hmm..ytd we went out to bugis wor...shop till like hell...headache till want scream for help. Maybe not enough rest these few days ba. When i met my parents later on for supper, on the journey to bukit batok...i closed my eyes. But my mum keep talking to me, when she turned sideway n look at me. Her reaction was,"wah!u got so tired ah!". I think i'm weak. I needed lots of rest de. Hee..think i'm pig. Like what fang say..shopping is more tiring than studies. Hmm..not reali la. Sometimes shopping is fun too.
Wat i have did these few days, i realised i slack alot alot, so this week, is the time to get back on track. Next week there's 2 major tests for me. One of it is java practical test..die liaoz for sure.
hMm..how's life in NYP..hmm..i could say quite enjoyable, time flies really fast..coming to an end of semester two. aNyway bizi,xiu,qin..if u all want meet me for lunch in school or so..do sms me.
My personal mentor told us, to bcum successful in life, is not the result that reali counts, is the journey that we reali enjoying it. True enough, i slack alot this sem, try harder ba all of us. Even end of it, we didnt get what we want. But at least u try before...then wont feel regret.
I think our next gathering will be on 2nd of feb? what time..remind me again, i forgot.

qin - french party

History of Festival of the kings (Epiphany)

This holiday is celebrated every year on the 6th of January and commemorates the first manifestation of Jesus Christ to the gentiles, represented by the magi (the 3 kings). The evening preceding "Epiphany" is called "Twelfth Night". In France a special cake called "Galette des rois" is prepared for this occasion. The "Galette des rois" is a round puff pastry cake filled with an almond paste, and containing a "feve" (broad bean), which symbolizes the Christ child.

When serving the cake the person or child that finds the "Feve" is crowned king for a day. In the "Patisseries" (bakeries) the "Galette des rois " is sold with a golden crown made of cardboard so, whoever find the "feve" will wear the crown.

Even though it is a Christian holiday in France it is considered more of a national holiday rather than religious and is celebrated by people of all religions.

so yesterday, i went to the french party that start at 3 at nyp and finished at 6 plus... go with that pig and ruth.. it was quite boring at the start.. all wanted to go home... but not very sure if can go without permission.. so finally the member of the french club, start to distribute the almond cream to us.. we all thought that there is only one king and queen for the day.. but it pop up that there is more than 20 pairs of king and queen..
