137th day since I left home for Melbourne, I am done with my first semester at UMelb! Glad to have pulled through 'Introductory Econometrics' which I had considered the module that I could have easily failed.
今は冬休みから、母と姉が今メルボルンでいます。来週の月曜日シンガポールへ帰る。
Been hooked on 'The Voice Australia' and 'MasterChef Australia'... simply awesome shows... :) gotta think about how I should spend the rest of my winter holidays...
p.s. 3 more weeks to Semester 2... :x

Fiftieth Day in Melbourne
It's my fiftieth day in Melbourne... :o Easter break is coming in a week's time! :e
I would like it to be more of a break than a try-to-complete all assignments week... but I get the feeling I'll be trying to catch-up on school work & work on whatever remaining assignments left for the semester. 8|
Well, I knew what I was signing up myself for when I made the decision to further my studies.. so no complaints.. :D
学校の勉強は忙しいですけと、気持ちはいいよ。
The school term is progressing faster than I thought it would, getting mini shocks the start of every single week. haha. but it's been great thus far...
Signing off with a quote:
“Be thankful for what you have; you'll end up having more. If you concentrate on what you don't have, you will never, ever have enough”

Pre-Lunar New Year - Spring Cleaning
It's been quite a few years since I could stick around the house to help out with the annual spring cleaning.
Before every lunar new year, a typical Chinese family would spring-clean their houses... from wiping the lamps to ceiling lights, to the cleansing of the storerooms, to the windows... the refrigerator... etc.. etc.. the list could go on.
A yearly routine... to welcome a brand new year. (:
Just that there's 2 houses to clean this year: gonna be a house-maid for preggy sister tmr... -_- ah wellz.~ Cheers to a new year!

最後の日 2013
今日は今年の最後の日！
2013.. the year of ups and downs.. but nonetheless, a wonderful year. A quick summary of the highlights of the year:
January - February: Final Semester in Ngee Ann Poly
March: Sister Trip to Osaka! V6 OH!MY!GOODNESS! LIVE TOUR 2013 (29.03 & 31.03), Missed flight back for the first time.
April - Mid June: First Time Working in an Office Environment (2 months)
May: Graduated from NP!
June: Family Trip to Hokkaido & Tokyo!
Mid July - December: Worked with SSC (5.5 months)
Despite facing much rejections, dejection and perhaps even depression... I'm thankful things worked out towards the end of the year... & I know 2014 is going to be an even greater year, filled with many first times.
So, that's it. My year 2013 in a glimpse.
Enjoy & the last moments of 2013 & welcome the new year in a bit.
HAPPY NEW YEAR. & HELLO 2014!!! :e

Into the final month of 2013
& its December! A festive season of fun and gatherings is here again! :star
Started off the month with a day out, window shopping, in the city and bumped into dear Jole at Changi Airport, during dinner time! Its been a week or so since she had been back and we had arranged to meet along with the rest of 'PleasurePursuits' (NP final semester project mates) at the end of the year.. so, it was a great surprise! :e
Every iconic place in this little red dot is being fitted with Christmas decorations and it's such a pleasure to see.
