EXAMS ARE OVER. FINALLY.

Yooooooooo! 

Exams are finally over and I feel super relaxed now. The tension and anxiety within me vanished and i'm getting a good night's sleep again. Trying very hard to make my horrendous outbreak of pimples on my forehead vanish too. Its ridiculous. Haven't had such a bad breakout since a very long time ago. I don't know what made it come back but i'm assuming that its cos of the lack of sleep and exam stress. Now that the exams are over, I expect them to vanish as well. Hehe.

It has been a long two weeks or so and loads of things have been happening. Life's pretty good and i'm on my way to enjoy my holidays~ 

Anw, pretty right!! It took me a little more effort than usual to create this amazing breakfast~ Yumyum for my tummy! <3 A good breakfast for me to start my day right cos I was still studying for my finals when I made this. :P

Late night studying with Xiaoqi at Fajar Mac! Ended up missing my last train home and had to cab back. :(

明天以后, an amazing song that's on replay now! ^^

New favourite snack, breakfast! First saw it while watching Joey Graceffa showing everyone what stuff he has in his kitchen and I thought I should give it a try since i'm a really berry person and ended falling in love with it, despite i'm not a huge fan of almonds. Next thing I should try out soon (also influenced by Joey Graceffa) would be almond milk. I think it's going to be really good with my Blueberry Morning cereal. :D 

Oh ya should totally check out who Joey Graceffa is on Youtube. I find him really entertaining. Hehehe. Joey Graceffa

Deciding if I want to dye my hair again~ Looks damn brown under the sun though hehe.<3

Last paper for the sem~ I'm dead tired. Face is just in such a horrifying condition help meeeeee~ TT

Went out with Ben Loo like one day after exams and we went to Tiong Bahru for lunch and then watched The Girl In Pinafore. Typed a really wordy caption on Tumblr cos I didn't want to make it into an individual blogpost here. Tumblr Post

Anw, that place was really cool and I really loved it. Definitely going to check out more of such places in Singapore in the future! Going out on dates and meeting up with friends should not be restricted to only shopping centers! That's just too mainstream and boring~~ 

Okay needless to say, this must be really good otherwise why would I even mention it right~ Cranberry White Chocolate Vienna from Tiong Bahru Bakery. ^^

Managed to catch a glimpse of the sunset with Ben Loo that day. Was saying that the ring of light dispersing downwards (apparently my phone is not giving the view enough justice) from the clouds made it seemed like an angel is about to descend on Earth like what you would see in dramas or movies. xD 

Amazing amazing restaurant in Malaysia. It was the first time I tried eating in a place like this but it was a really fun experience. I can feel my butt vibrating non stop throughout the entire meal cos of the filter system of the "fish tank" that is apparently shaped rather extraordinarily. :P 

Had a good time eating and shopping but I felt really happy being back at home cos I feel more than just secure being back at home. Probably cos I know this is where I belonged to and its the place that I grew up in and its my home. I wouldn't give anything in exchange of my home. I am glad that I was born here and this is where I shall be.  :) 

Actually was just back from Malaysia and i'm like super tired. :P So I guess that's all~ 

Oh probably my favourite video in these few days. By Anthony and Kalel~ Damn cute!! :D 

Baiiiiiiiiii~

Absolutely true. 

EXAMS OFFICIALLY STARTED.

Its 9:46PM, 15th August 2013. Officially the start of my final exams fro the 3rd semester in Poly. Woohoo~ *just kidding* Not that excited actually. 

Today shall be the start of the war between my current modules and myself. Its a one man fight yo~ Hahaha.

Way too tired recently omg. Just stayed at Yanyou's house with Xiaoqi and Shaojun the night before to study. Not quite efficient for me cos I was so freaking sleepy. Zzzz

Haven't been doing a lot of stuff lately, other than studying and watching videos sometimes. Hehehe. WULAS ftw~ <3 WatchUsLiveAndStuff (Anthony and Kalel's channel) (LOVE THEIR VIDEOS)

Awkward retainer-in-my-mouth face. LOL And my ever so disgusting one-eye-closed face. xD 

Despite the crazy mundane lifestyle now, never forget to run! Even though I don't have a lot of time to spare recently, I still feel like running every now and then. I feel like its a need to stay active despite your busy schedules. Partly because I don't want to be the first to collapse when training resumes. I don't even know if I still know how to fence. TT

Anw, this brings me to the thought that I have in , my head for a while now. 

