Chinese New Year(CNY) was not celebrated by me again for the second year as i opted to follow the traditions of the old and not celebrate CNY for 3 years since the passing of my mum. Although according to the modern days, people don't really follow the traditions and the tradition changed from3 years to only 1 year. Anyway, for me, this CNY i spent the public holidays working at universal studios for the second time again which is the same as last year. Besides the eve of CNY where i spent having dinner with the rest of my family members, i went to visit my grandma after work during the first day of CNY and as for the second day of CNY, went to have dinner with my brother and father as they came to look for me after my work in sentosa. On the third day of CNY, it was declared a holiday in my school and i spent the day resting and relaxing after working for 2 days. I also visited my mum at kong meng temple before heading for my grandma's place as i chatted with her for quite a few hours and having dinner there before going home.
Finally on the fourth day of CNY which i did not have any classes but needed to go back school to finish our FYP presentation slides as we needed to present it the very next week. Time to chiong again for our FYP as our group worked hard doing up the FYP slides and the making of the prototype that needs to be shown during the FYP presentation. Our FYP group really worked hard all the way till the end of our FYP presentation and with some luck and help from one of the lecturers in school of design, we managed to come out with the prototype to be presented.
After the whole FYP presentation, the comments given by the lecturers really warmed our hearts and let us feel that all the sacrifices made were worthwhile and a huge burden was dropped after nearly 1 year since we embarked on this FYP journey. We were overjoyed and relieved as our efforts were recognised by the panel of lecturers.
Anyway, we celebrated with some of our classmates which is yesterday where we had a delicious dinner at bugis area. It is great time spent together, one of the few times where me and my poly friends actually hang out together.
Ya, beside school, i had a major gathering with my 18 of Universal studios(USS) work friends as well just this past sunday. We had this major gathering where we celebrated 3 of my friends' birthdays(calista, ying fang and wee kiong) with a farewell as well as one of my friends, calista who is furthering her studies in australia and will be leaving soon in a few weeks time. These kind of major gathering with so many people seems rare as it comes only a few times in a year. Anyway, in this kind of major gathering, i guess i had always enjoyed the time that is being spent. I guess i always feel closer to my USS friends more than my poly friends and 1 of the reasons is because we had more gatherings where we would have fun together always. Haha!!!
Going on, my resolutions for the year 2012, after being SINGLE for so long, i longed for a breakthrough, will i get that breakthrough this year? Chances are never high i guess as i failed for so many years in my entire life up to now. One word decribes this feeling and status for being SINGLE for so long and for me, this word is SIAN!!!!!!!
Second resolution is about my studies, after so long, i finally decided on whether to continue my studies and a choice was made by me recently where i choose to study in a 2-year course for an honours degree in food and human nutrition at Singapore instutite of technology. For this, i hope to be lucky enough to get a place to study in this course in this year of 2012.
Not anymore resolutions which i can think of now. Just hope these 2 resolutions can be fulfilled in this wonderful year of the dragon!!! Hooo!!!! Cheers!!! Till my next blog post............................
