zomgthisissoghei

How do i know her?

i met her through one of my ex boyfriend[s], the previous one.
She messaged me through friendster on one of the random rainy/sunshiney day[s] but i don't remember much of what she said.
what i do remember was, that she told me she's allergic to prawns too.

Oh speaking of PRAWNS i burst out in rashes during dinner at some ~~dimdum~~ dim sum restaurant in P.J...and it was the worst dim sum ever.
refer to my blog for the boyfriend's critic ♥Clicky Here♥ to pop by my bloggu!

she's a camwhore,a very hyperactive person, sexy ~~pornstarrrrr~~ in her own ways and
she looks very angelic on the outside but wait till you get to know her..ahem :D i shall leave this for the people who don't know her to find out.

we've been friends for like 4 yrs?

maybe more.

She's been through alot and so have i-but we both stick up for each other like two balls attached and we dangle left, right, up, down and all around through good and bad.

Back from the Snow!

2008-08-18T17:32:00.005+09:30

Jacqui is back from Falls Creek.

the painful 13hour drive back seemed forever. i guess out of all 5 people in the car, i was the most comfy, having Dion as my pillow and footrest :D

i'll blog about my ski trip a little later.

first things first, Pixie my new camera deserves a welcome.

say Hello to Pixie. she's a petite Point&Shoot Canon Digital IXUS 80 IS.

she blends in with my bedsheet LOL.

and looks TINY next to Stallion.

i decided to get Pixie as she would be easier to tag along with me to events. light-weighted, i could easily fit her into my pocket!

Pixie's first photo :D

Dion and I celebrated our official 4th month anniversary on the snowy mountains on Saturday. nothing special, just skiing down the white powdery slopes enjoying each other's company.

When you have to look away
When you dont have much to say
Thats when I love you
I love you, just that way

To hear you stumble when you speak
Or see you walk with two left feet
Thats when I love you
I love you, endlessly

And when your mad cuz you lost a game
Forget I'm waiting in the rain
Baby i love you, I love you anyway

So when you turn to hide your eyes
Cause the movie it made you cry
Thats when I love you
I love you a little more each time

And when you cant quite match your clothes
Or when you laugh at your own jokes
Thats when I love you
I love you, more than you'll know

And when you forget that we had a date
Or that look that you get when you show up late
Baby I love you,
I love you anyway

Heres my promise made tonight
You can count on me for life
Thats when i love you
When nothing you do can change my mind

The more I learn, The more I love
The more my heart cant get enough
Thats when I love you, When I love you
No matter what.

Happy 4th month Anniversary Bum!! <3>

So Much to Blog, so Little Bytes.

2008-08-13T12:21:00.002+09:30

no, my blog hasn't gone to hibernating-mode.

apparently my internet quota is 0% now. darn those bytes! darn them!

i have/had so much to blog about, not many things happened though, just some photos taken from the past week or so.

no pictures uploaded this time as they're all in my lappie. just a brief update of what's going on.

again, i'm blogging from the law school computer suite. just got out of my Torts lecture, it was about Defamation. le sigh, if only we could sue some people who slander for no apparent reason. but it is pointless as they aren't a 'deep-pocket' source. blah de blah 'tis an interesting chapter :D

i really regret enrolling for Law of Contracts 2, due to the new revised curriculum it is not a compulsory subject which means i have the choice of enrolling in other law electives instead. BLAST! the seminars are a torture, with no offence to the tutor- i feel that i'm not learning anything. oh well the only advantage is that we don't have Exams! we are assessed based on research work and assignments.

waiting for Bronwen to get out of class so we could go grab a cuppa Chocolate at the Chocolate Bean or something. i miss that chicca! she has a horse and a pony, Pi and Immy. how awesome is that!

AND...i've got my new camera: Pixie! she's a gorgeous little Point&Shoot from the Canon Ixus range. i realised that SLRs have their cons: they're monstrous! can't bring them to hip events.

i am SO looking forward to travelling with the boyfriend's family to Falls Creek, Victoria tomorrow! can't wait to get out of South Australia. guess this is my last shot to enjoy the end of the season while it's still cold: SNOW!! SKIING!! hot chocolate by the fire, reading my favourite book, (i reckon i'll bring Polgara the Sorceress) and snuggling up with Dion.

driving up to Victoria would be such fun! 12hours on the road. all the chatty-watty in the car would make the journey seem a lot shorter.

i miss skiing. wonder if i still remembered how to ski (Tropical Girl here okay, no snow in Malaysia - some of my friends don't believe that lol). i've never been on a chair-lift! hope i don't roll down the hill, or worse...

