We spend too much time with our heads down and hearts closed



Cedele
Smoked Salmon and Brie Sandwich
Bread: Mixed Grain


Super guilty of buying magazines, knowing I have no time to read them. (And on top of that, been hunting for issue 59 of Frankie when I haven't finished my first ever copy of it)




Hi!
So my second asos order came! I love these two items even more, just that it came along with a disappointment. The WHITE shirt had brown stains on the back and I am just so so disappointed that they would send an item that was in obvious bad condition. I don't want to sound unforgiving but it's the time spent browsing, finally placing the order, two weeks wait and anticipation, the travel down to the post office for collection with even more anticipation and excitement (two days at that because I forgot the collection slip the first time) that build up to this immense disappointment >:-( I'd better get an exact replacement and not a "Sorry that item/ size is no longer available" because I love that top so much!!!

Just now after school, I went to get my lens changed because I am 25 degrees more myopic on each eye:( Then had lunch at Cedele and on the way back, I fell asleep on the bus until it reached the interchange. I was rudely awoken by a loud "OI!!" from the bus driver. And it took me a good few seconds to realize what was happening and where the OI came from. Sigh.. I mean..there was surely a nicer to way to wake someone up. Why can't people be nice. Not to mention my nasty experience at the mall toilet with the person who replaces the sanitary bins in the morning. REALLY don't want to get into it.

On a freakin happy note, TRIP TO KOREA CONFIRMED!!! Trying hard to keep it in till the exams are over but haven't been able to contain the excitement! The first day's going to be just me and Amelia while Ji Eun arrives the following night. So.. I foresee the overuse of broken korean, and getting lost every step of the way without the Korean on the first day. Still, STYLENANDA/ ALL THAT CLOTHES AND SHOES/ MYEONGDONG/ HONGDAE/ DONGDAEMUN/ CUBE CAFE AND HOPEFULLY NAMSAN TOWER AND HANGANG, WE COMING FOR YOU~

For now, I need to take a nap before the grind goes on. There are no TGIFs. #lifeofastudent

Much needed holiday


Bratwursts// Tomatoes// Potato Salad// Mushroom Risotto
 
Hello!
Prepared dinner with mom yesterday for the guests Pei Wen and Tiande hehe they're mom's cousins.
Second time preparing the Mushroom Risotto and it was so much better than the first. I think I am now confident of cooking this dish any time.
 
The weekend has been...as good as it looked in the previous post but unfortunately stressful at the same time. I always have this inner contemplation (almost war) between "I can handle stress well" and "I cannot handle stress at all". There are times where I could plan my agenda well and get by everything steadily. But on some days, I just cram all the things to be done in my mind and breakdown and cry because it feels like there's too much to be done. The fear of not being able to complete stuff. Like to this day I am unsure of my ability to cope with stress. And all these stress I put unto myself. My mom doesn't give me stress. My family doesn't give me stress. They're the "Just do your best!!!" kind of people.
 
On Friday at the hotel, I spent almost the entire day completing one assignment (did I mention?), that I couldn't revise for a test on Monday. On Saturday, I made the wrong decision of going out when I really should have stayed home to study. So nearing the end of the day I just felt like I did a really wrong thing and felt really terrible. On Sunday, I woke up really early to revise but it was Mother's Day and Aunt's Birthday too so there was celebratory lunch and dinner. And the night before I was preparing cards for mom and aunt past midnight before I revised a little then went to bed. So throughout this weekend I think I broke down and cried enough times for this muscle under my left eye to be aching yesterday and today. No wonder they said frowning required more muscles than smiling. I'm sure crying requires so much more. Then came Monday and the test was just a fill in the blanks simple shit that wasn't worth any stress at all. But then again, good that I didn't know and went and studied the topic thoroughly.
 
Today's like a really much much needed holiday for me to catch up on revising some work. SO I won't constantly feel like I'm falling behind. A lecture quiz this Friday covering a big chunk so I'm off to load more stress onto myself. Just hopefully I can cope with it this time.
 
