At first I was quite depressed that I have to be back in school by 3pm on sunday to do project. There goes my precious sunday thats supposed to be family day. But.. we had so much fun doing project!

Its nice working with them cos they are easy-going people, like Hongzhuang, he's a year3 student double specialising in Accountancy and Banking (which means he's VERY clever), but he's such a friendly and fun person. When we're at work we'll see the intelligent side of him, when we're playing he'll show the cute side of him.

And there's Carmen who's an exchange student from Hongkong. She's a nice person to chat with and she's so innocent. So our common topic will be my favourite HK dramas and canto songs! We're both in love with 张敬轩's 酷爱!!

Then there's Boonpeng. He's 22years old and he still likes spinning his chair. I made him turn 10rounds in his chair and he still can walk normally. I felt like vomitting when he spin me.

I've only known the 3 of them for barely 2weeks, yet there's so much fun whenever we meet up. After our project, we rushed to Canteen 14 for western food! Lucky we made it in time. Thats to reward ourselves for working for 5long hours.

From the extreme right thats Carmen, Boonpeng, Hongzhuang, then Shuehyi and me!I kind of like staying in hall now.. Its less tiring now that I dun have to travel so much everyday, and its good that I have more personal time for myself. Like when I've had a bad day in school, at least I wont have the chance to vent it out on my parents. I'll tend to take them for granted when I get to see them everyday and I hate that feeling.

I'm also closer to my roommate and neighbours now. Will talk to my roommate till late at night, and my neighbours will come over to my room to watch 黄金路 with me..

Jy have gone to London and I miss her so much! She wrote me an email the night before she left, and I cried. You know we'll tend to take our friends for granted when they're around. When's the last time u smsed a good friend to ask how she's doing? When's the last time you made an effort to arrange for a lunch or dinner with your good friend? We're always so busy with our own life that we seldom contact our close friends.. Though jy and I seldom meet up when the school term starts, I always have a safe feeling cos I know she's just an sms or a phone call away. It feels uneasy that she's gonna be in London for 10days and we cant keep in contact. Hope everything goes smoothly for her there..

Hi guys, this is going to be a short one, cos I need to sleep soon!

School has started, and yesterday was the worst first day of school ever!

There was nothing but bad news- I'm having 2 presentations next week.
And my following mondays are going to be just as tiring and bad as yesterday cos up till now, I'm unable to get the wed slot for my tutorial.
Meaning monday lessons are from 8.30am till 3.30pm without break, then 5.30pm to 8.30pm. Audrey reminded me that I have lessons from 8.30am to 8.30pm.

And I really need more time to get used to living with someone whom I dunno. I mean we do chat when both of us are in the room, and she's quite a nice girl.. But its gonna take some time for me to get used to staying in the room alone.
She's not like Sarah, she dun have to care whether or not I'm afraid of being in the room alone or sleeping alone, she doesnt have to stay in the room every night to have dinner with me.. Its like I can do watever I want and likewise for her. We are purely just roommates.

Maybe as time passes I'll prefer such a lifestyle?

By the way, the environment is making me so courageous! For the first time in my life, I took a tissue paper and picked up the beetle-like insect and threw it away. And then I took the magic clean and swept a living dragonfly all the way out of my room! I dunno where I got the courage from. I'm so proud of myself.

I really need to thank Sarah, Audrey and Yanting. They were with me the past 3 nights when I felt so depressed, lonely, and when I needed company most!

It was supposed to be a Christmas gathering, but everyone was so busy that it was postponed till today. We still had gift exchange though.

Before exchange.. (with the gifts we prepared)

After exchange!
Ehm, I think from this pic it may be abit difficult to see wat my gift is cos its being folded. It isnt very nice to unfold it la. They say I can wear it to my exams for good luck..


Yesterday we were out shopping, then we saw these very fashionable baby clothes! So cute! Nowadays kids are damn lucky rite.. Last time all we had was mickey mouse, donald duck or ninja turtle!
Jy doing all her best to stuff her big arms into the little jacket.
And when I'm back to my grandma house for dinner, I see mini things again. They're so sweet and cute!

There was a family gathering at my house last sunday.. There was a super super delicious durian cake to celebrate new year!


Every sunday when we gather, we'll engage in our favourite activity.
You know, its actually my grandma's favourite activity la. When she win, she gets money. When she lose, she dun have to pay. Of cos fun rite!

On 31st, we went out for dinner then dessert.. Thats my almond paste with a drop of sesame paste and a drop of peanut paste.
We made a last minute decision to go to Audrey's house to countdown.. Mh rushed over to join us too, but we didnt make it. We spent the last few moments of 2007 in the lift!

It doesnt matter where you countdown, as long as you're with your loved ones!

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!!
