21

In places no one will find,
All your feelings go deep inside. 
It was there when I realized, 
That forever was in your eyes.
The moment I saw you cry. 

Alrite, my 21st had no bangs, whizzes, booms or alcohol (haha) but I liked it all the same :) It might have been a touch dull, but heck, work left me no mind space to plan..or to be bothered too ;p

Yesss, I got my "wish" to work again in F&B. Always, always be careful what you wish for. I made a hasty decision to work in Lavender teeheehee. Sometimes I'd knock myself on the head for agreeing to take the job, but I'd think back and it was what I wanted at that time. Oh well. It was, somewhat, in a way. Bwahahaha.

After cancelled dinner plans (one thing I dislike my birthday being in Dec, especially at the end. People no around wan. Sien dao). he suggested takei plans and I jumped as much as my hurt feet let me :D Two Tats, CY and I went to Blitz bwahahaha. It's been sooooo longggg sinceeeee.

Came back and he gave me his three surprises :) Another night came another box, and Zhi's gift too :) Sure beats getting hungover ;p Considering circumstances, I wasn't much in the mood to have a big celebration either. Another year has passed, and more PKs have widened their distance, so I didn't expect much anyway. I'm still hunting for a watch for my biggest 21st present, wonder where else if left to look at..

So hmm, my 20th year.. I survived two more uni semesters, both which stretched my endurance capabilities to its very length. The first I did regret for not doing my absolute best, but the 2nd one I did what I could do, and accepted the results. My absolute best.

Most of 2011 revolved around uni and work. I got by on a day-by-day basis. Money was tight, stretching out whatever I made the previous month for my expenses. It was hard saying no to outings, but I made it :) The few social exceptions I had were girly meet-ups, the rare PK meeting and yeaaaaah teh BEAST concert woot woot. Probably the most thrifty year :p

And..there was you :) Dec marks 4 and 7 hehe. It was a pretty good journey, with its occasional bumps and holes along the way. Discovered places and food in PJ and KL. Always going back to our tried-and-tested fav places when finances allow.

You were a pretty good friend, even more so as a boyfriend :) I like that we can come to a compromise or agree to disagree. Last NYE we spent it messaging across town, this year we'll spend it together :)

So as of this time, I resigned from F&B and resigned myself to another retail job. One that has regular hours, won't bore my socks off me and not overly hectic either. With a reasonable wage per hour too. Possible? I think so. Just gotta keep looking, again :p

OWNed xD

Pretty good way to destress :D

Confessions of the Mad and Terrifically Insane

Or, I could name this post "Sick". Wouldn't be as interesting, would it?

So yes, I am Mad and Terrifically Insane. A little tired too. Hello, I am the Mad, Tired and Terrifically Insane, and have been for a week now. Rawr.

Is there a point to this? I think so.

My tale begins with one too many nights out in a row. Wednesday, Thursday then Friday. Heat overload too. Tonsils, feverish during work, horrible flu, stuffed nose and cough. In that order. Goway stuffy dose. I 'ate you :( After 3 days of tahan-ing, I finally took the day off on Thursday. Bless room temperature air!

Cough cough. Week 2 in the Studio begins tomorrow. Week 1 consisted of being sick, learning basic tools of Illustrator (so much that Photoshop feels weird to use now :P) and tutorials. Tomorrow, Studio will have a new intern :D If what Anna says is true, then I remain the only 9-series person in the office.

Ramble ramble. Sleeping late and waking up early yesterday didn't help. Meh. Rainy mornings *clings to headboard in refusal to wake up* Ching Ming in KL with family. One good thing that it was rainy was the smoke didn't affect my throat as much. Breakfast at McD's, then to Tesco Extra for some shopping. Reached home early afternoon, showered. For all the hate of hairdryers, I didn't get to nap in the afternoon.

When I finally did, had to play chauffeur. Roar roar roar. Night time, mom wanted to go to Tesco again, since she didn't get all she wanted earlier. Lol. Tagged along, went for 9.30pm noodles after. Rushed home, Boon Yen was already waiting outside my house. Leaped into the car.

"Sorry sorry sorry!!"

Vroooom to Tbun cuz I had itchy fingers. L4D2 woooooo! :D As always, we warmed up by logging into Facebook first -.-'' Played Hard Rain and Parish. Somehow managed to get through the 2 maps with not much problem. To help others escape, I died in both the last two maps. Sigh ._. So closeeee.

This was last week, but

 I have gots the powah!

Standby for my dear Adidas which is reaching the end of its lifespan

I think after getting this pair, I have somehow become infatuated with red and pink *eyebrow twitch* Like, where-have-these-two-colours-been-my entire-life kinda thing.

Roar. 

That led me to a frenzy to contemplate getting future gadgets in said pink and red...
