Happy!

I'm finally done with ALL my assignments! Yippie!! Damn glad that they're all over. No more deadlines for the time being. Gotta concentrate on studying for my exams now though. I must not get too carried away! Hehe.

The Deepavali long weekend was very well spent indeed. So much so that I extended my holiday to Tuesday, when I was supposed to be attending classes. Well, I thought I needed the additional break anyway. What a lousy excuse for my laziness. The truth is, the motivation to go to work just diminish away when your partner is still asleep because he don't have to work. Plus, I wouldn't turn away the chance of spending extra time with the man. :P

Since last week, I've been thinking of my Halloween costume. I wanna be reaaally creative. Let's hope I succeed. I don't have a reputation of being artistic and creative, you know.



Savouring every moment.

All Grown Up?

I received the 2nd wedding invitation for this year. Suddenly, people around me are either engaged or married. In NIE, you can spot sparkling diamonds on the fourth fingers easily; some are really huge while others are normal-looking.

And before you get the wrong idea, this post is not about me wanting to get married (because I don't, yet). This post is about how we are all growing up too fast and too soon. In the blink of an eye, we are gonna transform from fun-loving babes to home-loving wives!

Even though the stuff that I do sometimes resemble a wife's duty but still...the label matters.

I still find 'crossing over' very scary. To me, it's a whole new world. Being a wife means a lot of things. You can't expect to live a life you've always did and be someone's wife. Your priority will shift. Your responsibility will increase.

Nonetheless, I recognise that it's part and parcel of life. We'll all reach there somehow. It's just a matter of time.



Being human.

Am I?

Demanding (adj)
1. requiring or claiming more than is generally felt by others to be due: a demanding teacher.
2. calling for intensive effort or attention; taxing: a demanding job.

Somehow, this word bothers me.

Questions
- Has it been tiring for you?
- Can you keep up for now and the future?
- Will you resent?
- What if it gets too tiring?



So how?

A Pleasant Day

I spent 6 hours with 2 of my favourite people and it's just so nice. I feel a sense of accomplishment this weekend too as I managed to complete 1 assignment. :D

I shall not describe the details here because my laziness does not allow me to. Please read Frances's blog if you're interested. Fran, you're gonna blog about today, right?

Anyway, I've decided to post some pics! Not in any order, not for any purpose. Just because, seeing them makes me happy. :) My dears out there, don't get jealous. I have not featured your photos too because I'm trying to protect your identity. LOL

Contentment is bliss.

I wonder...

Many things have come to my mind recently. Some important, some not. Some crucial to my future, some redundant.

You.
I have not spoken to you for 2 days. Not even a proper sms. I suppose your schedule there does not allow you the time. I try to understand and not think too much. But the train of thoughts just keeps going.

You.
It's been weeks. I realised, again, how stupid I was. I gave a lot but only expected the minimal return. Yet, I'm disappointed, once again. Am I really so dispensable in your lives? Had I been only an entertaining clown of no value? Or maybe, more time is needed.

You.
I'm really glad that you ladies came into my life. We're not only colleagues (ex-colleagues) that's one another's pillar during work, the firm bond which has formed is also undeniable. I know I can depend on you girls anytime. :)

You.
You caught my eye.


Am I asking for too much?

Answer

If I told you that I grew up that little bit more within a day, would you believe?

I know what's been bothering me. It's a little too complex to put it to words. Or maybe, I'm just not ready to tell you people. Maybe I won't at all. :P



Advancing towards.

Fall For You

'Tonight will be the night that I will fall for you over again don't make me change my mind....' just keeps repeating in my head while I'm trying to do my literature review. Sadly.

Smile

Physically, there is something not quite right. Once I'm done with all the assignments, I'm going for a check up.

Emotionally, there is something not quite right too. I can't pinpoint what is it exactly but the effect is rather clear.



I am such an idiot.

Weekend

I almost forgot how it feels like to be out the whole night and sleeping only the minimum 5 hours (7am - 12 noon), resulting in me feeling sleepy-but-can't-sleep for the day.

I'm currently reliving it.

Anyway, last night was nice. It's always nice to observe the funny people in the clubs. It's always nice to see the man enjoying himself. It's nice to know that my boyfriend's friends hang out with Ronald Susilo. I have something to say about that guy but being moral, I shall not broadcast it to the whole world. ask me personally

I'm thinking of what to do now. Choices:
1) Work
2) Wake the sleeping beast up and risk getting screwed
3) Lie down on the bed, toss around and risk waking the sleeping beast up and in turn risk getting screwed

:(

It's Friday

Yea, it's Friday AGAIN. Time is flying by too fast.

Well, my assignments are finally clearing up. I'm left with 3 or 4 more deadlines for the remaining of October. Somehow, I'm getting lazy. Or maybe, I'm just really tired of working so hard. I'm slowing down and starting to procrastinate.

I'm happy today. There's a high possibility that I'm in good mood because of something someone from school said. It's been real long since anyone has praised my physical attributes. And doesn't it just make you float! Glee. :D

I'm goin St. James in a few hours time. Somehow excited. You know, the whole dressing up thing and feeling good when you know you look good? I just hope that the music doesn't turn out too sucky, knowing that it's gonna be HOUSE. Eeew.

And while I was typing that paragraph, a hideous picture of myself flashed across my mind. I was wearing specs and a napkin-looking white top, posing with KS. I remembered that I had class that day and met up with Phoebe and KS to shop. Then, we headed to Zouk. I couldn't be bothered to go home and dress up first as clubbing was such a frequent event to me back then. And Phoebe, I wouldn't remember this incident so clearly if it wasn't for you. You just have to keep reminding me of how u-g-l-y I looked. EVIL. :P

The boyfriend. Getting more and more indispensable each day.



Within reach.

Hungry

I'm sitting in one of the tutorial rooms, after a boring tutorial, waiting for my group mate to finish another of her group discussion so that she can record the podcast with me. My stomach is growling like hell and I can feel the gastric juices churning against the wall. But what to do? Gotta wait.

As usual, I think too much and weird ideas crept into my mind. That was yesterday. I guess being my boyfriend is really not easy. You gotta figure me out when I don't even know what I want at times.

Okay, my stomach just gave a super loud growl.



The connotation of weekend seemed to have been lost.
