Yay! RenCi way exceeded its target! =)

Yes, the topic sounds childish, but hey, that's my normal behaviour isn't it?

Despite how I didn't really feel like being at home until after Chinese New Year this year, I simply had to rush back to watch tv today. It's Renci charity show tonight, and I so badly wanted to watch them meet their target. For a moment, the tv screen appeared as though they would miss it by some $200,000. But when the final tally came out, it was $7m! I so love financial freedom, even if my contribution is not worth even a speck of peanut. Happy! =)

A lot of things may change as we grow up, but certain things will still be once again the same, even if it took some detour along the way. Just like friends sitting down for a cup of coffee (and a cookie) and sharing your tears, fears and thoughts. Granted, it would have been great if the circumstance was happier, but I'm still glad you trust me enough to share your tears, just like when we were the 17 year-old gals year ago. Don't fret, like one of my favourite (and as usual, not-much-sense) belief, life is like a sine/cosine curve, when you get to the minimum point, you can't go anywhere but upwards.

Of course, friends are not just to share tears. One of the other happiest (well, at least to me) things in life is simply being able to celebrate your most important friends' birthdays. For eg. my favourite Mr Chan's (belated) birthday!

Seriously, I don't know whether I'm happier or you're happier. Haha.. But then, that's what I call relaxing. Being able to speak your mind, laugh, suan, "debate" etcetc.. Like I said, remind me to work super duper hard, so that I can be ultra successful, just so that I can buy you and my dearest Mr Tan dinner in Japan.. Haha.. Or flood VC with loads and loads of toys, right, Mr Chan? *grinz*

Speaking of speaking one's mind, can someone tell me whether I'm overly naive? After knowing Wanling for more than 10+ years and becoming relatively close during our sec 4 year, I found out only on Tuesday (much to Wanling's amusement) that she was only kidding when she said she had a brother. Reminds me so much of the NJCO days when I could never tell whether Sheng En's excuses for skipping practices were real or fake, much to my own exasperation. Seriously, am I that easy to bluff? Hmm... Now, I'm beginning to wonder if our classmates have really been pronouncing Yangzhong's name wrongly all these years...

Since we're at the topic of CO, I saw the above decor on my way to the train station on Friday. Add to the incessant playing of CO Chinese New Year music all around (the taxi I took to China Square yesterday too!!), I really do miss being a part of the CO playing those (noisy) Chinese New Year songs. Just as I've said to Cailing, I so feel like taking leave next next Friday, just to listen to a live performance of these songs.

Ok, I guess that more or less summarises my week. Have a more beautiful week ahead! =)

Oh yes, before I forget, WELCOME BACK, MR HO!!!! =) You've been missed! (Haha.. even if we meet up only like erm.. once a year?) But yes, it's great to have you back!
