Friday - 16 January 2015

Bonjour! 

It's finally friday! FINALLY. This week felt really long but short. I love it when time passes fast like  this! :D Another 5 more weeks of school + exams and I am done yesss.

My day started off really early as usual. Woke up at 5.30am and left the house at around 6.50am, went to school myself and reached at around 7.40am. Just nice! :D Before leaving the house, I grabbed a slice of my mum's homemade bread using the bread machine. It was so yummy and it was just really delicious. :) It was some wholegrain bread with raisins from the waitrosse bread mix.



Practical session til 10.30am and my friends and I went for brunch. I had iced coffee and a peanut butter waffle! The waffle was super yummy and only costs $1.10! I will definitely buy it again for sure! But I'll try chocolate with banana or sth like that for the filling the next time I buy it. :) Next monday maybe? :) Ah cant stop thinking about it. Haven't had a hot crispy waffle in ages! My cravings for anything that I felt like eating was satisfied. Makes sense? haha 


This picture does not do it justice. Super yummy! 

Then I had lecture til 12pm. Friends and I went to the library to finish up some work. At around 2pm I left school and went home. On the way home I stopped by some shopping hub to get peanut butter and some almonds and cashews because 2 packets for only $3.90 so why not? This old man was playing the harmonica and he was playing one of my favourite chinese song called lover's tears. I was so impressed but I didn't know if he was expecting money or anything so I didn't drop any money because I was scared that that if I did, he would be insulted if he wasn't one of those 'beggars'.  

Reached home, cleaned up and started on some slides for my project and I am almost done with it yipee! :D Then I had dinner with my family. I was ravenous because I haven't eaten anything since the waffles and coffee. It was really filling honestly. 

White rice, glass noddles, cabbage, tofu, meatball, chicken

I didnt eat any fruit at all today oh no! Shucks... After dinner, we all chilled and talked for a while. It's finally friday omg Ive been looking forward to this day since last Sunday ahha! Tomorrow night Im attending my cousin's wedding dinner and I haven't chosen a dress to wear yet yikes! I'll probably sleep at around 10.30pm tonight and wake up at 8am tomorrow morning. I'll talk to you guys again tmr! Au revoir! :)

I have been writing down notes etc for the past 2 and a half hours non stop! My hands hurt but I still have so much work to do! :( Today was an ok day? Do you guys ever do or say something and then later you think about it and regret like crazy and wish you didnt do what you did or say what you said? IT KILLS ME! Im always thinking about my past actions and I regret most of them... 

I'll probably sleep at 11pm tonight after I complete my work. Hope you guys had a great day! :D

Wednesday - 14 January 2015

Hey! 

I travelled so much today! I took 3 taxis altogether and I was out of the house from 6.30am-10.30pm OMG! I'm exhausted and I sprained my forearm cos of my heavy bag. ...great...

I woke up at 5.45am this morning and got ready and left the house. Managed to get a quick bite for breakfast before leaving the house. Just had equivalent to a slice of my mum's homemade bread which tasted weird but it was nice actually! Not too bad. 


Left the house at 6.30am and took a bus and mrt to telok blangah for some field trip... I was supposed to meet my friend at 8.45 but I reached at 7.20am. LOL. So I found a place to chill and relax while waiting for her. 

Chilled at this spot. It was breezy and relaxing! :D 


Then we went to keppel golf club and walked around etc. It was windy but super sunny and hot! 

 Then after that at 11am, we went to vivocity to continue doing our project. I bought Starbucks cos I was dying from thirst and it was super refreshing! I uploaded a picture of it on ig along with the peanut pancake! Had those for lunch. 

Then at 12.45pm, I took a taxi and rushed for piano because it starts at 1pm! Reached at 1.20pm. Piano went pretty well today! I felt like I improved :) My aural, however, was dreadful but now I dont feel as shy singing out loud. So thats good! :D 

Then at 2.30pm, I took a taxi to my sister's school to watch her dance for open house! I stayed in her school til around 5pm and then I took a bus and then taxi to my best friend's house to help her with her write ups for some administrative stuff. 

