Expired. The person told me that my car wash member card needs renewal. So, it has been a year. Last year, the day when we were supposed to have a simple study date spoiled by a car accident and ended up in the police station. The day you stood with me under the drizzle and argued with the man who deliberately knocked into my car, and held my hand tightly in the police station cause'...

She who keeps me busy these days!

Wednesday, December 19, 2012 / BY MINA LEONG
Say hello to GUCCI! Isn't she a cutie? She seems to be accepting this new place as home and starts to response when I call her Gucci (a new name we gave her). Found this poor little thing on one of the weekends at grandma's place. It was a night with rain and lighting, and there she was wet and hungry hiding under the car. Couldn't leave her alone, so gave her food and bathed...

One of those moody nights again, and your words kept appearing.  "I'll always be here for you", you said.  "Don't worry, I'm always here de", you told me.  "Sayang.. I told you I'll always be here for you", you emphasized. "Seriously dear... It's ok de.. I'm here", you assured me for the Nth time. Because of the many times you told me so, I began to rely you more and more when I'm upset, unhappy...

Movie Week

Thursday, December 06, 2012 / BY MINA LEONG
Life is really getting a bit leisure, couldn't remember the last time I've watched so many movies. Was on a movie marathon it seems, been watching 3 movies in 3 days consecutively.  Had a dinner and movie date with dear on Monday night. Our original plan to watch "Pitch Perfect" was changed to "Rise of the Guardians" due to inappropriate timing. But, I'm glad we did cause' I loved it. It reminds me of "Polar...

Travel to the South

Thursday, November 29, 2012 / BY MINA LEONG
20/11/12 - 24/11/12 It was a beautiful day to fly. Only Singapore I know, but we got all excited cause' it was our first time traveling together out of the country, boarding a plane at the international airport. We felt high-class :p We didn't really plan out an itinerary on where to go, or a schedule on what to do. What we wanted was just a spontaneous getaway, to walk around taking plenty of pictures, and...

Time flies. One year has gone. I've watched Breaking Dawn part 2. Again, like last year I've missed the front part cause' I was late to the cinema. After one whole year, I finally went and search for part 1 and watched what we've missed. The most romantic part, the wedding, the vow. "Super late for movie laa.. Jam jam jam" "Hahahaha.. Its really ok.. Movie not that important to me.. Its spending time with...

Back to hometown, [18/11/12]

Tuesday, November 27, 2012 / BY MINA LEONG
well not mine but my dad's. Other than my birthplace (KL), Selangor, Seremban - I guess this is where I've mostly been to. Segamat, Johor a small town but packed with friendly and kind people. I've always wanted to know more about this place, to be close with the relatives because this is where my daddy grew up. It's a place he lived with grandpa and grandma, along with his siblings. A place where he...

I don't wanna take up all ur time"...

I wonder why I'm doing this. To read and recap all conversation between us.  Prolly' cause' Christmas is near, prolly' cause' we don't talk anymore, or prolly' cause' I'm slowly forgetting you and I dislike that.  By the time I reach an end of our conversation, maybe that's the time I'll be ready to put all these memories behind and then slowly forget them bit by bit. Just not now, yet.  "Tell me, what will...

Nostalgic

Tuesday, November 06, 2012 / BY MINA LEONG
It's the moment when memories sink in, the moment when I start missing things and people from the past, the moment when I wish I can travel back in time, to experience that same days, that same place, that same person, that same warmth, and to see the same smile. . . . . It's also the same moment which vanished completely the next morning I wake up. It's the moment when memories sink in,...

No, this is not you...

Sunday, October 28, 2012 / BY MINA LEONG
... tell me that and I might believe in you, since I was blinded by you before (not too long ago). Heard a lil' too many bad things bout' you recently, mixed feelings developed. A part of me which had let go felt so relieved to know that you are not someone worth to be upset at, another part of me couldn't really believe what I've heard cause' this is not the you I knew....

