officially 18!I used to think that tuning 18 would be a huge milestone for me. as 1. being 18 allows me to learn how to drive, go clubbing 2.THE legal age to drink (alcohol) and not forgetting 3.being able to watch M18 movies!
no doubt I will have 'sweeter freedom' like my friend said, however, I still have to draw a line when it comes to clubbing and drinking. clubbing used to be a taboo( for me) and to me the atmosphere is like flickering of lights ( on and off), people dancing wildly, and as my friend says that "girls go there to let people touch and guys go there and touch girls!' funny isn't it.
it was only recently that the curious creature in me wanted to experience clubbing. I told myself that I will never drink alcohol, wherever I may be, chalet, parties or even at clubs. no matter how small the amount of alcohol it may contain, I will only drink orange juice or can you believe it, coke. that is the yellow line I am going to draw to keep myself from alcohol.
when my friend asked me to make 3 birthday wishes, the 1st two were rather self centered,
- be able to drive
- be a tai tai by 25
- I wanna teach English in Japan or Taiwan!
the next time I watch a M18 movie or visit a club with my friends, I'll proudly flash my pink IC to the ticket attendant or the bouncers at the doors. *all smiles
cheers to myself for turning 18(:
p.s I still am an elegant young woman in the making! just you look out for me!
p.p.s I'll upload my nicest+sweetest birthday photo as soon as possible!

"I'm an indefatigable optimist incapable of being fatigued".
why is that so? simple. cos I've got Jesus to pull me through this crazy, power-packed week yet manageable with Him by my side!
despite my business statistic class test where I was so nervous that when my friends were starting on their paper while I was still choosing which pen to use, spelled my name wrongly and gave my admission number a decimal place plus my graphs were zig- zaggy .(far from a smooth curve)
girl talkmy 2 girl friends and I were having a discussion outside the LT at 8+pm as we've finished our accounting paper yesterday and talked about whether we would like guys to pay for our shopping expenses. the answer, NO.
trust me, we girls think that spending our own money gives us a better spending power and a sense of independence.neither would we want to suck our boyfriend's wallet dry ( future) with our necessities, we're contented with him paying for our meals and transport(: of course we'll fine with going dutch later on in our relationship.
but for now, we're more than happy having the company of one another! there's no need to rush as good things will definitely come to those who wait. besides, given my busy schedule, ( thank God its only for a month, or else I might become a nun!) beauty sleep is what I really need.
of course we can always accept applications! the fact that I'm turning 19 soon, (18 seems to be nearer!) trust me, we're more than just a pretty face! so keep them coming!

Crazily busyas project deadlines are coming my away, along with my Japanese intermediate1 test awaiting for me to pass.. the list just goes on!
gone were the days I sleep before 11pm and waking up without an alarm clock is considered an indulgence. with the lack of sleep, budding pimples and black crescent under my eyes, I am so glad that I am not going through it alone(:
as humans, its natural of us to rely on our own self. only to realize that as the world starts to throw its weight on you, it can get pretty burdensome and deep inside me yearns for a pillar of strength to lean on.
and that person is Jesus! He's my ultimate source of strength and I learn (the hard way) that things does turn out for the better when I stop relying on my own strength and fretting, worrying.. instead what I should do is to trust in Him, knowing that everything is in His hands and the last thing I ought to do is, worry(:

make way for my curls!just to update you, I've permed my hair on 26th december, friday. ( digital perm, where they need not steam my hair. thank God!) there you have it. curly hair! gone are the days I need to comb my hair and fret over whether I should tie it or let it down. ( I can see the curious face of yours, wondering how I exactly look with curls, simple! just meet up with me and you'll see them!)
happy 2009!
2008 has certainly been an interesting and fruitful year for me as I have to adapt to poly life. initially it wasn't easy, projects, assignments and figuring out what to wear in the morning! not to mention getting a daily exposure to good looking people in business school.
I thank God for bringing me through. looking back, I wouldn't have gone through them if it weren't for Him! and for amazing friends He blessed me with! a wonderful class and gorgeous clique(:
as you know I have this daily war I'm waging inside of me, called self esteem and confidence. I used to shun away from good looking people and have a phobia of crowds, by God's grace I am now a confident young woman! (beautiful is in the making!) hahas.
to all the girls out there, you are beautiful! the last thing you are is fat! don't ever say that word. its a taboo! beauty is not solely based on a piece of cloth ( what you wear) or a weighing scale.
every time you look into the mirror, tell yourself , " hey gorgeous! looking right back at you!". don't forget to wink!
p.s I am 24 days shy from 18years old!!! boy am I excited(:
