Happy Halloween people! :D Guess who's this crazyyyy doctor?


Quite scary right?? Real lab coat, gloves & syringe. And to complete the look, there's DIY stethoscope and funky specs! :D

My boyf's all dressed up as the crazy doctor for halloween. It's super fun in the States where people really celebrate halloween. Even the farmers have pumpkin competition.


If I were to celebrate halloween, I would wanna dress up as the Pixar lamp. I think this is really cute but everybody I showed it to says it's lame!!! ):



Y U NO fun!!! D:

Anyway, if you've read my previous entry, you would have guessed that I was quite emo for the past week. Because boyf was busy and I felt really upset. Don't get me wrong, I'm not so possessive that I don't allow him to be busy, it's just that our messages & conversations are nothing more than "good morning" / "good night" / "I love you". I (kinda) felt that we're drifting apart.

Thankfully, I'm calm and wise now so I don't kick up a big fuss. I genuinely know he cannot afford more time. So instead of whining and crying, I wrote him a super long message telling him how much I love him & I do miss them, but he should continue to work hard & I'm proud of him.

His reply was "Hugs baby. I also want you to know that the very reason why I can live my life the way it is, is because you have been my pillar of strength, the comfort of knowledge that no matter what happens, there will always be the special someone who will spend the rest of my life with me. It is this lack of worry that enables me to accomplish what I set out to do. That's why they say behind every successful man is a woman. One day when I become successful, I wanna say 'I'll never be able to do it without my baby.'"

I was touched max. I couldn't stop tearing (':

Thank you baby. For all the things you choose (not) to do, just to put my mind at ease. I really appreciate it. So what if you are my boyf? You don't have to do it, but you choose to. And I'm really thankful for that.

Show your appreciation to all your loved ones today! (: So what if he is your dad, or she is your mum, or they are your siblings/ partner/ colleagues/ friends. They are not obligated to love you they way they do. But they chose to do it. Spread the love yo!

Peace.

Hello there. My beloved boyf is really busy these days; we don't even get to talk more than 10 minutes each day. Usually, it would be a brief description of what we were doing prior to the call. Today is no different. But because I'm nursing a cold, I'm feeling unusually lazy. After my shower, I plonked down on my bed and started stoning. And then I grabbed my phone and started reading through old emails.

I came across the emails which the boyf and I used to write to each other during his first 2 weeks in the States. It was before he got his phone line. One of it wrote, "I'm so lucky to have my baby girl (:"

And I teared. Immediately.

Must be the cold.

Or maybe I really missed you. X

I'm finally gonna strike something off my to-blog list! Hahaha. It's been so long - this entry was overdue since June *gulps*

Dinner with 十兄弟 at Chuan Wang Fu Spicy Hot Pot somewhere near Serangoon. It was recommended by one of the Brothers & I'm so glad all the partners came! :D


We look like we're advertising for the shop. Anyway, the food was average, but it's the company I enjoyed the most. Food pictures galore! Sorry I was lazy to piece up the pictures /:


They served lots of appetizers (free flow) so you can ask for as much as you like. They were either super spicy or super salty - true Sichuan style.


And the usual steamboat dishes...


But you wouldn't believe what they have!

.

.

Wait for it!!

PIG'S BRAIN!!!

OMGWTFBBQMCDONALDCHILISAUCE!!!

Looking at the picture is enough to make me gag, much less EAT it!!! So here's presenting the 2 brave souls who wanted to try.

Linda & Kaichun.


Crazy people!! :P

Anyway if you have been reading my previous entries, you would know that the couple broke up recently ): Uber sad news because Linda's such a nice girl!!!

Ok introducing more people, Kaichun, Kenghong, Yeesheng & pretty girlf Xuefen!


Mantou with condensed milk is my fav!! :D


After dinner, they were deciding where to go. Since it was a work day for me, I had to go home to my bed. Here's Linda shooting me, shooting her!


The boys! :D They look like they're showing their middle finger but it's a very special 'V' sign for the Venz Boyz! :D

That's Derkoon, Yeesheng, Dennis, Keeguan, Kaichun, Kenghong! (:

Love them lots. X

As promised, picture post ahead!

Celebrated Aimee's belated birthday at Nabins. It was my second time there and I really enjoyed the ambiance. Carpeted floors, cushions all around, low table, dim lighting - perfect for girlfriends!


