I'm on the banner for NYP's Open House!! Hahahahah.
Too bad I hate that picture. I look so fat and tired and bored out of my wits. Gross! When I first saw it, I felt like body-slamming the banner-thinggy and just tackling it to the ground so that I can tear the banner to pieces.
Though I think Caberline looks really good here. (She's the one that's holding the mouse) So photogenic... *jealous* hahaha.

This is so damn funny. If you geddit that is. :D


Btw, Twilight is replaced by Yoona. Preewwttyy Yoona!

Zhnged my Iphone! Happy happy happy...... I had always wanted to do this, but when I looked at my retired chapalang phone(in the past), I gave up hope.
So now, brand new phone, brand new things I can do to customise it! :DD

Took me a long long to complete it ya'noe, cos the swarovski crystals needed to be pasted on piece by piece. I almost gave up halfway. In the end, I just threw the rest of the swarovski crystals into one box cos I was so pissed off and went out to buy fake crystals. The ones that alr have glue on them and all I have to do is cut and paste. Oh my goodness me, it was so much faster leh! Next time I'll just buy the fake crystals and put them on. So much faster..... Swarovski crystals really waste my time. And heartpain somemore if they were to drop off.


Anyway, can you guess which crystals are real swarovski and which are fake? :D Bet you can't! (Cos my webcam picture quality sucks so you can't see which is shinier. Muahahaha...)

The first day of a new year, the first day of 2010.
I didn't feel any excitement nor sadness counting down to 2010. It was just like another day for me. Well, I think I did feel/am feeling a tinge of sadness coming into this new year because I'm 19 now. GAWD. I wanted to be forever 17... And now, I'm 19. I betcha I'll hate 2011 to come cos then my age will be starting with the number 2! HOW OLDDDDDDDDDDDDD.....

The countdown yesterday at Cafe Iguna very much surprised me because I didn't expect it to come so soon. We hardly reached Cafe Iguna, downed a shot of tequila, headed to the dance floor, and BAM! the countdown started. WOW~ It was extremely fast. And after everyone shouted 1!, and HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!, we got bombared with foam sprays and glitter-sprays, and I was like OMG NOOOOO GET ME OUT OF HERE!!!! NOT MY HAIR YOU ASSES!!! hahaha. What a way to start 2010 eh. XP


So anyway, I had a nice time with the netballers. Great to see those who went overseas and didn't come to our last gathering. (: Though once again our team wasn't complete cos Zheng was in Thailand.

To sum up my 2009,

Studies
Didn't do as well as I wanted in my studies in the first half of the year. However, I realised that I'm more of a hands-on and "story-telling" kind of person, so I do better when I am given something to do. Got top in class for the first time since I-can't-rmb-when in the later part of the year. The feeling was simply amazing.

Friends
Made some new friends whom I can clique with really well. Lost some old friends also but its ok because they weren't really friends to begin with, more like acquaintances, and I sometimes felt very awkward talking to them or mixing with them. Retained friendships with my secondary school Netball mates, 6 years of friendship and this year is the 7th year. Got closer with Mayo too, my ultimate best friend in the entire world.

Legal
My 18th and legal birthday came in 2009, and I got to do things and go places which I couldn't do/go to before this. For example, driving. I love being able to drive. And teaching piano. I love playing the piano. Got my first-ever paycheck this year and boy was I overly-happy.

Family
Got to understand and love my parents more because of the excessive amt of books I've read, I learnt how parents react when their child does smt, so I know how to react and appreciate all the things that they've done for me.

Boyfriend
Maintained my relationship with Wei Liang, 1 yr 6mths and counting, and learnt how to overcome difficulties. Got to be overly-pampered and spoilt too. :D A relationship is not always smooth-sailing and that's what every couple will have to acknowledge. Had one of the best times of my life together with him. (:

Life
Realised and understood how blessed I am to come from a well-off family. I saw how so many other families do not even have half of what I have, and I feel so grateful to what God has given me. I also realised that I am actually really sheltered by my parents, as before my music job, they've never allowed me to work cos they told me they can provide for me so there's no need for me to go out to work. I thought what they told me was quite normal to everyone at first, until later on when I realised that how untrue it was, that the sentence only applied to me. I will never ever take anything I have for granted now.

