"Not that I have already
obtained all this,
or have already been
made perfect, but I press
on to take hold of that for
which Christ Jesus
took hold of me.
Brothers, I do not
consider myself yet
to have taken hold
of it. But one thing
I do: Forgetting what
is behind and straining
toward what is ahead,
I press on toward the
goal to win the prize
for which God has called
me heavenward in
Christ Jesus.

    happy lunar new year everyone :)

    ah, it's been quite bad so far, haha. mum's working so i have ta take over all the "new year" assignments from her.. make glutinous rice ball, prepare red packets, give out red packets (-__-).
    so tiring, boo.

    not a big fan of tradition, i tink that whoever made traditions must be really evil because everyone has to go according the the tradition because of fear of wat's gonna happen if they dont abide by it. ah.

    birthday celebration on 6day was great :D Thank you sharim a.k.a abracadabra very much for everything.


    and of course there are these goodbyes which are so hard to say...(which this month alone was full of)

    early feb: healthy cell
    thursday it was : mark, danielle and isaac and i couldnt send them off because of work... :(
    yesterday was : mr abracadabra. at least i could send him abit. :(
    in the future??

    boooog. :( wat a sad month..

    bruised badly these few days. MAYBE i should start sleeping more to be more alert :D

    broke my heels yesterday, thank you drain for trapping my heels.

    dont noe what's gonna happen tomoro; nobody's gonna be ard that day..

    evil Vs good.

    i need to let it out seriously. gonna pop.

    RAH.

    Blue. like. jazz.

    tired tired tired. a 9am to 6pm and 7pm to 10pm is quite tiring lol. yea, but nonetheless, work is great despite it being stressful, busy and confusing. did tonnes of embarrassing things lately in front of all the game studio ppl, very paisey. Like opening the door with tonnes of force.. and it never opened because i didnt press the door release button -..-

    the work ppl are great, there's this really pretty lady named jodie who's really nice, she offered me a very nice chicken pie today! crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside! and cheng yong always has things to eat and he always helps us when we have trouble with the network! and damien is just a nice guy and Jac taught me many things today and cherry taught me tonnes of things yesterday too! yea and chloe who's in charge of me has been very patient to my thousands of questions.. no choice, cos i'm doing accounting so i have to ask alot of questions, cant afford to screw up :)

    Lunch is always great. tammy and i would meet up and have our rendevous (however you spell it) every 1pm to 2pm. today we had to eat at a coffeeshop cos i have no more money :( 4 bucks for the next 2 days, 3 meals each day. :O lots of photos from just one meal. heh.

    the pretty macdonalds wall, we tried to pretend we were waiting for someone. HA!

    still waiting, why she havent come? many ppl were looking at us. -..- haha!

    Tuition yesterday with ame and audrey was nice. i hope i didnt bore you out ame.. yay jon and my best fren hansel joining us next week :D the more the merrier!(mehhh-rier) (mehh...) ..HEEHEE.
    i nearly killed kenneth during tuition today. HA HA :D "who killed kenny? " heehee. just joking . :D aud and i were too tired for tuition today :( lol.

    my hips are bruised due to the stooooopid ez link machines at the MRT station. the censors are so insensitive, how can the mini gates close on me when i am passing? RAH angry. you insensitive creatures!

    wedding banquet testing for 2nd bro tomoro! yea, good food :) without spring onions please :)

    BOBO! the army took you away! RAH. yay can see you tomoro! :D YAY YAY YAY!
