PROMOS OVER!

PROMOS are finally really over!

But doesn't really feel like anything special though... once i remembered there's still A's. Met up with old friend and enjoyed Beach Rd Prawn noodles. yumm.. the thought of having seafood tonight is making me feel like a glutton. Well, enjoy today and slog tomorrow. At least i won't be alone working :D

Slack Saturday

Today was one relaxing saturday in a long time..

Morning was umm, not productive.. besides bathing my dog and blow-drying her..

Had Ice Cream Chef.

Hung out at math tuition

THEN met Tim for comfort food! -Vietnamese Beef Noodles. YUMMY!!!!

I promised my night to be productive so i shall head to study China Studies soon. Since the point of not going for F1 is to study right? ugghh...

EVEN OUT

Let's start with the happy news first. After the hoo-ha over my hair which will be explained later, i'm going to Hong Kong! with my family but not my parents.. it kinda made up  for the horrible experience i had with my hair.

IT'S THE END. WE'RE OVER FOR REAL!

after our relationship of almost 3 years, i guess it's time to move on. took a break of 2 cuts at Next, which i found awesome EXCEPT a bit too short despite mentioning TRIM. i think i have to check the dictionary for that. maybe it's the wrong use of word. anyways, i was rash in making an appointment at 5 pm at klearcuts yesterday. had a horrific hair wash(as compared to Next which is totally heavenly, i've realised) the washer flicked soap onto my face AND kept spraying water into my ears. it was a slipshod job to summarize the painful experience. but i kept my cool as i trusted my hairstylist of 2 plus years to do a decent job leading up to an expected outcome. 

However, to my dismay, it was as slipshod or worst than the wash. he whipped out his scissors and started snipping mercilessly at my thick hair. i was like, okay, this isn't him. but i shall rest on the fact he has cut my hair more than 20 times to do something wrong. the outcome was unimaginable. i walked out looking like a TEN dollar haircut patron. it didn't help that i felt better off going for a manicure rather than this hair therapy that will last me for the next 1-month, making me feel pissed and all. 

i definitely look worse than this. 

almost the end of PROMOS 2008

It's pretty quick, FAST AND FURIOUS. 

i did okay for math. probably below expectation but i did my best at that point of time. spotting mistakes and all.. racked my brains for marks.

exams are boring to talk about..

today had dinner with joalin. (my bestie, whom i have no time to hang out with?) 

i just have to end here. not thinking...

PROMOS ARE HERE!

PERCY PIGLETS: sweetest things ever who accompanied my studying today.
my sweet little gummy pigs :D

Today was a rather fruitful day. It began at 5.50am as usual, though i didn't have class today. Met Andrea for breakfast before heading to school for consultation for Economics.

Studied a little here and there and my economics understanding has been horrifically enhanced. YAY!

Other than the HOT weather, nothing else to shout about the remaining day. Other than me studying Econs tonight again of course :)

i'm so sorry but i just can't help but blog again. well i studied quite alot last night so it's okay right???

i had a lovely sunday. FROLICK again as you would have guess. this time at holland. it's so wonderful. Pastor Josh was speaking about addictions. this is mine!

Me being really contented about my Cup B+1topping: oreo bits

my dear cell... turn out was good today.. and i'm happy too!
my aunt gave me this. and i love bags so YAY!

It's been a wonderful sunday. God has been reminding me time and again what i'm working for.

This is it:
1 Corinthians 9:24-25

Do you know that in a race all the runners run, but only one gets the prize? Run in such a way as to get the prize. Every one competes in the same games goes into strict training. They do it to get the crown that will not last; but we do it to get the crown that will last forever.

studying

i feel like i'm falling
into the arms of a mighty God
It's not just a feeling
but i know He is real

my last entry till aft promos

it has dawned upon me that promos are in less than 10days. i guess its time to get down to business like SERIOUSLY!

Let me have a nice memorable entry :)

Today, Andrea, Tim and I decided to spend our Friday afternoon FROLICKING. If you didn't already know, check this out: http://www.frolick.com.sg/

This photo below, is Andrea trying to pick out the super-delicious mint leaves from her vietnamese roll. what a picky eater... [thats why we're still friends!] A rare scene of me studying... in deep thought. [it's about time]
stinko bus. [too expressive]
the exchange of iPods. [how lovely, i get the newer one!]
here we are: happy Frolicking!

I am adjourning to the study now, for real!

JUST CAN'T WAIT TILL THIS ENDS~ 29 SEPT!

MONDAY BLUES

i'm officially 2 weeks away from promos. i don't feel too stressed. which seems like a bad thing cos everyone is worked up about exams. i like the idea of taking a step at a time and not getting panic attacks that will hinder my progress. Cons being i may end up in a stroll that will be disastrous.

my helpers were telling me about how they got to know their life partners. it seemed foreign to me. knowing someone through pen pals and SMS? will i ever do that?

time to start working on promos. but is this what i'm working for? then i think it isn't worth it. but what's worth my time and effort?

i wanna study!

like seriously...

