Dear Bloggy,
Ever think back when we're young and ignorant, we tell our best friend "If you want to friend her, you cannot friend me". Sounds familiar? Bet this is like one of the phrases hanging from some kids out there all day long. Whenever we thought that this people is definitely our BFF, both started drifting apart. Maybe there's 101 reason. But how many of them are actually "valid". Yes, there's school, there's work, there's boyfriend/girlfriend, family, cats/dogs and what's not. Who doesn't have those?
How many times have we heard about that "Oh, I'll get back to you" and eventually it never did. And again, on how many occasions, the "Ya! Meet up soon" came out verbally but yet, the meet-up never came. And what's more, how many BFF have you been changing all your life? Maybe 1? 2? 10? But deep down, maybe some realli have one of the BFF that remains as a BFF after 10 long years. How often do you think of this BFF?
You can hang out with this person damn frequently, meet up for everyday during vacations, for anything under the sun from meals to tanning to sports to shopping to gossiping sessions. But one fine day, maybe you'll tend to comment on the things she did which don't please you or you can't accept. And before you knew it, WWIII broke out. BFFs turned their backs against each other, call each other names or even bitch slap one another. Who will in turn remember they used to spend so much time doing activities together? And the next minute, you find someone who you can clique with, your ex-BFF is outta your mind.
Correct me if I'm wrong. I realized guys really have their BFF for long and it can last throughout their life, whereas ladies, not totally out, but less frequent. My conclusion is that guys tend to not bear grudges and they're more easy-going. I envy those that have BFF for long and they know each other's family/pets inside out. I don't even know where my ex-BFF since kindergarten went to, not to mention in contact. And my dad has few BFFs since secondary school and they meet up yearly for gathering!
P.S. That's why people said, as you age, the opportunity cost are your friends. How true. For ladies.

Dear Bloggy,
There's a story I always wanted to share with you guys. About my BF and his doings when he was young. We were talking about pets we reared when we were young.
Me: I reared hamster which I bathed him in warm water, tortoise that dead on CNY day 1 and some fishes which I accidentally killed when I trying to change their water.
BF: Ermmmm, about the same. Got reared hamster and fish before.
Me: U sure u din kill them??
BF: I poked a satay stick into one of the fish's mouth and ran to my brother telling him it's satay!
Me: *faint* So the fish died??
BF: No, I put it back into the tank and it continued swimming
Me: The fish must be thinking "F*** u, let me off" when it was satay-ed.
P.S. Godblessme, I've a sadist for BF!

Dear Bloggy,
Recently, seeing my good good friends going through the pain of break-up really makes me emotional. Nothing is definite, nothing is forever. All of us understands, but how many of us can really handle it well? Unknown. FYI, I sucks at handling such situations and I pray it'll never happen to me again.
But then again, it just open your eyes to the things around you, as well as cherishing the people you love and those that love you. It's never easy. Yes. Especially when someone have been there for quite sometime, his/her presence seems like a "norm" or the things he/her do are already becoming fundamentals. Which legislation says that he must send you home / take care of you when you're sick / pay for your food & movies / buy you the dress you liked so much / lend you a shoulder to lean on when you're tired? No. They're not obliged to do that. The only reason why they do that is due to the love they've for you. To think of it, I kinda learnt it the hard way. I guess that's why me and BF are still in our honeymoon after close of 5 months together.
Hereby, I would like to thanks BF for:
1) Accompanying me for movies which I wanted to watch badly;
2) Bringing me for good food (Though you still owe me quite a bit more =x);
3) Hearing me whine about work;
4) Planning every weekend's outing;
5) Saying silly things and make me laugh when I'm down;
6) Giving me occasional huggies and kisses;
7) Sending me home after every outing;
8) Chatting on the phone with me every night;
9) Giving good night kisses before I sleep;
10) Waking me up in the mornings when I've meetings;
11) Accompanying me for overseas trips to places I wanna go badly;
12) Volunteering to buy me the rabbit plush toy I liked so much;
13) Carrying my "feels-like-weight-lifting" lappie bag;
14) Waiting for me whenever I'm late;
15) Helping me to diao the wawas that I wanted;
16) Giving me surprises during occasions;
17) Sacrificing his sleep to accompany me;
18) Fetching me from work when he's on leave;
19) Bringing me to the doctors when I'm sick;
20) Being there when I needed someone the most.
And of cos the list goes on... Although alot of people said I seems to have amnesia, but every single bit of his doings, will remain within, for the whole of this lifetime.

