terribly warm day but don't feel like eating ice cream.. i want.. i want.. my rhumba frappe..

had fun at eve's party last night. got to talk and chill with the girls. i lurve them all, honestly. at the end of it, ben sent yc and me home.

in the car, we just played his CD and sang along really loudly.. whether out of tune or the guys adding their own little erm.. "uniqueness" to the song. reminded me of the time bryan and i were singing along to the disney CD on top of our voices in the front seat while fred moaned about his headache in the backseat. you have gotta adore these guys. it's the little things that make me smile and love them even more despite how they manage to antagonize me in school time after time.

anyhoo, it's off to melbourne and sydney for me this december. *fingers crossed* the last time we tried to book a trip there, it was full. we ended up in the surreal winter wonderland of Japan. just thinking of the memories at asakusa, komatsu, shirakaba-go, tateshima, tokyo.. esp the magnificent dinner buffet spread followed by the soak in the hot spring while it was -15 C at night when we stayed ikenotaira at tateshima.. or even the ferris wheel that night at odaiba (biggest in asia!). as much as i'm afraid of heights, i seem to find myself on ferris wheels. the second biggest in asia is the ferris wheel at miramir in taipei. and yes, i've been on that one too.

but it's the sunny oz again. can't remember the last time i went to oz. think i was 14 and it was at perth. gosh. i miss perth terribly. the laidback charming feel of the place comes rushing back as i remember the time in the park surrounded by white swans.

so this time, i'm going back to oz. after 8 years. armed with a better camera and my 1 gb memory card. hope this time, it'll work out and i'll get some time away from Singapore and my friends. as much as i love them, i enjoy times of just one week or slightly more away from them. to get away from that giddy rush of being around them to take a breather. and reflect on the bonds forged in the past year. esp to my dear new friends. and get my thoughts sorted out on two very special friends.


(you two don't know how much you really mean to me. and honestly, neither do i. i need to sort this out with myself first with regards to you both. now's just not the time.)


Christmas party at the end of the year too. thinking of having it on the 30th of Dec. it's a sat. the usual post-christmas-pre-new-year party. CFers, anyone got a house to spare? or a function room at a more central condo? (Simei a bit far arh, eve..) if not, i'll have to think of a way to get my house for all of us. sticky issues at home with regards to christmas lah. you guys shld know. heez.
