memories.
unexplained warm, fuzzy feeling deep within after Dry Run 2 and B&B. spent a good amount of time talking about SR with 2 other ex-SRJCians, and they somehow brought back good memories. come to think of it, i hardly have bad memories about the place. all i can remember are good moments. 2009-2010 were really the best 2 years of my education. supper with the Bishan kids thereafter, and we ended up at an amphi-theatre talking. more of bitching i'd say. i missed hanging out with the Events'13 people, i still remember our bitching session at KFC after our weekly meeting last year. ah, memories. 'twas a good day :))

Sunday.
happy Sunday! was supposed to meet Y for a study date but somehow shopping entered the equation. long story cut short, we were supposed to meet at 12nn at Tanjong Pagar. after my service, and after she had finished some errands in town. when service was about to end, she told me she was only reaching Tampines int. which resulted in me heading down to meet her in town instead. and.. you can fit the rest of the pieces together.
part of the reason why we wanted to head to Tanjong Pagar was cause I wanted to have the awesome macarons at Icon. but when we finally wanted to buy some, we realized the place closed at 6pm on Sundays. and all these while, we were happily studying at Toms -.-" genius i swear.
but my night got better when S whatsapped me out of the blue! :D :D haven't seen him for almost 3 years; we kept wanting to meet up but we were too busy :/ teehee my night was made almost instantaneously, missed him so damn much!! can't wait for 27th Nov to come, I'm dying to meet him heh.
and while working on our NTR 110 presentation, i realized that most of the slimming products are all a gimmick. exercise works wonders, guys. just saying.
right now, I'm uber hungry. I wanted to sleep the hunger away, but i procrastinated a lot before hitting the shower, and now my hair's taking eons to dryyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy.

Mid-way.
Kinda happy today, no idea why.
Done with SOC 293's test #1 and PSC 104's discussion-leader assignment. The latter went pretty well, I must say. Although the Prof spoke a lot today. Not complaining tho', at one point he looked at us and went, "I hope I'm not interrupting y'all, I know it's your turn to lead the discussion." Felt like telling him that he could keep up the good work and carry on. Esp since D and I were kinda tired. In fact I started stoning even before class started D:
Was initially worried cause when he started class, all 3 of the guys who I was counting on to speak up weren't around. 1 came 5 minutes later and I heaved 1/3 a sigh of relief. Pretty glad that other people spoke quite a lot today; had a nice discussion. Yay! ☺
SOC 293 wasn't that okay I think. Idk, she played around with the words a lot, and midway through I seriously started stoning ._. Nehmind, it's only 10% of my total grade.
As much as I detest being graded for 2 modules on the same day, I'm kinda glad everything's over. 'cause I get to sit back, relax and chill while almost everyone else's busy mugging for tmr's Sociology of Food test.
Feels like Friday already. Pretty sure tmr will be an awesome day.
Feel like going to bed now. But it's only 10:15pm. Maybe I shall take a nap before doing some advanced readings. We'll see. Labels: its a good day., UB.

Merry Christmas! ♥
(love this pink tree outside Orchard Central. maybe just because its pink :D)
Christmas somehow feels different this year. There's hardly any mood for it, idk why. But no matter what, thank you God for sending Jesus down as a baby boy more than 2000 years ago, thank You for the most awesome Christmas gift anyone could possibly ask for.
Spent Christmas eve with Nelson the snail! Town was mad crowded, seriously. Oh but there were mysterious empty patches here and there. Weird much huh. And it always drizzles every time we were btw Plaza Singapura and Orchard Central. When we're elsewhere, nah the sky is silent. Like annoying only. It was drizzling when I reached Lorong Chuan station too, so essentially I was in the rain 3 times on Christmas Eve. #justsaying
Merry Christmas everyone! :D Labels: its a good day.

Double weekend.
I can't believe I spent half of my Deepavali holiday in bed. This feels like Saturday to me, cause I don't have classes tmr too. Double weekend in a week, awesome or awesome? :D
Manhattan Fried Seafood Platter was a money-sucker. Thank goodness he bought it for 50% off. Still, it wasn't really worth the $25 in my opinion.
Haato-ed for desert and slightly past 8pm, we said we'd go home soon. More than two and a half hours and a ridiculous Whatsapp conversation later, we were still sitting there by the river. The conversation btw, cannot be taken seriously. Hahaha Miss Liu gave me a shock with her comment on the album. To prevent further miscommunications, I shall not post it here. It's on my Facebook if anyone wants to read the exchange.
Shall prolly continue on my MUS 113 journal after dinner. Heh J & M have been nagging at me to get started. This weekend will be a change, no mass ODACians meet up.
And I feel like eating roti-prata. ): Labels: its a good day.

