Tragic December

Lots of things happened this month!


Firstly, the tragic exams ended in Dec and results were released on 23rd Dec. But glad that things didn't turn out that bad for me and Kelvin.

Secondly, we encountered a rough patch in our relationship but we had the courage to finally confront each other and to talk about our problems which eventually boiled down to just one problem-communication. Because we loved each other so much we were afraid to express how we felt sometimes which eventually resulted in miscommunication. But through the tougher times we had together, we love and cherish each other even more...and had a wonderful xmas eve together.

We had a feast at Pizza Hut and went to watch Bedtime Stories during midnight on xmas eve. Before the movie, we exchanged presents we bought for each other. Haha that day was really special because Kelvin was dressed very nicely and he did smell good. Haha..he gave me Walle toys and a 4GB Sony thumbdrive which contained a special video on us..I got him a crocs handphone pouch with Walle buttons on top which he thought was better to place his camera in for support instead. Lol..anw im just glad he likes it that way too! But the most important thing that day was that we both enjoyed each others company and time spent together that day really felt special. Here are some pics we took..







Thirdly, my mum fell, knocked her head and broke her elbow in the childcare she was working in. Really quite tragic and felt quite upset that she was so badly hurt. Luckily her head was alright, except that her elbow is in a cast now.

The last thing happened today..on 31st Dec 08. Our sweet 7th month anniversary together..We met with an accident in Sembawang. While trying to change lane, a bus travelling at high speed suddenly cut into the lane we were trying to change into and damaged the front left side of the car. Could hear the front left headlight break and glass scattering. Then the front license plate dropped too. Bumper was also damaged. But the most important thing was that both of us were not injured and the bus driver was reasonable. He told us to claim from insurance.



Then we drove slowly back to Kelvin's place and looked for numbers to call. After that we drove to the place for accident claims. But the people there said that Kelvin was at fault and it was hard to win the case against the bus driver. Because he did not own the car he had to pay for the damages. Poor Kelvin..He did look upset and shocked..And it really wasnt his fault cos the bus was travelling so fast and his car was slow to respond.

Haiz but we couldnt do anything bcos it had already happened..Then we went to have lunch at 4plus..was starving by then..and had a good meal for dinner cos it was our anniversary. Just hope that we can put the incident behind us and learn from the experience. Accidents are unavoidable sometimes..
