1. Aileen had a beautiful wedding and I was part of it, made a thank you speech, and was mentioned in a thank you speech
2. I lost - BUT FOUND! - a misplaced paper bag containing, among other things, my mother's pearls, my lucky fairy necklace from Australia, and a bra. What a lovely testament to the potential *niceness* of people and the tangibility of small and everyday. Props to the people at 4Leaves at the basement of Bugis. Thanks for making shopping centres safe places for silly shoppers who leave things around. (cough cough aileen)
3. I re-watched my all-time favourite movie Edward Scissorhands in good company and fell in love its dark, fairytale romance all over again. Movies like this make life worth living.
3. The discovery of wonderful friends in the course of an unpleasant crisis, so to speak. I don't want to dwell on its details, but thank you all you people who will be mentioned in the next few points.
4. Aileen and Vic for sitting in the loo with me for all the time it took for me to weep my eyes out and talking to me with admirable patience and reason and for providing me with much needed tissue. I love you girls, NUS and PGP wouldn't be the same without you guys wiht me on the 5th floor.
5. Sze Han and Dominic for being solidly calm and reliable and keeping the entire situation from erupting into an explosive frenzy and especially to Dominic for driving us down and for "xiao jie how are you-ing" every 5 seconds and for basically. well. everything.
6. Russell for appearing and not conplaining even though I killed his night out with BabyVic and for talking to me at Subway and hiding the twenty bucks even though i REALLY wanted to buy you guys dinner and for the nice messages at the end. Yes I know you're blunt but so am I so I think we more or less understand each other.
7. To other people who didnt know everything but who were nice - Cuppycake Junwen Phil Delon Ken Eugene Pam oh my gosh guys you have no idea how much i love you all.
8. I realize I'm starting to thank people. Im supposed to be making a list of things that happened that made me happy. Oh well. I guess Im happy that I have so many people to thank. I'm a lucky girl cos I know so many nice people :)
9. I went on a damn cool speedboat ride from the merlion that's taking a shower because someone wanted to cheer me up! It's like hopw damn effective. I swear I spent the whole day giggling.
10. Victoria is having fun at CFA7! I'm just happy that she's happy cos I'm happy at Cheers and I want to spread the joy.
Bad things that have Happened in the Same Period of Time
There are many but I refuse to dwell on them. I've learned that being around peole who want you to be happy makes you want to convince them that you ARE, in fact happy, and when you start trying to act happy you can't help but BE happy after a while.
And this suits me well and good because...well...life's too short, once again, and I just want to float from moment to beautiful moment.
So there.
