THERAPIES!!!

I LOVE THERAPIES!!!! :):):)

Woohoo! Ok, just had a great one. No, its not that typical therapy. I am talking about something else. Something that is... unique. :)

Ok, my cheeks are stiff from all the smiling and laughter. This is what I want. Something simple yet never fails to boost my morale and give me the reason to believe in all the hard work I put in. And that is all I needed.

Its really amazing when/that "Life's Simple Pleasures Came From You". Indeed. I will cherish it.

Busy

Busy. Indeed, since the last time I blogged, it has been nothing but rest.

Its already the second of my 'studies' and I must say, time isn't on my side. Sigh. Still procrastinating. The modules are somewhat relevant to my career but one of them seemed rater abstract. I am kinda struggling to stay abreast with the lectures and amount of readings. There goes my weekend.

I am sort of giving up on Mafia Wars on Facebook. Just playing occasionally these days. I guessed I reached the point of boredom, knowing that I have overcame the gears and obstacles in the game.

Relationship-wise, lots of events both minor and major happened. It was not a smooth journey and the 'honeymoon' era seemed to have slwoly faded. Yet, I am not disheartened nor do I regret, for it is only expected that the sweet times will only last so long, and that in fact is the true start, to test the strength of the relationship. I am confident, despite the pain, cold and hurt incurred by me. I must emphasize: I am not being emo here. Rather, I am reflecting on the past. What I say, the tone I used, may drop a hint of sadness, but I am definitely able to pick myself up. I am merely putting those memories to words, so I can archive and reflect upon myself after some time.

I have never been more serious in any relationship. I am sure, with time, and some compromise, plus plenty of trust and communication, we will be putting on the rings for each other. :)

I have also somewhat concluded on our 'weaknesses'. I am sure she knew whats one thing that 'annoy' her and as for her, well I shall not comment here. But I find the issues nothing that serious. It may even turn out to be something pleasant eventually.

No matter what I say or feel, as long as you don't let go, I will always be there. :)

Mother's Day in advance!

Had a fulfilling day. And another milestone to our journey.

Went out for dental appointment in the afternoon in the pouring rain. The colour combination for the next 4 weeks - Yellow and Purple. As usual, it was chosen by her, and the reason for this comib? We were on an SBS Transit bus and she got the idea from the bus-pole, which was purple and the bell was yellow. :)

So afterwhich, I went back and got a haircut from the usual barber uncle. Not too bad, at least this time the hairstyle was what I wanted, not too thin and short, just nice.

So after showering, I was pondering if I should head off for the library to read my books. Somehow the rain made me felt lazy and I didn't want to spend the extra money on transportation or food, so I gave it a miss. What a blessing in disguise, as she called me out since her mum invited me for dinner together to celebrate Mother's day in advance. :) In fact I missed 2 phone calls, until I received the message later. But thankfully, I still got the info in time and quickly changed my attire and head off to Marina Square Yuki Yaki.

I got the table and shortly after, she and her mum and sis arrived. It was a dinner full of laughter and I got teased many times for not holding the chopsticks properly. Oh well, its a bad habit and I have to undergo lessons from her already. Got told off many times either for doing it wrongly or not doing something correctly. Heh. Well, I am used to it, and must adapt. Thanks to her mum for kept telling her off in return. Haha. And my poor dentist became the target board for her to vent her frustration. She insisted her sis foot the bill, so I had no choice. We went shopping for my sneakers while her mum and sis went downstairs to to shop for clothes. We didn't buy any sneakers in the end as there isn't the right size for the shoes she picked. Plus, the service isn't that good either.

Went down to walk around then we decided to head to Suntec City's Haagen Dazs to have our desserts. I decided to treat them, since her sis forked out for dinner already. Not too bad, but definitely very sinful. It was also my gift for her mother since we were celebrating Mother's Day. :)

So we headed back home via EW line and it was also the first time I stepped into her house. At last. Her dad left a very good impression, at least better than I thought/ was told. Well, I will remember this day indeed. I didn't stay long, for it was rather late, and she bade me goodbye.

Looks like we have advanced further. I will continue to work hard. :)

End of Exams.

