^doubts^

My first foray into hiphop both lyrical and erm..street? Sigh...and I had to pick the most difficult choreography...Difficult choreo I can cope but given the lack of time...sigh...I'm trying but seriously, I'm not confident.

There's this sense of foreboding hanging over my head. I am sure for DU we can get it down pat but for RHazz.....my last experience with lack of practice was a disaster. Now, I can't get rid of that same fear...just had a horrid sleep this morning cause the steps and song are haunting me...

I'm trying but will I be good enough??

^I love Holidays!!^

16th Feb 07 - the start of my mid-term holidays. 'Coincidentally' the Chinese New Year celebrations occurred simultaneously. My theory: that ain't no coincidence, it's my cheapo uni at work again - depriving us of our much needed rest. sigh...for fear of being sued or worse, adding to my ever-growing collections of B-s & C+s, I had better not mention where. heh.

Anyhoos, CNY is the same as always. Visitation sites never change, ang bao money collected also no change..hmm...alone again too. sad. Would have thought this period without K could have been spent better like you know...asserting & enjoying my freedom. haha...as if.

But, I did get to spend some precious time with friends and family. For starters, day before CNY eve was a great evening of food, drinks, music and wonderful company. I started the evening by being a glorious 45mins late as I had really bad luck that day. No no..they ain't excuses. Try falling in the bus, missing 2 trains and getting squashed by the mrt station's ez-link gates all in 2 hours..sigh. What a start to the evening.

Food at Basil Alcove was yummylicious and well worth the wait! We then headed over to Timbre and luck was with me for once. We got a seat right away and the band was warming up to play. By the time the drinks came, the music was ready to rock (literally). Talk bout good timing. :D The outdoorish feel's great for chilling (on a cool night). Pity the band's second set was way too loud for me liking.

~Pei Shan & Eric's chin :P~

~Wee Wee & moi~

On a sadder note, my dear parents have left for their month long trip to Pattaya - the new workplace of me daddy. My mom's helping him settle in, i.e. clean & pack up the house, nag his ears off, etc. We sent them off at the new Budget Terminal and my goodness, it really does look budget alright..talk about bare and ugly. Oh well, guess you can't complain. But the menu at Han's was really quite interesting...

~Han's Menu (& daddy's hands)~

I'll be joining papa in May! weehoo!! Another holiday to look forward to!

^a bored night, an interesting find^

Was really bored as I'm attempting to waste my life away. Rather, unable to put myself to bed due to the upcoming CNY hols. Thus, spent 5 secs googling my name and guess what I got??!!

Goodness, that was so long ago....

The 10th National Schools Bowling Championship. Those were the days....

If I should roll out my bowling balls and blow the dust off them now, I don't believe I would be able to carry even the 11lbs spare ball. heh.

Oh well, the good ole days..........

To those who didn't believe me when I said I bowled... *bleh*

P.S. I'm no. 50. shh.....

^Valentine's 2007^

The ennies celebrated Valentine's a day earlier this year unlike the last. We thought we'd be a wee bit smarter and avoid being one of the Vdae suckers. But alas, we found ourselves in another group - the idiots avoiding being a Vdae sucker but still celebrating it. *sigh*

But hey! I'm a girl...i'm entitled to a day of romance ya? heh.

Anyhoos, we found ourselves a place at BROTH - Bar Restaurant on the Hill, Duxton Hill to be exact. I decided on this little quaint restaurant as my dear friend Eric works there. Trust me, it's reeaallly good knowing someone like him. *winkz*

~the lovely cobbled street it's on~

~our view for the night~

The ambience was nice, the food was fantastic and the company...delightful.

Valentine's Day is a day for expressing (rather explicitly I believe) one's love for another. I've heard stories of sleepless nights for gifts preparation, hundreds of dollars for bouquets of flowers, extravagant room decoration, etc. Sadly, I didn't receive a present nor a flower (unless you count a peacock feather which doesn't even belong to me...). However, yesterday was to me, the most meaningful Vdae ever.

We may have only gone for a simple dinner but, his actions for that day spoke volumes to me. For not being upset and angry at my late arrival (at yet another special occasion), for tolerating fatigue and gastric, for being so compliant at my over zealous photo-taking....

*Happy Valentine's darling*

^lucky me.^

Had a good talk with K today.
You know those kind of talks where you let everything out and...he somehow makes you feel all better?
The kind that makes you really thank God for bringing him into your life.

Who he is and the things he says....sometimes amazes me. It is totally unexpected and just takes your breath away.

Today, he managed to squeeze my heart tight. Again. Only twice in this past 22months has he done so. The first time he asked and..tonight.

Penny, you're a lucky girl.

~with love~

Hmm....

To xiao, jootz, jon, kel, cheryl, SH & celine - you guys were the sweetest. The cakes were the most...unique. :D And candles-blowing was a blast (jootz, you just wait...). Altho I had an exam the next day, you guys kept me company and helped me laugh my stress away. Will always remember you peeps.

To hui & serene - it was a really pleasant surprise. Thanks darlings for cabbing all the way down and delivering my first cake. :)

To PW - thank you for being you. Your gifts were the sweetest.

To Ken - thanks for call tho you were a million miles away. Love ya.

To my family - for travelling across the whole island just to celebrate with me, you guys deserve a big fat kiss *muakz*

Thank you everyone. I am officially 21. *weehoo*

^a new beginning^

It's 4am in the morning and I've decided to type my first blog entry. *applause*

2 blogs have come and gone, and to the priviledged few who were privy to those, I welcome you to a new journey in Penny's life. I have now officially joined the blogging community!! *applause applause*

The reason for doing so?

I am utterly jealous of my *bimbz blogs - Jess's & Hui's - and have thus decided to create one of my own. Or rather, appoint my godsis too. heh. Thanks Sha...it's real pretty. :)

Thus, with this blog, I shall (attempt to) update the darlings in my life about my life. Unfortuately, I foresee an utterly boring, hopelessly outdated future for this diary BUT nag at me long enough and I'm sure I'll type something out for you dearies...

'Nuff said. Time to start the music pumping.
