had a blast for my Xmas 2009
wat about urs?

weeks ago.... Wendy suggested to gv a Xmas surprise for dad and mum.....
d plan goes like....
" Wendy asking dad and mum go to spore spend d Xmas with her..... while Tina and me lied to them that we gonna spend our Xmas in msia instead... (to make them feel sad for not being able to celeb d fest together-gether... hehe^^ ) ; HOWEVER... d truth is.... we will take flight to spore on Xmas day itself... and appear as the Xmas gift~ Surprise!!!! "

everything is well-planned...
altho Tina thought tat our secret trip has been revealed b4 we took d flight....
tee-hee... luckily it was jz sum communication error....
d secret is nicely-sealed.... =)

kinda regret for not taking dwn their reaction when they saw us appear in front of them.....
especially when mama shed tears of joy....
^^

so here are sum of d photos.......

had a mini-gift-exchanging-session...
which i felt so guilty for not preparing any gift.....
perhaps.. appearing at there was already d best gift for dad and mum? ^^
sorry Wendy, Tina, Timbo~

we went orchard~
we had people-jam instead of traffic-jam...

and i'm lucky enuf to meet the mediacorp artist - Dai Yang Tian...
he's really good-looking!

**those who watched Little Nyonya.. shud noe him gua** =)

bek home.... was all stinky and oily...
had sum camwhore session with d Xmas hat and timbo!

d 1st time K-ing with dad and mum.......
K-lunch was indeed a great choice to get gila with them! wakkaka

hmmm.....
everything goes well except d superb-tiring-journey bek to msia....
took me 9 hrs to reach tina's hse...
anyway.... jz when my mood was kinda pulled dwn by d heavy traffic and d craziie thoughts of fyp....
i spotted RAINBOW when i was on d highway.... LOL

TO MY GOLFBALLS

TO MY GOLFBALLS
By Anna Karenina

When things in your life seem almost too much to handle,
when 24 Hours in a day is not enough,
remember the mayonnaise jar and 2 cups of coffee.

A professor stood before his philosophy class and had some items in front of him.

When the class began, wordlessly, he picked up a very large and empty mayonnaise jar and proceeded to fill it with golf balls.

He then asked the students, if the jar was full.
They agreed that it was.

The professor then picked up a box of pebbles and poured them into the jar. He shook the jar lightly. The pebbles rolled into the open areas between the golf balls.

He then asked the students again if the jar was full. They agreed it was.

The professor next picked up a box of sand and poured it into the jar. Of course, the sand filled up everything else. He asked once more if the jar was full. The students responded with a unanimous 'yes.'

The professor then produced two cups of coffee from under the table and poured the entire contents into the jar, effectively filling the empty space between the sand.
The students laughed.

"Now," said the professor, as the laughter subsided,
"I want you to recognize that this jar represents your life."

The golf balls are the important things - God, family, children, health, friends, and favorite passions – Things that if everything else was lost and only they remained, your life would still be full.

The pebbles are the other things that matter like your job, house, and car.

The sand is everything else - literally the small stuff.

"If you put the sand into the jar first," he continued,
"there is no room for the pebbles or the golf balls. The same goes for life."

If you spend all your time and energy on the small stuff, you will never have room for the things that are important to you.

So...

Pay attention to the things that are critical to your happiness.
Spend time with your family.
Play With your children.
Take time to get medical checkups.
Take your partner out to dinner.

"Take care of the golf balls first - the things that really matter. Set your priorities. The rest is just sand."

One of the students raised her hand and inquired what the coffee represented. The professor smiled.

"I'm glad you asked. It just goes to show you that no matter how full your life may seem, there's always room for a couple of cups of coffee with a friend."

Share this with other "Golf Balls" in your life! :D

*********************************************************************
i've been in a terrible mood after d incident......

tis word has bcm my favourite shout-out these days...
especially during the lab session for FYP or during d meet up with Sir...

do watch carebears for d reference! LOL!

craziness strikes when lots of things nid to be done in a short period of time....
it shud b a fruitful sem..... **i hope**
anyway.. i'm glad that the random thought in the lab about these carebears did made my day SHINE!!
in a way that i did feel better instead of being so tensed up...
however, by shouting SHINE wont solve d problems practically.....
i stil hv a long way to strive hard... yet in a short time~

the Sakura class

it aint easy for me to multitask in tis sem....
anyhow, i've decided not to gv up tis class...

A letter from d baby sister

d recent big thing -FYP has drawn me out from my usual crazy social life....
it's been long since i last yumcha, last skate, last hangout, last pillow-talk, last sit up, etc....

altho i used to be home alone during my childhood....
but i did rmb cookies monster in sesame street....

i would nvr b exposed to these if my sis were not them :)
i would nvr b exposed to singers like BSB, mariah carey, take that, boyzone.. during such a young age... if my sis were not them :)

altho we had disagreements lots of time....
there were tears of both joy and pain...
which siblings don't have their share of pain?

lol

<< wasabi nuts >>

santa time!

as promise... sensei brought d prezzie for d group tat won d game last week....
there were still a lot of these wasabi nuts left...
thus she made another impromptu game for d rest of us......
n i got two of these small lil packets of "wasabi nuts"

attending the Japanese class was nvr a wrong decision made during this internship
altho i've been lamenting alot on d exhaustion i had suffered.....
"dragging my steps to d class weekly....
being d oldest student in it......
not being able to memorise the vocabulary.......
blablabla"
hehe~ a nice experience tho...

but it does remind me of my Japan trip a year back......
which i dint get prepared much for the trip.....
yet turned out to be a nice one cz of wendy's arrangements....
n reminds me of d tuition-life tat i used to hv when i was back in kindergarten till secondary school time.....
ya... i'm a tuition-freak.....
d life back then was so crazie... especially in Teacher Seah's tuition place....
owh.... i miss those moments......











time flies......
there goes d first level.....
still cn rmb vividly my reaction of looking at d paper that sensei drew a lot of circles on it.....
was thinking... "m i really tat bad?? all circles.... all wrong??"
haha!!!! d circles mean correct, my dear blur Queen....
then d flower drawn on d papers whenever no mistake was done.... XD
it shows hw silly i m....
being d "kindergarten student" of tis language class
tee-hee~

nxt Wednesday gonna be d last session for my Japanese class...
then Thursday will be my Japanese Examination~!
