It's almost the end of 2006, and I thot I should do a review for myself... consolidating things I've learn / done / see / experience so as to be a better individual. I would say that 2006 is one of the best year i had thus far.
I started blogging on the 1st Jan, wanting to do something different on the very start of the year. And I'm glad I did, cos' I'm someone who keep mini-diaries lying around, so blog serves as an organized channel for me to leave memories of things I wanna remember. Thanks to the internet... and whomever invented blogging. *hee*
This year started out rough... I remember spending the last countdown at selegi road watching one of liverpool's match at a pub. And here I'm, 12 months later... I would say I'm a much enlightened and changed individual. A better one I hope.
What have I done to see the change?
I wanted to go for exchange in hongkong. Filled up application, was approved by ntu. Yet I chose not to go in the end. Simply cos mummy din want me to go. Loved her too much to go things to hurt her I guess. If it's ping 2 years back, maybe I'll just pack my bag and leave. Learn to appreciate my family more~ thgz I know there is much more that can be done~
I did my professional attachment as an auditor. Always taking a positive attitude in my work, I really did had fun. I see people complaining about the mundane work they get at PA, but I think they just fail to see how the 'mundane work' contributes to the bigger picture. I just took each task as a learning experience and I sure did learn a lot. I am certainly blessed with great colleagues. Be it from ntu or from chio lim, I've broadened my social circle with one more group of great people.
I've been volunteering mentor for almost a year at cdac. And I am truly glad i did. I've learnt so much from the mentors about life and attempted to influence lifes positively. special tks to wayne who never fail to be encouraging and always so positive. As for caiying, I see myself in her really~ I seem to have went through all that she is going through now. And I just realize how much I've grown- mentally, I'm really stronger than I use to be.
I survived through this 2 semester with self-planned time tables. Was really afraid to enter a new class without anyone I know. But through this experience, I know more people and really became more independent. Love my aa205 groupmates. Tim, oi lam, sue min... just angels to work with. So fun loving, so caring. grinz*
Was glad to join the yaya clique after spending my first 2 years in uni with yz. all thanks to ah Ru~ I realize how restricted my social circle was then... and that is definitely not what gwen wants. And I'm glad we made the chose to move separate path, cos I we are of totally different personality. And if someone is thinking of why I'm ignoring you. Listen to this song... zhui shou xi de mou shen ren by elva. You'll know what I mean.
Went for hall camp this year and got to know losta freshie & caught up with seniors. Din manage to go last year... was looking after someone cos he was sick? Or am I playing WOW in hall? Anyway, I'm really glad I join the camp this year! Through the games and stuff, gotta see the seniors again... and also know nice people like emileo, nik, aik hong, jian yao and many more juniors~ just so nice to meet people~ nice people esp.
Was telling emileo that my life philosophy is that all people are good until proven evil. He said I am naïve. Then I was thinking about auditing. We are to assume that fraud do exist in the revenue part of the accounts. Haha... out of point. Okie, never mind.
I'm glad ede & I took the same ge which was mend to be a mistake at first~ we accidentally chose this wrong module~ but decided to stick to it since we got loan textbooks (no sunk cost) and we saw losta familiar faces in class~ that's spenz & tao zui... and knew shawn too. The one guy who chauffeured me to-and-fro school & around when necessary. It's so amazing~ I gotta say he open up a whole perspective of my definition of 'high life'. Going spa & having car appreciation dinner~ hee... interesting & yet its beyond my lifestyle. I remember I told him I bought 2 wallets over the weekend. And he said his family bought 2 cars over the weekend. *diaoz*
I celebrated my 21st birthday this year~ meaning I went to many 21st birthday party too! I love my whole 21st birthday celebration. And I declare that I'm no longer a princess after my 21st birthday! I wanna be an empress~! Haa... no lahz, princess give me the connotation of a pampered kid who simply wanna be loved and not contribute On the other hand, real life princess lead restricted life which aren't what I want too. I wanna be an independent person~ and I'm sure I'm working towards it.
