Here are some photos:

On a side note, I passed my BTT! yay! woohoo! ^^ took it with weneng in the afternoon and was afraid to end the test for fear of the result which will appear after we end it xD and what a coincidence! We saw joey today after the test as she came to apply for PDL :D that's why we are friends, we are telepathic!

I'm back!!!! haha i was already back in s'pore 5 days ago but was lazy to update hehe.

Just like what wenjuan and weneng blogged about, im too lazy to blog about 23 days of travelling around taiwan. And as there are 11GB of photos, I will only post some :)

All in all, this trip was a fruitful one and truly expanded our horizons. We better appreciated nature: the mountains, the seas, the skies, etc. It really left me awe-struck at God's wonderful creation and His majesty. Thank God for letting us see such magnificent sights. Thank God so much for watching over our health and safety throughout this trip, for harmony among 4 of us, for everything! :) Even though we lived on little sleep daily, we still had good health and none of us fell sick. Its amazing because I thought we would surely fall sick seeing how we had to leave early in the morning, and reach home late at night. It was truly exhausting.

We learnt to do household chores, the most we have ever done in our 18/19 years :P We also learnt how to be independent ^^ Although some of us miss home, we were still able to enjoy each other's company and live harmoniously with one another throughout these 24 days :DD In my opinion, this is not an easy feat as all of us have different needs and different personalities, and conflicts are unavoidable. Though we have had minor conflicts, we were able to resolve them peacefully and move on :)

We were also inspired by the healthy lifestyles that the Taiwanese lead, and their efforts to save the Earth. For example, wenjuan's uncle and aunty would wake up early in the morning at 5am to take morning walks, and the distance they walk is long! [I think it is around 3-4km] All the households we lived in had 2 different bins: one for normal waste and another for recyclable waste. Whenever the garbage truck came along (with music playing), they would then throw their garbage into the respective compartments. Public places have 4-5 different bins for different waste. Also, all shops do not put the items purchased in plastic bags unless we exceed a certain purchase sum, if not we have to pay for them. This means that we have to bring our own recycling bag. I think Singapore should step up efforts in conserving the environment, though there are already improvements :)

On our part, we are more enthusiastic in exercising now, and I have decided to buy wastebins to categorise my family's garbage :D

Afterthought by all of us: We better appreciated our parents after this trip! haha :P

WHEW! Thank God that we found out that there were some problems with our flight and that we had to change our departure date from 1st April to 31st March :DD If not, this whole trip may have gone down the drain. Pray and hope that everything will go smoothly and no last minute problems crop up.

1 MORE WEEK!!!!! *screams*

Have been busy with uni apps and taiwan trip planning, so I apologise [esp to sousata if you are reading this post] for not updating my blog as often as I promised I would.

I applied to NUS and NTU, with FASS and Communications Studies as my first choice for each uni respectively. I know it is a little weird that I have always been taking the Science route and chose to switch to Arts in the final phase of my education journey. Ohwells. Better late than never right? haha. At least I know of a few who have been like me before.

There is so much anticipation for the much awaited taiwan trip, what being our first time overseas w/o our family with us and all, and for 23 days!! haha. It is a little scary but also exciting at the same time. We will be leaving on 31st March, 9.20pm, on AirAsia flight AK716. CAN'T WAIT!!!! Hope we can finish all our preparations before then so that we can all relax and have fun.

Well, hope that I can update soon! bye (:
