Escape To A Wonderland.: Blessed & Thankful!

Woohoo~ I'm actually in a pretty good mood today, not because Chinese New Year is just around the corner, I just feel happy! :) Maybe I've gotten my issues settled, and I'm no longer that stressed out or vexed. I've been extremely stress recently over some personal issues, and now, I've finally managed to settle it. I know now that avoidance isn't the way to solve problems in life, all I need is courage to face the music no matter what consequences it's gonna bring me. I need to face my problems, that's the only way I can solve them and make myself a better person.

Anyway, the main highlight of today was the meet up with Jim, the most inspiring and funny lecturer ever! :D Some of my classmates planned a surprise party for him as well as those who are born in January, I'm included. It was quite a surprise to me since I didn't exactly anticipate it! My friends... I don't know how I can ever describe them, all these lovely people, they certainly know how to make people smile. I'm really glad that I got into this course, without this course, I wouldn't have met all these amazing people! So.. The "party" started with some chit chatting and catching up with Jim. He seemed to has lose weight and he looks super tan now, like really really tan and this tan line is pretty obvious. Anyway, we started to prepare for "lou hei" (I have no idea how it's supposed to be spelled, the way I spelled it sounds right to me), it's a Chinese tradition that occurs mainly during the CNY period :) We got the halal one so that our Muslim friends get to try it, it's good to teach them our traditions so that we can enhanced our understanding for different cultures! I hope everyone enjoyed it! OH! Majority of us were "snatching" to eat the crispy thingy from the lou hei, it's the nicest and tastiest among the others. TYPICAL SINGAPOREANS~ My friends are just sooooo cute! :D

I received many presents today although my birthday has passed for quite some time. I appreciate all the effort and time my friends spent searching a present for me and writing cards for me. I love all the presents and cards that I've received! ^^ One of my friend pricked her fingers just because she sewed my name on the angry bird shirt! :( I can't thank her enough for putting so much effort in my present. There's only one sentence for all my friends: You guys are amazing and I love everyone of you! This year is the first year I've received so many presents and cards on my birthday, it's of course, the most memorable birthday for me too! I'm gonna keep and treasure every gifts and cards I've received. Thank you my dear friends! <3 <3

Anyway, I'm just gonna stop here for today. I need to bathe and get to my mum's friend's house for dinner because her son is celebrating his birthday! Yay, I get to see the cute little boy again! WARNING: I'M NOT A PEDOPHILE! I'M JUST SOMEONE WHO LOVES TO MINGLE AROUND LITTLE KIDS! :D Have a good day folks! xoxo