And I wanna see more depth in myself~ I always complain that people are shallow when they comment about my height or my looks. But again, I need to be zai before having the right to comment that people are shallow yah? and I wanna be a better person~ inside...
The jc guys studying again after 2 years break... It's nice having familiar faces around. And having met ken & wz for most of the Tuesday for lunch~ its kinda cool to see them in school again~ *hee* intending to plan ge with them next sem~ my last sem in uni~ thinking of how life woule be after that~ oh yah, we have ht & ks going to SIM too... and zhi studying in auz~ after jc, we split path to seek our speciality in life. I just hope that regular meetings and catching up will keep the class together? cos in my humble opinion, friends are just so essential in life.
Finding my secondary clique back! That's sarah, lee ting & janice. I totally enjoyed the dayz we had together! our spontaneous photo taking & impromptu meetings and gatherings~ I gotta say they are rather seasonal but we really did had fun! High tea sessions~ medicure~ chalet~ cycling~ shopping~just love it!!
And I am happy to see best friend back on track again! i recall how lost she was before she enter poly... and now she's a totally different girl! I suppose her new class mates are really one bunch of fun loving kids~ hee... and I am so so happy to see her back on track~ jia you girl!!
I see 3 new babies in my family this year~ that's baby Kayden , Kathlynn and Kendrick ~ new life injected into the family really bring joy to all! I gotta say that kids are definitely not easy to raise. (Was thinking whether its nature or nuture? All my friends answered nuture. But according to research, its part of nature too~ and I do see some of nature traits in my family~ my entire family CANNOT SING!! Okie, for people who suffered previously, I finally realize this & I won't torture anyone anymore k? haa...) And getting them to be respectable individual when they grow up is definitely a challenge for parents. Even for the educated ones, it may not be any more easier. Looking at kids... they can be just so adorable~ but i wonder what lies ahead for them... I'm proud to say that, I think mummy did a great job in raising me & jie! Though me & jie are different~ but we are really disciplined and motivated with our studies~ mummy never have to ask us to study at all. We volunteer and make donations to people in need... cos mummy do contribute to others even though we are not any more wealthier.
I've got a few new possession which I love! That's my digital camera~ a family property! I believe that one memories cannot last forever. So picture serves as a good jockey for fond memories.
I set up online stall with ah jie. Revenue stands at humble 200 plus~ but again~ its things we don't want that we are selling~ so no COGS. That makes profit = revenue. Haha... I'm deceiving myself! and did our very own flea market @ scape with jie, best fren & her sis. *great entrepreneur experience.

I'm employed by Deloitte. i am happy that i passed all the 4 interviews i went. So will be working once i graduate. That sound so cool to all my friends from engine~ so great to get a job even b4 graduating... b4 we know whether we'll be getting honours~ and engine pple keep saying~ 4 modules only? so slack... BUT~ i have to emphasize that accountancy is not easy to study k? we very stress de!
I'm seeing life in a brand new perspective! One year ago, I'm living in self deciving misery. But now~ with so many friends & lovely family around. I'm just a blessed girl! I love my life... just enjoy breathing~ and absorbing the presence of oxygen~ okie~ lame~
Oh yah, my family! I admit I totally overlooked on them previously. In fact, they are the ones who loved me the most. Esp mummy and jie! Mummy is just so... its beyond what words can describe. But I really intend to give half of my pay to mummy once I start work. Through according to friends its not possible with the high expencses. But again, I dun spludge much~ hopefully I can keep to my intended budget. And my jie! She loves me... I know! Hee... I'm just so pampered with jie tugging me into bed every night~ I gotta make sure I dun take things for granted. Love jie! Love mum!
:: a glimpse of how i've chged in 2006::
All haphazard thoughts~ gotta come up with organization soon~
