FEEL THE BEAT

Wells wells, small little things make my day. Just like how this make-up pouch made me smile whole night. *though I bought it myself for $25* expensive...that's what my bf commented. I got it from a shop beside the HK Cafe at Cine, I really love those coin pouches, tissue holder the carry. All those girlish-countryside-looking accessories drove me crazy. The shop owner said they are all from Japan. I swear I so gona get the tissue holder...when my bf's not around. :P If not he'll nag the whole night. SOOoooo nice. Maybe if I'm meeting babe later, I shall go with her. She won't scold. haha. <3<3

Dance seems to be going nowhere. I know what I want, but I can foresee I may not be able to achieve it, at least not in the short run. Things are going too slow, at the kind of speed that I can no longer take. I feel like giving it all up.
Don't ask me what happened, or why. I don't feel like considering anybody's feelings anymore, except for my own. I know what makes me upset or disappointed, especially when hopes are lifted a bit, I realise it is just an illusion. I find that I know best as to what is good for me. I shall try to re-affirm this.
Giving it one last chance. After that, it will be final.

It was a different way of spending the evening with jQ, and perhaps once after a long long time that we’re spending quality time together, having only him and me, and nothing else. :) We went for a concert at the Esplanade performed by the Singapore Symphony Orchestra. We’re so arty-farty ya? Nah, he wants to listen to an orchestra perform LIVE, so as to assess the sound quality of the car audio equipment. I am obviously not appreciative of the music and fell asleep a few times. Had it been “Burn The Floor”, things would have been very different though. ^__^
Had Fondue at Haagan Dazs after the show (finally), and we were feeling rich. Spent 40 bucks for the bloody thing but we (opps HE) enjoyed it totally. jQ is a BIG eater! He was basically gorging. Well, there was a name-the-icecream contest and participants stand a chance to win a trip to Paris. Was I sick or what, I named it Orgasmic Paris. Dang.

I failed.
No license for 2007. I can wait slowly for next year February.
I have no confidence...cos it's so much luck involved. Perfected the circuit with no points deducted. Immediate failure outside. Please tell me why the "turn on green" arrow changes to red so fast? When I turn, it started to flash and before I reach it changes to red. SO, i beat the red light. Should I have stopped when it was still GREEN? Who in the right mind will? It's not even flashing.
Reality: I've failed. I'm sad. I'm irritated. I feel unlucky.

To some, it's total freedom when parents are not around. I felt the same on the first few days, but during mid week, I feeling TIRED. Cos I just have to wash clothes myself. I din do much house work though, failed to mop / vacuum the floor and I know I am sucha failure. ONLY washing clothes and hanging them...of course taking care of the little one ALL by myself is exhausting all my energy. When night falls, especially when brother is working his late shift, I am left all alone at home with Fluffy. Only the TV is breaking the silence. I realise I still like crowded homes. Peace sometimes of course. :)
Parents are coming back from China today. Hooooray! I think I lost weight, cos I am tooo lazy to buy myself lunch. How can I take care of myself man...hehee. But wells, I am happy cos there will be the feeling of HOME again!

Am I being inflexible or am I not understanding? Last minute changes leads to disappointment...maybe I should evaluate the reason behind the last minute change before deciding if it's worth being disappointed.
Ugly blogskin is finally gone, but gone are the links and pics too. :(
Latin lesson yesterday again after the long-but-not-so-long rest. Sam commented that I slimmed down. Did I? Not dancing = Slim? Wells wells, the entire lesson was spent doing rumba checks, and first question I ask was....is my arm supposed to be tensed? Toned versus Tensed. Answer is "No". It's very relaxed, with just enough energy to lift the arm up, the focus should be on the body. If the arm is tensed, so will be the body. The result: The lead will become heavy.
Lesson 2: Don't grip the floor with the standing foot. Grip with the free foot.
Lesson 3: Closeness. We don't "touch" to achieve closeness....go as close as possible, when doing the turn & sliding door without the T-shirt even touching the partner. This is dancing. Not demonstrating the steps.
Lesson 4: Michelle taught the "and" counts. Part weight on the 2, 3 4 counts. Hip movements vary in the 4 counts.
techniques....presentation....breathing....
Can I do It?

