My life, My memory, My dream

Finally, I've joined the 30s Club - officially, no turning back. This piece is necessary for those people who made my birthday extra amazing this year. Birthday celebrations started as early as 2 weeks before the actual date. Just 2 Sundays before birthday came, I was blessed to have my Powerpuff w me (just like the usual years before), and we had a nice brunchie w long chats.


Thank you Powerpuffs :)
Then, on the Friday right before birthday, I had a small but warm-hearted celebration w my family. These people who gave me life, and everything in life - I thank God to have them, and forever be grateful that I'm the youngest in the family (not anymore after baby Ethan is born). Thank you for showering me w the best, and gave me the most amazing moments and always be there for me no matter how hard I fall. Thank you for all the support and encouragement, and being my strength pillars. W all my heart, I wished upon the candle on my cake - that we will forever be healthy and happy as we are now. We don't get to choose our family, but if there's afterlife I would wanna be apart of this family all over again, and again, and again.


My birthday bundle!
On the actual day, I have a date w dear. And as all the years before, she never missed my birthdays. Even when she was away to study, there were calls and birthday cards from afar. And this year makes no exception. Dear said she will be the chauffeur for the day, all I have to do is to get dressed and wait for her to come pick us for dinner. As we reached the cafe, and I pushed open the glass door - there I was surprised by these lovely bunch of girls. They had been here since secondary school days, and we had shared so much and so many stories to tell. We were always together during life events, and supported each other at difficult times. Thank you my fair ladies, my happy pills for celebrating this special moment w me as I join you all last in this 30s club. We didn't grow older, we grow wiser :)



My fairladies, #myhappypills
Special thanks to this girl next to me, not only on this particular day but throughout my whole life till' now - braving me through life's ups and downs, picking me up when I hit the ground, slapping me with harsh truth when she needs to, putting sense into me, and plainly just be there for me no matter when I needed her or not. Thank you for being a sister from another mother, showing me kindness and pampering me all the time. Your surprise is yet another success - the blue Magdalene cake and that bunch of sweet pink roses definitely filled my heart much. 30 is not gonna be the same without you. Here's to many more birthdays together! ♥️


Forever my Dearie

This is definitely one birthday to be remembered :)

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 to meet long-time friends. 

  
All ready to fly after sipping hot coffee

Orchard Road is beautifully lit up with bright Christmas trees, colourful lights, beautiful ornaments. We had good time taking pictures along the road, breathing in hot humid air. It was a warm night, with alot of smiles and laughter.

The warmest season is here soon. Even warmer with friends around.

Hello, Christmas. I can't wait =)

Was glad to have visited Universal Studio, meeting some of my childhood cartoon characters. It has been some time since I had an adrenaline rush during roller coaster rides. My age is catching up I can see. Never hesitated when I went up for the Spaceshot ride at Genting Highlands when I was young, yet can't help feeling nervous before the exciting rides at USS. Found my youth when I got down from the rides - seems like my bravery is still there. 


The Elmo team had fun at USS

We said to be each others' companions until the right prince comes along  || If  only fairytale  comes true, if only happily ever after do exists

Thanks to our newly recruited partner in crime - we had a place to stay (even took up his bed and used his lappie), had someone to bring us around, to help us carry stuff, provided us wifi hotspot which drained out his iphone battery so ever quickly, be a photographer, and a great playmate who made us laughed real hard. I'll host you properly when it's your turn to come visit, this I promise you. =)

.... 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, we are able to go without trouble, without having the need to sneak and drive out like rebellious teenagers (our age don't suit though) :/

My partner in crime
Came back home early morning, with tired bodies from all the dancing (in heels). Woke up 4 hours later, with sleepy faces and aching legs -- we had an important date to go. It's the reunion of the besties after 2 years. Caryn and Bin had been our long time best friends, we used to go for movies, shopping, brunches, dinners together until one day we stopped altogether cause' everyone's too busy to meet up. That's an excuse, of course. We just didn't put in enough effort I guess >.<
I thought the meet-up would be awkward, or prolly we won't have much to say, but time is not a distance afterall. Conversation just flowed once we meet. It's like gossip girls again :)

After 2 years -- we changed I think, not alot but we did

p/s: Last day to see you before you going back to hometown. Wonder when will we meet again. Take care, bie.

