Maybe, I'll find answers soon....

Somewhere last year, I wrote a blog about how I met my Hubby... How I was hurt by someone, someone who, I trusted so much... Someone who was once my best buddy... Someone who has seen through me.... Someone who could anticipate my every action... This someone is none other than HS....

We started off as strangers who barely spoke to each other.... Then, as acquaintances... Proceeded on to being good friends, best buddies and then, an item... It only last 5 months... In that 5 months, so much happened, so much so that it quite tainted the friendship we had. I tried to rekindle that friendship. But, I can't bring myself to.

Some things which were said... If said straight to my face, I could still take it but, it was said to someone else... I hated that... That hurts more than the truth said in front of me... I tried to forget it all but I just couldn't... Forgiveness has been granted but I am just unable to forget.... But, hey! I do not bear any grudges toward him, just not able to rekindle back the friendship we shared, no matter how precious it is....

Through HS, I got to know a lady... A lady who used to be my rival. But, by the twist of fate, we became friends.. She is back with HS and as a friend, I respect her decision... I wish her happiness and I do hope that HS will not take her love for granted... She has done so much for him...

I erased all memories I had with HS... Every thing... The Tiffany & Co. bracelet.... The Compaq laptop... All the pics.... hard copies as well as soft copies... deleted his number from my mobile, his email address from my mailbox and even via MSN.... Every single thing...

I moved on about a year ago and I found my real happiness with Hubby and I do not wish to keep any of that past with me...

I will only acknowledge HS as my friend's 2nd half... Not as someone who used to be mine, not my best buddy, nor was he my friend in the 1st place....

To my friend....
I am very glad that he has made you happy, esp on your special day...
And, I really hope that both of you will stay together till death do you part...

Pimples....

People always commented to me...

"You have such a smooth complexion..."

Well, I have a pimple now which is soooo irritating me....

Arrgghhhh!
It's on the left temple, near my eye....

Can you see it?
Look carefully...
It's there...

I wish it'd go away....

Holiday is over....

Today is the last of my leave... Will be going back to work tomorrow. I am sure that there're some outstanding work awaiting me in the office tomorrow.

Well, after playing "nurse" the past few days, and since my lil' adik is also recovering... my hubby n I decided to go out and dragged adik along to breathe some fresh air... If there is still any in the ever polluted place here in Singapore.

Went to Simei, East Point cos both hubby and adik wanted to check out the new shop: www.christoys.com. We have seen the banner almost every other day from inside the train each time it stops at Simei MRT station. Well, much to our disappoinment, the shop is not as huge as the banner. It is only a small shop with not much of a variety to speak of.

We ended up at Starbucks with 2 Mocha Frappucino and 1 Java Chip Frappucino plus a Bananarama Muffin. After which, we moved over to the "Take 5-Old Chang Kee" for dinner. Then, of course, back home for the following reasons:

1. Adik is recuperating. Thus, no late nights out.
2. I am starting work tomorrow and need a good night's rest.
3. We need to bring dinner back for Mother.

So, here we all are... at home, resting....

Alhamdulillah....

Alhamdulillah!

For the benefit of all non-Muslim readers... "Alhamdulillah" is a word of gratitude to Allah.

I have been reading the news on the Net on the Myanmar Cyclone Nargis and the Earthquake in China. So many died, so many casualties, so many lost their family, lost their homes. They are plagued with diseases, hunger and thirst.

Ain't we grateful that we could go home to a shelter above our heads, no matter how small our home is... The comfort of a home, together with out family...

Ain't we grateful that even with the rising cost of living, even with the rising prices of the essential food supplies, we are still able to come home to see food laid down on the dining table.

Ain't we grateful that we are still able to go shopping at shopping malls, to go for a cup of mochae frappucino at Starbucks, all the luxury we are enjoying here in Singapore?

We should be grateful...

I am calling out to all.... Let us all do our part in contributing to the people who needs is more than ourselves. Let's all kill the selfishness is ourselves and contribute sincerely to the Myanmar Cyclone Nargis Appeal and the China Earthquake Appeal...

It ain't the amount but the thought that matters...

Can I have your address?

Heheh!

I tumbled upon a blog of a friend... She is in the midst of distributing her invitation cards for her wedding....

It is only a month away from her wedding and in the blog, there are some of those which she not intentionally missed, but had to be missed out as she is unable to find them or their address.

Hmmm....

Should I start to collate all my contact lists with all the addresses from now on??? So, that when the day comes, I would not have missed anyone....

Maybe I SHOULD.....

