Rain rain go away...

Studying never fails to dulls one's life doesnt it....

So much to do, so little time... Exam time-table is finally out.. get it over and done with in a week. which is good i guess..... but WHY... why must they have it after christmas, where they know perfectly well that no one studies during the christmas holidays... how dumb is that.... -ARGH!!-

everyone at home are in the midst of exams, get to have a stress free holiday period.. sobz.. Chubs just sat his last paper today.. and mine has not even started.. Studying has though but exams are not for another 5 weeks or so..

Haven even started Chirstmas shopping yet.. should really get cracking.

Went to the doctors on thursday (once again, thankz chubs for making me go). Suffered a sprained muscle in my leg, thats why i haven been able to run for the past 2 weeks.. sobz.. was given anti-inflammatory pills. seems to have cleared up.. tried running on the treadmill today, was still a bit tender but getting there. i miss running.. Less den 3 weeks to shape up!!! hee...

16 more days!!

Ice-skating ring and ginormous christmas tree is up on George Square, but with the crap weather that we've been having, who would wanna skate in gale force winds and rain.. =(

Chubs will be away in a few days to Doha, which means i wont get to speak to him as often as i wish. Hate it when he's away. I hope he does well at the games.. says his game has been picking up.. so proud of my Chubs.. muackz... good luck to all the athletes i know who's competing in Doha...

Oh well back to books and notes now i guess.. raining outside as usual with people from downstairs blasting cheezy music.. hall life.. wth.. haha think i cant live without the sun.. rain just depresses me.. and with it getting dark at 4 now, its juz a nightmare.. i miss the sun...

Best Christmas yet???


CHRISTMAS has always been special for me... not only does my birthday fall on it, but it has always been a special day.. For the past 21 years of my life, christmas has always been spent with loved ones, and in Singapore where its nice and warm.

This year, however, I'll be spending it here, in Scotland, in Glasgow. Away from my family, away from my friends... But with another family, my auntie, uncle, grandfather and cousins...

I was somewhat looking forward to a traditional Christmas in Scotland... After having a bad month with my grandfather being sick and all.. I think we will get to see him for Christmas as well =)...

But the best news was yet to come....

to hear Chubs telling me he's coming over to spend Christmas and New Year with me, just made my year complete. The countdown has already begun...

32

MORE DAYS!!!

Spending Christmas with Chubs is one of the best present i could ever ask for.. and to welcome in the new year with him at the Hogmanay Concert at George Square in Glasgow is an added bonus... I'm dead excited.. planning where to go, where to eat.. gosh a month to go.. how cool will it be!! The icing on the cake would really be if we had a white christmas dis year.. tat would be absolutely brilliant...

Thinking of places to go.. Edinburgh to see the castles, of course the old golf course in St Andrews (think i will get slaughtered if i dun take him there), hopefully squeeze in London (fingers crossed baby)...

It'll be nice to have someone to cuddle up too while we countdown into the New YEar in the freezing cold haha...

Turkey, stuffing the whole works gosh I really cant wait... I get to see my baby after so long.. (well not seen him for abt 4 months, long enough).. hee... Everyone here is excited abt him coming over also... it'll be a great experience for him too! Scottish Christmas.. Got my countdown sheet all printed out, blue-tagged onto the wall (i knoe, me kiasu)

We cant stop talking abt it too.. haha everytime we speak, there's always something abt the trip..

The worst worst ultimate worst part is.. EXAMS STARTS AFTER CHRISTMAS!!!! which means i got to study as well while he is here.. sobz...

Yes MUMMY!!.. I knoe i need to study as well.. dun worry i bet u chubs won let me off as well.. =(

What could i ask for more this christmas... Eventhough i wont be home, I'll have someone close to home with me.. *hugs*

Oh and hopefully by the time Chubs gets here we can go ice-skating on George Square.. How nice would tat be... Never skating outdoors before..



Awww i really really really cant wait...

It'll be such a good Christmas and New Year!!!

My grandfather is better than last week... he has been moved back to his own little town now.. but the thing he needs most now is company. sobz.. was hard to say bye to him today.. We know he will be around for a while just dunno how long for.. its like a waiting game... but tats how its like with old ppl innit? Cant wait to see him for Christmas.. eventhough he wont be at the dinner table.. i'm sure he'll be glad to have everyone by his bedside during christmas...

Random post...

I know I've broken my vow in keeping my blog updated... schorrie... =( Just haven had the time and recently the energy to do anything... so just writing a random post, to let u know i'm still alive.... (chubs, i will keep my promise dun worry)....

Back at my auntie's place again for the weekend. At least my dad came to pick me up this time round, dont have to get the bus.. Bus rides are so boring. Will be at the hospital again over the weekend. Brought work to do. need to study.. am so lost with some modules.. gosh they are way harder than i ever though.. jus got to read away...

School work has been piling up, laundry has not been done.. argh.. everything is just falling behind coz i have let it.. i;ve just lost that driving force that i had.. need to get it back and fast.... ahh hai.. wish chubs was here. I jus wan that someone to be beside me, to tell me everything will be okay (eventhough there will be a good chance it will not be).. just to make me feel safe and secure again... sometimes u try to be the most independent person u can be, but at the end of the day, u stil need someone to fall back on... and my someone happens to be miles away.. =( i miss u chubs.... thanxs for re-assuring me. i really needed to know...

i guess i am just in a reminiscing mood.. thinking about things... old things, new things... things to come??

Wonder how long my grandfather will be in this state, one day he can be all fine and dandy, giving u the impression he is getting better... other days he is just not himself. Talking to ppl who arent there, comin up with werid stories, being all confused just so not like him... Its times like tat that makes it hard for us close to him to see him like that.


Dear Key... hope u got my little posti that i tried to sent. not sure if it got there. Coz after writing on the envelope, i realised tat i had to write ur name instead of wad i wrote in the first place!! hee.. so had to squeeze it at the top.. hope it got there safely though.... i've been missing u... =(
