Overjoyed!!! No Words Can Describe 。。。

I'm so so happy!!! Totally Overjoyed!!! No words can describe the feeling I'm feeling right now... the moment i log onto studentlink to check my results... upon seeing the screen... I burst out crying!!! I Passed every single module that i took!!! I have created the Milestone which i wanted to for this semester!!! This is the First semester in NTU that i did not 'bao' any modules... To many others, this may not be sthg at all... but to me... who was super demoralised over the past semesters... this is really sthg Special for me... it is the Best Christmas Present for me this yr...=) I will continue to work hard n keep this gd work up... it's really sthg very encouraging for me... felt so blessed... Thank You God for watching over me... =) I will be looking forward upon receiving the email from OPA about my attachment... Hope I will get a gd company where I can learn new skills there... also with nice colleagues over there... Praying hard... *smilez*

Finally, I got to watch the movie - "Pride & Prejudice"! Just nw, Wanchew n me watched it at GV Tampines as it's the only GV cinema which has the show at 7pm... coz both of us are working so can only watched it in the night... plus wkday it's cheaper... so we didn't want to watch it on a wkend...=p The show is Great!! *thumbs up =p* It's my all time favourite classic novel by Jane Austen... n it was my sec 2 literature text... =) Love literature for the whole of my life... my passion for literature will never ever die off... till the day my heart stops beating...=) Love the beautiful language used to epit the scenery, the characters of different societies at different times... the stories give me insights of the behaviour, thinking, practices, values of the people at that time... it's so interesting and set me thinking... Literature is such a delicate piece of art...*smilez*

Going to slp le.. tml still got to work...=p *will be smiling in my sleep...=)*

Hall 12 Seniors Xmas Dinner =)

" Strength in Unity, Harmony in Diversity" - Hall 12 motto =)

It has been quite long time since the last gathering with my hall 12 frens - Martin, Weixiong, Jingwen, Willy, Hweemin, Tzefong, Kangwei, Clemence, TeckTien, Junqiang, Eddie, Richard, ZhiKhai, Yanling n Me... yesterday, we had a xmas dinner at esplanade Thai Express... Tried another dish... stick noodles with mushrm n tofu in chicken broth... n had the sweet glutinious rice with coconut milk n mango!!! yummy!! heheh =p we had a gift exchange session too... i got Harrods chocolate nut batons... nice!! Love chocolate!! *winkz* n Yanz got the Oceanus Giftset that i bought from BodyShop...=p After dinner, we walked down to boat quay area to look for a place to chill out...n we chose coffee bean...=) Had a great time chatting n drinking my caffe mocha... with interesting topics which varies from general knowledge to issues to thoughts of people... Love to be involved in such conversations... which will set me thinking n learning...=) Had a Great time last night...*smilez*

Initially, some of them suggested to go for midnight sale which will be held at suntec n citylink... the main concern it's mainly the transport to go hm... yanz n me called hm to ask for permission... as long as it's safe n have company to go hm, my mum it's okie... well... our fren will be able to drive us hm but i'm really not gian abt the midnight sale... coz such sales will bound to attract loads of pple... but it's so difficult to fish out sthg to buy as it will be super crowded... so intend to give it a miss... though there may be really gd bargains out there... Personally, i prefer those sales that are not announced to the whole world kind... those i happen to come across while shopping n got gd deals one... as long as it suits me n it's a gd deal... I'm already very happy!! Don't have to go fight with others during those midnight sales with loads of pple kind... Just dun like that kind of feeling to 'fight' with others... In the end... none of us gals went for the midnight sale... n it's a few of the guys who went...heheh =p

Looking forward to my council xmas dinner on the 30th... *santa claus is coming to town! =p*

"Precious Moments" Flashback 。。。

Met up with my JC classmates after work for dinner... it's been near to half a yr since we last met up... Today, it's a mini gathering with only 6 of us - Yanshan, Xiuwen, Karen, Shineng, Duanneng n me... Had our dinner at Manhattan Fish Market at Plaza Singapura... The other 3 gals suggested it as they want to try the food in there... and since all of us have not tried before... we decided to have this for dinner... The food served here is very much like those served in Fish n Co... specialising in American/Mediterranean western style seafood... =p Duanneng n me ordered Seafood platter for 2 to share... intending to make comparison with the one served at fish n co... *grinz* The place is quite noisy actually as there are many pple eating... maybe it's due to fri night ba... so it did not give me a cosy feeling at all...*minus pt for ambience... oops!* perhaps will be better on wkdays...=p As for the service there... hmm... about the same as fish n co.? can't really tell the difference... well... there's always rm for improvement... *winkz* As for the food... it's not bad too...各有千秋... just the way they cook it's slightly different... the oysters are fried ones... the rice dun haf raisins... different from fish n co... generally it's more of own personal preference ba... as to which one is nicer... I love the prawns here more than those at fish n co... heheh =p Conclusion... it's definitely worth trying... a different taste to the usual seafood platter at fish n co. and u can taste it for yourself...=)

Finished our dinner at around 8plus... n while enjoying our dinner... we suddenly remembered that the 9pm show will be showing the last episode tonight... n none of us will be recording it... hence, we thought of places which will have tv screening inside, so that we can catch the show! =p hahah so funny!! Didn't expect us to do that just for a show... hahah As a result, we walked to Meridien Foodcourt at somerset to catch the last episode...=) After the show, had a nice chit chat session catching up with one another...*smilez*

Time flies... it's so long ever since we graduated from JC... Recalled some memories in JC... be it taxing, stressful, rewarding, happy or sad... they are all Precious Moments in me... *smilez* Btw just now at PS, before we left for somerset... there's a Precious Moment Figure walking around heheh too bad we dun haf camera... if not can take a shot with it... that character walked past us n took initiative to shake hands with me... only shook hands with me!! heheh only me!! hahah *crazy gal* Time to go slp le... nitez! =)

Nearing to dinner time, as we looked through the directory to decide what to have for dinner... had a sudden crave for seafood platter for two when i saw the name "Fish n Co"... hence we went to Fish n Co. since both of us have not eaten that for quite some time le... =) Before we order that for dinner, we are wondering if we could finish the seafood platter or not *2 gals eating seafood platter for two...hmmz...* well... i was so gian n we went ahead with our order... At the end of our dinner, it's really shocking... we actually could finish the whole seafood platter in less than 45 mins!! n only left with some rice which we really couldnt stuff them into our tummy anymore le... super full... *bloated* Had a sumptuous dinner...yummy!! =)

You Are The Opposite of Machiavellian



You don't have a cynical, power hungry bone in your body.
Honest and kind, you believe being a good person is the most important thing.
While your upstanding morals should be admired, be careful!
You're at risk for being manipulated and toyed with.

How Machiavellian Are You?

You are thinker, organizer, peacekeeper, and leader all in one. You have a power to command attention and people listen to you. However, you are often so concerned about not hurting others' feelings that you don't tell them what they need to hear and this gets you both into trouble. But you always have loyal friends to help you out.
