Thus closes another chapter on another semester. I never imagined the day would finally come. Not surprising, after almost three years in uni, there’s a time when you start to tire of semester after semester, doing the same things. Now the fun bit- charting out the chronology of the next few months’ break. Ideally would be to go somewhere on a holiday, like Greece. Totally random I know, but I should reserve some big idea like Greece for after I graduate J.

Today 25th is my second month-versary with Gavin. Pity we can’t spend it together, but we will soon when I’m back to KK. Not every moment is bliss for us; a relationship entails its ups and downs. Sometimes I wonder if my faith can withstand our relationship, at times I’m amazed that we’ve come this far, even though its not that far, but each new thing counts for us. We’ve done a lot of stuff together, things we’ve never done with other people, and we intend to keep on finding new things to try together.
The last time we met was a flurry of interesting activities together, each of those days; memorable. It consisted of three-day marathon dates. First was a day at Aquaria KLCC, but for starters, he brought me to a surprise lunch- California Pizza House! We ordered a starter each; he had soup of the day, and I had a huge Focchacia roll. I didn’t expect it to be that huge, but he did warn me. We shared a huge Meat Lover’s pizza together- fitting for us meat lovers. And yes, we had lots of leftovers. Then we went to see the fish. It felt like Singapore Aquarium all over again.

Aquaria! Kids all over again.
The second day began with lunch at Pavilion- Japanese. We both had noodles, me as usual with my favourite tempura side dish. This was also the day I learnt the walking route from Sungei Wang- Times Square- Pavilion. It saves money on monorail ticket. Before going home we both decided to have our hair cuts together, so we went for the quick cuts- RM15 for 15 minutes in Sungei Wang. I have never had a haircut with a date before, and I must say, it felt special, walking out of a shop more self conscious and at the same time, lovingly examining the others’ much altered appearance.
Happy food face!
After lunch. His body size is perfect :)
The last day, and also the day before he left KL was the day I was looking forward to all weekend. We met at the monorail to ride together to Bukit Bintang, and he surprised me with the best greeting ever! He jumped from behind a pillar at the station and ran to me with outstretched arms. He looked so happy that I squealed with laughter and ran into his arms and we hugged tight as though we’d been reunited after one year. We had a cheap lunch at Lot 10’s Chinese food court- a place with so much good food that I took too long to decide. We ate beef noodles and took pictures of each other tackling long parts of our food with chopsticks.
MMMMM.... Oyster sauce veg
Such an expert, half the noodles at one go
Then to True Harmony for my first ever spa! I was really excited at the prospect of being pampered all over for two hours, and thought it would be the best preparation for the final assignments’ battle field. I was right.

Ok, back to what’s been going on for me. I don’t know where to start, and what to say. But let’s begin by saying that I’ve been spending most of my time devoted to Y Gallery, the online art gallery started by Gavin. It is my beloved Tamagochi, especially our coming first event! If you guys have been following, our first event is open to all would love to express themselves in whatsoever art form in free handmade notebooks. It’s called ‘My Mind’ notebook exhibition, and we’ll be exhibiting all the notebooks in Annexe Gallery from 28th February 2011 to 6th March 2011. The notebooks will be on sale or auctioned, and so far, the response has been immense and basically, not what we expected. It’s surprising that so many people like the idea so much. But anyway, because of this, I have my first business card J.
Too proud of these cards- beyond words
Also, I’ve been hit by a bout of sickness these few weeks, but will name a couple of the worst ones. I’ve had the worst experience of food poisoning, which hopefully will be the first and last one in my whole life. The pain was excruciating, even getting my tattoo done can’t compare to it! I was weak for days after and resulted in food phobia. My body broke down halfway with the final assignments, I was down for a few days but had to get up after that to continue with the rest.
Being sick means being wide awake at night
I’ve just had my first photoshoot yesterday. Well it’s not exactly a first, but it feels like a first professional one. I had an awesome time in front of the camera, but I definitely need more practice. I’ve been pondering if I should tap into the acting scene, starting off with commercials or orientating myself with the camera by photo shoots. I found a fondness for acting while doing my assignments, and I want to see how far I can go in acting. I love the fact that acting frees the self by expression, and the very thought of filling an invented role- and doing a good job at that- the ending result is very satisfying. A sort of self exploration project. My ultimate dream is to act in movies some day.

Am really looking forward to the holidays in KK. It would probably be my last 3 month extravaganza before I officially start my career as a graduate (after June). Can hardly wait to see everyone back home! I want to cook, party, go to the beach, see all the lovely KK folk, and eat all the KK food that I miss so dearly. Shall stock up on my reading material too. Have got a feeling this time around in KK would be very memorable indeed…
Happy Holidays!
