New Year's eve

Okay so since I most likely won't be doing a post on New Years and be out the whole day, decided to do one now while I have the time hahah (actually no I don't cos got projs but ah well 10 mins can't hurt).

New Year's resolutions & wishes
1. To serve God more as an intern, and a vocalist if I get into MM as well. To let God use me to impact others' lives and let Him use me and stretch me for His name, glory and kingdom :)
2. To let it go.
3. To not care so much.
4. To get more courage and guts.
5. To lose weight until 52, my sec 2 weight and I was actually slim then lol. And also have a healthy diet like back in sec 2.
6. To work hard and get a good GPA for sem 1.2.
7. Improve my voice range and singing even more. To be able to reach higher than before and lower than before.
8. Get at least 6 hours of sleep everyday.
9. Don't think so much, don't overthink.

That's about it :)

2012



3rd post

Okay I know no one reads my blog but I'm just gonna do this okay. If you feel like there'll be a dedication to you in this post, go ahead and read :) Haha okay Idk I'm super lame and retarded.

Reflecting on the year 2012, it's been an awesome one.

Kicked off the year with working from Dec 2011 all the way until end of Feb 2012 and then began my real holidays where I just sat at home playing Sims 2 LOL, going out, doing nothing (zhuo bo) and lazing around all day long. Sleeping at 3am and waking up at 11am. Reading my favourite Sophie Kinsella books, borrowed from the library. Chilling and chillaxing at anywhere, everywhere, at any time cos I was just that carefree lol. Did meet-ups and going out just to have fun ahhahaha.

On 11 Jan (if I'm not wrong lol saw my last time blog post) received Os results. I tell you, I will never forget that day man. It was just so awesome and I really experienced a miracle from God first-hand! It's like God worked a miracle in me. Okay lah so I was expecting 18, maybe 16 at the most. Then after all the talks and blah and about how our school fared compared to national standards (in which I was actually quite pumped up cos for our cohort, CORE HISTORY HAD 100% PASS AND 75% DISTINCTION OMG AND I'M ONE OF THOSE DISTINCTIONS REALLY THANK GOD HAHHAHA. And I saw Mdm Chua looking very happy after they announced that. The group of us just cheered man whoo!! If I'm not wrong there were 14 of us? Hahha great job guys!! We really set the standards!! Even though the previous batch had 100% pass AND distinction BUT they only had 2 ppl HAH. Thank God for the core history batch, we really outdid ourselves once again hehehe ^^), one by one, I saw my classmates and other class ppl getting their results. As I observed the surroundings, saw many different emotions. Some ppl were laughing and jumping around, super elated. Some were crying and I just felt so sad and scared at the same time. I was thinking what if I didn't do well, what would happen if I failed and screwed it up terribly? LOL then the funniest thing happened. I saw Eunice go up and take her results, then the moment she turned back and flipped it open, she started screaming like mad for like 5 mins LOL. Then all the Drama ppl surrounded her and all congratulated her hahahah. LOL that was one super epic reaction I will never forget, and it's all part of this marvellous and awesome day!! :D Then a while after that, it was my turn to get it. Mr Kee was like, well done Cynthia, and he smiled a genuine smile. Then I like, wah serious ah, but still very scared. Then I turned behind and flipped it open. I couldn't believe my eyes oh my goodness. I remember I just ran to Dana and Yuqing and started screaming and crying at the same time. I was all like "I only got one C!! I ONLY GOT ONE C AND IT WAS FOR CHINESE OMG I ONLY GOT ONE C". Then they and Dayna who came running to hug me (thanks love) thought I did badly cos they couldn't hear what I was saying I think lol. After that I showed them my results, and they were like, chey you cry for what?! HAHAHAH. Idk I was just so happy and I really felt without God, I could never have done this, and I really just wanna give Him all the honour and glory :') After that saw my Choir juniors and they were all congratulating me and I just felt so awesome ahahha. It was with them that I opened my results for my L1R4 score and cried and screamed again LOL. Then I realised Eunice disappeared already LOL so I called her and we tallked abt our results, and my phone died halfway so had to go up to the hall again (cos I went downstairs alr) to borrow Dayna's phone to call her hahha. After that met Bro, Sharm and Elson with Dayna at hawker and went back to slack slack at my place lol. I'll never forget that day man, was really awesome :) Thank God for everything, all glory, praise, thanks and honour to Him!! :D

Applied for TP's BSG as first choice and got in, thank God :) It was at that point I regretted not going to SP, NP, or even SRJC. But after school started and all, I really thank God I went TP's BSG instead. Now that I know for sem 2-3 I'll be in Marketing, I'll never doubt God's decisions for my life again :) Thank Him for putting me into Marketing!!

Also, during the period where I was working regularly lol, I met 2 very awesome people and I call them my "baby"s hehehe. Cong Le and Kah Yen, the 2 Ralph Lauren girls!! :D



Me, CL and KY. Wah looks at CL's nails hahahahah. Love them to bits, and I really thank God I met them. It's amazing how we could stay such great friends up till now :) And now that KY accepted Christ too (Praise God!! :D), will be spending more time with her in church and cell heheh (Y) Though CL and I live very far away from each other, we still make time to meet up and I'm really glad for her to be in my life :)

Went to watch the very first musical I saw live in March.. WICKED!! And indeed, it was Wicked. It was a night I'll never forget. It was just simply amazing :) Caught it at MBS with Mum and Aunty Lynette :) Thanks Dad for sponsoring our tickets and for ferrying us there and back hahaha!! :)



Went to Sentosa on March with Eunice as well!! Lol it was a hot day but had fun man!!



March also meant smth to me and I'm sure, a lot of churchmates as well. It was the month we moved back to GEC, in our new building. We waved bye to PLMGSS and thanked them for letting us use their premises, and had our homecoming in GEC once again :)) Thank God for all His blessings unto the church :D



The then Zone 1 :) All our spastic faces hahahah!! Hahaha omg Li Wen, Xiuling and Anne's face hahahahah.

Of cos, in March also met up with the Sec sch girls for a picnic at Marina Barrage and at the same time celebrated dearest Gillian's belated bday heehe :) Great fun and laughter with these girls man!! Miss them :/



This lasted all the way until Poly started in late April. Before week 1, we had week 0 orientation. Came to orientation with Jiemin and we split into our different classes. And it was that day that my friendship with 5 other very awesome ppl began :)





Duo Yun, Laurencia, Yu Ting, Qian Wei, Joshua thanks for making my Year 1 in Poly a very enjoyable and awesome one, and I wish all of you the very best in your respective specialisations (QW you and I tgt ;)) and I hope we'll still be able to meet up and stay great friends :)) Thanks for listening to my problems and giving me advises that I really appreciate. Without some of your advises, I wouldn't have known what to do and I thank God for blessing me with you guys :)

Had fun with you guys as classmates and projectmates, and even though we're gonna be splitting classes next sem, just know that I'm always just a call/sms/whatsapp away, we'll remain friends!! :D

Also, love B1B20. Even though I'm not close to all of them, they made me change my mindset of Poly ppl positively, and I can't help but really like all of them as my classmates, and will be missing them when we go into our specialisations next year. They are a bunch of fun and loving people, and I thank God for them!!



Thank God for our careperson (cp), Mr Lum Fook Seng, and our tutors for their careful guidance and explanation of modules as well. Without them, I wouldn't have been able to cope with Poly life.

And in May, FINALLY met up with my lovely bestie for 17 years and counting, SARAH CHIANG LI WEN!! :D

It was also in May, on CCN day that my friendship with a very special and great friend began. BK, I really thank God for putting you in my life man. Thanks for always being there and always ready to give a listening ear. Thanks for advising me when problems come my way, and I really appreciate it all :) Wouldn't know what I'd do without you man. I'm always here too, and never worry about tmr, trust in what God says yeah :) And lol bumping into you in school is always nice, it's nice to see church people in school hahahaha. Let's work to make an impact in our cell and in Zone B, I'm sure God has smth big in store for us all!! :D

