A bit wacky, you're very difficult to predict. One moment you're in your own little happy universe... And the next, you're on a bad trip to your own personal hell!
You see life as simple, and simple is a very good thing. You're cheerful and upbeat, taking everything as it comes. And you decide not to worry, even when things look bad. You figure there's just so many great things to look forward to.
You're definitely in a low place right now, but you also know deep down that you can get out of your funk. Take a chance and make a new friend or try a new interest. Shaking things up will give you the self-esteem boost you need!
Verse 1- Everybody look at me, me I walk in the door you start screaming Come on everybody what chu here for?

Hunni was being an annoying irritant yesterday.>_<
At Nishi for example, he kept "back-chatting" to me! I can't think of any other way to describe, but it was all very tongue-in-cheek!
When I got my knickers in a knot and couldn't take it no more, I confronted him.I asked him, "What's your problem??" and "Do you like annoying me??"
Then he candidly replied, "I like to see you go ape-shit".Okay, so I can't really quote him cos I can't even remember what he said, but I heard something like that…
Strangely though, I felt a sense of fulfilment.
Yes, I am one oddity.
*Shrugs*I suppose it's because I never felt such "love-hate" sensations rushing within me!I wanted to slap him, yet smooch him at the same time (yes, cocky bastard.. :P).ROFLZ and it kinda felt good! =D
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
We fretted around to numerous travel agents for our Companion Fare only to be slapped with bad news after bad news - NO SEATS. ARGHHHH, the frustration! I find it totally inconceivable that we are quoted prices that are no longer available for purchase. What a total disappointment. Couldn't they see that we wanted to do their business and stuff cash in their hands??!
Our intentions were not empty, but they treated us like fools...
Each and every place (excluding Flight Centre) told us about the glorious Companion Fare. Joytours offered us the lowest price so we headed to Northbridge to purchase our tickets. Then on the freeway, babe was like, "I wonder how much Bonadventure would be". I rolled my eyes and suggested that we head over and ask (EVEN though I had asked him numerous times to do so before)...
In the end, they proved to be the most trust worthy. The lady informed us that there were no seats available for the times we need to go. The earliest available was on th 13th November, but that's wayyy too early for us, so was no good. None of the other travel agents bothered to inform us such when we asked the week before or even the day before! POOOOEYYY!!!! So we missed out on the stupid Companion Fare. Wish they didn't even tell us about it... Got me all excited that we were getting a cheapo deal, but now we're left with a hole bigger than our pockets can handle...
Tickets are now gonna be 1000 buckeroooos. *sob*
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Called BCH earlier to let them know that I couldn't make it this arvo. I received the shock of my life. She pretty much told me off for cancelling and asked me, "Isn't this community service field where you want to go into?". I mean, come on, I am only a volunteer?? *sigh* Whatever, I'm over it...

Babe and I are going to book our holiday today!!! Absolutely ecstatic about it now that it's coming so quickly!!
Now all I gotta do is some HARDCORE saving $$$$$$ - which ultimately means: being frugal, tight, self-denying, stingy, self-restraining, prudent, and NOT wasteful, extravagant, reckless or self-indulgent.
*sigh*
I still want those jeans... and those cons... and... and...
*double sigh*
I suppose I can wait...
Today was an ideal day. A perfect day. After 8 hours plus of beauty sleep, I woke up energised with an exceptionally positive mood. I suppose this coloured the rest of my day bright yellow and happy because...
1. I decided not to purchase those library books (was sent an invoice of some $70 from the City of Canning after claiming those 6 books as my property for over two, three months!), and finally dragged my ass to Riverton to returned them. All the while, my head swarmed with excuses the whole drive and walk there, till I reached the counter... with a slight look of guilt and a "Ohhh these are overdue... I'm so hopeless, my mum reckons I shouldn't borrow from the library cos I'm always late!!" quote from myself to the lovely librarian, who appeared even more guilty when she informed me of my $12 fine!! HAHAHA As I said, honesty is always the best policy and luckily for me, I had a nice lady!! 2. Babe's Mum, babe and I ended up yearning for some Nishi only to arrive there with the bad news from an apologetic waitress "Sorry the kitchen's closed..." Yeah, I thought, that'll be right.. it is 2.30pm already... so our next option was Yummy BBQ for some $70 dim sum... Is that exp from 3 people??? 3. Went to Kardinya shopping centre to collect Mauritius brochures and to get quotes for KL with little Kelly. Her behaviour has definately improved. She is much more easier to handle now that she's over the I-want-this-I-want-that tanty mode and just plain clever for a little multi-lingual 5 year old!! Thank goodness for kindergarten!! And Flight Centre is such a gold-digging agent! They were the only place who failed to mention that there was a special "Companion Fare" out now for $550 to $590 plus $200 something taxes... Flight Centre quoted us at least $880 and that was the total excluding taxes!!! pFFFFftttt!! We're definately going to purchase from Joytours or Jetset who were smart and honest enough to tell us the offer! 4. Babe dropped me off to work cos the Flight Centre attendant took ages to give us a quote and I would've been late for work had I driven myself... I suppose I should've be thankful??! XD 5. Fretted for a good ten minutes because I couldn't call through to babe... I stressed that I would've had to wait in the city for however long till he were to realise that I needed to be picked up... BUT babe surprised me back with a phone call at 8.15pm... He had already arrived and was waiting for me out the front of Rydges... AWWWWWW How sweet!!! 6. Had steam boat at babe's 9th aunty's restaurant with a bunch of his reles... Highlights: Met Cherry and Paul's baby son for the first time!! He was soooooo cute! He's gonna be one handsome boy when he grows up - he's eurasian!!! :D; Babe boiling me an egg; Eating one huge momma fried ice cream - it was so big, I couldn't even finish it!!! It was such an AWW-MAH-GAWD moment!!; Making babe walk me to the outdoor toilet and finding him outside waiting for me to finish (didn't expect that!!) *Awww* :)) 7. Played a good half and hour worth of competitive PING-PONG with a cocky hunni... Good entertainment babe, and you know what??!! He actually "tried" to play with me... even though I sucked at Pinging Ponging and all! *Double Awww* ;D
I had a 10/10 day!! Happy meter = 100%!! Thanks babe!! XD
Logged on to MSN tonight and found a wicked link from Andrew! Check it out! My favourites are the batman...
and the gold detector!
OOOOO If only I could fall into a gold ditch!!

Wait Him Out...
He's not ready for marriage yet - but someday he probably will be. It's really your call to decide if he's worth the wait. If you've been dating briefly, he may just need to know you better. But if you've been seeing him for a while, he might be taking his sweet time.
How to get him to commit: Play the field. If you've been dating more than six months (a year if you're under 24), then you two should be very serious. No ring on your finger? It's time to meet other guys. If he wants to keep you, he'll get more serious about you.
Maybe you haven't known each other long... And that's why he's acting a bit sketchy But if you've been together for a few months, Then you've got to let him go. Because he's not looking to put a ring on your finger - ever. This guy's not going to change for you, or any other woman.
You're a pretty sweet person, and you're definitely not prone to bitchy outbursts. Sometimes, though, you can't help thinking mean thoughts about people. But at least you don't act on them!

