Well, this is my first time attempting to create a blog, after so much persuasion, encouragement, begging etc. from my friends.(esp Wu Han) *winks. It suddenly dawned upon me that it's not that EASY after all. Almost forgotten all my HTML learnt in computer lessons in Sec 1 and 2. bleah... what a tough job it is! Anyway, just hope you people will like the layout I have put up! =)
Both my parents are in China now, today being the fourth day. I kind of miss them now, it's really a strange feeling not having parents by your side for approxmimately 1 week (8 days). The things you have to do... really, amounts to a lot. So, my dear papa and mama wrote notes of reminders alll over the house, sticking them at various "stations". An example of an A4 sized paper on the front door: "Safety first. Lock the gate. Lock the door. Beware of strangers in the lift." It's really nice of them to do up these notes (in a hurry) before they left... =)
My sisters and me went to the airport to send them off last Sunday. Took the MRT to Changi Airport and reached there at about 2.10 pm. hahhax... to the amazement of many (i suppose), it's my first time at Changi Airport. So... being so fasinated by the surroundings (glass windows, how to read the tv screen for your counter etc.), i kept asking questions... =) Just hope (crosses my fingers) Sin Yee Jie Jie, my cousin, wasn't too bothered by me.
The normal procedures went on... after so, we went down to the basement where a foodcourt is, and ordered some food/drinks. Let's see what we ordered:
Younger sis: Ice Kachang & Wanton noodles
Sis and me: Barley water
Pa and Ma did not eat as they will be served dinner on the plane, therefore they took on the role as audiences and watched us eat. The time for departure arrived...
Before going into the departure hall, Papa hugged all of us and gave us a LOUD smack on our heads. Mama gave us all a high-5! =) with our well-wishes, they went into the hall happily. We stood at the glass windows, continuously waving. Papa was the funniest of all, he kept waving at us until he couldn't be seen anymore. I know that both of them are v. worried about us... it's the first time we are on our own without them to guide us. Pa, Ma, I am sure we will do alright... =)
After that, we had our dinner @ Burger King in the airport.
Thanks to Sin Yee Jie Jie & Jie Fu (her going-to-be husband) for being our tour guides in the airport! Now, i am able to find my way around the airpot. =)
Independence, is the word, we will have to experience and feel this week. Nevertheless, life still goes on as per normal, only having stress added on. I am sure we can make it. My younger sis is the one pa, ma and i are most worried for. Her PSLE year, yet she is still feeling free and easy. Hope she will realise it soon... hiaz... buck up hor. Er Jie wants to dedicate her usual phrase to you AGAIN, "PSLE isn't as easy as you think".
Shall end off here... and do my homework. there's still CO practice (da zhu)in the afternoon, 2.30pm to 5pm. wish me good luck.