Yining and Xiuling have seen me grow and advised and grew and encouraged me to who I am today, I'll never forget what they did in my life :) And even though I only knew Anne in Dec 2011 through the Christmas carolling with Go Community and she stepped down from tertiary to help with the then Zone 1, she has always been there and have been advising and encouraging me and I feel I've really matured this year :)

Love the 3 of them, and will miss them!! Thank God for them, they've been a blessing to all of us :)

I love the 2 of you sooo much. The definition of best friend lies in the 2 of them. Words cannot express how I feel about the 2 of you (wah like confession HAHA) and I really thank God for placing you 2 in my life :') Without you 2, I wouldn't know what to do in life whenever I face problems, and I know we're still gonna be there for each other even as we grow up and grow old :D

Then came Christmas in December!! The day our Saviour was born into the world, thank God for the greatest gift ever :') Love You Jesus Lord, and I know You will always be there for me, no matter what. I know You love me, and I love You too. Thank You for accepting all of us and loving all of us so much, You are really indescribable. You're amazing and awesome Lord, thank You for everything :) I'm gonna trust everything to You Lord :D Once again, thank You for Your love :')

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Also, I would like to dedicate this section of the post to someone very special to me. He is the nicest, kindest, and really awesome person that God had blessed me with this year. At around mid-year to August I got to know him? I can't really remember exactly when lol but it was around that time. He has been such a great blessing in my life and there are many things I would like to say to him but don't know how. So I'm gonna post it here. Y, if you ever see this, I'm sorry that I can't say it to you in person, cos after all, it's all over and I'm sure we don't wanna make it awkward by me bringing up this topic.. And after all, you're still a good friend to me, and so I wanna thank you for everything too by posting here :)

Dearest Y,

If you see this, just wanna let you know that the times we spent together was one of the greatest times this year. Thank you for always being there for me and listening to my troubles, thanks for encouraging me when I'm down, thanks for advising me and praying for me even though you've got a fair share of troubles yourself too. I really appreciate everything you've done for me :) And yes I got your little hints here and there when we met up and went out too lol. I too felt it was going too fast, and you don't have to apologise for it cos even though it didn't work out, I enjoyed every single bit of the times spent with you and I'm glad we stayed friends in the end :)

I too did not expect things to turn out this way, cos I thought that a person like me would never have had a chance with someone to begin with. But God had a plan and purpose, and I think He was increasing my self-esteem lol. And it just happened, and it seemed like it was such a short period that everything happened haha. Anyways, you should know too that we're not ready yet, and that God makes everything beautiful in His time. Continue to trust in God and put your plans in His hands, allowing Him to guide your path. With God, nothing can go wrong, and I totally agree with you that God's plan is the best :) I've always been amazed how much faith you have in God, and rmb that day, we both felt that God was telling us to put Him first too, and when we really put Him first, then we can build a relationship on the rock that is Jesus Christ. God is not done with us, He's still moulding us. Continue to trust God to take you to greater heights, and grow deeper in love with Him everyday :)

Don't feel bad, this isn't anyone's fault to begin with :) Just know that I'm glad that you had enjoyed yourself, and I did too. And remember that we both learnt smth from this. Right now all we need to do is just trust God to take us to where we need to be. And remember that illustration you showed me that day? Idk but we just really need to have faith and trust God. 5 years later, we'll see, and a lot can happen in these 5 years. Don't get discouraged if things don't turn out the way you want them to, cos God is in control of everything. He wants the best for you :) Wait until the time is right, be your best, and the right person will come along.

Anyways, to sum up everything, it was enchanting to meet you, and to still have you as a friend is amazing, cos you're one of the nicest, kindest and awesomest person I have ever met and I thank God for putting you in my life. I really appreciate having you in my life, and even though it won't be the same as last time, just know that you've always got a friend in me. Always just a call/whatsapp/text away man.

I've said it before and I'll say it again. Time spent with you was one of the greatest and best times I've ever had this year.

