bluer than blue

I am missing him so much. =(

wedding woes

Today, I received a wedding invitation from a good friend. While going over it, I got to think of my upcoming wedding and.....

...... tan-ta-ran-tan....

Panic attacks came!

Is this the right thing to do?
Is he really the one?
Why am I doing this?
Am I ready?
Oh my goodness...I'm going to live with a boy!

So, I sat down, took deep breaths, and called up my lovey. Unfortunately, he didn't pick up. Like what I always say, LDRs (long distance relationships) really really suck. He's probably busy at work, while here I am lying down on my bed on a Friday night.

I think I'll just go out tonight. Hmmm....maybe I can check out Alchemy, a ten-minute walk from my house.

And here's praying that I get rid of these attacks. I'm getting stressed out again thinking of the wedding because I'm here and he's there. I hate LDRs =(

crazy little thing called family

I got home from work around 9 pm, feeling hungry and so tired. I dressed up, cooked dinner (the infamous pasta again!) as requested by my sister, and finally, I was ready to sit down and relax with my yummy yoghurt!

But like what I always say...my family is crazy...and my brothers really enjoy playing practical jokes on me.

Aaaarggh...

They better behave on my wedding!

cooking 101

This lazy Sunday, I made my first official attempt at cooking. Got to be prepared for I will be a wife soon =)

The last time I spent hours in the kitchen was in the 90's (hahaha...God, I'm old), when I'd help my mom with the cooking, or do some cooking myself. Then college came along, then work. And now, it's like I'm starting from scratch. Well here are the pictures!

I burned the hash browns and uhmm...they didn't look like hash browns. I think I put them in the fryer too soon. But the pasta was perfect! It's such a simple recipe, I know. Small steps.... =)

My siblings loved it and that's all that matters. =)

of engineers and rockstars

As I was cleaning out my closet, I came across all my old CDs....and many copies of a certain album that used to have a special place in my heart. Popping the CD in my laptop, I took a ride down memory lane - looking back at the experiences I have been through, the band, the vocalist, and the music.

It's funny because now that I think about it, there is some sort of consistency when we choose the people we want to partner with. The vocalist took up some Engineering too. And my Sweetcorn is one of the best Engineers in this lifetime. The vocalist - obviously was in a band. My Sweetcorn plays the piano sooo well. You have to listen to him play. He's so good. I'm so proud. =)

And so...what does this mean? My love for music is evident for I choose to be with people who share the same passion with me. Now, I have no explanation for the Engineering side. I have recently acquired a growing interest and appreciation for buildings and structures mainly because I like to project an image that I know everything about them. Especially when I talk to Sweetcorn. Hahaha.

When I listened to the album, and took that reminiscing road, I can't help but smile. God has His reasons why things happen. It's all in His plan. I thank Him for my life. And I thank Him in advance for my life ahead with Sweetcorn.

Oh, and I thank Him too for music. I'm singing a different tune now. And I'm the happiest I've ever been.
