Fulfilling but tiring trip, stressful @ times (due to lots of factors). Believe when travel in groups or for any tour, keys factor is to learn to compromise, accomodate, free and easy spirit. If not, its really hard for one to enjoy urself to the fullest.. no matter how fun or exciting the event is.. Learnt better not to travel in trio.. make it easier for all.. as no one will be left out.. hard to include all in @ all times..

Had a enjoyable one day tour with buddy.. nice catching up.. laughing and doing random stuff.. taking FOC tram ride.. black n white pic.. 3 trip after graduation.. discussed that there are more to come.. haa..

Life is pretty mundane, working, resting, baking, learning to play keyboard (although i might be a retard to music - that's what zhen say *evil).. huggy is growing horizonally and vertically, getting bigger, silly, adorable each day..

Animal instinct exist.. before the actual thunderstorm came, huggy was whinning outside, trying to come into the house, not allowed too fury..

Huggy - 1Yrs 2 months old..
