PROUD of myself : )

It can never feel as good, as feeling good about yourself. Yes, INDEED.
I did many things today, and I was productive. I'm really happy.

I didn't sleep well last night,as I was afriad of oversleeping for the briefing at MOE this morning. So, the day saw me up bright and early, and I made my way to MOE. It is damn nice to have company too, coz Christine Chan, my former b&w classmate, has been enrolled into NIE with meas well. Nothing beats familiarity to discomfort. And it is sure a relief that I've got Chris with me. I've always appreciated her company. Not expectant, Not demanding, but always there, always ready to explode with her cool ideas and humourous jokes. Well, think about it, a whole semester with her in b&w, and I thoroughly enjoyed myself. She helped me out alot in that class too. So I appreciated her even more. * a little more on her later*

Met Chris outside the poduim block, and we "cheonged" in together! Like WARRIORS! *hahaha, we kid*. The briefing was rather overwhelming, as we had tons of forms to fill, and only one pair of ears to absorb each and every detail. it was the morning first of all, and Christine and Mel put together, was just a chaotic explosion of "chemicals". R ITe. Anyway...they were very organised, and soon after the briefing, they helped each of the 100+ of us with our documents' submission etc. I have to clear my MEDICAL exmination and PS card too on one of the slotted dates I've chosen. MOE has many many rules...but none so terrible unless u can't handle it. Just pray for me and Chris ok?

Once we were done at MOE, we headed to our much missed clementi area for lunch and walk, window shop around clementi central. Nothing beats familiarity, an old friend, old haunts, and a nice meal over shaker fries. hahaha. Mac has new shaker fries. they are DELICIOUS! (nick go try them). Mac also has new cool sauces mainly for the nuggets, but u may request for them. They are pretty interesting mixes. Anyway, first stop, MACS. Two meals, student price*LOL*shaker fries and requested TONS OF SAUCES. Hahaaa, u already know what's to happen to Mel's tummy after tht yea? HAHAHA.

We did some walking thereafter, and i nearly bought dear a lovely plain black long sleeve v-neck sweater. But with 50 bcuks left, what could i get? I just wanted to get him smth for our anniv. *HAPPY 11 MTHS DEAR*
So, I nearly got it, coz it looked so nice for dear. : ) But Chris advised against it, saying the material wasn't great. OKIE. We also didn't buy 5 dollar t-shirts,w hich was what we intended to do. Besides the material for those? YA, they really sucked.

After much walking, we came across a store. I honestly wasn't inetnding to spend, BUT GUESS WAD? I bought smth for dear and myself!!! *drumrolls* SLIPPERS! "Z" brand! WOW, COMFY LEHHH...... hehheh.Chris said he will like it. I tot so too. And no uncle, no other colour other than black please, thanks. I got a nice beach coloured sole and pink straps. heh.

Next, coffee shop stop.!! HOHO. This is where we did A WHOLE lot of catching up on the training courses/instrustor courses that Chris has been taking. See, she is VERY into sports, and she's specialising in P.E for NIE. yea...She also does SUPERB shoots for photography , writes her own stories, and shoots her own style. She's talented, hidden behind her TUUT TUUT looks and specs. Don't be deceived! Behind those specs, is a rather cute girl actually. What matters is not yr looks, but honestly, your heart.

She needed to head back to schl, and I needed to head to town, so we ended our over-due "catch" up session and made our way to our respective destinations. I headed to PS and walked a bit. Got hungry, sat down, finished reading my LIME MAG, TEENS MAG, and was extremely contented that i have FINALLY achieved that. My next aim is to read mags of this sort, so at least i have an interest to read them, and I improve plus gain current knowledge on the latest buys, fashion, CD'S MOST IMPORTANTLY, and foreign artists. I love LIME AND TEENS. They give very good stuff inside. Good reviews on everything that interests the youngsters. CDs, clothes, fashion, movies, and other more personal issues. They touch on everything. I like it. Music maxout too, made this effort, at making their mag interesting and refreshing to the reader. I appluad these monthly mags for always being able to do that. I have long given up on 8 days, coz there is simply NOTHING in there.

It is well worth my money each month, coz even if i buy three mags, and spend ten bucks, i read it for the whole month. Since I don't have time for books most of the time anyway, and esp looking at next yr's schedule.

I waited for dear to come, as we were suppose to head off to his band's jam prac for sat's gig. But poor dear just couldnt make it in time coz he bked out far too late. We decided to have some time to ourselves, and spent what i felt was one of the most enjoyable times I've had out with dear in a long time. Though we met at 745pm, and parted later at 10pm, it didn't seem too short though nof course not that long either. But, I was very happy. Dear was happy. We met, had dinner at our fav food court upstairs, looked at some basses as dear LOVES them, and I must say the bass he tested had excellent sound, equipped with an excellent amp, and of coz dear, who knows how to use both types of equipment well.: ) HEEE.

We headed home after that. Well, technically, I did and he bked in again, but i'm gonna see him tmr !! : ) I know I've lied to mum and dad twice this week already, but it all seems to work out nicely. They're happy I THINK, better not knwoing, and we don't fight, and i got to meet dear on mon, today, tmr and sat. This week was unexpected since i got work cancelled. I CAN'T tell them tht of coz. So tmr I have a chance to meet him since he's bking out tmr. It's been really tough on him. In, out, in out...poor dear.

I went back home with a happy heart, and i felt much better too. Tonight, I was busy replying loads of emails and coordinating many things that my choir is busy with now. I'm taking care of a 40 strong section, and that's quite a headache. Along with that, the cantors have been busy as well, so Ive been on a EMAIL/SMS frenzy lately. And jill reminds me to cut down...I TRY BABE..i try...: )Tonight, i replied e-mails pertaining to all these events :

baptism mass
ashley goh's wedding
cindy's wedding and the pracs
xmas caroling pracs
all my sops

and

i prob cant remember the rest. All i noe is im sleepy, and have had a fantastically fun filled, work filled, love filled day. It doesn't always happen AND I THANK GOD for such a day.

I love you too dear, good night world.

Christine said smth interesting about relationships today, and it's smth to think about: " Once someone has gone thru a relationship with another person, esp during the growing yrs, and both sides watch each other grow, it's hard, to find someone to fill that place again. Coz the feeling will never be the same."

gd nite
