pictures on his 21st birthday:D

++ A memoir dedicating for meow meow ++

This year was another simple birthday celebration for meow meow.

I apologies to him for how da boring me did not being able to

make his birthday celebration be more special than others.

But his answer was, ‘hey, i’m more than happy of all these celebrations than anything already, especially i had you with me at least.’

*touched*

3 birthday cakes for meow meow this year.

hehs!

P8200518P8250549P8250589

1st, was da Key To Treasure theme cake from Prima Deli, by his sis.

It was during his early birthday celebration, which that was held at da downtown east costa sand for a 2 days 1 night chalet.

Then 2nd, was a mini one piece Chocolate Flage Cake from 4 leaves, by Lynn.

This was the actual day itself, a mini celebration taken place at NYP fastfood area though. But with da 4 LOUD voices projected, this happy birthday song which was sang to meow meow, turned out to be clear loud! That was enough to hear us from far deh :P

Finally 3rd one, da Champaigne cake from Swiss Bake, by me:)

Bought this cake from Takashimaya, and again i sang him a happy birthday song,

it was my first time singing alone for him, before he cut da cake.

Saw his eyes were teary then.

Oh, he was touched by me. Xp

We headed to Orchard right after our FYP to have dinner at Far East.

Then I felt like eating western. (Hahs, again western!)

But where to??

Since we’ve got really no idea of where to grab our bites,

then we suddenly thought of a particular one restaurant, at Far East.

I’ve forgotten da name of da restaurant, but i remember the owner, whose an auntie, quite chirpy. Haha!

She can like talk and talk and advertise non-stop! 

Hahas, since we stepped in, then we might as well place our orders.

Not long after we were sitted, suddenly like so many people also pop in.

Well, birthday boy brings good luck mah:P

We were lucky that the chef there actually took our order first,

cos he claimed that we’re da first to be there, hence 1st come 1st serve basis applies. Hohos!

Okays, we took orders then.

As we were waiting for da food to be served …

meow meow took out something from da plastic bag which was filled with presents from his labmate and mine in it …

I thought he’s gonna show me what, maybe it’s what i’ve been wanted:P

But i was SO REALLY surprise when i get to see …

THIS!

It is quite a limited edition.

BUT DON’T WASTE MONEY MEOW MEOW!!!!!!! ADIDAS’S WAY CHEAPER!!

(Hehe … okies, i got alittle carried away here. =P)

This is gonna be my very first Pure Pink Puma watch from meow meow.

It’s our 21st month anniversary present from him:)

He knew that i wanted an Adidas watch long ago, and i only go for blue or white version. But sadly, i just can’t seems to find it in any City Chain or any outlets somehow! And what not, it’s everywhere in the streets that everyone’s wearing!!!

Too common is it?

So … i dropped that idea.

But what the heck?

I’ve got this Pure Pink Puma watch instead.

And it’s prettier although it has only a few simple functions.

Thank you meow meow!

I really really love it.

Really i’m not disappointed, but feel heart pinch for you in fact.

You’ve really got a good taste with watches:)

In returns, i ONLY got him a stencilled tee from Vala.

My Best Boyfriend.

P8250581 

In an "additional", i also got him a Nalgene water bottle.

Noticed that he had only 2 water bottles,

and they seems brokening and it smelt and thus …

wanted very much to get a new one for him.

I attempted to squeeze da ‘ BEST BOYFRIEND’ tee into da Nalgene bottle,

but failed eventually cos i’m afraid that it could might spoil da tee.

AND OVERALL …

With these 2 things that i bought to compare with da watch …

I AM APPEARING TO BE SO STINGY!!

There goes our 21st month anniversary.

=(

Hahs!

I promise, you’ll be reciprocated =)

Horray! Holiday has arrive!

Woah! I felt extremely happy and excited yesterday, cos yesterday, 25th of August 2006, Friday, was my last day of FYP.

What’s so happy about it anyway?

It’s becos …

I don’t have to pull myself out of da bed to wake up at 7am every mornings,

for da rest of da 6 weeks till school starts in de October.

OH FINALLY!

Hahs.

Of course, the happiest thing to be happy about, has gotta be his 21st birthday celebration on our 21st month anniversay :D

Anniversay is a special day to be remembered and to let both of us know where our relationship has reached so far.

Recall back alittle …

when we were still in our 2nd year 2nd sem that time.

It was also a Friday, and i was having night class from 6:40pm to 9:30pm for a module called Networking and Comm.

He told me beforehand that he’s going to be too busy to come out then.

So i thought we had to give it a miss and then celebrate da next day instead.

( By the way, he had no classes on every Friday )

But i was wrong.

meow meow actually came at about 5pm, with his presents and waited for me just to let me know he hasn’t forgotten about out 1st year anni.

