How many months have passed since the last time I was here? I've not lost track of time, merely too occupied with the ticking clock. 
And too occupied with my immense pride. 

No, not only male has that pride and ego shit. If it's scientifically proven that only male has it, then I must be a male. How difficult it is to drop your pride and ego to admit you're in the wrong? For me, it IS difficult and I casually associate it to my "princess" attitude. C'mon, who am I kidding to even label this unlikable and juvenile attitude to "princess" when fairy tale is clearly a conjured up space. Nothing to do with being a princess or not, I am just being me, this immature side of me. 

I don't throw around the word sorry easily. It is a good thing if you look at it from this angle - I'm not that person who says sorry just to avoid any argument when I don't mean it from the bottom of my heart. But the reason I don't utter sorry is simply attributed to my highly held pride and ego. 

A night's sleep is therapeutic indeed. It wakes me up, non-literally. 
A wake up call. 
And I hope it's never too late. Because who knows when who will be tired of dealing with my shit and decide to make a move. 

People may say I've changed him, but the changes I've undergone because of him... I'm seeing a better me, for him and the ones who love me and I don't know how long I'd take to realize that I need to change if I was not with him. 

Sorry.
Sorry for doubting you. That's the last thing you deserve from me when you've never doubted me even when people around you said the worst of that me who was locking hands with someone else. 
Sorry for letting emotions get the better of my reasoning skill.
Sorry for not saying sorry earlier.
I'm learning to, as you can see. 
Came across a blogger's post on her visit to the Mummy Exhibition at MBS and it intrigued me. I mean who wouldn't be intrigued by events that have occurred thousand centuries ago which can be reminisced & displayed right before you now? All the past tenses are the reasons why present tenses exist which will in turn create the future tenses for the next generations.
 Strolling through museums around the globe should be made a job, then I'd probably find myself not complaining a bit about stepping into the working society as why whine when I enjoy what I'm doing every second? My top perfect dream job. 

Saturday date was of course to the Mummy Exhibition which I've spent the last 5 minutes rambling about. It has been a while since the both of us took public transport which took us more than 30 minutes & I really do miss those golden days back then when Redbull hasn't gotten his driving license. Yes, convenience aside, I can cross my heart & aver that I prefer taking public transport even if it is more time consuming because I'm not in a rush to end our dates so every minute that we spend together counts, right? But, Redbull is just, I'd say plain lazy & too used to the convenience the car is bringing.

 I enjoy taking slow walks, or perhaps just have myself lying on a patch of grass. Actually, simply put it as just doing random things together without racing against time. Be it schooling or working, I always have to be a slave of time, hence during my personal free time, I wish for him to compliment with my random suggestions like picnic, cycling, night walking, etc. But well, most of the times, I kept the random suggestions to myself for fear of rejection/any sign of complaint or reluctance during rejection or after acceptance of the suggestions.
Happiness is a state of mind which I'm still living in, just that we all have dreams, wishes & fantasies, haven't we?


That afternoon was rainy but the skies did us a favor by containing the tears by the time we alighted from the bus.

Making our way to MBS!

No photo taking is allowed so...

 A 15-20 minutes long 3D film which unveils the mysterious Egyptian burial practices and mummification process will be the first stop that welcomes you. I'm not sure if you can give this a miss and proceed straight to view the artifacts and 6 genuine well preserved mummies, but well the film is interesting so since you're already there, why would you wanna miss it right?



Early dinner at 

 ↓ ↓ ↓





Choco drink which we ordered cause we saw almost all the tables had this and sure it was good. 
Price: $8

Truffle fries was a letdown. Maybe because we had nicer truffle fries at Omakase Burger. 
Price: ~$15

My main course Ultimate Benedict made up for the disappointing truffle fries.
With 2 fluffy pancakes, steak, 2 benedicts, bacons, tomatoes & lettuces. 
Price: ~$20
But as you can see from the picture, you can guess that I gave up trying to maintain the appearance of this dish while savoring it.

Redbull's main which he didn't even finish half of it. He was mad like hell, finding it a total waste of time & money. Well, I find his wasn't that bad but it sure wasn't worth the trip and money.
Price: ~$18


Looking to its dessert section for comfort 

but ended up being more disappointed after trying this apple pie that has such a tough crust. 
I'd like to have faith in the other delicious looking desserts, so till then for your desserts.



Yet another huge milestone in life - selection of our future home. Still in shock, a positive shock. Never have I thought about purchasing a house at this age which I do consider young. Of course we've countless common plans in mind but realizing them is definitely another whole new level of, living.

"When you love someone, you don’t leave them even when they’re at their worst, you don’t give up even when the world concludes your other half as hopeless, you stick with them and you do everything for them even at that time when they can do nothing for you. Cause that’s what love means. Giving when you receive nothing, staying when everyone left, loving without being loved and sometimes it means choosing them over everything, even yourself."

Beautiful & touching words are always easier said than done but I'll do my best to deliver this line of thought through actions, to you.


Last Friday, Janice & I went for a "secret mission". Thereafter, we had our dinner settled at Popeyes before heading to twelve cupcakes in all high hopes of trying the flavor of the day, which was 'Baileys Chocolate'.

"Baileys chocolate is sold out."

Ahhhhh, those 5 words I didn't wanna hear. Well, I settled for the second best, which was whatever remaining flavors displayed through the glass. Cupcakes are best eaten fresh, it sure wouldn't taste as good if you kept them in the fridge.

Got to Redbull's house, took a hour power nap before driving out for our midnight movie - Beautiful Creatures. It is the Best movie of 2013 (thus far) for me!

 After watching this movie, I realized perhaps there's another side of me who has a thing for geeky & honest romantic who has a contagious & funny laughter, just like the male lead.


Pictures gotten from Google

Meaningful conversation with gf M early in the morning. I believe people do feel more sentimental the moment they wake up and the moment they are about to sleep.

Among our nonsensical conversations, M said how she feels that sometimes some people are merely in love with the idea of being in an unrequited love. This I couldn't agree more. Because when one is being in an unrequited love relationship, one plays the perfect scenes repeatedly in the head. So perfect it's almost untrue. Just like how we always fall in love with fairytales, isn't it? But once you step both foot in to a reciprocated love relationship, the shape of reality starts to form before your eyes. That's when both parties start to feel really naked emotionally as their flaws & imperfections lay right before each other's eyes. Suddenly, the perfect him/her & the perfect relationship you've been picturing in your head aren't as perfect anymore.

2 possible outcomes:
1. Gradually, one starts to lose interest and would rather just be in love with the idea of being in an unrequited relationship.
2. Embrace the imperfections & flaws while still being in love with the lifetime partner.

Sidenote: At the end of the day, our relationship falls in the second category.

|| One more day to 14th ||
Numerous different phases of our lifes, we've spent it with each other. Yesterday was a huge milestone of our lifes, our future life together. Sitting on his lap, him taking charge of the mouse, me taking charge of the keyboard, we sent in the online application for the Nov launch of BTO flats.

5 years ago, I never would have thought of what happened yesterday. I can't even predict what's going to happen tomorrow, let alone 5 years later. But, when you met the right one, life with him is one godamn sure thing that you would never have to predict because it's one of the few things that you can be certain of.

Some may feel that 21 is the time when you should have the time of your life; taking risks, making mistakes, doing whatever you want to do and letting nothing gets in your way. But, I view it a whole lot differently. Feeling secure, stable, blissful are my cups of tea and I find these cups of tea a true blessing.

Certain I'll never let off my grip of these precious cups.

|| Ps: Pray that we get our flat. ||
