Hello '2013!

brought benben to plaza for lunch and to cut his hair.

then it started to pour and we were stuck at plaza!

we had nowhere else to go, so we headed to the library to borrow some books.

benben went to the kids section, while i went to the cookbooks section.

mins later, benben signaled for me to go over.

i walked over, and he showed me this book!

awww~ hahaha!

when the rain got smaller, we hurried home and prepare coz i was suppose to meet i-van!

it's new year's eve!

i didnt even realize until mummy reminded me ytd night!

anw, it's the first time we were allowed to stay out, past midnight!

so exciting and so cool!

only because it's new year's eve and parents allowed me to count down and welcome 2013 with i-van!

aww~ they're so nice!

it was raining, so we decided to stay indoors.

spent NYE playing mj and blogging, with a packet of tapioca chips for me to snack on.

aft mj, i-van sent me home.

we took the mrt to botanics, then decided to cab home from there coz it wont be that exp and it'll be faster too :D

no cab means no cab.

look at the empty road .-.

tsk.

we were hungry, so we got the cab driver to drop us at plaza's macs for supper.

super fattening i know, but we were hungry!

ahh... once in awhile, should be fine :|

hello 2013!

tt was how i spent my NYE.

on a side note, i hope to put the past behind me :'(

coz i only want YOU to walk down the aisle with me, walk through all the good and bad times, and walk with me for the rest of my life.

xoxo, A.