And so, i had to excuse myself from Bao Bei and Swe Swe(Irene) but to go join my dear meow meow to having dinner.

We headed to no where and decided to dine in in school South Canteen to have a simple western food in stead.

(Of course, compensation awaits till da next day’s event:D)

Hehs, we had a simple and short dinning but we both really did enjoyed our times together. Which to me, it was more than enough.

He passed me over a pretty paper bag with something inside.

It was a present from him:)

I took out da presents from da paper bag, and i saw it was a big glass of bottle with a cute little bear inside cuddling a bottle of BurBerry Brit perfume!

Before i went for night classes, he even bought me a slice of chocolate cake, but i chose to keep it until the lesson ends, so that i could share the chocolate cake  with him.

Aww … that’s so sweet of meow meow!!

Everything he do, he buy and he did.

What i did was keep saying ‘thank you meow meow’ only!!

Until now, da perfume is still not opened up yet.

I just can’t bear to ruin da beautiful creation done by meow meow!

It is so cute, fragrancing and heart melting:D

Time to go and i had to leave him for lessons.

But that night …

he waited and waited in a tutorial room to do

some self-studying while waiting for me to finish lessons.

How can i not be happy over da moon??

To many girls out there, perhaps you may think …

"well, it’s natural for my boyfriend to wait for me even if he had to wait for hours. Girls have priviledge and guys don’t. We makeup and doll ourself nicely for him to look proud. And so he should not complain."

To this i have no comments.

Becos i don’t put on makeups, and it won’t take me long to pick an outfit.

But i will not let meow meow wait for too long any time i can be punctual.

I heartache for he doesn’t deserve such unnecessary long waitings.

Soo soo many times he’d been waited for me to finish lessons just to sent me home becos it was late to go home alone.

Even untill now … those sweet things still keep flashing back to remind me

how sweet meow meow can be everytime.

For da things he does for me, will always meant be a surprise.

Thank you meow meow … and i’m really grateful and feeling bliss.

It’s been 6 month since we have a 6 week break.

I just want to spend this precious holidays to enjoy everything with you:)

***********************

Pictures be up soon … :)

*Hehs, diabetes liao!!!*

Laters! :D

i’m just 5 days away from da freaking final presentation.

I’m IN SKOOL. Hahs! And I’ve got in here to blog again!

It is not cybertai.com, not ultrahaha.com. BUT it’s da yandao.net’s proxy! (sorry, but i’m looking forward to see chiobu.net in time to come, hahas!)

For da "benefits" for all NYP students, i hope this website would be able to stand for long, pleaaassse! :P

Well, i noticed da color font bar isn’t up there …

maybe due to surfing friendster from this proxy, many things like pictures can’t even be seen. It’s ok though, cos mine purpose here is to blog. But i just can’t help but to complain about da skool’s networking!

It is damn slow, and i mean SLOW!

No color font, nevermind. But this size of characters i’m typing now is SUPER small.

*shrugs*

I don’t care … i just want to blog this time, that’s all.

Furthermore, my pc at home is down with fever(i mean it’s down).

And i do not own a lappy of my own:( Maybe it’s time for "it" to get a retirement, after 4 years of facing the owner.

Don’t say/wave good bye to me, p4!! :’(

*************

DOOM! I’m meeting da doom real soon!!!

I’m 5 days away from presentation, and i’m not done with even 1 slide yet!

And what not, meow meow’s birthday chalet is on this coming SUNDAY!!

Surely i wouldn’t want to touch on any of my project stuffs that day. Cos i want meow meow to feel that i’m there with him, and not with projects!

Gosh …

WHAT A CLASH.

Should I finish off my projects within these 2 days, else i’ll have to drag meow meow’s lappy there to do my boring own stuffs.

I really feel like shouting, ‘I WANT TO COMPLAIN!!’

Why so?

I want to complain and ask why SO last minute i got SOO many things to do OUT OF NOWHERE! [[My main point is not ALL becuz i have many works to do, read on ...]]

Oh, did i mentioned i was given a program to gao dim(it means settle) as well?

Yes yes, a program to be debugged and to do testing on da all-build-on-my-own JTAG adapter.

What followed up next, has gotta be getting all da 10 adapters dressed up with my pre-orders of da cover.

After which, that’ll be all for my prototype making.

Ha! Not forgetting this, i still have da reports to deal with. [[da main point comes in ... ]]

I’m so not happy right now while i’m typing this, as i’d did asked her whether should i be compiling a hardcopy report at the end of my project dateline.

And she replied with her usual seriousness tone, "no need to".

Then after, 2 weeks ago i happened to pop out da same question again just to double confirm, again she replied me a NO.

BUT what’s now? On Monday she just pop by my workstation and tell me, "I want you to compile a documentation by the end of next week".

For those might think that, well you can actually copy and paste some of da things from your AES.

