dilemma lah...
yesterday dinner, dad told us to think over!
He is intending to make a trip to the USA to disneyland with Zac and wants the whole family to go BUT he will only fork out $xxxx amount and the rest are on us... *Faintz*. The conclusion of that talk was USA was too far, too ex and disneyland! HK also got what... so we thought that HK wud be a better destination. and the trip is in DEC! which means that i have to decide whether to go or not? :( i can't go both cos my bank account is not very supportive in that sense and we intend to go back to Singapore next year end to have the most mini wedding dinner that holds like 2 tables! haha. its the marriage not the symbolic function/show/dinner whatever it is that matters. ANYWAY!
i dunno what to do...
:(

its April! how time flies. i remeber the days when i started applying for this graduate course and now! im half way through! i rem the days in dec when we met hl, sampo and ah zhang in aussie and had a hell lot of fun time. one thing that i rem was when we we planning our itineary, we did not include the helicopted ride over the 12 apstls but when we were on the bus, we got psycho-ed and paid the additional to get on the helicopter. it was worth it! priceless and we got an amazing self portrait of Mingli as well!
i remember the hot dry summer weather in Jan and Feb and how we always had bbq for dinner. but now as autumn sets in, the wet, muggy weather dampening our moods and make it harder to get out of bed. the sun rises much later. What will happen when winter comes! when we are all wrapped out like hum chee peang.
* i just had mcdonalds fries. sometimes junk food is just so yummy esp when u haven't had them for quite a while.*
Wz will be graduating this may and move into full time emp. i will finish my course at the end of this years and face young children (for the rest of my life??)
and this year!!!!!!!! we are visiting south island of New zealand. this had to come true.. no longer a dream: we had to swim with dolphins, erm.... check out the "beauty" of sperm whales, experience farm stay and take llamas for a walk.. and go to milford sound.... Awww... c'mon!!! pls let time fly quicker...
