Ong Ghee Siew

Voracious

I've known Ong for more than three years. The first meeting was more memorable for the fact that after that we didn't talk to each other for about 3 months though we're coursemates. Well we met, I talked English to her, she replied back in Mandarin, I tried to see if she understood Cantonese, she tried to gauge my Hokkien, we tried to find common ground in Malay but abandoned it as it was too weird and we never spoke after. Anyway Ghee Siew is a rambunctious spirit, never satisfied to be in one place, always looking for anything interesting to do, full of energy and forever wanting to have fun! Easily likeable and talkative (if you know Mandarin or Hokkien that is). Sometimes taking a bite too much from life hehehe. That sums it up for her:)
