Revolving stars

Seems like my life has taken an exciting turn recently. My FMIL is insisting that I am not part of the family yet because we are not doing the traditional tea ceremony. PL is quite pissed because he thinks that signing that document means that we are officially together for life. For me, I seriously don't care. What's all the big hoohaa about this traditional tea ceremony? Only crazy old folks believe in this kind of things. I don't really need her to recognise me as her DIL because I'm not looking at her money or whatever shit, even if she really have the moolah. We have been selecting the songs. I was a little sian because I hate this kind of events yet I am being forced to do them. I think I would do better if I can hide behind somewhere and be in my own little world, but no, I have to be forced out to do entertaining. Sibei sian. Okays, it's time to sleep and try to go for the CXWORX in the morning.

PL and I took half day leave to go down to ROM for the collection of the ROM stuff. Things to note: The parking uncle is very hardworking. We kena summon due to not putting parking coupon. The appointment is like any other government agency. We still have to take a queue number and wait for around 45 mins despite having an appointment. You have to raise your right hand to make the statutory declaration.  (PL was quite amused by it and asked the officer if there was a CCTV to record it down.) There is also a supposed 15bucks admin fee if you decide to change your JP. We managed to get it waived off as the JP was the one who cannot make it. I think if I knew we had to wait so long,  I would have brought a book along to read @@

Today was an interesting day. In the morning, PL got an SMS from Peter Kong, the JP that we looked for like close to 4 months ago, and he asked if we can push back our ROM timing to 6.30pm as he thinks that he may be late due to a medical appointment at Changi General Hospital. We panicked as we had already informed everyone that we will do the solemnisation at 6pm and all the food and everything has been arranged. In the end, we called up Ivan Ng from Clementi CC who was willing to perform the solemnisation for us at 6pm. One of the reason I didn't want to choose him at first was because it will lead to the whole Clementi area knowing that our big day is on Friday (but we have no choice now) PL was quite pissed as we have booked with Peter Kong quite a while ago and only now did he tell us that he has a medical appointment on the same day around the same timing. At first, when we wanted to meet up with him for a briefing for the actual day, he said that he can't make i...

I went for my first Sh'bam class yesterday. I thought I saw Joseph but I might be mistaken. But anyway, back to Sh'bam.. I have no idea what it was all about actually. Basically what we do in class is to follow the instructor's moves and follow. The class I attended at market street was taught by Naila and I think she is pretty chirpy and hip for an instructor. Even though I can't catch all of the moves, I will go back for next week's class. For those who wanna know how shiong the lesson is, I give it 2/5. I don't think it burns more calories than running on the treadmill. Or yoga.

I'm officially one month into the birth control pills. One thing I love about this, it regulates my menses. Damn shiok to know when exactly it will come. One not very good thing about it - it gives me the headache when I go on and off the pills. I didn't feel it when I took it to delay my menses, but I felt it when I took it for a longer period of time. The afternoon period is always the time when I feel the headache the most, but it stopped after around a week. It's probably still getting used to the extra hormones that is being injected in, but so far, I'm quite happy with it. For now, I think I will just stick to this method until there is a better one (which does not require me to eat the pill at around the same time) >.< I have a tendency to forget about it. So far I have not registered any weight gain yet, and since I have been going to the gym quite frequently recently, my weight has been going down instead.

The first thing that came to my mind was: The movie is super long. In Singapore, it is classified as a R21 film, making it my first R-rated movie watched in the cinema. Truth to be told, I didn't think that I would have enjoyed it this much as 3 hours sounded a tad long to me. But I managed to watch it all without falling asleep, which is considered very good. The film depicts the life of Jordan Belfort, who rose to fame and fortune by being a very good stockbroker who eventually opened his own firm and used devious ways to make people invest their money so that they can earn from their investments, together with some insider trading blah blah blah. There were quite a few banking jargons but most of it were drugs related. The film has a typical ending, where the bad guy goes to jail and gets reformed after all the bad things that he has done. What I am impressed by is the way they tried to glamorize the sex and drug scenes initially. People are drawn to the high living life...

Thank you PL for organising such a wonderful night, and I really enjoyed myself. According to him, it was his first time giving a bouquet of flower bear or what you call it to a girl (I seriously have no idea what he gave his ex, and anyway, her loss is my profit [and happiness?]) and I'm not going to grumble about him spending money on it because it's probably going to be one in a lifetime kinda thing. He said he got it for me because I have not celebrated Valentine's Day before~ :D So our plan was like this: Eat dinner at Tiong Bahru's Eighteen Chefs Watch Wolf of Wall Street at Vivocity at 8.40pm. I guess it's a very typical V-day celebration but I am very touched. ^^ He just reminded me of this song~
