Im finally writing again. heh (: was either too busy or emo to write. Figured i didnt like writing about my bad days. Anyhowwws, everything's back in place and settled alrdy. Many many things/events happened during the past 3 weeks..

Dreadful school started, joel's birthday celebration, another celebration with joelfxwphia & partners, sailing trainings back on ball, great eastern 10k with andrea and the most recent sailor's halloween party. Its time to get started on projects. hopefully my precious IBM T60 doesnt put me down. sigh, its been giving me so much problems, cant seem to get it started, the other time, it took me 40 mins before i could un-hang the system. lol. forced shut downs really hurt :(

Life is pretty good now, except for some thoughts that keeps running occasionally....

Let the pictures speak for itself

Joel's birthday with me ; 16 October
could have been better, timings were wayyy off. haha. so a few programs initially planned were called off :(




Joelfxwphia & Partners ; 18 October 2008
Sanji drove us all around, picked all of us up, headed to Sentosa Cove for our little picnic. Astons at night for dinner :D

It's a twist in my life right now. Well, i have no idea what's happening to my r/s with j. Met Dee for dinner at Marina, had a long talk over dinner at Hans. Was a good time spent catching up. Reminsced times when i wasnt attached yet, but it was the good old funny friendship times, the nice feeling when a girl is being chased. Sat there, recalling those times 2- 3 yrs back. Im so different now, compared to those years back. I guesws ive grown up. But, i wanna be like how i was before. Anyhows.. Dee, thanks for being one of my gd friends who'll listen to my problems and caring so much for me when im upset.. (:
Well, on the train ride back, j called and sanji drove us to hollandv for frolick. But i dont knw why, but things are just different btwn j & i. We're prolly facing the issue which has been going on since the very first day we got tog. it prolly just got more prevailant these past 2 mths. Its a friend-boyf thing. Sigh, i dont knw. maybe this problem is causing you to react differently towards me, & you prolly feel its unfair/ uncomfortable, till you feel so numb. Well, maybe its time we take some time apart.. give ourselves some time, some space alone to think abt us. we might get something outta it. or we may have different thoughts abt this r/s. maybe it will be gd, placing our priorities right. Our r/s with God, our time spent w our friends & family. i hope you do knw exactly how you really feel. sometimes, i'll feel like.. maybe itll be good if i go overseas to study.. a test of time & our love. im sad, but we've gotta face all these someday. Smile to a new day.

haha, my sis turned on the radio and its class 95 love songs. ironic, just heard this over the radio.
"Love is being the best person you can be to the one you love." .......can you? can i? can everyone in love do so?

Today, was kinda fulfilling. Got woken up by a call from our staff advisor, changing our com meeting day. /: then i got online to settle Sailing admin stuff and training details, emailing here and there. But im glad, trngs are firmed up and the juniors can start sailing! Good for 'em (:

Then i made my trip down to Party City, HV. Helped out Jacq, Aunty Esther & Angeline with stock. Did some pricing, packing.. haha, got me thinking how shy i was when i served my very first customer 2 yrs back in the shop. I dont mind working there again, funnn, no stress, good company! Hee, yeah so i was over at the shop for bout 7 hours.. bought a lil smiley balloon for gene to spur her on for her PSLE. haha could see she was happy. YAY! Yup, then i drove to Dover with my DAD to pick granny. Whoa, it was really an experience.... i think its better when i drive alone, no stress at all. My dad's the scariest. Kept looking at the speedometre, saying i must drive at 60km/h. and kinda scolded me when i drove at 80km/h. Luckily, he didnt sit in when i drove the other times, really gotta slow down and kick the habit. BAD.

Anyhows, relationship's so far so good :) hope itll stay like that. I was thinking the other day, how did i fall in love with you, the way you joked and all reminded me of how we used to be. But when bad times come by, everything's different. And ill start thinking, i used to always feel.. why do couples even quarrel? Its never a nice thing. But, i still wanna live what i believed in initally, and even now. Be happy, try putting yourself in his/her shoes, you'll understand and things will eventually be better. :D