3weeks to go.

so fast?

how?

i'm trying to be artistic these days. my fav! honey balls...
organic chem is so killing me.... just if you didn't already know.
my most respected teacher of all time. MISS ABRAHAM. i used to fear but now it's all love.. :D
busy weekend.. friday was teachers' day celebs, had much fun seeing old friends and many unfamiliar faces in bedok south(sec.sch). apparently i look different to them from last year. i wonder why... must be the hair. fri night was spent with the kidos at clarke quay with chinese lanterns. my bro was dancing to the very upbeat music across the river from clubs. besides that, he wanted to take pics with strangers posing by the river. very funny.. i feel lazy to go on abt whats happened cos it seems so normal. hope this coming week with be PRODUCTIVE and HAPPY.

-the end-

OVER YOU by Chris Daughtry

Now that it's all said and done,
I can't believe you were the one
To build me up and tear me down,
Like an old abandoned house.
What you said when you left
Just left me cold and out of breath.
I fell too far, was in way too deep.
Guess I let you get the best of me.
Well, I never saw it coming.
I should've started running
A long, long time ago.
And I never thought I'd doubt you,
I'm better off without you
More than you, more than you know.
I'm slowly getting closure.
I guess it's really over.
I'm finally getting better.
And now I'm picking up the pieces.
I'm spending all of these years
Putting my heart back together.
'Cause the day I thought I'd never get through,
I got over you.
You took a hammer to these walls,
Dragged the memories down the hall,
Packed your bags and walked away.
There was nothing I could say.
And when you slammed the front door shut,
A lot of others opened up,
So did my eyes so I could see
That you never were the best for me.
Well, I never saw it coming.
I should've started running
A long, long time ago.
And I never thought I'd doubt you,
I'm better off without you
More than you, more than you know.

slack weekend=more work on weekdays.

SIGH.

YOU ARE GOD ALONE

You are not a god
Created by human hands
You are not a god
Dependant on any mortal man
You are not a god
In need of anything
we can give By Your plan,
that's just the way it is

You are God alone
From before time began
You were on Your throne
Your are God alone
And right now
In the good times and bad
You are on Your throne
You are God alone
You're the only God
Whose power none can contend
You're the only God
Whose name and praise will never end
Youre the only God
Who's worthy of everything we can give
You are God
And that's just the way it is

Unchangeable
Unshakable Unstoppable
Thats what You are

This song was a reminder, more of a rebuke? As if God was telling me that i'm not the source, but He is. Everyday life, expectations have influenced me yet again on the lifestyle i want to have. Just yesterday, i was just telling my friend of my aspiration. It was dry and pragmatic. Something i don't want but yet want to have. i know, things of the earth is worthless, but yet we need it so much.

It was not just the song, but also Psalm 127:2
2 In vain you rise early and stay up late, toiling for food to eat— for he grants sleep to those he loves.

i felt extremely moved by this. it hit me that alot of problems were created by man. who are we to blame God for our distress? i have to stay faithful to my aim in life and not just chase after pleasures. it's said that pleasures doesn't spell happiness.

THANK GOD IT'S FRIDAY

it has been a long long week filled with stuff that happened. what my friend said made a bit of sense, maybe that person who picked up my wallet needed the cash more than me. though im sore, well, he might just have his payback in whatever the form, i do not care. i shall just focus on being a careful schoolgirl.

less than 5weeks to promos. it's like PROMOs. i took 35mins packing my table that day and i realised how much rubbish piled my desk.
E.g: 6 issues of 8 Days, After Eight Dinner mints, DUE way back tutorials, some prune thingy left by dunno who, loads of stuff that will have a better home somewhere else.

i suddenly realised i should stop being slack and leave stuff to the last minute!

i'm feeling elated cos i found out a good number of friends from aussie will be back in dec. the best part is, sch term next year is only starting on 12 Jan 2009. COOOL. won't have the New Year Blues anymore...

LOST WALLET

Today Chee Yang was just telling me he lost his wallet. And now i've lost mine. It has been 4years since i last lost one on a bus. And now history repeats itself. I can't even think how i left it on the bus! For now i'm just praying that SOMEONE at least leaves the stuff behind even if he takes the cash.

HAPPY THOUGHTS

DURIAN SEASON!
my favorite! the texture, mix of sweetness and bitterness in each bite, the sense of satisfaction when i finish 10 seeds in 1 sitting...

TODAY!

hey:) it just hit me that i flung my exam today.

LACKING

1. confidence
2. practice
3. every good thing that isn't list here.

i figure, not all is lost. PROMOS is in 5 WEEKS! my chance to be the light.