Stole this from Sophia's blog - I couldn't resist as soon as I heard the song and listened to its lyrics. It's beautiful... :)
If I'm not in love with you What is this I'm going through Tonight
And if my heart is lying then What should I believe in Why do I go crazy Every time I think about you, baby Why else do I want you like I do If I'm not in love with you
And if I don't need your touch Why do I miss you so much Tonight
If it's just infatuation then Why is my heart aching To hold you forever Give a part of me I thought I’d never Give again to someone I could lose If I'm not in love with you
Why in every fantasy Do I feel your arms embracing me Lovers lost in sweet desire Why in dreams do I surrender Lying with you baby Someone help explain this feeling Someone tell me
If I'm not in love with you What is this I'm going through Tonight
And if my heart is lying then what should I believe in Why do I go crazy Every time I think about you baby Why else do I want you like I do If I'm not in love with you

Information
Unhappiness in relationships, according to Dr. Gary Chapman, is often due to the fact that we speak different love languages. Sometimes we don't understand our partner's requirements, or even our own. We all have a "love tank" that needs to be filled in order for us to express love to others, but there are different means by which our tank can be filled, and there are different ways that we can express love to others.
Mags told me to read this week's STM's starwatch... After analysing hers, I read mine...
"Leo July 24 - August 23 It's wonderful to be vulnerable. Only robots are devoid of emotion. If you are going to have feelings of any kind, you have to have them of every kind. It is not possible to pick and mix from some inner smorgasbord. In the world of the heart, the service is 'a la carte'. You do have a choice - but not a choice about 'how you feel'.You simply get to choose how you feel about how you feel. There's a significant difference . You can, for example, even feel good now about feeling not so good! You can also do something good about a situation that's less than ideal. But first you must conquer your fear of seeming weak."
I was superly freaked out, cos as I was talking to her I advised her the exact same thing. I said to her that I have been trying not to see things, situations or people at their worst, but rather to see the brighter side of things and to lighten up. Even when things, situations or people are negative, I try to not blow it all out of proportion and to take a step back before I have an outburst. So really, I'm not sure what my outburst last night to hunni was about... I suppose I am PMSing and just wanted a lil bit of TLC before I went to bed. I felt that I had a lot on my mind, yet I didn't feel that he bothered to take the time out to speak to me while he was out with his friends.
Back to the horoscope thingy, I'm unsure about the comment "conquering my fear of seeming weak..." Hrmmmm....
Yesterday I woke up to a message from Chrissy Jie to get together. After a phone call she headed over and waited for me to get ready. Whilst I was in the shower, I had a mega blood nose!! OMG! That would've been like my 3rd blood nose in my entire life!!! I was so shocked and when I tried to blow it out, it sprayed all over the tiles!!! EWWWWW Gross, I know!!! :\ Then I spent the rest of my shower with my head back cos it was dripping non-stop!!! Christine reckons I picked my nose while I was sleeping, but I reckon it was cos I was getting all heaty, sore throat and all anyways, so it must've been a sign that my body was telling me to take caution!!
Chrissy Jie and I went to Subiaco to pick up her dress from one of the stores in the Colonade. The dress was casual yet classy! Looked fab on her - even with her jeans!! Nice touch girl!! Funny thing was, the sales assistant looked soooo familiar! Turned out that she ate at Jimmy's restaurant the week before with her bf who I used to work with in Burswood (he was a bar guy)!! I thought it was so unpretentious of her to come up to me and ask me first!! I guess not all Colonade staff are stuck up and rude then!! She was far from it and was such a sweet presence, especially with her white cardi, white ribbon in her hair and her red spectacles!!! ;P
...And then we quickly dropped by May's shop, Delixir and I purchased a few discounted earrings and this from the shop next to hers, The Pagoda Tree!!!!!
Isn't it OH SO adorable??! I got one for babe and one for myself - I just couldn't resist!!! They're like lil woollen voodoo (not literally!) dolls!!! I love the colours! Made me sooooo *happi happi*!
Pity: That I had to rush to work at 3.30pm so we couldn't meet up with Maggies in the city... We thought she sounded pissed when she said, "Are you for realllllllll?" LOL But later she told me she was actually with someone at the time so she didn't want that person to feel like she was ditching them to meet up with us anyways... something like that lahhh!
We had a bit more time after we didn't have to rush to the city to meet Mags for a late lunch so we headed to Sicilian for some lunch special and the Tortellini was delish!!!!! Must go back there again one day!
Later at BCH, the kids went crazy as if they were competing for attention and/or testing their power with the new Activ8 guy, Chris and I. At first I felt a stab of betrayal cos they didn't hire me, but then I didn't want to stay on to look after those kids anyway cos: 1. I'm not qualified as a youth worker, 2. It's very tiring trying to think of interesting activities for the kids - I'm just not that energetic! BUT, the new guy was fabulous. He was gentle, yet firm when need be and he was energetic and fun! He definately suits the position and the kids are lucky to have him! :)
I'm contemplating leaving after a few more weeks because BCH doesn't need me anymore and I can't help but feel like they are abusing my labour, even though I am the one volunteering... It just feels like they want me to to stay but don't realise how hard I am working else where cos I need the moolahhh. Then I question myself when I say such things, cos then why the hell am I in this sector if I am not happy to volunteer several hours of my time a week?????? UrgHHhh...
Work was alright. I was feeling all good until I did one of those consecutive sneezes type of thing that I'm famous for, and then I felt crapolaaaaa. =( Think I'm on the verge of a biggggg sickieee...
Left work with several missed calls and messages - some from my cousin asking me to go out and some from Mags asking me what a "resume" was called in Chinese!! LOL of course I had no idea so I was of no help at all! Gave her a call back and ended up talking for over 2 hours!!! That was fun!!! :P Us girls are motor-mouths!
OHHhhh I was supposed to meet up with Kathy and Som today... But didn't hear from her so I presume it's okay or that they've got other plans...
Anyway, might go and vaccum my room or do something productive before I have to head off to work agains. Aiii, the life of working like a dog... hehe jkz, it really isn't so bad!!! :)
...From the interesting people to restocking sugars (LOL)...
The following are captions on this brand of sugar sachets. This has got to be one of the smartest marketing ploys ever!! It has sucked me in and it definately brought a smile to my face, even if I was having an "exceptionally bad day" HE HE HE ;D
"At least something's sweet today..."
"Today feel like a worse version of yesterday?"
"With your luck, it's probably salt..."
"Black cat walk across your path?"
"Open an umbrella in a room?"

