Kay God bless, take care & byeeeeeeeeeeeee :)

Kay its like 11.56AM and I have tuition tomorrow but I dont feel like sleeping..have gotten most of the photos..so here goes.. (more than 300 photos)

Wait. Please note that not all photos will be posted cause they are available in other blogs. You can refer to Carine's blog for a start. :)

1ST DAY
In the airport..


(My grandmummy doesnt like taking photos..the 2nd one was taken when she wasn't noticing XD)









Our national flower :D:D

IN TAIWAN!! (taken from the inside of the bus)

This photo tells you that we reached our destination already :D It generally speaks for the whole of TaiWan. I said generally so don't sue me. :D Everything there is in Chinese!! Everywhere you go, you'll definitely spot gigantic Chinese characters staring right back at you and sometimes you get a bit confused cause TaiWan is like the only place in the entire world that still uses Traditional Chinese. By the way, you can recognise the chinese character in the photo because the simplified chinese word for "slow down" is written the same way as it is for traditional chinese. So yea. :)


The haze/fog that caused most of us to catch the flu bug. ):


The very pretty blue (and furry) decorations on the curtains in the bus :D:D

1st stop..the Porcelain Museum :D



I like the colours of these pebbles..thus the close up. :D

This photo really doesnt do justice to the enormous porcelain plate..the vivid colours were not captured properly..oh well.



2nd stop..the old street.. (:





In the bus


2. Artistic eh? Lol.

After dinner..

1. The view from where I was at the DIY place. Lol.
2 & 3. Saw these ducks while we were writing our wishes on the sky lanterns :)


Releasing our lantern!! :D

After the release..


1. The beautiful effect created from the reflection of the moonlight on the bubbles (there was a bubble machine churning out thousands of bubbles)..looks like the moonlight casted on the ground right? So cool :D
2. CLICKITY!! THE BUBBLES!! Woohoooo I was standing in the middle of the pretty bubbles..and the feeling was like..wonderful! Lol.
3. The bubbles that landed on the ground..you see the glistening little specks? They are mini bubbles! :)


In the farm's hotel..it was really unexpected! I thought we would be sleeping in like some cottage but no!! It really look and felt like a hotel :D

Kay 1st day's photos done..I think I'll do the rest umm next weekend..Next Sunday. I promise. Gonna be busy all the way..jiayou Sandra!

And I realised that I wasn't afraid of flashlights coming from cameras anymore during those 7 days!! Not sure about flashlights coming from other sources..anyway that's a great thing!! Lol cause I had (or do I still do?) astigmatigsm which makes my eyes extremely sensitive to flashlights..in any case, I shall believe that that condition of mine had been healed by the great Healer of all time :D Praise Him! :D:D

I decided. "Forever love" shall be the song playing during my wedding..when all the guests are eating..not to replace the "tehn tehn tehn tehn" la. Lol until I find a better song..umm yea. Putting it here so I can remember.. :D

God bless, take care & byeeeeeeeeeeeee :)

486. normal (good)

Hello people! Just heard the tune of a Christmas song..and I felt the Christmas mood! Woohoo just like you always feel the CNY mood when you hear a CNY song..hahaa! Just realised I am indeed more excited about someone else's birthday than my own (And Raymond Lam's), LOL..YAY Jesus' birthday is coming!! YAYAYAYAY. Oh I feel like dancing.. XD

Uhhhh I think I'll do the posting of photos tomorrow..almost 300..If a picture tells a thousand stories you will be reading 300,000 stories tomorrow..cool! Lol. Excited about receiving my report next week..it will tell me what kind of thinker I am..yup :D

Um half od me is noe feeling myself today. This morning, all of me didnt feel myself. So I guess I was experiencing the withdrawal symptoms of not going to school for a week. Okay 5 days if you must have it specifically..haha! :)

Did some online shopping last night..or was it the night before..lol anyway yay my confirmation email has arrived! My first time shopping online!! Hahaha. Having tuition tomorrow..havent been to the tuition centre in a long time..hmmm. And church the day after! OH YA! Just remembered about going to dad's place tonight. Shucks shucks shucks. Howwwww I dont want to skip another tuition lesson..kay shall settle it later..

