live, love, laugh. Just the way I like it.
My best friend John gave me this early birthday present last weekend.
"Oh God, why does he have to remind me.."
It's a card with lots of words of encouragement and I really like it.
"How did you know I've got a Marilyn Monroe portrait in my room?" :D
Was also talking to Lydia about the coming week, it's full of weddings! looking forward to all the travelling though. Initially my friends were a little worried about how I'm going to tackle the coming events what more so many weddings to attend but seriously, what's new? Throw me more engagements, pregnancies and weddings. I'm getting bored of them.
"What's new this weekend? any more engagements, weddings, arranged marriages, or pregnancies?"
yea, you're right.
Speaking of weddings, i never knew..it was such a complicated thing =S
Even the schedule is filled with colours, we were blinded looking at this.
was also inspired to make a list of the things i've achieved and should be happy about..during the past twenty three years of my life,