Kewl or what, ah?? ;P
My babe singing... to me!!! ;P
05/08/06 We were heading to Sasikan's 21st birthday in Subi Hotel, but was told that everyone had dispersed to other clubs so we went to Base for Jon Lim's birthday, but everyone had gone too!!!! Mehhh Ahhh wells!
Babe + Andrew + Jack + Mikey
Me + Babe! I luv this photo cos the backdrop looks wicked and I have my very own "Superman" next to me!!! =P
Later we went to Dom and Sophia's place, watched Eyes Wide Shut, and indulged in some beer, Subway, and Cheezels together!!
This time I accepted and as I peered into the bag, I got the SHOCK of my life!!! It wasn't Tiffany, but it was something pink - possibly a shirt???!! A little disappointed, I can't remember whether I even said it aloud, but I remember thinking, "You got me a pink cloth??!" and then I pulled it out and was STILL confused as to what it was, but saw a huge B on this pink looking cloth... Then finally it hit me, he got me a BURBERRY SCARF!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ROFLZ It was so funny, cos I swear I totally did not expect him to 1. Purchase me something branded, 2. Purchase me a scarf, and 3. I was seriously misled, because I thought he had brought me a Tiffany bracelet or something!!!
Well, I sure was surprised babe! And I do love it! It's even reversible too!! Wowwww!!
Thankyou hunni bunni!!!!! It was very sweet and thoughtful of you!!! *CuDdLeZ* XD
Then I went home and couldn't stop thinking about what he could have gotten me. Kat and I went through a list of things he couldn't get here and needed to get from overseas... We settled on something branded but she persisted me to ask him to give me a clue. So I did, and he said, "It's something you can wear.." Automatically I assumed he must've brought me jewellery. Better yet, something Tiffany!!!!!!!! I mean he wouldn't purchase me clothes and really, what else can you wear??????
What does this bag hint to you??
A couple of nights after my birthday, babe finally told me he got my present. As he was about to hand it over to me, he was like, "Here babe, Happy birthday... Oh but I haven't written in your card yet..." After waiting for so long already, I told him not to give it to me until he wrote in my card...
Two minutes later, I couldn't control myself so I decided to have a peek at the bag... And yes, it was this lovely Fossil bag, and I thought to myself, "Awww he brought me a watch - not just any watch, but a Fossil watch!! He must've brought me a matching one as his... Awww that's thoughtful of him... even though I dun really wear watches as much nowadays and I'm not into those leather band type watches as he is... I hope he didn't get me a brown band..." ladiladidahhh So all those thoughts ran through my head and I decided that I was content with his surprise because he had put so much thought into it and it was such a sweet gesture - a matching watch!!
Little did I know, that it could've been something else, so when he said, "Don't you wanna know what I got you???" I was like, "*giggles* welllll before after you were about to pass me the bag, I kinda peeked at it, and I think I know what you got me *gushes*" Then babe was like, "hahhahaha well, what do you think it is??" and I was like, "Ohhh a Fossil watch!!!" In amidst his laughs he blabbed to me that he was just reusing the bag from his fossil watch, but the present was anything but a Fossil watch!! ROFLZ!!!!!
Last week at work I saw this Asian lady who looked just like Adzzie! Well, how I think Adzzie would look like when she ages... Freaky or what?? The resemblences were so similar - petite face, same eye shapes, same nose and same smile!! She even had the Singaporean accent going on!! Then I remember nudging Jimmy and whispering to him my discovery... and he was like... "Ohhh, yeah... kinda" hehehehe
Last night while I was needing some TLC from my babe, he paid ZILCH attention to me whilst we were talking on the phone!! We ended up having an sms war and he didn't even reply my last message - that poohead. =( HRPMH... 死性不改 ... Will give myself some TLC...

I love this blog! Sandy is a fantastic blogger and I find everything she has to say is elegantly expressed with much wisdom, truth and heart to it. Her writings inspire me to write better too, though I know I will never reach her level - I am wayyyyyyy too casual and lazy! Such a gifted and beautiful person she is! Aww I wish I was articulate!;P
From her latest post titled, "RESTLESS HEARTS AND MINDS ARE MOVING ON", here is an extract of her words of wisdoms...
1. Happiness needn't come at someone else's expense.
2. An issue is only as significant as the attention you give it.
3. If you get on the freeway before 7:05am, it's heaps quick to get to the city.
4. It's not the games you lose that you regret; it's the games you don't play.
5. Some people don't really care about your problems, but do care lots about you. These people are always very nice to talk to. :)
The 3 of us!
Adzzie & I!
Close up!
Adzzie & Gwen!
Adzzie was superly duperly amazed that Perth has a Gucci store!!!
LESSONS EVERY WOMEN MUST KNOW!!! and Learn...
If a man wants you, NOTHING can keep him away. If he doesn't want you, NOTHING can make him stay. STOP making excuses for a man and his behaviour. Allow your intuition (or spirit) to save you from heartache.
STOP trying to change yourselves for a relationship that's not meant to be.
Slower is better. Never live your life for a man before you find what makes you truly happy.
If a relationship ends because the man was not treating you as you deserve, then heck no; you can't "be friends." A friend wouldn't mistreat a friend.DON'T SETTLE!
If you feel like he is stringing you along, THEN HE PROBABLY IS.........HELLO!
Don't stay because you think "it will get better." You'll be mad at yourself a year (or more) later for staying when things are "not better".
The only person you can control in a relationship is YOU.
Avoid men who've got a bunch of children by a bunch of different women. He didn't marry them when he got them pregnant, Why would he treat you any differently?
Always have your own set of friends separate from his. Maintain boundaries in how a guy treats you. If something bothers you, speak up.
Never let a man know everything. He will use it against you later.
You cannot change a man's behaviour. Change comes from within.
Don't EVER make him feel he is more important than you are... even if he has more education or in a better job. Do not make him into a quasi-god.He is a man, nothing more nothing less.
Never let a man define who you are.
Never borrow someone else's man. Oh Lord! If he cheated with you,he'll cheat on you. A man will only treat you the way you ALLOW (did I sayALLOW)him to treat you.
All men are NOT dogs.
You should not be the one doing all the bending.... COMPROMISE IS A TWO WAY STREET.
You need time to heal between relationships...there is nothing cute about baggage... deal with your issues before pursuing a new relationship.
You should never look for someone to COMPLETE you ...... a relationship consists of two WHOLE individuals...look for someone complimentary...not supplementary.
Dating is fun...even if he doesn't turn out to be Mr. Right.
MAKE HIM MISS YOU! Sometimes ...... when a man always knows where you are; and you're always ready available to him, he takes it for granted.
Never move into his mother's house.
Never co-sign for a man.(Hallelujah, thank you Jesus!)
Don't fully commit to a man who doesn't give you everything that you need. Keep him in your radar but get to know others.
Share this with other ladies..... You'll make someone SMILE, another RETHINK her choices, and another woman PREPARE.
They say it takes a minute to find a special person, an hour to appreciate them, a day to love them and an entire lifetime to forget them.
Luv, Leh Miin x
WOW. I've been really busy! Hustling and bustling here and there. I'm exhausted! Not to mention on the verge of developing a sore throat and in need of some T I M E O U T!!!
A brief update:
Rydges has been improving. Peoples are getting nicer, work is actually not bad (some customers are great to talk to!)
Working with babe is also good. I am thoroughly enjoying it... *hopes that I dun jinx myself!!*
I am working hard, yet I still feel broke!! But I finally paid off my credit card!! YIPPEEE! Three cheers for me! ;P
My weekly catch ups with Kat has been wonderful! She has been my life support as of late... I can't thank her enough! She is such a doll - Love her to bits!
For some reason, I've been having Tuesday-itis cos I've already missed two weeks worth of Tuesday classes, that is, my financial unit!! =| EEEEEKKKKKKK! Gotta get my act together!!
Catch up with Adzzie and Gwen was a noice time - always a pleasure to chit chat with them!!
Been camping at my Aunty's place - I feel like I have two homes now! ;P
Brought 3 jackets from Dotti - Kat and my plan didn't work for a refund then a repurchase so ended up with 2 - which was the best for me anyhow!! Don't feel bad babe, that sales lady was a total BIATCH, I wouldn't have brought it back off her anyways!! Mental note: Must write a letter praising how great the other sales girl is!
Just upgraded my 3G phone from daggy old LG U8110 to wickedly stylish and modern, Sony Ericsson K800i!! OoOOo you seXxy thing!!
Mustang Bar with Simon Says last night. Getting "responsibly drunk" is always fun! Good times with my cuz.
Still owing Riverton some books - dammnit... must drive past the library today!
Definitely missing my two angels - Christine and Margaret - in urgent need of catch ups!!
Babe and I are A-Okay, good good! Finally, some relief... =D
Was flicking through this week's STM and stumbled across an article about "What Men Want".
I thought it was a lovely little eye opener as it offered the opinions of a range of men.
One of my fave questions was,
What do you want from a relationship?
These were some of the replies...
"All I want out of my relationship is happiness. From it, I expect support, trust and truthfulness." - John Steffensen - 23, WAIS athlete, dual Commonwealth Games gold medalist (400m, 4 x 400m relay)
"I want balance and someone you're equal with. I want someone who hangs out with your friends and can have a life with you as well as their own life." - Nathan Morris - 30, Nova 93.7 breakfast presenter
"I want a partnership. Someone to share all aspects of life with, from love to business." - Jason Petkovic - 33, Perth Glory goalkeeper
"I have a personal space requirement as well as a partnership requirement, so that I'm not smothered. I also want a happy environment in my relationship." - Roberto Pierucci - 49, designer "I'm very blessed to have everything I want in my relationship - love, trust, understanding and baked goods. Being with the person you love and being accepted 100 per cent, no matter how you look or what you say, feeling supported and being able to let it all hang out and still get a kiss on the mouth is everything you can ask for." - David Genat - 26, male supermodel
"I want loyalty, trust, friendship, mutual respect, excitement, fun, passion and sexual fulfillment. I also want a confidante." - Malcom Day - 41, managing director of adultshop.com and director of the Breast Cancer Foundation of WA
But I still can't get over how great this article was, so I shall post the questions for further probing and analysis!! ;P
1. What do you want from a relationship?
2. What do you want from your career?
3. What do you want from your life?
4. What do you expect from world leaders?
5. What do you treasure?
6. What scares you?
7. What are your favourite pastimes?
8. What do you think of fatherhood?
9. What's the biggest misconception about men?
10. What have you learnt about women?
Yeps, I expect some answers boys!!! Go get your bfs and hubbys to do it girls!!! YES, babe, and I would like you to have a think about these questions too!! I'm gonna ask you about it later!! *wink*

