loved, blessed, spoiled.

last weekend, doodoo decided to bring me out to do some shopping cos the orange colour from a towel that i have ran onto one of my lovely cream puff-sleeved tops which i love ooh-so-much :( and they're one of the tops that i can wear to work. i was surprised that for the first time, he suggested going shopping haha. maybe cos i haven't been buying clothes at all - just mr men, little miss, and even more of those. he bought a dress, a top, and a pair of black slacks for me, all of which i cannot wear to work except for the black slacks. i felt so loved~ he actually understood i needed clothes. haha!

i've also been having this silly craving for Han's peach tarts. it seems that my brain keeps telling me "one is NEVER enough", so doodoo took me by surprise again and bought 4 for me. :D i feel so spoiled. haha.

everytime there's a break, i just want to check out the new attractions at Sentosa with doodoo. the weather always seems threatening though, and by the time we realise we've been fooled, its too late to go anywhere, which means my plans were totally spoilt, and the bottomline is, i didn't get what i wanted. but somehow or rather doodoo puts up with me (i know i'm stressing him out a lot but i didn't mean to :() and takes me somewhere else to be happy again - happy to be able to dine with him, to play tikam tikam with him (though i get sulky when i always can't get the last toy that i need to complete the set), and to be with him. i don't say it, but i feel so blessed that he brings me back down to Earth, and reminds me with his actions that its not the places that we go that matter, neither is it the restaurants that we dine at, its really the company that we enjoy the most. like how crawling up onto the upper deck of a double-deck bus may feel like the most tiring thing to do when you're having a fever but you realise later on that it doesn't feel so bad when you're with a loved one and perhaps that alone brings you comfort.

anyway, just last night, we went to Sher's place for a surprise "party!". it was lovely, and it felt good to see 'em all again. sitting on Sher's sofa reminds me of the countless projects we worked on at her place.. whether or not it was sewing a playkit or designing our boards for our presentation.

what we did at her place was to hide in her room, and when she stepped in after her date with Fai, we'd started to sing the happie bday song and omg, she just started to cry. it wasn't just tearing.. hehe :X it was so funny to see that everyone (including myself) were on the verge of having a heart/panic attack. because sher's lift brings her right up to her doorstep, we could monitor it to see when she was coming home. and each time there was a false alarm, we had to blow out the candles and light 'em back again (cos otherwise the Strawberry Shortcake) would melt. the cake was soooooo good i love the sweetness of it. YUMMY!~!~! after we ate the cake, the treasure hunt for Sher's presents began! LOL.

i feel like i'm having a hangover even though none of us drank a sip. i slept at something like 3am cos i was surfing the net, checking my emails and all until that time or so~ and now i'm having stiff joints, a hot and painful head and i just wanna keep sitting down forever. is this what a hangover feels like? well i picture it to be.

the girls seemed thrilled with the car bag, and sher "drove" it in her living room haha. there was even an imaginary traffic light! i told them how much it cost and thankfully nobody jumped, cos i might have paid a little weee bit more for 'em now that i remember i am charged some $$ when i make the payment to an overseas addy/person:(

and i wish my stupid, layered hair would just grow away. thanks to the way they were chopped, i look as if i've got curls but its not the kind that i want. so since i'm not considering rebonding for the time being, maybe i really should try a curl @ Jean Yip (Reb did her perm there and it turned out absolutely fab both times!) and be an obasan for 6 months.

this seemed like an utterly long post of happy times~ well 2 more weeks to go before i get my one week break! woohoo!~ its still sth to cheer abt although my throat hurts :( perhaps its from all the talking i had to do, and laughing from the children's petty-ness or the funny things they say.