Except for the fact that I kept tugging at the curtains while adjusting my seat. It was so scary cos every time I accidentally tugged on the curtain ends, we heard the velcro go 'pzzzz'. Until it finally gave way and fell on me - to the laughter of Shingzers no less. Thankfully there weren't many customers on a Sunday afternoon!

Food was generally good - love the mango float & kebabs!



Plans after Nabins got cancelled at the last minute, so I decided to head home. Coincidentally, the boyf just got home too so we Skyped the evening away.

Awww so cute!

I mentioned previously that my team got the Star Award! Here's our photo in the email circulation. Basically, it's an award to recognize individuals or teams who've had outstanding achievement with a winning attitude and uncommon commitment. I'm so proud of us! (':


And this is our team - 12 men strong! Motherly Bitch is leaving soon so currently she's still part of us.


*

One morning, the boyf whatsapp me "Good morning baby! Wakey already or still nua on bed?"

I replied with this.

HAHAHAHA! But I must look very cute because he replied with:


WAHAHAHAHAHA :D We're such an adorable couple #selfpraise

*

I also explored the newly opened Circle Line. It made me wished that I was still in school cos I could travel all the way to Kent Ridge (i.e. school) without having to change bus. AK decided to spend one sunny afternoon at Botanic Gardens.

People pictures are with Yushu so make do with these for now.


Subway's cranberry cheese cookie is super yumssss!

*

Okay ending this post with a scrap page I made for baby for our 17th monthsary! Been slacking on digital scrapbooking recently cos I'm too tired on weekdays & too lazy on weekends. Hehe. My summary page for September is nowhere near done, and October is ending soon.


P.S. My colleagues have commented that I've put on weight *horror* so I shall snack less in office & indulge in less pig-out sessions! O:

My week in a round-up:

Met up with Linda for dinner in town & omg she's such a nice girl! In just a couple of hours, I felt that I've known her for years. We have so many similarities, yet are very different. Sadly, she's one of 十兄弟's ex-girlf; which means she won't be part of us anymore ): I really feel very down whenever I think about that. I have no comments to make about her ex-boyf, because everyone has their own philosophies in life. Just hope that we can still be fun girlfs to hang out with. Take care babe! :D

Work wise, super h.a.t.e. one of my colleagues now. Shan't say too much but I think people ought to have more sense of responsibility. Especially when you are an adult. Treat your work seriously please? Oh but on a happy note, our team won the Star Awards! Super duper happy to be recognized.

Saturday was awesome because AK organized picnic at Botanic Gardens. The weather was freaking warm so we totally felt like sleeping. Luckily there was food to keep us awake. Hurhur.

Last but not least, I had a very super happy weekend because I talked to baby for sooo super long! Our usuals' about 1-2 hours; which is not very long considering how far apart we are! Lol. Anyhoo, I was super thrilled this morning & cannot stop grinning ever since because...

I got a morning call from the boyf! :D :D :D

We all know how pig my boyf is. Yet I got 4 missed calls from him this morning & when I finally answered, he said "Good morning baby! Go wash up & have breakfast, and I'll go have my dinner. We'll Skype in an hour ok?"

H A P P Y N E S S.

We talked for a while before he reminded me that I gotta get going to meet his parents for lunch. It was slightly awkward but they're always soooo nice to me. Again, the topic about The U.S. Trip always make me cringe ): Resumed chit-chatting with boyf after lunch and all the way till evening. Super love you very much & thank you for taking time out to talk to me *^^*

P.S. In the midst of compiling photos. Promise next post to be lots of pics!

Sorry for the super late updates but I'm trying very hard to blog all my backdated entries! Some days are just plain lazy days /:

Today's entry shall be on sis Noi's birthday brunch at PS. Cafe. Lovely place with awesome food (:



Love spending time with my beloved sisters, taking pictures, catching up on life, eating good food. Can't wait for the next one!

#1332.

Today's entry shall be on baby Clarisse!

Went to visit baby Clarisse & mummy Ting at the hospital the day after Clarisse was born. It was such a heartwarming sight. And I definitely had the warm fuzzy feeling the first time I looked at baby Clarisse. What a sweet little doll. Welcome to the world sweetie pie (: we all love you!