I'm sorry for being so rude to you and sometimes taking things out on you.. I don't mean it and really truly regret my actions. I know sometimes I've been hurtful, and I'm sorry I take out my emotional unstability times on you :( Thanks for being so kind and understanding and forgiving me whenever I do these kind of things.. Even though I don't show it and always ask you to shut up and diam lol, I want you to know that no matter what happens, I'll be here for you as a friend. We'll still continue to stay as friends, and I wanna wish you all the best in your future, and never give up hope alright? Jiayou, I have faith and I believe that you can do it :)

Let it go and hold on to it no more. Seek God first, and everything else will come to place :) Never regret a God-driven decision, and just know that God wants the best for us :)

God hears and He sees, and you are not alone in your struggles. Remain firm and stable for God has your deliverance planned. -Joyce Meyer
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Today marks 5 more days to 2013, and I all I can say is thank God for this amazing and wonderful year.  He has really blessed me and many others greatly this year :) Thank You for all the moments, good or bad, joyful or mournful, I thank You for all of them. Thank You for all the lessons You taught me this year, and I pray for a new me next year. I pray for all enviousness, jealousy and obsession to be gone even as I enter into this new year. I pray for a better me to bless and make an impact in others' lives as an intern, use me so greatly and mightily for Your purposes Lord. Love You so much, and thank You for everything :D


2 Chronicles 7:14

New International Version (NIV)
14 if my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land.

Perth, Western Australia (WA) 17-23 Dec 2012 trip

2nd post. 3rd post I shall continue sometime before the year 2012 ends, cos it'll be a reflection of 2012, and it's too late and I'm too tired to do it now lol.

Perth, WA, 17-23 Dec 2012. This is definitely one of the holidays I will never forget, for life.
Never before have I felt so comfortable in a foreign country that I hadn't been to in almost a decade (the last time I went to Australia was when I was P1/P2 lol, we went Gold Coast).
Learnt a lot of things there, got exposed to a different culture, and have this longing to go back there and just stay there forever, if I had the money of cos lol.
Perth has made an impact in my life, and I really enjoy this holiday. Wish it could be longer, or for a lifetime preferably? HAHAH. Anyways it's kinda good to be back too. Singapore is where I belong after all.

It was in Perth that I got my first tan line and became chao ta lol. My skin isn't silken tofu anymore but dry, takes a while to become back to silken tofu and get used to the humidity in Singapore already hahaha.
It was in Perth that I realised so many things about myself that needed changes. Did some self-reflection with the help of my Uncle who planned this whole trip love you Uncle Eric thanks so much for planning this awesome trip!! When I came back Singapore, I decided to start anew, start afresh, with the help of a very good friend/bro of mine who pulled me back to earth and made me realise how pissy, easily frustrated and unpleasant I've become ever since entering into  Leave the past behind. Let it go, hold on to it no more, and move on.

Anyways let's start on the commentary of the trip :)

Day 0 - 16 Dec Sunday (Not included cos my flight is a midnight flight but whatever I'm just gonna post the details of the time in the airport LOL)

Sending my goodbye msgs and calls at home, before leaving, and also in the airport haha.
We had to reach airport T1 by 9.15pm and after that, went to check in our luggages. Mummy and I shared a damn dua luggage, Daddy took a medium sized one, and Bro took a small one. The rest of us had our own luggage :)

Saw this cool kinetic rain thingy at T1.

After checking in, went into the duty free area and stayed 2 hours inside there, makan-ing some snacks (soft-boiled eggs, toasts, bandung lol) and shopped a bit, and took pictures. Went to wait for the boarding of the flight, and finally after 2 hours went into the plane, and it took off at about 11.35-11.45pm?
We took Qantas airline, and I realised they have a lot more air stewards than air stewardesses.

Day 1 - 17 Dec Monday

In the plane, enjoying the adrenaline rush of the plane going into the air. Watched Ted and food came at around 12midnight plus-1am. Took Curry Chicken with potato salad, hard roll bread and mango sago pudding. Drank orange juice. Aunty Lynette gave me her pork in her ee fu noodles and I gave her some of my curry chicken. Shared with Daddy Mummy's mango sago pudding and took some of Aunty Lynette's salad LOL I'm such a pig.
Tried to sleep after watched Ted finished but apparently some ppl in the plane dk what's called sleep. I can see the bright screens lol. But I managed to fall asleep for 1 hour plus maybe? Though I'm kind of convinced I only slept 1 hour lol. And Mum took a pic of me sleeping with my mouth open -_-

