"The sky's Falling!"
Went to Zion rd(near Tiong Bahru Boon Tong Kee) for roti prata, which according to dd is nice, but then haha I only feel that the honey prata is nice, the rest so-so... However the size of the prata is quite big so in the end it's still rather worth the trip lor..Other famous prata places serves very small pratas like in Jalan Kayu and I dun think it's really that worth ur penny... haha too bad never take the pics of the pratas else can post it here... mabbe next time, check out this blog for dd's food hunt.. muahahaha
Had my 1st experience at parallel parking (w/o instructor and parking poles) yesterday, although managed to get in after several atempts(luckily didn't take too long time). but I guess I can do much better...over-zealous forgot wat my driving instructor's instructions to me for parallel parking outside so anyhow park, anyhow turn steering... next time if I encounter another parallel parking situation, will improve... haha

Next we made our way to Marina Square(cos parking is cheaper there $1.5 per entry) to watch Chicken little yeah "The Sky's falling" haha...The show was alright, basically talking abt father-child relationship but I feel it's abit too short...1.5hrs only minus away the commercials I think only 1hr 10 mins only.

Chicken Little!
After the show , walked around the mall looking for nice food for lunch...then stumbled into a bridal shop called "bridal zone"(actually is dd wan to go tat area see see look look). A staff there called "Ted" is quite good, very friendly and never pester us to "book" the package like other shops and the best thing is he's very honest with us...never exaggerate abt his own product nor speak ill of other shops. Like his style of "marketing" haha somemore earned 2 bottles of mineral water...
After tat talk, went to "imperial Treasure La Mian" for lunch...dd likes to eat la mian ...tat place looks like crystal jade resturant, even the menu and the dishes on it looks similar...later than we found out that the boss is formerly from crystal jade tat's the reason for the similarity...Ate the la mian, soup dumplings (tang bao) and a red bean-banana desert..Overall the food there is quite nice actually nicer than crystal jade...u'll can go visit there next time...

I think that everyone out there who have a loved ones will have their very own love story to tell of how they met with their darlings as for us we prefer to refer ourselves "Dear Dear".So "A tale of 2 Dears" is just to give a account of our love story from how we met to how we became wat we are now. Enjoy reading...
Dear1's Diary
May 1999
I had just finished my 2nd year examinations in Singapore Polytechnic and during the holidays, I am suppose to be doing my ITP which is also my final year project(Robotic pet dog) in campus. When I got to the lab I found out that there was another group of students who were going to do this project with us. My beloved Dear 2 was one of the students in the other group. At that time neither of us knew who the other was. In fact I do not even know her name then it was after a few weeks later that she introduced herself to us(me and my groupmates) that I got to know her. Little did I know that this is the start of a beautiful relationship.
June 1999
We have been working on the project for about a month now,but have not been making much headthrough. However my friendship with her seem to get better as we spend more time together in the lab. I began to develop a crush for her however this crush quickly subsided when I found out that she actually had a boyfriend. so things when back to usual.I do not know whether it was fate at work or wat but we got back our results at the end of the month and she was posted to the same course and class as me.
July 1999
School reopens and we head back to our books, both of us were in the same class. As she does not have any friends in the class she kinda found herself tagging me and my friends. So at lectures and tutorials she would sit beside me as I am her only friend then. We began to understand each other more as we spend more time together.
August 1999
She confided in me that her boyfriend had left her when I saw that she was quite distraught during classes.Being helpful and as a friend I console her and told her to forget that heartless chap. However at this point of time I still did not feel anything other than pity for her(Honest!). She quickly got over her painful relationship though(mabbe due to my companionship?, haa haa) anyway we still went to the lab quite often as we had to work on our project. We sort of got closer to each other and we developed a way of communicating during lectures and tutorials-by writing replies and questions on little sheets of papers. By this time around due to the fact that we were spending much time together, my friends began to make fun of us saying that we were a pair. However i simply brush these remarks aside.
September 1999
We often went out during breaks together. Sometimes in campus and sometimes out to shopping centers. My feelings for her were buried somewhere deep within me, waiting to be discovered.
October 1999
One day she wrote something on the piece of paper(actual content is secret) which I regarded as a hint, I could have hinted to her but I was a very shy boy so in the end, she had to take the initiative. I have always enjoy a strictly platonic relationship with my female peers when I was in secondary school so I sort of "inherited" that kind of behavior into polytechnic and tease and joke with her like what I did in secondary school. After that little sentence she said I went hope and though carefully and deeply. I ask myself whether I do feel anything for her and the answer is "Yes" I do like her but I am not sure whether my feelings is real or not as I have never been in a relationship before so where feelings is concern I am a rookie.Anyway I asked her one night whether she meant what she said and whether she is willing to give me a chance. she did not give me a definite answer but I think her answer is "Yes". I walked her home the next day this is the 1st time I walked her home and only the second time I walk gals home(the 1st was with a netfriend coz it's dark). I wanted to hold her hand but I was afraid that she would reject my approach so I did not do it but chit chat with her for the entire journey. Then exam arrive.
November 1999
After the exams, we,together with a few friends decided to have lunch together to sort of celebrate the end of exams. After the meal, we went for a walk around the city area, I wanted to hold her hand so badly so finally at a CD shop I pluck up my courage and ask her to and she did hold my hands. After that I never wanted to let go even till now... Finally we were together,the day was 6th of November...it's the start of a new begining and I hope that I never had to let go of her hand that was so dear to me...
