ah.seems like the day,9th jan beckons to me.this will prob be my last post in 2.5 weeks,maybe even longer,no promises.
yesterday was my last day at work..despite the short 4-5 days working arnd my colleagues,friendships were forged.and i definitely wont remember some of the people there.
so.now im left with 2 days.and half of the first day is already gone.well,i could say that ive spent it quite alright,considering the fact that i busied myself arnd the house doing household chores,smth i havnt been doing in a long time.at least do smth for the house before i go in.the rest of the 1.5 days will be spent with family i guess.
oh.and i have to thank the following people for making my past 2 years so worth living.its really been the best 2 years of my life.
1)the climbers, bel,darren,chicken,weicheng,limzy,terrence,rongjun,choonwei,kelvin,joey,graham,jingwen,junyu,shuhui
claire,siying,wanting,crystal,rachel,elmo,eelin,shalynn,yingxuan,kelly,philip.
just abt the most fun bunch to be with in school.the people i look forward to every break,lunch,wed,fri,sat.the suans,the fanciful moves,sentosa,gatherings,competitions,cheering,ups and downs,expeditions.
thanks for being so supportive,motivating,and enjoyable.this i wont forget.thanks to the bunch of good listeners inside too.shalynn,bel,terrence,chicken,joey,choonwei,thanks for listening to me when i was troubled.
2)my damn good friend,zheya.

liubo,gordon,ronald,alvin,mingwei,junxiang,wenfeng,zahir,zhenghan,sunny,chormin,huiping,michelle,gekting,
christine,yingxiu,bekah,huixian,momo,abigail,sokhan
a wacky bunch to be with.sorry i didnt turn up for the class gatherings until the last 2,but you guys have brought me much laughter and fun during the oh-so-boring lectures and tutorials.the stupid,childish things we did in class were dumb,but thinking abt it still brings a smile to my face.i ll see you guys when results come out again.thanks!
4)my tutors,
mr desai,mr lim,mrs lim,ms tan,mrs tan,ms lim,mr wong.
thanks for your patience and dedication,esp towards the A levels period.lets now pray and hope we dont fail you.thanks=)
5)my parents,
mr and mrs tan.
sorry ive been such a horrid child for the past 2 years and now im off to defend the country.really appreciate it when u didnt put any pressure on me to get good grades and the encouragement given when i didnt do well in school.mum,thanks for the wonderful meals u cook every night and dad,thanks for the antics that never fail to make us laugh.i love you mum and dad.
6)D.E.W.E.L.
dickson,eugene,weeyang,lihao,zihe,ngeeyong.
our gatherings are far and wide,but everytime we meet we never fail to reminisce the good ole dunman high days and still laugh about it.please,try to at least keep our new years eve bbq tradition alive=)all the best dudes.take care there!
7)climbing teacher(retired),
mr marcus tan.
thanks for listening and giving ur philosophical advice when i had problems with the club.ur teaching method may be weird and strange,but it sure is effective.always remember the deleted biblio!hope all goes well for you in future,mr tan=)
that just abt wraps up my last post before NS.to those i didnt mention,not that i forgot you or ure not important,but thanks to all those who ve helped me or been a great friend in school or out in the past 2 years,even if you re just the kinda person who says hi to me in school or give me a smile when ever we see each other,thanks.
to all those who re not enlisting just yet and the ladies,take care(the weather;s being a b***h),have fun be it at work or play,and treasure and enjoy every moment!

oh crap.is it too late to wish the chiangmai ppl yi lu shun feng?haha..anyways.too tired to update ytd.so heres a double whammy!
still having lotsa fun here,everything is ust so enjoyable.the weather,the people,the scenery.pity tmr's my last day.joining another day tour out of dublin again,to glendoughlough.nice scenic place,ive seen in books.
anyways.today,explored the city itself,went to see a museum..yawn*.castle in the middle of the city,err..blabla.looking for that damn hard to find xmas present of hers.=)
here are some photos from ytd and today,to further substantiate my point that this is such a pretty,pretty place=)
there was a HUGE xmas lightup at O'connel street last night.the whole atmosphere was.so xmas-sy!its like.the people were gathered swaying to the xmas songs,singing along,there was a procession,with a lion dance troupe by the chinese community here.like wth right.haha..but it was a totally whole new experience.u can tget this kinda atmosphere back home.xmas has a whole new meaning here man.u wont udstand unless ure here.seriously.
where else can u find xmas pine trees growing in the wild,where u can just find raspberries and blueberries growing by the roadside,pluck them and just eat?where acorns are scattered on the ground,together with brown maple leaves turning brown with the onset of autumn?
