stayed home the entire day today TRYING to pack my room.
well. i only managed to clear my 'overdue' magazines that have been lying by my bedside table for a million years.
and ive finally cleared all my receipts and realised ive spent waaYY too much this month.
and the worst thing is. ive yet to get a job.
hope the guy gets back to me soon and i can start work quick.
i need the money!
haha. but anyhows.
relatives came over to celebrate countdown with their usual mahjong session and family get-together.
got to watch the fireworks from the harbourfront area.
quite a great view from my place.
and it lasted for 15 mins.
not badd.:)
a new year. a brand new beginning.
a time to start resolutions anew.
half the year i would be still be free with holidays.
hope a job keeps me occupied and providing me with extra income.
the past year has been a rollercoaster ride for me.
good and bad. another chapter has closed for me.
a levels have come and gone.
ive ended junior college life in a whirlwind.
and im now to embark on another journey soon.
anyhows. im so thankful to god for keeping me and giving me strength throughout all the trying and difficult times i had to go thru this year.
and i know he will continue to keep me in this coming year ahead too.
im also thankful for all the friendships kept and made.
im looking forward to what the new year has in stored for me.!
new opportunities. new beginnings.!
best wishes to all of u too :)

&the beauty.

haha.
he's totally full of crap and telling me interesting stories.
halfway thru the driving course alr.
i hope i will pass at the end of it all :)
anyhows. its all going well for now.
later on met hui to get stuff. =p
and its all settled. !
happy. :)
yay. cant wait till tt day.
so funn.!
ok. im updating only cuz im bored.
till then. tataa!
&the beauty.
yesterday was driving again for me.
man. its becoming more like a chore.
sometimes i just dread waking up so early in the morning just to go for my lessons.
but well. i wanna get my license.
so what to do?
lucky fel had lessons tt day too. so i had company :)
later on we met hui for breakfast at mac's before the both of hui and i headed down to town to catch chronicles of narnia while fel went off to give tuition.
well the show was nicee. =)
we shopped and walked around a lil before going home.
my family dinner-ed at modesto's orchard parade hotel.
food there was not bad but ambience was definitely good.
had swensen's ice cream later on. yummy!
mum's on leave till next year.
so today i spent my whole day with her.
just got back from dinner with grandma's at east coast.
yummy seafood and satay bee hoon! =p
gotta go get some exercise soon.
or im seriously gonna gain more weight from all the eating and new year's coming sOOn!
CIAO!
&the beauty.
happy boxing day !
i just got back from malaysia early this morning.
reached singapore at exactly 1200 am.
marking the end of a christmas spent abroad.
i missed christmas back home alot.
the christmas atmosphere there is lacking a great deal.
sparse decorations. no music. early-ending parties and no countdown.
pathetic. tt's the word to describe it all.
but anyhows. the rest of the trip was not bad.
and yea. the main idea of the whole trip was to attend a relative's wedding.
hrm. tea ceremony on the 23rd was interesting.
and it definitely made the US-bred groom well on his toes the whole time.
he didnt exactly know what to do. he was blur half the time.
i kinda pity him. cuz its like his parents and him were left in a situation whereby they didnt exactly know what the customs meant and all but having to go thru them.
but im glad to say he survived thru it well.
probably also cuz of the help my uncles rendered.
they helped him with the many obstacles he had to go thru before entering the door to get his bride.
but worst of all. he had to taste the oh-so-wonderful taste of durian. =p
so anyhows. the other traditons went as usual.
aft lunch and all. we went to ikan0 for shopping before the dinner at night while the family carried on with preparations.
got back to renaissance hotel and got ready before heading to dinner.
the cab ride took ages.
the dinner at summer palace was not bad.
food was good.
and usual chinese wedding dinner proceedings went on.
it was quite fun =)
the next 2 days were more shopping.
managed to get quite a number of stuff.
but due to the lack of time and all. dint manage to get a lot of stuff of my shopping list.
hee. im still a happy girl nonetheless.
i am back and so grateful of life in singapore.
the cabs and streets there are filthy and the air is so polluted.
people there smoke alot too.
which makes it even worse.
its those lil things that make me so thankful for the high cleaniness standards in singapore :)
christmas is over and i hoped u guys enjoyed it! =)
&the beauty.
last night was dinner with ma girlies and tabi in town. =p
it was simply a great time spent together.
havent gone out with tabi in a lONG while.
and i mean REALLY long while.
hee. we'll meet up more k! =p
anyhows. we had dinner at sakura and exchanged presents.
i love the presents girls.! =)
thanks alot.!
christmas came early this year cuz i wont be spending it in singapore anyways.
im missing christmas service and im feeling sad about it.
christmas musical in church would have brought a whole lot more meaning to christmas.
and its gonna be so nice but im missing it. :(
okay. anyway back to the ytd.
so aft dinner we went shopping a lil at taka and in the end stayed at the fountain area outside taka and soak up the christmas atmosphere.
it was nice.! so christmas-sy.
all the carolling by church choirs and all.
the live band playing its accompaniment and the great vocals of the singers from abroad brought the spirit of christmas up. =)
we hung around and took pics till bout 10+ before heading home.
had to go home early cuz of early driving lesson today.
lucky fel's dad fetched or not i would have to wake up much earlier.
tmr's a stay home day for me i guess.
have to buy christmas presents but am damn broke now.
i want my pay!
bryan, quickly come back and give me the 120 bucks.!!!
anyhows. 1 more day till shopping trip :)
happy holidays people!
merry christmas in advance too. :) 
love you girls.=D
&the beauty.
im so freaking sway today man.
got nat's ez link confiscated all cuz of the bloody woman bus conductor.
she kept insisting the person wasnt me and made a big fuss about it.
threatening me and all.
oh wellz. now she wants nat to go down and collect the ez link.
wadever.so damn troublesome.
i just told her my ez link had no money and my friend lent me hers.
she didnt accept it of course and just took the card.
and paying for transport from then on was damn expensive cuz its all adult fare.
and rather inconvenient too.
anyhows. i suddenly realised there's a lot of errands to be done before i go m'sia and days when i have to travel quite a bit.
nat: sorry. but i need my ez link back asap or else the transport cost will burn a big hole in my pocket.
got driving all 3 days next week. damn early somemore.
just hope i wake up on time then.
anywayz today was quite fun.
went out with hui and her friends sharon and wen guang.
went buying christmas presents. fun.:)
i have more to get though.
haven shopped finish. tmr shall continue. hee.
christmas is coming ! yay. cant wait. =D
next week and its off to shopping in m'sia.
hope the stuff there would be cheap and worth buying.
&the beauty.
today was relatively not tt productive.
spent my whole day at shenton way for some job thingie.
it was too good to be true.
hui and i are still considering.
thinking over it over dinner and discussing the stuff with my relatives make me doubt its goodness even more.
i think im rejecting it.
its just too fairytale in this realistic world.
i am not gonna name names and all. just in case.
so well. im sooo looking forward to tmr.!
christmas shopping in town :)
i cant wait for christmas dinner with ma favourite girls =D
then its off to m'sia for me.
yay! more shopping.
mango sales started today. but i didnt go and chiong with the crowd.
shall check out the stuff tmr though.
mum went today and bought tops alr. ;)
till then.
&the beauty.
just got back from dinner at holland village.
was a good meetup after quite awhile. :)
anywayz. im finally freeeee! im soooo happpy!
no more late nights and straining eyes and bruised fingertips due to all the beading.
its all over but im still waiting to get my long awaited measly pay.
anyhows i definitely still want it.
this is wad it was all about.
wad an 'meaningful' job it had been.
haha. first and last time im doing it.
wellz. it had been an experience none the less.
a hand made chandelier.
now i noe how much it takes to make one.
hard work. really hard.
bbq dinner at shaun's place the other day was fun too.
had a great spread of food that we all cant finish.
played mahjong later on. and it was fun!
class clique gathering as usual :)
it was mum's bdae the other day too.
she had many cakes and presents for that joyous day
happy belated bdae mummy! (though i doubt she will read this)
hope she enjoyed herself.
brain's not working tt well tonight.

