its been a rather quiet raya this year. think its cos of the so many examinations taking place at the same time. feeling worried for my bro who is taking his A's.. sumhow guys seem so much more 'slack'.. hmm.

been visiting my closest relatives. really happy that i got the chance to meet my lovely cuzzin suzie. been ages. tho she was in spore for two weeks, i only saw her for like an hour. very sad indeed. we used to see each other much more often. chilled out after work. met up during family outings.. all those bbqs and chilling by the beach.. when we just talked and shared stories.. and i ate so much while she ate almost none. those were the good ol days... i miss those times. really.

this year raya made me feel old. cos it finally hits me that all my 'little' cousins are not that little anymore. they've grown and of cos so much taller than me. they are all kakak kakak and abang abang now.. haiz.. time really flies.

what xuefen said is true. things are different now. in the past, whenever we go out, we always meet at control station and go home together via train.. now there's always a car. sumtimes even more than one. three girls to two cars. heh.

its about one month away from my melbourne trip. i am soooo excited. i really want to get out of here and just be away from the ever busy life. its time to enjoy nature and just have a real good laid back time with my darling gfs.

there's loads for me think abt. the year is cmg to an end. i need to sit down, close my eyes and reflect on 2006. reflect on life and plan ahead. there's so many aspects i got to look into. really need time to do this.

a student of mine gave me a pretty necklace yesterday. it was a tiken of appreciation. caught me by surprise and put a smile on my face.

some things in life cant be bought.
