2008 is coming to an end in one day's time! time flies. During this period of last year, i was still busy preparing for gip, and felt abit "yi yi bu she" to go shanghai..And now,i am already back in Singapore! One year passed just like that before i knew it..Somehow, i feel that this year passed extremely quickly mainly because i spent more than half the yr in Shanghai. As I have said before, in the past i don't really feel that i have accomplished much throughout the year but this year,it's abit different. It was an eventful year for me...
Firstly, i feel that time was well-spent in shanghai and i benefited alot from this trip. The 6mths there passed very quickly and doesn't feel like 6mths at all. I not only had lots of fun there but also learned alot from my daily experiences. I missed the days there whereby we never had any worries and no cashflow problems..All we did was play, eat and shop! HAHAH...I also had my many FIRST TIMES from this trip, for eg:
-first time experiencing snow
-first time going to work ALONE
-first time shopping alone
-first time having so much freedom
-first time hitting a PEAK WEIGHT of 60kg
-first time hearing limei snore and sleep talk!(whahah)
-MOST IMPORTANTLY, first time being away from home for so long!!!!
Overall, it was a really wonderful experience!! I think you have to experience it in order to understand how it feels. It is indeed an important phase of my uni life that i will never be able to forget. Well, i think that i will never have the courage to go on this trip if not for limei's company(don't yaya papaya ah!) because i am such a timid person..so actually she's sort of like a "push" for me to go on this trip! hah...and we had fun together right?? right?? (you can't say NO!)

We look like a pair of thieves!
Limei: Do you still remember this??
Secondly, i finally put on braces! i had wanted to do so for such a long time already, but my mum just refused to let me do it,for fear that it will be painful, uncomfortable blah blah blah..and she even told me that my teeth was quite cute that way ma...haiyo! But after much persuasion, i finally convinced her and she agreed to let me do it..But of course, for me,putting on braces wasn't as straightforward as i thought. But i was determined to correct my ugly teeth, so i still went ahead with it...it was good in a way because i managed to shed away some extra weight i gained in china! Up till now, it's making vast progress and i hope to get it done in less than 1.5yrs! ANd so, i never ever regretted putting on braces, but the thing is, i have to graduate with my braces!!!! it will definitely look ugly in pictures..

Thirdly, i now have a sis-in-law! i always hoped that i had a sister, and now i have one! There's now someone whom i can talk to(though there tend to be some communication barrier at times) and buy clothes with and there's someone who will laugh to my silly jokes! haha..in the past i used to be so "zi bi" and i will laugh on my own like so ah siao! and she will also teach me how to cook, which i don't used to do whereby my mum will do all the cooking. I quite enjoy her company and my family likes her alot too..SO hopefully, the good times will last and there will be less quarrels in years to come!!
Lastly, i am glad that my friendship with fairies have reached a greater height!! We now see each other like almost everyday or at least 4 times a week, despite the holidays. We have unlimited things to talk about, unlimited HTHT sessions and unlimited mass msn chat sessions...My last holiday is kept busy and fruitful with the company of fairies! They are such a fun and crazy group to be with and i am glad that i am one of them..they important to me at this phase of my life and i hope that we will continue to be as close as ever in the years to come! Well, of course, not forgetting my RAINBOW SISTERS and st john clique..it's not that i don't cherish you all as much, but it's just that we don't get to see each other so often now, but you guys will always be important to me!!=)
Finally, my new year resolution for 2009 will be:
To find a good and stable job!
HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!
