Random Thoughts of a Lioness

The reward of conformity was that everyone liked you, except yourself.

Oh God, give me a reason...I'm down on bended knees..

After 15 years, BoyzIIMen is still one of my faves!

NickNice and I left our partners in the room (in my case, together with Lil Cub) and shaked our booties and sang along to the group that brought us so many memories. It was my birthday treat for NickNice, my friend of 16 years. The last time we went out for a night out like this was for the Force of Nature concert.

I loooove their rendition of Doing Just Fine - it took me back to my small uni room, back in Winter,1999. And their other hits like Mama, Motownphilly and of course, End of the Road sounds exactly like it did years ago. Our only comment was that it was too short (and that the people next to us are sooo boring - they refused to dance and sing along!).

The concert ended about 10 pm - of which took me back to reality and the mommy role. But it was worth it. I just wished Buster could've joined us as well. But he did a marvellous job looking after the little one.

*I love you*

Two weeks into the new year

Yup..it has been 16 days since we've embarked on 2007. And between the last post until now, so many things has happened.

Summary:

1) My dearest Emm got hitched. She wants to be called 'The Chick Formerly Known as Miss Emm'. Kaybes and Emm - we're so happy for you!

2) The cow for our Qurban this year escaped and ran to the neighbour's house. They had to finally shoot the leg.

3) Lil Cub turned for the first time on January 3rd. Not once, not twice, but 3 times in a row. Then penat and refused to do it anymore. *Now he does it only when Ibu begs him to*.

4) Met Elisa and his handsome boys over lunch - Izani the vampire is soooo adorable!

5) Decided that I don't need anymore dramas from the people in the mansion. As it is now, we are only going back once a week to see Daddy.

6) The fraternity some sort of an away day over the weekend. Bundled Lil Cub and used emotional blackmail on Buster to follow. (He did a great job taking care of the little one that I think I can afford to have longer time with my girlfriends after this!). Being at the session made me miss having Emm and EllyB around even more.

7) Got tickets for me and NKN for the Boyz II Men concert next weekend. The last time we celebrated her birthday this way was 3 years back!

8) T has decided on the tentative dates for his big day. Now, this sister is gonna have to start planning. First on the list - cincin belah rotan for Widdy's tanda.

I think that sums it up. More entries after this, I promise..
