review of the year and resolutions for the next :)

i can't believe the another year's coming to an end already *gasps*

seems like time is really flying and sometimes i wish i could slow it down 

don't want to grow up , don't want to step into the dog eat dog world 

most of all,  i still want to be my mommy's little girl :( 

feels like yesterday when i was stressing over my 21st venue and it's actually gonna take place tmr!

planning has been incredibly stressful but thank god for the help of my bestest pals !
i'm really so thankful to those who offered to help. so many of you :"( 

i can't wait to see everyone tomorrow :) i'm crossing my fingers that it will turn out good. 

moving on , 

i would conclude that 2011's undoubtedly a bliss for me :) 

this year, i've got to know my family , bestfriends and partner even better. 

i'm glad that my mother is able to do whatever she wants now.
nothing means much more to me than my mother's happiness ?
i don't give a shit about living in condominiums if my mother isn't happy. 

at least my bro and i will have a peace of mind whenever we head out now . 

such peace in the family , something that i will never ever ever take it for granted. 

always thankful to god's grace ; answering my prayers even though i'm not a giver. 

with that being said, i hope to have a closer relationship with god in the coming year :)

this coming february marks our fifth year together. 

we were only sixteen when we met and fell in love . this cute boy from ACSI ;)

all these years, he saw me through my struggles and frustrations. 

i dont know how he managed to handle all my fits but thank you kunkun ^^

it's funny how we stopped initiating petty breakups anymore. 

we used to quarrel every so often and start to doubt if we're really meant for each other. 

glad that all these nonsense has come to an end and cheers to another fulfilling year ahead. 

love you much kun . stop being jealous of sonia for once will you?! haha. 

this year, i got to meet my closest secondary school pals more often . 

we used to be very scattered and distant  because of our hectic lives.
so glad that we're all making the effort to come together. 

cheers to more quality time together next year. 

i would want to engage in more study sessions and brunch with them 

to be constantly updated of their lives and curse those bitches who makes life hell for them.

to the bestest bestest pal who's always there ..

to wipe my tears  ; ease my fears ; give me assurance.

whenever i run into troubles she's the first one to call.
always tell me bebe dont cry ; bebe things will be okay
count me in all her blessing and fun and treat me like a family. 

its really gross but i'm so touched that she took a tissue and wiped my vomit in korea.
though she's ten months younger but she always take care of me like a dajie :"(  

sonia oh ting wen , love you manymany <3<3<3<3

to bimby who stood by me through my darkest toughest and loneliest moment
those days in nan hua , i dont think i can get by without you.
& how you always on the bunsen burner for me for every experiment !
i think that's why i can't on the stove hahahaha. phobia of fire :(

my dearest , most spontaneous uniclique. 

it's a pity that we're all split into different timetables and mods. 

i'm missing those times when i will see the same familiar faces in every single lecture. 

well we may be physically distant,  i think we got to know one another better this year. 

like i know this choo yanning damn full of shit sometimes 

tease her once and she will shoot me ten times hahaha. 

the girl who blogged that she wants to punch me so badly when i act cute to her.

and the best part is , she asked me to read her blog "dedication"

but she's one of the faces i look forward to seeing every gathering :) 

well it's fun to hang out because there are so many of us ;

it's also hard to compromise because we are such a big clique. 

sorry to those who've felt left out during any point of time

those whom i've terrorized (heh) when i lost my cool 

i just hoped that everyone would be more active in group chats 

& make the extra effort to come for gatherings and be more intiative :) 

i'll always be the funny quirky entertainer for yall ! 

   

& my baby sister whom i've affectionately termed lyla :)

in case you're wondering LYLAS = love you like a sister. 

that's how the whole term came about. 

mom made me the youngest in the family but i've always wanted a sister

so god gave me a 11 month and 17 days younger sister to shower all my love 

one who silently takes in all shit when i'm in a foul mood 

one who reminds me to be not forgetful and stock up my stationery cos i keep losing them

one who listens to my nagging and hardly retaliates when i tease her

LOVE YOU VERY MUCH <3

i will always protect you my precious little sister.  

the very skinny darach. 

always fun to have her around during gatherings because we can tease the rest :P

thank you for being there all the time

PM me to ask if i was alright when emo tweets surface

you know you can always count on me

very happy that you do confide in me your troubles

<3 

& two of the dearest girls who suffered under my merciless teasings 

i hoped you love the univeral nickname i gave you both though 

count it a blessing alright ! it's much better than jessie's intended nickname

there are just way too many wonderful people in my life

i can't list everyone you but thank you for being part of my life :)

those whom i've once been very closed to and drifted

and those who recently entered my life. 

i've always been very short tempered , impatient and rash

that's why i dont think teaching is my calling . 

this year i have so many tuition assignments that i took a toll on my body

i always had to miss out gatherings or go off earlier because of tuitions

it made me very emo and sad to be left out of fun events but i have to do my job

i had to be responsible to the parents who paid me to teach. 

hence this year, i dropped a few kids and free up my schedule 

so cheers to many more gatherings next year pals :) 

really excited for the new year because there are so much to achieve. 

academically and spiritually :) more quality times with pals. 

have a good one yall! 

 this is undoubtedly the best christmas countdown thus far :) 

i've had so much fun with my girls and felt all the warmth and love that night . 

i wished i could spend it with kun as well but he had his annual family gathering

& speaking of which , i felt so bad that i skipped this year . 

then again, i think it's the best choice for both of us because he wont have to entertain me 

& i wont be bored to death or stone at one corner which defeats the purpose of a gathering :/

thank you to all the girls who make time down for the gathering. 

