So................. The Roos people are on a quest to unravel the mystery of Roosterice. Like, the what-on-earth-happened-along-the-way-why-is-their-name-so-weird?! mystery.
I er, wonder too. What-on-earth-happened-along-the-way-why-is-our-name-so-weird?!
Chin, Ling, Rah and I will be blogging our versions of what happened. Hee.
'Cept that Chinwen's post just disappeared. Lingxin is too lazy too type. Sarah and I can't really think at the moment.
The posts will come soon... Kinda. Keep a lookout; we'll be posting around the same time. (:
And they're probably going to be very different. (I mean, no one's English can be as bad as Chin's.)
Hee different standpoints. Like Chinwen will go, "SO CUUUUUUUUUTE RIGHT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" And mine will probably be like... "Lame."
Till then.

Four years. Part one.
This is my third attempt at this post. Reflections. Sorta.
Somehow the words just don't seem to come out right.
Anyways the past four years in Nanyang... I can almost say it's been the best time of my life. We've all grown tremendously, and the friends, teachers and people I've met along the way... Thank God for all of you.
I give up trying to type thematically/chronologically. Whatever comes to mind.
Seniors
I think seniors undoubtably play this almost-divine, important role beyond comprehensible imagination. Juniors look upon seniors with this supreme awe, because seniors are the coolest people ever. Sometimes we become very conscious when the seniors are around, because that teeny bit of you will want to impress your senior that teeny bit. Along corridors, seniors are given superiority-ness according to the colour of the rectangular tag on their uniform. Or maybe even by the colour of their once-white uniform. Haha!
Seniors have been very inspiring in my four years of Nanyang life. I will never, ever forget my PSL in Sec 1. Her name was Peishi... I think. (Hee except the name.) Sub-consciously, I think a part of myself tried to model after her when I became a PSL. She was a very loud and rah-rah person. Made funny jokes and tickled our class pink when we all laughed at her. She cheered Nanyang cheers loudly and made funny noises as she went about breaking that deathly-silent ice on every Sec 1 class' first day at school. I hope that somehow, somewhat, I've been able to inspire my PSL classes too. 106'07, 111'08, 113'09... Maybe someday they'll look back and laugh at their has-been PSL and remember me too :) So, thank you, Peishi (I think that's your name :D) for inspiring others to inspire others (:
(Reflections on PSL later...)
Being in a UG, seniors have an altogether different meaning. Kinda. I remember being terribly terrified of my CLs and ACLs. Especially when we were in Sec 1. Woah, it's that kind of terrified when you turn and walk down the other way when you see your seniors along the school corridor. I... am still terrified of them. Some. But seniors are still so cool at the end of the day, you'd secretly watch them from afar and think how cool they are, haha! And then you'd think how good they are at turfing and firelighting, and how you'll wanna be like that one day. Seniors will always be a topic to talk about among batchmates. They're just cool lah. 8) Heeeeeeeeeeeeee. It's quite sad 'cos some of them never do come back and visit anymore, though. ): It'll be nice if we can see them again. Only the memories linger on, almost vaguely.
Seniors have been, and will still be, some sort of figure for us to model after. We always looked at the seniors in awe and wondered why they could be adept with the ropes and spars, changkul, footdrill, firelighting... It's strange to think how we've, over the years, become that figure for our juniors. Perspectives have shifted over time too; things tend to be viewed very, very differently. Perhaps we've all matured. Perhaps circumstances have changed. Perhaps everything has changed. It's a rite of passage that we've all gone through, and they will go through in time to come. Sometimes I'll step into my senior-perspective and try to imagine, albeit in avail, how I was like then. It's weird.
As a junior, you'll always wish for some sort of attention or recognition from your seniors. A hint to show that they know. As a senior now, the truth is, we do know. And a lack of a public recognition or sorts simply does not equate to any neglection. At all. I remember I was quite sad in Sec 1 and 2, 'cos all my batchmates had the chance to take turns and take on I/C-ship of various things big and small, but I was kinda left out. I was like, "When is it ever going to be my turn? ): " It was quite weird. Truth is, seniors take into consideration all sorts of things. Taking over the company and making all sorts of decisions has taught our batch how to. Now I look back and reckon my seniors probably wanted to encourage the other people in my batch to step upfront and take on new challenges. They probably already saw me and decided that it was good to strengthen our batch as a whole. And it did. We all took turns to take initiative, when it came for volunteers and stuff. It's nice to grow as a batch and let different people take on different things at different time. What matters most is that I never stopped growing. Neither did my batchmates. We never did take a step back simply because our other batchmates took a step forward.
And that was the best form of recognition our seniors ever gave us.
To my junior(s), I hope you read and understand (: You will, as you grow. And all of you will grow.
Somehow, though, I think our batch has re-defined certain aspects as seniors. It's good and bad in a way. Greater good than bad, perhaps? Times are very different now and then, anyway. It's quite mind-blowing to think how much things have changed in a span of four years. When I was in Sec 1, heaven knows if my seniors ever had blogs. And back then, just 4 years ago, there was no Facebook. Friendster was still in rage. You see, the point here is that we never had this much access to our seniors' world. Juniors are reading my blog right now, they know when I'm sad, I'm high, I'm downright depressed, I'm freaking annoyed.. They know I can't do Math for nuts, I'm really just a silly nut at heart... You get the drift? Back then, the only impression we had of our CLs was the image they portrayed during CCA sessions. The strict, don't-mess-around, loud, fierce one. We never dared to venture much into their world. (Remember? I'd turn and walk the other way back down the corridor.) We only caught a few glances of our seniors' Graces photos (and were dang amazed). It's so different altogether now. Technology.
But I'd say it's quite nice. To have a platform to access and reach out to people you wouldn't in real life. Cyber networking, almost. We used to have to go to the Guide board and check the programme schedule every week, now we have our company blog, where we can tag and write nice stuff to encourage each other. And it sorta brings more life and a touch of vibrance. Which is totally cool. (: But sometimes limits are greyed. I honestly wish for more privacy on my blog, really. But because Blogger doesn't have the private posting function (as with private single posts in Livejournal and Wordpress) (or maybe it does but I don't know it exists), sometimes I end up not posting at all, 'cos it's just weird to have different groups of people reading some stuff. I wish I were more frank and upfront like Yanquan in blogging. I seriously admire her blogging spirit.
I think it all boils down to respect. As children, we need to be respectful of the adults/parents/teachers reading our blogs. As seniors, we need to be mindful of our juniors reading. As juniors, we need to be respectful of seniors who read. It's all a co-relation thing. Very complicated. But I'm totally cool with random people reading, my parents access my blog now and then too, and it's totally cool. The cyber world is open and anyone and everyone. I think it's good to be frank in a polite way. (:
Okay I get this feeling this post is very long already. Am typing in Blogger and I fail at estimating the length of my posts.
Off to bed. Hopefully my patience will last through my reflective mood. Hee (:
Adios.

title?
random thoughts have popped up by and by these few days. as in bloggable thoughts. they're mostly one-liners, though; am tempted to start a twitter!
so anyways it's the holidays!! life's been kinda bum-sy, 'cept for volunteering work at AWWA and at children's camp in church. i feel awfully out of touch with guides and this feeling is absolutely awful. ): no ATC to stress over, to feel nervous about, to prepare for, to rush for, to bubble over with excitement about, to look forward too.. hope the juniors are doing well! soak in every bit of the experience and learn as much as you can. when the going gets tough, I quote Tim Gunn, "Make it work." :)
on a sidenote, googled and found out that Irina's this season's winner for Project Runway. hmmm mixed feelings; she's reeeeeeally talented, but kinda proud and judgemental? ah well.
i heart american reality TV.
oh, ah! am getting hooked onto The Mentalist; it's mad exciting and cool and nice to watch aah :) (sorry for weird vocab.) Channel 5, Monday nights at 10pm! watch watch watch! am giving up on Flash Forward; waiting for the whole fiasco to end then google and find out what exactly happened. reckon it might be disappointing though. hmmm.
ok ending this soon.
need to make the most out of this holiday!! doubt a break like this will come by soon once school starts and things get chugging along. i still feel tired even though i sleep and sleep and sleep and sleep and sleep and sleep and sleep. :( and the plan to exercise/tone up/run run run run run hasn't worked. yet. need to burn off the 5kg Exam Kilos! i... think i ate a tad much during the EOY period. 5 kilos~ - -" ooh or maybe i can try growing taller 8) haha!
so... family went to the SITEX IT fair yesterday. before i go on... i need to declare that i will never step foot into fairs of similar scales ever again. ever. unless there is an absence of 1) huge crowds that push/elbow/shove you, 2) huge crowds that push/elbow/shove you, and 3) huge crowds that push/elbow/shove you.
it was like the entire country's population was there! madness. dang scary i am still deeply traumatised.
but anyways.. XIAOEN GOT A.......
*drumroll please!*
MACBOOK PRO!!!!!!!!!!!! aaaaaah haha :D
thank you father+mother+grandmother!! ($$) eeeeee :D now i will proceed to join the people with the Apple Superiority Syndrome. Adios, Windows! hahahahaha! :)
haven't taken it out of the box though! can't bear to. will get about opening the box and set things up some day soon when time forbids and spend the whole day to read the instruction manual. ee hopefully i can get the hang of the new interface. (ling, will figure things out then teach you how to put your macbook to better use k!)
ahahaha :D ok am running out of things to say.
oh oh oh! went to Ion Orchard today! eee the place so big!! madness. O: oh and we bought Lego bricks for the We are One Singapore thing :) on a sidenote, isn't it cool how the company blog URL says weareo-n-e too :) indeed, in so many more ways, we are one.
oh and and and! aah i l-o-v-e all things basic and inspiring. *drifts off into imaginary world* basic as in, MUJI kinda basic. you get what i mean? once you step into these kinda shops/places, you'd feel this vibe and cool air 8) love it how creative yet practical the designs are. even the simplest brown cardboard box/file/notebook looks breathtaking. the bags and pencil cases too... *swoons* oh and has anyone seen MUJI's christmas merchandise!
i declare my love for Apple, Muji, Ikea, Daiso, and all things basic and inspiring. you, are sheer genius. sheer genius. i wanna be a sheer genius too 8) dream house in the future will be stocked up with loads and loads of art supplies (to make presents and give to all mankind) and the house will be cooly furnished and nicely decorated. :) aah.
ok done for now. i promise promise promise a reflective/reflection post is coming soon.
haha i think this post sounds quite bimbotic.
peace out.