One and a half years ago, I went ahead to learn fencing and I experienced a lot through my training. I would say that i've fulfilled one of my many dreams already. :) Not that I don't want to fence anymore, but I honestly don't see myself continuing to fence after I graduate. Well of course, unless I manage to get into University and maybe i'll join fencing as CCA again. BUT, now I feel like trying something new alongside fencing. And this thing that I have in mind is absolutely nothing to do with fencing but it has also been something that i've wanted to try for the longest period of time. 

I have always envied people who got the opportunity to dance when they were young. Regardless if its ballet or dances of any sort. I find that there is a kind of grace to a dancer's movements and postures. And I envied dancers for that. I wouldn't exactly call mine a passion for dance cos honestly I haven't exactly been exposed to dances of any sort. I purely just admired the grace and elegance. And I honestly wish I could have it. :) 

So, I was thinking if I should go pick up adult ballet while i'm still considered at my prime age. It's probably the final chance that i'll ever have in my entire life LOL. Any older and i'd be as stiff as a rod. Not that i'm very flexible now huh~ Still thinking. :) 

Never thought sports would ever be for me but I went ahead to try out table tennis and fencing. Now, running is part of my routine every now and then. Which is the main reason why I think its still possible for me to pick up a dance. :) 

HAHAHA anyways~ Have a look at the cutest classmates of mine. xD Took by our dear weitian during lunch today. *HONG MAO DAN*

Hatred for our first paper today. It was so damn long and we all had a hard time finishing the paper. TT I didn't finish too. No doubt about that. :( So we ended up tearing the question papers into shreds to vent our anger.xD *Craziest moments* RP ftw~ <3

Wasn't in the best mood so I went for a run alone after school. You know how a run by yourself sometimes can make you sort your thoughts out? It does for me and I enjoy having my silent moment all by myself. Especially on moody days like this. But on other days, i'd love to have a running buddy! :) 

Not a happy girl today. :(

Pretty number of views on this platform huh~ Hehehe. On the 15th of August 2013! :D

Okay got to go to bed soon. I'm really tired today. :( 

Anyways, baiii~

ME WITH AN UPDATE #04 (18TH BIRTHDAY *LEGAL 18*)

Okay this week had been an incredible week and how I wish time hadn't passed that quickly. It was an overwhelming week that I really enjoyed and i'm grateful for. I turned legal 18 this week, on the 8th of August, Thursday. I had an absolutely great time hanging out with the people that matters most to me and of course with my family as well. I am indeed a blessed girl and I really appreciate all that I had, have and will have. <3

This blogpost definitely has ALOT of love.<3

Earlier this week, I met up with jiexuan to study and to try out the chicken rice from Jurong East that he had been raving about non stop and it was indeed worth the attention and the trip wasn't wasted AT ALL. The chicken rice was SO fragrant that you can eat the rice without the chicken and you'll be satisfied. 

And then, not forgetting the duck rice from Westmall's koufu. Seriously, go to Westmall and try out the duck rice. I love the rice and the chilli and the eggs and the meat and whatever, its just everything luh. GO AND EAT! 

Last but not least, we had Mcflurry after dinner cos I gave in to jiexuan's temptations hais.. Everytime tempt me! Oh well~ I enjoyed it anyway~ 

That food hunting day was amazing and cravings were all satisfied! :D

One of the last few pictures I have of myself when I was still 17 years old. I'm assuming that there will be a visible difference between 17 and 18 years old so I took pictures hoping to compare a little. LOL

On the 6th August, had a little surprise arranged by Kaeli and Jiayun, 2 amazing girls that still stands by me after that very day that we met in Fuhua Secondary, 5 years ago. Really went though alot of trouble to prepare for the surprise and I had a shock honestly. It was such an amazing feeling and I felt so loved and cherished that night. It wasn't the cake or the gifts that really mattered. As cliche as it sounds but it was really very heartwarming to know that they still remembered and the took the effort to celebrate my legal 18th with me. I love them alot. I really do.<3

This group of people, the angels of my life, who made a twist to what my life would have been if I hadn't chanced upon the opportunity to get to know them. They added colours to my poly life and changed the way I interacted with other people. It was this group of people that made me enjoy my poly life despite school being really tough. I don't know how I can express my deepest and most heartfelt gratitude for their presence and love for me and for who I am. I was really lucky to be able to embark on a whole new and different journey together with them and I really hope that even as time goes by, we will still be blessed with the bond that brought us all together right at the start. I love you all reform party.<3 Appreciated all that they have done for me and for accepting me when I was so hard to be with and when I was at my lowest.<3