Oh speaking about church I missed church! Last Sunday I felt particularly joyful while in Taiwan..its probably a habit for me to feel great on Sundays..Lol ..kay I think I'll shower than take a nap after this..so God bless, take care & byeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee! :)

P.S: I wonder who has uploaded the photos taken in Taiwan..hmmm.. (:

OMGOSH HOW COULD I FORGET. REMEMBER THAT ULCER THAT I MENTIONED IN THE PREVIOUS POST? YEA ITS STILL NOT WELL..but its a lot better than before..yea 7 days and the ulcer still wants to stay there -.- Oh um and my flu didnt get well too but I feel okay la :D:D:D Thank God thank God thank God I pray I'll get COMPLETELY well ASAP :D BYEEEEEEEEE. XD
[/Edit]

Heyyyyyy I'm back :) Notice that it isn't a ":D"? Lol TaiWan was great but I realised that the country I most desire to go to is Paris. Perhaps, after I get a stable job..and everything..and I feel like taking a little break..going alone will be alright..maybe a partner will be better..haha!!

Okay I took a lot of photos..felt like posting something first so yea..a lot of photos are with the rest..yup..so for the whole "story", I need the photos in their cameras as well (Hint hint! XD) ..which means the WLM server is going to get real busy..lots of sending and transferring here and there..lol. Which also means that there will be no photos here until I receive the photos I need for the whole story (: (So send to me ASAP if you want to see photos..! :D)

By the way..I want to try the ancient Chinese costume..you know 还珠格格？Yea that kind of costume before I leave earth :D Wait..[finds photo]



Yayyyyyy something like that. Okay its like that. Lol. My eyes hurt a little. I slept a lot on the plane but I still feel a bit tired. My left shoulder hurts terribly when I carry my backpack for a long time..hmmm.

Aiyoooo a lot of homework to do/catch up on..kay jiayou Sandra! =D I MISSED SINGAPORE A WHOLE LOT. I missed school. That's an ambiguous sentence and I meant both meanings. Hahaha!

A lot of things to do. Seriously. Like shopping. Kay you look back. That's weird. You don't normally hear it coming from me. Lol. Shopping cause while in Taiwan I realised I like Singapore stuff a lot better. :D:D So i didnt spend a lot there. In fact I think I'm the one who spent the least there. Lol. Soooooo I'm going to look for the money changer. My mum is going to look for him/her actually. Lol then buy stuff to compensate for the very little things I bought there. :) I want shoes. Wow thats rare too. Lol.

SEE SINGAPORE IS THE BEST, REALLY. DON'T GO OVERSEAS UNLESS YOURE GOING TO PARIS/HONGKONG TO SEE RAYMONDLAM. HAHAHA! Oh my tour guide was superb. Random! :)

Okay guess that's about all..thank God I'm safe and sound at home now and that He healed me when I felt terrible..whether inside or outside.. :) Oh I saw shuai ges. Lol God bless, take care and byeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee! <3 (:

484. highhhh

YAYYYYYY I'm flying off to TAIWAN tomorrowwwwww. Lol. I dont think I can blog anytime during the trip..hmm anyway I feel a lot better, praise God! Didn't go to school yesterday..lol I didnt get the shuteye I was supposed to have..I actually disobeyed my body's calling for rest. =X So I stayed home and rested A LOT. By that I meant I slept till 1plus. PM. LOL.

Thank God the Chinese O level paper is over..oh yay!! Uh I know I made mistakes for for sections of Paper 1 =x but lol what's done can't be undone. Okay so no more CH8 shows at 7pm and 9pm until the 7th, no more blogging, no more chatting online..never mind its a whole new experience for me..its going to be wonderfulllll! LOL


Uh my lunch (yes lunch. Its going to be 4..I know..lol) is right in front of me but I'm not really hungry and the bowl is still pretty full. I took a few mouthfuls only. Supposed to eat the medicines but mesh I need to finish my lunch.

I'm supposed to call my grandparents early in the morning to tell them I'm leaving Singapore -.- They already know I'm leaving right? Lol. Hmmmmmmm. Josephine said we have to do double the research cause we're are not going to participate in the debates (going to TaiWan) and the marks will make up part of our English CA1 next year so yea.

