simply can't wait =)

Will be embarking my SQ flight to Shanghai soon! In fact, it's only 8 more hours away! ^.^

This trip to Shanghai will be to compete in another dragonboat race. There will be 2 segments to it, long distance of 3km, and short distance of at least 500m. Have been training hard for it just hoping to receive an overseas medal. I'm praying really hard that my team will be able to achieve it this time round.

Can't believe time flew pass so quickly! Feels as if it's just yesterday when our coach brought to our attention this Shanghai race =D

Not only am I excited about this race, I'm also excited about my first overseas trip with <3! Just can't wait to spend even more quality time with him. =)

Too bad I will be missing my nephew's first month celebration on Sunday =( But that's just one more reason to motivate me to win that bloody medal ;)

xoxo,
Mabel

Bangkok!

I'm finally going on a holiday this year! What a vast difference this year is compared to last year. I've become domesticated. HAHA. Wonder who can do that to me... well, only that one special person... Anyways, I'm going Bangkok with my DB peeps and I'm getting excited! It was an impromptu kinda holiday as Bangkok is not in my list of to go place. I had a bad experience the last time I was there and didn't get what the hype is about. But then again, it could probably be the companion I went with and the agenda the other time. It was more work then fun. I can't wait to get on that flight and fly away... hopefully I'll come back refreshed! xoxo, Mabel

That indescribable feeling

I was pondering to myself why people say that when you love someone, you couldn't give a reason why you love him/her. If you could give a reason, it just goes to show that you love those qualities in that person, not the person. In the past, I am a firm believer of the latter. That love has no reasons. When reflecting on my own relationship, I was thinking to myself whether is it really true. That love has no reasons. The romantic side of my thinks it's true, while the pragmatic side says otherwise. Here's what I have concluded. I love that my man is dependable, easy going, good natured, positive in attitude and outlook in life, stable. Basically the rock in my life (there's no need for any other rock, seriously). But hey... Lots of men possess the qualities stated above. But none is able to capture my heart like how he did. THAT is the reason I cannot find words to explain. THAT is why I am drawn to him and not any other guys that possesses the same qualities...

Musings of the day

This morning I was going through my insta stories and saw Tony Gaskins (I love this guy) ask me a question session. It was so informative, and an eye opener to see so many people airing their relationship issues. It put a lot of things into perspective, especially seeing things from a 3rd party POV. Seeing what sort of advice all of them are seeking, the answer is already very glaring, but they are blinded by it and chose to ignore it. The same happened for me. The answer was glaring when I expressed my feelings a few months back, but I chose to hold on. Well, no more. When I finally opened my eyes and see things as what it is, I felt, free. Free from my own demons, own insecurities. And I felt ready to move on and focus on something else. What I have learnt is that true love never leaves you doubts and sadness. I have to learn to think for myself. On that note, I have decided to take a break from my DB team. Reason is very simple. It is a toxic relationship, one that limits my grow...
