To My Heart’s Content.

Okae. It’s 8th May. Nvm the date of the post, couldn’t get it done in time. To do this great day justice, I can’t help but giv a blow by blow account. Woke up to my daily routine at 6am. Warm wishes from my family to start things off. It’s only then when it struck me that I was finally 18, meaning there was a whole new level of freedom out there waiting for me to capitalise on.

While my Dad sent my sis to skool, I had a nice warm shower and proceeded to do whatever it is that I do on schoolday mornings. At 645, I noticed that my Dad still wasnt back like he usually was. By 650, he stil wasn’t back and my mum told me not to go to skool without waiting for him to return. I took it that would probably hurt my father if his son left for skool without wishin him gdbye and all especially since it was my bdae and all. Fair enuff. I juz felt that I should drop him a reminder and msged him. 7am. I had this childhood fear of bad things happenin to my parents and at times like these, they resurfaced again. You may find it kinda stupid but hey, I was pretty anxious and worried. Then… 7.05 and the door creaks open, I immediately halt my frantic pacing in the living rm, awashed with relief to see my dad come in saying he got stuck in a jam. Yeah right. He steps aside and…

Guess who shows up? My fav class peeps, who at that moment, had me gushing with delight and had my heart aglow with the warmth emanating from their sincere and affectionate gesture. Well to be honest, it wasn’t exactly at that exact moment cuz my initial reaction was juz sheer unadulterated shock. But moments later. Anyway we spent the rest of the morning slacking in my hs and snappin a few pix and savouring Sining’s wonderful vanilla champagne cake which had 13 candles on it to symbolize the age of my mental maturity inspite of my my physical age.

Unfortunately, the dour fact that it was a school day brought abt the sad reality of us setting out school at 7.30. We reached at 7.35 hahaz. They insisted I bring this

And shockingly pink as it may be, I have to admit this splendid gift brought much vitality and vibrancy to my day along with many a queer look from the people i passed. But I didn’t mind. I mean look at it. My friends literally put their hearts into it.

Had NAFA today. Dunno whether I count as a 17 or 18 year old. teachers ain’t sure as well. Oh well, it did little to change the fact that I was COMPLETELY outta shape from an unfortunate combination of minor sickness and the fact that I have not been exercisin for a long time. My broad jump deproved, and my 2.4 run nearly ended in tragedy as I was outta breath by Round 1, wheezing by Round 2, Staggering rather than running through the next few rounds and virtually collapsed over the finishing line. It was so tempting to give up but again my absolutely wonderful classmates cheered me on and I did it for them. Barely passing I noe but yeah, it was for them.

Yes them. They who I know are behind me all the way. They who turn my life into one great big PARTaY.

They who have touched me in a way in which I can’t find the right words to say.

They, with whom I’m sure I will share many more memorable and cherished days…

Qj’s Bdae!

Tuition finished late and I had to get my Dad to send me to the MRT station pronto so I could get down to Marina in time to catch up with the bdae boy. Had a great dinner @ Breeks with the Circle of Trust. One cajun blackened fish later, the ever-famished yEL had the brilliant suggestion of supper so we trooped to Macs for sum budget Ice Cream. Dirry Dog was the subject of some unnecessary attention from the counter girl but he took it well. hehe.

Qin Jie undertook the rite of passage into the 18th year of his illustrious life by purchasing his first alcoholic beverage from 7-11s with the other 5 of us proudly watching on. And what’s a good outing without the camwhoring session? The fav pose of the day was the QJ Signature Pose and we really worked those facial muscles in our attempt to imitate it.

Well, it was a great night out with some lovely friends which really made me feel like it was the holz again and soon it was time for us to go and it was yet another emo busride home for me again.. ( pics soon)

Finally Completed My Week’s Exercise Circuit!

Planned this weekly exercise schedule thingy at the start of the year but due to a combination of misfortune, lethargy and sheer laziness, I have never completed it until today! At long last, I went for Dance class on Tues Night, did PE on Thurs, Gymed on Fri and rounded things off with my swimming regime this morn. Feel so alive and fresh, as I always do after a great workout.
