Went to the airport this afternoon to send my mum and sis off to Taiwan... I'm not able to join them yet again because of my PA. Hope they will enjoy themselves to the fullest for the next two weeks.... Was thinking of Adrian throughout the journey to the airport... My very next trip there will be to welcome him home. Finally! 12 more days to go, he'll be back on the 9th of June evening... As the day comes nearer, i start to become more impatient... feels that time is passing so slowly...

20th May (Sat) - Oath Taking Since twin and i just turned 21 and since we were borned in Taiwan and not S'pore, we had to make a trip down to Immigration Center to take our oath... Otherwise, we'lll not be able to remain as a Singaporean... Come to think of it, will i stay in s'pore in the future? or will i immigrate? i like to ask Adrian this qns every now and then, and he'll joke that we should migrate to Nigeria - reason being, we came across somewhere that Nigeria ppl are the happiest ppl in the world... haa... Right now, the future is definitely still a big question mark...
18th May (Thurs) - Girlfriends night out
Had dinner with my gfs... Finally got to see the photos shing yee took on her trip to sydney with her bf two weeks ago...The photos were awesome. Is it always true that the grass seems greener on the other side? haa... Anyway, glad she had fun and thanks for the kangaroo keychain.
17th May (Wed) - Kevin Kern Concert
Met Adrian's mum after work and went to Esplanade to watch a piano concert. My very first time stepping into the Esplanade Concert Hall. The stage was simply yet elegantly decorated, with the focus shining on the grand piano at the center. Making the piano came into life was Kevin Kern. It was truely amazing to see how those fingers could do wonders.... The piece which I enjoyed most was the one he played in total darkness. Being a severely visually handicapped, he wanted to let the audience enter into his world. Throughout the night, I allowed his soothing music to bring images and emotions out of me.
My mummy used to say it feels like heaven to be able to appreciate some red wine on a comfortable couch while listening to someone playing piano. I would say it will feels like heaven watching a piano concert with Adrian by my side. To be able to hold his hands and lie on his shoulder.....
Nevertheless, i enjoyed Aunty's company a lot.. i have always imaging watching a purely piano performance in a concert hall.. And that night, i was rewarded with exactly what i've fantasized...

Seldom get to talk to adrian nowadays... He's really busy with his studies and his final paper will only end on the 22nd of May... sigh... Finally got to chat with him for a few minutes via skype just now. Bad news - His bag was stolen and it contains the notes he needed to study for the next paper... In fact the whole year's notes. I can't do anything for him and I feel bad.. But on a positive note, as much as he's affected, he tried to remain calm and can even joke with me...Just hope things will go smoothly for him from now on... (P.S: Huiling, when you go travelling, remember to guard your belongings at ALL times!!)

My Professional Attachment (aka PA) started today. The team that I was assigned to consist of 5 ladies (including my supervisor). They are all really capable and friendly...
Lunch time - We went to bbq Korea to eat followed by "tea + chit-chat session" at Yat Kun Toast (My supervisor's treat for both!)
I didn't do anything much on the first day because the pc was still in the midst of repairing. Hence, my whole day was spent reading about the company, and about the projects that I will be working on during my stay. Right now, my feet hurt!! Blisters everywhere... The new shoe is definitely not as comfortable as I thought would be...