*P.S. For my Baby Tan, I LOVE YOU! ^^ Bet u haven't hear this since V-day. =D

Dear Bloggy,
I came across an email which I think it made absolute sense. There it goes...
*!~Five Traits A Guy Should Have Before You Get Serious With Him~!*
As it turns out, not necessarily. "We often mistake a strong physical connection as a sign that two people are meant for each other," says Paul Dobransky, MD, founder of womenshappiness.com. Yes, chemistry is key to a lasting bond, but it isn't the final word. Other factors should be considered too, and they take some sussing out. New findings describe the characteristics in a guy that actually predict relationship success, some of which you may be overlooking.
Dating Trait #1: He Knows What He Wants
Any guy you're serious about should be able to articulate his long-term goals and passions (sorry, fantasy football and Xbox don't count). He can't ally himself with you until he has a sense of how he envisions his life in the future... and how you fit in. "If a man has no idea what he wants to be when he 'grows up,' then it will be impossible for him to commit to you," says Dobransky.
Don't assume he'll work things out, because when he does, you may realize his ambitions don't mesh with yours. "This mistake has contributed to the starter-marriage phenomenon, in which couples in their 20s and 30s suddenly realize they're going in different directions and divorce at an early age," says Dobransky. "It's preventable as long as you're both clear about your plans."
Dating Trait #2: He Has a Sunny Outlook
A recent study led by the University of Oregon found that women who had upbeat partners felt more satisfied in their relationships and -- this is huge -- that the man's level of optimism determined the relationship's staying power. Not only is it nice to have someone help you see the silver lining of a situation that totally sucks, but cheerful guys are good at keeping things in perspective, so they don't let little conflicts get to them and can go with the flow.
Along with having an optimistic POV, it's also crucial that the guy you're seeing can make you laugh. "It's an important stress valve for any couple," says Les Parrott, PhD, coauthor of "Trading Places."
"Having a sense of humor helps you weather the rough patches that you'll inevitably encounter together." It shows that he is able to let loose and doesn't take things too seriously. Plus, you'll have a better time together if you can see the funny side of things.
Dating Trait #3: He's Open to Changing for You
It's true you may not be able to change a man, but a guy should want to change for you. If a facet of his behavior irks you (for example, maybe he's not attentive enough in certain circumstances), he should be game to hear you out, listen to how you'd like him to do things differently, and then act on those suggestions. "When a guy is truly in love, he is more self-reflective and will work on the aspects of himself that bother you," says Diana Kirschner, PhD, author of "Love in 90 Days." "Studies have found that successful married couples change each other quite a bit over time."
More important, a man needs to have the capacity to transform and grow with you -- e.g., he takes an interest in going to art galleries with you, even if he's more of a couch-and-ESPN kind of guy. "If he's not willing to expand his interests to mesh with yours, you're going to outpace him," explains Kirschner. "It's likely you'll grow restless, and the relationship will become stale."
Dating Trait #4: He's Still a Little Mysterious
The beginning of a relationship is always exciting because you're just getting to know each other. But even after the newness wears off, it's essential that a man keeps you guessing. "If you can never quite pin down what makes him tick, that's actually a healthy thing," says Kirschner. Although at first you might feel more bonded to a guy who shares tons of personal info with you, over time, you risk losing the intrigue that pulled you to him initially. You might start to see him as more of a friend than a romantic partner.
Of course, you want him to open up about topics like his family, but he should keep some boundaries too. Relating every detail of his life (think updates on his nasty toe fungus) is relationship-killing TMI. A good gauge in the early stages of coupledom: He doesn't spill all about his pals. "It's an indicator that he understands how to keep things private," says Kirschner.
Dating Trait #5: He's Responsible with Money
Besides giving you a heads-up about money-related conflicts you might encounter in the future (one of the topics long-term couples argue about most), how a guy handles cash reveals a lot about his character. Positive signs: He keeps the receipt after paying for a meal, or you notice several credit-card offers in his stack of mail (it may indicate he has good credit).
"A man who doesn't track his money shows a lack of patience and self-control," says Dobransky. "In fact, guys who are financially reckless share many traits with men who cheat." But you also don't want to be with a tightwad. If a dude doesn't splurge now and then, it may mean he'll be stingy in other ways, such as compromising during a fight.

Dear Bloggy,
Life hasn't been the same after working. No more extreme late-nights. No more frequent coffee sessions. No more occasional shopping. No more weekly clubbings. No more "OTOT-meetings" Ahhhhh~ Sucky, isn't it? BF said that his house became a hotel for me. Haha. Will pop by over and sleep for 1 hour before I rush off for the next appointment. =x But at least now I'm no longer under the beck-and-call of the bankers cos we came out with our "little arrangements". Heh. At least I've more time for dates! ^^
Some pictures showing that me and BF are still alive. :)
Mummy kept complaining abt the wawas that we've caught. It's taking all almost all the space on my shelves. BUT I told her, it's alright, I'll make somemore spaces for more wawas, think she almost puked. =X

Dear Bloggy,
We're going to Batam on 17-18 April for spa and shopping!!!!!!!!!!!! How exciting! I always wanted to go there, especially for spa. To think that BF found a package there and it'll by the sea! I almost can't wait anyore~~ Spa itself is already enticing, not forgetting there's shopping and overnight stay! It sounds heavenly~! Not too expensive, about S$140. Which is somewhat similar to a prestige spa place in Singapore, but we're got so much more!
Tahhhhhhhh-Dahhh~!
Yay! And not forgetting there's the 6D5N Taiwan trip in October! *lurve*
