Ok.. So much abt V-day in the prev entry.
Now abit more abt my life excluding V-day celebration. Basically, I'd been busy with my umpiring job & referee course for this month.
So busy to the extent that someone complained that I din have time for her. Not that true lah..
Coz if I'd a full time job, I think I wld even be spending more time at work than now, rite?
Nway, despite my heavy schedule, I still made time out to acc XBB & family for a day trip to Muar/Batu Pahat & also went for my dental appointment (OUCH! more to my pocket thou.. LOL..)
And guessed what? I finally get down to what I've been planning doing for YEARS!!
YES!! I went running the other day @ the stadium!! & even acc my parents in a game of picker ball..
My 1st time playing & gosh, I've to admit, it's actually quite fun!!
OMG.. I practically forgot that I've a blog lah!!

Rebel Alright, now for Feb 2009 highlights.
Now, for many pple, Feb is most significant to couples because of Valentine's Day!!
“Thanks to a concentrated marketing effort, Valentine's Day is celebrated in some Asian countries with Singaporeans, Chinese and South Koreans spending the most money on Valentine's gifts.” (Quoted from Wikipedia).
Well.. Call me cynical or what.. I admit that I'm one person who is more practical than romantic, & personally felt that V-day is just an overly-exaggerated day which is carefully made use of by merchants to mark up prices & gain more profits!! Trust me, if u pull 50 couples who were busy celebrating V-day (aka generously “donating” $$ to “charity”) & ask them abt the history of V-day, I bet more than half of them have TOTALLY NO IDEA or even heard abt Saint Valentine!!
XBB & I had a talk abt this issue on V-day itself. LOL. I’m glad XBB understood my point of views. Nevertheless, we went
Wine Affaire to chill out after dinner & I gave XBB a heart-shaped balloon with a cute bear picture a few days after. And XBB was so delighted & surprised by me. ^.^
Now b4 u comment that I din follow what I preached earlier, let me say this.
The balloon was not a gigantic one u see couples carrying ard on V-day itself (those cost loads & will deflate in a matter of weeks & all u left is a piece of aluminium wif a string, pumping it wif Helium again cost u more $$), on the contrast, mine is a cute little balloon & to show my sincerity, the balloon is blown up by me too. XBB was very amazed by this, coz I actually showed it in front of her. ^.^ And trust me, it’s really not bought at a marked-up price. =)
Ok.. I'm gg out now for lunch @ XBB's work plc..
Will continue in a new entry tmr.. Cya!