Touched down at Perth at 4plus am. Immigration, luggages done, waited at the airport for Stephen, our transportation guy to come at 6.30am. Decided to take some photos while waiting. Saw an awesome lighted Christmas tree and took pics, bought some very expensive water (omg water there is so ex), and went outside to feel the coolness of the morning. Lo and behold, the sun was already risen at that timing lol. Cos it's summer there, so long days and short nights. The sun rises early and sets late. It's cold in the morning and night, but afternoon is hot. Lots of huge annoying flies around that flies to your face lol one almost went into my mouth thank God it only got to my lips. In the city it's alright, not a lot of flies, but in the countryside there's a lot. Under shelter is cooling cos of the wind, but under the sun it's hot in the afternoon. But the first few days we were there, it was cooling the whole day lol thank God we brought our jackets and sweaters. But mid-trip started to get real hot.

Okay so went outside the airport to feel the coolness and took pics. Went back in, waited a while, and Stephen came. He owns a company, Westside Private Charters, and if you ever wanna go Perth, check it out. It's really good and he really caters to all our needs. Thank God for Stephen during our trip, really nice person and very courteous. Thanks Stephen for bringing us around man!! Really appreciate your thoughtfulness :)

We went to Kings Park and saw the awesome view of the swan lake and CBD skyline of Perth there, took pics, and walked around and visited a war monument.

Then we went to the apartment we were gonna stay at for a week, Verandah apartments, 84 Fitzgerald Street.



I was like wow-ing and ooh-ing and ahh-ing when we reached the apartment. It's like a mansionette with 3 bedrooms (upstairs 1 [Uncle Eric, Rech, Bro], downstairs 2 [Aunty Lynette, Grandpa, Uncle Lawrence] [Mummy, Daddy, me]), 2 bathrooms (should give more), 2 sitting areas with tv (one upstairs one downstairs), a balcony with seats and table, as well as bbq equipment, and a very nice kitchen area with a bar concept.

Awesome place, I got quite attached to this place lol felt like it was home cos it was so cosy. Nice apartment.

Okay then washed up and slept from 12pm-3pm lol. And woke up realising my sleeping pic got taken by Bro -_- Cos I was the last to wake up LOL. Ate lunch, fried beehoon with luncheon meat.


Then took a Blue CAT (Central Area Transit, a bus system in certain streets with certain different colours [there's blue, yellow and red if I'm not wrong lol], and it's free!!) to tour around Perth and just sightsee. And the system is really good, they tell you how many mins more to the next CAT coming, and on the bus they have a sign to show you which is your next destination, and there's even a map there of all the different colours of CAT's route. Really good system, and the frequency of the CAT is 5 mins on weekdays, and 15 mins on weekends.

Then took a walk to Chinatown, around 10 mins walk away from the apartment cos it's near. I was staying near Chinatown so that's why I ate more Asian than Western food there LOL. It was nice and cooling, and had a nice walk, took pics, and ate at a food court called Old Shanghai there. The food there is super ex omg one Japanese salmon teriyaki set $14 plus Aussie dollars. At least got 3 salmon fillets, a huge salad which I so badly needed and rice and miso soup. Not bad, quite nice :)

Went back to the apartment and slept lol. Oh yah during this trip we all slept very early, like around 9plus-10pm. The latest I slept was 10plus nearing 11pm. But woke up early too of cos haha.

Day 2 - 18 Dec Tuesday

Stephen picked us up and drove to Caversham Wildlife Park. Fed kangaroos, took pics and felt the furry legs of the wombat, and took more pics as we had 1 hour of guided tour there. Loved the dingo and other native Australian animals :) Had a great time there though the flies were a tad annoying.



The kangaroos damn cute one lol when you bend down and feed them, they will take one pallet of food and then put their paws on your hand to say like they wanna chope these food LOL.



Then, went to a chocolate factory and bought a small pack of dark chocolates for $4.95 Aussie dollars back lol. Dad bought white and milk chocolates. They had free tasting I took a a considerable amount of each 3 flavours LOL.

