Materialistic Me

Because i haven’t updated in 3 weeks, and because i still don’t have much to share, i shall share what i have bought and received recently, so bear with me

From Forever21. Gorgeous colour

From Bonitochico. Pretty !

From Sensibar. Which looked waaaaay better in pic than in real life :S

And of course, TONS of presents for the october and november babies lols.

Been a crazy CRAZY week settling projects and what nots, but at least we got pass some of them. Have got a huge essay coming up so i guess that spells more work to be done…

On another note, it’re really nice to have a close friend stay just beside you. So you can supper at night and talk crap and share troubles/feelings and watch funny videos and laugh ur heads off in the wee hours of the night. Keeps you sane in times like this

And for saying you’ll bring me to nice places you’ve been, that’s really sweet. Gosh i hope this didn’t sound too les hahaha. Anyway if you’re reading this, thanks girl, love ya *hugs* !

Wow. Is it that bad?

Everyone feels despondent at times and you are no exception. You are feeling so depressed because it seems that everything that could go wrong has gone wrong and you don’t quite know which way to turn. So like the proverbial ostrich you are trying to bury your head in the sand. But that won’t work – you have to face reality.

You are very self-sufficient and methodical. You presume to know where you are going but need to find a person who will recognise the way you are, not be too demanding and who is, as they say in Italy, ‘Simpatico’.

The situation at this time is one of considerable distress. You feel trapped and you are looking for some way out. You can find solace in the arms of someone who cares so long as there is no long-term emotional involvement.

For some time now your hopes and expectations have been denied and because of this you are becoming withdrawn and introverted. Continual disappointment has manifested itself in you becoming both suspicious and restrained you have become withdrawn from others and have receded more and more into yourself. You seem to have lost your innate enthusiasm and imaginative nature, for fear that you may be carried away by it only to find that you are wasting your time. You are loath to trust people, as in the past your trust has been misplaced. You seem to be keeping yourself cautiously aloof from others. At this moment in time your attitude is to trust nobody – until they can prove themselves to you.

 At this time you don’t particularly like yourself. Everything that you have tried to do seems to have gone wrong. This makes you feel that there is no point in trying to start again. Apart from being stressed and tense, you are angry with yourself and have unadmitted self-contempt. Your refusal to admit that you and you alone is the basic cause of your problems leads to you adopting a headstrong and defiant attitude. If you take stock of yourself, smile a little and let go, everything will turn out OK. Have you not heard of the cliche ’smile and the world smiles with you – cry and you cry alone!’?

Breathe, breathe.

Pics with cousin at Shangri-La

I like my dress. but i don’t like my fringe. bah.

Finally, the mad essay deadlines are over. for the time being. And it’s time for projects…I did grab 2 episodes of GG break yest though, thanks to elearning week. and of course, more online shopping. But for now, it’s back to work

Feeling kindda nervous about the meeting on fri…wonder how the team’s gonna be like. don’t know what to expect, but i guess it’s always best to go in without any expectations

four.things.

1. I did get lucky. Will be heading to Sichuan from 13 Dec-27 Dec for OCIP. I hope it snows during christmas =)

2. I made potato salad to celebrate extension of essay deadlines. It was yummy and they’re all gone now haha.

3. Went to Shangri-La’s The Line for lunch buffet. The presentation of food were very nice, but the taste didn’t wow me. I was particularly impressed by their salad bar though. It was the only thing i had second servings of. And probably how pretty their desserts looked (but didn’t match up in area of taste) Photos will be up after i get them from cuzzie.

4. Does stress proportionately equals to shopping for clothes? I’ve a feeling it does =S *Glances at my wardrobe*

And they say third time’s a charm…

So…will it be third time lucky this time round?

I’m going to get down to making some yummy potato salad as soon as my status on msn switches to ‘available’.

Ok i stole this picture, but i’m sure mine’s gonna turn out as delicious looking, or even more, than this

My little piece of heaven

So do my curls pass ? Can i consider this option in the future? Lols

Anyway it’s recess week. and instead of doing what i’m supposed to do, i created bakescapade.wordpress.com Feel free to explore if you’re feeling hungry

Attending my cousin’s wedding lunch on sunday made me realised i ain’t that young anymore. darn.

I just realised today that…

mugging in the library is like running on a treadmill. you push urself to the limit cos you relish the pain (or refuse to concede defeat).

mugging at home is like running on the tracks. You feel free to stop anytime for a break. and productivity goes down from then on.

and of course, slacking is like shopping. you never get enough of it.

Red sofas at Old School

Caught ‘Cages’ at Sinema. First time there and i must say i loooooove the layout of the place ! It was rows after rows of red comfy sofa. We can totally lie down on a sofa each. The film was good.

Us at Old School on a friday night.

The steep flight of stairs. oh but i like this pic. Headed to Wala after the movie to join some cuhk ppl…funny how i always hear the same band play everytime i’m there.

Heh there’s been a sudden reduction in photo size cos i don’t wanna scare u guys with a BIG pic of me suddenly. This was sometime back in week 2, when mich and i still had the luxury of enjoying TTTT.

Peranakan buffet ! The kuehs looks good but they taste…normal haha.

And then it was shopping ! Didn’t get anything much, think i spent more money online recently heh.

Sigh, with the onslaught of test and assignment deadlines i won’t think i’d the mood or time to blog more. So this space might be neglected unless hmm something…exciting happens.

Wear sunscreen

Learn to appreciate more, and say yes more.(in the right scenario)

Know that you are happy just the way you are now. You wouldn’t know how good you had it until it’s gone.

Stop complaining and start appreciating.

And you guys should totally watch this.

 

 

The race is long and, in the end, it’s only with yourself.

Late night pizza & Strawberry margarita

Here’s some random pics, becos it’s my free day and i’m doing things to procastinate starting on my readings.

Our ‘manly’ night out at Harry’s 2 weeks back.

Trust me, the pizza is HUUUUUUUUUGE. and yummy.

No, not at the pizza. At the GOAL on the screen.

I would call this pic…pensive.

Somebody spilled Strawberry margarita on my nails yesterday.
