Last Friday on the 29th May 2009 was my Graduation Ceremony. It was indeed a memorable & fun day. It's a once in a lifetime experience as it won't happen twice & it's not like everyday that we get to wear the ridiculous "Harry Potter Robe" haha. The worst part on that day is the freaking humid weather. I swear everyone is drenched with their sweats. I was in a mess as i was sweating like a pig haha. But it was still fun. I do feel sad leaving my Poly life but feeling glad at the same time as it has been one hell of a roller coaster ride full of stressful periods but i guess i have learned a lot & gain experience which i believe it somehow made me a better person. It wasn't easy juggling with schoolwork & working part-time at the same time. I was from a Normal Technical stream & a ITE background so it's kinda a disadvantage as i did not have a strong foundation & i really had a hard time coping and catching up with the rest as i was lacking back way too much. But thank god with patience, perseverance & friends guidance i was able to catch up. If you have been reading my blog from the past 3 years, i believe that you will come across post about school & all the stress i had to go through. But it's all over now & Im really thankful to all of my friends in Poly for all of their help. 3 years & i really thank god for pulling me through this journey. Alright enough of my crapping i will now let the pictures below do the talking.

A lesson in life...
Everything happens for a reason. Nothing happens by chance or by means of good or bad luck. Illness, injury, love, lost moments of true greatness and sheer stupidity all occur to test the limits of your soul. Without these small tests, if they be events, illnesses or relationships, life would be like a smoothly paved, straight, flat road to nowhere.
If someone hurts you, betrays you , or breaks you heart, forgive them. For they have helped you learn about trust and the importance of being cautious to who you open your heart to.
If someone loves you, love them back unconditionally, not only because they love you, but because they are teaching you to love and opening your heart and eyes to things you would have never seen or felt without them.
Make every day count. Appreciate every moment and take from it everything that you possibly can, for you may never be able to experience it again.
Talk to people you have never talked to before, and actually listen. Hold your head up because you have every right to. Tell yourself you are a great individual and believe in yourself, for if you don't believe in yourself, no one else will believe in you either.
You can make of your life anything you wish. Create your own life and then go out and live it.

I did something unexpectable today which is cooking. Not instant noodles or frying an egg but a real decent meal for my family haha. I made Spaghetti today. Im surprise with myself today as i never cook before in my entire life and im not sure what made me somehow want to cook for my family today haha. It was tiring considering i slept only 2 hours the night before and i had to go to the supermarket in the morning. It was pretty easy but the only part that i hate is cutting the bloody onions. It seriously irritated my eyes but other than that everything was kool. I added some minced meat, mushrooms, green peppers & onions. I added some parmesan cheese for garnishing as well to make it more tasty.
The judges were my parents and i was glad that they love it. My dad even had 2 huge rounds haha. Success indeed:). At least now i prove my sister wrong haha.

Last Sunday on the 26th of April 2009 i had a bbq outing with my JE friends at West Coast Park. We had so much fun and laughter and like the previous bbq which i had with them, it rain again! Now i have been labeled the "RAINMAN" haha. Why does it always have to rain when im organizing a bbq lol but we sure had fun getting wet. The best part is after the rain as the weather is so cooling and beautiful so i was really glad it rain:). There were tons of delicious food and we had more games to play this time. We played Monkey ball, Human Knot, big fish small fish & multiples of 3 which include water bombing punishment for the losers haha. Alright this will be a very long post due to the photos so i shall not elaborate any further and start with my story.
Ok in the morning, i met with my 3 soldiers helpers(Su Wei, Yau Hua & Ruiq Qi) at Woodlands MRT to fetch them to my home as i need them to carry all the stuff to the park. I didn't wanna bother the guys as they are living pretty far from my home place so i got those that were staying quite near. But not to worry, Popular girls may look small but trust me all of them have muscles due to carrying so much stock in work all the time haha. Went to NTUC to get 2 more bottles of drinks in case it wasn't enough and we went to Vista Point to get the waterbombs. After that we took a cab to the park.
Once we were there we clean up the pit area, pack the foods & started the fire. Yau Hua & Su Wei went to Mcdonalds to get some food for us as we haven't eaten a single thing. While i was starting up the fire, all of us heard a thunderstorm lol! A few minutes later my mum, Veron & Casey called telling me that their home area has already rain heavily but our pit area was still sunny but we can hear thunder storms. I kinda panic as history is repeating itself again! So i got Zhen Lin to bring some umbrellas from her home.
After a few hours, it started to rain so all of them move to the shelter to wait for it to stop. While waiting we chat & camwhore a little haha. We also played waterbomb haha.
After a while the rain stop thankfully it was just a short and small one. Casey, Nicole & Leit arrived and so the 2nd bbq session commences. While waiting for the food, some were busy catching flies and torturing them haha. They are really good i must say as they caught a lot haha. The pest control:Kevin,Zhenlin & Jun yi lol. Me, Boon Seng, Su Wei, Yau Hua, Rui Qi & Veron went to fill up the waterbombs. Since the toilet has this banner saying no taking out of water, me and Boon Seng went to the back where there's a small window at the toilet haha. So the girls will fill it up and pass it to us at the window haha! Crazy us:P. After that some of of us went to play monkey ball and soon after we call the rest to play human knot. It was loads of fun haha really hilarious. All i can say is LOL! :)
After playing the games, we went back to start eating the food. But before that we camwhore again haha.

We started eating the food. There were so much food! Casey even brought Cheesy Mussels, Corns, Stingray, Squid, Mash Potatoes, Salmon & her delicious spaghetti. Not to mention there was still chicken wings, satays, sausages & fishballs. Wide spread of delicious food. We were so bloated but there was still room for dessert which is bbq marshmallows. It was my first time bbqing it and wow it's really delicious. We even use them for our group photo taking LOL! Look at all of their faces lol! Hilarious.
Here's a short video clip. Casey sabo me twice lol!
After eating, we chill for a while and continue with our games! This time everyone joined in. We played Human Knot and we split into 2 teams. The team that completes the first will get to waterbomb the losing team. First round my team won but the 2nd round we lost haha. Check out the video at the top. Casey & Su Wei cheated lol but round 1 my team also cheated haha so it's fair. All for the name of fun:D.
Jian yong & Casey haha...
Us playing Big fish, Small Fish
Soon it was night time and we were still playing games. This time we played our all time favourite "Big Fish, Small Fish" & a new one Multiples of 3. Haha it was so fun so many blur people this time so they keep getting waterbomb lol. The most to get was Su wei haha. Pity her she totally got thrash on that day. Afternoon Boon Seng waterbomb her hair, during monkey ball Jian Yong accidentally kick the ball to her head & night time she keeps getting wet from the waterbombs haha.
After all the games, we went back to chill & eat again. We brought out a cake to celebrate Yau Hua belated Birthday & an advance birthday for Wendy. We slack, chat, joke around & eat till my stomach gonna explode any second haha. So it was around 10pm and soon we started to pack up, change into something dry and off we go.
