Confirmation of Trip

FINALLY !! The tickets for my Bangkok trip are confirmed ! Booked through internet last night, and i'm so looking forward. One other reason is because i'll be taking SG's pride n joy-Singapore Airlines !! Yes, can you believe it ? I've never taken SQ before ! Soooooooooooo, double the excitement.
I told Kit Kit how excited i am, looking so forward to the trip. The amt of shopping I'll be doing.....He replied, " I'm getting more worried as your excitement builds up."
Needless to say, we all know what his worry is.

Do you miss him ?

For people who are married, do you miss your other half when he or she is not at home ? I suppose some don't. What's there to miss when you'll see each other again in a few hr's time ? For some, i even believe this may be a good break for them..like having some fresh air, some breathing space, without having to face the person at all times.
Kit Kit is out having dinner with a fren tonight, so I'm at home with my mom & aunt. Suddenly, I miss him, and i sent an sms to tell him that. I don't know why...he makes me angry at times, for he's so slow ( to me ) in doing things, whereas I'm so kiasu and impatient...so he does get on my nerves at times. But on the other hand, he told me I'm sometimes very unreasonable...and I also get on his nerves at times. See, i believe one behaves very differently in front of family and frens. I throw my temper quite often at home, for at the back of my mind, i know my family members will always give in to me no matter what. It is also in front of close family members that you show your true colours.
Anyway, even with all the above, i miss him when i don't see him around. I think after marriage, you grow accustomed to the other person. Even if the 2 of you may be doing different things in
the same house, having each other's presence is a blessing. I find it very secure and safe knowing he's there with me.
Oh well, i'm just a little bit upset that he didn't get me my sunflower for my b'day. He's like any other man who hates giving flowers. The only time i received a flower was last yr's lily for my b'day. I kept complaining, but he said he is romantic in his own ways for he cares for me, and the ways he cares are very practical. Come to think of it, he tells me "I Love You" at least once a day. Isn't that worth clapping for ? It may be just 3 words, but women being women, we still like to hear it.
I guess God has a reason for us to be together. We compliment each other. When i was young, I used to think it's better for 2 people of the same character to be together, for i can't imagine how 2 different people can live together. But now, i've come to realize God works in miraculous ways. As i see couples around me, they're really quite opposite of each other, thus the saying "opposites attract"...and hence, life gets on percefully as each is the compliment of the other. Remember Econs ? Complimentary goods....haha....
Just received a call from him. He's coming home. Yes....one of the best things abt married life is that you go back to the same house together, don't have to suffer those moments whereby you have to bid bye bye and go separate ways home after a date.
I can't wait to see him.

Such a Bliss

Met up with my darling today. No, my darling is not my hubby...hahaha..but another guy.
All along, somehow, I'm always very close with guys. Way before in JC, up till Uni, somehow those close frens i made are all guys. Minus those SC pals of cuz. I always tell my hubby my behaviour is more like a guy : straight forward, frank, and sometimes a bit 粗鲁，which means...rough ? Not to mention that I like soccer, which is a hot fav among all guys. Guess they all treat me as their buddies.
Anyway, i knew darling in JC1...then we became closer in JC2, and through him, I got to know his frens, out of whom 1 has become my buddy as well. One thing abt darling is he always makes one feel comfortable. He'll introduce his frens to you, so that makes you part of his world. But i think that can also be attributed to him being afraid of loneliness and bordom. He once told me he finds going out with the same person boring, and he likes going out with a big crowd. That also explains why he's never with the same person...usually...
Darling was wild but has become more toned-down in recent yrs. Guess age and work stress is catching up on him.
We shared much happiness, crazy times and sadness together for these 11 yrs..yupz, this yr is the 11th yr that we've known each other. Throughout the yrs, our frenship evolved, and now, we're just like family. His mother is my god-mother, which makes him my god-brother effectively.
Darling is actually quite tempremental, and it takes some patience to actually tolerate his nonsense at times. But i guess I've come to terms with his behaviour. I find that I can tolerate more cuz I always have a soft spot for him. What touches me the most is no matter how busy or where he is, he'll always remember my b'day. This didn't change even when he was in Australia studying a few yrs back.
Such is bliss, meeting up over a cup of coffee and catching up.
Such is bliss, having a fren who became a darling brother.

