Being myself =)

Today is the last day of my general elective.

I feel both sad and happy that it is finally ending as today is the day of the quiz,but it's also the last time I will probably see all my group mates together again. We went through 2 huge projects together and bonded quite a bit.

There's 2 parts to the quiz. The first part consist of 15 MCQs, 30 marks. I managed to get 24!!! =P The second part consist of 2 questions, but it is group answer based. I was grouped with Chris and Royston.

I couldn't recall the name of the last stage of Piaget's theory. Neither could the guys. So they suggested peeping at the notes. I disagreed immediately.

They peeped anyway and told me the name.

I wrote it down.

I handed in the quiz and admitted to the teacher about what the guys did. I do feel bad about betraying the guys, but I believe that betraying self conscience and integrity have a much much bitter feeling.

So I betrayed the guys.

They do not know of course.

Sorry guys.

But I'm real glad I did the right thing.. high scores can't give me back my integrity.

2 years of sourness, SWEETNESS, bitterness and spice =P

today is our second year anniversary =)

We celebrated on last Saturday at Suntec City's Cafe Cartel. The food was great!

To my guy, just want to say thank you =) these 2 years have been fulfilling, though it wasn't a smooth ride.. but I'm really glad we went through the ups and downs together. Thank you so much for tolerating and giving in to me all the time =P for being my ATM, and most importantly, for being my boyfriend =P You are really very very brave to be my bf lor...

Went to gym today with Crystal and Chang yan.
I was happily running on the treadmill when a very well fed looking guy, a bit long hair, wearing specs, dressed in a thin white t-shirt and black shorts started running beside me.

I was still happy.

Unti my friends beckoned me over while i was cooling down and told me softly that the fat guy is the pervert they first met on their first day in the gym.

>.< yucks

I commented on how common the pervert looks and I suddenly realised that no matter whether one is a pervert, murderer or drug dealer, they all look like any of us.

Normal.

You will never ever think that he or she has weird funny habits.

I made up on mind to make that very plump pervert look like a loser if i ever run beside him again. Who asked him to stare at my friends and I? HMPH! Next time round I'm going to run faster if i ever have the luck to run beside him again. (touch wood!CHOY! )

And I reaslised that I have none or very very little triceps and biceps. Argh. Pathetic. :"_":

Handed in 3 lab reports today as well... WEEEEEEEEEE!!! =D

^_^ Enlightenment

whew... just done 2 lab reports.. 3 more to go :"_":

My boyfriend and i had an argument last night. In our argument, I wondered aloud why I'm happier when I'm out with my friends rather than out with him.

"That's because you have expectations from me, because I'm your boyfriend, a commitment. Will you have expectations from your friends whom you are not exactly commited to??"

I guess not.. even if I do, it's very little..

I never enjoy arguing or quarreling with him. But at the end of it, I do get a better understanding of him and myself. And I'm very glad that's how he feels about arguments or quarrels too... Of course the process sucks. But.. It somehow brought us closer too.. =)

Come to think of it, I totally hate to argue with my friends. I love all my friends very much, and the last thing I want to do is to lose them. So I never or hardly quarrel with them. Just once if I remembered correctly. I gave way and apologised to my friend.

My boyfriend is the only one I can and will really have a big fight or quarrel with.

Because at the end of the day... I believe we will still be holding hands.. =)

And we are celebrating our 2 years anniversary soon... very very soon! =)

"Always believe in what you want and you won't get lost"

that's what he said to me in his sms last night when I asked him how does one know whether he or she found the right half.

I commented that he had a strong mind.

"I just don't doubt".

I don't understand really.... what makes him not to doubt and stick his mind just on this girlfriend of his. What makes him so sure that she IS the one for him???

He's strong will make me realised that I did the right thing by asking for a short break.. He had no doubts or qualms about the girl he wants to be with. But I have.... I'm just not sure..

sorry

This time I’m blogging out of guilt…because I don’t intend to attend the violin practice today even though I must admit I really need it.. but I feel that I really need a break. Even Xing yi commented that my eyes are bloated already.. >.<>.<

Just last saturday i asked for a 2 months break (holidays) from my boyfriend. He was quite reluctant initially but in the end he gave in to me.. ( as he always does .. =) ) He asked me for some good reasons and I told him these :

1. I do not want to vent my stress on him like last year
2. Our relationship can stay fresh =)
3. He can look for a better girlfriend in the meantime...

Just in case you are wondering, I feel that a good girlfriend is one who can share his ups and downs with him... and perhaps.. most importantly, loves him and take good care of him as much as he loves and take care of her,...

And I must admit that I can't fulfill the last point very well.. And since i can't give him the future, I thought that maybe i can return him the present....?

Many a times I tried hard not to sms him... but I always find myself wondering what's he's up to... is this a habit? or am I missing him...??

21

I’m 21 =)

Ever since 19 I had been telling myself to celebrating my 21st birthday and I was so glad that I did. I had a blast and totally enjoyed myself at my own party… though I must admit that I nearly burnt down 1 whole metal mahjiong table.

It was hilarious! Initially I only had a few layers of newspapers on top of the pink plastic table top sheet. I positioned the 2 BBQ pits on top of the newspapers, thinking that they would never catch fire..

I was naïve.

Within 10 mins after the start of the fire, the newspapers started smoking and caught fire themselves.. I was still laughing when my friend asked me to get some water to put out the fire. Mum was stunned to see the poor rubber layer of the mahjong table burnt.

HAhaha….

Xingyi spotted a wooden plank which some neighbour of mine dumped. So we placed the plank on top of the poor table, and mum sacrificed 2 pots to place them on top of the plank. And needless to say, the pits on top of the pots =P

Within 15 mins, the wood actually started smoking.. I poured some water onto the plank and into the pots.

The water started boiling… “___” lll

It was then someone suggested using bricks.. ( don’t ask me why I never thought of that….)

And finally and safely, the BBQ started.

Just want to say a huge thank you to my friends, Xingyi and her boyfriend, Jieying and Crystal =)

If not for you guys, there won’t be any BBQ and the mahjiong table would be legless…. =P

This year’s party was especially meaningful as it was the first time I invited my secondary, JC and Uni friends to all come under 1 roof =) I was worried that they won’t interact with each other in the first place but then again… that was before I witnessed the wonders of mahjiong..

My boyfriend Max actually bought me a bouquet of 21 red roses! I was so touched… nearly cried.. Because usually I had to beg him to give me flowers.. even on Valentine’s..