gitters.
Weekly outing with the colleagues on Thursday, random dinner with Miss Liu on Friday!
I think she has sixth sense or smth, she always happens reads my blog whenever I post some emo-nemo shit. Turns out that she totally thought too much this time around. Haha it was super ridiculous please, even she admitted it after asking me. Caught up alot, exchanged secrets ^^
Its people like her that make me feel superduperultramega loved, esp since she has the awesome ability to read my mind. Yes I know I'm easily readable. But she can tell what my face doesn't show and honestly, I love her more cause of that.
How many teachers text their students to ask if everything's alright after they read the student's blog? Actually, she's more of a friend than a teacher to me :)
come to think of it, she fits the bill more accurately than Mr Ong for that 30Day Challenge thingy. And Miss Liuuuu! Please take care of your health!
All the laughing seriously made my week end off on an awesome note.
Saturday's wedding was simple yet classy. Super sweet! Was an usher and I said countless "Good morning" and "Welcome"s that morning. Tagged along as daddy and mummy went to the polls otw home and pfft I couldn't even get close to the place. Attempted to pack my room but after a while I found myself seated on my bed playing TinyTowers. Just as I decided to head to lalaland for a while since DumbFriend was too ill to meet me, 2 of my Whatsapp group conversations sprung to life.
Eagerly anticipated 10pm's show on CNA, but after a while I conceded and agreed to let my brother study till 12mn before we started watching again. Within a few minutes, I totally KO-ed in his room.
When I woke up,
me: announce alrdy?
brother: not yet. go to sleep lah. Thank goodness I did, cause I know I won't have the stamina to last till past 3am. First thing I did when I woke up this morning: check Twitter's timeline. Following STCom and CNA has it's benefits :D
Church, and lalaland-ed for a while before meeting DumbFriend for dinner! Her friend Deanna joined us later on :)
Wanted to buy a bag for school but to no avail, I hope the one I saw at City Plaza's still available. Like chio only sia. Oh and I exercised self-control today! Only spent $7 at Bugis Street. I'm getting better at this.
AND I SAW MICHELLE WHILE CROSSING THE ROAD! We stopped for a hug. Yes, in the middle of the road HAHAHA. And she missed her bus as a result :/
Miss her like crazeeeeeeeey!
And so. Tmr marks the beginning of a new chapter in my life: University. Apprehensive much, but I'll just commit it to Him and allow Him to see me through. I'm always comforted whenever I recall what happened during the lead up to the A's right up to the very day i submitted my Uni applications. I know He's present in my life. Yes Lord, let Your will be done :) It's finally back to school after about 9 months. It's been an awesome 9 months, with me earning money to finance whatever I've been wanting to do since I started JC. Sadly I didn't get to save much but honestly, I'm glad I did all the things I've wanted to do. This gives me greater satisfaction than seeing a lot of money sitting in my bank account. After all, it's the experience that really matters :)
Start of school: new environment, new teachers, new friends, new experieneces.
And how can I forget?
POCKET MONEY :D
On a sidenote, if your name happens to be in this list, please take note that I miss you a lot.
1. Vanessa Chee
2. Regina Koh
3. Charmaine Chung
4. Grace Sung
5. Jasmine Wong
6. Cheryl Tay
7. Aw YunJia
At least I'm meeting majority of them soon! :')
Okay I need to sleep. Before people like YuanLin start scolding me hahaha.
See you in the morninggggggg! And I haven't even packed my pencilcase. Neither have I decided what to wear. At least classes start at 12nn.
Goodnight world; University, here I comeeeee!
Labels: i love my friends :), its a good day.

Ice-cream!
Was freezing in my room today, but I had a sudden craving for ice-cream. Casually mentioned it to JiaYing and a while later, she passed me a mini pint of Haagen Dazs. :D



Going to City Plaza with her later! :')
And, I hate losing things that're impt to me. Time to look for a new one, sigh.
Feeling the Monday blues today, at least its only 2 days to the end of the work week! Labels: its a good day.