Bro and I posing with the sample bowl. HUGE BOWLS OF MILK, DARK AND WHITE CHOCOLATE YUM.

Then went to an ice-cream outlet, shared some fruit (cant remember which fruit/fruits lol) yoghurt ice cream with Bro. Mum and I went crazy by the cute display outside the shop and the flowers which bloomed.
The ice cream was awesome :)




After that, drove to Seabird, a town, and stopped for some Fish & Chips yummm :) The Fish & Chips there is really good, the fries are fat and thick and stuffed with potato and really awesome, and the fish is super fresh yummm!!
Took pics there too cos the scenery of the sea was just too awesome.










Then drove to The Pinnacles, one of my most fav places there. The scenery is really super awesome and even though it's a desert, it's near the coast so it was real windy and good at the expense of my hair flipping all about LOL. Thank God for holding the rain cos when we just got there, it was drizzling but when we walked to the desert area, it stopped miraculously. Thank You Lord :)

The Pinnacles was great, and the rocks had so many different shapes and it was just so natural and great and awesome.




Then drove to Chinatown and ate char siew and duck rice (Stephen's recommendation, really awesome!!) to takeaway and drove to Cottlesloe Beach to watch the sunset. It was super cold and the sea breeze was blowing our minds away but thank God we managed to snap good shots of the awesome sunset and find a warm place to eat our food.


Then drove to Kings Park and snapped pics of the night city skyline.
Me and Aunty Lynette here haha. Was super scared of the heights so was grasping onto the handle LOL.

Drove back to the apartment, wash up, slept.

Weather forecast : 35%

Totally chao ta and burnt that day. That was the day I got the super ugly tan line on my feet lol.

We drove to Wave Rock. A 4 hour journey there, and another 4 back. Thanks Stephen, it was tiring man!!
Had breaks in between the journeys.


Reached Wave Rock, was flacking hot, and Dad got us little branches to help fend away the flies (omg the flies were esp a lot here cos we went further inland alr), and Stephen got us nettings to put on our heads lololol it was good and effective in fending away the flies man thanks!

Climbed up the rock too, was awesome!! Kudos to Mum to go all the way up!! :D (Y)


On top alr!! Me with my weapons in fighting the damn flies. Branches and netting.
Okay and I look super retarded with this pic below lol.












Then took a short drive to the Hippo Yawn, a rock which resembles a hippo yawning lol.



Then headed back, stopped for some grocery shopping at a town and also lunch (burgers in the car, the burgers were huge but I finished one all by myself LOL hungry). Thanks Uncle Eric for buying them :)

Stopped at like where it seems to be in the middle of nowhere (farmland maybe?) lol and tried to take pics w the sheep, but they zhao damn fast once they saw us near the fence -_-

Went to Chinatown to eat at Saigon, a Vietnamese restaurant, food and chilli were awesome :)

Day 5 - 21 Dec Friday

Went to the Frementle War Monument



Drove to E-Shed Markets and shopped there and bought a lot of stuff, as well as ate lunch there. Wah the cai fan person was so @#W$#$!!, she told me no overstacking of food, if not there will be additional charges. But the thing is, as long as you pile everything on the plate, it's fine. Maybe cos I dropped a few pieces of pork :( But I was sharing w my Mum and Dad and trying to save money at the same time lah!! >:( Meh!!

Walked past/over a railway to take a CAT, first time experience, was awesome :)


Then took a CAT (can't remember what colour it was) to Frementle Markets, awesome place. Too bad we only could spend 1 hour there :(

Visited souvenir shops otw back (we walked back to E-Shed Markets) and saw this advert

This is a property company IF I'M NOT WRONG.






























Omg hilarious laughed like mad.

Went back to E-Shed Markets and Stephen came with his cute little 2 years old boy, Will!! :)
The little precious was the center of attention the rest of the time he was with us. Soooooo cute :)))

Then we went back to the apartment and put all our stuff down, took some pics with Will and went for dinner at a HK steamboat restaurant in Chinatown. Steamboat buffet was filling but awesome.

Washed up, slept.
