Thursday, January 29, 2009 HAPPY CHINESE NEW YEAR! :DD haha okay im not exactly early but chinese new year is fifteen days so technically im still on time yay! oh yah before I continue, I shall declare that im bound to go bonkers if anyone else wishes me happy 'niu' year. the first time I heard it I thought it was cute but after hearing it umpteen times, I am sick of it so yah, please stop. :D anyway as promised, I shall blog about my trip to malaysia for chinese new year. It was truckloads of fun and the atmosphere was convivial. I love being with my relatives, I feel like we are one big and happy family, non judgmental nor awkward. what I especially adore is that when im with them, there is absolutely no need for small talk or any of those exaggerated politeness. Instead, there is constant laughter because when we are together, everything suddenly becomes funny and we kept talking and laughing and talking and laughing again. :DD In malaysia, there is much more of the new year spirit as compared to that in singapore, in my opinion. I think it's because of all the firecrackers, pretty fireworks, all the streets lighted up with lanterns and decorations and lion dances everywhere. the fireworks this year was brilliant, nicer than the national day's display I saw in singapore. I think it's because we were at the rooftop and very close to the fireworks, it's as though you can reach out and grab them. most importantly, I think it's special because we were one of those who put the fireworks. exciting! :D we were so proud of ourselves lol. :D my cousins and I had a lot of fun playing several random games. this year, we gambled a little as well hahaha my friends will be proud of me. previously, we would play games like ice and water, hide-and-seek and the eagle catching chicks game. which means this year I officially upgrade to higher level. anyway I won a grand total of around two dollars lol. not bad not bad, can buy a mr bean pearly soya milk. :D one particularly memorable incident was when a pack of us loaded onto the back of my uncle's lorry. we stood up and tarted singing new year songs and clapping freaking loudly, attracting a lot of attention along the way. hahaha crazy and stupid. :DD and throughout the few days, I kept eating and eating like some glutton. and I swear im addicted to bak kwa. super yummy and I cannot resist it, ate close to 50 slices in total I think and nope im not kidding. and then there was the chocolates, yummy wafer sticks my grandma bought and nian gao. however one bad thing is that throughout the whole trip, I had those horrible rashes and all the clinics were closed so I could not even see a doctor. they not only hurt but also itched so badly and it took all my mental strength to not rip my clothes off and scratch and scratch and scratch...haha but after applying my cousin's cream, they dried up and it's alright now, except that they are still as hideous as ever. now I could only hope they disappear quickly, and without a trace please. anyhow im back im singapore and I miss my relatives but life goes on. haha I shall visit them in a few months I suppose. (: meanwhile, I hope my grandma stays healthy. she seemed more fragile than before and can no longer climb rambutan trees like how she did a year ago. thus my new year wish is for everyone around me to stay healthy always, for they are all important to me. alright! that's all for my lengthy and wordy and no pictures chinese new year post. :D I shall go sleep now! goodnight everyone hope your new year was fun too. signing off, viting
Thursday, January 22, 2009 my lousy previous blogskin kept having problems so I had it changed! the profile and everything is the same though, I simply transferred everything to a new template. :D I am now trying to sorta revive my close to dead blog. have been busy with school, basically trying to meet the deadlines for our projects. yup but just like how good things always come to an end, bad things do eventually come to an end as well. hahaha thankfully. :D and now, we only have one more ideas project left. :D haha and surprisingly, despite the numerous times I skipped lessons due to various reasons such as lack to motivation and being a hopeless sleepyhead, I have no warning letter. many of my friends, even innocent ones like shi tian managed to land herself with one. well, I think I have my classmates to thank, for they always help me take attendance if I skip lecture. :D but! I have decided! I shall not skip any lessons from next week onwards! :D die now I think I sound like a classic case of gamblers who insist that they will quit their addiction, you know they never succeed. quarreled with my dad just now due to really stupid reasons. super dumb and now I just find the whole episode amusing. but dad and I are still not speaking. we are on cold war and I shall not be the first one to give in. :D many fun stuff happened last week but I forgot the details and so I shall not blog about them. nevermind, next week I will blog about chinese new year. :D and I have scary rashes on my back and some at my right arm. oh no what's wrong with me? hope it's nothing serious, I am rather worried. they look hideous too. somebody save me! haha most likely the only person that can save me is the doctor, I shall see one if I dun recover by the time I come back from malaysia. alright, enough of random stuffs, I shall go to bed now. (: planning to go marketing lecture tomorrow! hardworking me! :DD signing off, viting
Sunday, January 11, 2009 so on eighth of January I officially turned eighteen. :D actually to me it seems the same, except one year closer to death. meanwhile, it should be up to me to shine brighter everyday, not the candles on my cake. :D ironically, my birthday is also a personally significant time where I tend to have tons of feelings all crashing down on me and my genius brain. :D but here, I shall simply thank everyone who wished me happy birthday and for all the presents. I feel loved and I would switch places with nobody on earth, I love being me. :D although I had to go to school and rush projects as usual,(of course, I am not the emperor) I still managed to take some time out throughout this week to celebrate with people who matter. :DD so life's good, as usual. it would be even better if I could stop slacking around and actually start on my tutorials. (x Geo Challenge here I come yayyyy! :D (kidding, I mean accounting here I come!) what can I say? life goes on. (tough luck) :DD signing off, viting
Sunday, January 4, 2009 so, yet another year and it has already been three days into the new year of 2009. I delayed updating about it partially because I was hoping that I would start feeling something for it. I mean, it's a new year and a new beginning! surely I ought to feel excited or something right? yup so after a couple of days, I still dun feel particularly excited or hopeful or anything. I mostly feel well, pretty neutral but I suppose that is normal right? In any case, I shall bid farewell to 2008, which was a fine year. and embrace 2009, hoping that it would be a better year. I told my sister that my resolution is to be a better and nicer person. subsequently, she rolled her eyes and stated that it was a pointless resolution. so I came up with several new ones. firstly, I hope that in 2009, I would stop sweating the small stuff. also, I am tired of being so passive about certain aspects of my life so I aim to seize the moment more and do what I want to do at the moment I want to do something. :D also, I want to work harder in my studies. okay scratch that, I need to work harder in my studies and stop putting things off till the last minute. :D of course other than those above, I came up with a short list of my own, a more detailed one. hopefully, by the end of 2009, I would be done all that I sought to do. but as many of you may have known by now, I suck at keeping resolutions and rock at coming up with tons of excuses for myself. haha anyway, wish me luck! :D so here's to a fabulous year ahead! (:(:(: goodnight. signing off, viting
