I love much. Or rather, I used to. I started this post with nothing to blog in mind, but just thought it would be therapeutic to dance my fingers over the keyboard.. you know how sometimes you just start a MSN conversation out of habit, not knowing where it will go, but then there are always plenty of surprises it will bring you?

We trudge on, bit by bit, step by step. No one has totally gotten over everything.
To happiness. Not 3. 4.
With, or without.
Forgive and… can anyone truly forget? I know we will all one day look back and laugh at atrocity of things, like how I always do when I unintentionally pore into the past(archives are always there, bummer).
We never do forget our own stupidity. In more ways than one.
Gritting the teeth and waiting for the worst to be over. Like many other episodes in life, even like labour pain(ouchy ouch!), it will be over when you least expect it.. So I am keeping in mind of the eventual.
And the peace and sweetness that follows, will always be the most saccharine.
Without the contrast of the lows, the brilliance of the peaks will never shine as much.

I have been hungry these days. Whee! I guess it suppose to show that I am getting somewhere.
But I think I am super not fated to eat.
Like yesterday, I have decided to brave the noon crowd(everyone knows how afraid I am of crowds) and noon heat to walk the distance to Lau Pat Sat, just because I have a Nasi Lemak craving(that is on top of my Spizza Carpaccio pizza’s cravings).
So this is what happened.
Walk to Lau Pat Sat. Very hot.
Queue for Nasi Lemak. Don’t have Nasi Lemak. Nevermind. Bee hoon, add sides.
Open up coin purse.
FUCK! No money, at all!
Gasp! Gasp! Gasp!
The past 2 times I have had lunch at LPS, I have always bumped into familiar faces. This time? Nada. Zilch.
You see, I didn’t order like generic stuff that can be passed on to the next customer, so I felt kinda bad. And no, I don’t have my ATM card with me either.
So?
I decided to walk back to the office.
Then suddenly, it rained on me!
When I finally got to my office building? The freaking rain stopped!
I ran up and borrowed some money from my colleague, and walked back in the scorching heat(the sun decided to say a big hi) to LPS, and my tee was drenched in my sweat.
20 minutes later, I was back at LPS, and handing over the cash to the auntie, and took my precious pack of beehoon back with me to the office.
I took my time to relish in the beehoon, cos seriously, I don’t usually have lunch and this just shows maybe I reaaaaaaaaally shouldn’t have lunch. Hmphf. Grr…..
And I went out to buy lunch again today. No prize for guessing what I bought. Happiness is very the me

I cannot begin to count how many stuuuupid things I have done in the past couple of days, wahahaha, I think we are all infected with the Bobo disease. Effy is contagious.
Minibean is becoming so adult-ish that it surprised me as I sat next to her and reading to her late last night.
When I told her the prunes were spoilt and bad, she took the container and said, “Huai le… Na qu diu diao (spoil already, must throw away)”.
When I flipped through the pages, she will always notice the things I fail to do so.
Like, a person sneezing in the picture, will make her go “Aaaaaaa choooooo!”
We then danced around, till she twirled until she was walking like a drunk.
She says “Thank you Mummy! Please Mummy” differently now. With so much more cheekiness and confidence… and I do miss the slight hesitation in her.
It was fabulous to reach home yesterday evening when it wasn’t completely dark, to find her opening up the door.
She was ready to head out with my parents, wearing the pretty bubble dress Cindy got for her. I immediately tried to hide her hair underneath the hood, hahaha.
She was so excited that she kissed me so many times to say goodbye before she ran into the lift.
Not before I took out my camera, and captured the moment she greeted me as I got home.. that was the moment I looked forward to yesterday as I headed home, though I had wished she wasn’t heading out instead.
She immediately posed for me, leaning forward, tilt sideways, squatting down, leaning backwards… as I held up the camera, and she would come up to me to insist on reviewing the pictures.
At least her hair looked pretty okay in the pictures, but I really do miss typing her hair up for her, and even a random bundling could make her look so pretty.
So pwwwweeeettttttttttttyyyy
