Year in Review: 2013

Life in PJC: Globes, Project Work, S09 :) 

Being a part of the PJ AC family - Work shadowing trip to Suzhou made me learn so much and allowed me to meet so many new people:

The Girl Guides family I miss so so much, attending guides weekly, participating in guides-related activities, and being a part of the one big Family

The people I spent most of my secondary school life with, now we hardly get together :( 

Completed 5 runs in a year with the people I love and managed to break my own personal record during the GEWR hehe 

December trip to Hanoi with the family! Experienced a very different side of life: Trekked along the mountains to visit villages, spending our nights on an overnight train and junk boat, braving the cold weather and experiencing different cultures. It was indeed a memorable and great experience :) 

My second family: The Assholes! Hardly have a chance to meet them, but I'm glad we're still as close despite the distance :) Never normal bunch of people hehehe 

Glad we spent the last day of the year (countdown 2013) together :)))

And not forgetting, my dearest girls (i treat them like my sisters) I'm so glad things are back to the way they were and I hope that we will be stronger than ever!! Love you 2 xoxo

And last but not the least, the best thing that ever happened to me in 2013 :) 

And may we survive 2014 together! 

"Sometimes you can't explain what you see in a person. It's just the way they take you to a place where no one else can." 

Last day of the year: Adventure cove and countdown with all the people I love, and all the people they love :)

Here's to a new year:
Goodbye all the opportunities I've missed, chances I was too afraid to take.
Goodbye all the disappointing moments, expectations, failure and time I've wasted.
Goodbye all the things and people I've lost along the way.

Hello to greater opportunities, strength, success and memories in 2014!
Hello to a happier me (cliche but hehe)
oh ya and.. back to reality: hello to A levels... :/

4 more days to Promos. We can do this!

Glad that you came

It's a Saturday and I suddenly felt like posting something even though i dont know if anyone still reads this little space of mine.
So right now i'm really pretty happy hehehe haven't felt this way for a long time already and i wish things would stay this way (or get better)

if you're following me on Instagram, yesterday I was surprised with eggtart delivery hehehe
really appreciate his effort cus it's his first & toughest try. his identity shall be kept lolollll
this is probably the most exciting part of my week sooooo hahahah LOL

during the really bad haze, met up with my girls and all the people we love :)
So glad that we're all happy right now like... We're so happy together hehehe
And FY made some heart-shaped cupcake for us. Love you babyyyy <3 p="">

And I was going through my photo album (looking for photos to upload, duh), then i found this picture we took. during 1st of june. and now i'm here on the 29th of june looking back at this day, it felt just like yesterday...
Now I look at where we are in our life now and i'm so happy for them :)
so happy that they're happy & that we're still so close despite the distance.

omg half a year!

So hi. It's June already and I'm freaking out cus HALF A YEAR ALRDY AND I HAVENT ACCOMPLISHED SMTHING I'M PROUD OF yet.

Suddenly felt nostalgic and went to look through my photo albums in my lappy
I miss HK, I miss BKK, I miss taking crazy photos with bro (now that he's in Laos), I miss missing home, I miss studying for Os (studying for MYE now is even 1000x harder lol), I miss all the dimsummmm egglets food eggtart food, I miss being in a foreign place.
I miss 2012 and everything.. I miss guides and my sisters. I miss studying with my bestie... I miss everything that I can't have anymore..

BUT on a side note,
life's actually pretty good for me now. I am happy :) tired, but still happy.

C l o s u r e

4 months have passed but it felt like 4 years. this year's been such a drag.
So many things to adapt to, especially school. So many things to put behind, so many changes.
Really can't wait for this year to end. I need to find a motivation in life hahaha.

And so..... I was happy for a while- thought some things were gonna work out this time, finally realised that i've been living in self denial, which was like a 'break free' for me. Realised that i've been putting in too much time and effort for someone who doesn't appreciate. Realised that some things never change no matter how long it has been, which i was quite glad about. Well, during this period of time I learned to let go, learned to accept the old & new, and most importantly, i learned that people come into your life for a reason.

(inserting random pictures so that this whole post won't seem like some emo-ish post lol)
The night we met up for dinner :)

But right now, I cant say that i'm sad, but i guess i'm in a state of being sad and disappointed. The greater the expectations, the greater the disappointment, it's true.
Can't help but get emotionally attached to people & things. when it's time for them to go, it hits you.
Though i expected this outcome, i didn't want it to come this quickly. I guess we came back to finish whatever we left off... years ago. And a lot of things didn't change, even though we've changed over the past few years.. never felt this happy before, but it'll all end someday.
I always tell myself if it's meant to be, it will be. but am i really willing to just let things happen and not fight for the things that i really want? no, but this time i guess i might just end up doing this alone.

