Moving to wordpress

So I'm here at malaysia already. Left the house at 6am and got here to my cousin's house only at 6pm. Ridiculously long journey here but that's also because we stopped by Malacca halfway for some shopping. Mickey got fatter, and thankfully he didn't barked when I stepped in. So afraid of dog's barks! Hopefully a good and enjoyable 3 days stay over here, got 2 cousins here under the same roof as me :) I wna be back at Singapore too, I'll just make the best out of it here. Happy chinese new year!!!!!!!

I got it wrong in my previous post till Ethel told me. It wasn't 2011, its 2012 already was I dreaming that time. Six days into the new year and I'm here to set my goals for the year. Gets really boring because everyone's doing theirs, so am I because I want to. And feel accomplished when I look back.

In 2012 I want to,

Stretch myself and learn more. Love without walls. Never give up. Do what I love. Run a marathon. Learn a few songs on the guitar. Save up for an itouch. Spend time with family and friends. Seek God. Forgive even when it’s hard. Smile often. Be grateful in all circumstances. Try new things. Work hard. Embrace change. Hesitate less. Make every moment count. Be thankful. Be happy. Pray not only in bad but also in good times. Live for today. And above all, trust in God.

I want to have a sausage dog after watching some cute video. Though I'm still scared of dogs.

Sweden was amazing

 HEJ! (It means hey in swedish) I've gots so much to say about the Sweden trip. It was a good 10 days with the team. Had so much fun, made all of us missed it so much the moment we touched down back at Singapore. Weather there was really cold. And there's the smoke smoke thing that comes out from my mouth whenever I talked. SO COOL I thought it only happens in movie!!!! The smoke thing still amuses me.

 
Lodge 32 was our home for the first 5 days. Enjoyed my stay there!


Had 10 people in a room and I got to sleep on double deck bed! On top of jazzy yeo. Hehe some nights when I couldn't sleep I moved alot and woke her up, opps!!! Sorry!


Cup noodles for late nights where we were allowed to stay up. There'll be this cool little table outside our room where we can all just sit and talk till we get chased in.



And GOD JUL means Merry Christmas!!!!!!

Food there wasn't fab but I love their muffins! I wish I could have them for all of my breakfasts!!!! Apple cinnamon nom nom. Lunch and dinner were always catered with the execeptions of a few times where we ate out. I had kebab meal which we shared with 3 people because the portion was so HUGE and we 3 still felt super full even though we shared!

Experienced taking the subway, shivering in the cold winds, cuddling together in the cold while waiting for our bus, having tough long 4hr trainings, bathing in the open, touching snow, watching elite matches oh and I must say SWEDISH GIRLS ARE SO PRETTY!


Yay my dearest girl! WE WENT SWEDEN TGT!!!

Christmas eve and christmas day was spent sightseeing at stockholm. It was an amazing time. Finally got to admire the scenery, skies were blue and clear, people-watch, visit little sweden and shopping places.

 

This was at Christmas market. And say hi to all my kids! 

 

We watched changing of guards. It was quite cool! I saw those macho firece guards, those that really wouldn't smile and talk at all!!!!!!!!! And I saw guards with horses too.

Christmas lunch at coach's house where we tasted lots of traditional swedish food. I wouldn't say it tasted bad, but it wasn't too my liking. Had lots of fun putting up perfomances like skits and songs for our teachers. Joyful christmas indeed :)

 On our way to Uppsala! No more stockholm and the smoke thing coming out from my mouth :(

Uppsala was our competition venue. 3 full days of competitions. Itinerary for us was literally breakfast, match, lunch, match, dinner match, debrief sleep. It was tough. We lost all the matches, which was expected because Sweden is number 1 in the world for floorball. We're nothing compared to them. It was really an eye opener watching sweden teams playing, how fast they move and how accurate their shots were. Awed.

Back in Singapore our guys can easily trash a school 17-1, but here in sweden its the other way round. But I'm so so so inspired by Sweden teams. We all just wna be like them! Bitter in the beginning but sweet at the end because the girls did a superb job for our last match. A sweet goal, tasted like candy :) 

Love how this trip bonded close so much closer together. I love these girls to bits now!!!

 

And thermal sleeping bag in classrooms for us during our Uppsala stay. Which reminds me of an incident and Ms Seah told me she'd never forget me as the girl who got locked out outside. Hahahaha sigh.

 

 I thank God for this amazing trip. For the girls, teachers, coach and everyone. I love how God was with me through this trip as well, waking up early in the morning to do qt with few of the girls, and just praying for his strength to be with us for the day ahead. Hej do! (It means bye teehehehe)

Back from Sweden. Best than ever. Cold, fun and unforgettable, just like ice cream. 2011 came, past and go. Now its 2012. Anticipating a year of more endurance and strength. Miss my church homies so much I need to see them right now.

Proper update soon.
