I'd rather love just a little too muchEvery now and then I get the inspiration to update this space here, and right now the inspiration comes from a movie! Before I touch on that, here's just a little update to fill the spaces in between the last blog post.
I know what you're thinking, it's just another rom-com! But I really enjoyed watching every bit of it, and what really drew me to the movie even more was the movie soundtracks! Just like weidi said, soundtracks sound good on their own, but even better when they are featured in movies because it adds a whole new story line to the song. I liked that something borrowed wasn't that predictable, even at the climax. Okay, I must admit, both of us couldn't stop squealing at colin egglesfield (we are girls, after all). Definitely the cherry on top yes? Shall not do a spoiler over here, go watch it and you'll know what I mean! :)
Firstly, I cant believe how fast 6 months has whizzed past so quickly, and university is starting soon! I am grateful that I've managed to work at a place that is not only convenient, but also blessed with TLs that have been ever so understanding and taking the temps under their wings with such patience. My colleagues are a fun bunch of people that help to ease the mundane-ness of routine. My place is uni is not yet finalised, I'm giving SMU a shot again and I'm leaving the rest to God. I might not be sure where Im headed now, but I do know my future is already in God's hands.
Also, it's J's birthday month! Fortunately, we got to spend more time together this year, which meant a sorta unplanned (pre/present/post) birthday celebration. We ate, and ate,...and ate. Circuit road hawker food, ichiban boshi, swensons' , fatboy,(almost salted caramel), takoyaki, fried icecream, and seafood. Yes, we love food. It's been almost 2 and a half years with him, and I'm ever so thankful for him in my life. Love you dear!
So, today saw Weidi and I on one of our many spontaneous meet-ups, the " hey do you wanna catch a movie/go for drink/ hang out and catch up with each other because I miss you" moment.
We had dinner at hongkong cafe, whose staff actually imagined that we paid $44 for a $24 meal and gave us $20 change for free, which we used it to pay for our movie tickets (we wish). I had a great time with weidi (always do), picking up from where we last left and just talking/hearing about each other's work/personal life.
So....the inspiration behind this post: drumrolls...