pic of this!!!! It was named after babe!! Maybe it was made
just for him?! hauhauauhauhauhauhua GOSH I am such a
loser!! HAHAHA
Babe dropped me off to the city and we had some Takas before he walked me to work. Aww! :)
I finished work at 8pm and babe came to pick me up.
We went to Villa Italia, corner of Aberdeen and William Street for dinner. A selection of their pastas was $11.95 (Mondays to Thursdays??) so we chose some Tortellini pasta, a Fettituni dish, some Bruschetta and two lemon ice teas! And I must add that the pasta was actually very nice!!! Must go back there next time to try the other pastas!
After dinner we were going to look for parking for karaoke, but after a few rounds, babe suggested for us to go to Adzzie's house. Then cos he said it so casually, I couldn't help but ask him why. I mean, not that I didn't want to or anything like that, just that it felt sudden AND we hadn't seen each other in awhile so I thought it would be weird for him to say that especially since he hadn't seen her or called her since forever... So I asked, 'Why" and he was like so indirect about it and so I told him, if you don't tell me I'll wanna know, and I'll keep asking questions, but if you tell me, then I'll just be like okay whatever about it... And my example I gave him was, "If I told you I was going out, you'd automatically ask me, with who and where are you going... But if I told you I was going out shopping with Kathy, you'd be like, oh okay, cool, have fun..." is that not true??! Finally he blurted out that he had to pay Adzzie some money back, and then it hit me, that he had asked her to get my birthday present from Singapore!!! Awwww that was sweet of him!!!
So then we went to Adzzie's and we stayed and chatted for about an hour before we headed back down to Hitz to meet up with Paul, Sandy, Paul's friend and Andrew. Nothing out of the ordinary, except a couple of not-so-close guys "dropped by". In their short stay, one of the boys came over and talked to me. Then assuming that babe's friends knew them quite well, and not knowing any better I continued small talk with him... The conversation went something like this...
Boy: (Walks over and sits next to me) Hey you look really familiar, have I seen you somewhere? Do you go to UWA??? Oh I'm ______ by the way... (gave me his hand)
Me: Ohh okay, I'm Evelyn. (shook his hand) Um, no I've actually graduated... Ahh, this is my friend Sandy...
Boy: (in a suave manner, shook her hand) Hello Sandy, I'm _______. Oh where were you at?
Me: Curtin...
Boy: What did you graduate from?
Me: Asian studies and commerce, I majored in Mandarin and International Business... What about you, what do you study?
Boy: (blah blah some sort of Engineering in UWA)
Me: Oh okay, cool...
Boy: Yeah so as I was saying, you just look really familar, have I seen you somewhere??
Me: Umm well I think I saw you a couple of weeks back at the Leedy Hotel...
Boy: Oh okay, well I can't remember...
(somehow we stumbled upon the topic of Mustang Bar)...
Boy: Oh Mustang Bar, were you there last Wednesday?
Me: Oh yeah I was..
Boy: Oh well I must've seen you there then...
Me: Ohh okayz..
(The the convo moved to something like him being sick and the other two boys being sick too blah blah, and I was like, Ohhh well don't pass it to me!!!)
Boy: (Leans over and says) Ohh my friend David...
Me: Huh? Which one??? (cos he was vaguely pointing to the other side of the room but there were two guys I didn't know of - one was Paul's friend and the other came with this guy - but remember I assumed everyone was kinda friends..)
Boy: Him, the one in the black...
Me: Yeah, what about him??
Boy: I think he wants to meet you...
Me: (Laughs) Ohhh but I've actually got a boyfriend....
Boy: Ohh where is he??
Me: (points over to Jimmy who was sitting two peoples away from me!!!)
Boy: (Puts his hand on my shoulder and says) Ohh thankyou for being so honest and up front about it...
LOL that was so funny!!!!!!!!
Little did I know, that they were NOT close close to the majority of the group!
But why am I going on about this... Well, after that incident, babe reached over to hug me, babe asked me to take photos with him, babe looked at me while singing...
HAHHAHA I love you too babes!
Babe called me and told me to hurry to his place to go shopping...
Before shopping we headed to Honda cos hunni was fed up with his head light looking like his high beams were on!! The mechanic who came out to have a look hda the balls to ask us if we wanted to leave our car for a few hours for a "headlight adjustment". How gay. I mean come on, couldn't he had just adjusted it there and then on the spot??? Surely, a headlight adjustment wouldn't take more than a few minutes to get it right. Stoopid mechanic. And the way he said it, sounded like it would cost us like $50 to get it adjusted or something. PFFFTTT. Stoopid money munching mechanic.
Went to Garbo with babe to buy another clothes hanger for his grandma...
Isn't it lovely?? She reminds me of myself when I was younger!!..Artistic and dedicated!!! Now I'm just plain lazy!!
Can you see how we both got moles near our mouths??!
Then on Tuesday, Amanda made me rock up to TAFE for "lunch"...
Lunch was dismissed, but she gave me a personally made album of all the pics we took since the beginning of our course!! Aww she's such a sweetie!!!
HAHAHA what was up with my pinky??! And notice MoMo finally paying attention to me (she just wanted some cake!)?!! So cute!!!
Aww if only MoMo was smiling... And my hair wasn't messy... Aiiii But I still think I looked nice!! ;P
A bit wacky, you're very difficult to predict. One moment you're in your own little happy universe... And the next, you're on a bad trip to your own personal hell!
You see life as simple, and simple is a very good thing. You're cheerful and upbeat, taking everything as it comes. And you decide not to worry, even when things look bad. You figure there's just so many great things to look forward to.
You're definitely in a low place right now, but you also know deep down that you can get out of your funk. Take a chance and make a new friend or try a new interest. Shaking things up will give you the self-esteem boost you need!

