Cheers once again to YEARS of friendship!=D

Whee~~ Kcpps 6C (1999) gathering at Pasta de Waraku (Marina Sq)=D

SO~~~ many people turned up! *clapX3!* So excited to see so many familiar faces with a brand new look=)

We occupied a super LONG stretch of table there where we had a super nice meal and chat=)

The food is NICE! I ordered this cod roe with potato together with Kirsty=) It's actually baked rice topped with potato slices coated with loads of cheese! *SUPER DUPER CHEESY!*

Though it looks small, it's actually very filling=) Affordable too $13.80+ =)

Talked about silly things we did in pri sch and basically the usual "where are you now?" kind of updates=)

Went to Sky Terrace over at Esplanade as suggested by Yen Soon. Cool breeze over the top. Nice night scenery=) *Phototaking!*

Zhi Hong suggested having "self intro". *sounds so weird!* But it's kind of useful too, we lost touched since we graduated frm kcpps.

Everyone started with "after kuo chuan....." It's interesting to know that even though everyone went separate ways and each has our own fulfilling life, we still remember each other and make time for this gathering=) *heart-warming~~*

Some I have known for almost 13 years while some at least 9 years=) It's just amazing=) Guess at that time when we were in pri sch, we would no have thought we will still remain in contact after decade.

Let's have more 6C gathering! Yen Soon has already offered his house to play mahjong during CNY! *Im not playing but Im definitely going! Hello~~ Most of us are living SUPER near each other!=P* *hehX2 hope yensoon don't mind me introducing his gf, hui min, here=)*

ThanksX2 to Yen Soon for organizing this! ThanksX2 to Deanna for sending a group of us RIGHT to our house=)

I would love to see everyone again! Hopefully we can eventually gather back all the remaining missing sheeps=)

Finally~~~ Tumbletots!=D

Quited my job as part time trainer at Tumbletots super long ago~~ Been waiting for Uncle Yu Chi to mail us the photos we managed to take on our last day of work at Sin Ming Plaza on 18th Nov.
*Tots' physical play training ground. Our playground!=)*

By the way, we are being called "Uncle" and "Aunty" by the children there and we also called each other that way=D *It's not the auntie please!*

Had great fun over there each weekends playing with the tots (children) and among ourselves=)

*Uncle Lionel, Aunty Xue Mei and Uncle Yu Chi having our phototaking on the last day=)*

Learnt alotX2 about taking care of tots=) From asssisting them in their physical play professionally, learning to understand the tot language to communicating with the parents=) *Definitely rewarding=)*

Going to miss this special job and miss fellow uncles and aunties=) Other Tumbletots centres are not so accessible for me and it is tiring due to my packed timetable=S

Luckily I got to keep my Tumbletots shirt and red "aladdin" pants=)

*Singing rhymes! ClapX3~~ Guess I enjoyed the rhymes myself too!=D*

Many thanks to Jess, Fiona and fellow part timers I got to know there Uncle Yu Chi and Uncle Lionel=) Continue to brighten the tots' life=) *Uncle Yu Chi with his train whistle and our demo doll "Polly"!**Uncle Lionel still as focused at work as usual even when I pasted sticker on his forehead=P*

*Adrienne is a super duper cute and clever girl=)*

Aunty Xue Mei loves tots! =)

Cheers to YEARS of friendships=)

Whee~~~ CHAOSx2 gathering!=) *wan xin! You are missed!*

Joined them after my bursary award presentation=) Really glad that our 3 applications got through after much preparation=S *Forms, cpf statements, photocopyingX3!*

Bought tiramisu cake for deon’s bday surprise=) HappieX2 birthday lingli! Welcome to the 20’s!
As usual, we took SUPER alot of pics! Lots of flashes everywhere! Muahahaha… ThanksX2 to all the guys for helping us snapX2 here and there=)

*Lingli: Chaotic green!*

*Leng Leng: Chaotic blue!*

*Dawn: Chaotic purple!*

*Me: Chaotic pink!*

7 years=) Thanks girls for being part of the best memories in my life=) We see each other through years of changes, joy, laughters and tears=) I will never forget CHAOS as you all accompany me through my growing and maturing stages, and makes me what I am today=)

