the last entry of 2007

to all readers,
reflect on 2007 and be grateful with what you have cause you may never know what does 2008 brings for us.
have a great 2008!

in life,
there is always a limit, a balance.
once you upset the balance,
it might affect you.
so be smart and balance your life!

gosh!
2008 is tomorrow.
when it was the starting of the year, it seems to past by slowly but when it get to june, the days starts zooming.

what have i done during the past 365 days?
well, definitely a lot!

just a summary on how i got through my 2007.
in random order.

the unforgettable 21st birthday bash i had just 9 days ago.

the attachment i had at ecoflora.

a trip to genting together with the partner and his parents.

attended lsct d&d and we were awarded the best couple.

the partner and i did our first kite flying together.

i graduated from ngee ann polytechnic.

called in class 95 and got through the subaru challenge, which i hold on till 23 hours 47 mins and i can't move my legs.

the partner and i had our tiresome yet rewarding treetop walk.

i got accepted to both NTU and NUS.

the year i become an undergraduate in NUS.

the partner and i had more misunderstandings/disagreements but we managed to work it out together and our lovey dovey moments balance it out.

the year that i have the longest school break!

the year that the partner's dad bought for me and the partner the laptop!

overall, my 2007 was a blast!
i learnt much more about myself, the addition to my weakness and strengths.
the relationship between the partner and i got even stronger despite the arguments.
we are still very much in love with each other.
him aside,
i know i can count on my family members and close friends.
they make me, me.
they are the fun people who i can be myself.
a year that new friendships were being formed and hopefully to sustain for a very, very long time.
=)

oh and how can i forget,
all things are possible because of god.

i am definitely going to miss 2007.

goodbye 2007,
hello 2008!

syukur alhamdulliah.

baby,
your love is a bonus that ease me to go through my every day life.
you are my true love,
i know you are sweetheart.

my weekend with him.

so yesterday,
i had to accompanied the partner for his friend's wedding and soccer.
and i must admit,
i still miss him when we are apart.

while blogging this post out,
the partner called.
and yes, i smiled when i heard his voice.
he was talking in ourfunnyslang.
and i played along with ourfunnyslang.
ourfunnyslang is very draggy and of course, funny.
it is something we used to cheer one another up.

yesterday.


today,
i was awoken not by the construction of the lift but my handphone's alarm.
i put it in snooze and closed my eyes and listen to the surrounding.
except for the fan, the environment is peaceful.
how i wish my every day is peaceful instead of the loud noises.

i had to wake up early because i had to follow the partner and his grandparents to johor to attend his cousin's wedding.

today.

it was hot and it makes us sleepy.

for now,
i am just reading my 2007 posts and reflecting on it.
after that i guess i'll take a nap as i have a new year party to attend to with shikin at the cc.
i hope it is going to be fun!

tomorrow plan is most probably spending the last remaining hours of 2007 with the partner.

honey,
you complete me.

yes, the 3 chipmunks

i wish to sleep more.
but without fail,
there would be thumping, someone giving instructions, banging noises.
arghhh..
i have to give in and forced myself up.
it's too noisy to sleep.
it is the lift upgrading programme.
and my flat really need a lift.
i've been climbing 4 storeys high since 18 years ago.
of course it's no big deal.
but imagine after we have gone for groceries shopping,
we have to carry climb the stairs with bags on our two hands.
it is tiring.
without lift,
it hinders me to have a bike because i have to bring the bike up.
it was a torture i tell you.
despite the noisy morning, i am excited for the new lift!
heh!

don't get me started about the new mrt stop.
the people who are living in the extreme west will understand what i'm referring to.
once the 2 new stops open.
i am happy.
right shikin?
=)

yesterday,
i went out yet again.
and today,
i will be going out.
and tomorrow,
i already have plans.

yesterday,
accompanied the partner to accompany his dad for check-up.
afterwhich met up with shikin and nazierah for a movie date.
the three of us watched alvin and the chipmunks.
and shikin had a good time watching it because she kept saying "cute"

it's a movie that kids would enjoy watching.
the chipmunks are adorable.
it wasn't that 'humouroushumourous' like what others claimed.
it was just humourous.



look at the background,
the man wasn't with us.




i irritated shikin by taking her candid photographs.




this 2 girls make me laugh and make me have a good time.


i didn't went home after that,
the partner together with his parents fetched me and we had dinner together.
i always enjoy dinner with them,
gives me that sense of belonging.

i can't wait to see the partner in a few hours time!
and i can't stop thinking of him.

darl,
i like your new wallpaper.
you are sweet.

science centre day!

it is getting irritating that it takes a long time for my page to load.
sorry readers but patience pays off.
=)
i am so free that i have time to update every day.

for today,
the kids, shikin and i went to the science centre,
as the partner has an event there.
so yeah.

there were mummies exhibition.
but there wasn't much.
they show the costumes the pharaohs wore, the drawings, etc.


this was just a replica.


i like the way they convey a story through colourful drawings.


and so the four of us explored the whole of other exhibitions.
we were sleepy and hungry but that doesn't dampens our mood.
we were all excited trying out different things.
and i must say some things never change.
the last time i went there was in sec 3 and that was 6 years ago!
and the things are still the same.








all of us took a try on it!






and here is mighty shikin in action!




this is our ghost.




i have no idea who was it.








lastly,
the partner in the picture.


