Last Day!!
Yeah! This is the last day of the term. It's kind of sad because my Year 2 in polytechnic is going to end. Once after my exam, I'm coming to the next level.
Today is quite a long day for me, from morning, having lesson till afternoon, from afternoon, went out with friends. Arriving back home tired and happy is already very late..
In the afternoon, I went out with my friends for a KTV session. For that 3 or 4 hours session, we sing quite a lot of Chinese songs. I don't feel like listing them all. Anyway, this is my first time going to KTV. That was quite a happy and unforgettable experience.
Anyway, this is fun hoping one day there will be a chance to do that again. Feeling such a relaxed after singing quite a number of songs.