Heart feels sour,

Tuesday, October 16, 2012 / BY MINA LEONG
cause' friends are finally leaving to different pathways. The letter finally came after months of waiting. It's weird that I still feel so heavy-hearted to see them leave when we all had been anticipating the letter. Couldn't believe that all of them have to go just like that once the letter arrived. We managed to have a gathering on the last weekend before they need to report themselves at respective states. All are scattered to...

Stronger,

Tuesday, October 09, 2012 / BY MINA LEONG
yes I am. Cause' so many had happened for the last 2 weeks. Every minute, every second of the days were occupied with different things to do. There were ups and downs, but was never too happy nor too sad. I knew I had to control my emotions, not to let my emotions control me. Wedding, funerals, family drama, friendships -- all these made me learnt that I only live once. Prolly' all other little...

Not so much of sorrows,

Friday, September 28, 2012 / BY MINA LEONG
cause' I've stopped counting the days... No longer thinking how is life without you will be, because there is so much more important things to do. Attended the second wake in a month's time reminds me once again, how fragile life is. If we do not know how to appreciate each other's presence then staying away like now is the best option. Just a random message occasionally is enough for both of us to know...

Remembering

Tuesday, September 18, 2012 / BY MINA LEONG
Couldn't put everything in words, into a post for everything that occurred for the past one year. September last year onwards, I never deleted any of your whatsapp messages, phone texts, facebook messages, emails, and every little memory that we had together. Couldn't count how many messages we have sent - prolly' few hundred thousands of them. These few nights I've been reading back our conversations, trying to figure out how did our friendship developed....

Messy thoughts

Monday, September 10, 2012 / BY MINA LEONG
"Mina... Even when everyone doesn't trust me, u must trust me.. K?" "Everyone else can think I'm stupid, immature or a bad person.. Only u cannot." "Dear... I am really sorry if I made u angry or upset.. I tend to do that a lot..." "I really like you also... But I know one day, sooner or later I'll make you unhappy. I'm afraid of losing you. I'm scared of losing you by making mistakes....

Three words,

Sunday, September 02, 2012 / BY MINA LEONG
and it was enough to pushed me away. "Sorry, personal matters..." I couldn't remember the last time you didn't wanna tell me about your personal matters because we were always telling each other everything. You never attempt to hide your feelings in front of me. You scolded and cursed when you were angry, you drank when you were upset, you were vexed when your mood came crashed down, you told me when you missed me......

You left,

Tuesday, August 07, 2012 / BY MINA LEONG
just like that, without a word, without a trace. Early morning I was awaken by loads of incoming messages. People wrote condolences, expressed how sorry and sad they were to hear the death news of yours. I was still in a blurred state, trying to reload earlier messages to find out who died. At that moment, I never thought it is someone I know, or at least someone I'm close with. People do tag and...

Taste of Freedom...

.... for both dear and I. She finished her exam, my mum went for a short trip. So... It's time to partayyyy! Like always, dear is coming over my place for the weekend stay. Planned for a quiet night out along with pillow talks (maybe) but interrupted by a friend's lure to club. According to our agreement, all my club visits should be accompanied by you, hence I asked for your company. Because of you,...

Superheroes

Thursday, July 26, 2012 / BY MINA LEONG
are not real. They don't exist. However, we just love those comics as kids, and now love those movies when we've grown up, don't we?  Superhero #1 Christian Bale is still my favorite Batman character after being done by so many other actors. Like this movie even more when Anna Hathaway appears as the cool Catwoman. The villain's character -- Bane, was well made. Like almost everything about this movie, and it would have been...

You Gotta Smile When,

Thursday, July 26, 2012 / BY MINA LEONG
your bestie tries to cheer you up, but pretending that she's not using any effort... and yes, you are right. Someone else can make me upset, but it's just not you. Cause' you always know the way to lift up the curve on my lips even in my most upset days.  ...