They helped me celebrate my legal 18th on the 7th August and we had korean BBQ at Junction 10 after school. They surprised me with a pretty cake and a card. :') Oh and Joy, not forgetting that I LOVED bananas, bought me a banana and banana milk as a gift. Hehehe. Loved it! I'm definitely somebody that enjoys the feeling of being remembered. Especially when people remembers tiny things about me. Thanks joy! <3 

Anw, really luh. I love them all. And when I say I do, I really do. <3

Xiaoqi! My lost and found buddy as I would like to call it. Hehe. We kind of lost contact like 4 years ago because we went to different secondary schools after PSLE and we didn't really interacted in our first year in poly for some weird reasons that i'm assuming that we both don't really understand either. But we got closer recently and are really good friends now.<3

<3

About 6 years ago or so, I made this little time capsule thinggy with an important childhood friend and we each held onto one. This little bottle contained a short message that she wrote for me. Our deal then was to open up the bottle only when we turn 18. It signifies our friendship and now that i'm 18, I can finally open up to see what she wrote for me back then. It was a pity that we couldn't attend secondary education together in the same school but i'm more than happy to know that we are still in contact even though our lives are vastly different now. 16 years of friendship and still counting.<3

Hehehe failed study date with meixin at jiexuan house.:P

Not forgetting, the most special boy in my life, that played along with Kaeli and Jiayun's plan to surprise me and didn't utter a single word when I maligned him for something that he hadn't exactly done. Made me feel so guilty but touched after that. :') Brought me to watch The Conjuring on my birthday. Hahaha. Yes. A horror film. Scared me pretty badly but I liked the film nonetheless. The story line was pretty good and I would give it a 4 out of 5. :) Watch the review here! They can definitely give a better description than I do. :) The Conjuring review (WatchUsLiveAndStuff by Anthony & Kalel)

Anw, it was a really simple night out and we didn't even have dinner that night. The movie ended later than what we thought initially and it was pretty late by then so we went straight home after watching The Conjuring. Despite it being really simple, I totally enjoyed my time that night. Once again, here comes the cliche part~ Hahaha. 

Never would I thought that he would mean so much to me. And because of what I feared, I didn't quite dare to expect too much out of anything. Which I guess is partly the reason why I managed to learn and deal with a lot of things. We started out as strangers. Never would I thought that we would be where we are today. Well at least it was what I thought way back then. Through these past 8 months, my insecurities popped by time and again. Sometimes I let it take over me, sometimes I managed to stop it in its tracks. But when I failed, he would be the one who give me the confidence and courage to believe, the reason why we are where we are today. He is definitely not the most perfect individual that i've ever came across. Neither is he the most sensitive either. We have loads of things that we disagree on and we are very different individuals. But among all these imperfections and differences, I found the reason to accept and love this very person. Every time we held hands and every embrace makes me feel like I never want to let go of this person. And I genuinely feel that I have learned a lot about myself being with him. I feel like i'm not as critical of a person as I was initially. Its really hard to explain my thoughts in words now but yes, my mentality is definitely way better than what it was before. 

I thank God for letting us meet and i'm genuinely grateful and just overwhelmed with what I have at the moment. 

My mum bought me a huge Macaroon from Au Chocolat for my birthday and it was awesome.<3

Okay so this is a pretty emotional and personal blogspot that i've done in a while. I swear I am trying so hard to find the right words to express myself properly, in the most accurate manner ever but I honestly haven't been writing alot these past two years or so and I deteriorated alot in english. Partly also cos i've always believed that words can't exactly express what we feel on the inside. But trust me. I love all these people in my life, my friends, my family. I feel blessed and I can't thank them all enough for the love and support that they've given me all these while. 

Oh ya, Happy Birthday Singapore. To the success from the past till now and the future.  :)

ME WITH AN UPDATE #03 (BUSY WEEK!)

Gonna let the pictures speak for themselves now. Hehe. :P Photos may seem pretty randomly organised but it was added day by day in order! :) This week has been insanely busy and hectic. Glad that its finally over!

The very first apple that I bite with my own teeth after what seems like eternity. LOL. Nah~ Just kidding. It was 3 years though! Pretty long~ Didn't bite it as a whole apple for a really long time due to braces cos I didn't want to spoil them. Guess people with braces will definitely be able to relate to this. Hehe. 

