Zi Yan.
Definitely the big sister in the family! She totally has the 'feel'! Caring, always ready to volunteer and a very loyal friend who's rare to come by. Despite her strict upbringings, she never seemed to be rebellious like I am and treat all those around her with definite respect. Since Secondary 1, she's always a joy to be around and her hearty laughter is super infectious. Her self-discipline is something that I can never ever achieve and she is actively contributing in any group work. Not to forget, her suanning skills have definitely improved after sitting next to me! ;D And she really put in effort in all that she does.
I believe you definitely can achieve your dreams as a fashion designer! Go for it! Have faith and confidence in yourself! Thank you for the support and encouragement that you've always given! I Love You! <333

Dear dear seat partner. The long long days you have to endure with me isn't that easy, right? ;D A marvelous seat partner who's very serious in her work. Her compassion for the human race, especially those who are not as fortunate are easily seen once you know her. A person with opinions that are definitely beyond her age. Though she may seem cold on the outside but once you get to know her, you'll definitely be easily be attracted to her. Her personality with a hint of 'blurness' at times just makes people feel instantly at ease. She's always careful and sensitive to those around her to avoid hurting others. Definitely a great friend who'll listen patiently to your problems. She has her own unique working style and once she set her mind to it, she'll stick to her plans all the way. I don't recall the fury side of her (unless you mess up her hair) though she DOES have an evil side like Mr Hyde. Maybe, just maybe, after O Levels I'll mess up her hair for once and see if she kills me =) Or maybe I should do it before O Levels so that I don't have to take O Levels. She has a certain 'feel' that simply says, "Cool, calm and composed". Oh, and she's the only one who sent me the most smileys wearing sunglasses! ;D
Thank you for all your help during lessons and the joy you've added to my studies and more. Its great talking to you and even 'suaning' you! I Love You! <333

I realise, I'm not one to express myself freely. I'm not one that can express myself in the right way. At the end of these 4 years in Xinmin, I have a lot that I want to say. But its just not ME to simply spell everything out. But I'll still give it a shot because these people mean a whole lot to me. Kelvin started this shout-out thing on his blog and it kinda inspired me to do the same.
THIS IS IN NO ORDER.
Dawn!
Muhahahhahahaha. Friend of 8 years. And I never knew she was this CRAZY. Remembered that we put exactly the same choice for CCA and the same department. Though we've never been Secondary School classmates, thanks to CCA and being next-door-neighbour-class, we still got quite close in Secondary 3. Dawn has always been a hard-worker who always gives it her all. She's got a BIG BIG heart and was never irritated by my never-ending questions. There's so much to learn from her indeed and I'm positive that she's influenced me to be a better person in many ways. She's also a great walker that never seems to tire out from all the walking. From anywhere to everywhere, she's been exploring streets and places. AND her sense of direction is still better than mine! ;D To think that we got erm...LOST in Novena. Hahaha. There's so much I want to thank her about, there's so much I want to say, but I just can't seem to get it into words. The endless shopping (especially in Orchard), the times where she would listen to me grumble about maths and chemistry and physics..., the times when she stayed back in school and studied with me, the times when we ran around the parade square, the times she always walks past my class to 'visit the washroom'(NOT countable!), the times we had to choose where to have lunch... The memories with Dawn is not easily forgettable and I am really very very thankful to have this chance to befriend her. She's definitely sensitive to those around her, never failing to notice if I'm down and can be as hyper as anything. If I didn't know her, I MIGHT have though that she was fierce but when you do, she's nowhere near that. She has a temper that is erm...10times better than mine and a caring heart coupled with a helping hand that she never failed to extend. Selflessness and warmth simply overflow from her. One flaw though. SHE IS NOT TICKLISH, unless when she's HIGH. Hehe
Dawn, its simply wonderful having such a fabulous friend that not only helped me in my studies but brightened up my school life tremendously. You PEBBLE! ;D You can definitely bring out the best in life so never ever give up! The journey is long and tiring but I'm always here to talk, go crazy and drive you crazy! Muhahahaha. Never ever forget that! I Love You! <333

MY BIRTHDAY IS OVER! =( Shall post a long post since I feel like it (rare!)
Firstly, thank you to everyone who wished me happy birthday, be it via facebook, sms or in person. Thank you to my class who sang me the birthday song of a total of 5 times over yesterday and today. Thank you to Hui Feng, Dawn, Lydia for going to Kaleidoscope with me! =)) [I just used a...rhetorical device - repetition!]
Kaleidoscope was a great performance tonight. I spaced out during some parts of the melodies as I recalled a few incidents. My life. 16 years on Earth, packed with things. Mistakes, tears, joy, laughter and regrets were all the past. I can't change the past, but I can make my own future. Opportunities, choices, are the future.
Some thoughts during the performances were linked with life. Life is just like a performance. Music, lighting and the stage were merely external factors that enhances the performance. What was truly attractive was the fact that the performers did they best. Their serious expression was written all over their faces. The joy, the nervousness mostly showed. Yet, the rush of adrenaline that surged through them must have been hard to miss.
The whole performance also changes with perspective. The overall feeling is different when you take in the whole scene and when you simply focus on 1 person. With the whole scene, the cooperation matters. Every action you make are crucial to everyone else. Yet, when you simply focus on 1 person, the moves become clearer. With it though, so does the mistakes.
Who doesn't wish to do well in life? It all really depends on the amount of hardwork, effort and just a bit of luck. Life will always have its ups and downs. I will always be on this roller coaster ride. I will be tired along the way, lost, confused. I still am. Torn between choices, doubting my own decisions. One day, everything will be clear, one day, everything will reveal itself in due course. This, is the hope that I cling on to.

Quote of the Day： "我的脑袋进水了" - Kayying

Lord, only you know my heart's desire. This time though, I'm waiting for you.

I love Jesus. No matter what, I choose to believe. To believe in my beliefs that I've held close to my heart for ever so long.
I'm gonna appreciate life's small things =) No use pondering over questions where I won't get my answers in the short term!
I just read "The Last Song". Its super super super nice. Seriously. I think I cried for over an hour (since the page when Ronnie knew about her father and his condition)... Even though the author (Nicholas Sparks) already dropped many hints previously, the way the emotions were portrayed and all were way too real. The reality of someone close leaving. What should we do after we know of our limited time left on Earth? Or rather, what CAN we do?
Nothing much I guess. It feels as though many things are often out of our hands, but I firmly believe that its definitely not out of God's hands. No matter how many times I go running to Him, He always welcome me with open arms. He always accept me for who I am. For who I wished I wasn't.
Here's a little moment I would like to share!
"Wake up! Its time for school."
*10 minutes later*
"Its ___ time now! You're going to be late for school!"
*Looks at the clock before jumping out of bed*
"Why didn't you wake me up ealier! T.T"
*rush around getting ready"
Yep, this happens almost every morning! Hahas, yet, looking back, this is what made my clean record of not being late for school. For the past 10 years, (almost) this is what have happened. And this is my early daily dose of Motherly Love.
