Freshmen welcome party

We had a great fun last thursday nite. CJ was the superstar of the night (btw, she is "changjin" from thailand. Very beautiful - Ability - 5 stars - able to tame YY). Malaysians and Thais have put up performance. But we didn't. We like to be the backstage helpers.

Other than singing, HS and YY won in the mute-guessing game. A bit unfair though, cos' they used sign languages while others were really trying hard to put the words through actions for their teams.

We also celebrated JL's (Jin Ling) birthday. She is the youngest in our class - only 23. Sometimes, she doesn't understand what we were saying but will say "Yes, Yes". Haha

A lot of our classmates fell sick or injured. Some humpty dumpty had a great fall. Some poured like waterfall. Some like me, have pains here and there. Some careless cats cut their fingers. Sigh, it's like a international hospital at this moment. But our hearts are still healthy. :D

:( Time to do reports. Sigh!

Celebrating Mid Autumn Day

Last night, after dinner, HS, YY, and I went out to stroll under the moon. We saw Ven. JY telling the undergraduates stories. We went to eat some of the goodies. HS, YW and I started walking along the road to view the night landscape. I was joking to YW that I gave the sky, the round moon, and the "stars" on the land. she then replied that we should make a pact to meet next life to see similar scenary again and she would give me the same set as gift. Haha, I quickly dragged HS along to make this pact.

Emm, I wonder what we will be when it comes to the next mid autumn festival. Hopefully we can still enjoy the moon as of yesterday.

Today, I date my hostel mates to go and view the moon again. Hopefully, the moon is rounder. :)

Change in Style

On Friday Evening, Ven. MS has announced to us on the change of style in managing the school. I was really quite disappointed to hear that the restrictions are softened and we have a freedom to choose whether we would like to join the morning puja, evening puja, routine duty work and also wearing the uniform. It is after Master XY has given a talk to us. I guess he must have sensed the unhappiness of many youths in the bachelor class who wish to wear more sexily and openly. Master XY really knows how to read pple's mind. I wonder if he has read my mind too since I was so near to him on that day.

I always tot this would be like the chonglin. Unfortunately, the rules are now lesser. I don't know if i can live up to my own standard given the external environment has changed. Ven MS has said it would all depend on us to impose self-restriction rules. Well, probably she is right. It is just given us a challenge earlier to face more temptations and distrubances in life which we might face later. :(

Last night, I was thinking if I have insisted to go chonglin instead of FGU, it might have been better. But well, we can't turn back time. Maybe it has been sort of arranged to take this step.

I do hope that we can all go thru' this challenge and become the lotuses out of the muddy water. Let's hope all of us can be enlightened and find what we want to find.

Orientation Week

Finally settled in the new premise. I have to start to write in English again since I am in an 99% Chinese speaking environment. I have to maintain my English Standard.

Time flies. It seems so yesterday that HS and I were leading the tour group around Taiwan. It was so tiring. However, we are now "enjoying" ourselves in the classroom.

Shhhh.... I am secretly typing this when the group is brainstorming. HS is also typing something. Haha... we are so inattentive.

YY is chairing the meeting. As usual, she can manage it herself without our help.

So happy that we saw Ven MK and MY last night. We had missed a few chances meeting them. Luckily, we met them eventually. Thanks shifus for visiting us. It was really like parent visit. I were nearly in tears.

Sorry that I have not organized this writing.

Btw, girls and boys, if you are coming to FGU for study, do not go for medical checkup in Singapore yet. Now, we are facing a problem that our medical report may not be accepted. What a waste of $$$ and time. And our poor HS, she may be poked again. I am worried that having 2 X-rays within 6 months may be at risk of getting cancer. :(

Weather is so hot. I wish this is winter now. Ok, time to log off.. my class monitor is near me. Luckily, my class monitor is not YY. :P
