And so, I woke up at 9 this morning for my very first anticipated Salsa class. Daniel dropped me off @ Joyclub Dance Academy, TTDI before he left for PJ Live Arts. I was pretty shy and nervous as I was the first to arrive and having no friend to talk to just makes it even more difficult. This is a beginner crash course therefore it is a very very small scale class, just the 2 of us; Me and a man who works as a magistrate.
I was taught some basic steps like kumbia, close body league and simple turn which made me dizzy for a moment when I have to make some spins. Initially, my body was really stiff and I didn't quite get the groove. Plus, the essential close contact I have to make with my partner seems pretty uncomfortable to me. But as soon as I get the hang of it, I stopped looking at my foot while I dance, my hands and legs are in more relaxed positions and I wasn't shy to look at partner straight into his eyes anymore.
To sum it up, I thoroughly enjoy learning Salsa and can't wait for what's in store for me at the next class! Happy Sunday, people! :)

....and then some sisters moment!
.... when my sister's tipsy and a little outta control!
Tonight, serenity is with me and is definitely here to stay. The boyfriend is now working on the track he made especially for me.
I was like................................... *faint* when he told me that he made a song for me and is going to put it in his album. I was completely smitten when I heard that and felt like the happiest girl alive!! Hehehehehehe!!
And I couldn't believe what he just said when he stood up to listen to the song he's making,
"OMG! I AM SO SEXY LAAAAA!!!"
"WHAT?!?!?! Wait.. I am going to put that in my Tweeter *My boyfriend says that he's so sexyyyy*"
"NOOOOOOOOOOO!! DON'T!!!!I mean the song is so sexy and breeezzyyyy laaa...."
Anyways, much has happened lately but let bygones be bygones as I very much do not want to dwell on it anymore but to look forward to breathes of fresh air comes every dawn. Lucky me to have a very supportive boyfriend who is always there for me against all odds and a sister who is always a call away!
2 more weeks to the commencement of my new semester and 1 more week to Chinese New Year which falls on the same day as Valentine's Day :) I understand that many Chinese couples would probably face the dilemma of "How are we going to celebrate V's Day when we have visitings to do on the 1st day of CNY?". So Daniel and I are going to celebrate it someday after when we are all done with the whole CNY Hooo Haaa. To us, everyday is Valentine's Day as long as we are here to stay in each other's arms and are still very much in love :)
3 days ago, I went to buy Dan a Valentine's gift and I was so excited and sure that he WOULD DEFINITELY LOVE IT that I actually GAVE IT TO HIM when he came over to look for me last night. I KNOW RIGHT!!!! I totally SPOILT the whole suspense thing and should have waited for the actual day to give it to him. But knowing me, I always can't wait to give people the gifts they deserved on the day itself just to see the smile on their faces especially when I have bought the present in advance!
But oh well, the boyfriend sure did LOVE what I got him; a Rayban aviator which he has been eyeing on! Now we can go out as Rayban couple! How cool is that?!?! Hiak hiak hiak!! But But... even after I have given it to him, he still DIE DIE wouldn't give the Valentine's gift that he already got me. According to him, it's something that I would like and it's still not complete yet. So I shall wait in suspense now! It's so shitty when he has the upper hand now! Arghhh! Shouldn't have given him the present yet! Bahhhhh~!!!
Anyways, I have vow to make 2010 as a year of change and progression. I have been busy working on a plan that I have been dreaming off. It's not fully ready yet to be unveiled but I can't wait to make it come true as soon as possible
Also, tomorrow I'll be attending my first Salsa class and I am sooooo uber excited about it! I've been wanting to take up Salsa course since 2 years ago but never did try to register myself because I was just not that motivated! Until I met my boyfriend, my perspective on certain things in life has started to change and he is always there to push me forward to try new things! We are actually going to take up the Salsa class together as it would be a very fun and sexy couple activity to do. Sadly, he couldn't make it tomorrow as he has to cast the actors that are coming in for the audition of the musical production that he is working on =( But it's not that daunting after all as I can go there and make a couple of friends on my own!
And tomorrow, I am going to have brunch with Arthur! He is leaving to Melbourne in...10 days! Can't imagine the bucket of tears that I am going to shed at the airport =(! Okay, it's 2.30am already!! Gonna sleep now and maybe bug the boyfriend to go to bed as well as we have to wake up pretty early tomorrow! Till then! x-

Good Kids Visiting Google
Somewhere in the month of October 2009, I participated in the college's activity; Google Visit in Singapore. It wasn't much of the curiosity of learning more about Google but to have a fun time with my friends! But the trip to Google was a letdown because I was expecting the office to be as cool as the one that people have been talking about; the one in The States. But I guess it's still worth a visit though as I learned quite a bit about Google and the staffs are really friendly people :)

Entering the month of February, looking back, I have never regretted or would utter a word of how my holidays are put to waste or being unnecessarily unproductive. As soon as my semester break took off, I worked hard enough *and maybe party a little hard too! :)* and accepted as many freelance jobs that I have been offered even though it drained the hell out of me. I always think that a 22 year old girl like me should never put time to waste and earn as much as possible while my bones are still strong enough to lift weights. I am now at the prime age of exploring how big the world is, see things the way I've never thought I would back then, looking through the past and making bucks on my own.
But as much as I would love to think that being an independent individual at this age would make that very person whom I love and care wholeheartedly to stop worrying so much of me or maybe...just maybe... would do the same in return or do her part to make everyone's life a little less miserable.
Honestly speaking, 2010 has kicked off pretty well for me until recently, a series of unfortunate events unfolded. Advices have fallen into deaf ears, efforts are thrown into drains and history has unavoidably repeated itself. Sometimes no matter how concrete or solid a wall is, it would eventually wear off as time goes by or be destroyed for whatever reasons it could be. Giving up is not a choice or an alternative for me when I am being plunged into a situation when my emotions are greatly affected by that very one person. It feels like as though I can only be freely to love and to experience happiness only and only if she allows herself to.
I too realize that my life has been hanging like a thread. I could only wish and pray that maybe one day, she would strip herself off from the myriads of chains of torments that she has been unwillingly to unbound herself from. Maybe that someday would come, maybe that someday is just days away or...perhaps..years away... or maybe that someday would never come at all. But still, here I am, waiting and will always be..for the almost impossible to happen.
This is a very much delayed birthday post! Last year was the year where I had the most superb birthday celebrations! One was the ultimate surprise party thrown by the boyfriend and the other was a joint birthday celebration with my sister (our birthdays are only 10 days apart, so why not?).
Years before my 21st, I was one of em' who was so eager to turn 21. Apparently, you ought to receive the KEY when you are 21; More freedom, Legal to go to the casino without the "if i dress more mature and wear higher heels, they'll prolly let me in thinking", more lenient parental control. But what really lies beneath the meaning of 21 is that you are more matured and grown up now to comprehend and handle situations like a big man. Do things less hastily than you were in the past and to think with your head not your dick ;)
Well, in a nutshell, turning 21 doesn't seem that awesome after all, especially when you have another number added to your age. But oh well, I had a great birthday party with my beloved ones and that is what that matters most!
My 21st Birthday Bash in the School of 60's
I had a 60's theme, hence the dressing styles. It was a night of many cheers coupled with hours of karaoke session and fun filled laughter with friends, family and the significant other :)
Elaine bought us this furry handcuff and put it on both me and Daniel. We walked around, attached to one another for half an hour and only this find out that we can actually take it off without a KEY! Lol