I miss my girls already. How I wish we can be together every single day. :(

---

So many things have happened, and i've been thinking a lot. Though I never understood why and how they happened, but i guess i should just focus on the more important things in my life right now, which are the things that I have - family, my girls, friends, and As. 

Half of sexy babes; the people who keeps me going in this burdensome school world.

The end of my emo-self-reflecting post. Can't wait for good things to happen.. 

Its been a month or so since i've started school in a whole new environment.
Well.. its definitely not easy trying to adapt to all these new changes and everything, but life in PJC has been awesome. although school has taken up most of my time HAHAHA


Can't wait to camp with my girls this coming Friday. I miss camping & I definitely miss them too :'(

There are so many things that I miss, but most of the time, what's gone is gone.
Can't wait for my new school life to begin. I need to start all over.

i've been staring at this blank space for about 5 mins and i have no idea how to start actually. don't even know the purpose of this post.. shld i do dedications? reflections? resolutions?

ahh decisions, decisions! 

but life's all about decisions, isn't it? 

2012, full of ups and downs, people came and people left. some disappoint you, some surprise you. 

like every year, I'd say i would have done a better job if i could do it all again. 

finally 2012 is coming to an end. This year I've done so many things. well, graduating from ZSS leaves me with lots of mixed emotions. i've definitely met an awesome group of friends, sisters, brothers, teachers, and most importantly gained many experiences and lessons in life. 

meh ok this is getting boring lol. 

anyway i've decided to skip the dedications stuff. you should know how i feel towards you.. HAHAHA 

the next few pictures pretty much sums up my entire 2012! 

our awesome RIGHT SIDE CLIQUE ohyeah!

gonna meet my '10 years of friendship and counting' friends next week, finally!!!! :D

To HK and BKK in 10 days!

December is almost coming to an end, and i can say it has definitely been a really fulfilling month spent with my family! 6 days to Hongkong and 4 days to bangkok :)

Avenue of stars at HK!

In the cable car to Lantau Island, which we had to queue for hours to get the tickets. It was worth it, since it was my first time there (based on my memory lol)

the cable car ride was fun, since i didnt have any fear for heights and i loved cable cars a lot. but the queue is such a killjoy. :(

ocean park! we decided to go since we didn't last year, and bro's joining us this round, so we can try out the rides tgt! its just a theme park with lots of stuff on the ocean lol. The rides were pretty meh, at least not what i expected. but thankfully there wasnt much queue, and we managed to spend a whole day there!!! which makes the entrance fee kinda worth it hehehe :)

Macau's Portuguese eggtarts! one of the reasons why we didn't miss Macau this trip. It's super good to me since i have a love for egg tarts!

While having dinner at Da Jia Le back in HK!

The next day we went to queue for the best dimsum in HK - Tim Ho Wan! the queue was super long, lucky we went early (we still had to wait about 1 hour), those who came later had to wait for like 2-3 hours. And its amazing how people were still willing to wait. GOOD FOOD IS WORTH THE WAIT!!! :D

but its really up to standard and superrr gooood. no wonder they say HK's dimsum are the best!

Cons are that the place is rather small, only a few tables available and everyone had to squeeze. but luckily food is served fast and the prices are quite affordable!!!! 

 My fav egglets!!!! Must eat this everyday hehehe. 

That's all for my trip to HK LOL its short not becus we didnt do much or take a lot of pictures, im just lazy to upload all hehehe :P

BANGKOK!

First night's dinner at A no ther hound cafe, recommended by bro's Thai friend. it's a mix of western & thai cuisine, and the price is rather affordable in such a restaurant environment!!!

2nd night's dinner at some random roadside 'tze char' stall. i really like the thai salad too. mix of sour & spicy woohooo!

roses :)

3rd day's lunch at some ramen restaurant cus mum loves the ramen there. and its super cheap (as compared to sg) LOL

went to A&W for tea break with mum before we went to shop! 

that night's dinner at Chinatown! wahlao the 'tze char' stall's food really damn good (and cheap). looking thru these photos makes me wanna go back there to eat again!!! :D

My fav from BKK! Mango sticky rice :)

 tried the crepes too. like i always say, cheap and good! HAHAHA

shopping in BKK was likeeee HEAVEN. everything is so much cheaper.
what sucks was the weather and the crowd and the traffic jams. and also the scam-side of the Taxis lol.
And there aren't much to blog about cus we spent most of our time shopping hehehe :)

that's all for my trip. wish to end this year well! 7 more days to a new year. 2013, im coming!!!!
