I want to be your friend. I'm sorry for all those missed opportunities. I wish I could turn back time.
What if I told you you're very special to me? You make me laugh. I like your voice. You're smart and you have so much ahead of you. You've left footprints in my life. Would it have made a difference?
We can stay up late and talk till the wee hours of the morning. You can tell me about your past. I can tell you mine. You can tell me your dreams and fears, your secrets will always be safe with me. We'll make a great team. You and I, against the world.
I want to be your friend.
I hope it's not too late.
I think it is.

Up is a stratospheric success
I'm sitting here, staring at the screen, eating my favourite egg tart from Tong Kee Brothers, and I'm typing with 1 hand... lol. Question: Why are some girls so clingy? This is taking forever. Maybe I should finish my egg tart first.
Ok done!
Right where was I? Oh yea, I know LDRs can be painful, but you moping around the house does not make it any better. Sorry if I'm being harsh, but if I'm a guy I don't think I want a girlfriend that's emotionally unstable. Sometimes you need friends, or a 3rd party to wake you up. If you're only happy when he's around & depressed when he's not, something's really wrong. There's a fine line between missing someone and being obsessed with that certain someone, and sometimes we don't even know if we've crossed that line. Ok that was some random ranting. Hehe... On to more important stuff :)
I watched Up yesterday! It's really good. I want to watch it again! I cried so much and laughed so hard. If someone ever tells you that an animated film can't be considered a real movie, just show them Up. It's about a cranky widower, a chubby boy, and their amazing journey. It's a tale about grief and regret, purposes lost and rediscovered. The lessons of Up really lift us, even if they ground our heroes in what truly matters. Go see it!
After that we went home and watched another episode of Desperate Housewives and I cried again. Hehe I'm such a cry baby.

Ignite My Fire
I miss lifegroup. I miss J8. You guys have taught me so much, about love, about friendship, about life, about God, about servanthood, about leadership. Some of you are younger than me yet you are matured and well-grounded in the Word, I've learned so much from you all. You choose to make time for church, lifegroup, AND prayer meeting, I am truly blessed to have known every single one of you. I pray God will continue to use you guys to impact more lives, just as you've impacted mine. Just something to ponder on:
Sorry for the lack of updates. I've been so busy. I'm finally getting around to finishing my resume. Grandpa's getting better. He doesn't need to go for an angiogram. Thank God. At his age, he moves slower, gets things done slower, and gets tired easily. Whenever needed I have to fetch him to the hospital. He's been pretty nostalgic too. He tells me stories of his younger days, and I listen, for maybe the seventh time. Just today when we were having lunch, I realised he used to finish his food before I do, but now I finish my food first. It's getting harder for him to chew 'tough' meat. When I was younger, he used to drive me around in the Wira. Now it's my turn to drive him around. He used to take care of me, now it's my turn to take up that role, and care for him. God help me, I can't possibly go through this alone.
During this time Chin Tuck has been the most supportive and loving boyfriend I could ever ask for. I tell him things I cannot tell anyone else, and I know my secret's safe with him. (Yes, we have talked about marriage. But no, we're not getting married in the near future. Stop asking.) Yesterday he handed me his credit card, even though my dad already gave me 2. I looked at him and before I could even ask or say anything, he said "Just in case. You don't even need to call me or anything before you use it". He even wanted to buy me a Coach handbag after I said I liked the design. I had to stop him from doing so. He couldn't be any sweeter :')
Today's his birthday. I suggested we go to Maredo's since he loves steak. I want to make this special after everything he's done for me.

Chilli Pan Mee for breakfast!!
There are many things that bring back memories. Certain sights, sound, or touch. Today, it's a special smell. The smell of his softener on my clothes :)
By the way, you know what I love about Malaysia? My friends. I woke up to a phone call and the voice on the other line said "Are you quarantining yourself? Wanna go for chilli pan mee??"

Emotion MIX
My parents will be here in less than 4 hours! Omg finally... I miss them so much...
Anyway I'm back from Sydney & Port Macquarie (Laurieton)! But that's another post altogether. My graduation's on Wednesday, & the Hydes & Gottkes will be coming up to Brisbane too! So many things to blog about, so little time!
Wait what the heck am I doing online? I'm supposed to be sleeping! Ok time to hit the sack. Good night!

Crystal the Nomad
My room's almost empty now. Most of my stuff are in KT's place. What's left are the stuff that I'll be taking to Sydney. I'm gonna miss Unit 10 194 Carmody Rd. So many memories. But I miss Malaysia too. I feel so torn. Sigh...
On a lighter note, we had lots of fun in Melbourne, but that's another story. Tomorrow we'll be off to Sydney (& I can't wait to see Joy, Cass & hopefully I'll get to see Tina & her baby!). Then on Thursday I'll be flying to Port Macquarie to stay with the Gottkes in a small town called Laurieton (really looking forward to that!), then I'm coming back to Brisbane, bunking at Kt's place (hopefully there's still place for me), then will be staying with my parents at the hotel when they arrive for my GRADUATION!! Woot!!!
So yea, I'm gonna be a nomad for the next 2 weeks or so. Before I finally return to my beautiful country :)

It would've been more fun if I didn't come back with wounds and bruises :/

Last paper @ 1430. Mission accomplished
I'm no longer a student. It feels................ nostalgic.
Part of me wants to be a student forever. Part of me just can't wait to start work and earn some money.
It feels nice to... well, have nothing to do. It's been awhile since I felt this free.
No wait, there IS things to do. There's so many series to catch up on, I have to do some research about Melbourne, book a car for my parents when they're here... Yup, busy busy HOLIDAYS!
It's only going to get better :D
