2008 and more!

Happy New Year to all!

Ski Trip was very fruitful. I finally learnt how to ski beyond green slopes and had the chance to snowfight and making snowman for the first time in my life.

yeah! our snowman! (he was kinda stumpy =P)

And we had a snow leopard crawl competition!! Sadly I didn't win despite being from SAF.

It was freaking cold up in the mountains. It ranges from -10 to -15 degrees!! Louise and I almost froze our toes away on the first day 'cause we went to play in the snow with our normal shoes!

Definitely going to ski again and try the harder slopes. But maybe not France again, try Switzerland?

Last night went for the Countdown 2008 at Embankment. It was one of my worse countdown ever!

1. Fireworks produced too much smoke and ended up fogging everything. Only heard the fireworks but not see much of them.

2. The crowd was crazy. Crazy in the bad way. It was so crowded and some irritating bastards were pushing in the crowd.

3. Some of the Brits teenagers got drunk and started shouting racist comments at us. I almost whacked them.

4. The UK crowd control is really lousy as compared to Singapore's. We started leaving at 1215, only to be home at 0200.

Ok I am not trying to be racist here as well. But some and may I emphasize it, SOME of the brits - Not matter you are British-born whites, blacks or indians, you guys must really stop being so racist and think that you are of a superior race to the Chinese!! Because the simple fact is.. You guys are not! Many of them are roaming the streets creating troubles out of nothing and ended up with the police. I really wonder how will their future be. And being racist, only makes you guys look ridiculously ignorant to us. (you guys don't even know that not all Chinese are from China or Hongkong? haha) So please stop being the shame of London and make good use of your life.

Oh just want to share one good example.

A guy crawled up the top of a bus stop and started dancing. Minutes later, he was arrested by the police. And seconds later, another guy pulled the same stunt again, to end up with the same fate of spending his New Year in police station. Just as we thought no one will be dumb enough to it again, 3 other guys went up!!! Haha guess what happened to them yourselves. Stupid right? Don't even know how to learn from others.

Nonetheless, I hope these are minorities.

Yup 2007 had been a good year for me. Did lotsa stuff in a short span of 365 days. And finally I started school again!! yeah!

Wish that 2008 will be as fruitful or better!
