Our quite long email thread

Hi Gina,

Thank for the effort to consolidate our contact information. I did not receive your previous email which means you entered my email wrongly. :-)

Hi all,

Thank for being a great team member in this trip. Lucky we are all around 25 years old and below so that we can bond well and understand one another better. :-)

A quick update for myself. Many of you may have known that I supposed to have a business trip to Malaysia yesterday night. However, I have cancelled it as it was not necessary. But unfortunately I was not sure why I got a very bad infection in my kneecap after getting off the plane. I could not walk properly and visited the doctor and was given 3 days MC. The doctor advice me that if the kneecap get reddish and fever occur, I need to go to the Accident and Emergency immediately. This is the second time I got the hit in 2 months. Fortunately after having the medication, it is better today though I am still limping quite a bit. You may envy that I have 3 days of MC but the fact is that I am right at work! :-( Just too many things piled up from the past few weeks. However, it was worth going for the trip and and knowing all of you. Do keep in touch!

By the way, is this consider BLOG? Wa ha ha.....

Best regards,

Hong Chuang

Wow!! You're on the ball, girl! Haha. That's to Jie Ying. Alright, JY and I will go and search for the album later~ So excited. Lol.

I'm also wondering how we can circulate the photos. Either we upload on Facebook and tag each other or we upload to ammado/flickr. How? I need all your photos! 'Cause I didn't take much myself. :X

Hong Chuang: Please take lotsa care~ Maybe you somersaulted too much. :P Hmmm, and actually we can set up a blog too! But don't know how many people will take the effort to update regularly. I, for one, am super lazy when it comes to updating a blog. Oh yeah, my blog url is http://swtdream.livejournal.com if any of you are interested to know. :)

Love,

Gina

I think those with not a lot of photos can just send by email or something to Rena? Since she's doing the final compiling!


Well maybe we can have a super fast after-trip gathering to get the rest of the photos :x Have no idea lah!!


Speaking of Sembawang, I just went to Tampines Central today and realized the Sembawang there is gone.. (since don't know when thou).


Will be uploading more photos to facebook soon!!! (will the rest just get a facebook acct so that I can tag everyone? LOL!)


p.s. Gina, that shot is really NOT unglam!!!!!

*edits: my reply email was just sent to gina -.- so gina pls ignore the other reply which is the same!!


**edits: just read angeline's final debrief and oh to update on the eye, I went for a follow up this morning (65 bucks gone ): ) and I STILL HAVE TO GO BACK!!! Doc says something about a few bubbles on the surface of the eye which I can't exactly understand and says I have to put some ointment for the next 6 weeks.. Other than that I'm pretty much fine.. He said if I don't agitate the eye it will be fine..

Hi all,


How are you? It has been a while we have not heard from one another as a group. Some of you seems totally disappeared, :-) while some of you were busy discussing HUNGRILA concept, some were on vacation, some were busy chasing revenue and some were like me work and work and work.


Anyway, I would like to thank you for your well wishes via email, SMS and phone call. Just to update, I have recovered from my "injury" and I am able to walk normally even though I still feel hurt on the spot if I press on it. Indeed yesterday night I went for a 2.4km run and it went well. Having said that, I can "FLY" again... Ha ha ha....


O, by the way, Angeline wrote a very good article regarding the China-ASEAN Youth Camp published on 5th July 08. The tile is "中国青年准备好了， 我们呢？". In English translation, "China's Youths are Ready and How About Our Youths?" I hope you have a chance to read it.


If you need the hard copy, I can pass it to you. Angeline, you may want to send them the URL as the article was a bit large to scan in as softcopy. If you need any English translation, please make an appointment and I will call you via phone if time permit.


Also I read from previous email that many of you went to purchase Erick's album. How is it? Erick, this also means that I have not gotten your CD yet as I don’t even have time to walk into a CD shop. I am just being honest here. :-)


Best regards,
Hong Chuang

Hey Hong Chuang!

