- How it all started -


I entered Victoria Institution, as a form 6 student. On the first day of school, we were divided into classes of FM 1 and FM 2. I was allocated in FM 2, and so did most of BBGS girls. We were contented with the arrangement, but not someone. He was from BBSP school, which I had never heard of. All other BBSP students were allocated in FM 1, with him as an alien in our class. I believe he was really angry with the arrangement. The class teacher promised him to swap, provided he top our FM2. Most of the time he won't be spending time in our class and preferred loitering around in the other class. We didn't really care much bout him and so did he. We didn't interact much, but in the class he was a gem to the teachers. Our chemistry teacher liked him so much that she told me, "that boy sitting at the edge of the class (referring to him) is a very good and clever boy ya?"I smirked :\ After many weeks, finally we had group work and I was in the same group as him. He loudly asked, "who is this Mika Hakkinen?" (my chinese name is Mei Kar) and I answered, "me.." From his first nicknaming on me, I got to know him. Wilson Lai :)

I guess he did not like me at all, since I was the one topping FM2 that semester with a few points ahead him. He couldn't swap class because of me! Well, of cause, I never like him too! He was always half awake/dreaming in the class. Always giving no damn to everything in FM2. Urgh, and I had to do an important Chemistry project with him, I cursed the teacher for this arrangement. I done my part, and I am not sure how much he did. A day before submission, I called him. His phone is N/A! I kept calling for endless times, and "Shit!" I told myself. I got myself ready to face the music the next day. But to my amazement, he came with a project booklet in his hand, colour printed with nice binding! And said, "Is this OK?" Hmph! He seems perfectly ignorant but in fact he is thoughtful. Oh, and his phone was N/A cause he changed the number.

So from that day onwards, my impression on him changed, somehow...

Our friendship grew then, as if there were endless stories to tell each other. *psst... we're still like this now* We discussed and debated everything under the sun, chat on the phone for hours! He helped me a lot on Maths and Physics, while I did better in Chemistry and PA. Finally in the next semester, he topped the class, with few marks ahead me. And I happily said, "Hey bro, you CAN change your class now!" But, he didn't, which kept me wondered, why..?
  • Why he seemed mad when I called him, bro..?
  • Why he seemed mad when I said I had Anorexia?
  • Why he seemed mad when I had to walk back to school with another guy friend?
  • Why his friend told me to "take note" of him?
  • But... why he kept messing up with my stuff? Hid my tumbler, grafiti-ed my table, miss-called my hp during exams! *argh! he drove me crazy!*
And then one day, a special day, my birthday, he handed a parcel to me, after our tuition classes and said, "Happy Birthday". We did not mention, but I felt the sparkles and so did him, I believe. The next day, while we were alone in the class during break time, he suddenly grabbed my hand but he didn't speak! I was struck and didn't know how to react! So we just kept quiet until someone stormed into the class and I shrugged off his hand. Oh well, suppose this was how we started off our 8 years relationship. He did not officially asked me to be his girlfriend, but the shines in his eyes confirmed his sincerity. I told myself, "Yes, he is the one" And we made my birthday, 26th of July as our courtship anniversary :)

W.O.T.P SPA Signing

*Taking a break from writing bout the wedding, since we have not received the photos yet* We have secured the purchase of W.O.T.P few months ago and we were too busy to settle for the Sales and Purchase Agreement signing. Finally on the 22nd of Jan, we made appointment with the lawyer to have the signing exercise at Wilson's office. Why 22nd of Jan? We did consult wofs.com's almanac to select the auspicious day for contract signing, and thus, 22nd of Jan. We were greeted with 2 big stacks of SPA papers and the lawyer slowly explain to us what were we signing on each documents. The lawyer is a little blur in her explanation but nevertheless she did tell us what's essential. Well..well.. even though it's not our first time signing SPA, but it's still necessary to know what we're signing. Since the legal fees are all bear by the developer, that includes the loan agreement legal fees as well, so we simply signed both the agreements together with the devel...

Pregnancy Updates: Half way there!

I'm 20 weeks pregnant now! It's a halfway milestone and it has been really smooth *touch wood* so far since the beginning of 2nd trimester. The vomiting and nausea seems to be gone overnight as I moved into Week 14. The very day my iPhone app congratulate me on my milestone, I felt a gush of energy rushing back to my body. And, for the first time in 3 months I felt... hungry! It was such a great feeling, I got ready to work and before heading out, I put up joss sticks to thank god for this miracle. And I kept my fingers, toes and everything crossed this feeling last. I bet my baby is a very punctual baby, just like the daddy. So with the deadly morning sickness gone, I am feeling myself again and started to enjoy the pregnancy much. My rhintis seems to get better after hubby installed the air purifier in our room and I get good sleeps every night with clear nostrils. My bump is showing and everyone is quite surprised to see a bump at just beginning of 3rd month. I research...

Bali Trip Day 2

We woke up the next morning, feeling all fresh with the gentle cooling breeze and chirping of the birds outside the chalet. As we opened the door, we were thrilled by the tropical Bali feelings round the chalet area. These scenes were so familiar, in the movies, magazines, novels, commercials, cafes, clubs etc.. the "Bali" style; now we're experiencing it in person. - Abangan Bungalow - - Our chalet a.k.a villa - - The walkway in the hotel - - Other types of villa - We ordered our breakfast, scrambled eggs, toasts, fruits and coffee. It was a real relaxation having breakfast at the chalet balcony, looking at the greens. I love this feelings, away from hassle, away from workloads, away from problems. Ah, so divine. :) - Relaxing on the couch, outside the villa, after breakfast - After breakfast we took a stroll down at the Ubud streets. First I saw the signature Bali gate, I was thrilled! "Take photo! Take photo!" I shouted.. So, I posed and took photo. Then, I p...