Ack I feel weird now. Like a tinge of uneasiness. Go awayyyyy! Oh thank God we'll be donning long trousers in Taiwan. Shacks was it dengue fever? Cause I have some mosquito bites on my leg..and..oh no! Lol I hope it wasn't. Long pants and sleeves = no one will see my peeling skin :D woohoo.

There's an ulcer at the back of my mouth..irritating! Mesh..packing of luggage almost done..okay I should publish this..I still dont feel very hungry =X

God bless, take care & byeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee :)

483. normal (good)

Feeling a bit tired now actually. Realised I fall sick more often (once every month) ever since the August episode. Just published the draft I saved yesterday. (I didnt abandon this blog la, lol) Its very bland cause I wasnt really in the blogging mood. Back to the "being sick" topic. Yea so I'm having a sore throat now..thank God for the progressive healing throughout today (:

I think I'll go take a bath then get some shuteye after this or I will probably not be able to attend school tomorrow (I need prayers!) which is bad cause the O level Chinese paper is just the day after tomorrow so MsC might want to go through some important points or whatsoever. Must get well ASAP!! So that I can enjoy Taiwan to the fullest =D

Wrote a draft for that 1500 (or is it 1200) word Commonwealth essay. The word count is 568 which is farrrrrr from the required number =x But never mind its only a draft..haha!

Guess that's all, going to have dinner now..God bless, take care & byeeeeeeeeeeeeee :)

482. normal (good)

The greatest love that anyone could ever know
That overcame the cross and grave to find my soul
And till I see You face to face and grace amazing takes me home
I'll trust in You

Helloooo :) I'm quite bored right now..even though there are things for me to do..like homework..lol. Hmmm talking to HM online and in MsC's blog for the answers to the chinese homework.

Don't feel like blogging so God bless, take care & byeeeeeeeeee (:

I will live to love You
I will live to bring You praise
I will live a child in awe of You

481. jubilant

XD So hyped up..so hyped up..about everything woohoo woohoo. Loads of events to look forward to. JY didnt come today..we missed you! :D Take care of your back! Well..went to the MRL after school today cause there was a librarian's meeting. Seemed like I havent been there in ages..felt (weirdly) but pretty good to be back there..ahaha! I'll miss being a librarian when I graduate! (:

This morning..I saw two familiar faces in the train..a middle-aged father and his preschooler girl. The 1st time I saw them I took notice of them cause the father was specially attentive and loving towards his child. And this morning was no different. However, a few kind souls gave their seats to the pair. I expected the dad to sit down with his daughter but he didn't. Instead, he stood in front of her and looked at her. Her joy of having a place to sit became his joy and there they were, father and daughter smiling away.

I guess he might have been so engrossed in looking at his child that he forgot to sit down..how sweet :) But he probably realised he should be sitting down as well because the next time I saw them, the little girl's head was lying on her dad's arm, sleeping soundly and the dad was holding her tenderly. This reminded me of God's love for us..hahahh :) To see something so wonderful like that happen in the morning really warms your heart and makes you feel great all day long :D

You know..if the above story is rephrased it will look like a Chinese comprehension passage, complete with the author's take and what he/she understood from the whole thing. Haha! Maybe I should convert it into one huh? Then some teacher will chance upon the passage and use it in the exams O.O And I'd love doing that paper..lolol!

Okay that's all..God bless, take care & byeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee :)

480. normal (good)

I feel good, ta na na na na..so good~

Haha! Okay so remember that post in which I talked about hoping to see baby chicks in Taiwan? Guess what..we will be!! The guy who briefed us after school today showed us the photos..ahhh I can't wait :D:D

Oh and I know how 九份 (the name) came about already..it means nine portions in chinese. Long ago, only nine families lived there. Nine families = nine portions. Makes sense..so yea..haha! It is said that the locals there are really friendly! YAYAY spectacular nature almost everywhere in Taiwan!!

Waking up at 5am on that day. The Olevel Chinese is nearing..jiayou! MrsJanLim told us (the people going to Taiwan) to take the SS test this Friday, after the EOY service..oh mesh! Oh well..we have to get at least a B3 for it..jiayou too! And there's another English assignment..the commonwealth essay. Okay there are a whole lot of things to do. JIAYOU :)

God bless, take care & byeeeeeeeeeeee (:
