Within this year, I have made many friends and strengthened even more friendship ties. My lovely friends from korea, singapore and on almost every part of the globe have made my stay in Beijing so interesting and fulfilling. whats more, within a year, many of my friends in JC and even at work have visited me. we played, we have fun and we turn the roof upside down (= loves you people=) most importantly, my parents have visited me, showering me with love and cooking me nice dishes and yes, my first year has been very meaningful. i managed to fight back the negative emotions of being a non scholar. back then, i used to feel soooo depleted and drained and lousy just because i m not up to standards and people stare at you and ask " YOU DUN NOE MEH??!!!" with their eyes BIG and ROUND. eeks. but well, for the second semester, I have fought for what i want, i got it and i think my life really rawks. getting into ppf as the youngest candidate is a challenging task for me. Its not about rubbing shoulders with big shots, its about interacting with successful and experienced adults to learn more, to mature and to grow. i am glad i have been given all these opportunities=D ppf can be real busy but it gives me a channel to stay in contact with my lovely country at least once in a week=D for that, i am willing to go all out for it and make a difference to not just my life but those around me.
looking fwd to the coming sems. =DD