Sorry, there’s no way i could do so.

They are both separate issues now.

I asked, ‘then what about my AES?’

She said, ‘well, i don’t think the documentation goes with da AES, so you just have to leave it’.

WHAT’S WRONG WITH YOU, MADAM?

WHY NOT TELL ME THAT, I BETTER OFF NOT SUBMIT AND FAIL THIS SEMESTER?

*i shrugs with a big sigh this time*

What can i say more besides replying, ‘ok’, ‘fine’?

Had she being kind enough to tell me 1 or 2 gracious weeks in advance, i would’d have my tasks organized better.

Thus, i don’t have to waste so much time on da AES. At least i can get da report done by this week already! Now that this sudden documention had intercept, HOW ON EARTH AM I GONNA EVER FINISH IT ALL BY WEDNESDAY!

NEVERMIND LAR! (sorry, i wasn’t shouting at you guys, hehs!)

I’m superb not ready … therefore, i’m NOT gonna get da reports done first, i shall take my own sweet time to hand in on da very last day, which is Friday. *hrmp! and turned away*

*************

Come what may. What’s more important now, of course, will be my dear meow meow’s birthday:)

I here by … *ahem* have 2 presents for him.

As both are pressie for his 21st birthday and our 21st month! =D

1 of it is a heart shape Paris Sweet Sixteen perfume which i’d bought specially for him long ago in da June, when i was in Japan for holidays.

May you questioned … "huh,it sounded so girly!!"

Yeah, it sounds so! But who cares? BECAUSE THIS IS INFACT A PERFUME USED BY MALE.

I don’t know IF i had bought da wrong one.

BUT I HOPE, THAT THE MALE PROMOTER DID NOT LIED TO ME!!!!!!!!!

I got this for 30% off from S$189,exclusive of 5% tax. (So it’s 25% off actually … )

Reasonable?

I’ll post up da pics of da bottle if possible.

What made me fall in love with this perfume was this beautiful little heart shape on it’s bottle:)

If i were to get this thing for myself, i would’d have ponder for a long time.

I’m DAMN stingy, you see … haha!

Since i freaking thought i lost da 140++ bucks already, so where on earth have i got da money to get this?

Hehs! It’s always good to travel with my parents. I LOVE THEM!

Apparently it’s my dad who loaned da cash to me, to buy him this. *beams*

Should you guys been noticing something … WHY AM I TELLING ALL THIS IN HERE BY THE WAY?

Hahs!

It is becos … i’d UN-INTENTIONALLY revealed it to meow meow already!

Obviously, this is no longer a surprise anymore.

But fret not, i still have 1 more for him, remember?

Hehe!

Hopefully he’ll like them :)

Do U Only Look at “Packagaing”?

Happiness is not so much in having as in sharing. We make a living by what we get but we make a life out of what we give.

Here’s a little passage from an artical that i wanna share, hopefully everyone of you gets the message

.

.

.

A young man was getting ready to graduate from college.

For many months he had admired a beautiful sports car in a dealer’s showroom, and knowing his father could well afford it, he told him that was all he wanted.

As Graduation Day approached, the young man awaited for signs if his father had purchased the car. Finally, on the morning of his graduation, his father called him into his private study. His father told him how proud he was to have such a fine son, and told him how much he loved him. Then he handed his son a beautiful wrapped gift box.

Curious, but somewhat disappointed, the young man opened the box and found a lovely, leather-bound Bible, with the young man’s name embossed in gold.

Angrily, he raised his voice to his father and said,

"With all your money you give me a Bible?" 

He then stormed out of the house, leaving the Bible.

Many years passed and the young man was very successful in business. He had a beautiful home and a wonderful family, but realizing his father was very old, he thought perhaps he should go to see him.

He had not seen him since that graduation day.

Before he could make the arrangements, he received a telegram telling him his father had passed away, and willed all of his possessions to his son. He needed to come home immediately and take care of things.

When he arrived at his father’s house, sudden sadness and regret filled his heart. He began to search through his father’s important papers and saw the still new Bible, just as he had left it years ago. With tears, he opened the Bible and began to turn the pages. As he was reading, a car key dropped from the back of the Bible. It had a tag with the dealer’s name, the same dealer who had the sports car he had desired. On the tag was the date of his graduation, and the words …

"PAID IN FULL".

.

.

.

Base on the story above … ask ourselves,

how many times we missed the blessings because they are not packaged as we expected?

Do not spoil what you have by desiring what you don’t have; but remember that what you now have was once among the things you only hoped for. Sometimes we don’t realize the good fortune we have or we could have because we expect "the packaging" to be different. What may appear as bad fortune may in fact be the door that is just waiting to be opened.

"Contentment is not the fulfillment of what you want, it is the realisation of how much you already have."

Have you now understood? :)
