oh dear Lord how I’ve fallen behind! I almost forgot about today’s entry as well, and am only saved by a last minute metal reminder!
.
Gah. I’ve had a coupla crazy days, and have a crazy 2 weeks ahead! My schedule is packed to the brim, people. The worst thing is I have to meet some people (that “have” was more like a *HAVE*) but have utterly no time to meet them. I ended up scheduling my Friday night like so:

- Finish my thingum at 2100
- Meeting a friend at 2100
- Meeting another friend at 0000
.

Saturday has been similarly allocated too. Shit.
.
So you will pardon me for lapsing on blogging once in awhile? =) Pretty please? Heh. Afterall, I *am* only 3 entries away from meeting my target! =)) YAY!! Let’s hang in there, guys!
.
Question for you today: Has anyone watched American Horror Story? Thoughts/opinions/feelings? =))

with fangwei after my surprise! =)

.

Well hello there. As promised, I’ll be continuing my recap of my wonderful day from the previous post =)
.
After wanyi appeared looking lost, and after I had “overcome my shock”, I asked wanyi what she was there for, and she said she was there for a friend’s engagement/proposal party in one of the hotel rooms! So I acted really curious and asked if we could go up with her.
.
Jaytee said she’d rather wait downstairs for YW, but I asked her to come up with me as I didn’t want to be the only uninvited guest there. Being the good friend she is, she obliged. We got up to the room, and Wanyi opened the door and walked in, saying, “Hey, I brought some friends, hope it’s ok..” and I inched in saying something to the extent of, “Uhm hi, sorry wanted to take a look..” and pulled Jaytee in with me.
.
After a beat, everyone jumped out of their hiding places (mostly behind curtains and inside closets) popping crackers and saying SURPRISE! (Yea, that’s right, “saying”, not “yelling” lol) Then we burst into the Happy Birthday song for her and proceeded to spend the rest of the afternoon taking crazy pictures (like some of those you saw in the previous post)..
.
The day wasn’t over yet, but I had no clue what was planned. I’d only thought that we were going to hang out and chill out, playing games or just chatting.. Then, Rachel asked me if I wanted to go to church with her and Vivien. Since I’d not been to St Bernadette before, and this presented me a much more convenient option to go to church, I said yes.
.
Church was really great, the church of St Bernadette was really nice, and their choir and lectors were really great too. We headed back to the hotel to meet up with the rest before going for dinner together.. As we were heading back, Vivi texted the rest to inform them that we were returning (which I thought was very normal), then we hung out in the lobby for awhile coz vivi needed the toilet (which might have been a stalling tactic, I don’t know, lol). When we went up, rachel passed me the keycard and told me to open the door first, as I was walking a bit faster and ahead of them.
.
I opened the door and could see that it was dark inside, and everyone seemed to be missing/hiding, so I just laughed and accused them of being idiots for trying to pull a trick on us, then I walked back out of the room. Rach and Vivi were like, “Why? What happened?” and I was all, “They’re trying to trick us, the losers!” Then they got me to open the door again and go into the room, and I did, and then I saw a 2nd cake and i was all o.0… It took about 5 seconds for it to dawn on me that hey, it was my turn! haha.
.
So yea, we had a good time, jaytee presented me my gift (she knew about surprising me but did not know it would be that day until after we surprised her and the others told her)
.
All in all, a rather successful day of 2 surprises! We headed off for a scrumptious dinner at Irodori, across from our hotel, and had a wonderful evening too =) I’ll let the pictures do the talking now =)
.

