Oh yes. I HAVEN'T started working. To all who are wondering. And many people ARE actually wondering. I guess it's my fault for announcing to the whole world that I got an ice cream scooping job but REALLY everyone's asking me when I'm starting work and - I do not know! Because, the Haagen Dazs manager's boss seems to have lost my job application. So I re-applied and I'm still waiting for THE call. I am quite anxious about it 'cause I'm dying to start work so please don't make me even more worried ya? But yes I know you guys are just being concerned and can't wait to have some haagen dazs ice cream served by me. Haha. I SO need the money now due to overspending and wanting to spend MORE so hopefully the call will come soon!
Love, ja

I loved Narnia! I know some people didn't think it was that nice but I loved it :) I think xinyi did too. Xinyi and I went down to the driving centre today to register for driving lessons and met xian after her basic theory test! She passed! Congrats :D After much deliberation, the two of us decided we'd learn auto. 'Cause we decided the both of us are too lousy for manual and we'll fail the practical test. Inferred from our buggy driving experience. After what seemed like a very long while we finally reached town. Had a mini interview with huimin aka faith hee. But it was useless le 'cause our parents don't allow us to do that job. Sorry captain! After that we did crazy trying on of clothes in WH [especially me, eight pieces at a go :D] We suddenly found the clothes there very attractive. Haven't got anything yet though. Then it was time for narnia! We missed a little little bit of the first part but hope it was nothing important. The first scene made me tear already! The farewell of the kids n mum. Haha. But all in all I was quite into the movie all the while, not feeling bored at all. Amazed, amused and touched at various parts. So gonna buy/rent the book to read! Which reminds me, I haven't read any of my library books. Oh no. Most of the guys are going for NS within these few days! Feel quite excited for them actually although they are dreading it. If any of you are reading this, have fun in NS k! Heh and all the best jiayou and take care!! Neoprints from today and new year's eve!

6H's first gathering of the year and first ever potluck was successful! Successful such that there was enough food for everyone. We had fried bee hoon, honey baked chicken, fried rice, wuxiang, you tiao salad, rojak, giant pizza, fried rice, chee kuey, agar agar and chocolates!! Yums. But I forgot to take a picture of all the food! :( Here's the pizza though. :D
Huge! And yummy :)
Unfortunately it started drizzling and we all had a hard time opening up the huge umbrellas next to xian's pull and dragging of of them to where we were sitting. So we sat there crapping and eating til the rain really became to heavy. Went up to xian's house to play the gambling game! Haha it's a really funny game. All of us were given a chance to grab the tokens that were spread all over the ground while closing our eyes. So if you're lucky you'll get more money :D Then yichao was the one um, mixing?? the dice and we would all place our bets on three pieces of paper that had either BIG, SMALL, or different range of numbers. If you get what I mean. Kexin kept going broke and had to borrow from yichao the banker who charged very high interest. Hee. After that we played the four cards game. I didn't win at all :( Oh terence brought these funky chocolates that had alcohol in them! As in real, flowy, yucky alcohol!
The one I chose! Base on colour :D It tasted not-so-bad too!
Cheers =D
A few of them left earlier and just before zhanpei, chao, kexin and pwee left we started crazy photo taking AKA each of the girls took individual photos with each of the guys and one with all four guys. Haha 'cause they're going NS and shaving botak soon!
Me with the guys! Will miss them :( Salute!
----- Okay backtracking a little, I had a S14 gathering on the 30th! Had dinner at fish n co. We were supposed to meet at 6 but I think everyone only arrived at like 7.30+++! And I realised I didn't like fish n co's fish n chips :( I prefer the cheapo ones. Whoops dunno how to appreciate. After that we went holland v for a while then some of them came my house! I was actually feeling rather unenthu throughout the night but felt better at home. Haha. We watched coach carter and it was v nice! Just that I didn't manage to pay full attention 'cause of some distractions like patchy and all the coughing. After that we played abit of S-hole daidee and then the four card game! Haha we played it all the way til 5.40. I went to sleep after that so I dunno if they continued. lalals hope we'll have more s14 gatherings in future! Bleah I can't find the only photo I have of the S14 people at my house.

Happy new year! Another overdue entry again. I've been very lazy lately.
Oh! I think this blog is officially one year and a few days old! I remember listing down my new year resolutions when I first started this blog. Unlike karen, i almost never ever change my blog layout. And I'm still loving it! Hope it's not getting to boring for you guys though..
The beginning of a new year has left me feeling quite afraid. Afraid of losing my old friends, unsure of what's gonna happen to my life, and even scared of losing the me I once knew. I shouldn't though. I'll try my best to keep in touch with old friends, think about what I want to do for the next 7 months + in uni and prevent myself from changing, at least in the negative way. Kay, these shall be my new year resolutions.
2005, I think it passed quite quickly. But that's always how it seems when you look back isn't it. Looking back on the past year, I'm grateful that I got to know the touch ruggers and S14 classmates better :) Without them I think I'd still be very bitter about my life in NJ. 2005 wasn't all smiles and laughter though. Being pressured by teachers to drop a subject and refusing to was certainly quite difficult. Don't regret my decision though. Oh yes and how could 2005 be a totally happy year having to study for A's? 2005 is definitely the year I studied the hardest. [Pukes] Drifting away from a good friend was heartbreaking, but I'm relieved to say we've drifted back again :D The same thing that kept bothering me since 2004 has been tiring and depressing, I'm going to put an end to it very soon. I hope I can anyway. *Another resolution. Then we lost my granda on september 22nd. I can never forget the grief that surrounded the house that day, but most importantly I'll never forget my grandma. Still miss her a lot, especially when I go past her empty room, but I'll forever keep her in my heart.
Can't remember anything else significant that happened. But I hope 2006 will be a better year. Not just for me, but for everyone in the world. May everyone's dreams be fulfilled, may there be peace all over the world, may everyone live their lives to the fullest. Happy new year :)
