::Happy F.I.V.E ::
Friday, January 29, 2010
On the 28 Jan 2010, we both turned 5 :) We felt very happy indeed and at the same time grateful that this relationship is still standing strong despite all odds and obstacles.  Im glad that we have made it this far. It wasn’t an easy journey for us, but we have pull it through. There were times that it was just to tough for us to handle, even though we lose our cool during those times, we reflected and we made up… 5 years ago, stills fresh our mind.. And I know that the bf had helped me more times than I can count. He has been my best friend, my inspiration, my counselor & my guide. When I've given up on myself he has always been there to lift me up. His belief in me has never wavered. He stayed through everything irregardless of how unsettling the obstacles can be.You know, our temper can be unpredictable at times. Honestly, I was in doubt at first, on whether this relationship would stand the test of time,but it did :)  As usual,we dont usually exchange gifts on this day, but we do exchange cards and went out to eat or even just take some time off to remember this special day. I made him a card few days before and got him dark chocolates,which is our favourite. The boy on the otherhand, got me a bouquet,a card and a nice top from Mango too.Thanks love! We took many photos but there are just to many to be uploaded.  Days before or even maybe weeks before, we were still thinking of a good place to have lunch or either dinner together. Somewhere memorable to capture our 5years together. The boy listed between Tiffany,Straits Kitchen and Carousel. We both had tried Carousel before, but never dine together. The other time I went was during the Teacher's day dinner, while the bf on the otherhand, had a dinner event photoshoot assignment. So a few days before, the bf called to make reservation for dinner. However, we were disappointed that the dinner was all fully booked. Thus, we make do with lunch instead.  Upon reaching, i realized that i had left the card and chocz at home. How forgetful! Was quite disappointed, but the boy cheer me up and i was all smiling again.  The lunch spread was indeed good too. We had even refrained ourselves from eating the day before to enjoy your lunch today!  Of course, the delicious seafood, Asian & Western delight as well as the fondue and the heavenly cakes were great! The boy prefers his favourite Japanese food, while for myself, I prefer the Western food better.  While eating, the bf told me that he had left the Sentosa 4D Magix tixs at home. So he called his sis and she agreed to help to pass it to us. After lunch, the bf went to the 'Surau' at the lobby to perform his prayer, while I waited outside. When he was done, we left and headed on to meet his sis :) After getting the tix, we left for Sentosa.  The fun starts here :) It truly did :) We took the Sentosa train and dropped at Imbiah. Then we headed on to try the Desperados 4D magix.  It was truly fun and I wanted another round of it again. After the show, we dropped by Ben n Jerry for a tub of Smores before heading to Pahlawan Beach.  It was a good time together and it was indeed a memorable 5 for us :)  The journey isn't a smooth one, but we pulled through The next day, passed the bf the belated gifts :) Read card or read thesis huh? Thanks for the great day!  January coming to its end before February makes its appearance. Next up will be his birthday celebration and then our Karaoke session with the lovely ones. I so cant wait!!
I miss going out with them!

I always look forward to the weekends.. We used to have regular dates or hanging out wiv our friends on those days. But now, due to the boy's busy schedule and his wedding assignments, we appreciate such short meet up, even if it was for him to drive me to work. Look, im not complaining here. On a brighter side, i always look forward to spend time on the weekends with my dearest grandmother. Never mind, if i have to forget about enjoying my weekends at the mall or in town..Never mind, if i have to sacrifice my tiredness and travel to her place. Its something i enjoy doing and i never felt a tinge of tiredness at all. Seeing her smile and making her happy is enough to ease all the tiredness away. I look forward massaging her and even helping her to cook. Such moments are priceless, i tell you.. Like today, i was at her place and i had bad cramps that truly hurt me badly. She was there to ease my pain even if it was to help me apply some ointment on my tummy area. When the pain still continues, she took a cup of air zam zam and asked me to drink. Oh gosh, i can literally cry as i recalled such moments. Nenek has always been my light to happiness and the one who truly love all her grandchildren unconditionally. And i can never ask for more, except to see her stay healthy and fit like she is now. I love you, Nenek. Anyway, our 5th is nearing very soon :) But sadly, i have yet to get him his gifts. Its not fair isnt it, for him to get 2 gifts in a week? Thanks to our anni and his bdae which is just a week apart. So i guess, i truly need to scout for his 2 gifts this week. And i have yet to get the card ready too. We don't inted to overspend or to spend too much this time. Just something simple yet very memorable. Insyallah.

