A Rose, A Ball and A Baby
#1: I received my very first flower from a boy! That boy is none other than You-Know-Who, of course.. It was a red, red rose. Despite me not liking roses because of their association with the very commercialised and overrated Valentines' Day, I was still very pleasantly surprised. Thank you, John! (yes, that's You-Know-Who's real name.. it's not Voldemort like you all guessed it to be)
#2: I'm going to the UMSA Ball on the 27th of August, which is on the first Sunday of the mid-sem break.. Perfect timing! The theme is "Revival of the Fairytales". I'd like very much to dress up as Little Red Riding Hood, but after seeing the costumes available for hire, I changed my mind. They're way too tacky, and the price is about the same as buying a dress. So, I've decided to buy a nice dress instead. :D Not gonna show pictures until after the ball, of course, but here's a sneak peak of what I'm wearing:

Pointy high heel shoes! The heels are about 6cm high.. so that would change my measly height from 154cm to 160cm!! I just hope my feet won't be killed in the process. Lol!
I'm really looking forward to the ball. Firstly, it's my first ball. Secondly, on the day of the ball, it will mark our 5-month anniversary! Hehe, such perfect timing.
#3: Last, but definitely not the least... the arrival of John's niece! Baby Charlene was born on the 4th of August, and on the 6th, I went to visit her (and her mum too!) at the hospital. I carried her for a bit. She was crying at first, but stopped when she was in my arms... Not that I'm all that special or anything (although I like to think I am special), because she started crying soon after. Bleh. Then, on the past Sunday, I visited baby Sharlene again... this time at her home. I held her in my arms for about an hour. For a tiny little thing, she sure is heavy! But since she's such an adorable little thing, I don't mind one bit. :D Cuteness sure goes a long way.. As can be expected, many pictures of her was taken. To see a couple of pictures, go to John's blog. One of it shows me carrying the baby!
That's all for now, folks. Will be back next time, with pictures! Adios!
