Engaged!!!
That is something I most certainly am not!!! haha Just kidding.. But guess what??
My friend Emma is Engaged!!!! To her lovely fiance Richard!! (Don't know the guy at all). She just messaged me out of the blue two days ago, telling me that she got engaged.. wow..
Ok for those that don't know.. Emma used to live next door to me in Goss Building.. haha i remember knocking on her door, hanging out in her room, eating her food in her fridge, making a complete nuisance of myself with and for her, going to her church (just a walk away from where we lived).. Having those deep late night conversations, walking into her room when she was sleeping and poking fun at her. On saturdays, we also used to walk all the waayy down to Dominoes (when I didnt' have a car) and order 2 huge seperate pizzas, and finishing most of them on the walk back. Then we both said we wanted to lose weight.. so after dinner we would go for "Jogs" around the whole block area.. mostly WALKing and Talking, so I guess that didn't do much..
Emma is the same age as me, 20 (so I'm 19, but her birthday is in December). But She is from Queensland, up in Townsville, and she is a true blue Aussie... Brownish red hair, blue eyes (without contacts)... u get the pic??? When she first told me, I like.. started hyperventilating over the phone... cos i freaked out. WHAT THE!!??
I guess in the Chinese culture, especially in Singapore, its startling to hear this because we normally get married after we finish our degrees, buy houses and are financially set for life.. then we choose a spouse.. haha correct me if I am wrong. Man.. She told me this:
" If the only thing that scares you more than spending the rest of your life with him is spending your life
without him, then yes you should marry him"
Does this make sense? I reckon this is a good way to find out if you want to marry the person.. to see if NOT spending the rest of your life with this person scares you more than spending your life with this person.
Well as you can see Im back from the ski trip!!.. IT WAS SO MUCH FUN!! went snowboarding, now i can sort of "snake" and im a goofy!! (which means im left footed). More on this later on.. Now im just so hung up on my friend getting engaged!! She's my age!! haha ok ill stop being an idiot now.
deb's outta there..

:) SNOT... i mean.. SNOW!!
well if you already havent known.. Tomorrow, the Pak family, the Wangs, the Lams, the Lees, the Khoos and their cousins, and the Soos and many others will be heading up to Mount Buller in Mansfield, just off melbourne.. And I'll be going with them!! (with Joy!! and Serena!! and JOSH!!) haha ok ok..
We are leaving tomorrow morning at about 4am.. its like.. a 12 hour drive up there. So we kinda have to leave early.. we will prolly reach there around dinner time.. then.. We start skiing / snowboarding on Monday through to Thursday, and come back on Friday. They do this every single year. Its abit like Church camp.. we go every year.. For Josh, its like their family's main vacation every year...
Snowboarding. Hmm.. It will be SO MUCH FUN!!! not gonna jinx myself !! will tell you how this whole experience went when I return. I've tried skiing already, so this year gonna try snowboarding..
You know.. Joy and her family are so generous towards me.. like.. they told me that they want to give me free accomodation and food...for this vacation.. no money, nothing.. I just have to pay for ski lift hire and board hire.. how generous is that?? I really want to repay them, but right now that's not possible.. Thank God for people like that.. hey.. I feel like.. im such a burden on them. Arrgh. Ive already told Joy - she said I can pay for fuel.. but that's like... what.. 50 bucks?? as compared to like.. 300 bucks for accomodation and food!??
But nonetheless.. IM GOING!!! YAY!! will update this when I come back.
Oh one more note.. to Gaius: Im sorry bout what happened. (Can't say what happened here.. cos Im not gonna reveal nuts). Will be praying for you.

why do i feel so depressed?
Well... i know right now I should be rejoicing right? I mean... got my insurance payout.. passed my exams.. caught up with friends, spent heaps of time with Josh (wink wink - until now I dun think he wants to see my face anymore) wahah.. I dun care!! (*smile)...
I guess its because of exam results.. i mean i really honestly thought I could get at least a credit on one subject and a Distinction for another.... im so sad... WHY!!!??? disappointment seeped in once i the emphoria of knowing I cleared all my subjects had passed.... WHY... studied so hard for NOTHING. NADA!! (but at least i passed).. lets face it.. my results were crap.
CRAP~~!
Now faces the challenge.. take hard courses next sem or easy ones?? Econometrics III, or Strategic Thinking for Decision Makers III?? Economic Theory III or something easier???? ARGGGHH...
