Hey there ! :3 It's been so long since I've blogged about everything. Man, I need to start writing =_=. This is all solely for me to look back into when I grow older hahaha! So I hope Blogger isn't shutting down in the years to come!

I read back some of my posts, and I reminded myself of soompi! Since the holidays just started, might as well start reading back those disgustingly good romance stories HAHA.

I figured that my vocabulary has decreased dramatically ever since I've entered Poly. When I tried to explain something, I just can't seem to recall the word. Miss Deborah Chai, I need you back as my English Teacher! xD Gosh. Even the names of the teachers who taught me in secondary school are disappearing bit by bit.

I still do remember Mrs Teo Hui Lin, my Literature teacher. Miss Shekhu is unforgettable. Oh dear...I seem to forget the full names of my Biology and Math Teacher. Dear me. Memory loss at such a young age. I hope I won't get to forget my friends any time soon. It scares me to think that my brain might just shut down and erase everything.

I had a recent quarrel with my close friend not so long ago. We rarely bicker. But the latest one was my fault. I got angry over a dumb Redondo biscuit stick. =_= Old habits of being-selfish-because -I'm-an-only-child die hard. Not like I can use that as an excuse for my overbearing personality.

I think I hit a nerve when I indirectly/directly accused him of bitch-talking behind my back because of this incident. I found myself unreasonable. He probably changed his thinking about me right about now. Haha.

Anyways, to update on what happened in my life.

I entered this 2XU Compression Run of 12km with Hanafy, Shafie, Alvin and Pravin. I was so damn proud of myself! My first marathon ever, and I'm happy with my results. :) My average timing was always 20mins around school, which is 3.4km.

I saved a screenie for it just to prove it :)


Now towards SP life...

Sharul left SP Gym to work elsewhere, which is very sad :( But I still do keep in contact with me via SMS and WhatsApp ^_^. He's doing fine, and I hope he comes back soon. Shah is still working there from time to time, but not as often. Two new gym instructors came to SP. One is a Ex-SP student, the other I'm not so sure, but he's very friendly.

His name was Ismail if I recalled correctly. He's like a brotherly figure over there. Sharul was my father figure, and Shah is like a playmate. xD I wonder if anyone is reading this.

I recently joined SP Dragonboat! At first I was invited by Esmonde to the camp. I entered the camp knowing that I won't want to join the sport, but things happen.

The company and vibe I received from the camp were just so energizing. I made new friends whom I don't want to lose. I kind of hesitated for some time, and decided that I would try the girls' first trainings.

That made it worse. I got so attached to the girls who joined, and of course some of the seniors who were so darn kind to us. And there are some seniors who are fierce like hell, but that's supposed to be the point haha.

Either way, I finished 3 weeks of training with SPDB, with a one month break to boot. That means self-training with my girls, and maybe with some of the guy juniors as well. I still have my Crazy Frog team in there! No one quitted from what I've heard. I'm so proud of all of you ^_^/.

And I'll be having a combined Teen Titan and Ultraman (my group) outing this coming Thursday. Ultra Titans Outing ! :) Hope I don't get too tanned at Sentosa!

Ah yes, before I forget. Due to my lack of writing and keeping track of the events in my life, this achievement almost slipped out of my mind.

I joined an online contest of my all-time favourite RPG arcade game Lunia :D
They wanted fan art of their game characters. To be honest, the submission I submitted was drawn months ago. And I was one of the winners ^_^

My first win in cyber history. I won a lvl 70 Libra Cash Item Set, but I sold it two weeks later. Anyways, here's a screen shot as well as a link "here" to the actual forum. This will surely bring back memories when I start retrospecting and find this blog again.

Also, I created a thread to showcast my drawings to fellow Lunians as well :D . Click here to see.



On a last note, hello to the older me :)

Learn to treasure what you have. Hold on to it, and never take it for granted, not even the littlest of things.