Hunni was being an annoying irritant yesterday.>_<
At Nishi for example, he kept "back-chatting" to me! I can't think of any other way to describe, but it was all very tongue-in-cheek!
When I got my knickers in a knot and couldn't take it no more, I confronted him.I asked him, "What's your problem??" and "Do you like annoying me??"
Then he candidly replied, "I like to see you go ape-shit".Okay, so I can't really quote him cos I can't even remember what he said, but I heard something like that…
Strangely though, I felt a sense of fulfilment.
Yes, I am one oddity.
*Shrugs*I suppose it's because I never felt such "love-hate" sensations rushing within me!I wanted to slap him, yet smooch him at the same time (yes, cocky bastard.. :P).ROFLZ and it kinda felt good! =D
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
We fretted around to numerous travel agents for our Companion Fare only to be slapped with bad news after bad news - NO SEATS. ARGHHHH, the frustration! I find it totally inconceivable that we are quoted prices that are no longer available for purchase. What a total disappointment. Couldn't they see that we wanted to do their business and stuff cash in their hands??!
Our intentions were not empty, but they treated us like fools...
Each and every place (excluding Flight Centre) told us about the glorious Companion Fare. Joytours offered us the lowest price so we headed to Northbridge to purchase our tickets. Then on the freeway, babe was like, "I wonder how much Bonadventure would be". I rolled my eyes and suggested that we head over and ask (EVEN though I had asked him numerous times to do so before)...
In the end, they proved to be the most trust worthy. The lady informed us that there were no seats available for the times we need to go. The earliest available was on th 13th November, but that's wayyy too early for us, so was no good. None of the other travel agents bothered to inform us such when we asked the week before or even the day before! POOOOEYYY!!!! So we missed out on the stupid Companion Fare. Wish they didn't even tell us about it... Got me all excited that we were getting a cheapo deal, but now we're left with a hole bigger than our pockets can handle...
Tickets are now gonna be 1000 buckeroooos. *sob*
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Called BCH earlier to let them know that I couldn't make it this arvo. I received the shock of my life. She pretty much told me off for cancelling and asked me, "Isn't this community service field where you want to go into?". I mean, come on, I am only a volunteer?? *sigh* Whatever, I'm over it...

Babe and I are going to book our holiday today!!! Absolutely ecstatic about it now that it's coming so quickly!!
Now all I gotta do is some HARDCORE saving $$$$$$ - which ultimately means: being frugal, tight, self-denying, stingy, self-restraining, prudent, and NOT wasteful, extravagant, reckless or self-indulgent.
*sigh*
I still want those jeans... and those cons... and... and...
*double sigh*
I suppose I can wait...
Today was an ideal day. A perfect day. After 8 hours plus of beauty sleep, I woke up energised with an exceptionally positive mood. I suppose this coloured the rest of my day bright yellow and happy because...
1. I decided not to purchase those library books (was sent an invoice of some $70 from the City of Canning after claiming those 6 books as my property for over two, three months!), and finally dragged my ass to Riverton to returned them. All the while, my head swarmed with excuses the whole drive and walk there, till I reached the counter... with a slight look of guilt and a "Ohhh these are overdue... I'm so hopeless, my mum reckons I shouldn't borrow from the library cos I'm always late!!" quote from myself to the lovely librarian, who appeared even more guilty when she informed me of my $12 fine!! HAHAHA As I said, honesty is always the best policy and luckily for me, I had a nice lady!! 2. Babe's Mum, babe and I ended up yearning for some Nishi only to arrive there with the bad news from an apologetic waitress "Sorry the kitchen's closed..." Yeah, I thought, that'll be right.. it is 2.30pm already... so our next option was Yummy BBQ for some $70 dim sum... Is that exp from 3 people??? 3. Went to Kardinya shopping centre to collect Mauritius brochures and to get quotes for KL with little Kelly. Her behaviour has definately improved. She is much more easier to handle now that she's over the I-want-this-I-want-that tanty mode and just plain clever for a little multi-lingual 5 year old!! Thank goodness for kindergarten!! And Flight Centre is such a gold-digging agent! They were the only place who failed to mention that there was a special "Companion Fare" out now for $550 to $590 plus $200 something taxes... Flight Centre quoted us at least $880 and that was the total excluding taxes!!! pFFFFftttt!! We're definately going to purchase from Joytours or Jetset who were smart and honest enough to tell us the offer! 4. Babe dropped me off to work cos the Flight Centre attendant took ages to give us a quote and I would've been late for work had I driven myself... I suppose I should've be thankful??! XD 5. Fretted for a good ten minutes because I couldn't call through to babe... I stressed that I would've had to wait in the city for however long till he were to realise that I needed to be picked up... BUT babe surprised me back with a phone call at 8.15pm... He had already arrived and was waiting for me out the front of Rydges... AWWWWWW How sweet!!! 6. Had steam boat at babe's 9th aunty's restaurant with a bunch of his reles... Highlights: Met Cherry and Paul's baby son for the first time!! He was soooooo cute! He's gonna be one handsome boy when he grows up - he's eurasian!!! :D; Babe boiling me an egg; Eating one huge momma fried ice cream - it was so big, I couldn't even finish it!!! It was such an AWW-MAH-GAWD moment!!; Making babe walk me to the outdoor toilet and finding him outside waiting for me to finish (didn't expect that!!) *Awww* :)) 7. Played a good half and hour worth of competitive PING-PONG with a cocky hunni... Good entertainment babe, and you know what??!! He actually "tried" to play with me... even though I sucked at Pinging Ponging and all! *Double Awww* ;D
I had a 10/10 day!! Happy meter = 100%!! Thanks babe!! XD
Logged on to MSN tonight and found a wicked link from Andrew! Check it out! My favourites are the batman...
and the gold detector!
OOOOO If only I could fall into a gold ditch!!

