My New Year.


I have not had a comfortable sleep for the longest time. And my mind is spinning every second, many many brain cells being used up as well. For hours, days, weeks.

I'm on a emotional and thinking mode right now. Past month plus was indeed very busy. One thing bout TP, they just like to rush projects, assignments, presentations, tests, all at one go. And i myself experienced a first time during that time, for not having enough time to do work, and rushed them till i couldn't find anytime to take a short nap at all. All i could was to rest on the table for say.. 10 mins, and i've to freshen up myself after that and continue. A few times in fact. Thought through and am wondering if the reason is because i didn't try to plan my time well, or i slacked too much etc. But no, it was just after the mere two weeks break after mid-sem and brah... everything just came, all at one time. Remembered there was one point, i was on the verge of lettin everything go, stop everything, don't think bout anything and just take a break. But i know i can't.

As what i've said, the mind keeps spinning, brain cells are used up every second. For the past month and all, i haven had a really comfortable sleep. Just couldn't. Was home for the whole day today, took a short nap in the afternoon. Planning to take an hour nap, but kept waking up for bout 5-6 times, with many thoughts in the head. And when i finally woke up after one hour, it's as though i slept for a few hours, with a few wakes in between.

Chinese new year has been really quiet this year, i didnt even manage to catch a glimpse of my cousins during the first day of cny. Went to both granny's place only, and stayed there for bout half to one hour, and then headed back home. As for today, i didnt want to go out, being bothered by my own thoughts, and as well as exams, so stayed at home for the whole day. But i had a surprise visitor yesterday, San was sweet, she came visiting me at night for a while and we had dinner together at home too. She had to leave early as she lives in the other side of Sg, Jurong. And bout 11, eddie came to visit me too. Which i appreciate it too. :) He knew i was somehow not feeling very good recently, and i've to thank him for actually takin some time outta his busy schedule to listen.

Come to think of it, it's in fact, very quiet this year. Didn't have the festive occasion feeling as well.

Sometimes, i just do not know how should i go about doing things. Afraid? worry? Right, i dont know what i'm talking already. Sometimes, sometimes, it just got me really tired thinking, one thing bout me that i hate myself for that.

Alright, back to my stuffs. Happy new year once again.

Birthdays.

Finally, the HRM groupies had a meet up on last Friday. It was to celebrate Sharon's Belated and Fendy's Advanced.



As usual like last time, we met up at Serangoon Gardens for a dinner cum chill-out session. We would usually be at chomps to have our meal first, followed by liquid kitchen/ice cube/coffee bean for chillin out. But this time round, heard from lene tt CLEO featured Ice3 fish&chips, so i mentioned it to the hrm groupies and we actually went there to have dinner instead.




So, as you can see from the pictures, i reckon they are doin really great for their deserts, but as for their fish&chips, i didnt order cuz i was craving more for satays instead but the rest ordered. Sad to say, it was kinda disappointing and the rest had a bit of trouble finishing it. The price wasn't really cheap as well. (you should see our bill) Well, I felt bad for makin them waste their money when the meal wasn't filling at all too. we still went to chomp chomp for some light bites after that.

Oh yes, please don't miss out their apple crumble if you do visit there. ;)


Lesson today was light hearted and short. Ms Ho treated the whole class to some light bites due to the last lesson we will be having with her. We had a lil fun too. ;)











And manda brought her really good handbake brownies for us. Cool. ;)

Right, shall end here.
Cheers~

New Shoes.



Bought this pair of shoes out of the blue today. And i think dad likes it too, he couldn't agree more when i said i wanted to get this pair of shoes. ;)

Cousin Eunice is indeed a genius. Her O levels results are remarkably excellent. Great job, my dear. ;)

Come to think of it, the assignments, tests, quizzes, presentations etc for this whole semester have totally ended. I'm left with two papers, that's all. But i just got to know bout the date of my piano exam, it falls on the 6th of March, pretty soon huh.

Good news. No school on this comin Monday and Tues, and on vday, school will pushed up till 3pm instead of 6pm. And which i actually planned to have drivin lesson in the mornin, and am prepared to attend a full day of school since the girls are all gonna have their dates. oh wells, needa rush a cab to school after drivin in this case.

And this was good.







This was definitely extremely good. ;)

You are able to stay on track despite distractions. You take your time when making decisions and will deliberate on all the possible consequences and alternatives.

Hmmm.

Try it! :)

Steamboat



So here am i, taking a break from the wrk.

The family had steamboat for dinner today. It was good and it has been a while since we had one though. A feast indeed. Mom prepared a few usual ingredients and meat, and we had crab and prawns too. The family agreed that the soup was surprisingly tasty today as compared to the previous few steamboats.

I talked pretty much during dinner time, to mom mainly, but as well as sharing with the whole family. Dad usually doesn't comment much when i'm talkin bout my stuffs, be it in the car or at home, cuz he wasn't really listenin or rather, occupied by the Teevee etc. But well, dad actually gave some comments and said some really funny ones to what i was sharing which no doubt, made me laughed and smiled. He was listenin. :)

At the end of the dinner, my sister said, " wah mommy, first time i see that the steamboat has ended and jiejie still sitting here."

Well.............
i'm usually the first to finish my dinner and i'll sit awhile and head back to the room. But guess today, i just got carried away by sharin updates with my family. Jeez.

The next few days, or rather the whole week will be filled with tests every single day. Hope the weekdays will pass faster before i can relax a lil on sat.

Right, till then, Ciao~

Exams.

Finally, my projects and assignments for this semester have totally came to an end. It feels kinda weird having no datelines to remember or parts here and there to complete. But unfortunately, there are numerous number of tests coming up (4 tests next week!) plus an additional role play. And right after that, which is the V.day week and i'll be slightly more relaxed and then, exams would be one week after that.

But after exams, i'll be freeeeeee. :)
Holidays will officially start on the 1st of March and end on the 28th of April, near two-months of holis!

Have been really homely for the past few weeks. Home school home school home. Projects and assignments are a killer back then, and i'm glad to say its over.

Lene and Val just left my house not long ago. Went chomp with leney earlier on and did a bit of groceries shopping with her there as well. Grabbed a few green apples and two big red apples. The reader digest influenced me. Well, Healthy Living gonna start now yes.

So val, lene and i brought my sister plus her friend to walk around the Pasa Malam downstairs. Its been a long time since we've visited one, and it could be seen that people seldom frequent Pasa Malam nowadays, its getting so quiet. It's quite sad to see the people tending the stalls to be sitting there waiting and waiting patiently for customers. Perhaps the food stalls are the only ones that are slightly busier though.

Right, and i still like the Malay Beef Ramli Burger from Pasa Malam. ;)





Pictures for the past few days...

School.


Fish & Co. Date. :)


Right, V day is coming, New year is coming, and yeah, Exams are coming as well. Perhaps my date for V day would be the lessons and New year might be spent at home muggin' mostly. Can't wait for exams to be over and done with.

Im gonna rest now.
Ciaoz~
