Thought Transfer

I just transferred my archives again for my blog at Windows Live Spaces. Reason being Windows Live Spaces is going to be converted to WordPress anyway and if I don't transfer I will lose all my archives. And whether you view this as being narcissistic or not, I treasure all my archives, and don't want to lose them. However, I lost my beloved green-tea theme that I have stuck with for years, AND the list of blog links I have compiled across the years. :( I haven't settled down with a new theme though.

Now I'm trying to get my review paper write-out out before holidays end. Thank God for EndNote. Why did EndNote not exist in my life years earlier?! It would have made citations a breeze. :( Well, better late then never. For the sake of myself, and those whose fate is tied with this review paper, I will get this out no matter what!

Mable is going off to INTI tomorrow. Makes me wish I could start Year One, or even Secondary One all over. It really feels weird to only have one more semester of school life left only! But then again, I'm not getting younger, so I'd better start working instead. Hope working life won't be too bad. As for tomorrow, it will spent loading and unloading, cleaning, hanging, and saying goodbye to all her toys.

First (short) post in 2011

Just attended a wedding of a sister in Christ in church. Apart from the bride and groom looking very sweet together - and some rather tear-jerking moments, I am really thankful for all the memories we have to share together in this church. It's like growing up in a mega-sized family, where we share many things together - growing up, growing old, celebrations, baptisms, marriages, births, and even deaths.

This is something I wish I could really feel for GLCC too - which to me seems much of an organization rather than a church, firstly because it is really much bigger; secondly because I don't know too many people there (mainly due to lack of initiative); and thirdly, because I didn't grow up there. But Campus has gone through a lot with me, much more than they think they know, and has walked me through an important phase of life too. I wish to create and preserve more memories with my home church still, and also in GLCC and with Campus group.

By the way yesterday I watched Despicable Me at home. Story-line was quite interesting, though not mind-blasting, but everything was a mixture of just-rightness, more or less like the feel Tangled gave. However, unlike Tangled, the theme of this story is more centered towards family warmth and over-whelming cute-ness, coming from two potent sources.

The first:


And what bowled Dawn over:

My last (short) blog post in 2010

Happy new year to all :) May this be a year of many new beginnings. This post is to specially remember sis Mi-en and hubby who will be joined together as husband and wife tomorrow morning. May God's grace be upon their union.

Hope I can blog more this coming year too! Nothing too much to say. But many thoughts to gather.

Last round of CORS

This is the last round of CORS bidding for my module and for the first time, I file for graduation. Somehow ever since my departure from SP/Merck when my industrial attachment ended, I seem to just take these last times by the stride now. My last school-like semester is going to be punctured with job-hunting, accommodation-hunting, poster making and The Presentation. And of course, there's our final year activities in Raffles Hall.

I have one S/U left, and I do badly want to take one more UE. However, looking at my current workload, it would/might be better to dedicate more time to hunt for a job/place to stay instead, or learn something interesting that doesn't need commitment, since even an extra A+ from a UE can't move my honours up anymore.

So bye bye UE. And bye bye CORS. Bidding ends today for me.

And hello 2011. I'd always thought you've never come. For one, your coming means I (finally) end my formal education. And for another, you make me feel old, as you mark the coming of the second 'Rabbit year' that I'm conscious of.