I had dinner at her house with her family and it was AWKWARD! I didnt know if i should take any dishes so i just took a bit of veggie and her dad was like "Dont be shy!". Then he piled so much dishes on my plate and I was like oh gosh. Im so uncomfortable right now! I hate eating with strangers cos I feel so awkward! Stayed at her house til 9.30pm helping her and played some piano for like 10 mins before my mum came. ahha. 

Brownie dessert. I had one slice. Took home the other slice along with two more slices her mum gave me for my sisters. 


Im home now! It 11pm! These few days ive been sleeping at 12am and I wake up at 5,30am. Im so tired but I have no choice! ;( 

Oh! BAD NEWS. I think in one of the previous posts, I said that on friday I end school at 11am and then I can go home after. BUT, now I have to stay back in school for 4 hours to complete a group project with my friends. :((( Next week I have 3 projects and presentations! The following week I have 3 reports to hand in and another individual presentation. Im super busy oh gosh the stress is really getting to me. :(

Im going to turn in soon because I have a full day at school tmr from 9am-4pm zzzz. Hope you guys had a great day! ;)

Tuesday - 13 January 2015

Hey! 

How are you guys? Well, I have so so so many homework and projects to do. Honestly Im seriously super intimidated! Let's see, from now til febuary, I have 4 projects/presentations, 2 reports and tests and practical tests! OMG. I really need to get my shit together. 

This is so true but its easier said than done. You cant just not care about some things although you wish you did. 

Now, Im just sitting down typing out this blog. Dance is at 8.15 so I have around 45 mins to spare before I have to change up and warm up. :) 

Today started off early. I was woken up by my sister's alarm clock at 5.30am because she has school at 8am, my oldest sister has work and has to be there by 7.30am and I have school at 9am. We all left the house at 6.30am and my mum dropped all my sisters off and then both of us went for breakfast! :D

We went to sunset at clementi for breakfast and I bought fan choy from this dim sum shop and it was homemade but their portion was TINY and it was $1.80. Not worth it at all. There was only 2 slices of charsiew meat and a small portion of rice underneath. I was expecting more but oh well. So i just had that. I was still hungry after though but my mum needed to rush off to send the car for servicing.

Pathetic portion! Everything is supposedly homemade so its more ex... 

I thought it wouldve looked like this! I like the khong guan one althought its super oily and quite salty. I used to buy it everyday from my former school and it has been ages since I had one. Disappointed though! 

Then my mum dropped me off at school and I got back my results for biostats! I got 81! I was in utter shock! I refused to believe it was my paper cos it's my first time getting an A for a paper in poly! I was like NONONO ARE YOU SERIOUS NO. PRAISE THE LORD!!! After that, there was another test for physiology and Im pretty sure I screwed that one up. Ill probably fail that one seriously. Erghh I studied so hard for it! As the saying goes, "you try your best but you dont succeed". LOL Coldplay feels over here. 

Anyway, after that horrible lecture session, my friends and I went for lunch. I had my usual vegetarian rice! I love it! :D So healthy and filling. Woohoo. 

Brown rice with pumpkin and black pepper mock meat! Super yummmy.

Oh yeah forgot to mention to you guys, my contact lenses was being a bitch this morning. 

Story time: The minute I put it on my eye, it BURNED! It was super painful, I started tearing so much and my eyes became bloodshot red in my right eye. Stupid me thought it was a good idea to try the other eye and it BURNED as well. Gosh, I dont function well in the mornings clearly. I opened a new pair of lenses and put it in the car and it was ok but my eyes were still red. Then in physio lecture, I decided to just wear my glasses cos it was so uncomfortable! Thank God I brought my glasses along! :D First time wearing glasses out in since I first got my contact lenses 6 years ago! I felt conscious at first but after a while I just didnt give a damn. Im still wearing my glasses now but I will have to wear it later for ballet and after that Ill take it out immediately!

Got back my chemistry test results as well and I thought I wouldve done better. Everything is so unexpected now. Sigh. Cant be too certain of anything anymore. 

After school, I went home and changed up, did some work for a while and then changed up, munched on some homemade bread which by the way, did not look or taste anything like bread but it was still nice. I should rest my eyes now while waiting for my friend. Talk to you guys tmr! :D Have a great evening!

Monday - 12 January 2015

Hey! 

Sorry I havent posted in two days! I was super busy! I had to get many projects done and reports to do, homework to complete and tests to study for. I have 4 projects, 3 reports to submit by the end of the month and tests everyweek! Plus my finals are coming up in 4 weeks time! OMG. 

