1:28 AM
Last Monday of 2007.And I have just decided, I am going to join Rovers, rash decision don’t you think? but then again, almost all my decisions are rash ones and so far, no regrets yet.No offence to YA or anything(Andreas, you can kill me if you want).
And I swear, I am going to change my blogskin really soon(something is really wrong with the current navigations).New year, new faces, new people, new atmosphere and a whole new different ball game all together. I will really miss MF.And I heard they installed AIR-CON IN THE HALL and they have extended the staff room. So much for enjoying it during our Os.
Oh man, I can’t find any videos on the hongdou dance or anything on cuo bing jing xing qu(the official name for hongdou). I am soo gonna die la cos I kinda forgot how to dance most of it since it had been 6 months or so since I last danced it.
To round off 2007, it had been the year of everything unexpected and had open lots of doors for me or rather, a whole new world.It had been a year where I done most of my things with pure guts instincts rather than the reasonable thinking(and weighing the options and thinking of the consequences).And a year of miracles, rekindling old ties and new lessons. And, a year I will never ever forget.
keep in touch, people!

I am back from no internet world!
And I should really change my blogskin.
I thought I will be there till the 21st but thank god that didn’t happen if not I will be miserable and friendless for a longer period of time.
The highlights of the trip…
Shopping at manga dua-this place where they sell really cheap stuff.My Aunt,my 2 sisters and I bought around 18 tees and lots of other stuff.
Mountain trekking in Puncak -we didn’t reach the summit but we trek a route for around 1+ hour up the mountain that brought us to this beautiful waterfall.And when we were going down, it rain very heavily and we got soak down to our skins as we were walking down cos we didn’t bring a poncho.HAHA. great adventure.we are thinking of aiming for the 2+ hour trek to the hot springs next year.hehe.
I missed farewell again.haha.oh well.its okay.
The moment I came back, I received 3 really really great and awesome news from Andreas that make me wish 2008 will come faster. Let’s hope everything goes as planned.
I can’t believe the steamboat dinner is finally coming. I really can’t wait to see them! Haven’t seen those guys in ages man.
Speaking of which, I am free this week(other than Saturday) so it is your cue to ask me out =).

Yesterday was pretty awesome. Kamini and I ended up being the only 2 girls(Shiyama was working;CY just came back from Japan so I guess she was too tired;no idea what happened to JM and Amala)in the whole of the 5G chalet. And people from other class also came too, like Zhibong,Benson,Yushi Kudo and Kamini.But before I start going on about the BBQ, let me tell you what happened BEFORE the BBQ.
I met Kamini at United Square at around 4:30pm and we went to queue up at Starbucks cos they were giving out FREE coffee from 5-7pm and both of us naturally ordered caramel frappachino and while queuing,we were joking about the weird names of some coffee(never realized that before) and it seemed like the people there know Kamini, cos the manager was like saying “darling” and “sayang” to her.LOL.I guess cos she applied for a job there. After that we took the MRT to Pasir Ris and toyed with the idea of getting another cup of free coffee if there is a Starbucks at Downtown East(which didn’t happen).
When we got to the chalet, the guys were already starting the fire. And because there was normal food(beehoon,curry and fried rice) so we all ate that first.HAHA.we were like their servers, asking them what they wanted.And the guys were like teasing me about guides at the same time also. It was delicious, btw and I think the curry finished.No.the potatoes in the curry finished.After the guys BBQ awhile, we took over and I think all the way almost till the chalet finish, we were manning the BBQ(ya, stupid guys took advantage of us! XD).But some of them are quite nice la,in fact, they were especially nice toward us yesterday night. Even people like Alvin were talking to me, which is damn unusual la.
We went out of the chalet at around 11:15pm, Weijie,Fukuan,Dennis and Yusheng were staying over and since we were the last ones to leave, we helped them to finish up the food. Went to buy ice cream at mcd and waited for my mum to come and fetch us. Meanwhile, Kamini and I camwhored.LOL.oh ya, I also saw, of all people, liew jing sheng with his gf! Seriously, I keep seeing them everywhere, at the esplanade library back in June and now at Downtown East. Mum sent Kamini home and I reached home at around 1am.
Best thing about the chalet? We didn’t have to pay them a single cent! Even though we were suppose to pay Yusheng $5 but I think it got written off for the “labour” we did.XD
Pictures will be up soon.
P.S. I got a video of Dennis doing Crank that by Soulja boy that superman dance XD.

