My friends say I'm a person who doesn't like to sleep.. HAHA.. which person in the world doesn't like to sleep & nua if given the time & the chance to do so? Hmmm. They are so wrong. I LOVE to zzzzz.
But, it's just that somehow it became a habit to sleep late. & slowly, it turned out that I need minimal sleep but can still feel energetic the next day. It's been like that since hall isn't it? During FOC initiation, while waiting for all the orientation groups to be done and we can proceed to the final station at the pond, my group mates were all dozing away. I was the only one sitting up, stubbornly insisting that if I went to sleep for half an hour, I will end up even more lethargic and restless. HAHA. & I remember that was one of the first few times jw came over to talk to me. Although for awhile only lar. But anyway, my first impression of him wasn't that memorable or great because he seemed like just a playboy senior who likes to talk to gals. Oops. See. First impressions can be so wrong, because, it turns out he's of the best people I know in my entire life.
Still remember those days in hall, we will stay up watching tv, playing mahjong, going out for late nite suppers, have drinking sessions, watch dvds/dramas/play PC games, have talk cock sing song overnight sessions, organize hall BBQs, have bonding sessions blah blah blah. Basically, we lived the life of an owl and spent the daytime sleeping but had endless night time activities. Of coz, not to mention, we would mug overnite when exams drew near and when project deadlines were killing us. See, wif such a lifestyle, I of course learnt to master the art of not sleeping. BUT well, I have concluded that such an unhealthy lifestyle will cause me to grow old at a faster pace than my pals. I will FEEL old and LOOK old, so I'm now trying to regain the sleeping habits of a normal human being.
That said, I just went KTV last nite till 2am when i had to wake up at 7.30am this morning for work. Haha. The lucky huimin and yijia, either worked afternoon shift or didn't nid to work today. =( Unfair. But errrmmmm, I was the one who suggested gg KTV. At 8.30pm. So huimin and I left office and met each other at 9.30pm and before we knew it, we were already inside Kbox, armed with McChickens for our dinner. Keke. & Yippie, I'm finally a Kbox member! Waha. (hmmm, i wonder where did I misplace my Partyworld membership card..it flew away somehow). KTV is such fun. Helped me to destress and cheer up alot. Saw the coroner's report on ishi in the papers today. I dunnoe how it affected me, but i just felt down in the dumps the whole day. & had to work OT till 8plus, so I reckon I needed to do smtg to relive life and gain back my cheerful self. Thanks to yijia and huimin who were so onz to join me. Keke. & yijia actually travelled all the way from bedok after his table tennis tournament, and on the way to marina he had to alight at his house to change bus, and although he hesitated, he still didn't go home and came down to join us. That's the spirit!! Haha. Jiang yi qi people, are the reason why there's eternal friendship.
Anyway, I've been really busy this week getting hotel quotations for our wedding (slated for 26 July), conducting site recces, pouring through and analyzing the proposals, having talks with the hotel pple etc. Real BUSY! & I have to do this in between or after work, so you can imagine how hard I am trying to multi-task. Keke. (oh yeah I am multi-tasking now that's why I can blog!) Have toured Rasa Sentosa, Regent and Swissotel. & gotten quotations from another 6-7 hotels. Hope to finalize the venue next week, since everyone is telling us 26 July is quite a popular & auspicious date. Wish jw was here though. I can imagine all the fun we will have going down to the hotels, visiting the ballrooms, choosing the invitation cards/guestbook designs & wedding favours, having fun bargaining with the sales pple. I really can imagine it. But too bad, we can only communicate through emails/phone now and it's a challenge to articulate all the descriptions of the site recces to him. Keke. But so far so good. Luckily I have the badz gals with me each step of the way. Thanks to Huimin who went to the Style Weddings exhibition with me (the high tea was yummy rite, & daniel ong/jaime teo were so entertaining as the emcees!) & also for doing the Rasa recce wif me. Thanks to Diana for gg to Regent wif me and for being so attentive! (sorry to get us lost, i'm such a map idiot). Thanks to Haz for listening to the Swissotel presentation wif me, and also Huimin, though you arrived only when everything ended. *chuckles* but it's the thought that counts!
You know what, I have just so many ideas in my head and so many things I wanna go about preparing for our wedding. It's simply exhilarating and worth looking forward to!! Hee. Jw and I have already said that we muz enjoy every step of the planning journey. When we finally tie the knot, we will look back with a smile and realise that everything was well worth it. So no matter how tired, how poor, how busy we are, we will make it a smashing celebration. Keke. Hope we can keep the zest and enthusiasm going, I'm sure we can!!
Some things really occur only once in a lifetime.. (ermmm, I hope I only have ONE wedding!) So really muz enjoy it and make the best out of every second. Esp the planning process, because of all the effort and sweat and blood you put in, you will then savour the fruits of your labour to the max. Right??
A FAIRYTALE UNION
That's what I'm going to call our wedding. WOOHOO. I think I can get high without alcohol nowadays. Super elated now. Kekeke. Bubbye. It's FRIDAY!!~
