::Maquerade dinner :: Friday, February 27, 2009

Beautiful, smart, ambitious, generous,kind-hearted and loving are just the tip of the iceberg for Siti . She is extremely a really dear friend. And one could not deny the fact that aside from her natural beauty, she has a very kind heart too and it does reflect on her face.

I wish you all the love and happiness in the world babe.And may you succeed in your future endeavours.

"Hey babes! Thanks a million for the memorable night. No words could actually express how i was feeling jus now. I am just blessed to have wonderful colleagues turned friends like you girls. Above all, i'm deeply touched and moved. Love you babes!" ~ Siti...

:: Contented :: Sunday, February 22, 2009

Excuse me for have not been updating religiously like how i used to. Simply said, i have been tied down with assignments & presentation deadlines to meet, juggling with the everyday never-ending workload in school as well as falling sick due to working myself too hard i gues..

Thank goodness, im recovering today, so theres not a need for MC tomorrow! Last week, been busy meeting up with the group mates to do- up our presentation. Thanks for the constant presence of my significant other, who was there for me thruout the crazy week. Had lunch cum dinner at Hanis while on the way to meet the group mates @ bugs lib and also an overdose of Gloria Jeans chocolate blended :) Thank Q bf :)

After a loooong weekend of sacrifices due to the busy schedule, at last I was free. The boy too had been busy and despite all those we've made it tru. It was really a breather for us to meet up yesterday after so long. Even though I was running with a high fever and a VERY runny nose, i managed to still carry on. I even warned the bf that i wasnt in a good mood so he was prepared.. But the bf was very nice and he even made me felt better :) Thank you. Two words, but the depth of my appreciation, can't be expressed any more profound than the feelings within me.Thank Q love!

First stop: Bugis Junction & Suntec City

2ND stop: Esplanade & Marina Sq.

3rd stop:Secret Recipe @ Vivo

The bf had always love Japanese food and so he had Japanes Soba, while I had Spagetti Meatballs. And we ordered Esprit passionfruit :)

The wallet i gave him on his birthday - "Warning money fast depleting " oops.. :) hehe..

This morning as I had promised mum to accompany her for shopping, i still went on despite still being rather weak even though the fever had subside. The place was just crowded that made me felt rather giddy.

First stop: Ikea

2nd stop: Giant

Last stop: Tampines Pasar malam

This confabulation had somehow left a deep satisfaction to me :) A great weekend it had been despite the busy schedule :)

:: The BF rants :: Thursday, February 19, 2009

"A man can never lead his life fully, until he has learn and accept that he is going to die"

He can also never move on, until he has accepted his past.
He can look back, and cry over it, but its not the nature of the past that tears him, but the nature of humanity itself.

A man can stand tall, unmoved by what is going on around him. He can smile and ignore the pain and suffering that might just be next to him. However, a man, no matter how strong, will break down when alone or when the time comes.

No man should be denied his tears , be laughed at nor teased. A man should be given choices on how he wants to lead his life. That choice cannot be governed by what is set by his parents or friends, but by the grace of God and for what his heart truly desires.

A man, can accept courtship anytime, he can accept partnerships and relationships but only a man who has withstood time and suffering, will learn to accept LOVE when it comes. He will stumble and fall, he will hurt himself during his fall, but love shall nurse him back to health.

It's only when he has found that true love, will he decide to end all activities and his life will revolve around her. It is only then, that he will say 3 magical words: I Love You.

Hope will be given and lost, hated and cursed, worshipped and in the end, disappointed.
However great a man can be, he will learn to Love and to Hope, and be disappointed.
No matter, HOPE is believing, when others have given up.
Jealousy is one enemy that lurks around without anyone seeing or knowing.
It's an enemy that's dangerous as it itself, resides in every single one of us .
Love knows no boundaries, but love itself can fall prey to jealousy.
However, there is only one that is resilient to jealousy. It itself , is able to fend off jealousy when faced.

Trust.
Trust is the most powerful fighter next to hope. Trust, by itself, is half the battle won against the fight with jealousy.Its not enough to tell a person you love them, it completes the compliment when one says that one trusts the other half too.

