Valentine’s day 2008.. =)

Finally.. I can celebrate Valentine’s Day peacefully and happily, after going through meetings and God knows what else.

My boyfriend arrived at my home at 7.30 PM.. With that HUGE smile on his face. Hehehehe.

He gave me this rose!

I’m so happy!

And soooo we hailed a cab and went to Suntec City. Initially he wanted to take me to Marche. He knows I love Marche! =P Apparently, Suntec City was very full of couples =P and some freaky people trying to sell roses. Ha.

But then…. Apparently Marche closed down!! =( It really just disappeared. We thought we were in the wrong place, but then we checked the directory.. And no… Marche is not there anymore.. Sigh…

Since Suntec City got many (maybe hundreds of) restaurants, we decided to stay in Suntec City. My eye caught Sizzler. My boyfriend had never been there, but I did, when my very very kind piano teacher treated me and her tenants (which are my friends) to christmas dinner there. I told him it’s nice, so he agreed to go there.

Well, you know.. Suntec City fountain terrace is huge, so we went there, and initially got lost, and finally found the restaurant. While walking along the fountain terrace we actually had a thought to switch to Fish n Co instead, but the queue was….er.. violent. LOL.

Moreover, my boyfriend really likes the ambience of Sizzler that night. They put candles on every table and the lights were kinda dimmed, so yeah

(I juz realize I didn’t take any pictures. I think we were too excited -_-)

We ordered the meal with free unlimited salad from the salad bar. And the salad bar in Sizzler is just goodness. They not only have some vegetables, they also have some meat, some delicious pre-made salad (potato tuna salad!!), a nacho bar, and a pasta bar! Moreover, it offers free ice cream with free sprinklers. So make your own ice cream! (and you can go back and forth again and again and again since it’s unlimited =P)

After that… We went back to my home. And this is the time.. Of unwrapping!

The two presents from my boyfriend =)

Opening the first one and tadah!

It’s a box of Ferrero Rocher. FYI, it’s a box of Ferrero Rocher that he brought to my house when he suddenly popped up that morning and said “I love you” to me. =D Er well.. I rejected him at first =P But now since we’re together, he gave me this box of Ferrero Rocher again =D

The second present..

Hehe.. Wonder what is inside..

So I opened and..

A cute photo frame!
And what’s cuter, the picture inside that frame! It’s my favourite cat picture!!

It’s this one..

And then.. This is the Valentine card..

The content is confidential! =P

And here’s my boyfriend trying to open his present (read : how to make last-minute valentine’s day gift)

He’s blending with the background.. =P

All in all, it was a very pleasant day.
Love you my darling..
Thank’s for the wonderful day. And being the wonderful you =)

Valentine’s Day Down Syndrome

No pun intended.

I know I should be feeling happy and lovey-dovey and all, especially since I’m attached on Valentine’s day, but I really feel kinda sad right now…

It’s just that.. Everything doesn’t turn out as I expected. I haven’t been planning for my Valentine’s day simply because I was too confused on what to do and when I finally decided on something, that plan can’t be executed… =(

I know my boyfriend is planning for me some dinner or some kind, but still.. I feel guilty.. This is a special Valentine for me. I mean, I’ve been attached several times (4 times to be exact) but this time.. It’s really different. I mean, he even took me to see his parents. Ain’t that something? My previous ex-boyfriends only said that they’re going to take our relationship kinda higher but in the end.. Never happened.

And this is the first time that I can spend Valentine’s day away from my parents. I’m not being mean. It’s just that.. I gotta admit that I’m more free. Which means.. I got plenty of opportunities to spend with my boyfriend. My previous relationships have been “back-street” which was kinda fun while having certain limitations.

I know he’s been going so much trouble to plan for something. And, well, you know, it’s the Valentine’s Day. I don’t believe people saying “Why celebrate? Everyday is Valentine’s Day!”. (Seriously, those people must be single.) The Valentine’s Day only happened once a year. And while a year also has so many events to be celebrated (monthversary, anniversary, birthdays), it’s just… Different.

And tomorrow I have a meeting scheduled at 9.30-12.00. And then I have a short piano course from 14.30 to 15.30. And most probably there would be another meeting at 15.30-17.00. See? I can’t get enough time to plan or to buy or to do anything.

Dear my darling,
if you see this,
please know that I feel so bad and guilty and sorry.
And I love you…

Videos.. And a bit of Singapore Botanic Gardens

I can’t help it!!! I’m sorry I’m such a lazy blogger, but hey, a blog is supposed to be where I share things I found interesting (other than my daily life – trust me, it’s boring like hell).

Ok here’s the first one..

This song is too sweet to be true, right? Sweeeeeeeeettt. I’m not going to tell you what film this clip is from. I don’t want to be accused of giving spoiler =P What I can say is that the movie is currently screening in Singapore and you guys should watch it!!!

I’m grateful that I watched that movie right after I watched that sicko Sweeney Todd.

Then the next video..

Hehe. I feel obliged to share this video coz it really helped me a lot.

Bad Day

The title is pretty self-explanatory.

It could have been a better day. Could have been.

It has been very weird and very disheartening instead.

Woke up on 10.30 as usual. Took bath, dressed up, and all that. Stood at bus stop. Here the bus comes! And… I didn’t bring my ez-link. Okay,noprob. Coins it should be.

Arrived at school and.. Dammit.
Where’s the SMU card that used to dangle in my pocket?

Check the bag and… Great. No identity card was brought. That would mean I couldn’t get any visitor’s pass.

So I decided to go home.

The day just started and I already felt very bad.

And I think I need a shrink. Stat.

2nd Monthversary “celebration”

My relationship turned 2 months at 25 January and so we decided to get together and.. just be merry =D

Actually we already talked about this since we were still in holiday at Jakarta. We should buy a cake and eat together, celebrating Christmas, New Year, and our 1st monthversary (that time).

Actually that’s just a lame reason for us to eat a cake together XD

So yeah… This post will have many photos! So please read more to continue..
