It ain't gonna be long till i enter NS, so i thought working ain't as viable as slacking and playing my guts out for now. So... what have i done so far...
Prom night + post-prom:
eeks, boring boring. but photos and company were FANTASTIC. i admit i'm a LITTLE of a camwhore, but i didn't succumb to my temptation of running around the WHOLE ballroom taking photos with everyone... okay i did walk around in disguise a little (supposedly to catch up with people) but that was only a little. it was cool seeing people prancing on stage vieing for the so-called glamourous titles. it was great acknowledging some people i knew but couldn't recognise due to their expensive make-up. but i was rather sad i didn't eat much of the food. i bet IF i did went up stage for the birthday song i would've missed the succulent chicken too... okay i was a little pai-sei, but it's also for the food, really!
post-prom was a disappointment but i did dance a little. i think i danced my best dance in clubs that night. oh well, maybe 'cos i was the 'highest' that night among all the nights i clubbed. haha.
it's cool nicholas went along with me to celebrate my birthday. really appreciate his friendship. i went over to say hi to faizal and belle and danced with them a little. danced with hana too. but then again the lychee martini was good. thanks hana. heh.
Korea trip with family (29th Nov - 6th Dec) :
what can i say. a uber-rare overseas trip with my family. really really appreciate the opportunity to spend quality time with them. well, i'm back and everyone's busy with their own stuff again (yea my bros go out with their friends too) so it's back to normal. But then again, had a really great time sight-seeing and taking in the breath-taking scenery. yea i know jeju island, nami island and seoul do not have the best sceneries, but to my inexperienced eyes, they were a sight to behold indeed. i especially cherish the freedom i get just being myself there. i bet many of you can imagine me unleashing the child-like quality or if u want the childishness in me by jumping in excitment in seoul or getting all starry-eyed at the fantastic sceneries in nami and jeju. i got to see the palace of the korean imperial family in ancient times and wear the koreans' traditional costumes. what made this trip especially important for me was the fact that at a time of sadness and fatigue emotionally, i felt a sense of escapism and an avenue for me to rejuvenate and leave my sadness to be numbed by the cold there. now that i'm back, i feel more accepting of facts that have unfolded in my personal life in recent times, i've learnt to let go of things that ain't gonna happen, and i'm also less fazed by the fact that i'm going to army soon as i know i've spent quality time during the December holidays.
2 interesting events in this trip are the unplanned meeting with two of my friends there in very very rare circumstances! First, i met si min while i was busy posing for photographs at the very scenic nami island. i heard someone call my name and to my surprise it was si min! it was a really pleasant surprise indeed. i regretted taking of my spectacles to take the photos at that time 'cos i got caught doing so and was labelled a 'vainpot' by her sister!!! hahaha.

The second person i met was jade from band. met her in a korean steamboat restaurant... okay most restaurants there serve korean steamboat, but this is not the point. the point is it was sooo coincidental. imagine going to a foreign country the size of korea with more than a 1000 restaurants and meeting your friend in one such restaurant. it was unreal, but at the same time i've met si min already, so it ain't as much a surprise meeting jade anymore since i've learnt how small the world can be. well, it's fun bumping into aquintances and friends in least expected circumstances you know. haha.
Pubbing, mahjong session, etc.:
pubbing was cool 'cos i could catch up with close friends again. really understand the value of true friends now. and now i can truly say i don't really think my life sucks anymore just because i don't communicate as well as others with their classmates.
had mahjong session with sandra (organiser) and 2 of her friends at my house. kinda addicted to it you know.. i've been trying to plan for another such 'gathering', lol. anyone interested?
there's been many other activities like staying over at Liselle's and 'j2 bowling farewell' gathering. all were fun times that i will definitely appreciate after going into army, i'm sure. hahaha.
have a nice day! will be some time again for my next post.