I still feel very fortunate to be part of this awesome group=) Sometimes, I still cant believe that you all accept and love me for who I am when I was just an average classmate of yours=) ThxX3!=D You all colour up my life, esp during our secondary school days=)

Till now, you girls always do the sweetest things=) ThxX3 for all the holiday/xmas gifts! I still owe you all! *oopsie!*

I wish I wish... I wish that CHAOS will remain together till many years to come=)

*"Full" CHAOS pic!=D*

PS: Must clarify! "Me: Chaotic pink!* was not meant to be bigger than the rest on purpose. Probably I increase the font size for "7 years" and I cnt seems to decrease the font size for the sentence before it=S *must be too chaotic alrd*

Learning a "new" sport!=)

Went for ifg netball practice (more appropriately TRAINING)

Only jasmine and 2 year 4 seniors turned up=( Actually thought I would just go home very soon without even feeling sweat out.

*2 balls 2 people (Jasmine & me)*
Thanks to the very pro seniors who have been in school team before, the practice was turned into techniques training!

Footwork, drills, pitter-patter, square, american tram, loop, straight pass etc....

Learnt TONS of new terms and managed to get a feel of the CORRECT techniques (after uncountable number of tries). Never thought playing netball needs SO~~~ much knowledge and skills!

AND Jasmine even got a group of basketball guys (frm china) to play match with us! It's definitely a superb way to train our stamina! *we even got their contacts so we can play with them (as training for us=P)*

Aching already~~~ Exercising does come with a price *and a blister that burst* Last time I got blister was during chaos dance pract *missing it actually*
*only felt the pain when I saw it=S*
Had exercise, toning up, lessons and lots of fun!=D Believe pract will be even more fun with everyone arnd=D

Looking forward to our next pract!=) SDE Netball team jiayou!=)

Thx fei po for helping me wash the dishes=) *You have just saved my poor aching legs=D*

Shoes, slippers and heels~~~

Shopping with Mummy & bro at AMK hub! Finally~~~ Holidays are the only time I get to spend more time going out with them=) *mummy & I like to share clothes=)*
Sis not napping this time. Busy in school *thurs is her formal-wear day muahahaha*=P

Wanted to buy a new hp pouch but ended up with clothes and acessories. *shakeX2 head*

But luckily cha tou Gary got me a pink hp pouch during our JMG Xmas gift exchange=) *Not that I don't like it, I just need to get a hard cover hp pouch for my sweaty palms=)*

Anyway, at least Im almost done with CNY clothes shopping=)

Highlight of the day: The slippers I was wearing gave way *grrrr~~* Always have trouble with footwear!

Ks knows it best! He already bought me 2 footwears on 2 occasions where my heels/shoes gave me blisters and caused me to walk in super awkward slow-mo=S

The slippers that was spoilt are the 1st footwear he bought *There must be a curse!*

Mummy couldnt imagine if I was shopping with Ks instead. He would be like "again~~". *Mummy thinks that Ks may think I purposely get him to buy me new shoes -_-*

Anyway, luckily my bro bought shoes and so I wore his super BIG slippers. *saved!* Don't really care how I looked just don't make me walk barefooted!

*actually my foot quite big also=P*

Hopefully, I can find more time with my family=) *CNY shopping next!=D*

Staying pink in health! =)

*after the jog*

Whee~~ Had my 1st jog of the year with special appearance of my brother muahahaha....

He NEVER jogs with us, always speeding here and there on his bike *lazy!* But he still can keep up with my speed and we sprint for the last 50m for fun=) He won still (he guy leh and npcc somemore=P)

By the time we went home, he just fell flat muahahaha...

