Thursday, January 1, 2009 Happy New Year! Let's welcome 2009 with open arms! =)

Ah~ I'm so gleeful now... A big thank you to mellylemon for translating and editing "The One" so diligently. Lou Shang and Lele's aunt are so compatible. lala~ Can't believe that I can get so happy over manga characters. Lolx. But I can't help it. ((><))

And yupx, despite all the economic downturn and retrenchment going on, let's hope that next year will be a better year. Though it may not neccessarily be better, since reality is often cruel. Being humans, we will still somehow grasp that strand of hope tightly.

Anyways, it's time for my birthay updates! Did I tell you that my birthday is on 27th December? =p Remember that important day okay? hehe. Let's see, the day before, on 26th Dec, I was out celebrating with Wenhui, Sing Huey and Fadz. Thanks for spending my birthday with me. And the present? I will update the photos on this blog later. Hehe.

Intially, we wanted to go bowling, but since the queue was so long, we decided against it considering that there were 26 people in front of us, waiting. So it was arcade instead at Ehub. Dang, I should have brought my nebo card & those coupons that came with it. I could get a $10 free play value had I brought the card.haha. Apparently my coordination of limbs sucks. I tried playing the "para-para", desperately trying to step on the arrows with my legs. Next up was the ball throwing from aiming at the screen to the hoops with basketball. Gosh, afterwards I got a muscle cramp the next day.

Did I mention the attire I was in? It was a formal wear since I had 2 interviews that day. Can you imagine a person wearing so formally playing in the arcade? I bet I attracted a lot of stares, but who cares? I so delightful now that I'm grinning as I'm typing this entry.Don't worry, I have been a good girl except on christmas when I tried some wine together with my cousins. =p Okay, so I'm ranting now.

Thank you all for the birthday wishes I received, especially the one in 5 different languages on my special day. ^^ I guess dictionary.com is an effective of learning a new language. I spent the day with Hui Li, Quan Heng and Jeremy and at night with my family. We were supposed to meet at 8am but the guys were late for one hour! Tsk tsk. But it gave me some private time for gossiping(=p) with Hui Li so it didn't feel like an hour. When the guys finally turned up, we hopped on bus 89 and off to Changi Beach. The morning breeze is not as fantastic as the night one. I really wanted to go there in the evening though, but since "Someone" had to work, it can't be helped. =( Like excited kids, we tackled the swing first before playing the freezebie. Argh, it's tough to control the direction of the freezebie. Afterwards, it was a bus ride to Simei followed by an Mrt train ride all the way to City Hall to the arcade again. There, we got to watch "someone" para-para and apprently he enjoyed it a lot. ;) Lunch was at New York. The serving size was relatively big and we had free cotton candy that day! I'll upload the pictures later on.

So basically, that would conclude the days I had so far. It's nearly 2, so I better turn in soon... GooD nIgHt!
