Had an eventful week last week:)Decorated my room:
with decor stuff from hc nite:)
tada my noticeboard with all the photos!
and with the gramophone discs i bot from spitalfield markets:) loved them immediately when i see them:)
and Wed was V-Day and I had a hot date with Xiufang:) had lots of fun! eating at Four Seasons, catching up and pigging out in her room..hee..we bought this chocolate fondue thing from Sainsburys and it was so so so good!...yummy i can still remember the taste of it in my mouth:).hee we had lots of strawberries bananas and marshmellows..


friday was singsoc dinner oh and i bot a weighing scal which made me really depressed..really going on a healthy diet now!!!..the food was reasonably nice for 10 pounds..and sat was chu xi..and we had prep for CNY carnival..i ran to cantebury and we carried really heavy boxes to UCL..exercise makes me feel happy and had lunner with Yanneng..we bot pizza takeaway (quite an unhealthy choice after so much exercises!) and ate in the middle of Brunswick..it felt so good..then went home and called my parents, grandparents and relatives..:) chu xi was spent at home studying and cooking alone but i enjoyed the nite to myself:) And we had our CNY carnival on Sunday:) Loved the food and the atmosphere.hee..and it was followed by a family dinner at my mom's friend's place..we had dumplings and i helped to make them!:) hee..i really enjoyed it and i loved the feeling of sitting together at a proper dining table and just listening to the experiences of the adults:)..yeah..and i came back and finally booked our tickets and accomodation for SPAIN!!!!! I'm feeling really really excited now..haha..yeah..can't wait for next weekend too!!!..Bonjour Paris..well im going to work really hard during the week for my wonderful weekend trip..yeah..serene is a happy girl!:)..hee
Sat was Hwa Chong nite!!:) It was really a very very memorable day and evening for me..after four months of preparations...buying and lugging back the styrofoams and the other decor stuff from singapore (finding them desperately at the airport when they were left behind on the taxi in Singapore)..painting..spray-painting..paper macheing..drawing..writing the same words 90 times on the photo-frames...yesterday was finally the day when we saw the results of our hardwork...tada!...here are some of the stuff which we made and hang on the ceiling:)
our lovely dolls..planets and stars:)
our decor team!! Huijie, Yanneng, me and OUR Calvin (so sad..cannot call him that anymore:()
My beloved partner and future housemate Yanneng..(this time cannot complain dont have your photos le)
The evening started with Shimmie singing same side of the moon by corrine may which is our theme for this year's HC nite..I was playing the violin..and I got my fellow violinist Justin from Excess Baggage to help me out:)..and Florrine also helped out by playing the flute:)

Justin and me

Florrine and me
Following the speeches by our guest-of-honour and our chairperson Andre..the first course was served..:) It was chicken with parmesan cheese..mashed potato..and some veg..it was quite yummy..or maybe we were too hungry..cos we arrived at the venue at 12pm to put up the decor stuff and do our door gifts without having any proper lunch
yummy chicken
our desser:) vanilla cheesecake with berry sauce..(the cheesecake tasted like cream though)The performance was great:) with touching renditions of love songs by Yangwen and Yongbin..talent time..games..SPL play..and touching videos that brought back lots of fond memories in HC..they showed the 30th anniversary video as one of the videos..although i've watched it two times already..it is still very very meaningful and touching...and i teared when i was watching it..HC is really really a special place for me..where i've found my closest friends like Shiqi and Angeline whom I believe will be with me throughout my life..where i've found the special someone who shared so many so many memories with me..where i've had my best teachers..like miss wong and miss tan...where I felt most at home besides my own family..i really really love HC:) We had song singing sessions and mass dance after the programmes..and although i forgot most of the dance..we just followed andre and jieying and it was so so so fun!!..and I could never have enough of the songs..they will be my fav always:) Of cos..any event is incomplete without photos..below are the photos taken with my fellow Hwa Chongians:)