Glad to hear that you've sort of recovered! But do take lots of care still~

I didn't managed to read the article 'cause my family don't read nor buy any kinda papers. Hee. So if Angeline could give us the softcopy or URL, it'll be fabulous!

Erick's album was fantastic! Haha. I'm listening to it almost everyday on my iPod. (: Am currently very busy with my club's freshmen orientation camp. >.<>

Love,

Gina

Wah Hong Chuang!


To reply to this email thread at 1.39am.. You must be seriously busy :\ Glad to hear that you're well :]


Googling the news article is relatively easy to find out any url 'coz lots of china news sites have the article! One of them is: http://www.chinanews.com.cn/hr/hwbz/news/2008/07-07/1304428.shtml


Let me put up the original article here and do the translation since I think I'm like, very free :o But my translation skills are not that good huh! Get the basic idea can le lah.. :p


(article in another post)


Phew done. Good night ppl and have a good time reading the article :]

Hey All,


Yes. Thanks Joyce for the translation and pasting the article in the thread. Nice article. I can totally imagine Lawrence speaking with his unique accent.


Hong Chuang, great to know that you are back and alive now. =P Was just talking to Rena about you when I was in NYC office last week. We were wondering if you are better now. Please do take care!


And poor Rena..I've been seeing her at her desk, busy doing all the reports.


Hope to catch up at our upcoming gathering! Take care everyone!


Cheers,
Cindy

 Hi Gina,

Thank. I am a bit jealous that you still able to attend freshmen orientation camp. :-)

Hi all,

I assume you must have received Joyce's email as I am not sure who is in her BCC list. Just in case you don't, I have attached it for your reference. Joyce, your interpretation not bad as I see one para Chinese and one para English even though I did not read them as I know what the article is all about. :-)

So Angeline, is our Youth ready too?

By the way, I heard some of you may have responded in the email but some how I don't get them. Not sure why. May be generation gap! Can forward to me like those after Joyce's email if you still have them....

Also please update some of the happening..... Like some of you have met in in Esplanade don't know do what, some of you have joined new company of one of our entrepreneur, some going for further study like Master in L...something school and so on..... 

By the way, I think with the number of people we had, we can organize a Party. Lawrence, is it true? ha ha ha.....

Best regards,

Hong Chuang

Game's up!


Time to confess what happened. LOL. Hong Chuang, I accidentally had you off the list when I replied with the article, so I just bcc-ed you with the article while the guys are still in the main thread.. I forgot the fact that replying to all emails from the main thread will mean that you will not receive replies. :\ paiseh!


Anthing, just check http://china-aseanyouthcamp.blogspot.com/2008/07/our-quite-long-email-thread.html this particular post because I update it with fresh emails :]


Is outing set on 25th? Some ppl seems to be fine with 27th as well.. :o

Hi folks,

How's everyone?

I went to Beijing recently and met up n had dinner with Liu Kai, Yao Zhanhong and Wang Weizhong who are based in Beijing, and also Liao Liyong who happened to be there from Guangxi with a group of volunteers for the Olympics.

Of course I had to ask them about what happened to all the interviews in Guangxi. They said they will try to pass the clippings to me, but well, since some of them were flying of to Pakistan for youth exchange the next day, i guess we have to wait quite a while.

I managed to google a number of articles. Hey, we even appeared in a Thailand chinese newspaper which picked up the story from Guangxi news. Haha...
Anyway, here's the load of articles. Articles are alternated in blue and black colour for easier reading. Sorry all in Chinese. Joyce dear, are you able to help translate???? =P Thank you very much.

Meanwhile, some of our photos can be found on 
http://www.gxcic.net/news/ztbd/showshyj.asp?id=65630
This is a very long article by Mr Lim, who brought us to play fireworks.
(Hong Chuang was quoted in this article too)

OK, whoever's more tech savvy, can someone also pls upload some of these to facebook to share with our ASEAN friends? coz they r quoted in some of the articles too, esp the long article by Mr Lim.

Have fun reading!

Oh, and HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY TO ELIM!!!!!

There's some birthdays coming up in November. Want to meet up for karaoke again????

:>