By the way, HAPPY BELATED MOTHER'S DAY to every single mommy! It's amazing the sacrifices they make for us. I want to say that they're the most selfless beings out there. (At least to their own children)
Okay byeeee:)

Graph paper nails(?)
 
Hi!!
It's May! And it has been great to me so far..I mean..being able to meet Jenn today was just surreal. And nothing short of amazinggg!! She was in a hurry to catch her flight leaving Singapore so we quickly took a picture together. But she kept apologising for the rush and kept waving bye to us even when she was IN the car until it drove off too far. She's such a sweet and humble person I'm so glad I met her. I guess you have a life long subscriber here Jenn<3
 
At St. Regis now!!
Had lunch with dad and now I'm in the room completing my assignment! Faith will be joining me soon heheh.
Lets get down to work
Bye!!

Bamby



Bircher Muesli is my favorite food in the universe and this one from Swiss Bake..Mmmm~




I FINALLY like tried Maki San and I LOVED IT
Asparagus // Tamago // Corn // Roasted mushrooms // Avocado // Softshell Crab // Tempura crunch // Sesame sauce
That's a lot in a sushi but so good I wish I could eat it everyday.








After the study sesh with Faith I decided to take a break by going shopping alone! Hahaha.. I think I like being alone too much. I'm a turtle that's right. The Topshop mid season sale is really awesome pawsome I think I got five tops so far! The fifth and hopefully the final one is the cream top above! And also, my first ever order from Asos arrived! The second order should be somewhere on the way hehehe.. That elephant necklace I just...  ≧❀‿❀≦ 
And loveeee that animal print crop except that I didn't notice the butterflies when I bought it:(
Really afraid of and dislike butterflies to the coreeee. The tears they made me cry, unforgivable :-'( 
And the past few days, moths have been flying into my house and flying AT me. I've had at least 5 mini heart attacks already would they please spare me. 

I think Bobby really looks like a Red Fox after his hair cut!!? And he looks like Bambi when he's lying down doesn't he?! So adorbs I cannot:>

Anyway!! Today was FPath (Fundamentals of Pathology) test and dammmmn it was hard. Just going to leave it as "I did my best." I feel like I haven't been doing much but yet I feel so busy? Definitely haven't had time to watch a single episode of drama nor complete my painting. Week by week's just flying by. The third week of school are you kidding me. Why isn't it the third year alr though? 

Okay it's time for bed because..morning run tomorrow! Damn that hokkien mee!!!
Goodnight!:)

Labourdate











Mom's every japan trip promises this much goodies


Adorable instant noodles!!!
HI!!
Had an impromptu plan with Reens to surprise Faith at her touch rug match on wednesday and it was SUCH a success hahaha.. We saw her walking so we hid behind a car and scared her out of her wits HAHA
And then we went to Ngee Ann to surprise this Nana's Daniel before we headed for dinner! Had muslim food at this place that I totally forgot the name of except that its near Ngee Ann that I know. We had Garlic Naan ( I LOVE stuff like Naan and Pita yummmm)/ Tissue Prata/ Egg Prata/ Coin prata/ and very yummy Mango Lassi fur meeee!
Today's Labour day and I spent it with the best ladies in my life! Had Nasi Padang at Minang and then Maison Ikkoku for their cakes and coffee. The Lava Cake I had to say was definitely one of the best or actually the best I've tasted even though I don't like chocolate cakes all that much. Mom and aunt did most of the honor while I enjoyed the Caramel Crunch slice and sipped Latte. The Lava cake was so so filled with chocolate that I felt like they were making one that was too exaggerating lol?! Exaggerating of chocolate. I can imagine all chocolate lovers dropping jaws.
Damn school I'm really so sick of the routine.
BYE
Oh by the way..I would be so happy if I could know that out of the views I get, someone's not a casual. Like actually someone who checks in for posts.
ok never mind bye!!
