Happy Belated New Year Day!!! Yes, it took me one day after 1 Jan to pen down some thoughts. I was freaking tired from last evening countdown. I wanted to do a little blogging but collapsed on my bed once i reached home. Totally fatigue. When i woke up before noon, quickly changed and dragged myself to work on the first day of 2007. It was "VERY FUN" lor.
Back to new year's eve, i was out with dearie in the afternoon. Very sweet. Cos we went shopping at Ikea. Never been there yet until the last day of 2006. Though crowded, we managed to whiz passed pple and indulge in the world of our own. ha... It was relaxing and touching to spent the last day of the year with loved ones.
After which, we parted and i met Ken for NYE Countdown at Expo. This time, not only Ken came, Gavin and Qiang turned up too. Thanks to Ken, i managed to get a complimentary ticket for the event. Whoo hoo.... Despite having little publicity, the turnout was pretty impressive. It was in hall 6 this year as compared to 2005's hall 2.
This is the second time i am celebrating countdown at Expo. As usual, there was a sudden gan chu. ha.. Its me lar... Really. At hall 4, there was some chanting going on. Went over and took a look, it was Amitabah Society. Made a little prayer and feel serene with the ongoing chanting. I think it is good to have many pple to pray at the same time for a smooth year ahead.
The party eventually started at 11pm. The mambo family swayed into action with their synchronised dance step. Well, the rest of us partied as usual. I told ken i will only go to the podium at the stroke of midnight to welcome the new year. Yes, the padang me. Shouted! Prayed! Huat Ah!
ha... Then the mambo music continued. By 1am, i was dancing next to the mambo family on the same podium. Ken joined me too. If David was there, i guess it would be even better. To dance with the mambo family and to face a crowd of hundreds is no feat. It was challenging but really FUN! While dancing halfway, Eric appeared right in front of me suddenly. Then, it was Hall 9 friends!!!!
I joined them for the rest of the nite. They treated me to lots of drinks. Thankfully, my drinking skills arent too bad. If not, i would have collapsed. ha.... inherited genes. Huiyan, Yongzhi, Xueni and Zhiyong. Yep, all my hall mates. Miss the time we spent together during hall events. 2 years after graduation, we managed to keep in contact thru clubbing. ha... cant imagine.
Finally, the party ended and it was time to go home. A brand new year has arrived, with new hopes and wishes. I will definitely look forward to a better future. Hey its 2007! Cheers everyone!
