Approaching CNY

CNY is nearing! Looking forward, but at the same time, hope it wun come too fast! cos after CNY, it means many assignments are due, and I'll be going for my final practicum!

Anyway, had been having a bad and persisting cough for more than 2 weeks! visited the doctor 3 times, and he said its because my respiratory system is sensitive to the cold weather... really bad cough that deprived me of my sleep in the middle of the night, caused me to be eating plain porridge for the past week, caused me to stop exercising... can the cough please go away soon?? i really need to sleep well, to eat like normal, and to continue my exercise regime! somemore there's alot of CNY goodies at home now, tempting me to eat! esp my 4th aunt's home made pineapple tarts!!

i shall go and eat my cough syrup and hope my cough will go away soon.. its really getting better, thanks to all my friends who are concerned, and of cos Deary who cooked the cough tea for me...

anyway, stipend is in! shall go and sign up for the URun challenge =)

Quoted from wy's blog on the definition of friends: you cannot be friends without constantly insulting each other... well, how true is that... becos only if you treat the other person as a friend, then you will bother to 'insult' and make fun of him/her... so if i ever 'insult' or say something that seems to be making fun of you, it only means that you're my friend, and i treat you as one...

Definition of friends is really broad... In many aspects, you'll expect more from someone more special than someone not as important...

week 1 of last sem in NIE

its the end of week 1 for my last sem in NIE... only 5 more weeks to go, before I proceed to 10 weeks TP2 and then its graduation.. time really flies... it seems just yesterday that i went for moe interview, and the signing of contract, but i'm alr in year 4 last sem now.. only 3 days of lessons, but quite alot of work to do.. gotta change my mindset else i'll find it hard to survive the next 5 weeks! 以往上教学法课时我总是得过且过，并没有认真听讲。这回，两个科目都是教学法，如果我再抱着同样的心态，恐怕只是让自己这5周过得更痛苦。我应该抱着积极的态度，认为这些教学法有益于我的教学。

but seriously, i find it hard to listen attentively.. i just prefer other academic subjects.... anyway, cny is coming in 3 weeks time! just went to city plaza with wy yesterday to get some clothes, but din get much, cos not much money left lol! spent too much in China alr hahah..

相信世上最让人留恋的，就是一切美好的回忆……

Happy 25th Birthday Deary!

Hope you'll have a great birthday! I'm sure we'll have lots of fun in Batam!

强烈推荐《藏地密码》这部长篇小说。 扣人心弦的情节，让人卷不离手。连我这个平时很少阅读的人都被深深吸引，可见其魅力之大。紧张刺激的探险之旅，同时也介绍了西藏的明媚景色，不禁让我向往到那里去。也许，这会是我新的旅游目标。虽然我知道，至少要等上个三五年或更久，才有可能踏上青藏高源。

今天刚征服了10公里的慢跑，时速比上回run for hope 还快了将近10分钟，尽管今天的路面较滑，而且我又刚病好，加上已经很久没运动了。因此有这样的成绩，我可是喜出望外。然而，我还在犹豫是否应该参加usports 的10公里加33层楼攀爬的挑战。不知我的脚是否负荷得起，因为今天跑完10公里后，左膝盖似乎隐隐作痛，希望明早起来就会没事。

再过一个月，便是农历新年了。感觉今年的新年来得特别早。也许是因为去年的考试迟结束，因此觉得圣诞和2010年转眼间就过了。即是期待新年的到来，又不希望它这么快降临。总是喜欢这种期待、盼望的感觉！

Happy New Year

Just got back from Chengdu last night, was a great trip, thoroughly enjoyed ourselves, the cold weather, the awesomely beautiful scenery, and the great company! the rest of the tour group as well as the tour guide played an important role too! esp the tour guide! he's really nice, the best tour guide from China that we've encountered!
