"you're a smart girl."

are you just a step further than everyone else?

or is it just difficult to find people on the same wavelength?

-a movie i'd love to enjoy with you.
; moments i'd love to enjoy with you.

becoming the complicated adult aren't you.

Short Notice

A short notice for everyone.

I will no longer be updating my blog.

The blog is still here for my own convenience reaching other people's blog.

I will still drop by my blog, so if you have anything to tell me,

drop me a tag. =)

Thank you for the support!

* I may still update, but it might be very rare.

We're planning something.

no telling yet.

coz' I don't even know whether we'll go through with it yet.

one picture will suffice.

CNY is coming.

how many of you guys dread cny.

i'm beginning to not look forward to it.

you just feel like running again.

maybe because i'm getting older,

and the fact that i can't really communicate with the family.

I read the papers today,

and there was an article written by Sumiko Tan.
(I love reading her articles btw.)

"So close, yet so far"

She wrote:

"I like my relatives - it's just that I don't know what to talk about when we meet during the Chinese New Year"

I can really relate to her feelings.

Like you're really glad that the family can come together as a whole once a year finally,

but the thing is,

what do you talk about?

"So do you have a boyfriend/girlfriend?

where are you studying?

what are you going to do after ITE?
(aka, what are you gonna do with your damn life.)

when are you getting married??"

always these few awkward questions,

and they may just come out with these questions to fill up the silence.

but how much do you really know them?

you may know each others family secrets,

and have to pretend you don't know and act normal.

"so how many of us are actually comfortable with our families.

many of us are closer to our friends and colleagues than any of our cousins."

my family members are nice,

don't get me wrong.

they are always ready to help.

but it always gets awkward because you're at a loss of what to say when you meet.

"Still - and this is a big still - we do it, year after year,

not because we really like it,

but because this is what families do.

Because, in the end,

blood is really thicker than water.

I can criticise my relatives and they me,

but woe betide strangers who do it -

and that is perhaps what links us cousins,

aunts and uncles together,

forever.

Have a happy Chinese New Year."

I'm just glad that I'm finally not alone when I feel like that about my family.

Teddy Geiger - For You I Will

A couple of pictures taken in SC yesterday morning.


during morning briefing..



hmm.. it felt so weird taking pictures in SC,
like why would of all people,
me.
be the one taking pictures?

but i know that i'll really miss little moments like this,

or maybe it's really time for me to break out of my shell in SC?
oh well.





the present and upcoming excos!



and an extra.



HAHA.

--

you may be wondering why i'm making this graduation thing such a big deal.

well.

I've been through too many departions.

and have regretted a few for not cherishing them enough.

it's not just the departing,

it's the little moments everyday.

and I don't want to make such a mistake again.

I want to cherish every moment I can.

It's the most I can make out of my memories.

--





HAHA.

like what they say,
a picture speaks a thousand words.

so i prefer to let these pictures retain their natural state.





do you understand the little moments i cherish so much now?

Last Friday morning,

on the way to school for SC.

I knew that I'd really miss the school when I graduate,

and took a couple of pictures.

I'd really miss walking here every morning.

--

We went to a mini-concert organised by Elaine and friends at Kovan on Friday night.

The pictures are kinda blur due to the lightings.

Musical Paradise at Kovan CC.

The singer of "I Not Stupid 1" theme song.
He's only 21, and has already registered his marriage.



makes you wanna get married soon too.
like if you marry young,
and give birth earlier,

you'd still have energy to enjoy life when your kids grow up.

hmm.. I guess it depends on individuals.

the 2nd performance of the night,



very cool band.

--

then it was off to slack..



That's Poh Li and Mr. Ronald McDonald.

They've made such great friends within a short while.

journey home..



me, jolyn, and elaine in the reflection of the glass ahead.
jun hong and poh li in front.

it has been really really fast.

2 years.. gone.

us in our red-white-red-white form..

a very hilarious us at MOS Burger. (still with kenrick then.)




and these was all before I became a councillor.

and thinking back,

a lot has happened over the past 2 years.

and these stuff has brought ISF much closer together.

will hope to take a whole lot of photos at Graduation Night on Feb 9.

Glam ourselves up on that day!

It has been a great 2 years spent with ISF.

Wishing the classmates all the best after graduation.
