Early Christmas Eve Surprise! Santa Claus's Crews

"Ehhh ... ...", not too sure how to start on this post. My few friends[Jun, Lawrence, Ryan, Chew] and I, went to Jusco to get some presents for the Christmas Gift Exchange thing. I wanted to celebrate Christmas so much, that I forced all of them to get the Santa Claus's "Red Hat". I was so tempted to get one, because it has LEDs on it[wakaka], it sparkles when I put the batteries in. Anyway, that's not the main point. On our way back, we got this crazy idea of going to Cyberia and shack things up a little. I called a few people, but almost none are interested to join in. Well, it does demotivate me a little. However, since I've already forced my friends to get the "Red Hat", it would be a total waste if I cancel the trip in the end.

We arrived in school at about 12am plus plus. Glad to have Ern, Suthesh, and Sheng to join us at the very starting of the visit. Afterthat, Heong and her friend, Su Hua. Everything went pretty well, especially with my twinkling christmas hat[:p]. It sort of attracts people's attention, and shines brightly in the dark[promised myself to get one with music next year! haha]. Last but not least, Yee, a girl which is a boy[err...??? :p] join us too after we gave her a visit. She still kept on complaining that a person called her and asked her some stupid questions[are you using your PC now? washing your clothes? etc].

Next targetted location, ChunNang's Birthday Gathering in his own apartment. It was kind of weird at first doing this singing and taking photographs thing, but somehow got used to it, and it became much more of a excitement and fun meeting new people.

It all started with just 6 person.
There goes our pretty camera girl for the night, Ern in the middle.
Then, we went to grab Yee down[She regretted not to get a red coloured shirt :p]
All in red, nice....
Suthesh, you're going to love this. :p
Again, Happy 21th Birthday Chun Nang!
A surprise visit to our miss cute, Kah Hui.
Another surprise visit to Heong's friend!
Met an old friend from St. Davids, Edwin!!!
Another great group of friends!
Visit to Ern's friend's house. Cool!
Finally, Merry Christmas to Molly and housemates!!!
Special Thanks to JJ, Ryan, Sheng, Heong, Ern, Hua, Yee, Suthesh, Chew, Jun, and Lawrence!

A Complaint Free World


I was watching TV on the other day when I was back in Malacca. Just in coincidence that one of the channel in Astro was showing "Oprah" (it's showing in AXN if I am not mistaken). I was very attracted by one of the campaign founded by Will Bowen, named "A Complaint Free World".

A Complaint Free World, inc. is a non-profit, non-religious entity which provides purple bracelets and other materials to help people affect positive change in their lives. They had been distributing bracelet as well as some other materials to help people all around the world to have a positive change for themselves.

I personally think this is a very start for those who always feel unsatisfied with the world we are living in. I had been practising this program about 3 days ago. Trying not to complain for just 3 days is harder than I can imagaine. What you need to do is, just get a bracelet, I remembered it was once a very popular fashion icon that almost everyone had one of those rubber bracelet. The catch is to keep the bracelet on the same wrist for 21 days. Therefore, each and everytime you started to complain, or even had the thought of complaining, you need to change the bracelet to the another wrist, and start the count all over again. Why 21 days? It was somehow proven that's the duration to break a habit.

By reducing complains, we are able to live in a much happier and healthier environment. Taking things positively would definitely make our life much more meaningful as well. I sincerely urge everyone to at least give yourself a try in this campaign, it won't take much of your time.

Christmas Present Exchange!

Was very excited about Christmas this year. I got this idea from a very good friend of mine.

I will write down a list of names who is interested to join for this Christmas Gift Exchange. Everyone in the list will have to get a present, it does not need to be expensive, as long you're happy with what you get as a gift. Then on the Christmas Eve, I will mark everyone's present with a numerical value then post it here, where later you guys will get a chance to pick a number. Thus, you will get the get the present of the number you chose.

Simple! What you need to do is:


Zhiqin's Christmas Gift Exchange Friends List
Lee Chai Soo
Ong Zi-Jun
Lee Chun Kit
Carolynn Yeo
Chew Soon En
Suthesh
