我的二十一岁生日就在新加坡机场，深圳航空，南宁机场，和凤凰酒店度过了。。

the security guard that was standing at the departure hall wished me happy birthday when i went through the departure hall. haha for a while i 冷了一下。。quite shock la.. yep.. the flight onboard shenzhen airlines took close to four hours, and upon arrival in nan ning, the journey to the hotel took another 45 mins. was slightly introduced to the tour guide yangyi and nan ning. then checked into phoenix hotel. not too bad a hotel.

after breakfast, we set off for a 4.5 hrs journey to 德天瀑布。。it's this waterfall that lies between vietnam and china, can u imagine, i can see vietnam across from where i stood taking pictures.

and this one trip took us the whole day practically, cos it was a 4.5hrs there and return.. and as usual, Joanne liked to 自拍。。

23-12-2007

this was a day of many new adventures. we went to the caves, and they were several ways to get around. amazing. got to ride this 'kart' look alike thing. haha. and then the cable car.. look at the pictures.. went up the highest mountain in guilin by cable car. admired really scenic views. amazingly beautiful.

went to visit more places of interest, and a 'preserved' university compound of the olden days. haha.. got to see the examination halls, which was well pretty not the type of place we can imagine ourselves to be in..taking an exam. hahz.

got around alot on the rivers. toured li jiang on ferry, saw the olden days fishing on the bamboo poles made 'boats' and took lots and lots of pictures. beautiful. as the saying goes, 桂林山水甲天下。i truly agree. things you always thought could only be seen in pictures, appear right before you.. seriously, it takes every breath away from you. =) and on this christmas night, i went to a so-called 'club' in nanning with yang yi, zhang fan and celine. it was an interesting experience. thanks to yangyi and zhangfan for the outing. realised that beer has little effect on me, but that doesnt mean i will drink... haha. and thanks celine otherwise known as xiaoxu for the company that night.

from all the pictures, i guess you all would have figured out that i really enjoyed myself. 可惜欢乐时光短暂。。时间也不会因此而停留。thanks to those who made the trip a wonderful time for me. i recommend guilin! =P

i had an enjoyable 21st birthday celebration yesterday... =) i'm a happy girl. thanks everyone for making it such a wonderful time for me. i hope u guys enjoyed yourselves too. and i'm sorry for not being to entertain everyone! as expected, some people didnt come but it's alright i know you guys have your reasons.. =) thank you everyone for the gifts and well wishes, the special song dedication from yun han and chak=) the hand-made gift from han, and the many many other things. thanks alot. and to my dear boy, thank you so so much, for the not vv well kept MIB secret...the chalet, the customized cake, LOL. thanks for everything. i <3>

i know how i shouldnt allow these kind of crap to put me down, but knowing the kind of person i am, most of you would know that this, will no doubt affect me in some way or another. fortunately i still have people around to help me maintain my sanity. you see, being nice doesnt prove to yield expected results. i backed out long ago, realizing that it would only do more harm then anything else.. choosing not to interfere, not to bother, even to ignore. but then the soft-hearted me decided that hey, our paths met, why go to such extent... but this decision to be nice, was a wrong move. wrongly accused, sleepness nights. ended up in an irritated and pissed off me. i dont want to hate you, so do the right thing...enough of this.. shant spoil the entry..
falling sick relatively easily this holidays. the first was a fever after 2 days in the rain during the isg. then now i'm down with a cold and slight cough, watery eyes and all...uRGh. must be the rain and the fatigue...
played a couple of games for isg this time round. unfortunately for me, unable to go further for IH with the rest of the oners.. going to guilin come this 19dec to 26dec. so jia you if we get thru the next round, i dont mind playing IH tennis when i come back! =)
as i approach 21 yrs old, i suddenly feel old.. i hope the celebration on 15 will be a good one. =) yay with the people i love spending the moment with me. yay! hehh =) preparations are on the way...yeppx.
lots of pictures i wanna post... so many many pics in my cam, shalll do it all at one shot when i come back from china kk? =D