Awesome day, got my shoes already! Sucks when you're on a hunt for the shop that carries the design you want in your size, only to learn that you're arch aint suited for that model AFTER countless, 'oh sorry we don't have it in 6.5, only 7'. Nonetheless, pleased with my eventual purchase! WanRu, we can start running already! :D Hahaha Char was freaking cute. "Okay today I'm not gonna buy anything." 30secs later she walks into a shop and buys her backpack. Pfft. And epic fail, she wanted red sneakers and a red backpack. Eventually, she bought denim blue sneakers and a hot pink backpack.
Gardens-ed for dinner with Jasmine, and we had Udders before Chomp Chomp cause it was just way too crowded.
 Caught up LOADS. Retarded girl hahahaha. She's amazed that I can eat chicken wings without using my hands and yet ensure the bones are clean. Cleaner than the girl who used her fingers HAHA. I was so full that I refused to eat and started replying my Whatsapp messages instead but after a while she had to leave cause it was the 7th month. She took my phone and helped me to reply while she made me eat my chicken wings and haha she spammed WanRu with animal pictures -.-" Anyhow only luh hahaha. Walked home and otw, we met Cheryl! Omgggggggg. :D
Happy only heh.
love you loads neighbour! Even though our meetups are always postponed for months :(
Looking forward to VP bonding session on Tuesday! :D Plus a run in the morning. This week feels awesomeeeeeeeeeeeeee.Labels: its a good day.

Tiny towers.

If I had the amount of coins/bux as this person who took the screenshot, I'd build more floors and upgrade the lift, really. So. I've gotten Charmaine and one of my colleagues hooked on Tiny Towers. And apparently Criss has started playing too! To be honest, its a super pointless game. I have no idea why its's addictive. I can sit there the entire day just looking after my Bitizens and restocking the shops. Have to give credit to the creator of the game for making such a pointless game so entertaining. Even for youths/young adults. If we earned money as easily in reality, I'll be frigging rich by now.
Reality sucks.
And my appetite is seriously screwed up. I know what's coming up. Suckxz.
Countdown to the first day of school: 25 days. I'm more excited than apprehensive actually. Apparently there's an overnight camp too :)
Right now, I'm bored at work.Labels: its a good day.

Random tweet replies really make your day esp if its someone close to you whom you've kinda been out of touch with for some time.
 Miss you J! :) (Why do so many people's name start with J?!)
Anyway, I think I'm growing fat. I have good food almost every other day. Just today itself, I had Macs for breakfast and Pizza Hut for lunch. Hahaha in the end we couldn't finish the food and resorted to playing 种机密吗 to clear the food.
We were so scared of being unfortunate round after the 5th or 6th round. Ate 5 drumlets/wings, omg. Supposed to be 7, but we reached a point whereby we didnt wanna eat anymore chicken, so we reserved them for tea break. Long story; we kept them in my 'office' and guess what. We forgot about it until I was packing up to go home. I opened the cupboard to keep my things and woah the smell was uber strong. And the 2 of them had after work plans, I was the only one heading home.
Ended up bringing the 6 drumlets/wings home, thank goodness my parents wanted them. Else I'd totally die from overconsumption of chicken.
I'm determined to lose weight before school starts! So I have about another month to do so.
Oh speaking of which, I think I'm a genius. I had so much fun when I was unemployed, I kept putting off the urgent things: clear my room, set up my furniture and do up my photo wall. Urgency in ascending order. Now, idk where I'm gonna dig out time from. Rawr.
And, omg its damn annoying. I've had SEVEN job offers after I signed my contract. No joke. They just keep coming. I got another missed call earlier on, I won't be surprised if they want to offer me a job. Sucks I tell you. One of them is an $8/hour job. What's this -.-" Did they take one month to open my email, read my resume, look for my number, dig out the telephone, set it up, write a script, gather enough strength to punch in my number or what. -.-"
Glad I went for a swim today! :') Looking forward to tmr's after work plans! :D Labels: its a good day.

black sheep.
Hi from the office!
It's Day 5 of work! Apart from the slightly further workplace and the lower pay, I honestly prefer this job. In all aspects. Udders craving, durian craving, and I think there’s also a RotiPrata craving. Bleah.
And, nice clothes should stop being so cheap. Cause I’ll be tempted to get them. At least I seldom end up at Tampines after work. If fate brings me there again, I’m so getting that top.
Oh btw, I think www.chersamme.com has nice clothes! If not for the fact that I told myself I’m gonna save money, I’d so buy their tops and dresses. Urghhhhhhhhh. Okay at least this shows that I can have self-control. :D Let’s see how much my pay cheque is before deciding if I should get their clothes!
Anw, its been so long since I experienced Monday Blues, and the fatigue almost every night. Oh and the stressed feeling every morning when you stare at the clothes in your wardrobe and have totally no idea what to wear. Sucks that this is an office environment so I can’t really wear what I did on lazy days back when I was in StarHub.

