thursday night : meeting my girls for dinner and laughter

friday the 24th : the birthday bash. i’m still looking for a nice place to chill and dance. any ideas? it’s my chilean girl’s last birthday before she decides to return to brazil. :(

———————————————————————–

i met two friends from my past today and both were signs from God telling me to lose some weight. This happened way after a colleague at work surprised us with a huge tiramisu cake at 11 am in school. Imagine, it was 11 am and i just couldn’t resist a slice of heaven.

at least i know i’m not the only one. :)

ps: haven’t updated much cos i haven’t had to deal with anything worth ranting about so far. I’m still working the same jobs, still having the same friends and still in love with the same man. so that’s it. Good for me.

the wedding. and blossoming after.

July 15th, 2007 by disko-ball

that was a wierd title for my blog.

went to azrina’s wedding todayyyy. was a wedding anniversary more like it. Had to stand beside the groom as he marched in. was nervous as hell. she looked gorgeous though. Extremely pretty. Her gown was just….splendid? Let’s just say, you can’t really tell that she’s already got a son.

Aydin was soooooo cute. And confused. He got the shock of his life when they started the kompang. And the silat. Ahaaaa.

I was there with Sonia who helped take the photographs. We had fun. She was mistaken for some Australian. The dj played Rina’s songs as she ate. We found that a bit funny. Her poor husband was politely eating and nodding his head here and there. I wonder if he knows what’s really going on. :P

But anyway, after the wedding i went to town to catch a movie. The blossoming of maximo olivieros. It was a great movie. Interesting cos its the first time i’ve watched a Filipino movie ( all the soap operas aside). It’s a great simple movie that talks about  values, family, friendship, love..and how it just extends beyond everything else….background etc.  I think the lead is sooo sweet and endearing. He’s got a very lovely face. :)

anyway check it out here:

30thJune-1st July

i’ll remember this date - June 3oth and July 1st.

there’s nothing much to say these days…

June 26th, 2007 by disko-ball

i’m beginning to feel bored of how i’m doing things. It’s been wake up, shower, get dressed, go to work, work, get my ass home, shower, read a bit, talk to the boyfriend then sleep.

the monotony is getting to me.

the only ‘different’ thing for me right now ( that is so out of the routine) would be the fact that my work hours aren’t 9 to 5, and that i look forward to class on the first two days of the week. And now that i talk about school, i’m reminded of the essays that i have to complete, the file that i need to compile and the concepts that i still have yet to grasp.

up next - child psychology.

the next few weeks shall see me pouring into books with that topic. Its interesting, but its such a whole lot of glob to take in. Thankfully, i can run to my other half for help. Guess that’s the great thing about going out with someone who knows how the human mind works. But then again, my brain is not much of a sponge lately, and i don’t know why. Maybe i;ve been blasting the music too loudly in my bedroom. I’ve been drowning myself in the music of Morissey ( all these started with Zak’s compilation). And then there’s this chillout album i borrowed from a friend that seems freakish. When i turn the first track up at 3 am, it feels like i’m floating in the dark and there are all thse colours around me. Sort of like the aurora lights.

man, something tells me i should stop here. :)

Anyway, its my off day today and i have decided to spend it at home. Doing my homework and also ’spending time’ with my parents. They just got back home from malaysia yesterday and my mother has turned on her ‘cooking for the kids’ mode. She made curried prawns today. :) yummy.

lemme digress a bit - Adrian left for Bangkok today and i’m jealous. I am counting down to the days of my Vacation, and even though its not far away, its a much needed break!

Oh, and congrats to my friends ( you know who you are) who have decided to take the next step into their relationship… :)

hungry hungry hippo,

waiting.

June 19th, 2007 by disko-ball

i’m bored. i just got back home from the ’staff party’ thingy at TCD and it was quite fun. Things get far better when the boss is not around and there’s a few more bottles of wine to waste. :)

anyway

the party

i had to be at work from 11 and the whole day i was on my  feet. It felt okay, cos it was quiet but to an extent that i was bored out of my mind. I almost started counting my eyelashes. then 6 pm came and everyone trickled in. it was nice, seeing familiar faces from the office, seeing friends from work. I don’t miss them - the office folks, as much as i thought they would but its always nice to be surrounded by familiar faces once in a while. And then speak to them in angry tones over the phone for the rest of the month. heh. just kidding. i love tcd.

did a bit of wine tasting and ate some finger foods. The canapes were great and i think i had my fingers stuck in the salmon quiches for a while. Then i ventured into the world of roast beef and wasabi, and of course the delectable roast chicken and cheese canapes. mmm. Now i know why lotsa pple go for TCD catering. It’s great food, looks awesome, and its just simply exciting. All those colours in one plate. I felt like trying everything!

anyway it was an overall good thing. i had fun and great company and that’s what keeps me going.

