The B.

I guess the picture says it all! I have been most fortunate to be showered with a lovely gift.

An early V-Day present, he says.

So You’d Know

“I don’t want a perfect relationship. I just want someone who I can act silly with, someone who treats me well and loves being with me.”

I have you.

I’m late. My Bad.

I had planned to catch this earlier when I first found out we would be bound for SF in mid 2011 but there was a change of plans and we ended up elsewhere. I was disappointed at the time and had no choice but to wait till 2012!

But when I heard Wicked would be performing right here in Singapore, I was ecstatic! We had plans to catch the Opening Act but alas, we got too busy and it totally slipped my mind.  I sorta forgot all about it and I was supposed to book the tickets.

This morning, he asked if I would still be keen on catching Wicked and yes, we are going to catch it this week!!! Whee!

Thirty First December Twenty Eleven

I am unbelievably late this year! Eeks! I normally would have gathered my thoughts and wrote them down. Well, like they say; ‘Better Late Than Never’.

There is so much to be thankful for this year-Family, Work  & Relationships

Work – It has been a good but torturous learning curve for me. I honestly think it is only the tip of the ice-berg and there is so much more to learn. (I do not see the top of the mountain as of yet, I will get there!)

Family – Still not spending enough time together but being away from home has helped in forging stronger relationships especially with the sister.

2nd Family – 2nd reunion dinner coming up and somehow it still feels a little strange, like the 1st time. It will be a bigger affair, I hear. We are having family coming in from Australia, this time.

Relationship –  My pillar of strength! The one who keeps me sane and also the same one who wants to punch me at times when I get on his nerves. The same one who ‘jaga’ and ‘sayang’ me and now he cooks! Whee! How awesome is that??

We were so damn engrossed in playing that we did not even exactly pause -

No Countdown! No Rah-Rah!

(There was $ at stake, that’s why)

A Long Overdue Date

Yes, the both of us had busy schedules and I’m so glad we made time to have lunch together. This was supposed to happen, way back in May but alas, I fell sick and we had to re-plan for a later time.

She brought along her little girl who is so adorable and having conversations with the little one, so interesting yet so random. Keke! I was even more surprised when she handed me a gift, with a handwritten card! Can I just say how much I appreciate handwritten cards? It is so rare for one to receive a card these days – especially NON-ELECTRONIC ones. That’s not all, I received 2 lovely bags *Happiness* which I had my eye on for awhile but just couldn’t decide to take the plunge. We ended our lovely lunch with ice cream from Marble Slab! Yummy!

I like this friend and she is for keeps, definitely.

How Very True

“You never awaken to the same day twice.”

The Second

Christmas came early for me! I didn’t think I was able to score this but hey, what do you know?

Ta Dah

I get to match my 1st and I’m absolutely thrilled when he decided to pick up the tab on this one. Now, I just need a ‘together’ picture!

Hello, My Name Is….

I am a manicure addict. Ok, does that term even exists? Hmm.. getting my nails done seem to work as some form of therapy. I actually do feel good to have pretty nails.

Ok, I had no time for a pedicure today. Boo! Otherwise, I would have definitely gotten the ‘full works’.

The nails for the week;

Getting All ‘Emo-ed’

Attended a lovely wedding over the weekend, a good friend of the hubs!

As the couple was giving the traditional wedding speech, it brought tears to my eyes… especially when it was the bride’s turn… I usually do not get all teary eyed during weddings but what she said tugged my heartstrings. In her speech, she thanked her sister for being there both in good and bad times, giving her advice although the truth always hurts! Yet, she will get herself into a mess and keep hearing the brutal truth!

I’m wondering if it has to do with age, as I seem to get more emotional these days. Whether its good or bad things, I feel like I’m able to relate almost instantly and get all teary.

As I look forward to the future, I’m just wondering what will my sister say about me, on her wedding day speech? But whatever she says, I know it will definitely bring tears and it will be a good one.

The Bag At The Window

The Lanvin Quilt Amalia Bucket Bag definitely caught my eye last evening and I love how it has a hidden zip at the bottom to ‘expand’ the bag especially when you have slightly more stuff to carry. The lambskin made bag makes it even more luscious but couple with the steep price, its off the ‘radar’ for now. Hmm… think I’ll just dream about it.