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 better if you were there with me. :(


Superhero #2
A movie date with a long time friend. Known him for 8 years, and it's our first movie together. Due to my work until late night, we had to watch the midnight show. While waiting for the show to start, we sat and chilled over caramel frapp and coffee. I think I like caramel coffee now. :) We talked about everything during that 2 hours wait. From school to friends to work to relationships to life. We laughed and teased each other. Your reminded me of high school days, where we sat together in the lab, the days when we went to Genting, the time that you slept beside me and used your hand as a pillow for my head. I almost forgot it all until you asked "What your mum would have said if you told her you shared the sleeping place with other guys at Genting?" And I answered, "She didnt knew, and will never know" :p  

Movie was not too bad, with new Peter Parker and Gwen Stacy. But, I still prefer "The Dark Knight Rises" though.

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 up looking a lil' like me =)

I couldn't really think of places to bring them nor any activities that I could do with them. As much as I hate to admit, generation gap does exist :/  I thought of you the moment the children asked for a game of bowling. I seriously can't play bowling! Also, I didn't get to meet you when I was sick, and it's the last day you here before going back to your hometown. I felt the need to meet you before you leaves, and I certainly can't leave the children at home. The whole situation left me with no choice, but to go out all together. I was kinda glad we did that cause' I had you to play arcade games and bowling with them. I lost all my energy from the sickness. 

Thank you for being there, when I'm too sick to entertain the kids 
A day before the children leave, we woke up early to get tickets to the Petronas Twin Towers Skybridge. I knew there are a lot of people queuing for tickets daily, but I never expected such huge crowd, however we are the only local "tourists". I do feel like a tourist today -- went up the skybridge, snapping photos, getting maps and looking at directories, taking public transportation (I've never get on a lrt for years). 

Curious on how much they charge tourists for the Skybridge tour? (It used to be free)
For Malaysians - RM25 (adult), RM12 (kids below age 12)
For foreigners - RM80

Few snapshots at the skybridge
Then we went for Madagascar 3. Perfect movie to watch with the kids. We had good laughs during the Afro Circus Polkadot song. That few lines stuck in my mind for the rest of the day. Lol! 

Good stress reliever :)

Dropped by for a cute drink + snapping photos

Bedtime for the kids

After 24 days, 576 hours, 34,560 minutes, and 2,073, 600 seconds... I am finally free from exams! I've been waiting and dreading for this day to come ever since study break started. I wished I could have skipped the whole 2 weeks of exam and slept those weeks away, but I still went through the exams. No matter how the outcome is, I want to temporarily shut off my thoughts about exams - at least for this coming 2 weeks. 

During exam days, I couldn't sleep for nights. Had an insomnia attacked and left me with puffy eyes + dark eye circles. I swore that I will replenish all the sleep I've missed, and yet... when exams finally ended... I was too excited to sleep, and can't wait to celebrate! And so... immediately after the last paper on Wednesday, my planning schedule is full of outings until the week ends. =)


Wednesday: The night when I'm done with exams - drinking session at our private hangout place

Thursday: My date of the day =)

Our sweet indulgence 

Thanks love for the souvenirs all the way from Hong Kong & Macau =))


Friday: The only photo we managed to snap, and yet still I needa steal from my dear's fb >.<

These are not enough. More outings to come! 


p/s: There is something still missing...

Hi there! This is a personal space where I pour all my thoughts and mood posts into words. A place of serenity during sleepless midnights, and where I return to look at how far I've come and what had life gave me.
