I may not be running at 100% yet, but I’m certainly feeling loads better. =) Unfortunately, the one day I feel ready to go out into the world, everyone has plans. And I’m suddenly hit with a very depressing mood. What timing.

Right after work today as I was driving up the ramp from the basement carpark, I felt very very down all of a sudden. I can’t explain it. I think I’ve had too much on my plate in recent weeks (I’ve been MIA for a mth!) and it’s finally taking its toll on me. I’ve lost so much weight and it’s a b*tch trying to get it on again. Regardless of how my mood suddenly dropped on me earlier, once I reached the top of that ramp, there it was. The most beautiful rainbow I’ve seen yet, suspended in the sky directly in front of me. I think what made the colours look so bright were the gray clouds behind it. It just looked amazing.

So I’m going to be positive and take this as a sign that I should keep my head up. And things will start looking better.  Burst of colour in the vast expanse of gray. Oh god, it has to get better.. I’m at the end of my tether already. =/ Fingers crossed.

As I’ve stopped blogging for so long, I thought it was abt time to start again. It’s just past halfway through the year so I guess it’s quite fitting to start blogging in these new digs (Thanks Mars!).

If everyone’s wondering why I’m been MIA, it’s because I’m STILL recovering from my Paris trip.. to sum it up, it was horrible. The airlines lost my bag (8 days without clothes! and they still havent found it..), i caught a fever, lost my voice, we almost missed our flight home cos the airport is SO NOT systematic.. and when i get home, my mum breaks the news to me that my darling German Shepherd of 11yrs, Max had passed away. =( 

So no, I don’t exactly feel like myself lately. Havent had the mood to blog either. Give me a couple weeks, I’ll be back on par.

After a weekend away for Hippo’s hen night, it’s straight back to work. I haven’t spoken to any of the girls since we parted ways at the airport upon arrival back in Brunei, but I’m quite sure none of them are very happy about being back in their respective offices today.

I can’t help thinking that if our mini-break had gone off without a hitch throughout, it would’ve been a much more satisfying holiday for all of us. I know all of us wish that we had more time to lounge around and just relax. We spent most of the time shopping. Well, that was part of the plan as there were wedding things to buy. But I do wish we’d spent some time in the pool and on the beach. I think the only time we got to bum around was when we were all so tired, we just fell asleep before dinner. hehe

I wish I could’ve made it more memorable.. but the memories we have to share are valuable in their own right. Even the crappy first night which I shan’t even mention. Regardless, we’ve all managed to bond a little bit more and we’re happy to be home.

I can’t wait to see the girls again. It’s only been a night and already, I miss them immensely. We’ll have to do a meet up where we relive all the moments and tell the boys that we were thisclose to joining THEIR stag weekend. =P And yes, we have lots of pictures to share. =)