Wait Him Out...
He's not ready for marriage yet - but someday he probably will be. It's really your call to decide if he's worth the wait. If you've been dating briefly, he may just need to know you better. But if you've been seeing him for a while, he might be taking his sweet time.
How to get him to commit: Play the field. If you've been dating more than six months (a year if you're under 24), then you two should be very serious. No ring on your finger? It's time to meet other guys. If he wants to keep you, he'll get more serious about you.
Maybe you haven't known each other long... And that's why he's acting a bit sketchy But if you've been together for a few months, Then you've got to let him go. Because he's not looking to put a ring on your finger - ever. This guy's not going to change for you, or any other woman.
You're a pretty sweet person, and you're definitely not prone to bitchy outbursts. Sometimes, though, you can't help thinking mean thoughts about people. But at least you don't act on them!

Stole this from Sophia's blog - I couldn't resist as soon as I heard the song and listened to its lyrics. It's beautiful... :)
If I'm not in love with you What is this I'm going through Tonight
And if my heart is lying then What should I believe in Why do I go crazy Every time I think about you, baby Why else do I want you like I do If I'm not in love with you
And if I don't need your touch Why do I miss you so much Tonight
If it's just infatuation then Why is my heart aching To hold you forever Give a part of me I thought I’d never Give again to someone I could lose If I'm not in love with you
Why in every fantasy Do I feel your arms embracing me Lovers lost in sweet desire Why in dreams do I surrender Lying with you baby Someone help explain this feeling Someone tell me
If I'm not in love with you What is this I'm going through Tonight
And if my heart is lying then what should I believe in Why do I go crazy Every time I think about you baby Why else do I want you like I do If I'm not in love with you

Information
Unhappiness in relationships, according to Dr. Gary Chapman, is often due to the fact that we speak different love languages. Sometimes we don't understand our partner's requirements, or even our own. We all have a "love tank" that needs to be filled in order for us to express love to others, but there are different means by which our tank can be filled, and there are different ways that we can express love to others.
Mags told me to read this week's STM's starwatch... After analysing hers, I read mine...
"Leo July 24 - August 23 It's wonderful to be vulnerable. Only robots are devoid of emotion. If you are going to have feelings of any kind, you have to have them of every kind. It is not possible to pick and mix from some inner smorgasbord. In the world of the heart, the service is 'a la carte'. You do have a choice - but not a choice about 'how you feel'.You simply get to choose how you feel about how you feel. There's a significant difference . You can, for example, even feel good now about feeling not so good! You can also do something good about a situation that's less than ideal. But first you must conquer your fear of seeming weak."
I was superly freaked out, cos as I was talking to her I advised her the exact same thing. I said to her that I have been trying not to see things, situations or people at their worst, but rather to see the brighter side of things and to lighten up. Even when things, situations or people are negative, I try to not blow it all out of proportion and to take a step back before I have an outburst. So really, I'm not sure what my outburst last night to hunni was about... I suppose I am PMSing and just wanted a lil bit of TLC before I went to bed. I felt that I had a lot on my mind, yet I didn't feel that he bothered to take the time out to speak to me while he was out with his friends.
Back to the horoscope thingy, I'm unsure about the comment "conquering my fear of seeming weak..." Hrmmmm....
Yesterday I woke up to a message from Chrissy Jie to get together. After a phone call she headed over and waited for me to get ready. Whilst I was in the shower, I had a mega blood nose!! OMG! That would've been like my 3rd blood nose in my entire life!!! I was so shocked and when I tried to blow it out, it sprayed all over the tiles!!! EWWWWW Gross, I know!!! :\ Then I spent the rest of my shower with my head back cos it was dripping non-stop!!! Christine reckons I picked my nose while I was sleeping, but I reckon it was cos I was getting all heaty, sore throat and all anyways, so it must've been a sign that my body was telling me to take caution!!
Chrissy Jie and I went to Subiaco to pick up her dress from one of the stores in the Colonade. The dress was casual yet classy! Looked fab on her - even with her jeans!! Nice touch girl!! Funny thing was, the sales assistant looked soooo familiar! Turned out that she ate at Jimmy's restaurant the week before with her bf who I used to work with in Burswood (he was a bar guy)!! I thought it was so unpretentious of her to come up to me and ask me first!! I guess not all Colonade staff are stuck up and rude then!! She was far from it and was such a sweet presence, especially with her white cardi, white ribbon in her hair and her red spectacles!!! ;P
...And then we quickly dropped by May's shop, Delixir and I purchased a few discounted earrings and this from the shop next to hers, The Pagoda Tree!!!!!
Isn't it OH SO adorable??! I got one for babe and one for myself - I just couldn't resist!!! They're like lil woollen voodoo (not literally!) dolls!!! I love the colours! Made me sooooo *happi happi*!
Pity: That I had to rush to work at 3.30pm so we couldn't meet up with Maggies in the city... We thought she sounded pissed when she said, "Are you for realllllllll?" LOL But later she told me she was actually with someone at the time so she didn't want that person to feel like she was ditching them to meet up with us anyways... something like that lahhh!
We had a bit more time after we didn't have to rush to the city to meet Mags for a late lunch so we headed to Sicilian for some lunch special and the Tortellini was delish!!!!! Must go back there again one day!
Later at BCH, the kids went crazy as if they were competing for attention and/or testing their power with the new Activ8 guy, Chris and I. At first I felt a stab of betrayal cos they didn't hire me, but then I didn't want to stay on to look after those kids anyway cos: 1. I'm not qualified as a youth worker, 2. It's very tiring trying to think of interesting activities for the kids - I'm just not that energetic! BUT, the new guy was fabulous. He was gentle, yet firm when need be and he was energetic and fun! He definately suits the position and the kids are lucky to have him! :)
I'm contemplating leaving after a few more weeks because BCH doesn't need me anymore and I can't help but feel like they are abusing my labour, even though I am the one volunteering... It just feels like they want me to to stay but don't realise how hard I am working else where cos I need the moolahhh. Then I question myself when I say such things, cos then why the hell am I in this sector if I am not happy to volunteer several hours of my time a week?????? UrgHHhh...
Work was alright. I was feeling all good until I did one of those consecutive sneezes type of thing that I'm famous for, and then I felt crapolaaaaa. =( Think I'm on the verge of a biggggg sickieee...
Left work with several missed calls and messages - some from my cousin asking me to go out and some from Mags asking me what a "resume" was called in Chinese!! LOL of course I had no idea so I was of no help at all! Gave her a call back and ended up talking for over 2 hours!!! That was fun!!! :P Us girls are motor-mouths!
OHHhhh I was supposed to meet up with Kathy and Som today... But didn't hear from her so I presume it's okay or that they've got other plans...
Anyway, might go and vaccum my room or do something productive before I have to head off to work agains. Aiii, the life of working like a dog... hehe jkz, it really isn't so bad!!! :)
...From the interesting people to restocking sugars (LOL)...
The following are captions on this brand of sugar sachets. This has got to be one of the smartest marketing ploys ever!! It has sucked me in and it definately brought a smile to my face, even if I was having an "exceptionally bad day" HE HE HE ;D
"At least something's sweet today..."
"Today feel like a worse version of yesterday?"
"With your luck, it's probably salt..."
"Black cat walk across your path?"
"Open an umbrella in a room?"
Exceptional Coffee Even on exceptionally bad days Piazza D'oro
Kewl or what, ah?? ;P
My babe singing... to me!!! ;P
05/08/06 We were heading to Sasikan's 21st birthday in Subi Hotel, but was told that everyone had dispersed to other clubs so we went to Base for Jon Lim's birthday, but everyone had gone too!!!! Mehhh Ahhh wells!
Babe + Andrew + Jack + Mikey
Me + Babe! I luv this photo cos the backdrop looks wicked and I have my very own "Superman" next to me!!! =P
Later we went to Dom and Sophia's place, watched Eyes Wide Shut, and indulged in some beer, Subway, and Cheezels together!!
This time I accepted and as I peered into the bag, I got the SHOCK of my life!!! It wasn't Tiffany, but it was something pink - possibly a shirt???!! A little disappointed, I can't remember whether I even said it aloud, but I remember thinking, "You got me a pink cloth??!" and then I pulled it out and was STILL confused as to what it was, but saw a huge B on this pink looking cloth... Then finally it hit me, he got me a BURBERRY SCARF!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ROFLZ It was so funny, cos I swear I totally did not expect him to 1. Purchase me something branded, 2. Purchase me a scarf, and 3. I was seriously misled, because I thought he had brought me a Tiffany bracelet or something!!!
Well, I sure was surprised babe! And I do love it! It's even reversible too!! Wowwww!!
Thankyou hunni bunni!!!!! It was very sweet and thoughtful of you!!! *CuDdLeZ* XD
Then I went home and couldn't stop thinking about what he could have gotten me. Kat and I went through a list of things he couldn't get here and needed to get from overseas... We settled on something branded but she persisted me to ask him to give me a clue. So I did, and he said, "It's something you can wear.." Automatically I assumed he must've brought me jewellery. Better yet, something Tiffany!!!!!!!! I mean he wouldn't purchase me clothes and really, what else can you wear??????
What does this bag hint to you??
A couple of nights after my birthday, babe finally told me he got my present. As he was about to hand it over to me, he was like, "Here babe, Happy birthday... Oh but I haven't written in your card yet..." After waiting for so long already, I told him not to give it to me until he wrote in my card...
Two minutes later, I couldn't control myself so I decided to have a peek at the bag... And yes, it was this lovely Fossil bag, and I thought to myself, "Awww he brought me a watch - not just any watch, but a Fossil watch!! He must've brought me a matching one as his... Awww that's thoughtful of him... even though I dun really wear watches as much nowadays and I'm not into those leather band type watches as he is... I hope he didn't get me a brown band..." ladiladidahhh So all those thoughts ran through my head and I decided that I was content with his surprise because he had put so much thought into it and it was such a sweet gesture - a matching watch!!
Little did I know, that it could've been something else, so when he said, "Don't you wanna know what I got you???" I was like, "*giggles* welllll before after you were about to pass me the bag, I kinda peeked at it, and I think I know what you got me *gushes*" Then babe was like, "hahhahaha well, what do you think it is??" and I was like, "Ohhh a Fossil watch!!!" In amidst his laughs he blabbed to me that he was just reusing the bag from his fossil watch, but the present was anything but a Fossil watch!! ROFLZ!!!!!
Last week at work I saw this Asian lady who looked just like Adzzie! Well, how I think Adzzie would look like when she ages... Freaky or what?? The resemblences were so similar - petite face, same eye shapes, same nose and same smile!! She even had the Singaporean accent going on!! Then I remember nudging Jimmy and whispering to him my discovery... and he was like... "Ohhh, yeah... kinda" hehehehe
Last night while I was needing some TLC from my babe, he paid ZILCH attention to me whilst we were talking on the phone!! We ended up having an sms war and he didn't even reply my last message - that poohead. =( HRPMH... 死性不改 ... Will give myself some TLC...

