又是情人节

又是情人节了。今年，他以狗狗为主题的情人节礼物整整早到了一个星期，害我情人节正天反而跟他嚷着说怎么没收到东西。这个傻蛋。但，真的挺感动的，因为他 花费的心思和时间。如他所说，在一起这么久了，每年的生日，情人节，纪念日，圣诞等等等，都得想新的点子，年过一年，开始江郎才尽，点子越来越难想，每年 的这些特别日子，都快变差事节了。

在一起三年了，一起度过的情人节，生日，却好像只有一次。而且还是没在一起的时候。两地相隔，他说，没关系，只要两颗真心在一起，就能互相取暖。而我觉得呢？节日还好吧，反正就这么一天。难度的，是那些失意寂寞的时候。。。

他的生日要到了，还是快想想，这回又该送些什么。。。

CNY & 华裔 05

It’s Chinese New Year again, I luckily have a full week of holidays starting for Eve, to Valentine’s… This year, CNY passed by especially quickly and peacefully…only visited 3 houses on the 1st, went to the temple to appease the god of the year and came home to play mahjong, my new obsession of the year :) I seem to really inherit my Dad’s genes…

Visited the Sentosa Flowers on the 2nd to keep Mom happy, I was very unimpressed though, the exhibition displays mostly the same flowers we see around HDBs everyday, there was quantity, but not much quality. Compared to the spring blossoms in Boston and Beijing, the exhibition 真的不怎么样. There was, however, a wonderful display of orchids to hold up the nation’s pride, with a carpet of delicate lavender and pink flowers.

Went to Sim Lim to buy a new laptop on the 3rd, vomited a whole lot of cash for this machine which I’m typing on right now, way more than I wanted to pay for a new notebook. As L said, when I set a cash limit, I tend to spend twice of it. Haiz… when will I ever learn to control my spending?!?!

Had dinner with G on the 4th, and received two great x’mas pressies/trip souvenirs that I really liked, hope he liked the ones I gave as well. Nearly lost my hp, but saved by G’s long legs. L stayed over for the night and we had a fun sleepover the way only girls do, with facial masques and long chats… Love these sleepovers…

Watched 2 华裔plays, 十三角关系 and 今夜女人说相声. I did catch all the punch lines and jokes for Menage a 13, but I certainly don’t understand the riot of laughter it received! The jokes all seem pretty cliché and dead, and paired with somewhat mediocre acting, they only garnered a nod from me…Total Women, however, was a different class all by itself. Was extremely entertained and impressed, with marvelous acting and amazing talent, it was definitely worth the extremely expensive ticket price (which I didn’t pay as I got away with the student concession). The 泼妇骂街 is definitely a classic.

Sunday was spent lazing… finally managed to do a bout of work, plus the weekly gym session… life starts to return to the daily routine… with Practicum at a notorious school looming…

Still, ignore the bad HORRORscope warnings and look forward to the good year ahead!
