-CHRISTMAS EVE
I wanted to blog about some happy stuffs but dad just gave me a lecture. I'm not complaining about it, because I know when people judge/criticise/scold you, they care enough to point it out to you. And as much as I really want to talk back at times, it's better to just swallow it in, nod your head, apologize and change, for the better. It's just that sometimes, I really wish people would speak the truth with love, it's not easy, but it would make a whole world of difference.
Merry christmas everyone :) It's approximately half an hour away from 251210 :) I'm down with fever, on and off, but i still managed to have some fun today with my family. We went to town for christmas shopping! :D I really enjoyed it! We haven't had so much fun for a long time! It was really some awesome family bonding. Not forgetting the day before, my family + extended family went to USS for an entire day of fun and laughter! Really cherish times like these!
As 2010 comes to an end, there's so much I want to reflect about and thank God for. I really want to bring 2010 to a proper closure. It's always good to record and remember the good and the bad that happened. I don't want to just let 2010 be another year. I'm sure it was a year of growth for not just me, but everyone. Think about the little things as well, they matter. :)
Blessed christmas!

-post exams happiness! :)
Post exams can't get any better! This december has got to be one of the best decembers ever! Because it's so jammed packed with activities almost every single day! And when there's a one day break for me, it's much cherished and I love it. It's good to have some ME-TIME once a while and I get to do things that I really like, alone. For instance, watching korean dramas!!! :D Haha. I'm currently hooked onto playful kiss starring kim hyun joong! I love this drama so much, though I'm only at episode 4.
It seemed as though exams ended long ago but I just realised it was only less than 10 days since my last paper! So 2108 ended with(out) a bang. It was quite a terrible paper! But nevertheless, I was so relieved it was over, bringing another semester to an end. This sem passed faster than usual for me, I don't know why. Everything just zoomed passed as I was checking my schedule for the sem. Packed with projects, assignments, tutorials, lectures, lab sessions, meetings, hall stuffs/co/rovers, tuition, no wonder time flew by so quickly. Anyway, really thank God I made it through another sem! This sem was tougher than usual, not just because the modules are harder, but I had to do most of them on my own, without relying on my senior's help. But God is AWESOME, He really blessed me with helpful friends around, helping me survive modules like, programming. It was initially a struggle but everything worked out and unfolded nicely. Praise the Lord!
After exam, sissy and I chionged to clementi to buy KOI :) And we ate at the hawker nearby caused we were starving by then since our paper was from 1-3pm. Then it was followed by shopping in town and we got some really nice stuffs :) We're into undies suddenly. ROFL! Moving on. Three days of first aid course at St John's with Rovers! :) Having to wake up at 7am everyday and travel all the way to Lavender from nus. It was super far but the course really bonded the comm. It was all worth it! Besides, I managed to catch harry potter and even queued for free starbucks after our course! :) And, our instructor was quite funny-Mr chua hum sup! He was really very hum sup! Even the guys got scared of him. We also went for student leaders networking session at helipad :) Typical kiasu singaporeans chionging for the food and we were all real full! Drank shots for the first time (it was supposed to be an initiation for the comm) and then hung out at yellojello. Alcohol and chickenwings and htht (htht damn fail though, it was so noisy, I could hardly hear a thing). Comm trek briefing the next day and I moved on of hall that day as well! Will be missing my neighbours the entire month <3
Cell group on monday! :) I'm really happy to be seeing everyone again!! It has been so long!!! :) :) Really glad how they still welcome me with open arms despite disappearing for so long! <3 And it made me think a lot. Comm trek from tuesday to wednesday and WE CONQUERED DATUK!!!! :D I'm so proud of us!!!!!! Now I'm suffering from the after effects of trekking. My entire body is aching especially my shoulders (cause of bags were damn heavy) and a lot of mosquito bites (i'm scratching non-stop!). But it was mad fun! :D :D My first time climbing a mountain and the view from the top makes it all worthwhile!!! We really felt like dying on the way up and our only source of motivation was the pasta and all sorts of yummy snacks we brought along! Getting really close with nature (minus the huge insects) felt really awesome! Our alternative dinner was good (because we couldn't start a fire so bo bian, no pasta). Sleeping on the super hard and UNEVEN ground was so terrible but I still slept (and kept waking up cause it was SO COLD). Bathing in the waterfall was an experience like no other. The water was like slapping me right in the back. Damn painful but shiokkk! :D And we ate like hungry pigs after that followed by shopping at city square! :) Comm trek is much loveee!