Regret
Written at Thursday, January 6, 2011 | back to top

I've hurt someone I cared for yet again. He really meant no harm, but I was so particular with the way he phrased his words that it lit a spark in me. I wish I can be more understanding to him.
I really want to wish that he's the one for me, because he accepts my all, my everything. But I did not do the same to him.

If only I can accept the way you talk, the way your personality is so different from mine, and the way you love. Maybe I am still immature about all these. I wish that I can grow up to comprehend more, and pray that in the years to come, if fate doesn't forbid, that you'll be by my side until death do us part.

I actually wanted to make a blog post solely because I wish to remember this one manga that has touched my heart and made me cry on the spot. Guess I am too emotional with my past nowadays. In fact, I've been emotional ever since I received a special orange book, with precious thoughts written in it on my 18th birthday.

Oh, how much I cried on that day. I cried and cried as I turned every page, sitting at a corner in my bedroom toilet. I didn't get to finish reading the book. I am afraid to pick it up and read it again. I know that if I do, I would cry myself to sleep.

I hope that day will come when I get to know the full story; The full story of his heart, poured into that little orange book with meanings that only I can understand.

"Though all my words are fading, I'm begging you please don't go away. I'm softly saying sorry now."

Assignments, assignments, assignments. The deadlines are closing in, I have avatar requests piling and left unattended in GaiaOnline, and I need to set my priorities right.

Of course school work is more important, but I'm disappointing my Gaia customers. Which totally sucks. They paid me in advance too (not real cash :D. i know, it's stupid).

Now that I joined Poly 50 and tried to gym with my classmate, Khidir, time's running out for me. But even so, I'm still having fun. It's only crunch time and deadlines that give me stress. Drawing classes is so fun to be in. 3D Fundamentals....man . I really need to work on that. I gave up on my Eiffel Tower and moved on to modeling an Audi car.

We had a school outing today! :D . TO THE ZOOOOOO. Got into groups of 4. Me, Hui Ting, So Nam and Hafiz. It was blazing hot. I got to stalk a stork, see a pony, touch a goat, eat kulit ayam, and be a portable cold storage for my teachers, class and course mates.

Who could resist my one box of strawberries ? ^-^ . I'm happy I went to this trip today. I got to know Vanessa better. She seemed pretty distant before, so it's good to know that she's opening herself up. I hope I can try to get to Jing Yue too.

I got to do a lot of sketches for my Drawing assignment! . 30 random sketches of anything around you. I think I did like 5-7 drawings today already. A very good start :D. The deadline's pretty far though. Like 31st August. 2 months and 10 days left xD .

DMIT club is going to have an Annual General Meeting (AGM) on 3rd June if I'm not wrong. I NEED TO SHOP FOR FORMAL WEAR. Like damn. This is killing me. Another stupid thing to add on to my to-do list.

3DF. I need to do it soon.

My friend introduced me to this awesome fanfiction/novel site and she gave me some links to a few good, completed romance stories.

Oh gosh, they make my heart melt like ice in a barbeque pit. I would love to look back at this post and read them all over again when I come to forget about these stories. :D . I have quite a number of recommendations, but so far, these are the good ones.

(P.S you need to have an account to view it, so go register! you won't regret it, EVER. especially girls )

A Year And A Day

Summary: Merci, being the only single woman in her family, is constantly stressed by her relatives to get a boyfriend. Trying to vent her stress, she carelessly called a private hotline and requested that she wanted to hire a husband. One week later, her husband knocked on her apartment door.

Covered In Shadows (sequel to A Year And A Day)
Summary: Kei is a IIA agent. He was in the middle of his mission when he found Aslynn and 'accidentally' took her hostage. Months later, he was saving her from a slave trader's hideout. And yet a few days later, she was his wife. Click to see how the story unravels in a very interesting twist.


Twisted Emotions (sequel to Covered In Shadows)
Summary: N/A. I didn't read it yet, but I bet it's going to be awesome.


Seriously, I summarise the stories as if I'm marketing a product. But it's all good.