Check out today’s lunch! :D To the sponsor, thank you! Although I have totally no idea who you are.
Life is good. bukesiyi meetup this Thursday, meeting the ex-workmates for dinner on Friday! And its WillRun this Saturday. Meh, I haven’t ran at all since.. 2 months ago? Gosh. WHY DID I SAY I'D RUN 5KM??Labels: its a good day.

mountain-high, valley-deep.
 (okay heh I got bored of looking at papers during work)
I see so much paper at work everyday. The amount, waaaaay more than all my A Level notes I tell you. But at least I get my privacy and all, given my overly spacious office. Although it can get kinda boring at times ): Treetop walk today! And we were all in different colours! :) Haven't had such a workout for goodness knows how long. 2 Lt Lim N D was such as ass, he asked if we wanted to go see the reservoir. We agreed, thinking there was a route out afterwards. Guess what, there wasn't. Pfft. Thomson Plaza-ed for lunch later! Ate a budget meal together, for once. Hahaha our expenditure on food's seriously high! Headed out in a t-shirt and jeans shorts after a shower, and I was feeling overly-casual. Idk why it feels weird haha, guess I haven't headed out in that attire for prolly 17 million years. Met KuangJie for impromptu dinner just now! He was hungryboy92 and I decided to be nicegirl92 since I didnt really have dinner. Tried to find RotiPrata in Serangoon Central to no avail and lazyboy92 refused to walk/bus to Chomp Chomp or The Prata House. Tsk. Settled for McCafe eventually. I love staying near good friends; we can randomly head out somewhere as and when we feel like it! Haha KTM last Sunday, dinner today. (Y) Oh random, I was looking at D that day, and I honestly feel that C's superduperultramega blessed to have him. D's a freaking good catch I tell you. Felt this way sometime ago and I was reminded of this fact last week. I really respect D a lot, serious. I miss those almost-weekly dinners C, D and I used to have last year. ): Gonna do my BibleStudy for class tmr and head to bed; meeting Charmaine after church tmr! :D Labels: its a good day.

fame and fortune.
Day 1 of work tmr.
I've actually forgotten the headache of having to decide what to wear every single day. Sucks I tell you; thank goodness I can wear shorts to school.
Signed my contract today and gosh, Andrew Road's inconvenient. Cabbed there, and I felt lost in the building cause some doors to the stairs slammed loudly and the echoes were freaky. And there wasn't any receptionist at the HR office; I resorted to leaving the office and calling the person who contacted me. Like ulu only. Some parts of the place looks nice though!
Wished I was working at Caldecott Hill though, cause its nearer to my place as compared to Chai Chee. But guess I can't complain cause at least I have a direct bus to my workplace. Not that I don't have any to Caldecott Hill, just that I'd have to walk quite far from the bus stop.
In any case, glad that my bank account won't be depleting anymore. Gotta cut down on spending if I want some extra cash while I'm schooling!
Hope I can make friends at work! If there are even people my age working there!
Honestly, I'm nervous esp since... [Okay it's for me to know and for you to find out]
Hate having to live up to people's expectations. The past 2 years were enough.
Oh and guess what, all 3 agents from Recruit Express called me AFTER I signed my contract. Pfft. Labels: its a good day.
|
|
above all.
Why is it so hard to find a job? >:(
Although I've to admit that I totally love the feeling of being able to lay in bed till the Sun shines on my pillow, forcing me to get up.
But I still need a job, more than ever before. Sigh.
That aside, met Bobo for dinner and desert just now! Thanks for the treat! :)
Caught up, and he freaked me out with all his army stories about killing the animals while he walked me home.
Freakkkkkk. Damn gross I tell you! Worse part is when you have to eat the animal you killed. Like omg wth. And laying out the organs as bait for wild boars. Disgusting. Urghhhh. Thank goodness I won't have to do that.
Tmr will be a better day.
I'm not too sure when it starts but take care, you :') Labels: its a good day.

advances.
To-do list:
1. Get a job (semi checked cause I went to RecruitExpress today)
2. Get a tan (double and triple check)
3. Trim my hair
4. Make new spectacles
5. Get toothpaste for sensitive teeth (check)
6. Get stuff from IKEA (check)
Time's passing by waaaay to quickly. School's starting next month, woah. Not that I'm not looking forward to it, but there's this part of me that feels damn apprehensive about everything.
Was at NTUC with Char this afternoon and we realized that there are many kinds of toothpaste for sensitive teeth o.o
And I really need my specs soon cause my current specs has degree for myopia and I think my eyes will get myopia again if I continue wearing it. Plus my longsightedness has worsened. Urgh I hate that part of my genes.
Partially done packing my room, and I guess that's a plus point. OH and I walked through Bugis Street & Bugis Junction today without buying anythingggggg. Plus there was no one to stop me cause I was by my lonesome. :D
The job interview prior to that was kinda not like an interview but nuh-uh, don't like it although the benefits and all seem so tempting.
And. Why do people make advances so damn fast? Nuh-uh not gonna get me. Too bad for you. Labels: its a good day.