————

other than that, i miss my boyfriend and talking to him. I know he’s busy so i guess i’ll go to sleep now and fix the playlists tomorrow.

mid year

June 4th, 2007 by disko-ball

it’s almost two months since my last entry.

yes its been that long. i am amazed, partly cos this would mean that i have been studying and ace-ing my studies for 6 months, AND i have been juggling a full time job for 6 months.  It’s quite a feat cos if u know me, i’m someone who cannot really stick to one thing.

( ha, maybe thats why i’m sticking to two things at a time…)

anyway, just updates…

1) i found out something very interesting from my sister today. something about me. it’s such a bad piece of news that it’s funny.

2) I’ve been helping out at LHMS for a week now and i think the experience has been beneficial. I love the kids to death ( they finally said my name correctly - miss sabrina and not miss sa-wi-wah. Thus i am no longer known as a piece of vegetable hahahaaaa.) :)

3) I am still with my gorgeous and handsome bf. :P

4) i spent my bday at work. keidi and Sonia bought me a cake and sang a song into my face in front of all my customers. How extremely sweet.

5) i found another primary schmate on friendster!!!! YUSOFFFFFFFF. Hope we can catch up soon. It’s been wayyy to long. 12 years.

—————————————————————————–

alrightey. i don’t know if there is anything else to write. good night.

mia-ing

April 15th, 2007 by disko-ball

i should call it missing instead. i have been away from the internet for a while. No time to turn the pc on…for entertainment purposes. have been busy doing assignment, going to work and coming home at midnight, talking to boyfriend, catching up with more reading etc etc.

no time to even meet my friends. sianz.

highlights…

malaysia

spent last last weekend there. had a grand wedding to attend to. not mine. some of my friends thought it was. Hah. sorry to disappoint. It was a family affair. i had to meet members of my family that i hadn’t seen for ages. I realise, my cousins have all grown up, and no one recognised me.

is that a good thing honestly? maybe yes and maybe no. They are after all my only relatives and the blood ties could be the most important reason for me to keep relations going. But then again, its quite a pain in the ass tring to relate to people you see rarely. Conversations rarely go beyond, " how are you?" and " what are you doing now?". Or maybe its just me. Yeah. Maybe.

school

has neem interesting. monica is taking us for this new module and it has been rather tough. But i’m coping, taking it one step at a time. The results for my previous module came out pretty alright. Hopefully i don’t screw the essay or filing . Need to be consistent and try my best. :) all in all, i’m enjoying school. Its away from the everyday activities, and i get to see new faces. :)

work

there’s nothing much to say about work, except that we have new people on the team and its becoming slightly challenging. good luck to all of us.

the boyfriend

is still by far one of the best things that has ever happened to me. can’t wait to see him in a week’s time!

————————————————————————-

i’m bracing myself for this week. I’m going to be very tired and lethargic and grumpy. It’s going to be busy as helllll. And quite guilty to have not met up with sonia for ages. :(

gtg now. bed beckons.

time flies.

April 1st, 2007 by disko-ball

its already april 4th. time flies so quickly, i’m already into the third module in school. Two exams almost done, 7 more units to go. :)

yesterday

was a blast. i have never in my life seen a strongman challenge so yesterday was the perfect time to catch it all. Initially, i was a bit lonely, cos i went alone, but what the hell, i ended up having more fun than anything. Thankfully, Syam was there, so we sat together and cheered for the big boy. Miss Walker was there too, doing rovings. She finally met my bf, haha. All three of us girls, just sitting together, bitching about things and off course, cheering the guys on.

then syam left, and mark came down after so i pretty much had some company. Suzanne left too, and after the whole competition was done, i found danlin, nina and leeron! And fiq’s aunties. And his students. Took pictures etc etc. I was surprised. didn’t think that he would have gotten third place, but he did. danlin thought it was great!!! :)

later

me and fiq got into a cab. went back to his place and gorged on laksa. :) we were planning to el-shiekh but he had to teach on sunday morning, i had to work at 9 am and we were just very tired. must be all the excitement earlier in the day. but must go el-sheikh sometime soon. keidi? sonia? juan? anyone?

today

was late for work. so much for promising shahi hat i’ll be in at 9. i reached half an hour later.

work was alright. busy as hell but ok. and i found fiq’s picture in the papers looking all scary! :) hehehehe. wish they had taken one with his students.

tomorrow

work at 11. then run off to class at 6. i’m quite excited. we’re doing the third and mosty difficult module, and i’ll be away for most weekends this month. what a challenge. :) oh did i mention that my pracical section of the exam was last week? phew. :)

alrightey, nothing else to update.

will run off now, sabby!