conclusion:
we had a fun, enjoyable time and in the process,
we took in some useful information.
=)

i went out with shikin yesterday right?
and today i woke with pain on my torso whenever i laughed!
it felt as if i did sit ups.
laughing is an exercise!
so go ahead, laugh and smile.
=)

honey,
thanks for the tickets!
i can't help it but to love you.
you got me under your spells and i'm loving it.

a day with shiken

i went out with shiken shikin.
and she had a title for today outing:
a day with irritating tyra




ok,
i admit i was irritating.
why?
because it's been a week since i last saw her!
and there are so many things to catch up on!
i just can't stop laughing when i'm with her.


we were out in the morning to post a form and i hope to get a reply from them.
shall just wait and see.
to be completed,
i had to hand in a full body photograph.


and this is what i sent.
i really don't know where to place my hands.
it's awkward to take pic alone.
i don't look like a maid do i?
haha.


you can simply tell how bored we are by the amount of pictures we've taken.


and she just can't be bothered with me.


not for long,
because she can't resist taking pictures.













thanks for the day out girlie!

i had a self declared curfew today.
i told shikin that i'll need to be home by 7.
all because the partner will be coming over my house.


and we played uno stacko!


we played several rounds and....
... i am the loser.
but who cares?
haha.

thursday, i'll be heading to the science centre with the kids and shikin
and i may get a glimpse of the partner.
let's hope i get to refresh some of my sciences.

results were out,
and hell, i know i can give in so much more.
and i know i am going to achieve that.

the relationship i have with the partner is definitely blossoming and it's making me feel good.
real good.
not because he did something nice today is equivalent to the relationship blossoming.
but i've been observing and doing some reflections.
and indeed,
we are connecting even strongly.
and i am very contented with it.

sweetheart,
i am glad that we are together.
i love you!

simple day out

as today is christmas,
joanne invited me and suliza over to her house.


her house interior is nice.
if only it's mine.
heh!

managed to capture a picture.


met up the partner as he had soccer today.
and his close friend were there too.

there was a little hiccup but the partner were understanding enough.
we had a good time together.

after soccer,
the three of us had dinner, had a fun chat and we head home.

a simple day that is filled with lots of love.

honey,
i am simply touched by your action.
i love you.

meet up again.

merry christmas to those who are celebrating it!

those who have been to town must have witness or experience the traffic and human congestion either due to last minute christmas shopping or people merely shop, giving in to temptation because of the big sale signs that is being hanged everywhere to attract consumers.
that was why the partner and i tried to avoid town this past few days.
we had enough of town for now.

thus, we watched i am legend somewhere close to home.
i had to get the tickets at 4 because i'm afraid that it would be sold out by 9pm.
true enough, the theatre was quite full but we managed to get good seats due to 'kiasu-ness'

i didn't read any reviews nor the synopsis about the movie
i was totally clueless about it.
it was about how will smith is able to find a cure for a viral mutation.
the movie is quite quiet in most of the scene, because he was the only man survive in the city.
overall 6.5/10





the partner and i were eating our macdonald's burgers and as usual chatting about random things in life.
and the topic relationship came out.
he was saying about relationship that is being tested.
and i asked him: honey, is our relationship being tested yet?
him: for us, it's different.
me: in what way is it different?
him: for us, we already know (pointing to his heart) deep inside that we are made for each other.
i was astounded by his reply.
it does show that he has chosen me.

and we had a lot of telepathy today.
i was merely saying what i was thinking about.
and he adds in: how did you know i was thinking about that?
i like that telepathy of ours.
(:

sweetheart,
i chose you!

the birthday reflections.

i slept through my sunday,
i couldn't help it.
i was so tired.
even though the partner and i have a rough plan to visit an ice cream parlour together, we had to postpone it.
because it will be a rush date as he needs to be home by 7 to watch the man u's match.
sorry darl and thanks for your understanding.

i thought i wanted to hit the sack early today,
but i couldn't.

so here i am blogging away.

i was going through the pictures that were taken on sat and i can't help but to smile and laugh to myself.

at the moment,
no one complained about not being invited
but i have something to share it out
it's not that i wouldn't want to invite all of my friends,
i am a human and i wouldn't want unpleasant feelings to arouse in a happy occasion.
i want to celebrate with friends who knows the real me.
they don't judged me for being silly, idiotic, etc.
they accept me for the person i am.
i always make a point to make my friends smile and laugh.
i really like to see smiles on their faces accompanied by the sound of laughter.
it gives me a sense of happiness and achievement.

if i were to keep impressing people, i know i wouldn't enjoy myself.
who would?
it's as if you are putting a mask.
how fake.

even though i don't step in a club before, smoke, get drunk, am not rich, doesn't mean i don't have a life.
it's how people want their life to be.
how they want to run it.
i do not have a perfect life.
i have happy and troubled times,
the flow and ebb of life.
i have several arguments with the partner, it's not as if we are lovey dovey all the time.
but at the end of it,
we calm ourselves down and solve it together and making one another understand how we are feeling.

you may be unattractive,
but if you know how to capture people heart with your sincere moves,
you will have their support.

indeed friends are easy to make.
but sustaining a friendship takes a little effort.
i am lucky to have such friends who i can fall back on.
friends who believe in me.

same goes to family,
i have issues with my sister but by the end of the day,
we are still concern of one another.
i know i can count on my family.

i can never be more happier in my life.
without my friends and family,
i am nothing.
what is life without relationship with people?

and honey,
thank you for loving me.
