So, everyone's going ga-ga over this new year with the countdowns and everything. Of course, there are those who are unhappy over getting older. I'm not left out in that, 2009 will be my last "teen" year before i hit the big 2. Rather than dragging the fact of growing one year older, i'd look at it that God has given me yet another year, and that should be something to look forward to. Also, i'm hoping that it would not be my last "teen" year, but my first "thin" year. Get it get it?
2008 has passed by so quick, just like every other new year, when you look back at the previous. Many things have happened in so many ways. Just off my head, school's been good, church has been great, friends made, friends drifted, and of course, those that still remain close and i formed a band. It's hard to remember all the great times, but 2008 has surely been an experience.
Here's to 2009, please be my friend, and we'll make it good together.

Eunice
January marks the birth of so many people with the never ending birthdays that slowly creep into your wallet without warning. In any case, Eunice turned 21 on the 2nd of Jan, big number indeed. hahaha. I guess the fact hasn't quite sunk in yet but you can choose to leave the house (thank God it's a choice), be independent, watch R21 shows, enter even more clubs (where you probably would order a heineken and give it to someone else) , play 21 (geddit geddit) and so many other things. Whatever you do, i pray you continue to stay the smiley, bubbly and cheery person you are. It's always fun talking to you, laughing away at stupid things and of course, someone i can talk to about the less laughable things as well. You're 21, don't play play. Cheers to your 21st, ah lian Eunice! Shen Re Kuai Le. (=
Cheers!!
Last night, a bunch of us church people flew over to room full of blues to celebrate Eunice's birthday, and send Lynette off back to Aussie. Shall post the pictures up soon (I realise i have a million to post up). Timbre was too crowded and i'm glad we didn't head there. Somehow, room full of blues feels homey to me. Great music, great company, great drinks, some great food, will equal to a great time. Surprisingly, it was Gilbert's (the lead man at the pub) birthday too. Supper after to fill our stomach. Everything was great, except for the fact that i slept at 4am, and got up at insane 7am today. boooo.
But i'm glad i did wake up, for worship retreat. So much has been learnt, but more than that, the whole program has caused the worship team as a whole to be excited and motivated to see something happen. What more could one ask for?
It's about time i go off to la la land and catch up on the sleep that i have been missing out on. The week ahead probably wouldn't grant the much wanted hours since project deadlines are like less than 2 weeks away. The lecturer mentioned that students don't usually do too well this sem. I think i'm starting to understand why...
