Star-Crossed.

 
Source: That's Normal


Who elso is in love with this? I just know I have to watch this just because Matt Lanter is in this. No regrets at all. I love seeing him in 90210, and I just can't get enough of him. So, I started to watch the show last week and I fell in love with Roman and Emery. And it is interesting how they are trying to make the Atrians(Aliens) and humans get along. Basically having this Atrian integration program hoping to make Aliens and humans get along. There are some twists here and there. It's pretty nice to watch, really.

So, go watch it if you have not! It is really nice!

More information to explain the show, you can read it here!
She explains the show better than I will.

(I know I just updated yesterday, but I'm just way too excited for Star-Crossed I just have to share it) 

Till then,
XOXO

His Peri'yappas' Birthday.

On 26th April 2014, I attended a function. It was my boyfriend's peri'yappa's 65th birthday. Happy Birthday, and we wish you good health!

Peri'yappa is Uncle in Tamil language, if you're wondering what it means. I had to google it, though I know I can just ask him personally. Sometimes, I just don't know what I'm doing? Lol. I had a nice time. It was held in Holiday Inn, yes it was really, really nice and grand! I had a really great time meeting his mothers'side of the family. 



Thank you for inviting me to the birthday dinner, I had such an amazing time there. Everything was so nice and the food is really good! Okay, I shall end it now. 

Till then, 
XOXO

Growing up.

Growing up. Such a big word for a small person like me. It feels that time does not wait for us at all. And it probably never will. And we all know that. I'm turning 23 this year and it is really scary in a way that I'm growing to be an adult and my mind still wishes I'm still in my teenage years, getting my diploma. As crazy as it sounds, I miss my schooling days. Yeah, just the friends that I get to hang out with and have fun and not worry about our common tests or our final exam until the last minute. Skipping classes and lectures halfway through, and only attending the lecture only towards the end of the semester just because tips will be given for the exams.

Admit it, at some point of time(when we were younger) we hang on to the hope that Peter Pan might fly into our room bring us to Never land and save us from growing up; just having fun in Never land with the lost boys. Oh, how I loved(Maybe I still do) Peter Pan when I was a kid. Also, maybe it is because of him. But oh well?

The thought of growing older, scares me. Especially after I got my Diploma, then reality starts to kick in. I began to realise that it is not easy to get a job. No, I do not wish to go to University, just yet as I have no intention of pursuing my degree. And I know things will not get easy because we have to start being independent. We have to earn our own pocket money. In Singapore, it is very hard to move out to get our own apartment once we're in our 20's, though that would be pretty awesome. Usually, we will apply for a house when we're ready to settle down. Housing is expensive here.

It took me 3 months of searching till I finally got a call and got a job. All thanks to my awesomest boyfriend ever! He helped me a lot with this and always motivating me throughout this process of job searching. I don't know how many jobs I applied for and how many resumes I sent, either I get no reply at all, or the job turned out to be way different than what was stated.

Working front-line is tough because I am a naturally shy and quiet person. But ever since I started working where I am now, I begin to open up and talk more to people, especially to the ones I don't really know. Meeting new people is a norm because it is a clinic after all, you're bound to meet new faces which most of the time, you will not remember by the end of the day. 

So yes, growing up is a hard thing to do, but it can be fun as well. On the bright side, it actually is nice earning your own money, being responsible paying your own bills(maybe not so much fun as time goes by), not depending on your parents that much financially.

Monday is tomorrow and I am trying not to let the blues get to me. Have a good week ahead!

Till then,
XOXO

Amara Sanctuary Resort

Yes, I am just blogging away in the middle of the night. It's 12am now and I just can't sleep for I don't know what reason! My brain just decides to 'oh hey, going to bed? How about no, let me make you think and reflect on life' and just by doing so, I just can't stop thinking of so many things now, the brain activity is just too strong, even I can't handle it right now. I think it's the fact that it is Monday, and I have work, that could contribute to me being unable to sleep. Okay Irah, enough already, no one cares! Stop whining! Haha..

Okay, I'm just going to go right in to saying that it is actually a really nice place to stay in. In case you're wondering what I'm talking about here, it is the staycation at Amara Sanctuary Resort in Sentosa.  Although it is a bit of a distance to walk from Imbiah Station, and there's nothing much to do once you're in the resort itself, the room is pretty awesome! It is quite spacious with a huge bed provided with an outdoor jacuzi as well. Also, there is like 3 different swimming pool that we could go to around that area whilst staying there. And we really made full use of it. It was really amazing! Gives you the feel of staying in like a beach house or something.
I enjoyed my stay in Amara together with 4 of my best people! Although it was a short Staycation, I really appreciate the time that all of us manage to set aside for each other. I might not talk much or open up much, I really enjoy each and every one of your company. It really means a lot to gather and have some girl time.
Also, I did manage to do things that I don't usually do! Like taking the skyride which scares the crap out of me because my feet is dangling and I can see everything, but now thinking back it was pretty silly to think that way(I have this thing about heights) because it was a really, really slow ride. The luge was fun as well, and the cable car was less intense than the skyride because it was covered and it was at night.
Okay well, I'm gonna try to stop thinking of things now and sleep.
Happy Monday people and have a good week!


Till then,
XOXO

When is My Turn? Am I ready yet?


Recently, my girlfriend, 1/5, got engaged. Look at how beautiful she is! I have been pretty much having all these engagements going on lately, not a lot, but a fair amount. Not to mention seeing my friends back from school posting pictures of their engagement/wedding. How fast time flies and we are all in the stage of starting a new life with our own partners. It just feels like not long ago, I just graduated from Polytechnic, trying to get a job.

Growing up is pretty scary, we all have to go through it anyway. It is not easy, you will have to learn the difficulty of having to manage your own finance. Then think of applying for a house when you know you and your partner is serious about each other, just because it takes ages for the house to be ready (3-4 years for BTO), which at the same time gives you time to save up and get ready for when you want to settle down just in time for the house to be ready. It is hard, however we try our best to overcome it. They say that once you turn 21, your age will catch up with you quickly. Sadly, it is true. Not a while ago in December I just turned 22, and now we are in the month of April, and I'll be turning 23 this year, oh how I wish Neverland really do exists. But it doesn't matter, no one can tell how old I really am because I am blessed with a young face and I'm stuck in a ten year old body. Yeah, yeah, I am small what-so-ever.

For me, I don't know if I'm ready, or if I am ever going to be ready for all of this. Getting engaged, getting married, sharing a life with another person. I don't think I can ever tell if I'm really ready for this. I just have to go along with it and plan it well. I don't know the first thing about engagement/wedding preparation, however, I learn a bit here and there while preparing for Kak Aishah and Huda's engagement. I pretty much get the picture of what is supposed to be done. As for the wedding part, I have 2 weddings before mine to look forward for some tips. It is fun no matter how stressful it gets.

When is my turn? My turn for what you might ask? My turn to get engaged. I would say, no rush on this one, don't get me wrong, it is pretty exciting, and yes, of course I can't wait for it to be my turn. Almost every girl wants this to happen. Our engagement, is different from any other engagement. We do not have the 'bend down on one knee' kind of engagement. We have a small mini ceremony whereby the eldest family member from the man side will place the ring onto the lady's finger. Accompanied with some gifts. 

So, when is my turn again? We're settling on next year (because boyfriend is really looking forward to it and well, so am I, obviously!). I will most definitely do it as simple as it may be. With just family members along with minimal group of friends. Because it is only engagement, I would just want within family members only. We'll have to see how the situation is. I am so very excited for this! Something I look forward to!

I hope you're having an amazing Sunday! 

Till then, 
XOXO