It's a nice jog with the cool breeze and special guest=D *clapsX3!*

*Don't be fooled! My sis napped while we were jogging diligently=P*

Hope I can maintain my jogging regime: at least 3 times/week=) So I can indulge in more CNY goodies=)

Im starting to resume my daily crunchX2 regime whee~~ *may the tummy be gone muahahaha~~~* =D

Ushering in 2008! =)

YeapX3! New year comes new hope! Guess my sister has bn hearing this for don't know how many years alrd=P

I just love the feeling of a brand new start!=)

With so many lovely events with lovely companions to spend the last few days of 2007 together, it is just so NICE to usher in the year of 2008!=D *clapsX3!*

Release of year 2 sem 1 results
Yippie! Improvement! Finally~~ ByeX2 to C (Places, Environment & Society is just bad)! Muahaha... Though its just a mere improvement from 4.3 to 4.31 Im really contented that Im moving up=)

My sixth module actually helped me as I managed to get THE A=D *Simply love mircobes!*

Other than that, no A for my core module this sem *shake2 head!*

Got 2 A- and 3B+. Not exceptionally gd but still Im glad it didnt fall any lower than that. Meaning there's LOTS of room for improvementX3! =)

I heard alot of my PFM friends actually did quite well, meaning we are improving whee~ Im so happy for everyone! YippieX2!

Now I shall press him for my present combo! Muahahaha..

Room make-over for 老公公
Whee~~ Finally after waiting for my student leaders camp and DE club retreat to be over, we managed to make-over his room! This plan has been inspired by our trip to Ikea before my exams and it serves partially as my post exam motivation! I just love making over rooms! *Interior designer was one of the many childhood ambitions=P*

Although he did most of the moving and cleaning up (it's his room mah), Im still super proud of my 杰作=D Muahaha... The workflow and the space usage are so nicely arranged now=) *clapsX3 myself!* =P

N82

FINALLY~~~~ I got my new phone! Guess many will be happy for me too! *Been complaining since my pink panasonic hp spoilt=S*

5 MP camera phone for someone without (enough budget to get) a camera.

GPS for someone who cn drive and only drive to familiar places.

*Thumbs-upX3!*

Bn snapping the moment i got it=D 迫不及待！

The only (tinyX2) bad about it is that it has super bright flashes and red light for autofocus I guess. Meaning cannot take candid photos! Happy sis and happy ks=P

*he just woke up=P*

4 Faith gathering

Whee~~ Glenn initiated this get-together at Mr. Tan's house. Finally~~ Someone help me to organize it! ThanksX2 Glenn! Bn real busy during exam period=)

Council (mini) countdown gathering

Kwek, Ser, Shiwen, Shizhen, Lynette, Ks and me went steamboat at bugis and we practically swept the food the moment they came=P Too bad we cn only stay for 2hours if not we cn really stay on=)

Hungry Ks brought us to Swensens to satisfy his ice cream craving=) Giant earthquake & chocolate fondue! *yumX3!* He had his usual sundae all by himself *zhuX3!*

Then we took photos all the way as we made our way to esplanade for countdown fireworks=) *serene helped to take this photo, nice shot!=)*

This year no more on the bike and chanting "sorry, excuse me!" as we moved with the crowd=D But still miss the special bike experience with the council and especially miss those who cnt make it this time.

*We cycled to esplanade frm ECP to countdown to 2007!*

And this time, we were blocked by the trees AGAIN=S No more 3rd time next year please!

Still, the fireworks were beautiful and magical=) May all bad be gone with the smoke and may all good be shining as brightly as the fireworks=)

*1st few photos of 2008!*

Happy new year 2008! Embracing it step by step, day by day, moment by moment!

My style, my belief, my aim

To lead people, walk beside them … As for the best leaders, the people do not notice their existence. The next best, the people honor and praise. The next, the people fear; and the next, the people hate … When the best leader’s work is done the people say, ‘We did it ourselves!
Lao-Tsu

Read this from the positivity blog [ www.positivityblog.com]

It shares the same belief that I have as the "definition" of leadership, if there is really one.

Work with them, learn with them, share with them, grow with them and eventually the most satisfying moment will be succeed with them=)

So it does contradict the existence of a leader, but that's not important.=)

This process takes time, effort, commitment, trust and most importantly respect for each other. The results are not instant, hence I don't aim to see the results, I just hope to inspire and lead them onto the right path.

Each of us is powerful, it's just that the potential has yet to be fully discovered and maximized.

Affirmations are much needed from each other. It's a way of appreciation and valuing each other=)

It brightens up one's day too=)

Thanks to all those who have impacted me on my learning journey=) Im truly grately and you are all remembered and appreciated by me=)

I believe all of us is making a difference to the life of those around you with every interactions with them=) Keep it going, it will have definitely a great impact on them! Hence, do make it a positive impact! =D
