Exploring Singapore on a Saturday afternoon feels wonderful, especially when it's together with adrian...
We went to Kampong Glam.
Feels like a tourist holding map and taking pictures.. haa
It was fun..
Touring a place is more meaningful and interesting if you have someone explaining to you the history, the facts etc... and adrian is that person..
He loves those ancient shophouses, their designs, their colours etc...

With the brochures, we found out that there are four types of shophouses styles in Kampong Glam - The Early, the First Traditional, the Late and the Art Deco Style (refer to photos below).

Mr Lee is the tour guide for the day... 

Us at the Singapore's Narrowest Street - Haji Lane

Just the picture of the narrow street.. 

The 4 type of shophouses:
Firstly, the Early Style

Second type, the First Traditional Style

Next, the Late Style

Lastly, the Art Deco Style

Green building and adrian...

We had our tea break at this place called "Singapore Zam Zam".. It was rather crowded there... 

Curry, Murtabak, Cucumber with tomato and Teh Tarik...Thumbs up! 

Indulging~ 

At The Malay Heritage Centre, with some malay dancers performing behind us... 

The grand Masjid Sultan (Sultan Mosque) behind us...

It has been 2 weeks since his return...
and it's gonna be just 2 more weeks of togetherness...

I'm having mixed feeling...
On one hand, i'm very looking forward to the overseas exchange programme...
But on the other hand, i can't bear to be apart from him again...
The feeling of missing him, of not knowing when is the next time we can see each other hurts quite a bit...

We haven't been together for very long...

....and yet, you've become a very impt part of my life.

In the morning, i often wake up thinking about you...

....feeling happy and excited when i know we'll be seeing each other during the day.

I was feeling all anxious at the arrival gate just now...
Finally, after a long wait, I saw him....
Adrian is back!!!

Sorry for the craziness... haha..
He gave me a really long and tight hug once he saw me...
It feels so Gooood to be able to hug him once again...
And then, out of nowhere, he presented me with a teddy bear in liverpool jersey...
I was touched, not because of that bear, but because I know he always think of me wherever he goes...

Now, I can't wait for each day to come to spend time with him...

The anticipation that I'm having now is overwhelming...
Can't wait for friday to come.
After 9 months, has he changed? Be it appearance or character?
I'll be able to find out soon...
In 3 more days to be exact..

I've been picturing the scene at the airport a million times in my mind, even in my dream..
I've been wondering how it will feel to be able to see him in person, to be able to touch him, to be able to hug him after so long...

31 May (Wed) - Shiraz Dinner

My OG friends will try to meet up once every week after work for dinner.. David even has a name for the gathering, he calls it "The Supper Club"...lolz... It always feels good to be able to meet up with them, cause I can just laugh so much..
Anyway, ytd we had dinner together again, and I took some pictures.. It was meant to celebrate Ziyang's Bday (which was on the 30th May), but i guess there wasn't much celebration.. haa.. still, we had fun...

P.S: The following picture captions are just for laugh..=)

Me, Shuping and Jieying!
