Fighting the demon within.

And it happened all over again.
I supposed I've learnt my lesson.
Gonna be good from now on.

I am standing strong, always will be. :)

--------------------------------------------------

Here's pics from a gathering-cum-"jewellery-workshop" sometime back.




See you guys soon!! Got new stuffs to pass to Geo (Shimmer Solace) and Meiqi's friend (Goldilock). Oh, I just realised everyone in UG ('cept Meng of course) have at least one piece of Little Red Heels. Whee~ I love you guys!! :)

A random picture post

I have a test tmr and I can't seem to concentrate on doing what I have to do!! Blah.

I SHALL, I WILL, I MUST STUDY AFTER I POST THIS UP! HMPH! :/


I finally got my messy tresses chopped!! Alright I mean trimmed really.
I am gonna have long longgg hair so the helmet (mushroom, watever) goes awayyyy.

Pebs at Sentosa (again)!!
She grew so big longgg already but is still my little baby nonetheless!! :)


My lovely partner at Little Red Heels.
It's funny. I swear we don't know what we want to achieve from this.
But we just want to do this and hell, we love doing it! :)

Ok!! Gratified!

I AM OFF TO STUDY!!! :))))))

Divine Today.

Random niceties made my day. :)

Like getting a good grade and very positive remarks for a certain silly assignment. I say s-i-l-l-y because it makes up a mere 2-pathetic-% of our final grade, and the lecturer calls it “reaction” paper but yet demands references from us. Still, yep, that made me happy.

Like witnessing a really pretty sunset with a peach-orange sun in full view on my way home. Though unfortunately, I didn’t have my camera to capture that scene. Being able to bask in that moment was good enough I supposed.

Like boarding the bus of a cute bus driver, whose physical appearance aside, has the basic courtesy to stop for lagging passengers such that all the heaving and panting is worth the while. Courtesy is the new cute.

Like lending a listening ear to a dear friend and above all, is the fact that we were all there and we somehow helped. That’s what friends are for.

Like knowing someone very dear made effort to make tomorrow’s Sentosa trip possible. (Yep! My getaway materialised!!) I appreciate that loads. Tomorrow will be a rolling good time with Pebs on the beach.

Like hearing some even more random and rare niceties from the same someone and that made Happy Today become Divine Today.



Life can be simple.



But school just have to screw that all up. Busy weeks ahead and nope, I ain't giving up! Here’s your daily dose...

Something you will only learn in books #2:

Monochronic culture
: observe linear, clock time
: time is tangible and can be considered saved, spent, wasted, lost, etc.
: schedule dominated – deadlines are important
: punctuality highly regarded

Polychronic culture
: observe cyclical time
: time is less tangible and is seldom considered wasted
: stresses more on relationships, i.e. people
: punctuality not highly priortised



Conclusion: I am a polychronic individual living in a highly monochronic society.

If you don’t already know, I think I am gaining the reputation of the-girl-who-is-always-late in not just one class, but ALL my classes.

Read my expression. It says whatever.


P.S. Divine Today also because msdivineshopper* has launched new items. Go check it out here! :)

Embracing life as an SG undergrad.

You know it is more than a decent sleep you need when you start doing things like walking into walls. Much worse when those are the very same walls you past by on a daily basis for the past fifteen years.

I am expecting to see a nasty bruise on my left shin tomorrow. It is feeling weird when bent already. Great. :
I mean all I ask was a brief getaway. Like Sentosa sounds good enough to me. The plans, very unfortunately, were first disrupted by the heavy rain last weekend, then by pressing project deadlines plus suffocating haze this weekend. Grrr.

It’s near 1am now and I need to go off to finish up some project work. Wokay, that’s life as a Singaporean undergrad.

I shall begin my biannual embracement of books/projects/notes/more notes!! *force a smile* For a start, I shall attempt to share trivia that I picked up from the many read ups I have to do.

Something you only learn in books #1:

According to the annual survey conducted by the Infocomm Development Authority of Singapore (IDA) in 2005, 66% of the households are found to have access to the Internet at home. (That ranks us #14 according to this website.)

Of the 66% of the households aforementioned, nine in ten households in private housing had access to the Internet at home compared to about six in ten households for public housing.


Woot! Let’s hope the moral obligation* to blog will get me motivated to study.

(*I say moral obligation because I realise I still have a regular group of people who faithfully check this blog day after day even though I don’t blog that often anymore. Thank you, lovelies. I try, huh.)

Keep missing me. I am missing you guys too and will do massive catching up when all these shit is done. (Like when? Don't ask.)

And oh, I sound whiny and all. But I am really okay! Charge on, you guys, with whatever worth putting a fight for. Love. :)

A random post to remind you of ME.

You guys are missed...

--------------------------------

On a separate note,

I realised I didn't blog about the MOS night with the 26/02 peeps.

Here's one pic that I (somehow) really like - the ultimate (yea, right) trio. Heh.

We took loads of hilarious photos that night. Haha. Maybe I should blog about it one of these days. ;)

Meanwhile, take care people. Till we I meet blog again! :)
