People, are still the second best gift after salvation after all!

If you know me well enough, you know that I am a very extroverted person. Don't get me wrong, it doesn't mean I am popular or anything. It just shows that people are very important to me, sometimes too important. Well, looking past, I really think that people are one of the best gifts I have received! To be surrounded by good friends and good influences is a blessing!

For you who have been reading my blog, maybe you have seen this kind of post before, but I really want to list out 5 people/group I am really thankful to in 2012!
1. My Utown ChemEng group! (Yes, the 12 of you!)
Maybe we are not the closest friend or the most happening group around. However, I have to thank you guys for really being just purely awesome and supportive. I believe that we going through this course together is more fun with friends around, especially the supporting ones. You all never knew how much you guys have helped me in school work and sharing resources! I am just really grateful for each one of you: Xi Ming, Patrick, Ying Te, Monil, Michael Pang, Valentin, Sharad, Daphne, Bernadette, Jolene, Joshua, Edmund. You guys are purely awesome. Just sayin!

2. My suitemates (Ben Tan, Chin Boon)
People called us 'dysfunctional'. It doesn't really matter. I have NEVER regretted moving to the suite I am now. Well, the reason is to be with you guys! Sorry that I haven't really been spending time with you guys! But really, I want to thank both of you for being the most fun and caring neighbors! I appreciate how we all can help out each other and just to look out for each other. To share some of our secrets and to really able to talk openly is really something! Really looking forward to staying for another sem (at least) with you guys!

3. Joy Fu
You might or might not agree with what I am going to say, but anyway, you have really been a blessing for me, especially in my spiritual walk. Thank you for really praying for me and reminding me about the importance of prayer and reading the Word. Recently, to be there in times when I am not feeling very happy! Thanks for being a friend of mine, even when I am in need! :D

4. Edmund Siau
Well, nothing much. A "nerdy-looking (first impression) guy" who apparently is super smart and multi-talented, with gazillion of friends, which turns out to be a very fun person! Thank you for really being a fun friend and a friend that is there when I am in need! Thanks for letting me stay and I have to say that your family is just pure awesome (sorry my vocab a bit limited).

5. Benjamin Wee
Ben! I put you last because you are the person I am most grateful to! Maybe we haven't really been seeing each other lately, but I really want to thank you for being there in my most difficult times. To be a listening ear each time I am sad. To really be available everytime to listen to my complaints and story, and praying for me at the end of each conversation. You are a huge blessing in my life! and I believe in many others' too!
