Feel so blessed to have such sweet friends.
I think hor, cos I'm so aunty and all.. and not particularly gentle with pple (or my friends for tt matter), tt I don't quite expect them to be gentle with me.
However, reflecting on a conversation with WC last week, I realised how, over the past few mths, pple have been making a conscious effort to not tell me stuff they know/have seen wrt Shane. It's only after they hear abt Sherwin tt they do the "Oh, btw tt day har, I saw/heard...."
Which, given my generally impatient/rough/aunty personality, first elicited a "Aiya, I got so weak meh???" kinda reaction. But then I realised, they were just being sensitive to my feelings. And I really appreciate that. A lot. :)
Anyway the irony is tt I prob heard abt what was happening before most pple even knew abt it. And I wasn't surprised cos, first of all.. it is Shane. Having known him for so many years, 习惯就好 ya. Not that it's necessarily a gd or bad thing la. Just saying that I was already mentally prepared. And by the time I was ready to date (was going to say "again", but I actually realised it was kinda like for first bloody time in my life!) I had more or less closed the chapter and was packing up the emotional baggage.
So yeah, thanks guys, for being so gentle with me. 我也该学习对别人,对自己温柔一点 :)
Actually typed this post a few days ago, but never had the time to finish it. Had a lot of other things to say but I forgot liao. Oh well... have a gd week y'all!

In a good way of course :)Oh well, first things first, Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all!!! 2009 is prob the first year tt I didn't send out X'mas cards to anyone at all, but you guys were on my mind all the time. Just needed to conc on investing in my future ;p As u can see...i'm not v gd at multi-tasking. heh.
The past 3 weeks have been just wonderful... and it feels like we've been trying to drag out the days for as long as we can, before work begins in full force come 4th Jan. So here's a pic taken today by Gil tt I'm kinda "borrowing"..cos I haven't asked him yet..which shld explain what i've been up to/how i've been feeling/update some of u who still don't know :D

(一股真实的)男人味
Almost like a breath of fresh air. Never really felt this way before..and it's seriously making me giggly. Like... abit too giggly perhaps. hahaAs 小红 said to me the other day, try to rein in the grin on my face. And it hasn't been easy trying to suppress both the grins and giggles ok. :p The stupid amt of work tt keeps coming in has been useful though...
So yeah, there is something lah :) Been spending a lot more time in the central/northern part of S'pore these days. And (altho I still love the east) it's been nice, being introduced to new eating places, being sent home, being picked up from work! (ultimate 爽!) But most of all, being taken care of. Maybe also becos I've finally learnt (and actually still learning) to allow someone to do that.
The journey ahead seems exciting and yet scary at the same time. But I'm looking forward!

Lalala
Despite the fact tt we've been meeting up to practice for Sabrina's wedding, tonight's rehearsal was totally lousy. I am so majorly worried tt we'll sound like one of those cannot make it over-enthu 'friend/family performances'. The mic totally throws things off... plus I'm sure we'll be damn uncomfortable in all the wedding clothes. And there's no time already. Wedding is THIS SUNDAY!!! :S SianzzzzBut anyway. Why so late already I still haven't sleep leh? Lao niang is happeee... with various things. Haha. Not everyday see aunty happy right. Sthg must be up. Now is still nothing. But when becomes something already then say! =D
So anyway, among the many things tt I'm happy about, the first is the new Jamie Cullum album, The Pursuit!!! It totally rocks my socks la!! Esp his remake of Sondheim's Not While I'm Around. It's the sweetest song I've heard in a while sia. Dunno why but it really moved me a lot. It's the combi of the motif he uses, the melody and lyrics la. Very very beautiful. For those of you who haven't bothered to view my link on facebook.. here it is!!
Waiting for someone to sing to me leh. Heh. Can play and sing even better. But ok la, better not be so demanding. Beggars can't be choosers. Haha. Album is quite different from his previous ones. Seems there's a lot more pop-ish danc-ey tracks. Oh well, but I is likeee very much!
Then second, was thinking abt 500 days of Summer tt I watched a while ago.. and although the show is the abit depressing kind.. I really liked this happy scene. So super funny, and such a fantastic visual representation of the situation.
Ok off to sleep liao!!! 希望会有美梦哦!!

The whole of Oct just went by in a blur. Cos of this crazy proj I was working on. Worried about it like every other day la. And every week also got some meeting or other tt I needed to staff.
But it's all over now. And Nov is threatening to rush by too. (Oh whoops, it's almost over as well!) Guess it's mainly the practices for Sabrina's wedding... plus meeting up with pple tts taking up a lot of my time. Not tt I'm complaining lah. It's been great. Learning new stuff, meeting new pple, "old" pple (:p), having new experiences, and kinda keeping healthy (with badminton!).
Ktv on sat was fun... as usual lah. Dunno if I've said this before, but thank God for good friends. This entire period was just made bearable by all the wonderful pple around me. Tts prob why I didn't exactly feel the need to sing emo songs during ktv anymore. Recently remembered this song tt I really like. And it's dedicated to all my angels out there :)
p.s.: Perth photos are up. Haven't exactly finished uploading all but u can view some of them here first lah.
