Rants
i haven't been blogging since last friday, i think. so many things are simultaneously happening that's worth blogging, but i just don't know where to begin. there are some things that would go into too much of personal details which sometimes need to be siphoned out of the blog content - and that could make blogging rather tiring.

perhaps much of which is my refusal to accept that time is flying so quickly. adr is leaving for bristol in about a week's time and i've been trying to spend as much time as i can with him lately.

i know i'm going to miss him a lot, and his physical presence in singapore. yet, i believe distance does makes the heart fonder and hopefully, we will be drawn closer in getting to know each other in a different way from a geographical distance. i know that there are just some friendships that would be so special - that no matter where you be, no matter how long a break you might not be in touch with or no matter how long you don't see each other - you would still stick as close when you meet again. and if this is the kind of friendship i have been developing with adr, then im sure there is no fear. and i believe that such distance is a test of patience, friendship telepathy, mutual understanding and communication.

some skeptics have said that rs dont last over distance because they hold fast to their theory: out of sight, out of mind. but i believe that if we were to constantly place each other in the corners of our hearts and keep in touch using the latest communicative technologies like webcams, msn, skype, blogs, emails, all that distance wouldn't matter afterall.

i've been also thinking about my holiday plans to london to visit adr end of the year. it would be white christmas over at the other end of the world - a place where i've never been to. i've always wanted to travel and see the other places and understand a different culture and lifestyle. even though it will always take me extra challenging when it comes to cold weathers. haha, if u know me, i hate shivering cold winters. i guess it would just be lovely to spend christmas in an extraordinary way with a loved one next to a fireplace. but flying to europe is pretty costly. so much to save up on! i'd love to go.. really.. i do hope i could save up enough. if not, i'd have to shelf the plan till next year. aww...

i went to see the doctor on monday as i've been having a serious sore throat over the weekend. i never thought it was so bad until i went to take a Q at the doctors. doc said i have a serious throat infection - 3 ulcers in my throat. can you imagine how torturing it is to drink water, eat or even swallow? disgustingly painful. and i was down with flu too, think i caught a chill from the bad weather lately. and so, i was on MC for a day. i think what made falling sick a blessing was that TLC that adr showered me through the day. medicine made me drowsy and for the first time, i didnt wish to talk to anyone or for that matter, open my mouth. it just hurts! in times like these, i am just pretty thankful for the best invention in the world - MSN and email and internet!

i've been hooked onto facebook lately. seriously addictive. i actually joined facebook long time ago, but got pretty frustrated with its website interface and navigation - so i left it dormant for a long while. got back up again cos adr added me one fine sunday night and we both started adding more applications and more friends. i wouldn't have imagined i would be THAT hooked up by it, since it could be rather cumbersome to go on facebook every time to feed your pet, pat other people's pets, earn points to buy flowers and fishies for your friends, do mass superpokes or even just to add a friend. but the matter of fact is, i got hooked by it. i'd find myself logging on to office mail every morning and then to facebook to check out the newest updates. i guess i'll go there quite often, usually in the sleepy afternoons to keep myself awake. there are just too many things to explore up there... you should try it if you've not signed up!

and i'm glad it's friday today. many many activities to look forward to this weekend. lots of farewell parties, birthday parties for my godson and niece, dinners to attend... family and friends gatherings i'd say. will take lots of pictures.... :) and will blog more soon.
