Weekends made it hard for me to blog plus the suddenly throat infection and drowsy medicine makes it seem impossible to blog. But here am I, back on the last day of November to blog on the few days that has passed since last Thursday.
Had a really busy day at work last Friday with so many last minutes things but managed to last till 6pm and it was home sweet home.
On Saturday, woke up even earlier to go to ly's POC at the ulu camp. Will post a few pictures here :)
First time attending POC, it was quite different from POP. After waiting for him to book out, we went for lunch at IMM. Also, finally got the chance to go to Great World City to pick up the bag organizer that was a given freebie. Went walking around Great World City before sitting the free shuttle bus to Orchard to take train to Amk to meet up with Sarah and PC to the Sitex IT fair. The IT was super crowded and after walking a while, everything starts to get repetitive. Managed to buy canon printer ink and bb's protector screen over at the IT fair. After that went for dinner at Tampines. I didn't know there were so many shopping centres over there and we had dinner at Popeyes at 1 of the shopping centres. After some chalet planning over dinner, it was home sweet home.Didn't really go anywhere on Sunday after church, just nua-ing at home to watch Catch Me Now. Had dinner at home before sending ly to book in.
Had quite a busy day at work yesterday and plus not feeling really well. Anyway, managed to get my leave approved :) After work, went to doctor and got few packets of medicines plus 1 day of mc for today.
Slept almost the whole day today, waking up only for lunch and to eat medicine. The medicine really makes me drowsy and light headed. Hope I recover soon!

My 200th post :D
Hmm had a good nights out with dear at imm Jurong East yesterday. 1 person taking a long journey is really different from 2 persons taking the same journey. Had dinner at pepper lunch then walk around imm before home sweet home.
Feeling lightheaded and drowsy now because of the flu medicine. Had been sneezing non stop in the office today :( Couldn't sleep yet, haix.. Hope tomorrow will be a better day..

Feeling sleepy after a few hours of shopping with mum and sis at 313 @ Somerset after church today. Bought quite a few items that are in my clothes wishlist :) Thanks to mum for spending the time and money to accompany us for shopping. After shopping, we had dinner at Marche before heading home.
Hmm, had a wonderful short 2 hours of nights out at causeway point yesterday with ly. A nights out is a bonus that must be treasured.
Monday blues again~~ 6 more days to go!

Will be sharing a short story from Jaime Teo's blog that I find it really true and interesting..
Once upon a time, there was a king. The king liked one of his followers very much because he was very wise and always gave very useful advice. Therefore the king took him along wherever he went.
One day, the king was bitten by a dog, his finger was injured and the wound was getting worse. He asked the
follower if that was a bad sign. The follower said, ‘Good or bad, hard to say’.
In the end, the king’s finger got so bad it had to be amputated.
The king asked the follower again, if that was a bad sign.
Again, the follower gave the same answer, ‘Good or bad, hard to say’.
The king became very angry and sent the follower to prison.
One day, the king went hunting in the jungle. He got excited chasing a deer and deeper and deeper into the jungle he went. In the end he found himself lost and to make things worse, he got caught by the natives living in the jungle.
They wanted to sacrifice him to their God but when they noticed that the king was short of a finger, they released him immediately as he wasn’t a perfect specimen of a man and was therefore not a suitable sacrifice.
The king managed to get back to his palace and he finally understood the follower’s wise
quote : ‘Good or bad, hard to say’ – If he hadn’t lost one finger, he would have lost his life to the natives.
He immediately ordered the release of his follower, and apologized to him.
But to the king’s amazement, the follower wasn’t mad at him at all. Instead he said,
‘It wasn’t a bad thing that you locked me up. Why? Because if you hadn’t, you would have brought me along to the jungle. If the natives found you unsuitable to be a sacrifice, they would’ve used me.”
Again, the quote ‘Good or bad, hard to say’ stands.
The moral of the story is that everything happens for a reason in this world. There is no absolute good or bad. Sometimes good things turn out to be bad things eventually, while bad things become a gain.
Whatever good that happens to you, enjoy it but don’t hold on too tight to it. Treat it as a surprise in your life.
Whatever bad that happens to you, don’t have to feel too sad or despair – in the end, it may not be a total bad
thing.
If one can understand this, he or she will find life much easier.
That really sums up life in short. A really big lesson in life that everybody understands but hard to learn it.
On another note, nobody is perfect in this world. One should just learn to look past the imperfections.
Had made an decision somehow, no more influencing of my decision please as I got a double confirmation. Just please respect my decision.
It is really rare to see people with the same mask nowadays. I admit that I am a different person when I am with different people, I guess this is how I survive afterall. Haix, 真的是有口难言。。Hard to explain, just hope you understand.

