Escape...

When u are going through this roller-coaster period in life, its very hard to be patient. U keep wanting to give up but u'll tell yrself to be patient. N when you tell yourself to be patient, you ask yrself if its worth being patient and why.

...Sometimes i really wish I had an answer for everything but the truth is I don't. So what else can I do, besides being patient and wait and see what happens...

Amidst all that is going on, a spa-getaway at Batam on Saturday was good. Victor and I went for an one-day spa retreat and it really was great. A good way to relax the mind and get things off yr head for a while.

But I've also been trying to get things off my head in the wrong ways...I have been drinking too much, spending $$ too much, doing way too many stupid things...

All in the name of an escape...

N all these has to stop...its not going to do me any good...

I need to get control of my life soon...

The Lesson-Learning Weekend…

I learnt a very important lesson on Saturday. When you are sad, alcohol is the last thing u turn to. In fact, it shouldn’t even be in the list of things to turn to, to drown your sorrows.

An important lesson that I would never forget.

My previous 2 drinking sessions were wonderful and so much fun. The one on Saturday wasn’t that wonderful although it was fun…I should never touch alcohol when I’m sad. Although I didn’t cry or make a fool out of myself, I’m still not very proud of some stuff I did. Embarassing!!

Minah took pictures and I’m waiting for her to send them to me. But I’m still contemplating whether I should upload them coz I only vaguely remember what kind of pictures were taken. I need to see the pictures before i decide whether they are uploadable!!

I am so ashamed of myself! Although Minah says that I didn’t do much, I still feel like I did a lot! Sigh…

Learnt another lesson on Sunday…A pleasant one this time…

No matter how sad you are, spend time with a child and she’ll brighten up your mood.

I went over to my aunt’s place and it felt so good looking at my niece’s smile! She had such a welcoming and comforting smile.

I called Victor over to AMK so that he could spend some time with lovely Initha. We bought her to the Mcd there. She wasn’t very friendly with Victor at first but then she slowly got cosy with him. It was really really very cute seeing Victor being with a small kid. Now I know why some women say that its attractive seeing a grown-up man fussing over a small kid. It totally is! ;)
I made him carry her water-bottle for a while. He looked pretty cute and comical! Hehe!

The 'trying-to-get-her-attention-with-his-watch' trick...

The beginning of Initha 'layaning' Victor... I just love this shot!!
I went "Awwww!" when they were doing this.
Lovely, isn't she! I can't wait for the next baby girl due in June!!!

When U're Gone....

The past 2 weeks have been a big roller-coaster ride for me. So many things have happened....sooo many things.....but in the midst of everything I have learnt that patience is the key to everything and time will provide an answer to everything. So i've told myself to be patient.

My granny passed away last weekend. My dad's mum....the only grandparent I had…..She was a cute old lady…I was very close with her when I was young but after stuff happened, I kinda lessened my trips to Melaka to see her.

In fact, the last time I saw her was 4 years back. I spoke to her last Christmas and she didn’t really sound happy with me. Well, I don’t really blame. I was her favourite grandchild and I wasn’t visiting her.

The only things I tell myself to console myself is that she died at an old ripe age – 73. She was a strong, healthy and independent lady. She didn’t suffer much either when she was dying.

I missed her, I’m missing her n I’ll miss her......very much…

Well, tat aside. Our close buddy Kavitha got married. Finally after 2.5 years, she and Sara tied the knot and had their celebrations at their hometowns in Malaysia. They had a small wedding celebration in here at Chandhini’s on last Friday.

We had our fill of good food there and then did our usual partying after that at Chakrvarthy. It had been a long time since we all got together and we were sooo happy that we managed to do it that day! I wonder when we are ever going to go out like this again!

We took a lot of pictures, at the restaurant and at the club! Minah n I should never hold a camera. We get out of control with a camera around!!
It started off while we were having dinner and talking. I have no idea why Siva started feeding us the dessert. Maybe he suddenly felt like Mother Theresa...
After dinner, before we headed off to Chakravarthy, we had the normal photo-taking for the album! But as always, me, Minah and Rathika had to thick-skinnly take pics of ourselves, for us to admire!
We took alot of pictures at Chakravarthy! And each and everyone of it is very nice for me to not upload it!!

The start of the photo-taking...I look damn-shit tired in everything!
I love this shot!! I can't stop admiring it! The real fun started when Siva and Victor got high! They became extra-loving, extra-sporty and extra-on to taking photos!

Siva loves Rathika! Rathika loves Siva!
We are going thru a rough patch and yet he can pose for such a loving shot...Why? The alcohol....*shakes head*
These are classic shots!
We don't have a pic of Kavi and Sara together. They didn't want to. Guess there were sick of taking pictures together for the past few weeks!
We had alot of fun on that day. Missing it alot!
I kinda feel guilty that I was having soo much fun without realising that my granny was going to leave me....funny rite..... :)
Its Friday. Good weekend to all. Hopefully this weekend turns out fine for me.
Gotto get back to work now.....
