winter in spring~?

*warning: super long post. thank goodness for autosaving drafts, i almost lost the WHOLE thing cos xplorer died on me! =(

happy easter sunday! =)
bet mommie and daddie are having fun in guangzhou.. (is tt where they went?)

there was a winter storm last friday~! snowed 10 inches or so i think.. and the ironic thing is that one of these days over the weekend was supposed to be the first day for spring~! hah. michigan weather. i guess it should be melting soon.. its not really -that- cold now.. around 0-ish i think=) but its supposed to snow bits and pieces over the next week or so.. how wacky.

oh yes, really wanna thank God for opening doors for me =)and also the ppl who were praying for me and supporting me and encouraging me.. and ppl trying to be there.. esp like mommie, daddie, jie, kale, hwying~!!, and jem.. just really thankful and can't wait to start on a new part of my life! =) jem is going to berkeley too.. so we'll be only an hour or so away..

it'll be nice.. distance makes the heart grow fonder.. it'll prob make us cherish each other more and take each other for granted much less. =) and we'll be able to visit each other really easily and often.. its kinda like we're living on both ends of singapore. =) say changi and junrong west??? haha.. with much nicer weather. and i'm excited about possibly visting jie in LA next time=)

i have so much stuff to clear, its totally insane =( and i'm not really starting any of the clearing yet.. partially cos i don't have time.. and partially cos it means my time here is ending.. heh this place has grown to really be my second home..

that doesn't mean i'm not excited tho.. i -am- very excited. about graduation, about seeing my family here and showing them this place that's been my cosy little cove..(which may not be very presentable in its current state, haha), excited about summer at home to see and catch up with old frens again, possibly some summer trips (? *hopeful*), the addition of a new baby to the family!!!!, maybe starting some dancing at home, then heading to grad school and enjoying my last year away.. =)

hms, all those nice little plans in my head, but now i have loads of things i have to overcome that's sitting in a pile in front of me.. mostly senior design stuff i have to tackle and clear. possibly another ballroom comp...

most of all.. i must remember that all these plans are in His hands... and be thankful that He's brought me safe thus far.. and has been so so good to me =) what better time to remember than easter? yay.

*lets out big breath*
wow. that was one long post. probably no one will read this. haha oh wells. guess i'm kinda making up for the long time absence and sporadic short updates that weren't really updates..

just saw the adorable pics of meredith on my jie's blog and thus inspired on this sunny (yet snowy) sunday afternoon to update and hopefully get some pictures up. so here goes.=)

michigan comp, 9th feb '08~