God
The only thing I regret, was straying away from God this year. My resolution for 2010, is that I will grow closer to him. I promise.


I grew up a lot this year, from a teenager to an adult. I realised that all the good and bad stuff that I've went through my whole life, it has made me who I am today, and I will never change them if I ever have the chance to.
Gosh. I can't believe I wrote such a sappy and long post. But I guess its kinda necessary? Haha.

Cousin's place on the 24th of December

Christmas on the 25th @ my place

Feast fit for a king.




Fresh from the oven. HAHA nah jk. But its only my 2nd time seeing him, so ya. Still quite fresh for me. LD








***
Catching-up with Mayo on the 26th

First time trying Marche, believe it or not. Always wanted to try it but didn't have the chance to.
After going in and experiencing the food and ambience, I've gotta say I'm thoroughly amazed the amt they spent on decor, the way they display their food, and the taste of their food. Soooo cosy, appetizing, delicious, etc etc. I can just stay in there forever. Hahaha.
The only thing I didn't like was the music they were playing over their speakers. They kept on playing music with girls screaming nonsensical words. OMG. Damn irritating. Lol.








Gusttimo's at Ion again. Can't help going back to this ice-cream place over and over again. Their ice-cream is just soooo darn good. :D


So as you can see, I've been eating non-stop for 3 straight days. Terrible... but I don't care. I alr said I'm gonna eat all I want these few days. Its been a long time since I let myself eat whatever I am so I'm gonna make the most out of this opportunity. HEHE.


Ftt TMR!! Really really really fingers-crossed hope I pass! I nv studied my book at all.... XP

OMG I AM SO HAPPY!!!!!!
After many many hours of coding and re-coding, learning and re-learning html codes googled online, finding pictures and editing them, I FINALLY DID IT!!!
YESSAR!!! My most most most difficult html coding ever! I took like what, 2 days to do this?? I even sacrificed my sleep cos I cannot leave a project like this undone.
HAHAHA OMG I AM SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO HAPPYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The thing that I'm most proud of is that I managed to retain my icons. Imagine transferring the codes from one page code to another, NOT AN EASY TASK AT ALL. I almost GAVE UP while doing it cos it just simply WOULD NOT APPEAR. But see now look what I got after the hours spent. SUCCESS! TEE HEE HEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE.......

LOL I AM SO HAPPY THAT I CAN PRACTICALLY SCREAMMMMMMM FOR JOY RIGHT NOW I TELL YOU!!!!


On a calmer note, I will blog about my driving lessons, and christmas parties, and etc etc when I'm done sleeping/resting/slacking. Html-coding is so damn tiring.... And it strains my eyes too. BUT IT IS WORTH IT!! MUAHAHAHHAHA!!!! TEBANGGGGGGGGGGGGGG!!!!!!!!

Just realised that it's been so long since I last blogged. Haha. So anyway, Christmas was awesome!! I'm so sad that it's over alr :( so many gatherings, so much talking laughing etc, and the food! Gosh the food! I tell ya, I'm so gonna get fat cos of the food. So much to eat, so much meat, so rich, omg..... But I'm still gonna eat cos it's CHRISTMAS FOOD leh!! Only can have once every year! So I'm just gonna eat till my heart's content until the end of this year, and on 1st January 2010, I'll start my dieting. Full speed dieting. Hahaha.

I'm still in the Christmas mood.............. Oh yea! And I've got lots of pictures to post also, but I'm using my phone to blog now so I can't upload them. (either I can't or I dunno how to HAHA.I'm really a tech noob.) lots of pictures of food ESP! :D Ill post it up the next time I use my laptop :)

I feel that my laptop is a white elephant now. You know? Cos I have this iPhone which can do practically everything, I'm just leaving my laptop there to rot. Now the only time I switch on my laptop is to upload pictures. Haha waste money on laptop right? Lol.
