Okay, blog rehaul! And a slight update about my life.
Saturday, December 12, 2009 @ 3:35 AM

After reading the previous comment left by an anonymous person, I felt so moved that I have actually decided to continue writing in this blog which has been left stagnant for the past year.

So anonymous, whoever you are, thank you for your encouraging and inspiring comment. This is for you.

:)

Because my old template was expired, I had to choose a new one. Spent 3 freaking hours tweaking it to my preferences, eg. adding in a comment box and editing the line space, etc.

I can't believe I am actually good at HTML but maybe its because I'm used to doing this after blogging for close to 4 years.

The reason why I selected this template is because it is bright, clean and leaves me with enough space to voice out my thoughts with. It also has no distracting huge images or blingy signs, etc. Can't stand those.

And also, dearest friends!! Don't you think this is so me?!?!?!?!!?!

Anyway, I have no excuse to NOT update now, after all, because I have finished my A Levels and I am now at home everyday, doing nothing except researching about universities, updating my Twitter, watching Youtube tutorial videos, reading lolcatz and other random blogs.

Basically, I'm being an absolute bum and leading a life which other students would gladly trade with.

Initially, I thought I would love this moment but surprisingly I do not. I am bored to tears.

Maybe its the after-effects of rushed and enthusiastic studying but I suddenly feel so useless and worthless having nothing to do. Its a complete 180-degree change from what I was 3 weeks ago.

Thats why I will go search for work earlier than I have planned!

However I will start work only next year, after I return from my trip to Vietnam over the Christmas holidays. Yup, will be going there with my family.

I can't wait to visit Ho Chih Minh City, sit in a quaint french cafe and munch on toasted french baguette dipped into cafe sua da (ie. Vietnamese coffee).


Cafe sua da.

Btw, I have rather important and unfortunate (well, depends on whose point of view) news to update you all with.

*warning: this part will be emo, mushy and contain unnecessary bits*

To my dearest friends and readers,

Henry will be going overseas to study in Australia next year March. He will be in the University Of Melbourne. Yes, its only in a few months from now.

Basically he will be going on a 3 year course and he is taking Actuarial Science. A rather competitive course to get into but I had no doubts that he would get accepted as his results were stellar. I'm so proud of my boyfriend. :')

We have decided to continue our relationship though. Currently, we've been together for 2.5 years and I am really thankful for him and appreciate him even today. However, a long-distance relationship will no doubt be challenging as it requires much effort from both parties to keep the communication going.

He will visit me during his holidays or I may fly over during mine, whatever works out.

I cannot say that I do not have doubts about this at times and whether it will really work out, but we are both willing to try this out and give in our best effort. So I really appreciate this fact right now. And I know we can go through anything since we have been through a lot.

This will probably be our biggest challenge we have to face yet.

So I hope you can offer me your prayers and well-wishes. Hope everything goes well!

*end of emo and mushy part*

Yeah, anti-romanticists and love cynics, you may now throw your eggs and tomatoes at me.

Okay, anyway its really late now and I'm tired, going to retire for the day.
