So, 2011 has gone and 2012 has come. Big deal. lol.

毕业就是失业，这句话中肯啊….

2011 was an extremely busy and fulfilling year. I hope 2012 wouldn’t be too bad either… well at least I hope the current situation won’t last for too long.

New year eve of 2012 was spent in ky's house.
Here’s a pic of us 5Sc1 girls … with a super belated birthday cake lol.

Didn't post other pics with the guys la. Posted this one 'cause we looked nicely harmonious in coral color.... well except the one in doraemon blue who looked as if she's gasping for air hahaha...

Carmen - one who never sit still and pose like a normal person for a picture.

Then, a family picture!
Super rare for my entire family to be in one picture.
I don’t think we have more than 5 of these kinda photos throughout my entire life.

It was cny eve, yet we were all coincidentally in shades of black and white...

Celebrated CNY in Genting this year.

There was 15 mins long of fireworks.
so beautiful... lit up the entire night sky
yet each disappeared just as soon as it appeared in the night sky...
huge crowd was gathering outdoor watching in delight


我偷偷地许了愿。
不管能不能成真，抱着希望总比抱着空气好
lol


lalala...

And I trust that it’s been a while since we last posted a pic of both co-owners of this blog. Although judging from the rate we blog it’s more like 70: 30 instead of 50: 50. =.=”



Edmund Yee, who comes back once a year from New Zealand!

Hope u don't suffer too much and at least enjoy a little of your final year la.
After this no more full time student liao.

One of the things I miss most of being a student is... enjoying student discounts! Which I'm no longer entitled to anymore. T.T

Ok la that’s all bai.

p/s: Now I’m so freaking bored I talk to Mimi and wonder why it doesn’t react as fast as to my liking.

u sick d ar Mimi?

This Christmas Morning...

I spent it reminiscing memories of snowy white

of amazing views I have previously only seen in postcards and photos

recalling the feel of chilly wind against my cheeks

the blinding sunlight reflected on snow

the feeling of inner peace while gazing down at the world
from 10000 feet height

the elated child in me jumping in joy inside my heart while playing with snow
despite being chilled to having blue lips

Next time
I shall build a cuter snowman than this!
(haha...this is not ours)

Everyone, have a merry Christmas
and a happy new year!! ^^

Graduated =D

17 December 2011

It was a bright morning.


Despite the big sun,
the sweaty foreheads,
the huge crowd of graduates and parents roaming the entire college ground
posing and scouting friends for pictures,


I couldn't help but feel elated.

YES we've finally graduated!!

Have always wanted to throw it like that.


Now that I've done that, next on my list would be to burn those notes that tortured me for years. Ah the satisfaction of just thinking bout it....

But I'm too environmental friendly and would probably ended up recycling them to the old newspaper man lol.

领悟

从以前就一直觉得自己的心理比同龄的朋友早熟，所以感觉上这几年在心境的方面都没有怎样变化和成长。但如果真要说一个不同之处的话，就是我更能体会：
放开，不强求。

要来的，挡也挡不住
要走的，挽也挽不回

（当然前提是在曾经努力过之后。要是都没尝试过就放弃，也太对不住自己了）

所以还是那句： 世事无常，珍惜此刻所拥有的。

人是善忘的

Humans are forgetful.

Just reached home on Wednesday night. Went to visit grandma straight from airport. People who change the most within a short time span are children and the elderly. Before I left for UK, she was suddenly looking a lot better. Now she has returned to looking thin and sullen.

But I thank God that all of my family members are okay while I’m gone.

It is kinda weird how things will just fall back into place when I reach home. Aside from the slight foreign feeling I had when I took my first step into the house, everything else just felt the same afterwards. I do the same things at the same spot, in the same sequence as I always had. I know 4 months aren’t that long a time to be away from home. Yet, it almost felt like I never left home.

If not for the fact that I am still jet-lagged and with tons of photos to arrange, I might forget that I’ve actually gone through those days:
stressful weekly presentations, weekend day trips, cooking and laundry, assignments, staring at the sky from my big window, preparing for finals, missing home, packing for trips (hate packing, but am now a pro in stuffing things into my luggage *wink*), be actually on trip in Europe and Scotland, relaxingly strolling in London, and looking forward to going home.

It was a busy but well-spent four months. Many first-time experiences and a lot of memories created.

But now, I’m home. =)

Got tons of photos to go through… will upload them soon before the memories fade. This way, I can look back and recall with better clarity in future.

Kimyen, thank you for accompanying me for an entire month throughout our trips.
Couldn’t ask for a better roommate than your best friend for almost 10 years. =)
