THIRTY-FIVE DAYS MORE TO MARRIAGE!

Let me see what are the things left undone.. hmmm...

• Venue: Booked!
• Food: Ordered!
• Invitation: JD's frens done; mine half-done
• Dress: Haven't buy yet
• Weight: Losing in progress
• Wedding Band: Bought
• Decoration: Haven't think of yet. (Will need to discuss with my jiemeis!!)

Shall upload the photos of my progress of making the invitation. It's basically a heart-shaped piece of thin wood which we drew and wrote on it. It's really an effort made, but we're both loving it. We hope that the person receiving it will feel the joy with us too. :)

Our solemnisation will be held beside the pool, with invited guests sitting inside the pool.. (oops.. I'm just kidding) Expected there will be close to 60 guests. For his, they're the close army friends and from schools. As for me, it's just my jiemeis (you guys know who you are!) my CGH bowling team-mates, poly friends and colleagues from CGH call centre. Am still thinking of the programme for that day, but it's weird for the groom and bride to think of it right? So 姐妹们, you all should know what to do wor!! hehe.. 

Really wonder how my life will be like after marriage. Some pple said it's just like everyday life with your partner, with a little bit of committment and understanding. For me, I guess it's not little at all, cos' it's alot more than that. And if you guys are wondering when I'm going to have a baby, I can tell you it's not so soon! At least 3-4 years more. Everything will wait till I get my degree. :)

love is letting the one you love feeling happy,
even though it means you're not part of their life!

L is for the way you look at me
O is for the only one I see
V is very, very extraordinary
E is even more than anyone that you adore


Love is all that I can give to you
Love is more than just a game for two
Two in love can make it
Take my heart but please don't break it
Love was made for me and you

Love was made for me and you

Was away for a course last week, and during my absence, work is piling up. Thank goodness I came back last sat to clear of part of my accumulative work. Kinda stress with the new system now, whereby my new TL will assign tasks for us to do. I've been FULLY stretched in 3 areas of work. I need a breather, and was wondering should I feedback to my boss. And the course I attended made me know more of myself. I'm the kind of person that doesn't know how to say 'NO' to others. All I know to do is to keep and take and keep and take, then break-down in the end.. =/ 
I'm not complaining about the workload that I'm getting. i mean, that's all about work right? But it's the fact that my boss didn't even realised it. Quite disappointing. =/

Am really tired of my job now. Felt so dread to go to work everyday. Can't wait for next year to come. Actually I'm planning to go oversea to work, and apparently, NZ is one of my choice, after which is Canada. What's there for me to stay put here? my granny is the only reason! I wasn't by my grandpa's bedside when he's gone, and a vow I made is that I will be by my granny's. Really scare to lose her...

Something happy to talk about. I finally got my study table and chair. Very soon I'll get my queen-sized bed, wardrobe and 3-chest cupboard. What I like about Ikea is that one designer will design a few pieces of furnitures that's of the same pattern. The furnitures I mentioned above is actually from the same designer. Really love it lots when everything in my bedroom looks alike! The most troublesome thing is that I've got to look for comfortable and affordable mattress! I needed something that's good for my back (cos I've got backaches!) and something that's soft and cosy. hiaks! I know I'm fussy, but just wanna get the best for myself. Don't tell me you don't? =p

Officially left with 46 days of singlehood...

To leave or to stay?

what should i do?

you are the only one that can fill the void in my heart...

Have you guys ever heard the song by Ryan Cabrera - True? 
It never fails to sweep my feet off the ground. :)

Each morning when I open my eyes, I'll tell myself that it will be a better day, as compared to yesterday. But soon reality hits me hard when I'm more awake from the shower. It's another day of work, with lots of repeated cycles. Every week day is literally about sleep, work, eat then sleep again. Even though after work there's supposed to be 'night life', how many times do we actually have the energy to really let our hair down and enjoy to the fullest? All I could look forward to is Fridays! (provided the next day aren't my duty Sat) 
Guess I should start looking for activities at night to keep myself ocupied! :)

Still waiting for the right time to go diving. JD's friend, Zhen Rong gave me some lobang the other time. Am still deciding when to go. Reckon everything will have to push later part of the year as I'll be away to Cambodia in Oct. 

I made a promise to myself that I MUST go to Israel when I turned 25. I always feel that 2010 is a very special year for me. Maybe cos' its a quarter of a century? Or maybe cos' I'm simply 25. Hmmm.. don't ask me why I've got this kind of thinking, beats me!! :)

Food for thought:
Whenever we said someone hurts us, be it words or actions, do slow down our pace and think this question.
"Am I the cause of this hurtful actions/words? Is there anything I've done/said that causes him/her to react this way?"

Here we are, lifting our hands to You
Here we are, giving You thanks for all You do
As we pray, and worship Your holy Name
You are here, dwelling within our prayers
