On X'mas eve...

I'm so glad that we got a half day off from work today~! This year is the year that I have received the most number of presents, and also the year that I spend the most on Christmas presents....However, I didn't really shake as many hands as previous years in my current company. Many were on leaves and all were rushing to take the bus back after the free lunch buffet in the canteen.

My mum and sisters left for Malaysia to visit my relatives, leaving me alone at home surfing the Internet. Tonight, I'll be meeting up with my best friends to exchange present and play mahjong...luckily I still have them or it'll be a boring Christmas.

Ever since I have completed my part time studies and driving lessons, my life became more boring. It's always the same thing - Internet, TV and manga. Maybe I should go learn a new language or something. I hope with a new car, I could spend my free time exploring places in Singapore. I hope I could buy an off-peak car next year...I learnt that it is expensive to buy an auto insurance under a new driver's name, and I should buy an insurance plan under an experienced driver's name and add my name as one of the car's driver (I think I would probably do that to save money).

I'm really envious of Jinglun, who got a chance to cut album and pursue his interest in singing. As his ex-classmate in JYSS , I wish him all the best in his singing career. Nowadays, I didn't really go karaoke much with my best friends. Luckily, I have got colleagues who like singing too or I think I won't have much chance to sing karaoke except on my birthday. I ever have a dream of becoming a music cafe singer, but I think it is hard to fulfill as I'm easily nervous and I have got bad memory with lyrics. It always happen no matter how hard I practise...in singing contests, I always freaked out at that important moment and all the things went wrong - the pitch, the lyrics, the rhythm....everything. Haiz. My favourite driving instructor ever told me that human is always envious of others who seem to do better. I think he's absolutely right.
