Happy New Year everyone and I hope you have all collected a lot of red packets past 2 days. This is also the first CNY tt Adam went visiting with me so it was actually both a nightmare and a sweet experience. Nightmare coz both of us have never brought our partners to CNY visiting so it was a logistically challenging task and it was sweet coz after all the screaming and negotiations, we managed to spend the 2 days blissfully in each others' company. =)

Alas, due to all the new year goodies, I have a sore throat that doesn't go away and a nose that keeps running or stuffing up. I have finished the whole box of Panadol Flu (almost lah) but still, I am feeling woozy. I can blow my nose until dizzy leh!!!

CNY has always been about family so I am very happy to hear tt my bestie might be inviting someone into her family again soon. Yes Di, not trying to put pressure on you, but just simply happy that you MIGHT get him. Hehe!! It's better to be chilled about it though, so you can be the chilled one while I get all nervous and excited for you!!

Adam was also a sweet bunny and although I like to chide him, sometimes I really feel that I should learn not to be too harsh on him. He purposely went home to change his shirt coz I didn't like what he was wearing. He really put in effort for us so I have to really show appreciation for that part. Of course, like I told his mum, there will be more CNYs to look forward to together.

Ham vs FIsh

He is underground now, and uncontactable. I can't find my iPod cable so I can't upload my songs. My tuition got cancelled and I only found out when I reached my tutee's house. Nothing is going right today.

Listening to The Script's Breakeven.

I feel too full. My skin is too dry. My hair is frizzy. And during moments like these, I like to think of him. And the funny antics that he gets up to.

My mum loves him too. I think it is a FACE thing, but maybe I should let him know more often how much he means to me.

Gonna cheer myself up with a good thorough facial and a hair treatment. =)

End of First week

And no work has been done!! HAhahaha!!! Anyway, kinda looking forward to my weekend, which I believe has already begun...

Meeting RAINBOW tml, which is an exciting event because I have not seen them for almost 6 weeks I believe... And I think Baby Gordon is coming tml too! =) Adam's bringing us out for lunch before the evening rendezvous with RAINBOW.

Sunday will be a super slack day, again... Just us hanging out I think. And I will be meeting Di for lunch on Monday. Apparently, there is a lot of gossip that needs sharing!! Oh, I can't wait!!

Alright, I came online actually to look at the jobs on offer... Shall get back to proper work for now.

Insomnia

I cannot sleep... I dunno why... I just can't... I close my eyes but I can still see the blackness and I dun drift away... Sigh, shall try again in a few minutes.

Hi-lights from Eurotrip 2008

First day in London and the touristy thing to do would be to take a photo with the London Eye!! Too bad our Singapore Flyer had to stop spinning.


The winds in London are frightfully unforgiving and we had to stop for a break at Hyde Park on the way home for some hot dogs and hot chocolate!!

We have arrived in Barcelona!!!


This was taken at Park Guell. One of Gaudi's work.


Single shot of Adam at the steps of Park Guell...

Know why I was so happy?? Coz we were in the shopping district of Barcelona!! Couldn't resist swinging from the lamppost!
It was snowing on the day we climbed to Prague Castle... My toes felt wet and I told DIE! My shoes are leaking!!! But fear not, the sneakers that you all bought me for my birthday was not spoilt!! The soles were just a bit on the thin side so the cold travelled from the freezing stone floors and into my shoe so my toes felt wet. But they were not. My toes are all still intact.

Adam should have bought this...

The pastries at the bakery opposite our hostel in Berlin.

Food at the Christmas Market in Berlin. We were famished when we arrived!!

Amsterdam was a bit of a bore... Not very exciting... Just very sleazey... But there were swans swimming in the canals everywhere!!

Adam and his "Bao Zha Tou" in Amsterdam. He is posing in front of their not-so-impressive National Monument.

Lastly, taken in the ferris wheel at Hyde Park on the day of our anniversary. It has been a great trip (although we were lacking in sleep). Our suitcases survived the cobbled streets of Europe, we almost got pick-pocketed, had a natural fridge on the ledge of our Prague apartment, ate too much at Konnopke Imbiss in Berlin and smoked too little in Amsterdam. But we had fun. =)

Ai ren's Blog

I want to say something...

From way way way before I left for Europe, until now... It is still Lixuan's birthday entry on ai ren's blog!!! Argh!!! Ai ren, update leh!! It's bad enough that I dun get to see you all often, isn't that what the blogs are for?! Hmm?! Hm?!

Anyway, Happy New Year to all beloveds. Welcome to 2009!!! 2008 was crap (or so they say... Seriously, I have nothing to hold against 2008) and I hope 2009 will be a better year.
