The old and the now

The old :

• You're too fat, try losing more weight - you're thighs are humongous! 
• I can't hold hands with you in public. People will know.
• Why do you call me on my phone so many times? It's freaking annoying!! 
• Stop eating and go to gym more often.
• You're doing it wrong!! AGAIN! how stupid can you be???
• You're too good for me. That's why we have to end this. 

Now: 

• You're not fat. And I don't care if you do :) 
• I wanna smother you in public and I'm not embarrassed by doing so
• I'm sorry for not picking up your calls, I was busy. I'll call you in 5 mins:)
• Lets go eat!! My treat :)
• Everything feels right with you 
• "You're the best and I could not have asked for a more perfect person to love"
• "I wanna be with you as long as I can "

I knew I deserved better. I would not want to settle for anything less. And that's why I wanna grow old with you.

Pharmacy Ball 2011

Pharmacy Ball was a blast ! Farina and I decided a long time ago, that we should reserve our first and last ball for our last year at Pharmacy school. And we did :) 

Yang helped me heaps with make-up. And Alia was my hair-stylist for the night :) Thank you girls!! I don't know what I'll do without you peeps! Most likely go to the ball with bad makeup and hair. haha!

I had 3 tequila shots that night. And I can "proudly" say I was still standing. Looks like I've still got my tolerance somewhere. HAHA! 

Anways , I'll let the pictures do the talking :)

Shot #1 : Euphoria

Shot #2 : I'm a happy hamster :)

Shot #3 : Control yourself woman!

P4's yo!

Thank you

Thank you for loving me
Thank you for supporting me
Thank you for putting up with me
Thank you for always being a phone call away
Thank you for everything.

You make me wanna grow old with you :)

To smell or not to smell?

For the past couple of days, I've been experiencing something that's called "Phantosmia" - sensing smells that aren't there, also known as olfactory hallucinations. Weird huh? I've had these before, but it comes and goes. When I was cooking the other day, I thought I smelled smoke, and panicked thinking I burned the beef on the stove. But then, after looking at it, it didn't seem burned, or tasted burned. Most of the time, my smelling senses seem blunted, and I can only smell this one smell thats so hard to describe. It's not smelly, smells a lil like perfume, but a very subtle one. hmm. maybe I should get this checked. Lol , it'll be funny if this could be the down side of too much caffeine.

Optimism

I'm looking forward to graduation :)

Hopefully I'll be living the dream? haha , I hope so. Gotta be optimistic this time round. For some odd reason, I think I'm getting used to the feeling of being independent, and I'm sorta liking it :) I pray I'll be able to bless others with my work eg: being a super-kick-ass pharmacist.

Looking forward to Pharmacy ball too. Got this lovely dress (pink +black) which complimented my figure. FINALLY!! According to yang, it's called "colour blocking" . I'm such a noob in the fashion world. I wonder who comes up with all these "fashion terms". I guess thats why I have my super-fashionable sisters, friends, and my boy friend for :) Yang was asking if I was worried if there would be other people wearing the same dress at the ball . I replied saying " Well, I wont feel insulted. I'll feel proud that at least I've got some fashion sense" hehe. *Palm to face right? 


Oh well, sometimes I can't be bothered dressing up. Not like I want to impress anyone anyways. I think I dress presentable enough *cough cough. I envy you girls who can wake up in the morning, and think of what clothes to wear, make up, and still have time to pick jewelry. My dressing up would only take me 10mins out of bed - brushing teeth, eyeliner, DONE!

It's kinda gloomy here in dunners at the mo. Gonna start cooking dinner soon, and study for my stupid test this Friday. cant wait for the mid-sem break !!

I lie down watching the clouds pass me by,

Wishing I was by your side.

Snowy dunedin

Its snowing in Dunedin . Apparently it's the first in 30 years to ever snow this hard. The scenery is breath taking, like the whole city is covered with a soft white blanket - of snow!!

But there is a down side to all this "excitement" , classes were like usual even in this sucky weather. Come on pharmacy school you gotta do better than this !! such a pain in the arse.

So early in the morning, at about 8.30am, I chugged along, skipped breakfast , and looked like a crazy person holding whatever I can find to keep myself from sliding down my hill, just to get to ONE stupid workshop.Turned out, only 4 of us from group B were present and we had to combine workshops with another group.  We also had lectures from 2-4.  repeat : pain in the arse.

Don't get me wrong. I like snow. Just I don't like being outside when it snows :) Now I'm enjoying a hot cup of coffee in my " World's best 21year old cup" (I know it's a very old cup =.= ) , all comfy in bed, watching Futurama , and missing my other half. Thank God the day is almost over.

Blue valentine

Currently watching this movie "Blue Valentine"

The movie is about a married couple and their kid in a so-so house. Their marriage is slowly crumbling as reality hits - work stress, house work, being a mom, taking care of 1 child, etc .The husband is somehow making an effort to save the marriage , but the wife seems to be emotionally distant. She seems to be getting more and more annoyed with her husband's "childish ways" like teaching the kid to eat from the table cos the kid refused to eat her breakfast (which I found so cute! ) and his childish tantrums.  This triggers a series of memories (on the wife's part) , of how they fell in love, meeting in college etc. In a way, she's trying to find love again.

What I find scary about the movie is  its actually true in real life.

Sure, dating is all so fun. No worries, no mortgage, no taxes, no bill, no kids ! And when you get married, everything changes . From "Hello sexy" to "Hello, can you please throw the rubbish". From " You're such a sexy minx" to " You're such a bum" . lol.

Marriages take work , I know. And that's why , I'm constantly reminding myself not to take things for granted :)

Blessed

I'm counting my blessings :)

There's beauty all around, when there's love at home

I wish I was at home, watching mom's favorite mandarin series with her and making rude comments on how stupid the girl is bla bla.

I wish I was at home, going to my favorite pet shop with Dad on a Saturday, and buying lil' fishies for our aquarium :)

I wish I was at home, bullying my lil sister , making her do my chores for me :)

I wish I was at home, going to Sunday church as a family.

I wish I was at home, helping mom in the kitchen, and enjoying mom's cooking.

I wish I was at home, sleeping till late, and mom makes me "brunch".

I wish I was at home, and we as a family pigging out at our favorite restaurants, and shopping like its the end of the world.

I wish ... I was home. [Full stop]

* I know , the reason, why I've been grumpy these few day. I've been in denial, deep down knowing it'll never be the same once I graduate. I know that it is a luxury staying at home. Being with family.

I miss my family.

my LOL moment of the day

You . got . me. tongue. tied.

As you grow up, you realize so many things start changing. From priorities to your set of best buddies.Speaking about priorities, you also start realizing that other people's priorities change too. And the sad part is, it might no longer be you.  

You gotta watch them grow up, moving on to "greener pastures" and you are no longer a necessity , but more like a liability. You'll miss those times you spent together, but I guess you now have to know where your place is. 

In a way , looking at you disgusts me , a feeling I don't know why so. I shouldn't but I can't help it. To me, your irresponsible , immature, etc. 

You know, what goes around comes around. I guess for once in my life, I shouldn't worry about petty things like these.