Jangan bersedih bila disakiti, dicela, direndahkan atau dizalimi
Ya Rabb, begitu pemurahnya sifatmu ini,
bagai air mengalir tanpa henti
setia mendengarku dan
sentiasa perkenankan doaku
:: His stories ::
Tuesday, January 19, 2010
The boy decided to bring me around the usual place where he does his usual stuffs. I have never been there before unlike the boy who always visit the wards and who is able to talk and mingle with them. What more, with the boy who always shares with me stories of the daily tasks he does.It truly tempted me to try working there too. Driving around as I listened to him telling me about each building and the activities they have in there, was truly an eye opener. At least i gained something new right?  The boy wanted to get his daily ice-coffee which he claimed to be his usual favourite drink there, dont ask me why he love it so much, cause i dont drink coffee.So we then decided to drop by the canteen for early dinner and even grabbed a cake @ Secret recipe there too. The staffs were very friendly and they truly does their work with good GEMS service :)  Secret Recipe heavenly delicious cake :)

Its only the 17th days of the year 2010 and i have been feeling very low. I can only pray for all to be well again. So far its only four of those close to me who have seen and hear the pain that im feeling. And they have kept me going strong and telling me that the dark clouds will soon be gone. Insyallah.. So last Saturday, we head down to Expo for the John Little sale & the Indonesian exhibition in the morning. At about 12 we dropped by Newton before heading to VIVO to catch the movie that we have booked online the day before.Thank god we arrived in time :)  Why movie? Simply because, partly, i needed that to help me forget all those that have been happening for a while. Secondly, it has been ages since we really watch a movie. I guess maybe mid last year? So, we were torn between Sherlock Holmes and Vampire's assistant.  But we decided to go on with Vampire assistant. It was a good one and i enjoyed myself. After movie,it was lunch at banquet before walking around Vivo. Not forgetting taking pictures. At about 6, we headed back home :) It was then off to grandma house's for me as there was a family gathering as usual :) Now that really helped to cheer me up, i supposed :) How i wished i get such love everyday.... Though many times i told myself, i shall be able to go through them all. But when times were hard and things weren't getting any better, i see myself feeling much low. Haiz... If only i have the power to change things again.. But i know that god will help me through all these. Just look at how much great people he has given me. Their company, their loves and their concerns are only what i needed most.

CREATING PERFECT RELATIONSHIPS?
A person visited the government matchmaker for marriage, SDU, and requested “I am looking for a spouse. Please help me to find a suitable one.” The SDU officer said, “Your requirements, please.” “Oh, good looking, polite, humorous, sporty, knowledgeable, good in singing and dancing. Willing to accompany me the whole day at home, during my leisure hour & if I don’t go out. Telling me interesting stories when I need companion for conversation and be silent when I want to rest.”
The officer listened carefully and replied, “I understand you need television.”
There is a saying that a perfect match can only be found between a blind wife and a deaf husband, because the blind wife cannot see the faults of the husband and the deaf husband cannot hear the nagging of the wife.
Many couples are blind and deaf at the courting stage and dream of perpetual perfect relationship. Unfortunately, when the excitement of love wears off, they wake up and discover that marriage is not a bed of roses.
The nightmare begins.
NO OVERPOWERING
Many relationships fail because one party tries to overpower another, or demands too much. People in love tend to think that love will conquer all and their spouses will change the bad habits after marriage.
Actually, this is not the case. There is a Chinese saying which carries the meaning that “It is easier to reshape a mountain or a river than a person’s character.” It is not easy to change. Thus, having high expectation on changing the spouse character will cause disappointment and unpleasantness.
It would be less painful to change ourselves and lower our expectations.

:: Farewell 2009 ::
Friday, January 01, 2010
Good Morning 2010 :)
As i read through the facebook status and those friends' blogs, i realised that 2009 has somehow been a tough year for many of us. Indeed it has been a challenging one for me too. So for now, goodbye those bad memories.But thank you to those downward curve which has taught me valuable lessons :)And amiss, all those bad memories, the last few hours in 2009 has left such sweet memories for me too. For that, thank you 2009 :)
Looking ahead, im hoping that 2010 will be a better year. Note that i put it as better instead of perfect year. Cause truly, there will be challenges in our life at some point of time and i pray that i shall be able to handle them. Insyallah.
Last week was spent scouting for a gift for the birthday girl. And after comparing the prices, we finally got it at Tamp 1. Thanks to the good deal that the shop gave us :)  So, yesterday, 31.December 09 was the bf's sis birthday.  Bumped into Syahirah and family there. You are looking great mummy-to-be. Can't wait to see lil junior of you both :) Anyway, the bf's parents invited to come along for the dinner @ Han River. Ask those im close with and they will say that i did asked their opinions for some unnecessary stress.I felt nervous. And they were telling me that everyone will face such first meet up too, and im not alone. After their reassurance, i went on with the dinner, praying that everything wil be alright :)     Both me and the bf got her a 16gb ipod nano, which she has been wanting. And yes the colour we got her was blue, for she hates pink. Tsk.. :D  Birthday girl and her gifts :)  When the dinner ended, i realised that i had lead myself to such unnecessary stress, for all of them were very sweet and i didnt felt left out at all. For that, the last few hours of 2009 is indeed a memorable one :) Thank you love, for being by my side assuring me that things will be just great :)
 Happy birthday to you!
