DECEMBER

haha sorry for the lack of updates! the last week was so busy with these random surprise tests for all the subjects. so annoying. i must say though i think it turn out pretty okay...

anyway last friday was jennifer's bday party! WOOO. at TGI Fridays. Happy Birthday Jennifer! after that was suppose to go to dream hollywood. but i felt sooo sick. no idea why though anyway i thought the food was awesome! despite the dramaness after that..

haha Birthday girl!! with evetor's (me faking) gift. HAHAHA
Damn FIERCE OK. HAHAHA ANTM (left side only)

Me and Birthday Girl! yay. got loads more pictures but too lazy to upload. HAHA

So anyway today during english, i felt very motivated by 房子先生。 It reminded my of the time in Singapore when like a good teacher takes charge, has a clear plan and knows what he wants our class to achieve. He gives constructive feedback and told us what was needed to get good grades. HAHA havent had a teacher like that in two years. I truely miss the days of TMS where we would strive through "competition" or just enjoy XYZ teacher's lesson (of course 阿牛 as well). Then you know what grades u wanted to achieve how to stretch yourself, the extra lessons, classes and the sacrifises teachers made. Today when 房子先生 said the same things as well i was really impressed, my heart beat so fast and i felt a real determination (one not felt for a long time) to really try my best for english. Leaving school we had this conversation:
房子先生: your essays one of those that has great potential. If you continue this trend im sure you'll get a six of a seven
Me: ohh cool so what do u tink i should improve on
房子先生: i tink you should just read more.
Me: Read more?? ?? -.-

Haha. in the midst of this cold and dark winter, where the sun sets at 5 p.m and the days are shorter, you really start to miss home. the friendships that cross boundaries, do they really last? haha its always during this period when i feel home sick, start thinking about people i care. And i see those (e.g. vic) who has already return and wish i could be there too. I tink about the majong sessions that could be played, the gatherings with family, the outings with all the friends back home. haha unfortunately this christmas, i won't be returning back. Instead im going to America, which at first seem like such a promising idea, is now bitter sweet.

Oh well. Make the best of it shop shop shoppp!! :D
Love

sometimes a conversation on MSN seems like the hardest thing and we have nothing to say to each other. do we really cross borders?
im sorry for my silence towards you the last week or so, but i hope u understand why. its just that u've change.
