HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE :D

2007 was a year with drastic changes....change in environment, school, friends, social circles....etc...
What people say about Tokyo is true, everything passes too quickly.
I have to do something every minute, every second.

I had to adjust myself to blend in to the new environment, so I didn't manage to do the things that I really wanted to do. SO for 2008, i hope to manage my time more efficiently, coping with my studies, work and circle(magic).

I'll not be going for the SILS one year studying abroad program partly because of financial reasons, but also because I wanted to get a proper foundation in Japan. I feel that my Japanese is still incomplete so perhaps I can take more courses from the Open Education Centre, learning a variety of things, and taking part in student activities(since i'm in waseda).

Okay, I guess that'll be my new year resolution..

I went back to CJC today!!!! OMG, ORIENTATION GOING ON THERE!!!!
and I'm a J4...I feel so old :s
I got to meet the J3s who went back to help out, and some J5s like Firmin, Kai Pin and Oliver.
Had a chit chat with Mr Yee and Mr Melvin Ho outside the staffroom, and with Mr Lyncoln Lee in the staffroom. Met Mrs Toh, Mr Goh, Mr Balaji, Mr Bernard Yeong, Mrs Sandra Tan whom really helped me during "A" Levels.
And of course the council teachers like Mr and Mrs Leong, Mr Tan JS, Ms Giam and Ms Soong...etc...Not forgetting the librarian and the auntie from the Yong Tau Foo store.
Surprising that she still remembers me...telling me that my eyes looks Japanese.. haha.
Glad the J2 facils like the snacks that I bought for them( Country ma'am is the best teatime snack!!!!!)

I miss life in CJC, I really do.
I understand life has to go on, but I was talking to Firmin about how I miss the times when I was under him during orientation 01:05. And of course spending my time with my class and in the council.

That is why I like coming back to CJC sometimes, reminds me the events and the people that made what I am now.

why can't you? Wednesday, January 02, 2008
