The Letter Meme (meme post #7, I think)
November 26, 2008
Before I do the meme, I just wanted to ramble about my thoughts (that you all so love to listen to, ha ha). :)))) I really am dreaming of heading up to Cameron Highlands with a stack of good books, settle down in the apartment we have there, and read for the rest of the holidays. HOWEVER, knowing my erratic attention span, I will soon be longing for the hustle and bustle of PJ & KL, and the lure of dancing. Maybe, the brief moments of silence, solitude and peace are what city people secretly long for, but cannot get used to… A “slow” amidst the rushing pace of life around us.
I also wonder why I’m so harsh in a certain aspect of my life, and why I can’t be any softer, or perhaps, weaker and just give in. :/ It’s difficult when you think you’ve got to be strong, move on, and not allow yourself to make the same mistakes. I just can’t. We have a problem here.
Also, celebrated Jonathan Lee’s birthday today (25th November, yes I’m bloggin’ after midnight) ! :) Puppy turned 19. Lilian, Elvyna, Rachel, Joey, Benedict, Wei Phin & I had a surprise birthday gathering for him at Chili’s 1 Utama. There was a certain waitress who wasn’t very pleasant, but puppy seemed to have enjoyed himself, and nothing could beat the grin on his face when the cake arrived. :))) Gave him the Bible that Jo & I bought for him. Glad you guys could make it for the celebration! Once again, HAPPY BIRTHDAY PUPPY!!! JO & I LOVE YOU LOTS!!!!! :DDDD MAAAAAAAAAAK~
Now, onto the meme. Tagged by Cecilia! Click to see, it’s long. Kinda fun. I tag Rae, Dea, Faye, Dustin, and Brian.

“A Grand Night for Singing” LAUNCHED!

Today (or rather, yesterday, since I’m blogging after midnight) was the OFFICIAL LAUNCH of the broadway musical medley I’m part of, called A Grand Night for Singing!

See website for more details.
As for my studying progress, it’s trundling along. Summative on the 20th of June. I took on another singing engagement on the 17th. Mum looked at me when I told her, then smirked and told me she knew I was a workaholic. Dum dee dumm~
