Time for a brief update. the term break has started and we're already in the holidayes~! i've never been so happy on any other holiday before! this uni rubbish thing. well, it's not that bad but i guess everything just leaves you tired. despite the holidays there's still project meetings to attend but what i really want is to have fun with my pals!i was so so happy on sunday night! and on monday morning, i woke up and went dancing into my sisters room with a funny kind of jig.
So soon two days have already passed and it's mid week wednesday. and we all know once wednesday zooms by, very soon it'd be friday and this precious week would be over. gone.
On monday, i went to orchard with swee! and we ate fish and chips for lunch. and i keep eating fish and chips rather often these days. i ate fish and chips the previous monday at nie canteen! and i eat it as if it's not fattening like that. i seem to forget that it's fried and fries are still those evil golden things which sit in all the wrong places of my already very fatted body. neh neh neh pok! then we went mooncake tasting tour at the exhibition area in taka. this years showcase is snowskin mooncake. the poor traditional ones looked rather abandoned to me. and the most memorable? the whiskey one from bakerzinn. that's the one we liked most. swee went on to try her yam mooncake. and i shared with her the most embarassing thing that ever happened to me thus far. sigh sigh. at 4, i went off to bugis to meet my cc dg. well, gotta use 'codes' here cos im afraid of being 'found out'. hehe fcm doesnt really approve of such christian organisations but i have my own personal reasons for joining so. just hope they don't kick me out if they ever find out. cos i also like fcm. and i like stepping on two boats! haha. And jane, our dg leader, cheated us to meet cos she had more cc material to share with us. basically the evangelism booklet and guide, cos we're gonna do campus evangelism when school re-opens next week! well, this intimidates me quite abit. still not used to it. unlike daenna and shermaine who have more experience with street evangelism. but im still excited about this. we have to take this week to add this matter to our prayer lists! im still thankful for that only time i got to try tracting during fcm camp at jurong east interchange with herbert as the guiding man. each time i stand at the mrt platform and wait for the mrt up to tampines, i will see the bus interchange and remember that time. We had a good time together yesterday at coffeebean! jane was so sweet as to treat us to drinks and three cakes! she often shares with us how she felt convicted to lead a dg group last year and prayed about it. and can tell she's happy with the 'disciples' she's got. the three of us, although we often suan her for being old! :P and we always have nice times of sharing together-such blessedness. and its not coincidental that God just plonked this group of us together!
at 730 i went to funan it mall to meet my sis for our haircut appointment. im happy i managed to get my hair cut so soon on the first day of holidayes! but im not very happy with the cut. i wanted just a trim and wanted the style to be loose, where the hair just lands on the shoulders. but the hairdresser trim till it became sorta a crop style. sigh. and i got myself a fringe. still trying to get used to it. im just trying to want to look younger la. hai. but still gotta do sth to it. i feel nothing but toot. at least its a side parting fringe and not the straight across one. that would've been silly! sis got a trim but ended up with some atomic cloud shaped hairstyle. well, its actually funky. but the silly hairdresser went to cut the short fashionable bob behind. she'll hae to learn to get used to it!i realised if you go to the hairschool without specific intructions, you'd just end up with syllabus haircut.
felt super sleepy and slept after watching grey's anatomy. didnt do any research for cs 104. which i had project meeting with on tuesday. woke up early the next morning and did some measly miserable research. went to kembangan after tt and spent the whole afternoon there. project meeting is depressing and draining and slow moving. think too much for the little amount of work you get done! :(
then i rushed for the 6 clock class at bugis. amore unlimited. mother's treat. well, ks was super draining. finally some standard i see. and dunno what's wrong with me today, couldn't perform to a proper standard! couldnt do the weights properly and kept giving up and peng-sanning halfway during routines. sigh. and it's not like i did anything taxing in the day. im blaming it on project work if anything. but of course. the problem is me la! book for 2 classes today. and i thought the class after that was stretch fit so can relax. but no i saw all these people coming in and started doing more aerobics steps and i spent the next 15 min wodnering what class this was. and as i was doing the things the instructor was doing, i suddenly remembered it was hi/lo class. good thing. cos i couldn't jump around much anymore. that class was sucha disgrace. i dunno what went terribly wrong with me! i was slacking it off. didnt do the arm movements properly, didn't get the series steps into my head. and kept doing wrong steps the whole time! i din even bother to remember the sequence! and all tt time i was just waiting for time to pass and the class to end. so so horrible right. while slopping around with the routine work, which should've been enjoyable, cos it was set to a cute song like ' we love short shorts' or some lyrics like that.and the music was fast and catchy. steps were nice to do also. but believe me! iw as just rejecting everything and not taking anything in my head. and at that time i was thinking if she'd throw me out cos i really wasn't paying attention. i thought of what a disgrace my then conduct would be sucha big disgrace to ballet. so much for brains to do freework. it was just crazy that i could not absorb anything! yet is was so basic. argh. and then i thought of how ms ong would scream at me already if it were her class or be so shocked if she even saw me doing nothing in a workout class. sighsigh. and then i thought of how my ballet firends would be working their ass off in tt class if they were there with me.
the only part where i did things properly was the small body conditioning part-with sit ups etc.
then i went to buy the cheesecake stick from beard papa's and finally tried uzumaki japanese ice cream green tea flavour! it has a certain creamy texture and a tea-y smell. a little like teh peng. then after that iw as chomping it down and didn't /couldnt taste much of it. went to four leaves to get some pastries too.
reached home at 930 and watched the other half of the chinese show 'family matters'. then switched to channel 5 at 10 to watch 'stories of love'. these very singapore themed shows. then you can pay attention to the filming angles and the lighting and the dark areas vs te brighter areas in a particular scenes. one thing about these shows i never fail to notice? the nice nice house settings. the 'having your own apartment' scenario. high powered working women living in luxurious apartment. i always imagine that to be what i'd be when i become working and older. but i dunno how or what the transition's gonna be like if that ever becomes a reality! but then again, its a tv show!! show. not real. not meant to be real!
finally finished talking about everything!
tomorrow wednesday. 102 project meeting at bugis again. then night is reserved for the people of my happier days! and im supposed to somehow clean up my room between tomorrow and thursday, cos kelly (cs816) is coming over on thursday for another project!! owwww!! nehnehnehhhhh pokers.
oh! this week, also looking around for a lap top case. coloured keyboard protector and maybe optical mouse. ps: not good to step out of hairsalon at 9 sth on monday after haircut to realise all the shops you wanted to check out in tt building were already closed! silly feeling.