4years since we got together. But it seems just like yesterday that we just got to know each other. Honeymoon period.. Was said to last for a while.. but ours still burn strong even after 4years.I love you baby.. muahkz!

Lots of love,

The BF

::: Happy Birthday ::: Wednesday, February 11, 2009

The bf asked me along to join his family for his birthday dinner @ Swensens Parkway last week. But knowing that i was very busy and tired after the loong day, he assured me that it was ok if i didnt feel like going.
On the other hand, his mum & dad booked a chalet @ downtown East last Saturday till Monday. So called another birthday suprise for him la..even though it wasnt really a surprise la.. since he helped out with the logistics..hahaha..
On the way there...
Sadly, i had forgotten to bring my own cam, and had to take using my camera phone. Of all the days, i had forgotten to bring it on that day.. The rest of the pictures taken are courtesy of him & his sis :)

As i had class on that day, i was rushing like mad woman la.Went home first to change and then made my way there with our group of friends.. Even though i was tired, i knew i had to be there on this special day for him. What more his mum had invited me the week before. If his mum hadnt invited me, i tell you, i wouldnt have gone. Since initially when the bf told me, i was thinking of 101 reasons to excuse myself. Paiseh la, with his relatives all.. But it all went well... Im so relieved. :) phew.. i was having cold sweats, i tell you while on my way there..

Reached there at about 7.15pm... His mum cooked spagethi and some of his aunts brought food. What more, his dad had ordered satays, bbq chicken wings, hotdogs, otahs2 from our usual, BBQ WAREHOUSE online.

From left...

Cake cutting time.. Cute la tu, when he was asked to feed his parents and sister,the cake. And to the guys, thanks eh, for laughing and sneering at me... They tot my acting to be nice was funny and cute. Laugh la all you want abd.. hhhmpH!

Anyway, farah jus called me up.. Plans have been made and at last next week meeting them. All of us have been busy with our own life.. Can't wait! Hmm... But have yet to get her bdae present... Time to scout for one...

:: Masam Kucing SourPuss :: Sunday, February 08, 2009

Earlier on, i gave the bf a clue to where i will be bringing him to for dinner on his birthday. And the clue was 'Masam Kucing'. Don't ask me where and how i got the name, it was a sudden 'idea'. He seriously gave up thinking and couldnt make out where was the place. Of course, i was tempted many times to spill it out but this time it was a no-no. So last Friday, after his Friday prayers, i met him up in the evening. And off we headed to the location.

Presenting Masam Kucing Sour Puss... Meoooow!

The deco there was superb and refreshing. The couch and the 'bantal-s' were so comfortable that by zilch chance i nearly fell asleep. The interior deco my favourite. Didnt i say that Purple,pink and black colour was a great combo! That's why they have always been my favorites!

We ordered 'Masala fish and chips' and 'soft shell creamy sauce crab', even though we were craving for the chilli crab. Yummylicious! The bf love the salad the most. It was very appetizing and delicious seriously.Even though, it cost me(since it was my treat for bdae boy) a bomb, i didnt mind, as it was really nice and we both loved them!

Instead of counting candles,
Or tallying the years,
Contemplate your blessings,
As your birthday nears.

Consider special people
Who love you, and who care,
And others who’ve enriched your life
Just by being there.

Think about the memories
Passing years can never mark,
Experiences great and small
That have made you who you are.

Another year is a happy gift,
So cut your cake, and say,
"Instead of counting birthdays,
I count blessings every day!"
-By Joanna Fuchs

After the dinner we sat along the esplanade open stage, since there was a band playing the usual-s on every Friday nights. There, i presented his hamper of gifts. His favourite was the wallet from The wallet shop :) Even though his sister also presented him with a wallet the day before @ Swensens. So now two wallets for you :)

Made our way to Clarke Quay. We wanted to drop by Starbucks @Fullerton Hotel. But last minute plan was cancelled as the bf wanted to go to Funan to check some stuffs. So off we left for Funan. As it was getting late, we headed to Spinelli @ Peninsula to quench our thirst and also to satisfy my crave for a very chocolatey drink.We even bought two chocolate chip cookies. Stayed there for quite sometime.. By the time i reached home, i was very tired and sleepy.

Hope you enjoyed yourself darling bf! :)

I love you..
