Hey peeps!! Its 2005!! Happy New Year! Well, i can't help being excited for 2005, cos i believe that everything's gonna be better, and aye okay! I've made some really wonderful bunch of friends, not that i didn't know them earlier, but i guess its especially during the festive seasons when we spend it together that draws the whole group closer. I've said it before, and i'm gonna say it again, i feel tat we make a great group, okie...yes i meant the 41st group of army guys and the 41st wives club. =D

New Year celebrations this time round, was kinda last minute as we were all too busy to plan of something... finally we panicked and decided on STEAMBOAT @ one of their houses. Yes..i had countless steamboats since christmas...haha...but my first with them. Well... the guys proved to be really hardworking, they were the ones who took charge of buying all the food and drinks, and even the preparation! Like marinating the meat, cutting and washing the vegetables, peeling the shells off the quail eggs, preparing the soup base...steaming the rice... All i can say is...the gals were left speechless! But in anyways, we decided to sit back and relax....look pretty...hmmm...maybe helped by scooping out the rice and preparing the utensils... and finally helped by eating! *LOL*

It was a good laughing session, complete with loads of silly actions the guys did and the things they said....coupled with lots of distruptions due to the automatic timers they set with their digi cams, where we all had to do a megawitt smile even with bits of food in our mouths! We played games, and had to eat up watever remnants of the food left as forfeit...dipped in chilli balachan. Thank God! I didn't need to eat any of those...cos Bong ended up eating for me, haha!

Did i mention that they guys ended up doing the cleaning up as well??? Oh and that includes mopping the floor of the kitchen! muahaha! But tat's good training for them (come on, nod your head together with me now!)! Oh yeah, the highlight of the day was, we literally drove into the year 2005 as we made our way to the Padang, cos we did the countdown in 2 cars. With the help of the loudspeaker function in our phones. This is probably gonna stay in my memory for as long as i live.

Everywhere was really crowded, we had difficulties finding a place to sit and chat. But we were real lucky as there was ONE table with some chairs outside the closed Marina Square MacDonalds! Talked till3am, and decided to head home.

I really had fun! It was not partying in big scale, as in like going to sentosa to do the countdown. In fact, i would choose this over sentosa. Cos its the opportunity that i have to really get to know everyone.

Alrite, new year resolutions in no particular order:
1. Good results for my studies
2. Lower down my freaking cholestrol (although results have shown tat it has dipped! Yay!)
3. More and better friends
4. Stronger relationship with Bong of cos
5. Safety of my loved ones and better health
6. A better job that is of my interest in HR