Soooo Hoooottt!

I've been going out in the morning the past few days, despite the fact that I am on LEAVE.... Errands to run... Been a chaperone, a nurse as well as a health inspector for my Adik who is recovering from a very very bad flu.

The weather is killing me... It has been so hot that I end up with a migraine after while in the sun. I had to shower like more than 3 times cos of the humid weather... It makes me so lazy to go out even to buy food.

I miss the rain....

Sick, sick and sick...

My lil' baby adik, Eizzy has fallen prey to a very bad viral flu... Well, caused by Adik's own stubbornness (sorry, adikku... I have to put this here), the fever prolonged to almost a week. Mother got so worried and we both (plus hubby too!), rushed Adik straight to CGH, A&E. Adik was already "brrrrr-ing" and burning hot at the same time.

At CGH (A&E) once more... (just visited that place as a patient myself abt 3 months ago). Service is slow as ever. We reached the A&E before midnight and guess what time we reached home? almost 3 am....

We went to see this Malay doctor (maybe new to the hospital), Let me recall his name.... Hmm! I think it''s Zul-something... never mind. I truly pity him cos' Adik vomitted in the sink in his room. Yucks! I wonder if the room was stinking... Anyway, he wouldn't take any chance, He took a blood sample from Adik. Can see that he's not good at it. Cos' Adik complained that it was so painful. I had my blood taken so many times. Alhamdulillah, they were all good and versed.

OK, the blood test results were out in abt one hour. Adik was given a room to rest while me, mother and hubby waited outside. So pitiful, hubby had to sleep, sitting on the hard seats.

Well, Adik had no blisters on her hands, feet and mount so HFMD is out. But, the platelets in her blood is low. So, another possibility is dengue...

The funny thing is, Adik wasn't warded. Adik was only asked to come back in 2 days for another blood test to see if it will drop further.

Hospitals... All the experience I had in hospitals... Only 1 deduction.... Either they love drawing blood or drawing $$ from the patients. Well, they're the smart ones who'd be able to find out what is wrong with the patient....

So, Adik has been staying home, mainly cos' Adik's sick, heheh! I just love to tease Adik about this... Else, you won't see Adik at home but at Al-Kadir. Sorry, Adik...

Anyway, the fever still have not subsided. I gave my team building session a miss cos' I was worried that the fever will persist further and we need to bring Adik back to the hospital. Mother is already tired after working 6 days and had to even take care of her grandchildren (from my kakak) yesterday as she was not in town. So, hopefully, Adik would recover soon....

Adik, we all love you and would do anything to help you recover... If you read this, this is my advice....

Please take care of yourself... Try not to keep too many late nights out. I used to be like you too... But, I realise that my body is not as strong as I thought it used to be. It will break down for sure if you decide to push it further.... And, remember, I did remind you on this? It reallly did break down on you. You need to build up your resistence again...

Please, my dear... don't worry mother again... She loves you too much, remember that....

Dear Friends...

I have not been hanging out a lot these days....
I have not been meeting my dearest friends a lot these days...
I have been a lil' more homely these days...

I hope that my dearest friends do not think otherwise of me....
Cos' I am trying to change my lifestyle...
I am trying to lessen my late nights out...
Making sure I eat properly...
Ever since the last stay in the hospital...

Well, dearest friends, still... You are not forgotten...
You are still kept in my heart...
I love you all....

It ain't in pink, as much as I would love it to be...
It's in "BLACK"...

For Putri...

Her birthday is on 17 June...

But, because it is the holidays, my sister thought of getting a cake to share with her "nursery class".
I suggested something else...
"Why not give away mini donuts? Customised with her name on it?"

So....
There goes....

Hope she loves it!!!

Oh, by the way...
The donuts were ordered from Kak Rita, PrettyPastries....

Thank you, Kak Rita!
For obliging me even though I know you are truly busy this weekend....

If Love is Blind....

I was in my eye treatment session when I received a SMS from a friend. The SMS does not sound good.

I wish I could be there to tell her that everything is gonna be alrite... I really wish I could...

She keeps telling me that she is gonna be ok. No matter how, I know she can evade the issue on the outside... However, deep in her heart, I know what she is going through....

Hurt again by the same guy, upteen times...

Babe, I have to admit that initially, I was not so agreeable with you going back to him but I respected your decision to be with him cos' I knew how much you love him...

But, one last time, babe.... Do you really think he is worth all this hurt??? I hope you'll pull through this once again... And, this time, to really find your happiness which deem fit for you....
