It's the first time i've ever match made any of my friends. It wasn't "very" intentional as well.
What happened was:
A guy collegue asked me to join his farewell drinks at Priv one Friday night. He wanted to introduce some of his friends to me and insisted I must go - because it was his farewell.
I asked if I could bring along a few girlfriends to keep me company and of course, he said it was fine. I asked a few but only one could make it. Coincidently, one of her friends were going to be there on the same night too. And later in the night, we found out it was the same group of friends as my collegues.
So, the Friday night at Priv, under the super noisy and dark atmosphere, I introduced and they started chatting. I talked to my collegue (now ex collegue's) assistant while the 2 chatted.
After a few drinks, my girlfriend and I left for dinner. The others stayed on at Priv.
The next day, comments were:
"She is hot !! " and she was like "He's quite nice and outgoing"
They added each other on facebook. They started chatting on facebook, meeting up for lunch, meeting up after works for drinks, then having Saturday brunch, movies etc etc...
And today, I was told they are officially together. I'm so happy for them :)
I hope everything works out for them !!
Revolves around a sparkling world of small to big things that happen and love sharing the way I think with the people who are in my life. I believe laughter and eating yummy desserts is the best tool for stress relief.

Jervis Bay
I've been wanting to go to Jervis Bay for ages and I finally went this Easter long weekend. I've heard alot about the amazing white sand beach (Hyam Beach) and all the fun things that you can do there.
My friends often tell me how good places to go are and where to eat. I would always go and try but I would never set any expectations. If i do, I know I will be disappointed. I rather not set any expectations, enjoy and have a really great time, thinking it was wonderful.
I did the same with Jervis Bay. Many of my friends that have been have raved about how great it is. I've been looking forward to go for a long time. I wasn't disappointed. The beach was amazingly beautiful. The white sand was alot whiter than the sand in Sydney beaches, and alot softer. The perfect sunny weather helped of course but it was gorgeous.
Roy and I sat on the beach for a few hours in and out of the sun, just lying on our beach mats, snacking on chips and poppers, reading a book and chatting. We also jogged up and down the beach, watching dogs play in the water. It was truely relaxing.
We also went horseriding. It was my first remembering experience. It was great. I really enjoyed it. The 1 hour trail ride was really good. Sitting on the horse, bobbing up and down, looking up in the crystal blue sky, smelling hay and the greens from stems, looking at the stems and stalks of dry plants and feeling the warm of the sun was alot of fun, despite my nervous sweating hands holding on to the rope. I never thought that I would enjoy looking a dry long stem trees but it was nice. I'm glad I wore long pants and a long sleeve top, otherwise I would of gotten lots of scratches.
We stayed at a bed and breakfast which was really nice too. They had 4 rooms and the people there were quite nice. There, we met a lovely couple from Melbourne. It was a really nice and cosy environment. When we came home, we were greeted by other people who stayed. In the morning when we got up to go out to the kitchen for breakfast, we were greeted by "Good Morning" by the other guests there and have a quick chat about each others day plans. It felt very warm. The feeling was definitely not like staying in a hotel where you'd just ignore the guests and they ignore you.
The b&b was only a 3 min walk from the beach and they had good facilities. They had a chess board on the coffee table, and I was taught to play a game of chess. Lost, because I was cornered, but alot of fun :)
On one of the nights, we just stood outside, looking up the dark sky, looking at the glowing shining stars. There was so many. Like Roy said, a view that we wouldn't be able to get in Sydney.
The trip to Jervis Bay was really relaxing, very romantic, very memorable and alot of fun. Just what both Roy and I needed. A wonderful 3 day break.

Typhoon
Disappointed because I knew that problems and issues were coming my way soon. I didn't realise it would be this soon.
Expected was another month before a typhoon came my way. It's come alot sooner than expected. Maybe it's just better not to set any expectations and hope.

Pinky Restaurant
Roy and I went to Pink Salt in celebration of our 11 months. It was a really nice restaurant and the atmosphere was really relaxing. They had a pink menu, pink flowers, pink cushions and pink cloths on chairs. The food was pretty average, but we had a really good time. The lounges were really comfortable :)