I love this blog! Sandy is a fantastic blogger and I find everything she has to say is elegantly expressed with much wisdom, truth and heart to it. Her writings inspire me to write better too, though I know I will never reach her level - I am wayyyyyyy too casual and lazy! Such a gifted and beautiful person she is! Aww I wish I was articulate!;P
From her latest post titled, "RESTLESS HEARTS AND MINDS ARE MOVING ON", here is an extract of her words of wisdoms...
1. Happiness needn't come at someone else's expense.
2. An issue is only as significant as the attention you give it.
3. If you get on the freeway before 7:05am, it's heaps quick to get to the city.
4. It's not the games you lose that you regret; it's the games you don't play.
5. Some people don't really care about your problems, but do care lots about you. These people are always very nice to talk to. :)
The 3 of us!
Adzzie & I!
Close up!
Adzzie & Gwen!
Adzzie was superly duperly amazed that Perth has a Gucci store!!!
LESSONS EVERY WOMEN MUST KNOW!!! and Learn...
If a man wants you, NOTHING can keep him away. If he doesn't want you, NOTHING can make him stay. STOP making excuses for a man and his behaviour. Allow your intuition (or spirit) to save you from heartache.
STOP trying to change yourselves for a relationship that's not meant to be.
Slower is better. Never live your life for a man before you find what makes you truly happy.
If a relationship ends because the man was not treating you as you deserve, then heck no; you can't "be friends." A friend wouldn't mistreat a friend.DON'T SETTLE!
If you feel like he is stringing you along, THEN HE PROBABLY IS.........HELLO!
Don't stay because you think "it will get better." You'll be mad at yourself a year (or more) later for staying when things are "not better".
The only person you can control in a relationship is YOU.
Avoid men who've got a bunch of children by a bunch of different women. He didn't marry them when he got them pregnant, Why would he treat you any differently?
Always have your own set of friends separate from his. Maintain boundaries in how a guy treats you. If something bothers you, speak up.
Never let a man know everything. He will use it against you later.
You cannot change a man's behaviour. Change comes from within.
Don't EVER make him feel he is more important than you are... even if he has more education or in a better job. Do not make him into a quasi-god.He is a man, nothing more nothing less.
Never let a man define who you are.
Never borrow someone else's man. Oh Lord! If he cheated with you,he'll cheat on you. A man will only treat you the way you ALLOW (did I sayALLOW)him to treat you.
All men are NOT dogs.
You should not be the one doing all the bending.... COMPROMISE IS A TWO WAY STREET.
You need time to heal between relationships...there is nothing cute about baggage... deal with your issues before pursuing a new relationship.
You should never look for someone to COMPLETE you ...... a relationship consists of two WHOLE individuals...look for someone complimentary...not supplementary.
Dating is fun...even if he doesn't turn out to be Mr. Right.
MAKE HIM MISS YOU! Sometimes ...... when a man always knows where you are; and you're always ready available to him, he takes it for granted.
Never move into his mother's house.
Never co-sign for a man.(Hallelujah, thank you Jesus!)
Don't fully commit to a man who doesn't give you everything that you need. Keep him in your radar but get to know others.
Share this with other ladies..... You'll make someone SMILE, another RETHINK her choices, and another woman PREPARE.
They say it takes a minute to find a special person, an hour to appreciate them, a day to love them and an entire lifetime to forget them.
Luv, Leh Miin x