...end up like this poor dude in the viddy.

Boredom Strikes

2008-08-07T21:27:00.003+09:30

this is the 12th consecutive (almost) hour i'm staring at my computer screen with no apparent task to do.

YES, i am quite free. i don't have classes on Thursdays and Fridays.

i might be taking up another degree to fill my time with, but no decision is made just YET. probably taking up Behavioral Science or Psychology or Music IF they have such combination. *crosses fingers* then me and Dr Dion Lin can graduate together!!!

been feeling quite low these few days, having the same nightmares every night. but i got everything sorted out with that special someone today, got everything off my chest. things are alright now, and i hope it stays the same way. no more nightmares for me, hopefully.

last Saturday was another quiet Saturday night :) Bum and i cuddled up and watched Dexter! and did some camwhoring, hip-hop style.

pretty lame yet fun pics.

i look forward to the boys' Poker, Pool and Olympics night tomorrow!

Of PubCrawls and Pancake Cravings

2008-08-04T13:20:00.000+09:30

it was a peaceful and quiet Friday night until...

Bum and I decided to go for the Med School PubCrawl!!

the Dent School PubCrawl and Lincoln College PubCrawl was on as well, but since Arne's from med school so perhaps he'd have more friends at the Med School PubCrawl.

Arne camwhoring with me before the PubCrawl ;)

many people didn't turn up for the event, i got abit bored and had this sudden Pancake cravings.

i absolutely LOVE the pancakes from The Pancake Kitchen on Hindley St.

the best part is, they're open 24/7!!!

lots of funny memories there:

me, Steph and Joey once went there at 5am because we couldn't sleep! watched the sunrise from the place.
brought all my books and laptop to discuss the Australian Constitution with Andy.
had a hangover once at about 5-6am and puked all over the floor. how disgraceful. shh!

these yummy pancakes got me drooooooooooling~

AND, there's a pancakes promotion on Tuesdays 3-6pm:

ALL YOU CAN EAT PANCAKES FOR JUST $6!!!

i like pancakes... i like pancakes...

pancakes makes a happy Jacqui :)

Amateur SLR Flora Shots

2008-08-01T18:25:00.000+09:30

here's a few amateur shots of some plants i took with my new Nikon D80.

i love taking close up photos of plants somehow.

i think they're pretty awesome, don't know what the professionals think though.

hope to improve in some ways :)

shot taken from some cherry(?) tree in Arne's backyard, sometime end of summer.

cherry(?) shrubs, taken at Mt Lofty Botanic Gardens.

did some research and i THINK this is a lavender bush. photo taken at Victor Harbor.

err.....some random plant in Arne's frontyard ;)

APPLE TREE!! (we don't have apple trees in Malaysia)

Unnecessary Censorhip : Come and Play!

2008-07-30T21:57:00.000+09:30

Sesame Street's innocent but watch out for the unnecessary censorship!

makes you think otherwise ;D

Winter Holidays!

2008-07-29T14:21:00.000+09:30

i'm.............BACK to blogging!

exams ended early July. i remember being really traumatized (tis my first university exam!) due to not being able to finish ALL THREE exam papers on time- i swear i had all the answers in my head, blame my slow type-writer handwriting.

post exams Adelaide chillaxing: went to a few parties with a coupla friends. stayed over at the boyfriend's parents' house, purring hissing scratching around with the kitties, had a mini movie marathon with Arne, and...

a surprise mini birthday dinner for moi! teehee.

THEN i went back to Malaysia sometime mid-July when the boyfriend was in London-Prague.

felt really happy seeing my family again. there was this "Welcome Home, We Love You" poster on the door dedicated to me. emptied my bags of the souvenirs i bought:

CHOCOLATE-WINE-CHOCOLATE-LOLLIES-CHOCOLATE-
SHIRTS-CHOCOLATE-LIQUOR-CHOCOLATE-JENNY'S PURPLE
THING-CHOCOLATE!!

Mamma and a few other friends were shocked at how much weight i've gained. LOLaaahh! at least i'm happyhappychappy ;)

me and Dad travelled interstate to Pahang to help grandma plant some new rubber trees in the plantation. twas very tiring, but i had fun fun fun!

grandma picking out the rubber tree seedlings.