Today's a short day at work. Morning passed easily with some gossiping and fun viewing coach bags online with colleagues. Den it was lunch and later in the day......more gossiping and it was FOUR. hahaha. SO we had the periodic townhall but today was to bid farewell to our head of Group Audit. Had bbq dinner at Hyatt with the department, with freeflow magaritta and beer. Not too nice the food.....but the crapping part with the GFM ppl was hilarious. Literally laughing and laughing at some super lame jokes. Maybe not even jokes..hahaha.
I've got nth to blog. I wonder what I miss out.......(well, i duno what I am writing already)

Retail therapy works! YEAPIE, but having to spend a few hundred dollars just to feel better is a bit wasteful ya? but hey it's ONLY a few hundred dollars. U can't get this gigantic throw-all-you-want bag for less than a thousand. At least not at Gucci, not at LV. But, maybe at Poccilini la...hahahahah. Ok very bad. :P Well, no one says it's ugly for the moment. Anyways, I like it can liao la.
I am in my bf's car!! I love to surf net in car....hehe. Gona go for some foodie with fluffy again! tata.

For a very long time, I haven had such a wonderful Saturday. Woke up at 715am (early dan weekdays!) for my driving lesson at the other side of the island. I am quite a skilled driver already laaaa :P Test is just round the corner! Den i met jQ boy at his house, cos I had 2 long hours to kill before heading for Shunji Matsuo. Well, it didn't turn out as disastrous, or rather as futuristic, as the last 2 times. I think I just need to be very firm as to what I don't wan. So now my hair is normally straight, short and boring.
Met Connie and Kaimin to spend the afternoon at Botanical Gardens with my lovely Fluffy. Kaimin decided to call him BISCUIT since he responds to this much more positively than his own name. HAsss. Babe took many photos of my little one. *she's gona transfer to me soon* Fluffy a.k.s Biscuit had soo much fun chasing after pigeons and playing with little kids. The three girls were even more exhausted at the end of the session. Soo, at about 7 we drove to Crown Centre at Bukit Timah for some western food, while Fluffy lay comfortably on my lab. Had lamb chop which was sooo tender. I will go back there again :) Den it was dessert at this dessert bar at Serence Centre. The ice-cream was reasonably priced and very delicious. We had soursop and black glutinous flavour, but didn't get a chance to try the teh tarik one. *Fluffy was on my lab once again!* After filling our stomach with delightful food, three of us (oops, 4) went to pick Ling up and off we went to West Coast mac. Walked Fluffy for a lil while, and den again we sat down for some food and drinks. I feel like a complete glut. ^__^ but enjoying every moment of being one. Had a great day today....all my worries diminished into thin air.
I'm looking forward to my leave. And hopefully, this month will end with a high note. *wink*

Today's slightly better, but in the morning it was still bad. I think my imagination is really too wild, and it's been a long time since I felt so negative and outa control of myself. Been confident, and positive. Where had all these gone to? Well, I guess things are getting better now, cos I realise I was my OWN enemy. Thinking far too much.
Well, I have just decided to go back to the girl I used to be. First step: rebond my hair tml! I know it's short la, but I just hate how my hair curls at the back. It's just too 'auntie'. I hate how the red looks too....hmmmmm. I don like it. ok, cheers to me....
Bringing Fluffy to the Botanical Gardens tml with Kiki and Connie. :) I hope they wont torture my baby. heeee.

Feeling slightly better. Went over to HJ's house for some video viewing. I realise I've not seen myself dance for a long, and I chanced upon the last millenium comp I had. Actually I realise my dancing was quite clear....and I want my hair back again, looks so much neater. I dono if I have the chance to dance latin again. But if I have the chance to compete again, I would wanna have long hair again. N gona be cleaner~ And I gona do well. I know I can. :)
Siew Lim also told me, good things need to wait. And in life, there is no guarantees and that I have to be patient. She is right.
