The Gal – Nicole

Last day of January, and I already feel that time has just flown yet again. Having said that, 4 weeks of schooling in my graduating semester has gone by, and each day just got more hectic, tiring, and satisfying, to say the least.

Already cutting back on a lot of things, yet I still find myself squeezing time as tightly as I can. Not a good thing, and neither is it a bad thing. LOL.

As I take time out today… I just look at the activities ahead and go… “uh-oh”.

Morning – Tech65 recording with the cool tech65 crew at our beloved Geek Terminal.

Afternoon – Attending BlackLiner’s event at Cicada (I’m excited)

Evening – Dinner with the family at home. Dad’s cooking western meal of Pork Chop. Complete with my favourite grilled tomato.

Oh yes, I have so many backlogged posts and stuff… stay tuned!!!

A nice song to accompany me today, while I go through my usual paces of classes today.

I made headway with my FYP. A small step, but better than none.

Just wanna make this short and sweet as the books beckon.

I take my leave from protem committee of ABS. Hence forth, I shall be concentrating on my studies, the bloody assignments, and tech65.

The work load has ballooned to an all time high, and hence, it would be more prudent of me to concentrate on it.

The lessons that I’ve learned are nowhere to be found in textbooks. It has been an eye opening journey.

Its time for me to move on and back to the books

Happy Lunar New Year!

May the Year of the Ox brings about prosperity, good health, and to businessmen, more wealth

Of course, not forgetting the female Ox.

(My house decorations)

May everyone collect loads of ang paos.

HUAT AH!

Do take care of your health, because of all the yummy goodies, and the festive dishes *Can’t wait to have Yu Sheng*

Today is the eve of Chinese New Year.

Its also the last day of the Rat year. And at midnight, the Ox is ushered into the new year.

This is also the day where everyone goes home to have Reunion dinner with the rest of the family members. I make an effort to go for Reunion dinner. Its also a time where everyone come together, and have a good time of eating, drinking and laughter.

Without fail, will stay up as late as I can, because it brings your parents longevity.

I spend new year’s eve at grandparents place, and after that, a little quiet time on my own.

PS: Scheduled post

Spring cleaning for the Lunar New Year is an annual affair, and it sure promise to make my eyes water, and sneeze non-stop while cleaning. I’ve sensitive nose, thus it didn’t help that dust particles irritate the hell of my nostrils.

But it has to be done, so here I am, faithfully doing my part for Chinese New Year. lol.

I don’t know what the year of the ox would bring for me, for yours truly was born under this zodiac sign. Whatever it brings, I accept. Good or bad, I also accept. I thank God for every circumstance that he throws me into, be it good or bad.

Dear belove readers of nicole.sg,

Lately things have been happening too fast and too furious… leaving me to grapple with so many matters that sometimes I can’t even control.

My main concerns in my life (studies and final year project) is cropping up, and I have to do something fast.

This site remains updated, though on a slower scale, or through series of published posts that I schedule in any possible free time. Fret not, my tech reviews will continue here as well as on Tech65. My lust for gadgets and passion for technology is still very much strong and alive. Geek talk makes me happy.

I am not feeling really ok, and would appreciate understanding/hugs/love. If you wanna meet up with me, feel free to do so. But I will do my best to slot a meeting with you For those who need to look for me, you know how and where to find me. I am an sms/phone call/msn/email away.

I love you all.

Nicole

When I was first approached with the idea of helping out in the Association of Bloggers Singapore, I feel that its a good idea to have a common platform for all bloggers to have a place to call our own.

I hope that with ABS, there would be awareness raised to blogging responsibly, and building friendships online and offline. This is what I would like to see. We can have fun and learn new things together!

I am glad that ABS (Associaation of Bloggers Singapore) has gotten the official nod, and looking forward to meeting you.

Today’s Friday, TGIF, some may say. Indeed, its TGIF.

I am still reeling from what has happened yesterday, but I am glad that it all came out well.

Admiring the rose that he gave to me yesterday, its a small keychain type, but really sweet as a mini-surprise… The past few days of last week and this week were trying times, and I am glad to have friends for company, to weather through it all. *hugs*

The adrenaline is slowly wearing off, and I am about to hit reality, but it has left a different and changing impact on me.

Have a great weekend~

Nicole

PS: Regular review posts resumes next week!