Dad and grandma transporting the seedlings ala Olde Fashion.

the view of the rubber estate.

soon after, i had a nice cooling shower and Dad dropped me in KL.

felt really bad i wasn't able to make it for the ASSes gathering as i made earlier plans to hit Euphoria with the girls.

FWALLAH HOW I MISSED MY HOTTIES WHEN I WAS AWAY DOWN UNDER!!!

the crowd turn out in the club was mediocre, probably due to the expensive entrance fee. the music was energetic and sexy! mostly club spins from the Ministry of Sound album (that's what the club's named after!). the sound quality was superb!

we didn't stay long at Euphoria, but we had tons of fun ;) had drive-thru Macca's over and slept over with Mandy at Lin's.

the next day me and Mandy went to One Utama to meet up with Jenny and her boyfriend. i also met up with Marilynn whom i haven't seen for over 5 years already! she'll be my housemate next year, and hangout buddy / vainpot accomplice blah de blah.

didn't do much shopping in Malaysia though. all i bought was loadsa bras and lingerie (no pictures will be posted).

stayed over at Jenny's and watched Ugly Betty with her all day long until Arne reached KL and had his uncle's driver pick me up. felt so happy seeing him again, it's been a torturous 12days we were half the globe apart! Arne and i had a whole "5-Star-Resort" room to ourselves at his uncles "Palace" at Bangsar Hills.

Arne's cousins are the cutest sweetest children i've ever met! so adorable i tell you.

this is Junyi. cheeky little hyper boy.

and CUDDS!! omg "i want roti canai!! ee-ai-ee-ai-oh!".

Arne treated all of us to The Dark Knight - Gold Class yo!!! had fun clowning around the cinema.

my Mr. Photogenic.

i brought the boyfriend back to Malacca for a few days!

didn't take many pictures together as i had the random camera-shyness for awhile.

Arne had satay celup! don't LOL me as it was my first time having that too! Malaccan girl, tsk.

my rockstar with my guitar :D

for our anniversary celebration, we went to Olio for some "Italian comfort food" which turned out not so very comforting after all.

lovely riverside. lovely by night, not so lovely by day.

brought Arne to uncle Don's music studio to meddle around a little :)

time flies when you're having fun. i had to return to RooLand for the new semester. my results were quite surprising as i did pretty well in my exams! Thank God.

and.......i had a haircut! dyed it light brown. not so obvious in photos, but pretty orangey in person. the long-awaited photos are finally out! there, feast your eyes on this haystack Andrew.

Arne's mom went to pick up the kitties first thing in the morning when we reached Adelaide. OH MY! how much they've grown.

it's been 3 days since i left Malaysia and i'm missing home already. they say you "can't have too much, nor too little", before i left for Australia i didn't appreciate what i had at Home- the nice comfort and security being around family members, warm sunny weather and nice cheap food etc as i had "TOO MUCH" of it, i was in Malaysia too long...didn't really appreciate the time i had with my family and friends; now that i'm back Down Under, i realised i had "TOO LITTLE"- too little time spent with my loved ones back Home. i do wonder if what i just said actually made sense, no?

this is Prince William, my little soldier my Bum bought for me in Londie. he protects my room from naughty imps and cheeky goblins.

so, BEWARE.

handbag of glory

2008-06-08T00:42:00.001+09:30

AMEN. :)

My Love

2008-05-30T13:04:00.000+09:30

w-w-w-who's that cute little cheeky pie?

who grew up......

......to be the love of my life?

it's my Dion / Arnie / DarLin / D-Arn Lin!!

yes yes, he loves to give me THAT curious stare.

or the look-i'm-so-pretty stare.

this boy follows me wherever i go......

from Uni...... (okay FINE, this time i followed him)

......to Hahndorf......

......to Melbourne. (Kuala Lumpur and Malacca this July! London, Paris in December please?)

he has his "la poseur" moments...

la poseur me love!

he's also a cat lover.

yes yes i mean it, he LOVES cats.

he's VERY good at playing pool. (i'm still taking lessons from him)

...and never fails to charm me with his acoustic guitar skills. he writes the cutest songs!

we have our romantic moments...

"Korean love series" moments...

playing dead and me trying to save him. lol.

he loves goofing around. (notice where the water is 'shooting' from?)

playing gay chicken with Joel (it's too real!)

rupturing Joel's s3-s4. tsk.

he has the cutest laugh when he's happy. *pinch!*

AH! i love him... and the best part is...

...knowing that he loves me too :)

and i couldn't be more happy!