I feel so happy & excited for sis Ting because life is gonna be so different from now on! First mummy among all my close friends (':


Pardon my fat & red arm cos I was nursing a super bad sunburn that time. Hurhur. Look at how delicate baby Clarisse was! Face flushed red from rashes but otherwise a healthy baby (:

We also bought cupcakes for sis Ting from Twelve Cupcakes. And I bought 1 to try - my fav strawberry! It was super delicious I wished I had bought more. The strawberry cream is rich and not too sweet. In fact, it tasted alot like a Meiji product. The chocolate cake base was moist and complemented the strawberry cream really well!


Zirong came shortly after and coincidentally, we were all in nautical hues! Sis Meh in navy & white checkered shirt, Zirong was in a clearly nautical prints shirt, and I was in sailorette shorts! :D


HAHAHAHA I was trying to see if we were in frame (throught the MRT doors) so I wasn't looking at the camera.

--

A month on, mummy Ting organized Clarisse's baby shower! I was soooo happy to be able to carry baby Clarisse again.


She even got her own shirt with her name! Cute or what! :D

Look at how soundly she is sleeping even though there was so much activity going on around her. Sweet angel (:


P.S. Sometimes I appreciate random advise from an outsider - "There is always something that guys feel strongly for, something that defines him. It's their source of motivation & inspiration. It's something that shapes him into who he is today." Thank you KG (: & thank you boyf for always being so understanding.

You know how some things happen for a reason? (:

Like how today I was supposed to meet someone to plan for something after Shingzers lunch date at Nabins. And right after lunch, someone called to say I needn't go because the stuff was not finalized yet. I was slightly disappointed because I didn't have anything planned for Sunday afternoon and didn't want to go home as yet. I was hoping maybe boyf was back in SF and we could Skype but he didn't reply to any of my messages nor answer my calls.

As I was dragging my feet home, I decided to call him one last time - only to find out he just got home & his phone died! So that's why! :D

I hurriedly got home & spent the next hour or so Skype-ing with him. Pure bliss (:

I love Skype-ing with my baby when no one's at home because then, I could speak as loudly as could, about anything & everything, and act crazy in front of the webcam with him. I hate it when my family's at home and they can eavesdrop on everything I say ):

Yes I don't have my own room. But I'm not sad, because there are people out there without a roof over their head.

So there, my simple Sunday. XOXO.

#1330.

My migraine is still here when I woke up this morning. Grrr. Highly suspect it's the ulcers cos whenever I apply medication on my ulcers, the head throbes ultra severely ):

Anyway, this didn't dampen my beautiful Saturday mood. Partly because I had a surprise Skype date with baby last night! ^^ I was super upset & missing him loads cos I didn't hear from him the whole freaking day yesterday. I almost jumped around in joy when I received his whatsapp message that he just touched down in Dublin and thankfully his hotel is in the airport. A while later, he said "Baby let's skype!" And the next thing I knew, I was staring at his tired face against the backdrop of his hotel room. Superrrrrr happy I can dieeeeeee!!! :D

It takes so little to make my day. Despite all the physical pain I was going through. Hee (:

Today I'm determined to start making Christmas cards. I've already got lots of ideas & inspiration & I can't wait to start! Sis Meh also jio-ed me on a last minute shopping date on Thursday because Paper Market & Made With Love were having 45% storewide!!! *faints*

We just bought hundred dollars worth of goodies 2 weeks back, and now they are having 45% discount!!!???

Shittt man, sis Meh & I are such suckers for scrapbooking goodies!!! We went and bought another $50 worth of goodies each. Wahahahahaha. Whenever we meet up to do scrapbooking, all our materials add up to form a mini shop :P

&&& I'm in such a Christmas-y mood now because my team wanna do Christmas events! And I'm made the organizer!!! Omg I kinda love my team now because most of the people I hang out with are so nice & friendly. Ever since we changed seats, I'm away from Tall Guy & cannot hear his complaints so I'm super glad. And now, Motherly Bitch has asked for a transfer to another unit/department so she's no longer with us!!!

OMGWTFBBQ. Life's good! :D

On Friday, we talked about Christmas stuff (so early!!) and I proposed lunch or dinner + gift exchange + Christmas tree in the office. And they were all hyped up about it!

October is a good start, and let it be good all the way till December (:

Smile people, life is beautiful!
