2007!

HAPPY 2007!!

the last day of 2006 was spent fruitfully i can say. after meeting kg in town, realised that Spotlight was closed for the night and art friend at taka was closed, too. so she couldn't buy her stuff for project and we went to Dome for our last dinner of 2006. haha. had honey baked ham sandwich and a basket of crabcakes and chicken rings and of cos the iced choc gelato. hahaha. sher ended work early so she was with us. and we sat till closing when they were celebrating their manager's bday. we had Goodwood park hotel's durian cake. superbly nice. it was 11pm when we leave Dome.

we didnt want to squeeze at Esplanade so we decided to loiter and hanf ard town while waiting for time to pass. we were disgustingly shocked at the number of FWs present in town. scary! police had to do routine checks too. we were like walking in little india. hahaha. and i assumed that they paraded from little india to town since it's near. in the end we sat outside Specialist's Starbucks while waiting for 12am. those FWs at opposite was howling and whistling for no good reason. so time slipped and it was 12am. no countdown or anything at all. just human traffic.

we walked and walked to Istana park and saw some fireworks on top of park mall. greatttt. sat down there to talk and we saw liyu and her bf there. so coincidental. we talked for like 1hr+ before proceeding to walk again. we broke record mere minutes after 2007 reached. we actually walked from shaw house to istana park to art musuem to stamford house to raffles city to suntec to esplanade to fullerton hotel and finally stopped at raffles place mrt. couldnt call a cab and we were pratically stranded at raffles place. it was like 2am+. NR was packed. luckily liyu came over in their cab and fetched us back. sleepover at kg's hse. hahaha.

had to wake up early morning to go back to town to get materials for her proj. we were like zombies lah. haha. took cab from PS back home as we were tired and i had to rush home for the family gathering. haha. watched my dad play mahjong and we juniors were given the opportunity to play 4winds. hahaha. dad lost abt $100 in the end. had steamboat too. i reckon steamboat isnt the best thing to have esp when there's 20 over ppl. oh the motive for this gathering was to gather everyone since my youngest uncle came back from taiwan with his family and are going back tmr. saw my 2 cousins i've nv seen b4. so taiwanese. but cute. haha. had fun watching them play mahjong, and everyone was looking forward to CNY when there's 2 tables of mahjong at my granny's hse. haha. i like my aunts (gu gu). mahjong seems so fun with them playing. nice gathering. i like them, my paternal side, unlike my maternal side. pui. CNY was always bad cos we have to go over to maternal side FIRST every Chu yi. hmph. anyway. my new year resolution! thought of it just now.

1. Graduate with better grades this last semester
2. get a good job! this is impt!
3. Good health and wealth for family and friends and of cos myself
4. lose weight! getting fatter everyday
5. class 3 license!!! 7 more days! i muz do it!
6. just let everything go my way lah. im bad at resolutions

anyway i seem to foresee that 2007 will not be a good year for me. haha. and im 19 years old already. going 20 in 2007. gosh.

p/s: oh. while playing mahjong, my aunt spotted a whole stretch of rainbow opposite my flat. everybody was so happy to see it. 7 obvious colours. awesome view. somehow the rainbow brightened up my day, or maybe even my year. :D