Med Ball 2008

2008-05-23T13:44:00.000+09:30

MedBall on Saturday Night was a blast!

thanks D-Arn for getting me the tickets before they ran out.

i still remember you were trying to convince me to go to MedBall when i was indecisive. Yours truly was kinda stuck between LawBall and MedBall at that time since they're on the same darned day! Guess i made my decision when you bought me the tickets without telling me. You......you......are so sweet :)

HELL YEAH i made the right decision! don't really know anyone from law school who went for LawBall though, but all the darlings went for MedBall!

Themed "Alice in Wonderland", i dressed up as the Queen of Hearts!

Before the ball, D and i camwhored aLOT since i couldn't bring my dear Stallion SLR with me.

be prepared for a round of crazy pictures!

it started off with some decent shots:

we 'tried' to look sexy:

then he started it:

he tried to chew my 'heart'!

we serenaded...

GASP! a camera!

and finally, a close up shot. my favourite :)

ENOUGH CAMWHORING!

we went to Ash's place at North Adelaide for the pre-ball drinks. i love his house! so cosy looking. (still, nothing beats D-Arn's family house!)

played pool and had some (yucky) Bacardi with Coke. it was fun getting everyone together before the ball.

it was raining kittens and puppies when we reached the Convention Centre, plus it is end of autumn, imagine how cold it was! luckily most of us didn't get wet.

i was so happy to see all my darlings there!!

us posing before entering the dining hall. tsk!

Affy and Amanda got drenched :(

this is so cute, our wine glasses had "drink me" attached to them and "eat me" cards beside every plate!

i love the music the jazz band was playing, and the dim purple pink and blue lightings - this is kinda like my ideal ball!

Affy the sexy kitten. so so seductive, purr~

i pulled her tail! (notice that she actually HAS a tail)

the guys doing their best to imitate Affy's sexy claw ;) and i was just the extra person here.

we girls doing our sexy poses for the camera.

sexy silhouette :D

Rebecca! ever so bubbly and friendly. loved her instantly when i first met her!

with Amanda and her to-die-for 'longkangs', and Thuy-My! looking so elegant.

Keith Koh! i call him KiKo.

YiHan! one of the friendliest and nicest guys i know :)

the Queen of Hearts and her knights?

Tim was the luckiest guy that night.

whilst this picture was taken, i was actually shouting "d**chebag" and Tim was shouting "wh*re!". our dirty little nicknames for each other, tsk.

Amanda and i are close................

............well maybe i little TOO close.

babe and i had a good time on the dancefloor that night ;)

the Ball ended with JT being massively drunk, he got sick and err...vomitted on the floor. some of it splashed onto me and Amanda's feet. we washed it off immediately! D-Arn was there to help him, and got his sleeves stained with vomit as a result. (babe you're such a good friend, which is why i love you more and more each day!)

i left for the afterparty with a few friends while D-Arn stayed back to make sure JT got home safely, it was so cold and raining and he didn't have his blazer with him (he took it off and gave it to me because i was cold and didn't have a jacket). i was really touched by his actions.

babe joined me at the afterparty at 6ix later and we had quite a good time on the dancefloor :)

we didn't stay for long as we were both so tired. went home, cuddled up and watched TV with some hot chocolate.

me love you long time D-Arn Lin!

Stomping Melbourne

2008-05-14T13:08:00.000+09:30

here are some pics taken in Melbourne not so very long ago.

the photos are all not in sequence, they're all jumbled up and yours truly is too lazy to rearrange them.

apologies :)

so here's what my cousin's camera captured me and some friends doing:

CLUBBING

5 hours before leaving for the airport to fly back to Adelaide, we went clubbing @ EVE.

it was really nice meeting up with Jason after a few years and his oh so crazy but stunning girlfriend Cashreyn, and Janice!

"don't mess with my man..."

cousin Jo!!!

us on the dancefloor, before it became SO SO SO crowded we couldn't even make our way to the loo.

DINING!

D-Arn treated me and Jo to a lovely lovely YUMMY dinner by the river @ Southgate.

few days later we went to Docklands! glorious FOOD. i had grilled kangaroo again :D

CHOCOLATE!!

Max Brenner, best chocolatier EVER!

no other shop can satisfy my chocolate apetite anymore, i tell you :)

been craving for my italian milk choc EVERYDAY when i was in Melby.

CRAZY-ING!!!

babe on the steps @ Federation Square.

my favourite pic. SUPER MARIO!

FIRE! outside Crown casino.

babe has a Greek restaurant named after him, WOOT!

Affy concentrating HARRRD.

my babe is so darned good at pool. (and a good instructor too!)

OH NUUUUUU! ballsey got low low low low low low low...

daym, this woman is good at bowling.

later at night we went to QV apartments. met Arum and Steph there.

the stuff that made her smile :D

my hero sucks at Guitar Hero HAH!

we played some "dare" game, me and Joel had to scream "FXXK YOU 14-02!" apparently the ppl on the 14th floor like pouring soap water down the balcony. EWW!

hey thats MY boyfriend Joel you beeyatch! your gay chicken is TOO real!

tralala.......

YES i know i look like a fatty bum. (i've put on 11kg since June 2007 YO!)

Joel Lee is so fat.

Johnny's birthday dinner at Lygon!

hahaha actually i'm rushing for class now.

that's roughly what i did in Melbourne and it was

HEAPS FUN!!!

Welcome home kitties!

2008-05-13T14:48:00.000+09:30

It has been more than 2 months since i last blogged.

my dear Sony Cybershot broke, and in mourning its return to Malaysia to be repaired and awaiting the arrival of a new camera.....

i refused to blog.

okay that was really lame.

SO, i got my new Nikon D80 Stallion!!

(thank you so much Daddayyy!)

we got new kittens!

adorable darling Russian Blues.

say hello to Siew Mai. she's just as attractive as the delicacy itself.

she hates to cuddle up with girls, but always finds comfort on D-Arn's lap. (hey he's MY boyfriend!)

this is Rasputin. (notice that the goldfish is looking at the camera as well!)

named after the late Russian mystic, on the contrary, he's real loving and cuddly wuddly. i love it when he snuggles up with me while i watch TV on the couch.

"whatcha looking at?"

them darlings on the couch.

random candid picture of D-Arn. HAHAHA i love this poser to bits!

touchdown!

2008-02-20T00:13:00.000+10:30

i have reached the land Down Under!

this is an outdated post, i was just so busy adapting and settling down (and having fun, poof!)

when me and Derek arrived at Adelaide, we went straight to Terence's house in Carrington St. his housemates were so nice and hospitable, i felt so much at home there. Terry was out having his exams, so me and Derek chilled around his place. when Terry got back i ran straight into his arms and had the best hug i had in months!

Saturday was Terry's housemate, Chok Fung's birthday! a few of us drove down to Thorndon Park, Campbelltown for a delicious barbecue. T-A-S-T-E-Y is the word! imagine, the sweet juicy taste of BBQ and honey flavored chicken wings, marinated overnight, grilled minced kangaroo meat (i know they are adorable, and tastey too!), grilled beef steak and lamb shoulder, baked fish in foil, beef and pork sausages. GOSH!

meet Hong Gunn! i called him Chef Gusteau (see the resemblance?), our dear chef for the day. me and Derek took over later on. such fun!

later on we took a walk in the park. the weather was so sunny yet cooling, we just HAD to take some pictures.

the girls and the guys getting cosy and cuddly!

our dear birthday girl, spoiled with Love.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

few days later, Terry brought me and Derek to Glenelg Beach! it was so cold i was jumping around like a kangaroo. the chilly wind was so strong my teeth were chattering! had to hug them lucky boys tightly to keep myself warm.

seagulls! some girl was chasing the birdies away (i cropped her annoying figure out from the picture, teehee..)

the sun set went 'plop' down the horizon like an egg yolk. lol!

this girl is enjoying the view of the sunset! with a grumbling tummy at 8.30pm.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

one fine day, Yong Hwee and Julia brought us to Hahndorf, a German village 45mins drive away from the city.

this is a non-Halal post. if you are Muslim please don't mind the following pictures.

this is 1kg of grilled pork-ribs. the BEST i ever had! after eating this glorious platter, NOTHING can ever satisfy my appetite. YUM!

the German Platter we ordered. (psst JEN! i still miss your mamma's BIG FAT JUICY GERMAN SAUSAGES that's OOZING with mustard! -inside joke)

the Jacqui Attack aftermath.

later on, Yong Hwee and Julia decided to get some coffee while me Terry and Derek walked a further 1km to the Beerenberg Strawberry Farm!

pick all you can eat for $3!

the happy girl with the red juicy fruits.

she drowned in a sea of strawberry trees!

the smile and the reason to smile! :)

i think i ate about 1kg of strawberries. WOOH!

