It has been awhile.. so many things… so little time…

I just ended up crashing at the end of every single day of my internship which eventually culminated in a lapsing into massive hibernation mode on Friday night. Though, I’d attribute that in part to that glass of house red that I had at my daddy’s birthday dinner. I did indeed feel like a glass of wine to unwind after work, and so in a bid not to seem noobish and cheapo, and since my parents were paying, I replied with a flourish when the waiter asked if I wanted the promotion wine or house red: “house red, please.” YEA. Good move, my girl. I finished my steak and dessert looking all flushed.

But I digress, so just add a glass of red wine to a general sleep debt and you get a girl so sleepy that she crashes at 1130 only to get a call from her boy at 12 that he was sending tau huay over from rochor and then proceeding to crawl back into bed again. And wake up at 1230 to his delivery call, stumble down the stairs to the gate to give a sleepy hug and then, in his words, “ float back into the house”.

The past few weeks or so have felt the same way, the hours going by, only to be punctuated by events from time to time. The routine of gymming, running, tennis, and hiding at home was.. how should I say, it definitely wasn’t one of intensity/inebriated excitement and decadence/dalliances, (we even had a clubbing abstinence of a month only to break it last Saturday.) but rather, it has left me with a feeling of contentment and satisfaction.But as the boy starts school on monday, the perfect dreamy summer come to an end as I fill my days up with me time while thinking of ways to see him out of that godforsaken place. SAFTI all over again.

Well, there was this one time when I met up with the girls, and decided to execute a “bumblebee surprise” plan since I was early. So I trotted of to Toys R Us and plonked myself right smack where all the transformers were. And as usual, I was the only girl there, checking out all the various transformers. Whats new, especially since I’m usually the only girl at the wts section at the gym. but LO N BEHOLD. there were autobots since the last time they were out of stock!even optimus prime Mr Potato Head, which honest to goodness does no or negative justice to Optimus. I mean, the charming and heroic Optimus Prime kinda fell a few notches down the cool scale when I realized that he has the same voice as Eeyore.Yea, the ol grey squishy miserable donkey.
But in anycase, I almost fell prey to consumerism and wanted to pre-order that huge ass fully convertible bumblebee that cost a whopping 160 bucks for the bf’s bday. but after being told that i was out of my mind, I ended up with a pretty cool figurine of bumblebee. Pleased as punch I was. I almost thought that I had bought bumblebee for myself.
I delude myself sometimes. A surprise is a surprise.(even though some surprises get foiled. AHEM) And a gift a gift, though it may only be the first in the weeks to come. 20 aug.

A sunday brunch with 2 lovelies, mag and wing felt oh so wonderful. (thanks babe, i koped the pics from you)

and wing loves taking photos in my car as i drive

Then there has been a recent last burst of partying after a hiatus of sorts what with yq’s friend’s private party at MOS (where i keep promising myself i’ll never go to ever again) where people were happy with stashing bottles at tables and then being all happy on the dancefloor and where reunions happened.

our private bar. ( okfine, it was self-service) bottle happy me.

with tiankai (ning’s bro). from big bully many a year ago to clubbing friend. gee.. how weird is that? in a good way that is.

the girls.. xiuming after not seeing her for years!

YQ DA MAN

… and we’ll dance to the rhythm…

I guess somehow, partying has resulted in complicated love. very complicated. See, Sx and kenneth are 1 couple and I the 3rd party. yea I tried to qie sx.

And I suppose I had a way with kenneth…

But all’s fair in love and war and sx made a comeback.

so heartbroken I was, I found love in jackie.

Complicated stuff eh. But well, I’ve come to realize that after a long day at work with lack of sleep, alcohol is potent shite. 5 girls, 4 jugs of vodka lime/long island tea and 6 flamings, you get one crazy night. I don’t think kenneth has ever seen me that high before.

huiqing,kal, vanessa, jackie and I

obligatory toilet shot

then there was the insane crowd

you know how I mentioned earlier that there was a complicated love affair? True love prevailed…

Took a look at our msn history just the other day and had some interesting finds. We had a whirlwind romance, and we still do.

1 week after our first date.. it was that special night at zouk

2 weeks after our first date.. he was in love.

3 weeks after our first date, we got together.

and now we’re into our 6th month together so cheers, my love. school is starting and things are gonna be different but nothing’s gonna stop us now. ( i swear i’m in love with this song)

//Let em say were crazy, what do they know
Put your arms around me baby
Dont ever let go
Let the world around us just fall apart
Baby we can make it if were heart to heart
