*Michelle's Blogging..*

Name:
Location: Singapore

A Singaporean girl who graduated from a Medical College in the UK and currently working as a doctor, spending most of my years abroad burying myself amongst medical books, speaking Queen's English and trying to adapt to life in Britain. But I still remain a true blue Singaporean who loves my plate of char kway teow and enjoys the sense of closeness when speaking "Singlish" to my fellow countrymen. Why "The Chinese Doctor"? Because that's what my patients call me since they don't know my name!

Early morning..not really early..but I think I should blog for a while before I bury myself among my pile of lecture notes.

Haven't blogged for a few days and it's during these few days that so many many many things happened. It just happened so quickly but at the same time, will hold a very impt place in my heart.

I broke up with Boon a few days ago. It was a very guilty thing to do because I have betrayed him and fell for another. Knowing that I should not do something like tt, I still did it. That's why I was so apologetic and guilty the whole issue. I understand that his feelings throughout the 4 years are true, and this break up will hurt him a lot more than ever, but all I could say is I'm sorry. There wasn't anything to explain because I was wrong from the very start.

He wanted to meet up with my new bf, so Jason and I went to have a coffee session with him. Jason said we'll solve this problem together and get it over and done with. I still do not know what the whole meeting was about and what was its purpose. I can't remember, but I only know I was boiling at certain intervals. I'm alright now. Enough said about that.

I took 24th May 2004 as the start of my rship with Jason, but he wantd 26th because it was the day we settled my past rship real officially. We're keeping it to 26th then.

Like all rships, the beginning is always sweet and this is no different. But everyday I'm touched by things he does for me or words he say. The sincerity, the confidence and the tone he used were just perfect. He wanted to do so many things for our rship even though it was just a start for us and I didn't even have to mention it. It's only been a few days and we've got parents' side settled, the rings he always wanted for us settled, hunt for couple watches which we can never feel good enough to be bought (either too ex or not nice..)

I have seen his parents. Lovely couple. Very young at heart, making me feel at home. They were ever ready so willing to chat with me and although I met them only once, felt as if I've blended in. His house seem to have become mine too...hahhaa.

Yesterday was his turn to see my parents. I brought him home and my whole family had a long chat over the dining table while having some food. Poor Jason, must have been stuffed by my parents..haha..he was eating almost non stop..lol..and he told me he is REALLY full...hahaha.

We went to search for our rings before we met my parents again in the evening to watch Troy. Went to a few places, but couldnt even find a suitable size tt suit. We couldn't afford the expensive ones from the jewellers, so we just have to make do with the normal silver ones, but even though it wasn't an expensive pair, I loved it a lot and will always treasure it. We made some engravements onto the ring and he wore them for me. It looked weird on my ugly fingers. I've never worn a ring before. Besides, I haven't totally got rid of my bad habit, but I'm more determined than ever to keep long nails and get a manicure done. I must try to make the ring look nice on my finger. My nails are growing now..bet it will be good enough in a few weeks' time and then I'll get something done about it.

Gosh..am really tired this morning. Wonder if it's the medication. Been feeling like that ever since I started on the new drug.

Probably stop my blog here for today...*stretch*

*Stretch*

Rise and shine to a sunday morning...I'm tired though.

Went for a wedding dinner last night at Merchant Court Hotel. It was the wedding dinner of my baby sitter's daughter. A family whom I spent many years with and formed a very close bond with since I was very young..hmm..around 2 or 3 I suppose..can't remember exactly how old I was.

The last I saw them was when my family and I paid them a visit at their place. But can't remember when that was now.

Anyway, it was great seeing them. And they were VERY VERY happy to see my bro and me. They were so shocked because Fred has grown so much since the last time he saw them. As for me, haha...the usuals.. "wah...yue da yue mei le.."...lol...*bhb* Hmm..wat did I wear..let me describe it here. I tied a half ponytail with a clip. Wore a simple plain black velvet long gown that has got this "V" cut at the back. Had simple make up on and my high heel sandals. Accessories were simple. Just diamond earrings, crystal hair clip and my much treasured 21st bday gift- my trilogy diamond necklace from dad n mum. I remember them telling me the 3 diamonds stand for the past, the present and the future. A very simple necklace, but it means a lot to me.

Ok, back to main topic..haha. This year's "gathering" had more new "members". Da gege remarried. His wife is a mauritian chinese. They're blessed with a very cute daughter who isn't shy with strangers. His wife's got good taste for getting him as a husband. Very outspoken, knowlegeable and intelligent high ranking army official. Er gege has got 2 daughters..both are SO SO PRETTY!!!! The elder one is super hyper and has got this pair of watery eyes, with long wavy black hair. Her younger sis looks like her. Definitely 2 potential chiobus. I wonder if her dad will make them marry some army officer one day..haha. San gege has put on weight..look so mature now..isn't the little lao gao I used to play a lot with. When he was younger, he and Fred seemed like best buddies cos they are both tooooo active. I'm sure his wedding will be next. He's got a steady gf already and have been together since uni days, so I'm sure I'll hear wedding bells soon. Hopefully, I'll be around to attend it.

Now for the bride and groom. It's my first time seeing the groom. Impression..very decent goody boy kind. The bride, of course is my beloved Qiuyu jiejie who taught me loads when I was young. She taught how to run, train stamina, make me luv sports, play the organ and draw. She's good at drawing and I won't remember the pretty girls she used to draw in her room instead of studying when she's actually supposed to do when Auntie Mama locked her up. She's so pretty now..so so so sweet looking. She really stole the limelight last night. Her hubby must be the envy of many guys last night. I think she will make a good wife..very understanding, gentle, pretty..a girl every guy will probably want to end up with..serious.

Dinner was 10 course one. Like every wedding, it was kicked off with a slide show showing their childhood to the present. Wasted..no me inside..haha.Then the bride and groom came in and walked to the stage. I actually cried when they did that. Dunno why manz, but I'm just so happy for her. Good thing no one saw my tears..hee.

I met many familiar faces and people who used to love me so much when I was under Auntie Mama's care. All of them were shocked to see me, and so were the old neighbours. It brought back many fond memories, and I just miss those days. By the way, forgot to mention that Auntie Mama looked the same manz! Never age. She look so glamorous last night. She wore a cheongsam (her figure not bad for a married woman manz..so slim) and got her hair permed...hard to describe..but I will give her 2 thumbs up. Perfect manz.

Ok..some little girl's fantasy now. Seeing the wedding..I also got this urge to get married..haha...shhh...*looks around*..but of course I'm too young now..haha

Shall end my entry here...*yawnz*...