i promised a nice recap entry about my wonderful weekend and here it is! Hopefully a brief recap, though. =P
.
Here’s basically what happened – we’d planned to surprise my dear friend Jaytee at a hotel where she was attending a wedding. A room in that hotel had been booked as the site of FUN for that day. Wanyi and I turned up to find mastermind YW in the hotel with her brother (Gege) blowing balloons, so we helped out.
.
When it was time to get Jaytee – more like stall her, actually – I was sent down to distract her. I came up with a story on the fly, after having gone to the ballroom and seeing that there were several weddings/solemnizations that day. While looking for Ms Jaytee, I briefly caught sight of one of the notices they had put up for the events. Couldn’t find her there, so i headed off to look for her at the pick-up point. I spotted her there with a mutual friend (turns out I knew a few of the people who’d attended the wedding with Jaytee) and approached them. Jaytee was SHOCKED. Of course, she said, “So qiao!”, which was our catchphrase for whenever something coincidental happened (loooooooong backstory to this).
.
She asked me what I was doing there, and I was all, “Oh i’m here for my friend’s wedding solemnization! What are you doing here?” She told me about the wedding I already knew about and I acted duly surprised. She probed me for some details about the solemnization I “attended” and I just gave the name of the bride and said she was a friend from my Uni. I also lied and said I was waiting for my parents to pick me up from the pick-up point, which was where I saw her. -__-”
.
After letting the rest know that I was with her (via Whatsapp), I was rather worried that the others (who were running late and weren’t there yet)  might run into her if we continued to stand there, so after our mutual friend left, I griped about my parents saying they’d be late and told Jaytee that we should go back to the ballroom.
.
When we got up to the ballroom, she started talking about the solemnization that I had “attended”, mentioning that we were rather noisy in our celebrations.. I said, “Yea, they’re the ah beng (rowdy) group of friends la.” She nodded along with me, and as we passed the ballroom of the wedding i’d “attended” (the guests were all milling about since the meal was over), I mentioned to her that I’d seen some people I don’t really like, so told her that we should avoid eye contact and walk quickly.
.
We hung out at the ballroom for awhile, chatting (she kept talking about how amazingly coincidental it was and I kept agreeing with her) while I frantically checked with the others via Whatsapp to see if they were ready. Funny story here about how she told YW, who was supposed to meet her at the pick-up point, that she had run into me, and how it was “so cool!”. YW played along, asking what I was doing there etc. Gullible Jaytee said I was there for another wedding. It was quite awesome lol.
.
Finally, the others were ready and I could take her up! After bringing her to the toilets to stall for more time, walking past “my friend’s wedding” again (this time saying that everyone I knew had left already), we went to wait for a lift. Problem was, I didn’t have a keycard that would take me up to the hotel room, so I frantically texted them to bring a keycard down too. Trouble was, I’d already told her, “Let’s go”, and she’d assumed we were going downstairs to wait for my parents, so I had to keep pretending not to see all the lifts that were going down.
.
Then, a lift going down opened and she spotted it and walked towards it… I hung back, trying to stall, until I was saved… The wedding party of the wedding Jaytee had just attended turned up at the lift lobby, and because I also knew the couple in question, I stalled and made small talk! I also got the opportunity to congratulate the bride – whom I’m really truly happy for =)
.
Thankfully, not long after the bridal party had left, Wanyi’s lift (i had whatsapped her to ask which lift she was taking, since there were about 10 lifts at the lobby) arrived, and she walked out. I acted really shocked to see her, and Jaytee frowned so much that her face almost collapsed upon itself.
.
.
Anyhow, for fear of being too long-winded, I’m going to stop now and let’s just say that we had a really successful surprise for Jaytee. We also had a really successful early birthday surprise for me too, later that day, but that’s another story for another day, which I’ll probably continue tomorrow. For now, let’s let the pictures do the talking!! =))

.
.
.
Now, I’m not going to liveblog my tv shows, just gonna put up a summary of my thoughts for each show’s premiere:
.
Glee:
highlights:
anything Wemma-related was actually very interesting and funny
blaine/klaine duh!
tina having more lines
I did not like the Skanks. I’m sorry.
I did not quite like Sugar Motta either. I like the witty writing, but not her.
.
.
Now, Modern Fam. In a word (or three), Awesome As Usual. I loved all the crazy antics. I liked the guy who hit on Alex. I love how Dylan basically is already totally a Dunphy man. He fits in with the likes of Luke and Phil! Gloria’s singing – glorious as always.. I loved the comic timing of all of them. Luke’s lost weight!! Yay for Phil being manly. Yay for Claire being right. Yay for Cam’s really “happy” celebratory dance and banner. lol. I LOL-ed way too much during the 2 eps.
.
.
I’m holding off on Criminal Minds until I finish Seasons 5 and 6 (i’ve watched like, half of each lol). So shush! And I’m looking forward to Fringe. And TBBT!
.
Ahh tv shows. It’s like coming back to an old friend. =) What tv shows do you watch and did you like the premieres? =)

almost forgot to do my daily blog today! heh
.
i’ve been pretty excited about the upcoming tv season! not that there’s anything new i’m looking forward to (apart from American Horror Story or whatever the name of Ryan Murphy’s newest show is..).. I’ve heard about Thomas Gibson (love him from Criminal Minds) guesting on the new 2 and a Half Men.. So i’m kinda intrigued..
.
Looking forward to new seasons from CM, MF, TBBT, Fringe, Glee, etc!! Hehe.
.
Lately, i’ve been quite crazy about a few songs, one of which being “Dance: Ten Looks: Three” heh. Wonder which of you can tell me why… =P
.
Alright, ciao guys! =)

oh when I was at the massage place, I was very seriously considering putting up a protected Rated post on my internal monologue..
.
but now I can’t remember the details, and I thank God for that. This time, my thoughts revolved around my gladness that I’d showered, my OCDness about her touching, say, my back, after she’d kinda rubbed the soles of my feet.
.
And there was too much oil, as always. but the most disconcerting difference this time around has got to be the, uhm, sounds that I sorta involuntarily made.
.
it was nothing like Monica (Friends)!! It was just little contented “Mm”s that were the result of excessive exhaling through closed lips. Something like that.
.
Ok there seems to be no clean way to explain that. Whatever it is, massagetimes was good. Case closed.
.
.
How was your day? =)

I am going for a massage again this evening. Wish me luck, and some higher power please grant my brain peace. Maybe i’ll fall asleep =) Whee!
.
.
Oh masseuse, please use less oil. Thanks.
.
Just a really quick update today.. Have not really had much happen lately (that I wanna share) heh. Love y’all, ciao!!

don’t have time to really blog properly, so I’ll do a really quick recap of my weekend
.
i managed to meet up with my dearest “sisters” Jennifer and Shirin on Saturday! =) We had a short span of 2 hours to catch up, since everyone’s really busy and all! It was really great to catch up on each other’s lives and relive some crazy memories from when we were 12.. heh.
.
I also spent some quality time with my family over the weekend, which I found to be very therapeutic and healing. In short, I had a really good weekend =) I wish all weekends could be like this!
.
How was your weekend? =) Ciao and see you all tomorrow! =)