xiaoen is (a) sad (girl).
Today, this little P4 girl at my church children’s camp came up to me and said (genuinely and real sweetly),
“Excuse me, are you a girl or boy?”

Photos! (:
From a long time back, random snapshots from here and there (:
Chin and her handheld fan… which we started playing around with 8)
Like trying the wind-blown effect by making your hair stand.
Random shot taken by Feiya before Teachers’ Day Concert ‘09
Shot taken by Miss Yap (Yes, our principal) during the concert itself.
They are mad hilarious man!
Added this segment, with inspiration from Ellen DeGeneres’ Emmy stint with Steven Spielberg. (:
A shot to commemorate the two Roos with braces :D
And the two without. (:
PGA Badge Ceremony 2009

FAREWELL ‘09 (:
PJ PARTY IN OUTER SPACE.

Our candid shot!
I think this was when Chinwen said, “Eh Xiaoen! You have the ugliest face lor!”
-______________________________-
From tallest (left) to tall (right).

run run run run run!
Aiyah dang. Wanted to post ytd, but my phone suddenly died.
Okay just pretend it's yesterday k.
Went to the airport to welcome Xinyun and Sarah back from The Philippines! (Yes their country really has a 'The' in its name!) Changi Airport makes me very proud to be a Singaporean. So does Singapore Airlines!
Rushed out sarah's card with chin and ling, then we bought the un-cute cupcake with the funny candle! We had different opinions along the way, and sarah wasn't around to make decisions - -" Hahahahaha (:
Anyways yes Happy, happy birthday, Sarah! <3
Thank you for everything (and I really mean everything!) the past four years. You are an incredible human being and I strive to attain your neatness and time management. (Aiyah a bit impossible, but still.) Man, thanks for being such an amazing friend and CL; you're always so happy and dependable and polite! And calm! Especially when Chinwen's all panicky, your words are very assuring. (:
Rahhhhhhh (no not calling you) I don't know what to say, but you're very much loved and thank you for all the good and stressful times we've had together, the happy moments, the 'uh-oh-we-screwed-up' ones, all the "it's okay, can one!", the trips to your house, the laughter, the tears (not really right? okay during farewell, yes.), and for the phone call in Dec'08 when you told me that yall were not coming for the musical. ): (HAHAHAH WILL REMEMBER THAT FOR LIFE OKAY.)
The thing is, you don't know how awesome a person you are, you know! Have confidence in yourself and don't keep brooding over past boo-boos k. (Shucks i don't know why im talking like that but i think you get it.) Have a fantastic 16th birthday (pretend like you're reading this on your birthday!!!) and stay happyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy! :D Love (:
Some photos. Sunbeamm hasn't had photos for a long time. Hope this works!!
~
Okay crap, it doesn't.
12am, Xiaoen is cultivating a healthy habit of sleeping early. Photos... when it works. I will find a way to conquer techology.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY (:
OK BYEBYE (:

an attempt to pen down some thoughts before they leave me.
So... Er hello (:
GAH sunbeamm is getting very boring I sincerely apologise for the lack of updates and photos. will get about to revamp stuff as soon as I lay hands on the new laptop.. which will hopefully be a mac. Hah! :D
I feel very tech-crippled right now because, as the earlier post mentioned, technology has been failing me... and um, I just lost my digital camera. Which er contains all the photos from Farewell'09. Sigh.
Kind souls, if you see a Sony Cybershot Compact somewhere around... It's white and is kept in a lime green casing (that isn't very lime green anymore 'cos it's very dirty - -") and there's a memory stick in the casing as well. PLEASE RETURN IT TO ME ):
Shucks man I get this feeling I won't have as much luck as the hard disk. (thanks Tania, again!) Anyways, the camera was last seen.. in the backstage of the hall? I remember rushing backstage after level closure and dumping my handphone, script and camera on a random table.
AAAAAAAH ):
Never mind. I am very bored. And am losing interest in the Internet.
Anyways, as the title goes.. Here's an attempt to pen down some thoughts before they leave me.
The past four years in Nanyang has been good. Pretty eventful, I must say. Friends have come and gone, time has passed and faded away. Like Michael Jackson's signature, indeed, all is Gone Too Soon.
In the past four years, we've all struggled to forge some kind of identity. We came into Secondary School in NY thinking we were pretty matured kids. Well at least I did. P6 days seem kinda fuzzy and far away.. But bits and pieces still remain. It was difficult, honestly, to start from the bottom of the ladder again in Sec 1. Because you'd think that you're quite good with all the experience you've garnered. We were wrong. Because the past four years have taught me so much. And as we stand here, thinking and feeling like we know a lot.. I doubt I'll feel the same way four years down the road.
Still, heck about what lies ahead. Bask in this freeze frame as we all try to recount, clumsy it may be, the good days we've had. It's strange and funny that I have, fortunately or unfortunately, established some sorta comedic image with the rest of the school in this last year as a Sec 4. Barbarella, Prince.. ?!
On a sidenote, can I please add that none of the script for Prince's act came from me. I promise. None. Of. It.
Except the Miss Kiap one. "From Butterfly Park Primary School, please welcome.... MISS KIAP! *do exaggerated butterfly flapping action*" Only that one.
Tan Yan Ni has very acquired humour. Like Huili. 'Cept hers is a lot lame-r. You live up to your presidential campaign speech, Yanni! I vow never to do anything as lame as that again. Ever.
I sound very monotonous.. Shall inject the rest of this with exclamation marks!
Like that! Like yo! Yo! Wassup, yo!
Fail.
I think I've grown quite a lot stage-wise in the four years. Performing is quite exciting, really. In Sec 1, it was the funny skit we put up during LSC'06, which garnered us a third position. (: That was the first script I wrote in NY! Can't remember the details at all, though; if only we captured that.
Then in Sec 2 there was OM. Ohmygosh (and that sounds very bimbotic) we a-b-s-o-l-u-t-e-l-y disliked that at first. Like BLEARGHHHHHHHH-with-a-tongue-sticking-out-face kinda dislike! Shucks man that was in Sec 2, feels like my group members were just over at my house making props yesterday. Thank you for the memories, Sylvia, Carissa, Evelyn, Celine, Tabitha. (: We rocked it. Though we were 0.4 (?) points away from the trophy which SCGS eventually took away, we were winners. And then there was the teachers' day performance that same year, where Phua Chu Kang revived and took the stage. Together with nerdy Hwa Chong boys who were in love with Nanyang girls, the Singapore Airlines and all. 212 owned it man. I think I would have been impressed looking at us.
In Sec 3... er there wasn't anything much. Right? Oh I remember our Wu Niang dance though! Haha! Batch'06's item during the NYGG Teachers' Day Concert. And the lame magic tricks. Epic fail. Epic funny! EH, I still have the video of our performance! I can't upload itttttttttttt keeps failing ): Er.. it's in the hard disk, which is currently spoilt.
Oh there was the Kang Xi and Humpty Dumpty performance in Sec 2 also! Hahahahah sudden recollection. Video's with me as well.. In Sec 2 we also had the sandwich-making competition which we owned. (Y)
And the Salad-making & Skipping Competition in Sec 3. We owned the salad-making too.
Thank God for awesome classes the past four years. 112 '06, 212 '07, 310 '08, 410 '09. Thank you for being so darn amazing and for not having any politics. It's almost like I grew up in Kampongs the past 4 years, with cool simple friends who genuinely cared for one another. Love (:
Okay this post is getting very long; am off to eat my curry puff and then to hit the sack. Will be back soon, hopefully. With cooler stuff, hopefully. A lot more to pen down, on CCA, teachers, friends, and people.
As for now, HUUUUGE day tmrw. Hopefully it doesn't rain and that all will go well (:
I need to find my camera and get my hard disk fixed.
Adios!
GAH sunbeamm is getting very boring I sincerely apologise for the lack of updates and photos. will get about to revamp stuff as soon as I lay hands on the new laptop.. which will hopefully be a mac. Hah! :D
I feel very tech-crippled right now because, as the earlier post mentioned, technology has been failing me... and um, I just lost my digital camera. Which er contains all the photos from Farewell'09. Sigh.
Kind souls, if you see a Sony Cybershot Compact somewhere around... It's white and is kept in a lime green casing (that isn't very lime green anymore 'cos it's very dirty - -") and there's a memory stick in the casing as well. PLEASE RETURN IT TO ME ):
Shucks man I get this feeling I won't have as much luck as the hard disk. (thanks Tania, again!) Anyways, the camera was last seen.. in the backstage of the hall? I remember rushing backstage after level closure and dumping my handphone, script and camera on a random table.
AAAAAAAH ):
Never mind. I am very bored. And am losing interest in the Internet.
Anyways, as the title goes.. Here's an attempt to pen down some thoughts before they leave me.