Today was a relatively good day for me! :D I woke up at 5.50am, got ready and went for a nice run/jog/walk in the stadium. Ran for 6.5 rounds and walked for 3.5 rounds. Around 40 mins altogether. A short workout in the morning really changes the course of the day! :D So glad I went for that much needed run, I wouldve regretted it if had I chosen to sleep in instead haaha.


Showered and got ready for school. For breakfast I had 4 papaya wedges diced up. It was cold, sweet and so juicy! Perfect for a post-run breakfast! :D That kept me energetic and satisfied til lunch. 


Lunch was at around 2pm, I bought subway turkey sub! I love this sub to bits! However, I shouldnt consume them too often. It being processed meat and all. Once a week perhaps? 

Turkey breast ham on multigrain bread no cheese, all veggies and no sauce! 

Another one hour lecture before I could finally come home or to my grandparent's house. ahah. I left my phone in the lecture hall so I had to walk all the way back again to retrieve it. Sigh Im so blur today! 

Reached home, settled down, copied down some notes and at 6.30pm, I had dinner! My grandparents packed us dinner and honestly, I wouldnt normally order these few dishes but I guess it's ok. :) 

White rice with steamed egg with minced pork, stir fried cabbage :)

Chilled at the dining table for a while before heading back to the room to complete copying my notes. Now, I have to study for two tests tomorrow! AHH. 

I think I'll just revise and try to copy down somemore notes before I go to bed at 10.30pm. School is at 9am tmr! So I have to wake up at 7am. Hope you guys had a good productive day! :D Ballet tomorrow evening and Im excited! Ballet classes were cancelled for the last two weeks and Im excited for class tmr! :D We are learning harder things now yipee!! Bye!

Friday - 9 January 2015

Hey! 

Did many things today! :D Felt productive but not in school work haha.... 

Woke up, checked instagram and saw this post from patricia zhou. I was like OMG CAN I HAVE YOUR FEET AND LEGS. haha. #LIFEGOALS

Woke up at around 7.30am, followed my mum and dad to visit my grandma in the hospital because she fractured her spine when she fell down. :( I dont know about you but when i fall on my butt it hurts like that immediate moment. I dont know how to describe it but it hurts and its so shocking. My grandma is 70+. Thank god she fell on her butt and it didnt break anything else. She just has to rest for now and the bone will heal.

At around 11am, we went to the coffee shop for lunch. I didnt eat any breakfast so I was pretty hungry. I ordered yi mee. I felt like eating dried mince pork noodles but I dont know why I ordered this. Do you guys ever get that? I felt like eating this but end up ordering something else? So weird.


My phone runs out of battery really fast.
We went to check our house for a while, I played the piano while my mum and dad discussed with the workers problems and stuff. There isnt any progress on the house at all! Ergh makes me angry just thinking about it.. 

At around 1.30 we left the house and my parents sent me back to my grandparents house first while they went to get some lights, so I could get ready for piano. :) Reached home at around 2, lazed around til 3pm, went to get a mini pineapple mango cream bun for a snack cos I felt peckish. Got ready and left the house at around 4.30pm. 

Reached my teacher's piano school at 5pm and stayed there to use the studio to practice piano til around 6.30pm and then I left to go back to the hospital to meet with my dad and visit my grandma again. Haha :) 

Private practice session woohoo!

Took the train and walked mostly all the way there. Reached at around 7.30pm. Dad and grandpa was there for hours from lunch time. I stayed for half an hour and then we left to have dinner. I wanted dumpling noodles but they had no more! So i just ordered this Japanese salmon and chicken teriyaki bento set. I had no idea they would deep fry the chicken. I tried scraping off all the chicken skin and sadly the chicken was 80% fat, 20% meat so it looked like i left all the chicken behind when actually, it was all the yucky gross fatty skin. 


Now Im home, Im on my period now so i feel so bloated and gross all the time!! ergh! Tmr I have to be in school from10am-2pm to help out with the open house.. I didnt even volunteer but the teachers volunteered us. Half my saturday is gone.  Boo :,( 

I think Ill sleep at around 11pm tonight. I hope you guys had a great day! :D
