[Edit (February 23, 2008 / 1.25am)] Jesus, sometimes I really hate people. There was NO need, whatsoever, to be rude and she was. -_- The world, especially the younger generation, honestly needs more patience. [/Edit]
So… I have been very busy these past few weeks! I will categorise them so you don’t have to comment on the whole post, just pick one that you like.
Open House
College got even busier, and to top that off, I joined in as a Student Ambassador for NAFA Open House 2008 (right at the bottom of the page) which happened from January 31st to February 2nd. Though it was tiring, it was really fun!
Of course, we took loads of pictures. xD Those are only on the last day, though.
Lent
This year, I decided to join in with giving up something for Lent together with Reyrey.
I chose chocolates and crisps. However, as it was around the Chinese New Year period, and my mum baked chocolate chip cookies, I ended up eating one and realised after that I shouldn’t have. But since I already did, I decided to just stick with the crisps one.
Chinese New Year
Another busy time! On the eve, after I came back from college, I spring cleaned my table, lol. It wasn’t fun. D: But I did it anyway. Then there was the traditional reunion dinner, which I always look forward to because there’s always good stuff, haha. My dad’s awesomely good roasted chicken, abalone, prawn, fish, vegetables… just an overall delicious spread. ![]()
On the first day on Chinese New Year, we go visit the eldest of the family first, and that would be my maternal grandmother so we usually spend the whole first day there. ^^ Second day, we met my paternal relatives for dinner and spent the third day at home since we had no plans. On the forth, we visited my paternal grandmother’s sister with my paternal relatives. ![]()
After which, I went out with my cousins.
It was nice, because I hardly ever get to see them in a year.
After which, I was told that my younger cousin reads my blogs. And told one of the cousins that I was out with, about me breaking up with Will. I mean, honestly. What the fuck? It’s not that I’m saying she can’t read it, she can, but what is her problem? She doesn’t have the right to tell others, I do. It’s my life, and my decisions! Jesus! ><
On the brighter side though, I got quite a good sum of money this year.
S$390 in red packets, haha.
Love Is The Movement Day
This is on 13th February of every year, a day where we all write the word “love” on our arms in support of To Write Love On Her Arms. TWLOHA is an organisation, a work in progress, for broken people, so that they may find love. It is around this period of time where suicide rates are the highest. I cannot explain this well enough, so you should watch this to get a much better idea of what TWLOHA is really about. If you already knew of TWLOHA, did you write love on your arms on that day?
Valentine’s Day
For me, I had a rather crap Valentine’s Day. It was not because I was lonely, it wasn’t because I have a boyfriend in the UK, half the world away from me. It was because my friends had their SO with them, while I was alone. And to top things off, they always joke about it, even when it’s not Valentine’s Day. It really hurts and upsets me, but I don’t know how to tell them to stop. ![]()
However, today, I received a package from the love!
It consisted of a Valentine’s Day card and a The Used messenger bag. That pretty much made up for the crappy day. :p Though, I’m not thrilled that he spent money on me. ><
Final Year Project
I am completely dead for this one. ._. My progress is so bad, I’m about to cry! >< I’m really really stressed up as well. There’s just so little time left till assessments next Tuesday and I really haven’t gotten a lot done.
I’m not planning on sleeping tonight, in hopes of doing as much as I can so wish me luck. :p
Woah, just seeing how much you have written here makes me feel overloaded with works. lol. That’s really sad your boyfriend’s in UK. I don’t know what would it be like if mine was in another country. But you know, I admire people having long distance relationship. They really do have the patience and trust. Really nice.