All my bags are packed, I'm ready to go.
Tired.
Sappy post ahead.
Farewell for now.
'Cos we're leaving on a jetplane; we don't know when we'll be back again.

When technology fails you...
Refer to the title of this post.
Mental, emotional meltdown. That is, when technology decides to fail you. Altogether.
Imma HUGE fan of all things tech-y. It's very intriguing and amazing, almost mind-blowing at the same time, when one takes a tour of all the new gadgets. Loooove, craving, addiction. (Oh golly. Control, Xiaoen.) DSLRs, Apple's new Magic Mouse (it is darn cool), laptops, photo printers, computers, phones.. ah.
It's a different story, however, when technology FAILS you. Trusty laptop crashed a while ago. Ok, fine. THEN, my dad's one crashed as well. And because my house does not believe in a desktop, we are currently living in a house with absolutely no computer or whatsoever. This handphone which yours truly is typing this post upon right now.. has been the only (super tiny) window to the cyber world. Speaking of the cyber world, I think it is too big for anyone's good, and many have already spiralled into it to a point of no return. The cyberworld will crash one day.
And everyone will lapse into huge fits and meltdowns. Imagine the sight. Scary.
So anyways, back to the story. After the demise of both laptops in the house.. my wonderful harddisk which tania cleverly found previously.. is spoilt. Haven't thought about thinking if it a)is really spoilt b)can be fixed c)can be salvaged. think a few thousand photos and documents.
Handphone is a bit wonky as well. Aah, my only window to the cyber world~
Ok actually i havent come to the zhong dian of the story yet. But anyways, the moral of the story (long story cut short) is that
1. Save your work periodically while doing. The stupid-ness of doing halfway and then something crashes/hangs/dies and-you-realise-that-all-your-effort-has-gone-down-the-drain is seriously darn stupid. Save your work, period.
2. Find out and KNOW the WEP key of your home's wireless network. Seriously dude.
3. Stay calm in the face of technical adversity. Humans triumph.
And the rest I forgot. Anyways, like the good ol' friendster status for relationships, "It's complicated." Complicated, it is. Golly, can you imagine how much more technology will continue to grow down the years? Scary. Exciting nonetheless!
We continue to hope fervently for homework-savvy robots. Let there be less machine guns, more nice happy funny huggable robots.
And may they never break down.

because You saw my tears in the velvet dark of the night.
dear God, thank you for your endless grace and mercies. and for all the bible stories, which encompass every imaginable situation we go through in life; they bring lots of comfort, hope and cheer when things get really hard.
dear God, thank you for just being there and answering prayers. even though some prayers go unanswered, i know that Your timing is perfect. thanks for all the surprises and little bits of happy-ness you give.
dear Father, thank you for just being there; having You around is like snuggling up in a thick, warm Winnie the Pooh blanket, especially on a cold rainy day. :)
don't you love the feeling when you snuggle up in a nice big blanket? so warm and fuzzy :)
last paper to go. math, im terrified of you, but hopefully you'll be ok (: sqwawk!
say hello, we're free men once more.

