Of ALL times

What a great time to fall sick. Of all times, 4 days before my final papers. GREAT. And to add on to that point, i HARDLY EVER fall sick. If mugging is horrible, mugging while you’re sick is HELL. But like i have a choice.

But anyway i have learnt a lot from the trip to the doc. (And the med are working like miracle) Anyway while i was waiting for my turn in the clinic i was just thinking how miserable it must be to be working there. I mean, no entertainment and anything, just a lot of sick ppl. It just looks like a dull place. I don’t know, but i haven’t been in a clinic where people (working there) look cheerful before.

Anyhow, the doctor was really friendly and nice, and in the midst of the consultation i was actually reminded of my health comms module ! The chapter on doctor-patient relationship/communication or something. This doc is really quite different from others i have seen cos he explained a lot of things to me (even brought out diagram), which was pretty useful and that i never knew.

I think i took the looooooongest time in his office, like 20 mins. The clinic was kindda empty when i went in, but filled when i came out.

Then the doc said my blood pressure is a little high =( darn. time to cut down on salty stuff.

Dreaming of summer

Have secured my internship for summer =D will be at MICA doing corp comms. Heh working at clark quay…very convenient to go chill after work LOLS.

First paper tml, hope it goes well !

Epitome of Randomness

1. The DVD portfolio ate up so much of my freaking study week time that i think i’m seriously compromising on my other modules. Arrghhh. But must thanks dear wen for helping me out in the dvd production, making a third and final trip to her house to collect the dvds tml !

2. How can i make my eyes bigger, thighs smaller and complexion flawless ? I think all these requires effort and MONEY.

3. I haven’t baked for so long. even my friends tell me so =(

4. Awaiting my F21 loots from li. More new clothes !!!

5. Outdated pictures! Of John little cosmetic shopping with lei and her friend sueann, a crystal jade lunch(when i was SUPER late and no cab wanna take me cos i was holding a dripping umbrella) and meet up with Ash who came to visit =)

It’s a girly affair

Who has the smallest face ? hehe.

Ok this must have been taken sometime last year. But i was having a good hair and skin day so why not ? Sigh i would love to have slight curls in my hair if they do grow longer. but then again i dunnoe how long it would take.

Spot the similarity. Ok anyway i swear i didn’t wear the same top to the same place (is it the same table?) on purpose. It just happened. But i look more radiant in the earlier photo, in the second one i just look cui. See what stress and lack of sleep does to you. Bad hair, bad skin. boo.

I never knew s’pore has such a beautiful nightview. Guess that goes to show how sucky my camera is.

Cafe iguana

Macho Margaritas. My first thought when i saw this giants was FWAH…

Anyway, Ash was still the same hilarious and chatty guy who never stops talking. (I’ll never forget how my eyes were aldry half-closed on the ferry back to HK but he just keeps going on and on lols. That’s ash for you.) But it was good to have him back and catch up a little.

Ok, reality check. Long night ahead.

being true

I’ve been coming across brilliant articles on msn. and this abstract just makes so much sense. It’s on 7 friends every woman needs.

She answered all my big questions. “What does it feel like, looking back on your life?” I asked Florence one day. She peered into her diary. “I love that girl, Lily,” she said. “I love her when she was young and optimistic. It’s possible, if I had listened to her….” Her voice trailed off. Florence had told me she’d wanted to be an artist. Now she asked, “If I’d been true to myself, would I have ended up with this ordinary life?”

It was as if she was speaking about me. Back when I’d found the diary, I was lost. I had no idea what I wanted to do with my life. And I was so self-conscious. I couldn’t pass a mirror without looking, wondering if I’d ever find someone to love and understand me. Florence gave me perspective, something a friend my own age couldn’t. “Self-consciousness has been the biggest curse of my life,” she admitted. “It’s like carrying a heavy shell, all the time. Are you that way? Lily, my advice is get rid of it as fast as you can.”

– Lily Koppel, author of the memoir The Red Leather Diary

And now, back to my crazy week. Often wonder how i make it through this period every sem, but i do. So it’s possible.

Shiok

Hualing cheap buys back from chinatown is shiokness. Wld have bought more but tioletries ARE heavy when you have to carry them ard for the whole day heh. Ta dah !

Ok only there was a stupid auntie who kept on telling me how bad my skin is and how much i need her product which i have never even heard of. oh just fuck off. I have enough people pissing me off these days aldry.