My ipod is currently in the ipod “hospital” cos it got wet while I was in Escape playing that water-spraying game, there goes my/my mum’s $153 to replace the battery, hope it will be worth it cos ALL OF MY SONGS WILL BE GONE! That’s the “sacrifice” for the new battery =( but it’s time for new songs anyway.
Jon Mclaughlin is added into my list of favourite artist! His “To Close” is soo nice!! Hold on while I go and find the lyrics. Speaking of lyrics, I got to ask my sis(Fran) where did she get those beautiful lyrics she post on her blog with….
You’re in my arms
And all the world is gone
The music playing on for only two
So close together
And when I’m with you
So close to feeling alive
A life goes by
Romantic dreams will stop
So I bid mine goodbye and never knew
So close was waiting, waiting here with you
And now forever I know
All that I wanted to hold you
So close
So close to reaching that famous happy end
Almost believing this was not pretend
And now you’re beside me and look how far we’ve come
So far we are so close
How could I face the faceless days
If I should lose you now?
We’re so close
To reaching that famous happy end
And almost believing this was not pretend
Let’s go on dreaming for we know we are
So close
So close
And still so far
Nice right? I love this song man.
Class chalet tomorrow.YAY!PARTY PARTY AND PARTY! The guys better don’t faint if I BBQ tomorrow(Fukuan got shocked last year when I helped out =D). Those guys ah….I can never get enough of all the stupid things they do.HAHA.and I am going home really really late, that’s the least I can do. 11:30-11:45pm is counted as late right?Anyway, meeting Kamini at 4pm tomorrow.
“More than meets the eye”-that phrase from Transformers.And im gonna daydream again. Kinda zi-high now and I should really be helping my mum out now and bathing now but I am slacking and downloading all the cds I can get my hands on =D.

This week is gonna to be an exciting week. Going out with Kamini and Xinyi tomorrow, class BBQ on Thursday(couldn’t stay overnight cos no girls staying over) and flying back on Saturday. Then when I come back, it will be my LOVELY DREAMS 5 steamboat dinner. I need to buy lots of presents man and I am going broke(cue for my xmas money to come in.hehe).
This holiday has been really really boring, compared to my holiday in June which was filled up with speech day rehearsals, GGS carnival, dreams 5 preparation, dreams 5 prep camp, dreams 5 the expedition itself and supplementary lessons and technically, I didn’t have one at all but I would rather have all that then have nothing to do like now. I am bored out of my skull man.
Which resulted in me finding me the blog of my sister’s friend and it turn out she been to 2 service learning trips now and she just recently returned from her last one. And in her blog, there was a write-up on the recent trip. I was like OMG when I was reading it, I couldn’t for the life of me produce one right after dreams 5.lol.and she did. I have come to realize that service-learning trips are always link with 2 things: mosquito bites and “At the beginning”-the song(yes! I am serious!).HAHA.And some things are meant for just us to know.Actually I have no idea why am I writing this la, maybe just got reminded and for the fact that I can identify with her.
I’ve got a job…helping my mum out in admin work. =D.$6/hr..in Jakarta and $10/hr in Singapore.LOL.not bad.So this is kinda cheating but at least I get to take leave in this job cos my sisters also wanna help.And after years of guides, admin work comes kinda naturally..LOL.my specialty field you know. That + my xmas money=I am rich! Okay,that’s a joke la. But at least I won’t be broke.
&I don’t have any good enough reasons for me to treat them differently so live with it.
12 to go(wow!),6 down.