This entire week has been intense. Madness. The inner mugger in everyone unleashed like a crazy monster. Mad. And it's like when I think I'm studying dang hard, everyone else is studying even harder! Oh, boy.
The atmosphere in every single Sec4 class is 太恐怖了. It's this thick, dark, high-energy, fast-moving, silent cloud that floats across the classroom, except for recesses, when people loosen up a tad.. And then return quickly to our classrooms to continue studying again. Everyone's studying till we're turning green in our faces.
Madness. Ok bye, the reality of life beckons. Geography is waiting to be conquered. Xiaoen is pretty certain she will not finish studying in time for both Chem and Geog on friday. Crikey.
Go, fellow muggers of the world.

a million thoughts bubbling over.
Title says it. Am a tad confused now, really. :l
Roar, ('ve been roar-ing a lot lately) life's been pretty much study, sleep, slack, study, study, slack, slack, study, sleep. eat.
Kinda. But thank God for nice little highlights and suprises here and there, despite times when you feel like resigning and go, "Life sucks." And for weird, strange, happy, encouraging, caring people around who push you a little, love you a little, motivate you a little, and it's these little littles that make that one little step more possible. So thank you, God. And thank you, people who shower my life with littles. (:
75 for Math (I) and (II)? 'Ve got no clue. This feeling is but all too familiar. Who wants to fail anymore? Hate this apprehension. Bother. :( But.. there's no point in this gibber, so keep quiet, slash the worries, do your work and prove your worth. Easier said than done, but life's about trying, isnt it? So try it will be.
Will be moving to another blogsite when there' time. Privacy issues are a bother with blogger. - -" Livejournal? We'll see! Or maybe this whole blogging thing will end. - -" Oh yeah, sorry for the -______- posts lately. 'Ve been blogging from my handphone so no photos! Plus life's been -_____- too. But at least a -______- life in peace and health is better than one struck by the calamities of natural disasters and rife. We need to keep the victims of the recent spate of natural disasters in our prayer, and give thanks for our relatively peaceful lives.
Am out. Frenzy of papers coming. We will remain unfrenzied. Er is there such a word? Okay goodbye.

Thankful.
Thank you, God, for seeing me through the past 16 years (: For giving me a safe environment to live and grow in. And for friends and family, who've given me so much love and care, which I am very, very thankful for. Please teach me to focus, to self-discipline, that I will grow, more than in mere age, but more so to be like You, in spiritual maturity. Thank you, Lord (: Your love is the best present anyone could ever receive.
Xiaoen is sixteen!! Ok not really, Sarah reminded that I was only born at 10 plus at night - -" But heh.
Spent the day with Chin Ling Rah, over lunch and study. Twas quite a fruitful day, really! Thanks for the super pie, the laughter-filled meal (with beheaded baby octopus-es and all) plus all the time, fun and love (: Lookin' forward to our next adventure! Oh Rah, your birthday's next. (;
Thank you for all the greetings and SMSes!! Albeit with "Eh grow up lah" or "Exams are coming!!!". Haha (: Really, really appreciate your thoughts, super friends! :D Man, some made me tear. (AAH IM SO WIMPY HAHAHA :D) But it's so nice when people tell you you mean a lot to them! Squishy hug.
It's a weird and wrong time to have a birthday, when everyone's buzzing about for exams. - -" But mm, it's F1 time, and 月饼节 is around the corner too. So, haha! Not that bad lah. 8)
Some surprising well-wishes today, from people whom I haven't seen in an awfully long time, from past camps and stuff. It's a cool feeling man (:
Squeeee ok, over and out. Thank you, you, you, you and every single person out there, you have no idea how much you mean to me (: I love you, and may God bless your happy soul (: Just as how He's showered my life with so many blessings.
Happy birthday to meeeeee! :D
/Edit- AND CHAN YAN NING MY SUPER TWIN THE HANNAH MONTANA (: I LOVE YOU!
