It's freezing COLD!!!

** BBRRRRRR....IT'S SO COLD!!! ***

New Year celebration was fun! It's the first time I'd celebrated New Year without my family and HF..it was nice actually. I celebrated it with Ho, Paul, Richard, Jeremy, Taka, Cacndy, Gary and Hosea. Gary and Hosea were Taka's friends. Hosea is from Indonesia who's studying in OK..anyways, luckily I invited Candy, or else it would have been just me and 7 guys..that would be pretty odd..ok, so we all ate dinner at a chinese restaurant called 'Hunan Manor'. We ordered couple of dishes and had rice. Throughout dinner, it was chit chat and makan..haha After dinner, we all headed back to ISCA House..hung out a while and Paul practicing the keyboard..we later rented a movie to watch at the basement. It was just Me, Candy, Ho, Richard, Jeremy and Andrew who watched the movie--6 Million Dollar Man..haha..Stephen Chow is an actor all of us like.silly comedies seem to be a big hit..lol..Paul continued practicing the keyboard, for 3 hours! man, he really had the patience to play scales for 3 hours..amazing!

when we were done with the movie, it was 15min till midnight. So, we flipped back and forth channels to wait for the countdown..3...2....1...then, suddenly, the basement door opens! Ashley, Simon and Paul came in with a birthday cake, singing the birthday song..haha..it was Ho's birthday..nice huh? but then again, he wasn't surprise..it was like as if he knew we had everything planned.. *sigh..at least pretend to be surprise right?? * =p So, we went upstairs and had cake and chatted more..lol..we seem to be a talkative bunch huh? after everyone had a slice of cake..there were some cake left! Paul and Ho each had 2 slices..and me too! Ok, it wasn't that I wanted it..but they made me eat..they tried so hard to make me feel guilty for rejecting Ho's offer and went on saying how small i was..so, the only way to stop them from focusing on me, I ate it. It wasn't a big slice, but those sugar I consumed kept me awake most of the night..lol..I wanted to sleep but couldn't. So, I came online and chatted with my family..also, Ho called..and we chatted..so, it was like me being involved in 2 different conversations at the same time..haha..pretty funny actually..

Yesterday morning, Simon called me and told me that David and Jac had invited me over for potluck dinner at 5pm! I didn't have anything to cook or prepare for potluck! What was I gonna do? Show up without anything? Simon said they were going to just buy some food to bring over, and asked if I wanna share the cost..so, I didn't have much of a choice but to say yes! When I went over to ISCA before heading to David's, Simon told me they changed their mind and had prepared food.. @_@ ..i was stunned..so, I just went there with a dessert that Ashley had bought..well, it wasn't my fault that I didn't have anything prepared..anyways, dinner was good! satay, ketupat, sushi, meatloaf..then later coffee and dessert..I was really happy! haha..David's mom was a good cook! We watched Ratatoulilee and chat and played a bit..hung out at their place till almost midnight..I was tired when I got back..it was a fun night though..but it was really really cold last night. I had a hard time sleeping due to the cold..

Today, I went to the mall with Candy and Yoko..but there wasn't much to see, what more to buy right? Candy was looking at cosmetics..so I was kinda lost in that section..haha..but at 11pm, Richard came over to fetch Candy and I over to watch movie at ISCA..it was freezing cold!!! -15'C tonight and you could see ice all over..not snow! just ice..i'm wearing so many layers right now..and I can still feel the cold..this is gonna be another long night for me..