A must read ! ^0^
A series of events
Written at Sunday, April 25, 2010 | back to top

Well, what to say first? So many things had happened. I'll say them one by one, so this post will be quite long.

First of all, O levels. My mum accompanied me to school on the day of my O level results release date. She went up with me to take my results from my form teacher. To my absolute delight, I love what I saw on that slip of paper. My mum even let out a few tears. I know I didn't really put my all into this. Heck, I didn't even study for any of it, but I can say for sure: God blessed me.

This was my result:

English: B3
Art: B3
Combined Science(Chemistry/Biology): B3
Combined Humanities(Geography/Social Studies): B3
Maths: B4
Literature: B4
Chinese: C6

What more could I ask for? Truthfully, I prayed to God, saying things like 'I know I don't deserve it'. I feel as if those results weren't my own. It's just so surreal. But it is.
And after that, my mum and I did all those poly paperwork.

We visited SP openhouse one day. Mummy wanted to sign me up for a special talent thingy; It's to improve my chances of getting into the course I want. This funny scene happened.

Mum: I want to sign my daughter up for this special talent programme.
Counter Lady: Ok. Did your daughter win an award any individual competitions for the school?
Mum: No.
Counter Lady: Did she participate in any international competitions?
Mum: No.
Counter Lady: Did she win any awards or trophies in a national competiton?
Mum: No.
Counter Lady: Then I'm sorry, you cannot apply for the programme.
Mum: WHY? I believe my daughter is talented. What does winning any trophies or awards has got to do with my daughter's innate abilities? ......

A supermum. That's what my mum is. The counter lady was a bish right ? HAHAHAHA.

Anyways, on to no.2 .

I broke up with my ever first boyfriend exactly one week before Christmas (which is 18 December 2009). Our anniversary was on March 17, 2008. Yes, we've almost been together for 2 years. I was the one who initiated the breakup. Why? I got sick and tired of the monotonous feel in the relationship.

He is a guy who never dares to say anything and everything about him unless I force it out of him. He never initiates any conversation unless it's something scientific like what you see in a biology textbook. He may be smart, but not street smart. I'll give you an example.

He came to fetch me back home with my mother on my Graduation. When the taxi came, he opened the taxi door and went inside FIRST. My friends were around me. They knew he was my boyfriend. I was utterly embarrassed. UTTERLY. Call me sensitive, high-standard bitch, whatever. A guy who isn't a gentleman, I'm sorry but you won't survive long with me.

But nasty things aside, he did have some good points like coming to my house and travelling from west to east. He helped me study for my O levels too. Only for Science and Maths though.

On to the next one.

I went to the DMIT Freshman Orientation Camp! (FOC) :D . You have no idea how fun it was! My group was named 'Long John'. The members in it were : Hao Ming, Prescilla, Daniel (moo), Zhi En (boyboy), Shawn, Zhi Kang, Justin, Elaine, Shafikah, Syafiq, So Nam, Jing Yue and me :D.

Even though we weren't the best of teams, but we sticked together even after the camp :D . Well, most of us did. I was chosen as a best camper! Can you believe it ? x333 . I know my hyper starfish Xin Ying was a best camper too! .

When the official Freshman Orientation Programme (FOP) set up by the school, and every freshman of DMIT had to attend, the campers rocked it. Like seriously. Only the people who attended FOC got all excited and on the ball. I was called on stage too >;3 . That's how I got to know Kenny :3 .

We totally owned the challenge ! Woooo . I think we were both famous for our names after that. OHO . So thick skinned. Not a good thing.

I love Delconi's datou pictures :D.

Poly life is so fun at this point of time. I wish it could be like this forever. My classmates are awesome, my seniors are awesome. It's good to know that my persistence to get in to SP is a good struggle :D.

Edited: Oh, and in case I didn't get this through, KC choir had GOLD for the first time in history on my graduating year. How awesome is that :) . And I even took part in it.

I'm so proud to have taken part of choir SYF 3 times in my 5 year stay in KC.
