Seven Years (Acoustic) x Saosin

A short update before I dive headfirst into a jam packed week ahead.
Not really forward to anything, except for Sunday, of course =D

So, basically, life has been pretty much the same, hanging out with my girls and (somewhat) helping Mr. Sea Soldier welcome the upcoming Lunar New Year (shopped, baked etc...).

*Five minutes later*
I pretty much sliced my thumb open a few minutes ago so I'm gonna cut this, initially wordy, entry extra, extra short.

Our version of Speak No Evil, See No Evil, Hear No Evil

Its admirable how D maintains her pose through the shots, even as J and I burst into peals of laughter or strike up conversations with one another...

We mustmustmust set foot in the lecture theater next week, yes?
No more excuses, at least for the next few weeks *winks*

And lastly, to the fortunate many who'll be collecting those Yusof Ishak filled red packets and basking in the presence of those familiar around you, the boy and I would like to wish you a very, very happy and prosperous Lunar New Year.

And, also...
=)

Tangled Up In You x Staind

I'm going to grow my hair really, really long...
Well, maybe just one palm past my shoulders and I'm hoping that the natural curls...

Will look like hers...

*prays*
I'm signing off here to end this totally pointless (but filled with hope) entry.

I Wanna Hold Your Hand x The Beatles

Girl : *searches frantically through purse* Got your keys? Earphones? Did you leave anything behind with me?

Boy : Yes, my heart...

And that was how you got me tripping and stumbling.

Ain't No Other Man x Christina Aguilera

Finally, the new semester commenced today, at 10 am.
Needless to say, much like my classmates, I wasn't ready to switch back to "student mode"... but I guess, I don't have much of a choice, do I?

I ended the first lecture of semester 2 being scared out of my wits.
The module I'm sitting for, Commercial Law, only has a 30%-40% passing percentage across all 7 R/M/I/T universities.
That's all the campuses, worldwide.

And the Aussie lecturer kept repeating that this is not a "Mickey Mouse subject"... meaning not something you take lightly, I suppose...

Argh, crap.
This is not good.
NOT good.

Save Me x Staind

2008, came and went.
I swear that last year's countdown concert to 2008 is still pretty vivid in my mind.
So, at this point of time, it still feels surreal to me.
2-0-0-9.

2008 has been fruitful, personally.
Spent another year together with family, with friends and with Han.
Graduated with a diploma and am now sitting for a degree.
Watched Han and Rain go through major hairstyle, physical and mental changes and then sat through their POP.
Made new friends through uni and work and saw with my own eyes that most Singaporean customers aren't as bad/kiasu/unreasonable as we're labeled to be.
We're pretty nice people, without having to try too hard.

2008 also brought about many heartaches/heartbreaks.
But I believe and I know, that what doesn't kill me, will make me stronger.
I just know that struggling and fighting through the troubles, problems and mishaps will help mould me into a being who is far stronger and capable than I could ever imagine.
Insyallah =)

So, I spent the last day of the 2008, having an impromptu dinner for 2 at Duke Road's Mad Jack, with Mr. Sea Soldier.

And today, the 1st of January 2009, marks the 34th month of our union...

You're the fire, that warms me when I'm cold.

You're the hand I have to hold as I grow old.
You're the shore when I am lost at sea.
You're the only thing that I like about me.
In this world where nothing else is true.
Here I am, still tangled up in you.

Thank you for spending 2006, 2007 & 2008 with me.
I will always have a weakness for you.
