The bed at home somehow feels so much more comfortable.
Happy to be home.
Happy to be with my family.
Happy he'll be here soon.
Happy that it's gonna be a good start to the year.
So many movies wanna watch...!

Thoughts
I love how sometimes authors speak the words to your heart...
Excerpt from Eclipse ( Twilight Book 3)
The word boyfriend had me chewing on the inside of my cheek with a familiar tension while I stirred. It wasn't the right word, not at all. I needed something more expressive of eternal commitment....But words like destiny and fate sounded hokey when you used them in casual conversation....
:P hmmm....

YOhh..
I've been so emotional lately.And cannot sleep even though its so late..
But like Yin said... just wanna live life to the fullest and enjoy every moment of it! Yeahh!
Thoughts jumbled in a massive web right now.My mind's at unrest. Very emotionally driven decisions...I've made recently. WHY? Have always been this rational, mature person...HMM...Priorities..priorities..
Ohya....HUGE fan of books. Managed to read twilight the past week. Poor sleepy lg had to endure the movie with me. What can I say.. HUGE DISAPPOINTMENT! Robert Pattison is just so not what I'd expected of Edward. Bella's rather pretty though. The emotions that should have been the emphasis of the movie, as in the book...so not there. I don't know, perhaps I have a rather flashy imagination, dramatizing everything.Sigh.Money No Enough 2 was much better, squeezing a few tears here and there from yours truly.
Next, have had really ODD experiences with cabbies in Sg. Who would have thought right.
Me: (Address of my current residence), please
Cabdriver: Girl, you dont sound like you are Singaporean. Are you Malaysian?
Me: Er,, ya.
Cabdriver: You speak very good English ya, so thought of settling down here?
Me: Nah, I dont think so.My bf is in KL.
Cabdriver: Aiyo, Malaysia good ? Not good lar.... Singapore better. So you staying alone here?
Me: Nopes with landlady.
Cabdriver: I see. But as in renting alone right?
Me: Yup.
Cabdriver:I stay alone too.
Me:??????
Cabdriver: you are working nearby?
Me: Yup.
Cabdriver: Oh, I'm staying in ( somewhere in Sg). Was thinking you can stay with me.
Me:?????
Cabdriver: So will you be going back for CNY?
Me: Yup. Trying to get tics.
Cabdriver: Noneed to go back lar..Can stay with me..
Me:??????????
I don't know. Maybe it's something I did, project, said wrong. This is definitely not the first time. Not that I was trying to attract unnecessary attention.Looking my dawdiest, covered in baggy overalls and jackets, looking like a lost tourist all the time.I think work stress in the Lion city is eating into the ppls mental health.
Some thoughts:
Money is really NOT everything.
Live is about taking chances.
Success is not measured by material wealth, no. of luxury cars, fancy titles, tailored suits, branded bags......
No regrets.
Live and love every moment as it passes.
Cherish the people who care and love you.
Appreciate the people who have trusted you and granted you chances.
A smile brings you a million miles.
:D Counting down the days..........

The year that was
Read through the few posts I'd put up for the past year. Saw myself through the eyes of an outsider. And considered putting behind this collection of memories that I'd build up for the past few years.
2008. For the rest of the world.
A special year for many.
Auspicious date to tie the knot.
New careers for young adults like myself.
Renewed friendships.
Rise of terrorism.
A year of earth shattering natural disasters.
The Great Depression?
For me, it was 365 chapters of a great epic.Everyday served to be a eye-popping adventure, with steep right angled learning curves.
2008. For mini me.
1. The dawn of many a beautiful friendships.
Made many great friends, especially my buddies at work. Us BFFs got together finally geographically.Met up with many of the Georgians...even SKBLians.....Feels so great that we are now all grown up now.How IS everyone?
2. Giant steps to my tiny career
The first year's a honeymoon. Getting thrown into the job now.Being forced to learn so quick..I'm starting to think I can move mountains. Of course, I am but a miniscule creature in the entire organization. I've gotta stay tough... and try even harder!Thank you to all the ppl who have given me this opportunity!!
3.Forgotten diet schemes, and growing tummies and gastronomical affairs.
Working late and slugging the entire weekend sometimes makes one feel the need for a scrumptious reward.That's what keeps me going. Then of course the trips back to Pg, Kl and then when Mr D drops by to visit in Sg. Happiness often leads to makan-ing. Havent ate so much for ages.Have gotta do something about it quick ( mental note to include in new year resolution)
4.A sudden conscience for thrift
With the conversion rate, with the added benefits, I SHOULD have a tad bit more moo-lah to spend and launch into a crazy shopping spree...being in a shopaholic haven. Surprise.. Surprise. Actually am starting to get bored with the streets of Orchard. Walk by without even much of a glance at the big SALE sign in VIVO.
5.Back to my bookworm days
Long hours in the MRT. Books are my answer to commuting. As such an entire shelf of novels ( books are somewhat cheaper here) and self help books.Of course not to forget my monthly collection of Fashion mags, Health mags, Homestyle mags and also... ahem..stylewedding.com. :d
6. In line to receive loyal customer of the year from budget airlines.
A large chunk of what earned each month goes into a fund to be donated to either AirAsia, Jetstar, TigerAir and even MAS. Sigh... if only i could teleport.
7. the ONE.
Controversial. But the best decision I have made ever.I may be wrong, but it never felt so right.Affecting other ppl around was not intentional.Believe in the feeling. Have trusted my instincts all my life. And to date, have never regretted once. :)
So true?

A great great year all in all.
and I spy into my magic ball.
2009 will be a greater one. With much much more to rejoice.
So a very HAPPY NEW YEAR TO EVERYONE!
