Amour Chaleur

Yesterday was our farewell gathering for Huaian before he flies back to Australia this weekend. It’s been a year since our previous farewell for him when he went Australia to further his studies last year. I had to confess I totally forgot to tell Huaian about our meet-up till the morning before we were suppose to meet. I told him our gathering would be on the 3rd but didn’t update him regarding the time again. He thought I was busy with my exams (which I was) and the gathering was rescheduled. I gave him a call immediately and luckily he managed to find some time to meet up with us. I couldn’t imagine what would have happened if I didn’t remember not telling him. All of us will be waiting at Vivo City and he’s not going to appear. I’m pretty sure most of my friends will kill me for it!

We planned to head to the Sentosa island to take our first look at Resort World. All of us haven’t been there and we thought it will be a good idea to tour Huaian around the new sections of Sentosa before he leaves. The place was unusually quiet and empty. I would have expected it to be bursting with activities and music. It wasn’t what I had expected but perhaps with the opening of the Universal Studio, it will be a livelier place. We discovered the Hershey’s chocolate shop beside the entrance to Universal Studios. I love this shop because they sell a huge range of Hershey’s chocolates¹, they even have peanut butter chocolates!

1. I am not a huge fan of chocolates but I’ve to admit, Hershey’s chocolates are good! [«]

Chewy and I enjoy looking out for new places¹ to visit but due to the “supposedly” raining weather² today, we decided to head to the mall. It is not our first time at Iluma but surprisingly, we still manage to find out something new about this place. The top level has an outdoor garden which I felt was it’s a good place to chill out since it was not chocking with cigarette smoke and the green grass was lovely³.

1. We love to treasure hunt! [«]
2. It didn’t rain in the end due to our inaccurate prediction [«]
3. It was fake plastic grass actually [«]

It’s the start of the new year right after Christmas. A very happy new year to you and I wish this year will be filled with lots of new and happy memories for you no matter which part of the world you are in! I had a blast during the small Christmas gathering at home and the countdown towards the new year is not an exception either. We held a not-so-small family and friends gathering at home. I love holding such parties in the comfort of my own house. It’s much more comfortable and I like how the entire house is filled with noise and laughter.

On a side note, I realised I fulfilled a few of my new year resolutions for 2009. Reading back the post I wrote at the end of 2008, I managed to get at least 50 marks for each of my UOL papers in the 2009 examinations and I got myself a new wallet as well. 2 out of 4 accomplished in the last year! I hope I managed to get those for 2010 done as well.