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

on Friday Night, Julia the hyper clubbing queen dragged Derek to go CLUBBING!

being a clubbing virgin, Derek had no idea what to wear. after a few hours of shopping at Rundle Mall, we found a gorgeous shirt for him. he broke his glasses, which was a good thing because he looked better without them. (btw, he cant see without his glasses!)

Derek looks so cheeky here! gosh the innocence went POOF.

me, Derek and Ivan. funny guy, so cute and anime-like.

meet my housemates! - Yi Wern, Yong Hwee and Any.

the next day we had to wake up early. Yong Hwee invited me and Derek to Glenelg Beach for a picnic with her classmates! it was pure fun.

candid shot. i was in my own world drowned in music and thoughts.

that night was Derek's last night in Adelaide, so we decided to have a scrumptious meal. we headed to Hog's Breath at Chinatown for dinner.

the rib-fanatic before digging in to her SECOND plate of ribs. hoho!

kissing my dinner :D

my camera is busted! goodbye dear Cybershot..... :( i sent it back to Malaysia with Derek to be repaired. sigh. all the more i have to save up for my DSLR now! somebody please hypnotize me to dislike shopping.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

TODAY! i went to the Botanic Gardens with my new gang of friends whom i love very much. we're all from different courses- Law, Mathematical Science, Psychology, Architecture, Arts, Media and International Studies, and Petroleum Geoscience.

we skipped orientation and scooted to Woolworth's to get our picnic stuff. we got some cheap baguettes to feed the hungry ducks and birds at the park!

hah hah! i think my hands legs and feet pretty much spoiled the pictures.

the ladies under the big shady oak tree.

us, lazing around before the Night Life Tour.

Adelaide is a beautiful place. pretty peaceful and safe. my current obsession is jogging alone in the city :)

here's a picture of my room. it has the view of the state library and arts museum, and King Edward the 7th's big statue staring right at me when i open the windows.

in case you were wondering what i got for Valentine's Day, here goes! :

BOXES IN BLUE!

the lovely pink heart is a farewell gift from Derek; and the lovely teddy bear is from Terry! (his name is Xiong which means Bear in direct translation)

wow what a long post. there, i updated my blog!

LOVE.

where art thou Leo?

dearest Leo,

it's been 23 days since i last saw you. you were sleeping on the garden chairs, so serene, so peaceful.

Mummy Daddy and Angie miss you. i miss you.

things aren't the same at home without you.

i wait at the patio everyday, your favourite SmartHeart food still fresh in that porcelain bowl. i wait by the door every evening, hoping you'd be there to greet me.

you were always there for me, a great friend and companion. you cheer me up by cuddling and purring at my feet. i couldn't ask for a better friend. although sometimes i never appreciated your love, you were so happy to see me but i put you in the washing machine instead. you didn't come home for a week, but eventually you did, because i know you still love me no matter what. i even poured cold water on you while you were having your nap, and yet you were still there for me. when i was studying for my exams, you kept me company and cheered me by sitting on my window-sill all night. i never got the chance to show you how much i appreciated you.

i am sorry i smacked you for peeing on the pantry. you merely wanted my attention.

i am sorry i shaved off your fur when you bit me. i didn't understand feline language.

i am sorry i bit you when you scratched me. i thought it's the only way to communicate with you.

i am sorry i wasn't a very good owner. you were more than just a pet to me.

i don't even know if you're alive now. and you won't be able to read this, nor understand the emotional pain i'm going through.

please come back, Leo. or at least, give me a chance to say goodbye.

i love you.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

i dreamt about you last night. i opened the kitchen door and there you were!

i couldn't be more happy, i carried you in my arms and hugged you TIGHT.

..........and then you disappeared.

i guess you came back to say Goodbye.

i'll see you when i get there, fuzzball.

BOOM baby!

new blog...

new beginning.

i know this post is so outdated. i was trying to get the hang of Blogger. (okay okay i admit it, i was procrastinating all this while.)

so, why the new blog? Xanga was being a b*tch. and also, since 2008 marks the year i become a University student, and i will be moving out of the house very soon (and out of the country), i should blog less bimbotic (there, i said it!)than my previous blog that i am not so very proud of. i should be more mature in thought now, since the past 7 months of holiday has made my brain turn sluggish, making it unable to function properly. smack my head and i'll only duck 5 seconds later!

i learned to live. i learned to love the journey, not the destination.

i learned to be happy. and think of life as a terminal illness, because if you do, you will live it with joy and passion as it ought to be lived.

i learned that it is not a dress rehearsal, and that today is the only guarantee you get.
