5 days vroomsss and it ends tomorrow. new year celebration basically is the same this year but the anticipation and participation in house visiting seems to be more active. i used to laze around on new year because eventually we’ll be meeting everyone back at school when school reopens. but this time around, 5 days is not enough for us to reallly get together and have fun. gonna miss these days when im back there. the way back along the causeway till the highway and across the ‘kampung’ way 5 days ago will never be the same tomorrow. the feeling and excitement would be totally different. we are still physically strong over there but as for mentally, its different because there are not many friends over there to share burden, sorrow and happiness. adaptation skill is the key and i think im eligible to voice out that im physically alright although i lost a few pounds which im quite ok with it. conversely, when the night falls, after facing all sorts of pressure during the day, loneliness is much felt. im sure the journey back tomorrow will not be fun at all. i may sound weak but im trying to build myself stronger and im on the right track towards it. last night at home, wondering when can i blog with ease and peace. happy chinese new year and take care my friend. march would be the very month and i wish you guys and myself all the best!

Singing John Denver’s ‘Take me home, country road’, im finally back at home for new year. after almost 2 months out there, a sense of belonging is much felt when i arrived. new year celebration has been the same at home for the past few years. after i settle all my stuff, i stick my eyes to tv after such a long time didnt get to watch tv. the joy of new year is in the air when the programme showing starts coutdown to new year. 10, 9, 8 they go and its new year. i went out with my friends after the countdown for a drink. back at home, the only thing that i’ve been longing for. my cosy bed and i actually slept till 11.30 this new year morning. slack around with all the junk food and i went out in the afternoon to visit my friends. enjoyed playing cards and the excitement continues at night and it last till now. im finally back again after all the outing. i watched i not stupid too at bugis the day before eve. ‘made in singapore’. i think thats what people rates this movie. good or bad? decide yourself according to this verse. but much to my surprise, a 2 and a half hour midnight show doesnt make me sleepy at all although the chair in the cinema is so cosy. this movie blends laughter and tears so well that it really captured my attention. watch it if you guys ahve the chance. its a ‘cool’ movie, which is not so ‘lame’. whatever!..hehe..going back to singapore soon. hope to enjoy these last few days at home to the fullest.

Almost 2 months across the causeway, life is still as fine as ever. daily routine never change i.e. work. living in a new environment is something fresh to me. although the nature of my job is nto my cup of tea, but im taking it as a challenge or i would say ‘extra classes’ for me to learn something new. this is the time to build myself tougher. well, facing work pressure and problems is nothing compared to the day i receive my muet results. im so disappointed with my result. maybe im just not good for a 6. eventually i got a 5 and what irritates me is that my score is 255. and what i need is another 5 points to get a band 6. im really not good enough for that. forget bout this although i cant. im fine here in singapore and im looking forward for chinese new year eve because im going back! missing my friends and family!…see ya guys this saturday!