Anyway, back to my wonderful day =) Having yummy japanese food is shiokness. Lunch with miss sexy legs hehe.

And she got me this cute laptop cover =)

It was all in all a nice day out. More next time !

I think i’m behaving like exams are already over lols.

Funny, really.

I half wanted to laugh today when i saw his comment on my evaluation form. Come on lar, i would have no problem being bossed around by you if you have the ability to do so. and i would kindly take to any task given if they make any sense.

But you have no idea what is going on most of the time, my dear boy, and can’t write to save your life. not even a simple narration. And contribution to the report? Literally zilch. Oh yeah you contributed useful comments like this is so chim, i don’t understand haha. Video? yeah sparse comment here and there.

It’s funny how one of the things that i did which frustrated you was ‘felt that the others were bossy’. When in my evaluation to the team, you were the only one who got that comment from me. Guess it didn’t help that you read my evaluation for you before you pen mine, and perhaps not knowing what to write, you just took some parts to rephrase. opps. haha i hope i’m not right.

Honestly, I tried my best to sound politically correct but there were certain things i had to put across. Well if they sound accusing, then i guess it’s my bad.

Learn to talk less, and do more dude. Yeah with all that being said we’re all grateful to you for the contacts, cldn’t have done without you…it was such a great contribution.

Really, you needn’t do more cos that was more than enough =)

Waaaarfferrrrrrs

Was wandering around west coast plaza with huimin last thursday becos we were both feeling sian. First time there since it’s open, looks a lot better than the old Ginza but a lot of stores were not open yet. We chanced upon waffles cottage and i would say it’s the nicest place in WCP…Lols.

The waffles are good but waffles with tuna is not the…most ideal combi haha.

Love the colourful post-its filled walls, love the comfty red comfa, love my top ! Lols. Good place for a get-away-from-school break

Anyway was just wondering today about…what i am good at. Not that good at writing, not that good at design, not that good at speaking, then what the hell am i good at?

Sigh, i think this is what you call a jack of all trades but master of none. How to find a job like that.

Oh, stop overreacting.

Feels like i’ve abandoned my blog for the longest time. Anyway, here’s a big heartfelt thanks to everybody for their birthday wishes =)

If only i can be 20 again. When really, i’m 22 this year. So which was your most memorable birthday celebration?

I can’t believe i was late for the second time for the EL proj meeting at cityhall on a saturday morning. So hard to wake up early when you’ve been up all night editing, heh. But 7 hours of shopping after that felt damm good We are such hardcore shoppers lols.

Oh and we had plenty of yummy food too. Pepper lunch (express). Ritz Strawberry strudel. Ah Chew’s 龟苓膏 + Mango sago. BV’s 算盘子. Cute looking ‘potato chips’ on a stick. Tori-q chicken balls. Ya kun’s teh-o/teh. It was literally like 食之路口. Makes a mental note to stop going out with lei too often haha. But boy was it a satisfying shopping + eating spree.

Tried pepper lunch (express) for the first time, it was not bad, very hot and peppery (as suggested by its name) but i’m not sure if my hair smelt quite the same for the rest of the day LOLS.

Anyway been editing all night yesterday too, but i’m finally done with Superhero. Wonder what’s gonna happen to our group project though. Not looking too good. Done with 3 projects/presentation for now. Left with NM3208 and EL1101E. It’s week 13 starting tml, where has all the time gone to ??!

Ok it’s time to clear the mess of wires and papers on my desk before i start coming up with my revision plan.

Before i go off, here’s a postsecret to share. Caught my eye among all the others. Well, it is true to a certain extent, ain’t it ;) ?

Conforming to societal norms

This week is totally TOTALLY dedicated to meeting deadlines and more deadlines. I have more reasons than ever to stay up till wee hours of the morning. But it’s the weekend now and time for me to take a breather.

Anyway was chilling out at coffeebean last night with dear lei and just chatting. I introed her to the colorgenics test and man, it NEVER fails to amaze me with the accuracy of the assessment after clicking on a few colour cubes. Go do it !

And week 12 is looming around the corner. Guess what it means ? (Hint: It starts with an E, ends with an M, causes ALOT of unnecessary emotional stress/turmoil and along with it, severe lack of sleep)

My stash of masks is so going to WASTE.
