Term 3 Week 6: Ending the weekend (random thoughts)

Wedding
We went down on Friday to check out our photo album design. Not very satisfied with their proposal coz the layout seemed so rigid and normal, so we got them to redo. Guess it will take about another 3 weeks to see version II. Next stop will be to T-dragon to print wedding invitations ba.

Oh did I tell u, we booked out honeymoon to NZ!!! Yes!! Moo moo and hubby are off to see moo moo @ NZ yeah~

Reno
I guess its 90% done. However, we feel that we are rather kind to the ID coz when dear’s frenz came down to visit, they found a lot of defects which we originally didn’t spot or think its alright. But apparently, our QC is too low level. We made a trip down to Sungei Kadut to confirm our bed frame today and also stopped by for some furniture shopping. We were aghast at the workmanship of our very own custom made carpentry vs off-the-rack items. Must be more assertive! Yes! p(^o^)q In addition, we will be also moving in the furniture in September (sch hoLs) Dont worry, will be compiling the house-warming gift list soon! giggle~

Work & colleagues
Work is fine at the moment. This term seems much better to cope. Lots of give and take (of coz not of any of my choice), which I am already quite numb. I cannot resist the changes, and I refuse to embrace the changes, but I’ve yet to learn to fight the changes. One more class, one disciple, less lecture, less form class. I miss the fun time with them, yet I celebrate the less admin work associated with it. More time to prepare work. More time to rot away either.

Colleagues who have left or are leaving, for the greener pasture, I wish them well. Colleagues who are struggling, I feel sad and helpless. Should I help, for what purpose? How will you feel/ embrace the changes when close ones around you are slowly being ‘pushed/pulled’ away? Me? I feel the pain and thus learning to say more “No”.

Friends
I love my friends. I love bear’s friends. Occasional gatherings to celebrate a birthday, baby showers, dinning together to discuss about renovation… Precious quality time that is cherished amidst the busy schedule, something to look forward to, say in the middle of a week. =D

There are a lot of things that our friends are doing for us. We really appreciate the time and advice in helping us in our next chapter of our life. THANK YOU!!!

And at the same time, I really hope that I can also do a lot more for some of my other frenz too. Some recent episodes have brought our friendship(s) to another high pt. I realised how important you both are to me all the while and the role tt i play in ur lives. I celebrate your success and you have my blessings coz I want you to be happy too. I will always be there if you need me.

Hubby
Is always there, the ever-understanding bear opening his big warm arms for a cosy hug. Spent a lazy Saturday together finishing up Forensic Hero II. One of the rare times tt we can just sit down and do nothing but rest. Doing his best to make sure that Miffy has a comfy home to stay in.

Myself
Pampered myself to a foot reflex and a high tea @ Regent. Such indulgence is only meant for once a term/semester I guess. The subsequent guilt is overwhelming even though it was a good afternoon spent with nice people J

Tried to finish work in school so that I can rest more @ home. But somehow, I have been sniffing away for the past few weeks. I feel weaker even though I am getting more rest?? Must be the lack of exercise. But the fatty bum just refuses to move. Or rather the lousy timetable just makes me worn out by every Wednesday. Bad excuse. Must do something about my bad complexion and spoilt nose.

4 more months to be a bride! Not ready at all! Sometimes, I get very excited (once-in-a-lifetime thingy!!!), but other times, I just brush it off (wedding is just a one-day-affair, it’s the marriage life after tt which matters). Guess its just the emo me… I guess once Term 4 slows down when I truly have more free time, I will be hyper by then ba. All the running around settling to-do-list is draining the both of us to the max!
