Blessed New Year everyone!

2009, here i come! Just a note: the headlines on the papers today (on the first day of a new year) is super depressing. What a good way to start the new year -.-'''

Anyway, my filter in my fish tank decided to retire at the end of 2008. It didn't want to work in 2009 anymore. I spent half of the afternoon yesterday running to buy a new one & figuring out how to use it. Dear helped a bit in the fixing and gave me flowers! =)



So after that went down to marina to do some shopping. I bought a handbag! But i should really stop spending money. Ate dinner and joined the crowd at marina/esplanade in waiting for the countdown & fireworks. Sat near the floating platform enjoying free music from the countdown party from 8.30 all the way till 12. YEA. I know i'm mad to join in the crowd on new year's eve
& to sit there for 3.5 hours. But there were many people there as well! The crowd thickened at about 10pm... all waiting for the fireworks.


The balls containing wishes on the river





So after midnight, dear and i went to clarke quay to meet farah. Massive jam at major roads because some were blocked. Stayed there for a while but started to feel really really sleepy. So dear sent me home. Almost KO-ed in the car. Haha.

Happy 2009! ~
