i miss you babe, and i don't wanna miss a thing...

-pats belly- satiated grin.ooh a nice, chilled mug of ovaltine and peanut butter and jam (gosh these two go sooo well together!!) sandwich's really my fave supper nowadays!hee so fattening right? well, life's about enjoyment and living it to the fullest.. so there! (hah am i deceiving myself?wad with the excessive justification heh)

ahhh thanks xiaohng,for the brilliant time=D really enjoyed myself with fiona today... she's such a sweet thing, really.so wonderfully sincere and down-to-earth. and yet quite a deep one,too. (heehee judging from the countless stories conjured from her sick lil' twisted mind;>)then we spent such a looooong time at zara!!! hee and emerged empty-handed.well, that's money saved eh! urgh speaking of which, my spending's rocketed recently.. i just buy and buy, never really bothering to check my account. can you imagine my horror when my mom passed me my oub letter;i was mortified at the status of my savings - i actually wiped out thousands in a matter of months gosh=S

ooooh yes on a much lighter note,i went for my second driving lesson today!!whee!XD (ugh there were several complications prior to my decision to continue with this company, security/finance issues and what-not,but everything's settled now.thank goodness) yup anyway,my instructor was asking if i was confident enough to hit the main road today! instead of continuing the pathetic rounds i was making in the carpark at eunos.heh despite LOTS OF insecurities, i told him i was ready!! didn't want to waste anymore time..and boy, was the adrenaline rush amazing!!!!!seriously, it rocked....... the accelerating part especially.i couldn't stand keeping the accelerator needle (i think) constant at 1.5, as i'd been instructed to.. for safety reasons,i reckon.if only i had a long, undisturbed stretch of road to travel on at top speed=D gonna be exciting.

yay i'm on a sugar high or smth for the whole of today.not really experiencing any of that gloom and doom haha. there're things nagging at me in the back of my mind... things that constantly trouble and disturb me. but i can't exactly pinpoint or solve any of these little problems,anyway. so no point fretting over it, i guess.right, gonna hit the sack.

"Heya." A painfully familiar voice rang in her ears.
She spun around. He stood there, outside the gates, hands tucked deep in his trouser pockets. He looked at her, and she gazed into his eyes, almost lovingly. She felt her bones start to melt under his stare, and her knees beginning to buckle. He looked somewhat troubled. Then he began fidgeting, and dropped his gaze to the dull earth.
"Hey." She said, and began walking towards him, the child standing behind her, looking on intently.
She stopped in front of him. Then dropped her gaze, too. She fixed her eyes on his brown shoes. She loved brown. And knew that he did, too. She felt him looking at her again.
"I'm sorry,babe. Sorry." His voice pierced to the core of her heart, and she thought she could hear it shatter.
A single tear released itself, and rolled slowly down her flushed cheek.
"It's ok, I understand. I'll miss you." She wiped the tear roughly away with the back of her hand, and turned so her back faced him.

He observed that her shoulders were sagging. The cotton dress flowed gently in the soft breeze and clung on to whatever support her crumbling frame could provide. Her raven, shoulder-length hair looked limp. And she looked weary. He gave a low sigh. There was nothing he could do to make her feel better, evidently. So he'd better not do anymore, lest he hurt her deeper. He noticed how her hands fell limply by her sides. She was walking now. In slow, staggered steps. She was walking away from him, into those high gates. Into the garden beyond.
"Sorry." He mumbled softly under his breath, for the last time, before turning and walking away from those gates, and from her. Forever.
