Kudos to Jeff, we'd a blast this year!

Catch phrase of 2005: Rotten Apples.

We're getting married too... =)

Hi guys... havent seen you all in a while, sorry me and Wendy were unable to attend the christmas party at Jeff's place as my close friend's dad just passed away on christmas eve so we went to accompany him during the wake the following day =(

At any rate we'd like to you all know we'll be finally tying the knot after 7 years of running and hiding (kidding =) on Feb 25th next year.

It'll be at Life Bible-Presbyterian Church, 9A Gilstead Road at about 5pm, so do drop by if you can...

There will be dinner after that at a hotel we've booked, so let me know directly if you're coming so i can prepare the summons, ermm... i mean invites!

Hope to catch up with u all soon,

Sam & Wendy

Bye Sandy

While she's off to Vietnam, do visit her blog for updates.

So when we visiting her huh??

Tuesday, 11 October 2005

Every now and then...especially after my submissions, I would surf around and read everyone's blogs. ..yes, Tsush, I am one of the bo liao people that read your blogs...and also Ivan..Darren...Ben...Daniel...Edmund..anyone I know that i can get my hands on...that's my pathetic architectural student life for you..


Well, I think this is my second post here. The first one was when I joined the blog which was last year. Time really flies. One of the reasons why I don't post is I keep forgetting my password to the blogs and how do you get photos up here...it's such a process! Of course, there is the other side of me who doesn't want to confront my inner voice. ..they should stay inside..when you verbalise your thoughts espeacially your fears...they sometimes become real and an obsession.Wonder what would hubby think if he knew I was writing blogs....hehe...who says you have to tell your partner everything...of course, if that came from him, I wouldn't be too amused...

Anyway, I still can't believed that I did tie the knot after these 3 months. Actually to tell you the truth, during the soleminisation, we were supposed to sign some papers. Under the scrutiny of so many relatives, especially my newly acquired ones, I just signed it. And so, I always joke with hubby..." You know, I don't really know what I signed that day. Hope it was something good. I should have read the papers before I signed them, huh?"

Seriously, marriage has been so far lovely. I think we are still at the blissful stage coz we don't have mortgage and screaming babies yet...Well, eventually we'll train the babies not to scream in the future...hehe..but I think I'll still enjoy enjoy it years down the road. The events of July was very surreal. I do take out my marriage certificate which I brought to Australia and read it....hmm....my name and his name....just to be sure it actually happened. That's what happen when you stay apart too long. ..every few months, you have to say goodbyes...you start thinking your life back home was an imagination. Anyway, I think this year will be the last time staying apart..

That brings me to....one final examination/presentation before I get my Bachelor of Architecture. I think it's a very daunting affair with all the independent examiners involved. Everyone's quite stressed and intimidated. However, I think I manage to find something that I can be commited to and love for the last 6 years. And I did learn a lot in this few years compared to my college days. Haven't been doing too badly for the final year either (considering all the sideshows that I performed!), I really hope I'll make it through rather scarred free. Wish me luck, okay? Oh yes, I can't build a house for you...although I can give you free unofficial architectural advice if you trust me enough...:)

I am looking forward to December...will miss Hari Raya for the first time since I haven't finish exams.( It' s the fasting month now!)...looking forward to attend my first Lunar New Year...although hubby was whining...."Hmm...can we skip it?"..and I responded, " Come on, give me a break...I am trying to show solidarity with you here..." So I hope tis year will end up nicely...

Well, think I wrote enough...hope everyone is well.till then, see you another year? well, maybe sooner:)...

Missing my student life!

Apparently, this is a glimpse into how Singaporeans hold house-warming parties over in America.

Bleh, it's quite a big place I must say, for a 1-bedroom? But ugh, she can do with better interior designing. Can't blame her for missing out on those "home makeover" shows, since she JUST got her cable.

Arrrgh...I wanna get cable back in aus!!!

BTW, is it just me, or does the girl right at the beginning of the clip remind you of Evelyn from kids central?
