Now, every family should have a family history, no? So. Our family was formed earlier this year when our (soon to be) fps mentor ms may tan asked if any of us would like to try out fps! And so our family was formed. Audrye, Huimin, Chris-Tin and Shuting.
Since march we have battled through problems, underlying problems, solutions, criteria, ranking and action plans, at the same time braving global warming, freedom of speech and most recently, nutrition.
Our unofficial meeting venue was always Chris-tin's house, and in the process, all of us gained weight with all the many many many marks and spencers cookies and ruffles we had! So much for learning about all the transfat.
It was in this intellectual environment that chemical bonding took place! In the end, we officially became the fps family, which can withstand high temperatures without any change in state. XD
A note about the name! reverse electrolysis was one of our action plans! and fps stands for Future Problem Solving!
Did you know? Chris-Tin killed the blog the first time because she didnt know that half the html for the blog was cut off, and she saved the template changes! so she had to do it all over again. ):

do you save smses that you treasure?
i do.
and i just spent some time immortalising another batch of saved smses on my computer. now i feel so randomly touched by all the nice things people have said, amused by the times people were being cute, and i feel so loved. i must say a big
THANKYOU to the people who bother with me all the time. the people who don't mind corresponding through really long messages with me, the people who actually bother to reply my one-liners when im in a bad mood, and everyone who's just there, one message away, at any time of the day. and because of you all, all those times, the times when i'm on the long train ride home alone late at night, the times i'm feeling disconnected with the people around me, all those times when people feel lonely, i am glad that i have company :) hahaha 爱死你们了.
vivocity. is. big. but the place isnt really that fantastic. i much prefer our
homeland@orchard. the shops in vivo arent that unique to being with, and the crowd and noise sort of spoils the whole atmosphere of the place. i guess everyone's keen to check out the place. i ran into hweeleong and friends in candy empire, zhiyu and family in espirit, and sherman and chengshan were somewhere there too but i didnt see them. and im not sure whether jass went down in the end. i realised that walking around for the whole afternoon before work is a very bad idea. i was completely dazed at work, and even lawrence our manager was jokingly commenting that my reaction was very slow. it didnt help that weekends are super busy days, so even though there're quite a few workers now, we kept rushing around like crazy. and strangely, time passed really slowly this time. i dont know whether it's because the novelty of the job is wearing off or what, but hm it's not good. that aside, i think we made new friends at work : D the other group of students working there are really nice. it took me a while to break the ice la, since on the first two days i met them, i was pathetically alone and awkward xD but once i got to know them, they're very fun to be around :D andand they're all westies, so technically i have company home! just that my mum keeps scolding me and making me go home early so scowls. speaking of alone. IM NEVER GOING TO WORK ALONE AGAIN it's very disturbing as the people who've heard my story know. some people out there are quite scary.
this is shuting by the way, for the sake of certain confused souls ; )
