie and greedy Kaiwen gone ): I miss you all alot alot alot! ): Do remember to come back and lunch with us often k! )):

And thanks Limei for everything right down to the envelopes you prepared for me to last me through my remaining days in StarHub :D I am soooooooooo touched when I saw them in my biscuit box haha! Although I dont realy understand what you are drawing (how come you always draw me dying/unglam in those comic strips AH :D), I treasure them ALOT! (: Really. (: Love you!

And aside to my fake bro Eric Tan Ming Wei (:, many thanks to you for always being there to attepmt to make me smile during tough times at work! (: I really appreciate it too!

My throat is horribly painful. Esp if I unluckily have to SNEEZE /: Wahlao. I know its a throat infection rather than a simple sore throat because my phlegm is bloody, which means my throat is bleeding //: Dammit it hurts ): Maybe instead of just eating my favourite yummy Pi Pa Gao and not so yummy Strepsils, I shld see a doctor.

ever ever after

Its a Tuesday and I'm happily sprawled on my bed slacking! (: haha! I've finally succumbed to fever and flu after all that incessant eating in the office! My guess of what finally did me in must be that gigantic yummy chocolate egg from xian limei yesterday! lol! Woke up feeling really shitty with a throbbing headache and alternate spells of hot and cold. One moment I'll be hiding under my comforter shivering and feeling realy cold with goosebumps, and the next I would be feeling really warm and kicking my blanket off. Damn sian. But I'm feeling much better after sixteen solid hours of sleep! haha! Sleeping really does wonders man.

Big thanks to my colleagues LiMei, Kaijie and EEEE-deline for their texts the moment they heard I was unwell and would be ponning work! So touched (: And of course those from ck! (: Thank you! (:

Some updates from the past week! I made my first batch of cookies for ck for Valentine's day! hahaha! Wednesday was spent at Carrefour armed with my recipe to get the ingredients needed to bake chocolate chip cookies! Thanks Kaijie for the company! My very reliable P-I-C hahaha! I was at quite a loss as to what to buy and PIC was completely useless!! :P Okay lah, other than the fact that he told me one cup of sth in the baking world usually means 250ml! :D Is that even correct? hahaha! Baked them on Friday and I think they turned out quite okay :D Mian qiang lah lol!


Creaming the mixture "until it is light and frothy" lol!


The cookies totally started expanding in size once it got into the oven! haha! So fun!



Met ck early on Sat and we went to watch L! L is so cute! ((: Think its quite an alright show but a little on the long side. I wanna watch PS I love you next! I hope its still available next Sat when ck books out! Lunched at PS then we went down for the NTU talks but wth, the room for the Accountacy and Business talk was stuffed to the brim so in the end, I decided to just abandon my attempt to catch what the prof was saying since all I could hear were various phrases and all I could see were the heads of other people! Slacked at the Starbucks at Suntec and ck gave me a tiny bouquet of nine rocher roses that he made himself (: So sweet! Just what I've always dreamt about! (: Thanks dear (: And they came with a plastic bag of like twenty rocher chocolates! hahaha! I can tell the success rates for your roses arent that high! lol!



ck brought me to Chijmes for dinner and I tried my first alcholic drink outside! lol! My middle name is suaku lah I know. Its called After Eight and I think its really really nice! It has this rich vanilla taste and a light alcoholic touch, abit like those moist liquor chocolate cakes! Bliss! (: We ate at a restaurant called Bobby's and the food was not bad too! Pictures!






ck sent me home and I was totally falling asleep on the bus. I think alchohol makes me sleepy. haha!

Squad dinner at Thai Express yesterday was great, although the attendance was only a grand six people! hahaha! I really miss my squadmates and our activity times back at Crescent! Talking about those times over dinner really gives me a warm, fuzzy sense of nostalgia! (: Camp, the disastrous BBQ, Mrs Yip, strange ghost sightings and crazy times in the RC room! haha! I was just asking Limei yesterday which period of her life she would choose to repeat if she had the chance. For me, I think it still be my Secondary sch days with my squadmates (: Those times remain closest and dearest to me even after all these while. Sentosa trip next, people! :D Hugsssss! Pictures next time!

every line, every word, everything

Omg my poor legs are about to drop off!! Shopping trip with my Mom has been largely fruitful and fun! :D And I bought my first dress!!! (: Yayyyy! Unfortunately, I realise that under certain lightings its kinda transparent! And my Dad say it looks like some nightgown. hahaha! But nehmind, I like it! (: I bought new denim shorts too! But its quite fitting so like have to suck in then button that type hahaha! I tried the one that's a size bigger and its far too lose! Damn sian! Shall take this as the motivating factor to lose some weight! I'm seriously getting fatter after bingeing on those irresistable goodies like a pig on chinese new year! ahhh!

Damn tired now!
Four more days! (: I miss you!

st valentine's

To my Garfield, (:
THANK YOU so much for the lovely surpriseeeeeee! (((: I was really really really happy and touched that day, except for the fact that you were far far away in Tekong )):

Happy Valentine's Day dear (:



Surprise bouquet from the orange cat, delivered to my land! (: As you can see, I think he got cheated cus the roses are abit abt to wither. hahaha! The florist sucks!



And lo and behold, the only Valentine's day present permitted in Tekong on the 14th -MMS! hahahaha! Unfortunately, due to the laopok-ticity of his phone and the great reception on this distant island, I think he couldn't even receive it! lol! Tough present lorh, I locked myself in the room and took like twenty shots and I still managed to look retarded AND unnatural! Anyway, I bet if he sees this, the first thing he will point out is my lack of a nose bridge! lol! Actually I have one okayyyyy! Just that the camera never capture it lorhhh! :D hahaha!

Ahem. Just realised I'm publicly exposing my flaws! Moving on, I had a really good time today with my dearest squadmates at gekling senior's 21st birthday partayyyyyyyyyy! (: I really really missed them so much and I just feel SO SO HAPPY catching up with them today!! :DDD I can't remember having laughed this much in like, three hours! hahaha! Practically non-stop okay! I love you guyssssss! Can't wait for our 25th Feb outing! (: And Thank you Gekling senior for inviting us and serving us yummy food! (: I particularly like the fishballs! haha! I'm regretting that I didnt eat more of them just now cus I'm like a bit hungry now.





Sad to say, my phone cam really sucks. Shall wait for the other higher quality ones provided by the pros (:

Tmr is shopping day with my Mommmmmmmmmm! (: Yay!
