Love is Crystal Clear

Wow Sufei you actually wrote a note for everyone - you are like the best kind ofchocolate - look awesome on the outside but very sweet on the inside. :) Ireally admire how you can be strong and yet such an attractive woman at the sametime! And you sound so sexy when you speak mexican - I think the only mexicanword I know is tacos (is it even mexican??! haha). Thank you very much and Ireally died laughing at the "frocks" - Audrey DID ask all the girls to bringdresses no? haha

Hey Sze Min! Thanks back for being my roommate :). You are just wonderful - soeasy to be with - as natural as breathing and you make me feel so comfortable. Ilove your sensitivity and quiet intelligence. I think we made a perfectcombination - I can't imagine sharing my room and answering wake up calls withanyone else. Thank you again for always making/getting breakfast for me and Istrangely drank less milk since returning to Singapore. China has better cows :)

Ok, shall try to do a Sufei before I forget everyone on the trip (haha):

Girls

Sandy the Sealion & Shree the Poppadom:
Haha, the two of you strange silly girls really made the trip more fun and Istill can't believe that the two of you are older than me - obviously age has noco-relation with maturity. Thank you for all the laughs and wackiness - alwaysstubbornly leaving the group to seek greener trails - only to see lots ofcentipedes!!! To Sandy, when will people learn you look sweet but ain't sweet atall :) and Shree - i can't remember all the things I tricked you about China andChinese culture - but just to clear things up, no kite olympics exist in Xiamen:). And, underneath it all, I really do love being with the two of you. :)

Cheryl, Charmaine and Mabel:
Cheryl - I was really shocked to hear you are year three. Again, I learn thatmaturity obviously doesn't come with age. However, I really loved your sweetnessand thanks for polishing up my Korean. Kamsahamnida! :) Saranghaeyo. To Charmaine - obviously confused between being Snow White or a Polar Bear, you areseriously the cutest cutest thing and I love your shoes. I hope to see you onCampus one day :) hopefully on the killer black stilletos? Lastly, Mabel - youare seriously so Pure and Nice and Pristine and unbelievable and suhc a sweetgirl like you really shouldn't be friends with me but I like you so much thatI've decided that you need corrupting. :)

Qingru & PanPan:
Qingru jie you still hold lots of admiration from me with your da jie feng fan -too cool. I hope you continue your journey gaining wisdom for the much desiredsagehood. :) And to Panpan, you are really unpredictable - can never tell whatyou will say, wear or do and I think it's great you have such a feisty attitudeto life and immense collection of costume photography :).

Kalyn and Cheryl:
Kalyn haha gosh, I think you must think I'm such a bimbo because you somehowalways catch me saying the most ridiculous things. Haha anyway you always giveme the biggest shocks out of the blue during the trip and it's nice to have sucha pretty bubbly senior - you have a lovely voice too! :) And Cheryl, I didn'tget to talk to much but I was super impressed with your golfing skills and Iabsolutely loved your black dress during our final farewell - I really liked thepicture we took. :) Oh also, your voice when you speak chinese is amazinglysoft!!!

Fumin aka Fiona and William aka Wendy/ Wilhemina?:
Haha Fumin, for you, i will always remember how you insisted on following mewhen I went to wash my hair because you didn't want me to go off in Xiamen aloneand had to wait for an hour?? for me to be done - haha I still think that's thefunniest thing. Thanks for being such a GENTLEman throughout the trip, youreally took care of us and don't worry sssh your secret is safe with us - iwon't tell your girlfriend about your alter egoes. To William, haha I reallyadmire how you carried your camera everywhere and your genuinely sincere sweetpersonality - it's not really human you know. Well cheers to two impossiblysweet guys!

Boys

Veera & Yong Kiat
To Veera, although I know (as you have assured me repeatedly) that you do nothate me, sometimes your icy stare speaks otherwise. Haha, but I had a fun timebantering or should I say bickering with you and the thing I shall say lastly toyou is to smile more, don't always use your eyes. :) to YongKiat, the reason whyI even checked my ivle mail because you said you wrote love poems to Sufei andSzemin and those poems are - man, leave me with no words. I'm glad we got toknow each other better in the trip, although I'm quite sad that you no longerthink I'm a quiet sweet girl. Oh wells, :) nothing's perfect in life right?Anyway, thanks for always being the silent dependable person in the background -you have saved me and many others in small countless ways on the trip. The factShree still has her painting speaks for itself.

Jianhao & Lucien:
Gosh you guys are really tall. Haha, I'm stating the obvious but it always hitsme when your carry the luggages. Thanks for doing that the whole trip - likesome baggage warriors. Didn't get to spend much time with the both of you butfrom what I know haha your are really funny. I won't tell Ruth about yoursecret, Jianhao and I gather you won't be eating dragon beards anytime soon Lucien?

Boy & Girl:

Zhiwei & Nikki
I think both of you are really sweet and Nikki, your obsession with food makes me smile! A girl should love her food indeed. :) And Zhiwei, your collection of clothes amazes me!!! It's rare to meet a guy with such fashion sense. Food and Clothes are a good combination indeed. :)

Last but not least, are my three shi xiongs:

Aik Kai, Yupei and Zhiqian (in order of seniority):
ok Aik Kai just looks weird - Yikai your english is too funny or should I sayMost Funniest? Have to confess that at the last few days, Shree and I wouldsuddenly shout What?! at each other - a poor imitation of you of course. Anyway,although we do tease that you are really ungentlemanly (after you?) and like totease about your stubborness over 10 yuan, I think you are a good shi xiong, soif we do meet on campus please do not resort to violence as you often threatento. Yupei hahahah, i'm so sorry that I often pat your shoulder because I oftenforget that I'm not supposed to. Your silence is so amusing and the fact thatyou often talk more the further you are from Zhiqian is even more amusing. Youare definitely the slyest out of the three - haha and your Yupei smile can be soscary sometimes! :) Do smile more though.Xiao Shi Xiong, hahaha do send me all the photos I took in your camera ok? Youare definitely one of the funniest person I ever met and you have a beautifulvoice. Almost like a different person when you sing, but perhaps that's the moresensitive side you tend to hide. Your two good points - sense of humour andsinging. But actually, although you like to insult yourself, you are really agenuinely nice person and I still can't believe you and sandy were friends -obviously, a very dysfunctional relationship both of you have.

Whew, finished. Gosh, this is exhausting. I don't know how Sufei did it.
Bye!
