I
had the car to myself today. After a rather painless trip JB with my parents which began at 615am to change my malaysian IC to some fancy modern one, I had the pleasure of driving my daddy to work - Gleneagles hospital, #07-15. website:http://www.sinus.sg/ (there you go, free advertising for daddy!). A first. =@) So I took a nice drive along orchard(stopping at zara, my fav brand!) then to holland v where I could not get any parking so I happily drove along, and got myself pleasantly lost as I went to queensway. haha it was quite nice orientating myself around lil ol sunny singapore as I never really get a chance to as I normally am preoccupied with other thoughts when anyone else is driving. haha.
mm and the evening was another first. Had my first nine holes with my dad! - pictures coming up. He was just teaching me lil techniques regarding my swing turn..blabla. the works. I had a few pretty good shots today, and I think my dad was really proud to see me playing really, its always been his dream to see both his children play golf and with him. It was such a pleasant evening though, really cool with thebreeze blowing and the sun setting. =@)
so.. I'm leaving in almost a weeks time. I feel strangely calm about it, without the normally slightly raised anxiety about the emotional rollarcoaster I would be going through the day I leave. It all very heart wrenching, and moment I have to say goodbye at the departure gates to my parents and ben, and the awful awful choked sensation I get. It is all ends in tears as I walk in. Oh its so horrible..mm..
But I must say I've had an incredible summer. Picked up 2 new skills, golf and salsa dancing with ben. Both great couple activities.. =@) Its really bonding. *smile*managed to catch up with old friends, blast from the past friends, friends whoom ive had misunderstandings with, but have reconnected with( you know who you are =@)). I had a great experience at Corduroy and Finch, earned some pocket money along to way to fund my sinful indulging habit of retail therapy. hehe.. Had wonderful eating times with ben, going from place to place to find the best char kway teow, but we both agree that Ghim Moh char kway teow is the best! The late night drive outs to meet him at 7th mile to eat a late dinner, or going to sicc for a "free" dinner! hehee.. we are bad people. There were many amazing moments and the list goes on.. but all in all my summer break has been .. perfect.
I really thank God for so many blessings in my life, I was telling my dad in JB this morning as we had a prata breakfast, that my life is going too well for me at the moment, its almost scary. I'm just waiting for something to go wrong. Like one day, something's going to happen which will turn my life around. mm.. scary stuff. but really, life isnt perfect. I'm trying appreciate every sight I see, and every sound I hear, and every step I take. Sounds like a cliche song or poem, but it is true. One of these days, either age or disease will take away that simple privelege of hearing, seeing and walking. Such fundamental basic functions of the human body, yet oh so important to our daily lives.
On a lighter note! I bought Her World wedding magazine today! it's a thick issue! haha.. i love looking and reading wedding magazines and daydream about my own D day. hehee.. so babz. I know. Dont worry all my bridesmaid wannabes out there.. I wont forget you! =@)