Want a ride home ?

My colleague was raving abt her visit to SK2 boutique spa at Scotts Rd yesterday.
Of course, we all know that it's an up-class facial place, with all those dim lights and nice music in the background....and those services that makes you feel pampered and exclusive...but nothing beats this extra thing that they offer.
It was raining cats & dogs after her facial. She exclaimed, " Oh dear ! I have no umbrella !"...of cuz one will just expect the staff to give her an umbrella to go home right ? WRONG. The staff said, " Not to worry, our DRIVER will drive you home."......wat happened after that made my colleague feel like a royalty, for she was driven home in a BMW.....
She can't stop talking abt it today...of cuz, it's not everyday that you get driven home in a BMW, and it's not a service that every spa offers.
I'm rather impressed, but too bad I'm not an ardent fan of SK2 products.
And yes, I'll like to be getting around town in a BMW, but the driver must be me, myself and I only.
*grinz*

New Hunt

Recently, i have been going into JB quite often. In fact, i just went in for the long weekend.
I went in with hubby, Kelvin and 2 other frens. The 3 of them went in first, then Kit Kit and I set off at ard 4pm, and very miraculously, we reached City Square at 5pm. There was NO jam ! We were so lucky cuz the 3 of them were stuck in the jam for 3 hrs in the morning. Anyway, we stayed overnight at Puteri Pacific, which used to be Pan Pacific...it's so cool to stay over. Only $188 ringgit per night ! And we don't have to rush with the crowd who is going home to SG at night. To top it all, i don't need to pay for the stay as it was a birthday present. hahaha !
What do we usually do there ? We will DEFINITLY go to Lucky Seafood Restraurant. And yes, we ate A LOT...the number of dishes we ordered rather scary. There was once we ordered 11 dishes ! and only 3 people...this time round, we had 9 dishes for 5 people. Not so bad afterall. Our fav dish ? Cheese Lobster. *yummys*
Found out that Secret Recipe@ City Square is selling everything at half price. I mean, a slice of cake may be $5.90 SGD, but over there, they are selling for $5.90 ringgit, so, isn't it half price ? And one must definitely try their chocolate banana cake ! Totally heavenly !
Oh well, maybe I'll go in during the Labour Day long weekend again...but then again, I'd better save some $$ for my shopping SPREE in BANGKOK this June ! Yes...I'm finally going to Bangkok !

Happy Birthday to Me

Today's my 28th Birthday !
Actually, I'm not exactly very excited...i mean, i think only teenagers are excited about celebrating birthdays. After you hit 21, you somehow wish that birthdays don't come so soon anymore.
How did i celebrate this yr's birthday ? I went for a Japanese buffet with my godma, god-brother and hubby on Sat, supposed to go Palm Beach for seafood this evening, but somehow got very tired after today's Sports Day held @ Toa Payoh Stadium, so gave up idea & mom cooked 面线 for me instead.
I really dun mind not celebrating anymore...not that i wanna deceive myself abt getting on in yrs, but i'm just happy and satisfied meeting up with a few close frens and family members for a meal. No more expensive presents needed as well. I guess everyone has the buying power for ourselves nowadays, so it's really who that remembers which matters most. And out of the people who remembered, 2 are my SC frens and 1 JC fren...happy enough.
I think I tend to be very emotinal and nostalgic...as what one of my frens like to say, I'm very 滥情。I wish i can turn back time and go back to my SC days. I dunno why, but i really miss those days. And looking at the Sec girls screaming their hearts for their classes today, I really miss the Sports Day we used to gave. Unity was strong, all of us wanted to be the Champion Class, fought our way to get it...but at the end of the day, all are still close frens who spur each other on during exams. I actually still keep some of the notes my frens wrote to me until today....
年轻是最好的，什么都不用烦恼，唯一要做的就是把书读好。成人的世界太复杂了，很希望回到当初年少的时代。就让回忆陪伴我渡过这个生日。明年的今天，我又会怀念些什么呢？
祝我生日快乐。