This week, my "weekend" started earlier thus my lack of updates and unfortunately it has ended, hence the new update.
Met up with ly after work on Tuesday for dinner at Northpoint, Ishi Mura. It seriously feels like a Friday evening and after dinner we went walking around and played in Time Zone a while before home sweet home.
The reason for my early weekend is because Wednesday was a public holiday and Thursday being the bonus day. Went to watch Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part I on Wednesday at the Grand Cathay with bf. As expected, the whole theater was fully packed with the row in front of the screen also fully seated. Movies couldn't be exactly the same as the storybook so didn't expect much but the movie was really better than I expected with almost all the major storyline shown in the movie. Now, I am looking forward to the 2nd part of the movie what with all the war scene and fighting. After the movie we went walking around town and went down to Marina Square for dinner at Yuki Yaki. A picture speaks thousand words, shall let the pictures do the talking then :)
Quite like this picture with the black & white contrast
See how ice-cream teppanyakki is done :)
Specially love this picture, done by bf!
It isn't easy to "cook" the ice-cream.
New carebear bought by bf :D
Helix bridge..
New addition to the soft toy family..
Had a really wonderful public holiday with bf :) More to come.. Also, thanks bf for the Baby Carebear!
Today is a bonus day and it feels like Sunday. Went to ICA to re-do ic today, luckily it wasn't a long wait. After that went back my house to watch HK movie and nua.. Had dinner at Subway then send bf to cck to book in.
9 days isn't that long, I have endured more days than this. Looking forward to next Saturday for bf course passout. Back to work tomorrow~~

Usually I am able to update my blog everyday, it is only during Friday nights and weekends that it seems impossible. Lolx..
Had a good night out with bf at Jurong Point on last Thursday after work. Took mrt green line all the way after changing at circle line and the journey took about 1 hour from my workplace at Tai Seng. Went to eat pizza hut for dinner and walked around jp then took a cab from there to home. Although the time together is quite short and the journey is long but I still find it worthwhile as night out for ly on weekdays is really rare.
Went to help at my auntie's bookshop on Saturday morning, it is a yearly event and can't believe 1 year of time has passed so fast. After that went to meet ly and we went to The Cathay to buy tickets for the movie: Unstoppable.
Sunday night again but this week there isn't much of Monday blues as there will be a public holiday in the middle of the week :) Hope my leave will be approved, will try to apply tomorrow. Hope that the news that I heard just now isn't true, crossing my fingers.

Had a good nights out with bf! :D Shall update more tomorrow..

How I wish I can see this one day~
A "first" I definitely don't want to repeat.. What a night!
Hmm, hoping for things often result in disappointments but one shouldn't lose hope. Shall keep my fingers cross then.

Well said~~
Just a thought.
Mood has been up and down these few days, it changes so fast that I didn't even realize. Hate when it happens as there is no warning, surprise surprise. Lolx..
Should rebuild the walls as soon as possible, wouldn't want to scare anybody..

"Do you ever just get that feeling where you
dont wanna talk to anybody? You dont want to
smile and you dont want to fake being happy,
but at the same time, you dont know exactly
what is wrong either. There isnt a way to
explain it to someone who doesnt already
understand. If you could want anything in the
world it would be to be alone. People have
stopped being comforting, and being alone
never was. At least when youre alone no one
constantly asks you what is worng and there
isnt anyone who wont take, I dont know, as an
answer. You feel the way you do just because,
you hope the feeling will pass soon and that
you will be able to be yourself again, but until
then all you can do is wait."
My exact feelings, just tired of the mask. Just want to have a good rest from the reality, feeling extremely lost~~

The lack of updates on the blog is caused by the long weekend :p
Quite a good rest from work with the long weekend. Met up with ly after work on Thursday for dinner and movie after his run at West Coast Park. Had dinner at MacDonald and cabbed down to Amk Hub for movie- Megamind.
I think the movie was quite comical and the non 3D effects are good enough. It is even more worth it than Despicable Me. After the movie, it was home sweet home.Went to Kallang Leisure Park with Ly on Friday as we wanted to go ice skating and it was the only place left in Singapore. Didn't expect the controlled timing of strictly 2 hours per lesson so in the end we just walked around before having lunch at Marina Square at Thai Express. After lunch we went walking around Marina Square and then went to the outside of Esplanade sit since the weather was quite cooling. Then we took a bus to Toa Payoh for Koi and dinner for me at Delifrance. Emo-ness, emo-ness. Seriously hope it didn't ruin your day.
The chocolate from Awfullychocolate that is awfully rich and expensive at Kallang Leisure Park.
The long long escalator at Stadium stadium!Watched Final Destination 4 on Saturday. The movie was quite graphic with all the bloody scenes and all. In the end, every character in the movie died. Through watching this movie, it really made me realize that once a person life is up it really is over so we should treasure every person around us and never ever have any regrets in life. After that, had chinese food for dinner at Northpoint and pei-ed him to Cck as he is booking in early this week.
Today after church, went to amk hub to buy tickets for HP7. Finally the last installment will be shown although it will be shown in 2 parts. Quite excited to see the movie as I didn't really understand the book. Seriously slept quite a lot in the afternoon, hoped that I would be able to sleep later.
Help! Monday blues are invading me, Lolx.. Same as last week, hope to have a peaceful and fast week!

I would like to live in this type of world too.. Haix..Sometimes I wonder, how did I survive last Friday and today. Be glad that it is over :) Finally got to cut my hair but somehow thinks that $14 is not worth it and with quite a chatty hairdresser. Shall have an early night. Somehow, I miss the nothing-to-do days.