& special thanks to YANNINGBOBO <3<3 who offered her place and planned the countdown. 

yummy yet sinful chocolate indulgence :) 

what's a better way to start a post than posting pictures of the camwhore pro ?! 

& for the nth time, these are the lucky surviving pictures which weren't deleted

picture number one : taking picture of herself. 

picture number two : posing with a reese peanut chocolate cup?!

act yi ge rudolf the red nose ranger. 

picture number three : posing with fruit tree fresh apple juice BEST.

i think in our future gatherings she will pose with paper cups and spoons. 

picture number four ; posing with the ice cream pint ?! 

our unbeatable number one camwhore queen. 

we were playing games and she sat at a corner to camwhore by herself. 

i had to stand on a stool in order to join the tall gang :( 

we had pasta , seaweed chicken , nuggets , french fries  & garlic bread !

love fingerfood <3 though they do shit to my body. 

yanning begging to be my friend hahahaha :x 

& yup so i kindly accepted her friend request and took a picture with her

i think she's gonna charge at me on our next meeting 

" so rebe you think you damn big ah ? " somewhere along the lines. 

then it was the much awaited christmas exchange :) 

to be honest, this year's christmas exchange is so much better because.. 

each and everyone of us took the effort to look for a gift 

& each and everyone of us , were willing to pay for a good gift :) 

i wanted to give something better but had no time to do christmas shopping :(

i shall start my christmas shopping earlier in future. 

everyone posing with their christmas gifts :) 

 one of the bestest bestest bestest bestest girlfriend one could ever have  <3

love you very much lyla yang 

cheers to many more years of sisterhood .

while we took the picture , yenqin went like " can you feel my bulging tummy?"

super cute and random . 

rounds of monopoly deal and bridge 

it's a pity that only yann trace and i knew how to play bridge 

i've been dying to play bridge so we forced the rest to learn 

i have to admit that felimbo's a really hardworking student and showed keen interest in learning

however.. halfway through bridge , she asked me " this is flush right "

yann and i went nuts . i didnt know if i should laugh or cry . 

 mixed flavours from baskin robbins <3 

that made me missed korea a lot. 

 a warm group hug to end off the night . 

for happy moments should be shared and sad moments would be kept . 

those who mind dont matter but those who don't mind matter :) 

happy 20th birthday , yang yen qin :)

our dearest maknae turns twenty on 19th of december . 

we had a surprise birthday brunch at food for thought on the 18th 

everyone shifted plans to make it for her birthday . 

poor jess who had to rush off for a performance in the noon , came with her outfit and all 

& also felimbo , who rushed out without make up so she would be on time. 

love love love love love love love you girls !

true friends are those who would go the extra mile to make you smile :) 

i really enjoyed the brunch at food for thought . 

i've heard so much rave reviews about it and always wanted to try it. 

i'm so glad that we decided against potluck surprise at her place and had it here . 

i think the portion's really filling and pricing's much more reasonable as compared to wild honey. 

unfortunately , felimbo and jess had to wait quite a while before we were seated. 

i guessed it could be harder since we had 9 pax :( 

that's me with the birthday girl . 

felimbo , rach and shawn . 

feli seriously dont look like she's 3 years older than us 

 with the girls , minus jessie who left for her performance :( 

& shawn who came along because his dearest gf's off to bkk the next day. 

poor army boys. no freedom no sleep no hot water & no hair. 

& here's our last duo Rs hug before she left off with shawn 

poor hunn who's suffering from food poisoning in bangkok . 

wished i was there to give her a warm hug :( come back soon rach ! 

some of the quirky shots we took along the way in search of tau huey 

we couldn't find the beancurd but we ended up at this pastry shop which sells soya tarts. 

tried one and i think i should get them for my birthday bash next sunday. 

the thought of turning 21 makes my tummy churn :/ 

gonna be a year older and hopefully with age comes wisdom. 

caught in a massive downpour while we made our way to Ion Orchard :( 

just when you decided against bringing your umbrella , it rains. 

& when you bring it with you , it rains . 

surprisingly , i was the only one who brought my umbrella that day.

thank god for my mother who nagged me all day long :x 

anyway, the surprise wasn't 100% successful because the birthday girl reached earlier than some of us. 

i was a little disappointed but i think we've managed to pull it off well 

given the fact that we were rendered with half hearted support instead of full co-operation.

i think i could have done much better but it wasn't a total flop anyway.  

at least the birthday girl was happy ? cheers to more surprises ahead. 

off to meet my boyfriend for last minute christmas shopping next ! 

 outfit of the day 

i love you foo yongkun , please come home safely !
