I suppose this would be the last post of the year. This year has been a pretty good year except for some hiccups and obstacles I've already faced. This post would sum up what I did for the whole of 2009!

1) Last year's new year resolution was to spend more time with my family which I only did so starting from June! A little too late but better late than never. Weekends before June were spent at the beaches of Sentosa or Vivo. So I guess I kinda made the effort to spend time with them! Yes, I did.

2) O level results was.... teachers and counsellors thought I wanted to commit suicide (-.-). Parents didn't blame me because they knew I didn't study ever since the demise of grandpa. WAS supposed to be in AJC playing volleyball as a libero but oh guess what! Damn TP's teachers in charge I freaking hate them for brainwashing me into TPVB and then rejected my application making me almost schoolless. If TP don't blardy needs a libero then let me go and play in AJC dammit! Until now the thought of it irks me till no end.

3) Learning to not play as much volleyball as possible. Earlier this year dad and mom tried talking to me about quitting and I cried for a week because nothing else could replace my favourite sport, not even tennis. Cracks on the spine deepen and it'd never recover so I don't bother going back to the hospital for torturous physiotherapy sessions. The only time I visit the hospital is when I need to restock my gummy bears in the refrigerator.

4) Coloured my virgin hair for the very first time in my life in February. Chopped off 22 inches of hair this year! Am quite surprised that I don't suffer from any heartaches!

5) I am eternally grateful for my group of 8 other girlfriends which makes spastic, spastic :) In life people have about 1-2 close friends but I've got 8! I can talk to anyone of them about anything without feeling embarrassed. Tell me who's the luckiest girl in the world! Me!!! Though I may whine, cry and complain at times, but I must say I'm one happy girl!
Happy I made new friends in school this year. In fact, many!

I haven't really thought about my new year's resolution for next year yet but in the new year ahead of us, I want to play more volleyball. No TP nevermind (the teacher in charge should just K.M.A) but I still have two other Alma Mata arms opening wide to welcome me any time. I wanna play beach volleyball more often too. I sound so ambitious but I really wonder if I have the time to do all these things... Now that I've joined Surf N Sweat, I really gotta take some time out to get back to form because I do not want my team members to regret that they have made the wrong decision to let me play this tournament.

Tired already and I should get some sleep for 4 hours of tutorial straight from 9-1.

K I know I'm damn lag but I'm dissatisfied with the Singapore Idol results. Do you actually see a pattern amongst the winners of the three seasons? Something smells fishy. Don't give me comments like 'Because you didn't vote enough for your idol'. Season 3's winner do have a good voice but I must admit he's not as good as Sylvia. He's good, but frankly speaking he doesn't have the idol substance in him. And also frankly speaking I'd be quite ashamed to let him represent Singapore for Asia Idol...

Today I almost died from wearing heels for about 12 hours especially for people like me who can't even walk like a girl sometimes. But I was too lazy to bring my shoe bag and a set of clothes to change out or else I'd be carrying three bags.

This afternoon something happened and while I was on the phone with Jolene I wanted break down too because everything reminded me of what happened in late October 2008 which made me stone in class and when Economics tutor called my name out to answer a question I got it wrong. Really wasn't in the mood to do anything but I kept thinking and thinking. The more I thought and when I felt my eyes were a little too teary I'd just look down and stare at the floor. Dear Jolene I do understand how you feel but cheer up k!

Results are a very poor measure of success. Or rather they don't reflect hard work in the right way. But fret not I didn't fail any of my papers so far cos I only got back one of the modules today. I got a B+ overall and I don't know if I should be disappointed or to rejoice because it was because of the mini quiz that pulled my grades up or else my grades would be worse off.


But anyway! I have decided not to let this affect me I mean like why should I even be affected. I know a B+ is not too bad but I think I deserve a little more! Was more busy trying to rush home and wait for the delivery man to deliver the food over. Which I thought I over ordered because we couldn't even finish half of what I ordered until we forced ourselves to eat until little was left.

Today, technically yesterday was the last 29th of the year we celebrated and this time it was my turn to organise and I hope everyone had a great time because I know I kinda screwed up the last gathering I planned which was in March.. Anyway the dress code was school uniform so we wore our uniforms! My neighbour saw me in school uniform and didn't dare approach me for fear I might get upset so she went to ask my mom if I retained :S

It's gonna be 3 a.m. soon and I still have so much to do. Sign up for Surf N Sweat but failed. Still gotta practice and memorize my speech!! Pics up soon!