Words,

Tuesday, July 24, 2012 / BY MINA LEONG
do hurt sometimes. In the midst of our argument, you told me that word is a powerful tool. It can ruins alot of perspectives if used wrongly. You are right -- cause' when I saw those words you typed,  my heart sank. The impact you had on me lost at the moment. What's done has been done. History class ended, but the lesson stayed. So, says who that words do not hurt like sticks and...

Today's The Day

Sunday, July 15, 2012 / BY MINA LEONG
Finally, the day has arrived. The day when all hard work is paid off. The day which marked the end of study life. The day when you all look smart in your graduation robes and mortarboards. The day you all receive your scroll accompanied with proud parents.  The convocation day which I missed. But, I am so ever proud of you all my loved ones :) University life wouldn't be the same without you guys....

Happy Birthday

Sunday, July 15, 2012 / BY MINA LEONG
I wanted to be there on your birthday, like how you did on mine. It's not easy to see you nowadays, and even more harder to be alone with you. I insisted to own your time on Saturday night, stubbornly wanted a meet up although I know you are tired. Dinner was simple and relaxing, quiet without the interference of others, only us chatting and laughing occasionally.  It was only 11.30pm when you almost reached...

Finallyyyy... I've got some photos to update my trip. It's supposed to be our their graduation trip, although it's not full attendance of Step G. but the trip was a fun one. No regrets going again after a year. This time I've been to a few more places that I have yet to explore during my first time there -- Chalong Temple, Ko Khai (Kho Pi Pi Island), Phang Nga Bay (James Bond Island).  Left:...

Our Agreement

Sunday, June 24, 2012 / BY MINA LEONG
Terms and Conditions: Section 5.3 Paragraph 2: Clubs-visits must be accompanied by 'you'. From the 'you-me' agreement. It might be only me who remembers this, hence I am trying to adhere to this as much as possible - although I know there's no need for it. You'd probably think I'm silly but a promise is a promise. I wouldn't wanna break it until the day when I couldn't keep it anymore. Just don't like it...

That Sour Feeling

Monday, June 18, 2012 / BY MINA LEONG
Yes. It's the same feeling I felt when I knew I failed and couldn't graduate in time. Seeing happy faces around me, excited for their convocation, signing papers of retreating university, paying for their robes and mortar boards -- I can't help but to feel that slight tinge of sadness deep down in my heart. However, I am happy for you all, I really am. Really really am.  ...

3 Days of Work

Saturday, June 16, 2012 / BY MINA LEONG
So far as I recall, dear and I have never worked together before -- despite us knowing for 12 years already. We've always had different part time jobs ever since high school. Hence, these 3 days of free-lance work is a new experience for us.  Working for an exhibition (maybe not all, only our boss) requires no skills. All we need to do was stand and smile, and be able to talk a few lines....

One Week Stay

Thursday, June 07, 2012 / BY MINA LEONG
It's amazing how time flies. I could still remember the small cheeky faces of my niece and nephew, and now they have grown up so much -- even capable to come over my place to spend their one-week holiday. Unfortunately, I didn't turn out to be a good host as I was sick on the day they arrived! However, I did made it up for them after 3 days in bed. So, she did grew...

After So Long...

Thursday, June 07, 2012 / BY MINA LEONG
... I am here to write again. I've waited photos from friends to update a post on my Phuket trip, but sadly I still didn't get em' till' now. So, I've decided to update on that again when i finally get hold of the photos.  A lot had happened in the past 3 weeks. Exam results were finally out during my vacation in Phuket. Couldn't really believe my eyes when darling sent me an image...

Our Last Date

Tuesday, June 05, 2012 / BY MINA LEONG
Yes. It's the last, I know. Cause' you and I both knew that you won't stay forever. I wanted you to remember the moment when our hands touched, the way we held them, the gentle strokes I left on your hand. And so, I gathered all the courage I had and said "I want you to remember the feeling of us holding hands, and bury it deep down in your heart forever" before I took...