&the beauty.
&the beauty.
prom 2 nights ago was fun fun fun :)
met up with ling in the afternoon before meeting the guys at the le meridien hotel to put down our stuff.
rushed off to bugis later on to get our hair and makeup done.
by the time we were done it was already quite late.
quickly rushed back to hotel to meet shaun and touch up here and there before heading down to grand copthorne hotel.
wow. evryone were all dressed up and it was hard recognising some of them.
preddie ladies and handsome gentlemen. :)
anyway.the 8-course dinner was not bad too and the programmes were quite funny.
esp the q&a part of crowning prom king and queen.
well. for tt matter andrew and emileen won the titles.
quite expected. =D
and well most of the time it was photo-taking and more phototaking. :)
evrything actually ended quite early. around 11.
but we didnt go for the post prom party at indochine.
in the end we went to chill at the balcony at heeren.
it was a really nice place with great ambience and drinks.=D
really good place to chill out with friends.
so we chatted and all. and got back to the hotel around 3+ in the morning.
talked and watched tv till we all fell asleep.
didnt really get to sleep much though cuz of rudy's so deep sleep and loud snoring.
lol. haha. but i managed to stay awake till i got home.
we had breakfast at the food court downstairs the hotel before packing and checking out.
i had a great time that night.! :)
im glad me and ling decided to go for prom. :)
pics will be up soon. =D
&the beauty.
shopping ytd was great.!
and girlies day out yet again =D
happy. :)
met fel in town and spent quite a bit on cosmetics.
the prelude of our shopping trip.
haha.
managed to get some stuff off my christmas shopping list too. =D
met junyang in town too. he really is quite short. but well his looks can make up for it i guess.
we headed on to bugis later on to meet hui.
she too alr got herself quite a great deal of clothings.
went walking around bugis village.
alot of things to buy and see.
at such affordable prices too.
managed to get a top at a discounted price.
fel got herself a blazer. and i managed to get a belt at a GREAT steal.!
it was supposedly to cost 23.90 but the careless auntie who quoted me 10 bucks all the while had no choice but to accept her mistake and charge me tt.
if she had charged me 23.90 i would definitely kicked up a great fuss there.
oh wellz. she had to handle the unhappy face of the boss' daughter though.
hee. anyway. i got wad i wanted.
and im now a satisfied girl.:)
more to come of coursee.
im having a manicure craving.haha.
shall get one before prom on mon i guess.
tmr's going for some job briefing with the girlies and ling.
den on to bugis again with ling to book the package thing and meeting the guys later on to book the hotel room thing for prom night.
kinda excited preparing for prom and all.
hope its gonna be fun!
24 day more to christmas! :)
&the beauty.