First day of school, snoozed the alarm like a thousand and one times, feeling ever so reluctant to leave the comfort of my bed... Yes that was how reluctant I was to go back to school after all that fun I had during the two weeks break. Surprisingly this short break felt long enough and that's probably because projects kinda make me unhappy but it's not long enough for me to psycho myself to love school. Not hating it but just not looking forward to the lectures and tutorials. It's gonna be another 1.5 months before I take the major exams and there you go!!

By then I really wanna enjoy myself to the fullest. I wanna travel!

Today I was so bored in lecture, Mel introduced me an application to download and it was like downloading books for free! I was reading em during lectures ahaha. But I didn't know I couldn't shut down my touch and now it's screwed up! For the last 3.5 hours or so I have been trying to salvage all the applications I could get back and that kinda sucks! Thank God that Biz Stats lecture is cancelled tomorrow and that would leave me enough time to rush back home waiting for the deliveryman to deliver my BBQ food. So you know what that means...a BBQ party tomorrow!

I'm feeling damn sleepy right now but lao niang has to upload the photos taken since December 17th on facebook.

Christmas was good AWESOME. But this year we didn't go to church on Christmas (whoops) and headed to Aunt Susan's place as usual every year. Had a whole lot of fun hearing Ghee talking crap!! Also with an additional member of the family, 11 month old Junya was here to celebrate with us for the very first time! Can't wait for my other cousin the give birth so I can play with the other one too hehe.

Dinner as usual was at Deanna's place with the rest of the girls cept for Grace.D and Pauline. It'so nice to celebrate Christmas at her place every year and I really do hope it'd be our tradition to celebrate Christmas together... Sleepover at Deanna's but we kept talking and I only got knocked out at 6 in the morning. Got up at 7.15, packed and go home and I didn't sleep much today!

Dad drove Mom for her colleague's wedding dinner and so being bored, we explored Mount Faber. I think I had more memories of myself growing up at that estate than Tampines but it looks like a dead lifeless town now :(
But the view from the top was breath taking... I could see Sentosa, the integrated resort and the universal studio. Hung out at The Jewel Box and tried to kill time!

3.30 a.m. on a Christmas day I'm so excited I can't go to sleep!! Today, technically yesterday, I caught Alvin and the Chipmunks II with Venus and it was awesome. I wouldn't mind watching it the second time....anyone? :) Avatar too I have yet to catch that one!

Bumped into Gracia at Tampines 1 and I actually didn't notice her until I got a shock because who the hell would go up to you and put her face by your ear and call your name! Hahaha Gracia stalker ah!!

Dinner @ town with Mom and Ken. Barely got to enjoy the Christmas lightings at town cuz I was more engrossed trying to make my way from Orchard to Somerset amongst the sea of crowd rather than soaking myself into that sweaty atmosphere..

I should just try to sleep now and wake up early tomorrow!!

MERRY CHRISTMAS ALL!!!

It felt so good sleeping all the way till noon because for once I feel a lot more energetic than the other mornings. Today was short and sweet. Few of us met up to accompany Xin Selena and Ckay for their haircut and then lunch @ Jack's Place and then we visited Daryl at work.

When dad went out to fetch mom from work I kinda sneaked out of the house to do something in order to give them a surprise which is meant for Christmas. Can't wait....!!! Christmas is coming :)

Just got home from all that was happening today! This afternoon I met primary school friend Freddy and went to town for a while to accompany him to get his stuff for a friend. You know, he needed help and wanted me to give my opinion about some stuff so that he could get the perfect gift for his friend....!

Class BBQ at Ivan's place was awesome. In the end there were only 9 people who turned up but heck we still had lotsa fun. I think I barbecue satays well. I reeked of grilled chicken and satays from all that smoke. Played the game zhong ji mi ma and I kena so they made a very gross cup of drink for me which consisted of green tea + coke + peanut satay sauce + dirty hands rubbing and squeezing mini tomatoes + everything else which spells disgusting... Hahaha but I had fun with those who turned up. Thank you everyone. Thank you for making my evening :)