Bought a new pair of flip flops when my heels finally decided to spoil after my final business image and etiquette assessment. $9.90 only. :P Hehehe. Auntie much. *faints*

Sigh. Last business image and etiquette class. No more formal wear too. :( Kind of missed it! Have always thought formal wear is super nice. Gives ppl that professional feel to their image and I like that. ALOT. ;)

SERIOUSLY PEOPLE. CASSAVA CHIPS ARE THE BEST. I find them way way way way better than potato chips. They are more fragrant and less sickening in a way. I feel sick of potato chips after awhile so I can never really eat a lot of it. BUT, ever since I switched to cassava chips, I seriously can eat like the whole packet at one go. Not sure if its even a good thing but seriously, BEST. 

Not too sure how true are the cholesterol free, gluten free and trans fat free indications on the packaging but its DEFINITELY thin and crispy. FOR SURE. (Unless you tell me you open the bag and leave it open for I don't know how long, then DUH it wont be crispy)

LOVE LOVE LOVE. <3

Totally had 4 tests this week on 3 consecutive days. That was the mess I get into while studying for the tests. Brain drained week indeed. 

Too drained. TT

Oh ya why this picture of Gargamel from Smurf? you may wonder. Cos I felt that he looked 85% similar to one of my lecturer teaching Occupational Health and Safety Hazards. I found it SO funny that I have Gargamel teaching me in class every Friday. LOL. But too bad~ That module is officially over on this friday. No more Gargamel. :( Not that I enjoyed that module but it can be pretty hilarious during lecture at times. Plus, that lecturer was a really nice guy. Its just the module that's a little too dry and a little too boring. 

Okay, maybe not just a little. 

Was playing the Evian baby thing with my friends over dinner one day and I found it really hilarious. Took me a while to actually got the chance to try out the app but it wasn't really smth to be taken seriously. LOL. It was totally for fun and laughter. HAHA. I find it pretty amusing that with different pictures of the same person, there can be different babies "coming out". Look at the 3 that I tried and you'll see exactly what I mean LOL. It is undeniably fun to play with when you are bored though. :)

Totally like a boy I want to cry.TT Looks nothing like me when I was young! I wished I had such big bright eyes though! :P

Randomly made him take a nice photo of himself so I can do the Evian baby thing for him and this was what came out. HAHA.

Honestly, I feel that its not hard to find the similarities from this picture. :P Except for the eyes but yeah he looks way cuter than me as an Evian baby. Can't believe he looks more like a baby girl while I look like a baby boy! Oh well~

<3

A hello kitty game (Hello Kitty Carnival) that I am playing recently on my phone. Its not a super fun game though. Just attending to customers that enters your theme park and earn money etc. Haha. I installed it on my phone just cos it looks cute. :P Girls are girls after all. Hais. ^^

*death stare* xD

Okay honestly I was just playing around with my phone. So don't judge me please! I love how the top picture made my nose looked super sharp and nice. Nicer than my real nose! Kind of sad huh~ 

My homemade lunch by my mum. Egg tofu with rice and ginger chicken with black fungus, chinese mushrooms and button mushrooms. <3 And myself, forever in my comfy Ngee Ann t shirt, shorts and slippers. :P 

BABY BANANA GIVEN TO ME BY JOY. :D IT WAS AMAZINGLY GOOD! LOVE LOVE LOVE BANANAS LIKE TO THE MOON AND BACK. CANNOT RESIST. REALLY. <3

Okay my mum called this pork floss snack "dog shit" LOL. I don't think it looks like dog shit though. I feel that it looks more like the chew chew thing that hamsters chew on to keep their teeth short. LOL. The colour, texture and everything is just SO similar. xD NOMNOM LIKE A HAMMY. 

So I guess the end of the week also marks the end of this post then. Sigh. So much work to do but so little time left till exams. And in less than a week, i'll be turning 18. OH MY TIAN. Legal age alr. Haha. Older and older alr. Tsk tsk. Sometimes I feel that my current way of life, current good friends around me in class, is a birthday gift given to me way way before my birthday was even here. I can't tell you enough, how happy and how blessed I am at the moment. Finding back my primary school friend after being apart for 4 years, not being as lonely as what I used to be is definitely a huge reason to the happiness and bliss I feel. :') 

Sometimes, friends are the only ones that can bring you this kind of happiness that is so pure and direct. Its these people in my life that bring the fun side of me to face the world and let me experience the kind of joy that I thought I lost back then. Despite the hardships of studying, the times that we spent playing and crapping together makes it all so much easier to take. :)

2AO4 RP! <3