Well, technically, it ended on Tuesday.

The worst of the semester may be over, but somehow, I don't feel overjoyed. Yes, the burden is off, no need to take the train every other day, and I don't need to worry about waking up early and eating the same canteen food. But I just don't know why its just like any other day. Maybe I play too much. Maybe I expected it. Maybe I am worried for results. Maybe I know that these 4 months or so aren't exactly a holiday period.

Yesterday, as I walked back to the bus stop, I couldn't help but look down and sigh. It was a really slow walk, and suddenly my eyes just start to well up again. I didn't turn back, for I didn't want to be disappointed. I am not trying to be emo. Its just me who likes to keep thinking. I just blame myself whenever things go wrong. I don't ask for much, but when I do, I really need it. A simple thing, a simple gesture. Someone once sang this to me: "If you miss the train I am on, you will know that I am gone...." That time, the lyrics went in my head and came out the other side. Now I truly experienced what it meant and the pain behind.

When I don't say, it doesn't mean I am fine.

No, its not anyone's fault. It may contradict with what I say, but really, I cannot blame others. I learnt my lesson. And I learnt it the hard way. Even if I think its their fault, who am I to point fingers? It doesn't solve the problem and I end up hurting others.

At the bus-stop, I made a wish. I wished that after a night's sleep, I will forget about any unhappiness. It usually works. I think.

And now, here I am typing away. My mind just wants to shut itself down again. It has been my natural defence mechanism against any form of unhappiness. Just press the off button and things won't be as bad. Ignorance is indeed bliss.

Tonight, dad and mum are going for a short holiday again. And I will be lonely again. Yes, my brother(s) will be at home, but what I wanted....

Am I thinking too much? If I am, please come to me and give me a slap to wake me up. Sometimes I ponder, what do I really want? Time? Hug? Laughter? Yes, I need them all and more.

I need recognition.

3 down, 1 to go

So far, I have cleared 3 papers, namely Maths II, Physics II, and Computing, leaving me with Chemistry.

I am guilty to admit I have started my mini-celebrations right after my Computing paper on last wednesday. I brought back most of my stuff in hall, and thanks to Teh's parents who offered to send me home with all my stuff. So I started throwing aside all my mugging and started chionging FB and CoH.

So many days have passed, and I admit I played a lot. After all, Chemistry is the easiest paper, even easier than 'A' levels. But like what Teh warned, if its an easy paper, expect the bell curve to shift against your favour. I have already started preparing for the paper on next Tuesday. And afterwhich, its really time to put the books aside. I am already planning what to do after that:

1. Bring back all my belongings from Hall.
2. Tidy up my room.
3. Start training for IPPT again.
4. Complete my remaining modelling kits. (King Tiger, F-16, German Panzer Grenadiers)
5. Read my self-improvement books.
6. Watch Letters from Iwo Jima and Flags of our Fathers.
7. Prepare for my 3 modules at SAFTI MI.
8. Driving Lessons.
9. Movie & Drama Marathon with her.
10. Holiday? K.I.V.
11. National Runway Cycling
12. AHM!!!!!

Well, the abovementioned are non-exhaustive and are based on what I can think of now. Subject to changes, depending on circumstances.

I just watch "Ice Kachang Puppy Love" with her at GV Plazza on Friday night and I am going to give it a 4/5. Totally worth the watch, and to me, the ending was kind of unexpected, though she somewhat predicted the ending. Heh. A touching movie which I can relate to rather well, and many a times, I saw her in "Da Jia Yu" or "fighting-fish",  rolepalyed by Li Sinje. Hahahaha. But that's what make a person different, unique and worth cherishing. :)

Had a mini-date with her on last wednesday after my papers too at Siglap Pizza Hut. Her sis worked there too and it was kinda interesting seeing how to the two of them 'interact' even with my prescence. Hahahaha. I cannot imagine if I were her sibling, probably get bullied everyday too.... :X I hope I am won't end up like that after we settle down.

As for yesterday, I woke up at 1230pm, had lunch, and KO-ed from 2pm to 6pm. :S Totally like a pig. So now I am going to chiong my Chem till late to redeem myself. Till the next time. :)
