haha I'm just getting lazier and lazier to blog nowadays! First things first, HAPPY BELATED NEW YEAR everyone! (: 2008 has been a great year where I totally enjoyed my first 7 months working, playing, slacking and being totally stress-free. Working at Starhub was fantastic with fab colleagues, and working under a crazy unreasonable and totally f-up boss at RTC was terrible at that time but in retrospect, definitely a good experience. In the last 5 months I entered my new phase of life at NUS Business, had loads of fun at FOC, and got to know a group of most wonderful friends! (: (Which expanded after Oweek!) Also, there's my first uni exam and the accompanying horrors of it.

Unfortunately, 2008 definitely wasn't a great year for the world, what with the Si Chuan Earthquake, terrorist attacks in Mumbai, the various protests and strikes in Thailand, Melamine posioning in China and now the world wide economic crisis and collaspe of the finance sector. Lets hope 2009 will be better! (:

I have a backlog of many pics so I'll just upload them here and let the pictures do the talking!


Treasures of mine collected over time! Piles of letters from Angel-Mortal, numerous birthday and christmas cards, little gifts, farewell notes and presents in the transitions from pri to sec school and from sec school to jc and finally leaving jc. There's also a separate special box with my collection of stuff from Garfield (: Makes me smile when I go through the items as each brings back a different memory. I was also thinking if touch wood touch wood we do separate one day, I might have to burn it all to spare myself the heartache! haha! Ouch right. But for the record, we're currently happily together and much in loveeee((:


Xmas dinner! We (read: Mom and Sis) baked our first homemade turkey! In case you all accuse me of being a free rider, I did help out okay!! :D I was the one who peeled and chopped up all the garlic to season the turkey with :D A very important role! haha! And it made my hands smell garlicky all day //: I HATE GARLIC btw (other than it being used as a marination)
Xmas exchange was hilarious cus my dad remembered wrongly who he was supposed to buy for and my poor Mom ended up with no present and my brother had 2! My mummy must have been a bad girl this year thats why she had no present haha


And here's my forgetful dad and moomoo on xmas! (:


Cook out at Garfield's cosy little kitchen! (: ck was trying to imitate liu yidao from little nonya in the 2nd pic! haha! Fear not, he is quite harmless although he likes to weild knifes and occasionally stab people :D Our shirt colours look like those double sided colour pencils I used to use when I was young! Nice! (:


Oh, who has cut these strawberries up oh-so-nicely? OF CUS IT ME LAH! haha! :D

We made two items that day! The strawberry marshmellow cake (Claire's speciality) and muah chee! (Garfield's speciality) I reinvented the strawbery marshmellow cake by creating a volcano down its middle! (oops) No pictures of that disaster as I need to erase all evidence so ck cant dig the pic out and mock me! :D

Does it look good? :D


Squadouting finally! (: It was wonderful to meet my beloved squad again! (: Collage courtesy of Tiffany, who took pains to collate everyone's unglam shots! haha!


And a group shot at Swensons to end off the wonderful day! (:


Patronised Pastamania with ck to revisit our first date memories! haha! Its quite funny actually as our dear ck here is not a big fan of pasta but since I didn't know him much before we went out for the first time, I suggested pastamania and he agreed with what he explained now was forced enthusiasm. I was quite amused when he solemnly ordered fried rice at PASTAmania. Funny guy (:

I finally made the decision to chop off my hair again despite resolute resolution to keep it long after my last hair cut! Guess I'm not the long hair kind of girl; I never managed to keep my hair longer than shoulder length! lol!

Pardon the pic on the left but that is the last picture I took with my "long" hair down! My new hair looks abit funny right? I'll just need some time to grow into it /:

Finally! Class outing yesterday at Yong's place!! (:

More pics for facebook people! (: It was a good catch up and thanks Yong for the sweet xmas gifts for Moomoo and Mimi! (: He actually gave my pets and not me lorh!! hahaha! -complains- But the gifts are damn cute (: Thanks soph too for the pouch from Nepal! (: Really pretty and perfect for the minimal amt of make-up I possess! :D

Oh yes, ck's Mom gave me the perfect xmas gift this year too! Its CHANEL's silky eyeshadow duo! (: I love it so much! Wheee!

Okay such a long post! In the end I didn't really let the pictures do the talking, did I? hahaha!

Have a good year ahead everyone and Happy back-to-school too for all! (:
