It only gets harder the more that you know.

the hols have never felt so good before. especially with my mother away in hk for a week, which means i could be out every single day with noone nagging. the only bad thing that happened was gramps being hospitalised. he had been having pains in his elbow for some while now and it hit him hard while he was away in thailand on a holiday with grans. now the doc finally diagnosed him with some virus attacks which could be critical if it is not taken seriously.
he was immediately sent to the hospital the moment he arrived in singapore. the first look at him caused me to cry like a newborn. he was so so thin, not like the lively and fit gramps that i know. im glad he's on his route to recovery now. this might not be a bad thing, at least now he learns to take better care of himself and could quit smoking as well. i see it as a blessing in disguise.
mum bought me lotsa stuff from hk. she finally got me my birthday present. she was complaining about how cold it was and how she didnt get enough things for herself. claiming that im the one who benefits most from her trip, which i think its perfectly alright since i didnt tag along.
had a surprise birthday bbq party for baby and lik at east coast on fri. had quite alot of fun chatting with the old mates. gotta thank all those that helped me make organise the whole event and bought the food as well. sorry for the limited food for there was really a low budget. we were supposed to leave at nine but we ended up night swimming and having to bath and all. which really makes me feel like whining once i start talking about it. can you believe that the toilet only has got one bathing cubicle and there were lizardS and huge dragonfly inside? thanks to ziyan who chased them away and waited outside for me while i bathed.

oh yes, i thought my wish to watch disney on ice this year would not come true but thanks to sweetums for the wonderful "surprise"! haha. it was really sweet of you to buy me the tickets! it was an all princess one!! but i still think the beauty and the beast one was much better. maybe because they only concentrate on one story. the weird thing was mulan was one of them? is she a princess? sadly, i didnt get myself any souvenier. just couldnt bear to spend that much on a toy.
