Last Week

Ok, so it's confirmed. Will be leaving Singapore in exactly a week. It's gonna be a long way from home and yea, it's gonna be a pretty long period of time. It's not the first time I'm leaving home for extended periods of time, so yea, the excitement's not as overwhelming as my first time abroad myself. It's more of thinking about adapting to a new environment all over again. Haha. It really takes effort and yea, hope it goes smoothly. But at least it's Europe that I'm pretty familiar with. So it's not as scary. Haha.

Anyway, amid all the festivities and stuff, I found some time to meet my regular khakis for k and dinner before I fly off.


They're probably the easiest and most fun bunch of people to hang around with. Haha. =D

Chinese New Year '12

It's the time of the year again! A time to eat, visit, eat, visit, ... , eat visit. Not too much of the CNY buzz this year. I guess it's probably due to the shorter CNY holidays. Anyway, this CNY is really just about eating. Ate reunion dinner on Sunday. Visited most of relatives on Monday, which meant snacking (impossible amounts of CNY goodies) all the way. So much so that I sort of skipped breakfast and lunch all together. Haha. Great-grandpa's anniversary today. So coincidental coz my great grandpa passed away then. But it's good in the sense that everyone will remember and will have the time to gather together to pray and munch on good food. So it was family gathering as usual at my house. Home-cooked buffet for breakfast and lunch. Really remarkable effort by my mum and maid to whip up all the food for like 30 people.. and they're all damn AWESOMELY YUMMY! Bet I gained at least a pound or more from just that meal. Haha.

Anyway, food aside, today's the first time I got to see my nephew since he was born 2 months ago! DAMN CUTE OMG. Haha.


The innocence of a child. All he need to worry about is eating and sleeping. Damn envious of him. Haha. Oh another boy to the family. My entire generation were all boys, and it looks like the next one's gonna be all boys again. Haha.

Anyway more food coming up. Tomorrow's gonna be another home-cooked, buffet-styled family dinner with all my maternal relatives. After which, a short break, before more food on Saturday and Sunday! Looks like I have to exercise a lot harder once all the festivities are over. =P

New Year Resolutions.

I haven't really taught about them since eons ago. But recently, time was on my side, and I spent quite a bit of time thinking about this. Reflecting on my life thus far, there are definitely things that I want to change in my life. And I've sort of set certain goals that I hope I can achieve by the end of the year. Let's see how it goes from here. =D
