Good News Bad News

Ello...hehehe...i know wat u r thinking, "Wah...this girl a...holidays for so long never update blog oso...ish ish...but exam time darn semangat pulak!" YA....it's a mystery i myself cant solve. I realize i didnt update my blog since i went elaine & teoh's house to help out wit the door gifts for their wedding...and now...i'm a few more days away from going back to my campus...(T_T) sob sob...and teoh and elaine has al'd been married! Ahhhhh...like wat i told my fren when she asked how was my holidays..."Kinda like money...never enuf."

Okok, back to main topic. Good news and bad news...i'm sure a lot of u hav come across this...there's always a good thing and bad thing. And we always need to choose whether to hear the good or the bad one first. I'm a "sien fu hau tim" kinda person (translation: first bitter then sweet) so normally i would choose the bad news first but life, as we all know is full of twist and turns...and God decided to give me the reverse today.

THE GOOD NEWS

Well, today i was invited by a 'certain' guy to hav dinner. (okok...u ALL know who tat is) I havent been giving him enuf compliments for all the things he has done for me...therefore this blog is dedicated to him. I have been too shy to write about him in my blogs but tonite, i feel like showing him off...hahaha! (If u r reading this, dun feel TOO proud ok? but i do hope u enjoy this...my lil gesture of thanks)

He asked my out yesterday...and if u think i was thrill and giggling like a school girl...u r so wrong. I didnt think of it as anything special as we go out for dinner all the time after work...so it was normal. He was working till bout 5pm...and i was lazing as home. I didnt even think to dress up...until he sms me to ask me to. So, ok, i tot: "I'm going back to my (no life) uni life soon and i wont be seeing him much...and i knew he wanted to celebrate my last semester results..." (all As...yea!) therefore i promise i will look good for the dinner later...that's when i fell asleep...it was bout 3pm and wanted to wake up at bout 4.30pm to hav a QUICK dress up b4 driving to pyramid.

Ti...ti...ti...TI!! My alarm rang and sadly i'm a fan of the snooze button. And the second time i was conscious it was al'd near 5pm! I sprang out from bed, had a quick bath and chose my dress...but every girl knows tat is the hardest part...luckily u sms and said u will by working half an hour later. The dress i had in thought doesnt look the same the last time i put it on...let's jus say i'm feeling like spongebob while i wanna look like a bit more like squidward. i was late and feeling terrible...so, i read the bible. Strangely it was on the passage of not being worried bout things...and the last words were "dun be anxious bout anything, but pray for everything." So i dropped all worries, quickly gather myself and walk out the door, confidently."


To cut the story short, we met up at TGIF's. Where i tot is the place tat he wanted to bring me...but it wasnt. Together, we chose to go Itallianics. And i'm 100% sure we didnt make the wrong choice. We were one of the first ones there....and was led to a window seat over looking the city lights. It was our first time there and didnt know tat the portions are HUGE! Luckily the waiter advice us from getting two main course. And it turned out great! The service was fantastic...(except for the guy who asked whether we want to refill our drink...and forgot to bring back the can). Anyways, for appetizer we ordered Calamari Caesar Salad...delicious treat! Main course to be Seafood Cillioni (Mussels, Clams, Squid, BIG prawns with green pepper, tomato sauce on fetuccine)...my mouth is watering now. Drinks we decided to spice things up wit a cup of house wine (and coke light to water us from chatting). And finally, dessert Cappucino Pie...(vanilla and chocolate ice cream, powdered with a crust of coffee power and crushed oreo cookie base with a hint of dark and white chocolate sauce.)...heavenly! Well, all in all, we had a great time, he was always the gentleman he was...eating all the things i dun and let me force him to eat things he dun like...(like vege and olives), letting me sit where i can get the best view, switching places with me when it was cold on my side, offered to dish me the food and immediately ordered warm water for me when i started to cough...not to mention giving me a few very nice compliments about my dressing...(suddenly Spongebob become beyond Squidward...!) We took pics...and i'm here to share it with u. To Eve, she HIGHLY recommend Itallianics. Oh ya, he met one of his frens from college doing practical there. Thank you very much for dinner...u r all and more than i could i ask for. *hugs*

THE BAD NEWS

I was happy and was kinda floatin in cloud 9...but it all ended when i reach home and back to my room. As usual, i would call out to Pooka! Hehehe...and i know she was in her pouch which was in her cage and i can see her peeking out to look at me. She was sleeping and i missed her so much i carried her out...to check her ears oso. And there it was, my 'bad news'. Her ears had a slight peeling of skin for the pass few days and i hav been treatin it wit care...applying baby oil and antiseptic...but today, i saw tat the tip came off from her ears..meaning tat she has chipped ears. And it looks like the whole dry part is coming out soon. She was loosing a small portion of her ears. My heart sank and all the warm feeling left me. But except tat, she was her normal self...all healthy. I checked fur, gliding membrane, eyes, wet nose, all four gripping claws and even he teeth and gums. ONLY the ears...naturally, i start to blame myself...maybe i wasnt feeding her right...or it was that day i bath her and didnt wash out the shampoo enuf...maybe she was lonely and depressed...i didnt spend enuf time with her...or maybe her pouch and cage is not clean enuf...or she was bitten by the ants...i was going bonkers.

And was desperate. I consulted help from two of my glider expert frens...but they didnt reply me. So sad. And i cant find anythin on9...i felt so helpless, i called him. The moment he said hello, he knew something was wrong and my tears rolled. Luckily i had him for comfort. We prayed and we decided to bring her to Pet Shack tomolo during his lunch hour...hopefully things will turn out rite....suddenly the words from the bible came and i knew now wat those words meant. Not only is it for my dress...but it was for my Pooka...for those of u who share my concern for Pooka, there is two things u can help me do, 1st kindly inform me any info u got on this subject or 2ndly help pray for her. Thank u...btw, she is now curled up in my sweater sleeping after exploring it. My adored baby...SIGH!!
