its the last 3 days of my freedom..
actually, i've been busy all this while.. with BA club stuff, with the extra marking tt my CT gave me..
i'll take tt as gd training lahz.. although i'm feeling stressed over it..
bought this bumblebee after watching the 1st movie of transformers.. finally got the casing to keep it!
today just watched the 2nd movie of transformers.. n frankly speaking, the 1st one is still nicer..
the 2nd one is nerve-wrecking, a lot of fighting scenes, n quite a few dirty jokes..
the scene i like most is when optimus prime came back from the dead...
now i'm tempted to buy the optimus prime figurine.. but it cost $45 to $50!!
sobz.. no money..

i've not updated my blog for quite some time..
here are some updates abt wad i've been doing for the past few days...
met up with yiting for dinner, n we went bugis iluma for dinner. looking for a cheap place to eat wasn't easy, until we went to the top floor, where we saw this "noodle empire". the colours n style of the signboard reminded us so much abt restaurant city on facebook! after tt cheaper dinner, we went downstairs, to a place selling chocolate desserts. man are they good!

i ate this chocolate pancake with chocolate ice cream.. at first i thought the pancake wouldn't be chocolate, but i was wrong.. everything on the plate was chocolate flavoured! the only non-chocolate food was half a strawberry..

this was wad yiting ate.. same as wad we made together at yiting's house..

look at the chocolate inside oozing out!
anyway, these few days i've been going out with laogong when i was free. since laogong had the car to himself, he drove me to a few places tt we usually wouldn't go becoz of inaccessibility..
today, we went to east coast park! not to cycle, since i didn't want to sweat like a pig n dirty the car.. but we went to stroll along the beach n sat at the jetty for a long time to chit chat. after dinner at the food centre, we continued strolling.

nice nice pic of the sky!
after tt, since it was still pretty early, he drove to marina barrage. i wanted to go there for quite some time, but becoz it was pretty inaccessible, i didn't mention it. today was the perfect opportunity!
this is the view of the city skyline from the marina barrage.. pretty nice!



my dear laogong.. love him loads! =P
went home after spending quite some time chatting there.. n i saw..

this! the cat tt always loiters outside my house..

yesterday was thomas's wedding...
it is the first wedding i've attended of my fren's...
n it feels strange somehow.. watching him walk down the aisle with his newly wedded wife..
suddenly, it feels like a different world out there..
the pastor who said a few words before the newly weds were wedded, said some things tt are worth pondering over.
1. communication is impt, but there are 3 different aspects to communication: (i can't rem the first one), communicate intimately, n communicate encouragingly.
u don't just tell ur other half wad had gone on during ur day. it shouldn't be a commentary, but it should allow ur other half to know u better. let him/her know wad made u happy today, n wad made u unhappy today. tt's intimate communication.
to communicate encouragingly, it means tt u dun give names to ur other half. when u intro ur wife/hubby to ur frens, dun intro him/her as "ur maid". both parties have to work hard to keep the marriage going, n no one would feel worthy if he/she is labelled as "the maid".
2. keep ur marriage fresh, by going dating. work is always there, n saying tt u have "no time" is not a gd excuse not to spend time with ur other half.
3. no one is perfect. not even u. when u're not perfect, dun expect ur other half to be. if he/she make mistakes, just like u do too, forgive him/her before the day is over. cold war isn't going to help the situation. both would lose out.
the wedding was great. thomas was his usual self, n i can see tt he's really happy. as he put it, he was grinning so hard, his cheeks are aching. i'm happy for him.
will put up the photos when i have them...
