When circumstances got us separated

On Monday, 19th Oct, I left for KL alone. The Wan was by the road side, looking in the bus which I had taken a seat. It was hard, but we had made the decision to live separately as we have respective work commitments.

The Wan has gotten a really good offer back in SG to head a project for 3 months. Since I’ve already taken on the job here in KL/PJ, we couldn’t help being separated by the causeway can we?

The days and nights passed while we were getting used to not having each other around. Then, my parents made the decision to drive up to KL on Friday with the Wan in tow. So we lovebirds are reunited for the weekend. Only weekend.

We were getting used to not have each other around and now we’re re-adjusting all over again.

I’m disoriented, really. For now, I’m just counting down to the days I’ll return back to SG to see him…

When September was extraordinary

Although Syawal (Hari Raya) wasn’t really celebrated cos I was sick and ermm running between two countries, September ended with a huge bang.

The “once in a lifetime” opportunity when the Wan won himself 2 pairs of tickets to the F1Rocks’s night with NERD & No Doubt. I decided to give one of the free tickets to Dila as her birthday was just a week after mine and Era, who was there with me for No Doubt concert in 1997. We had our fun and the girls saw the craZEE side of me at the concert. I was too excited to see No Doubt once again in my lifetime and boy did I party till I lost my voice.

Era wanted so much to see Beyonce and she gave us a huge surprise when she bought Dila & myself tickets for the next night’s F1Rocks as our birthday gifts! By then, I already had lost my voice. I could barely whisper. But Beyonce’s set was just enough to let you gawk at her. It’s not everyday you get to see the lady in flesh, gyrating to her hit numbers.

When good things come

Today, 25th Sept 09, is definitely the best day for me in September.

I had an appointment with my doctor and was I surprised when I entered her room, she exclaimed, “Congratulations!” with a huge grin. I had earlier jogged my way from where the cabby alighted me to the clinic as I was 10 minutes late. I couldn’t register what was she congratulating me for. As I sat, still in bewilderment, she continued that I had done a very good job at bringing down my prolactin level. My prolactin level is now standing at 8, comparing to 6 months ago when it was at 119! (A normal woman’s prolactin level should only be within the range of 3-30.)

Imagine my delight!

She then went on asking me of my weight and menstrual cycle. I’ve lost 5kg within the last 3 months (which is quite an achievement for people who have prolactinoma) and my cycle is almost normal now.

I couldn’t stop smiling to myself but I didn’t have the Wan with me to share the joy. He had gone to run an errand for me.

But when we met later before F1Rocks, I rambled everything to him! The doctor said, I need to put in more effort or just keep up with what I’m doing and if I’m lucky I can get pregnant soon! WIW!

The night was sealed with much celebration at the F1Rocks at Fort Canning (the night with NERD & No Doubt) with Dila, Erra and the Wan. Indeed, it had been such a lovely wonderful day. I’m going to be sleeping with a smile.. Goodnight world.

When it’s Dejavu

Back on the 15th October 1997, I went to watch No Doubt live in the Indoor Stadium (Singapore). I was given 2 pair of standing tickets as my birthday gift from 5 of my closest secondary school mates.

This time, almost 12 years later, after Gwen has 2 sons, the Wan won tickets to F1 Rocks on the night of No Doubt & N.E.R.D. I couldn’t be more elated of course. It’ll definitely be a great night.

September is definitely a good month for me.

When Ramadhan ended

I couldn’t see through the end of Ramadhan for I was given the monthly leave. And I wasn’t at all in the mood for Raya cos of the painful cramps and feeling half-energized. Not much photos were taken, not much visiting either – it was just our home when everyone of the Wan’s siblings arrived and then off to my sister’s in Yishun to see my family.

We ended up watching the Manchester derby game and well, forgotten the mandatory family shot. Perhaps we’ll just wait til my eldest sister is back from Segamat with her husband and Asfa since they’re Rayaing there this year.

So here’s just one photo of us at Yishun, me almost gone still trying to put on a smile for the Wan.

Selamat Hari Raya to my fellow Muslims and enjoy the “off-in-lieu” to the rest!

Oh and Happy 28th Birthday to the bestfriend, Dila for her birthday was the same day as 1st Syawal this year! =D