Was flicking through this week's STM and stumbled across an article about "What Men Want".
I thought it was a lovely little eye opener as it offered the opinions of a range of men.
One of my fave questions was,
What do you want from a relationship?
These were some of the replies...
"All I want out of my relationship is happiness. From it, I expect support, trust and truthfulness." - John Steffensen - 23, WAIS athlete, dual Commonwealth Games gold medalist (400m, 4 x 400m relay)
"I want balance and someone you're equal with. I want someone who hangs out with your friends and can have a life with you as well as their own life." - Nathan Morris - 30, Nova 93.7 breakfast presenter
"I want a partnership. Someone to share all aspects of life with, from love to business." - Jason Petkovic - 33, Perth Glory goalkeeper
"I have a personal space requirement as well as a partnership requirement, so that I'm not smothered. I also want a happy environment in my relationship." - Roberto Pierucci - 49, designer "I'm very blessed to have everything I want in my relationship - love, trust, understanding and baked goods. Being with the person you love and being accepted 100 per cent, no matter how you look or what you say, feeling supported and being able to let it all hang out and still get a kiss on the mouth is everything you can ask for." - David Genat - 26, male supermodel
"I want loyalty, trust, friendship, mutual respect, excitement, fun, passion and sexual fulfillment. I also want a confidante." - Malcom Day - 41, managing director of adultshop.com and director of the Breast Cancer Foundation of WA
But I still can't get over how great this article was, so I shall post the questions for further probing and analysis!! ;P
1. What do you want from a relationship?
2. What do you want from your career?
3. What do you want from your life?
4. What do you expect from world leaders?
5. What do you treasure?
6. What scares you?
7. What are your favourite pastimes?
8. What do you think of fatherhood?
9. What's the biggest misconception about men?
10. What have you learnt about women?
Yeps, I expect some answers boys!!! Go get your bfs and hubbys to do it girls!!! YES, babe, and I would like you to have a think about these questions too!! I'm gonna ask you about it later!! *wink*

Wow!! Kewlioooo! Paul Frank & Eeyore pjammiez set!!!! Thanks Chrissy Jie! I love them!! X O X O
And when I got home, I found this present on the dining table!!!
Yes, Jimmy is H O T!!!!!!!!
Being the crazy camera fanatic I am, I couldn't resist but to take a
pic of this!!!! It was named after babe!! Maybe it was made
just for him?! hauhauauhauhauhauhua GOSH I am such a
loser!! HAHAHA
Babe dropped me off to the city and we had some Takas before he walked me to work. Aww! :)
I finished work at 8pm and babe came to pick me up.
We went to Villa Italia, corner of Aberdeen and William Street for dinner. A selection of their pastas was $11.95 (Mondays to Thursdays??) so we chose some Tortellini pasta, a Fettituni dish, some Bruschetta and two lemon ice teas! And I must add that the pasta was actually very nice!!! Must go back there next time to try the other pastas!
After dinner we were going to look for parking for karaoke, but after a few rounds, babe suggested for us to go to Adzzie's house. Then cos he said it so casually, I couldn't help but ask him why. I mean, not that I didn't want to or anything like that, just that it felt sudden AND we hadn't seen each other in awhile so I thought it would be weird for him to say that especially since he hadn't seen her or called her since forever... So I asked, 'Why" and he was like so indirect about it and so I told him, if you don't tell me I'll wanna know, and I'll keep asking questions, but if you tell me, then I'll just be like okay whatever about it... And my example I gave him was, "If I told you I was going out, you'd automatically ask me, with who and where are you going... But if I told you I was going out shopping with Kathy, you'd be like, oh okay, cool, have fun..." is that not true??! Finally he blurted out that he had to pay Adzzie some money back, and then it hit me, that he had asked her to get my birthday present from Singapore!!! Awwww that was sweet of him!!!
So then we went to Adzzie's and we stayed and chatted for about an hour before we headed back down to Hitz to meet up with Paul, Sandy, Paul's friend and Andrew. Nothing out of the ordinary, except a couple of not-so-close guys "dropped by". In their short stay, one of the boys came over and talked to me. Then assuming that babe's friends knew them quite well, and not knowing any better I continued small talk with him... The conversation went something like this...
Boy: (Walks over and sits next to me) Hey you look really familiar, have I seen you somewhere? Do you go to UWA??? Oh I'm ______ by the way... (gave me his hand)
Me: Ohh okay, I'm Evelyn. (shook his hand) Um, no I've actually graduated... Ahh, this is my friend Sandy...
Boy: (in a suave manner, shook her hand) Hello Sandy, I'm _______. Oh where were you at?
Me: Curtin...
Boy: What did you graduate from?
Me: Asian studies and commerce, I majored in Mandarin and International Business... What about you, what do you study?
Boy: (blah blah some sort of Engineering in UWA)
Me: Oh okay, cool...
Boy: Yeah so as I was saying, you just look really familar, have I seen you somewhere??
Me: Umm well I think I saw you a couple of weeks back at the Leedy Hotel...
Boy: Oh okay, well I can't remember...
(somehow we stumbled upon the topic of Mustang Bar)...
Boy: Oh Mustang Bar, were you there last Wednesday?
Me: Oh yeah I was..
Boy: Oh well I must've seen you there then...
Me: Ohh okayz..
(The the convo moved to something like him being sick and the other two boys being sick too blah blah, and I was like, Ohhh well don't pass it to me!!!)
Boy: (Leans over and says) Ohh my friend David...
Me: Huh? Which one??? (cos he was vaguely pointing to the other side of the room but there were two guys I didn't know of - one was Paul's friend and the other came with this guy - but remember I assumed everyone was kinda friends..)
Boy: Him, the one in the black...
Me: Yeah, what about him??
Boy: I think he wants to meet you...
Me: (Laughs) Ohhh but I've actually got a boyfriend....
Boy: Ohh where is he??
Me: (points over to Jimmy who was sitting two peoples away from me!!!)
Boy: (Puts his hand on my shoulder and says) Ohh thankyou for being so honest and up front about it...
LOL that was so funny!!!!!!!!
Little did I know, that they were NOT close close to the majority of the group!
But why am I going on about this... Well, after that incident, babe reached over to hug me, babe asked me to take photos with him, babe looked at me while singing...
HAHHAHA I love you too babes!
Babe called me and told me to hurry to his place to go shopping...
Before shopping we headed to Honda cos hunni was fed up with his head light looking like his high beams were on!! The mechanic who came out to have a look hda the balls to ask us if we wanted to leave our car for a few hours for a "headlight adjustment". How gay. I mean come on, couldn't he had just adjusted it there and then on the spot??? Surely, a headlight adjustment wouldn't take more than a few minutes to get it right. Stoopid mechanic. And the way he said it, sounded like it would cost us like $50 to get it adjusted or something. PFFFTTT. Stoopid money munching mechanic.
Went to Garbo with babe to buy another clothes hanger for his grandma...
Isn't it lovely?? She reminds me of myself when I was younger!!..Artistic and dedicated!!! Now I'm just plain lazy!!
Can you see how we both got moles near our mouths??!
Then on Tuesday, Amanda made me rock up to TAFE for "lunch"...
Lunch was dismissed, but she gave me a personally made album of all the pics we took since the beginning of our course!! Aww she's such a sweetie!!!
HAHAHA what was up with my pinky??! And notice MoMo finally paying attention to me (she just wanted some cake!)?!! So cute!!!
Aww if only MoMo was smiling... And my hair wasn't messy... Aiiii But I still think I looked nice!! ;P
