From UK with ♥ =D

I have been utterly surprised and moved in the most unimaginable way. They always said that distance tends to break or dampen any relationship but I guess there is always that one or two exception. :) Well, did I mention that I am officially 21? =P

The big two one is something big or at least celebrated but I think the real celebration and the real meaning is not in the presents nor in the wishes, nor the parties we throw.. it's actually having the people whom I love and care about around me on this day which makes it so special and so dear. Well, there's 3 particular people who I would love to have the most this day aside from my family; Jia Rong, Ai Jane and Elizabeth. And it so happens that all 3 of them are a few oceans away. Funny how the distance will actually make me think of them so much more. I miss you 3 dearly.

I am who I am today because of so many things, lessons and because of so many people and one of them being the 3 of you. What I wouldn't give to have the 3 of you here today. Sigh.. this is making me emotional. But.. let's brighten up the mood.


Going back to the main point.. this week has been made special because of you ELIZABETH CHIA SU YIN! :) I'll let the pictures do the talking.



First it was the postcard that arrived on Thursday.
I was so tired that day and when I walked into the house
I saw this card on the table with a familiar handwriting and
a UK stamp. I had to smile when I saw it. It was a wonderful
surprise to perk me from the exhausting day I had.



The yesterday (Friday, 18th Feb), I finally went to Liz's place
to collect the presents she got her brother to bring back from the UK.
I thought it was just one present, but I was surprised to find a bag with 2
gifts inside. And there was this note. Haha. She even left instructions.
I could so hear her say the words "or ELSE!" at the moment.




1) Open the largest package. TA-DA! She got me 2 Austen movies!
I haven't read Sense and Sensibility. Which means, i'll have to get the book
soon. And She got me Colin Firth's version of Pride & Prejudice which
I only managed to watch a little bit of the beginning in Sha's place.
I recently read a book called Mr Darcy's diary, how apt, now I get to
rewatch P&P! =)



2) Open the smaller package. haha. She gave me a stress ball keychain.
It's so cute. I've been squeezing it already. The stress ball is
actually a piece of keepsake and also in remembrance
of our stressful endeavor in Ms Winnee's class. lol. I actually miss Ms Winnee. =P



3) Open the silver envelop and read the card.
4) Read the letter in the card.
I nearly cried when I read them. sigh.. Now I miss her even more.
I hate and love you Liz! Mostly I hate you for being so
far away. Yea. I'm actually saying I miss you. =P Can you tell??




Then when I came home, I got another surprise from her.
Gosh.. she has so outdone herself this time. =)
I found a birthday card from her sitting in the postbox.
Again, what she wrote made me smile and cry at the same time.
How much more contradictory can I get, right? Sheesh..




But what made me feel touched and truly loved is this. I nearly missed it.
Thank you Liz, I'd say the same to you too. :)



Gosh... I feel all mushy now. =P

The best part about studying Mass Comm is actually the projects we get to do. This is a film project done by my friends. It's pretty funny and cute. Enjoy! =)





Babies :)

I volunteered to help my aunt with her kids this week cause her mom is out of town. I love kids. =) My cousins are superbly adorable. They are really easy to love and they are quite manageable. It'll be a real eye-opening experience to see these two grow before our eyes. Haha. Which means, I'm getting older. =P





This is baby Cheryll. She is just 2 months old.
I know, her chubby cheeks makes you wanna pinch it right?? =P
The amazing part about her is the fact that she knows how to return a smile
when you smile and talk to her. Kinda intelligent. :)
The only thing is that she likes to be carried around,
so it can be tiring but she smells awesome! (yea..I sniff her scent all the time! XP)




This is Darren. He's turning 2 this May. He's super active and super
playful. Kinda like me when I was a kid.
He very smiley and he's very sociable for a child of 1 plus.
He likes to play with other children when he sees them.
He has a habit of saying goodbye to anyone he sees going out the door even strangers.
He likes to wave goodbye and at the same time, he likes to give goodbye kisses.
He's one of the most engrossing films to watch!
