Lerk thai!~

today marks the day that I'm finally out to shop with my sister and mummy. We went to bugis and the first stop was to check out the new mall, Iluma. To my surprise, it was quite empty, probably because a number of shops have yet to start their businesses there. I think banana republic will be there. I love the material of their clothings. We didnt want to eat there so mum wanted to bring us to a shop where they sell xiao long baos as sis has been complaining that she wanted some. We passed by a shop where there are xiao long baos but sis said, " there isnt any waitress serving us" so we left. In the end, we went to Lerk thai.

Their food was okay to me but I didn't like their tom yum. It lacks something but I can't explain. I'm not a food gourmet! We ordered their hor fun which mum ate, and tom yam noodles which sis had; mine was their set lunch which included, beef, fried dumplings, unripen papaya,tom yum and rice. I was full. To me, it was just satisfactory.

Thereafter we went to NLB and had to queue up to tap our cards, think they used their laptops to check our temperature or safety limits as they did not use any thermometer to check our temperature. I wanted to borrow books from Lee Kong Chian Reference Library but I couldn't find any borrowing station there. Then, I approached the staff there and they told me you cant borrow. So embarrasing! haha. It's okay. At least I went through some notes there.

We went shopping at BHG after library and sis got herself some stuffs and she also bought me a new pair of shoes from Muji. A birthday gift. How nice is that? Thanks so much. I hope I can fulfil your birthday wish this year.

im getting motivated.

to be in class everyday. because its the start of year 2 and i'm studying modules which are related to my course already. i really do not like computing maths and enterprise.

the past two days has been hectic, reaching home at 7plus-8plus. making me feel so exhausted. bus trips are getting on my nerves as i take 1hr20mins to reach home. next time, mrt concession. The new circle line will be functioning soon and I will have lesser waiting time and also lesser travelling time. Praise God for that. =)

People has been asking me, when will you be going back to church and stuffs; and I probably will have to say, not in due time. A lot of things happened at home, and I need to be there; not to do things which my family is unhappy about, but do things which they feel its okay too. I will, obey my parents and listen to whatever they say and also sit and listen to whatever valuable lessons that they teach.

Really thank the people who has been always there to guide me when I make mistakes. They never blamed me but they teach me how not to repeat the mistake and move on in life. There are ups and downs and sometimes you just have to let go. No use thinking about it anymore, just move on as everyone will face the similar things here or there.

ever since the RP system changed, lesser lunch time hours and lesser catching up periods with friends already. i know i've been neglecting my closest girlfriends due to heavy workload but i guarantee you guys will see me soon!~

all the best to Shannon who is still waiting for her results for entry to NTU. I will support in whatever things you do. sorry for not making time for you. real busy with quite a lot of things in school.

SLA fiesta will be on from 28-30apr. booth 68. agora hall 3. do come down and show your support. =)

will be updating this mundane blog with more pictures.
rest tomorrow, no school!~ =)

what's new.

Uniqlo.

went there today with mum and sis.
bought some stuffs there and I think I'm loving it.
their quality is good and they have affordable prices.
hope they will still have some promotions after the 19th.

got a long tee.
sis got herself a parka hoodie and a basic white tee.

Im longing for school.
holidays are making me bored.
monday!
please come quickly.
=)

a brand new part of life.

Attended the freshman orientation in school today. went to help out my own pharmaceutical IG of course. had some fun talking and discussing some issues with the president. Seems that she is quite busy with work and all, but we all have to move on the another part of life. Had some fun viewing the coming year 1s playing tug of war and I think SAS got 2nd, behind SHL, but SAS top the rest of the school's in the Principal's cup, so overall we are the winner! =)

My aunt was asking me yesterday, what was your expectation of a guy when you are 16, and what is your expectation now? I told her of course, my expectation would be higher compared to when I was 16. And she told me, 5 years later, your expectation will change. I agreed.

Yin Fong just left my place not long ago. We were talking and catching up with each other after so long. We have been real busy these few weeks and had a small discussion on PP(professional profiling.) I hope I will be able to finish up the project scope(which I havent started) on saturday.
Thank God that somehow know who to interview already.

While she was here, we went to LEO(our learning portal) to check on the activities and curriculum we are going to go through during year 2 and I was kinda shocked to hear her say, " per module 2 lab sessions." that would be only 8 lab sessions for me! She would have 10 because of her elective.
I will be taking elective next semester as I want to complete my PP in semester 1.(more free time.) =)

All of us have to go on in life. Looking back in year 1, I do admit that I slacked alot. And I told myself to change! I MUST CHANGE. CHANGE mindset, change way of studying else I will regret. I don't want to regret later in life so I need to buck up. You can do it if you believe in yourself that you can achieve. The system in RP has changed. I would say I do prefer the new system. =) 25%UT1, 25%UT2, 50%UT3. I would regard UT3 as an exam.

Lotsa things to say.. Tomorrow will be heading down to tampines one to visit the new malls and the shop uniqlo from Japan. Hope it wont be too boring as quoted by a friend.

Till then!
=)

Fear.

I was thinking, what's fear?

Fear is when you are afraid of something, something is calling you to hurt yourself, but when there is fear, God said, do not fear, for I am with you wherever you go, wherever you are, no matter where are you, He said; I am with you. He is your secret place, He is protecting you under His wings. " Be strong and of good courage, for I am with you wherever you go. "

My Lord said, He will never ever let me go. Never! Hes telling me you can to conquer your fear because He said " we are more than conquerors through Him who loves us." He gave me the verse, 1 Corinthians 13.

Its talking about what's love. Love is patient and kind, love endures all things, does not rejoice at wrong, but rejoices in right. =] Throughout all these years, I've learnt to let go and let God.

I have to learn and listen to what others is talking, and from there, I begin to understand the power of love. I remembered what God empowered me through His Love when I was very young. Yahweh.

Jehovah - Rohi - "Jehovah, my Shepherd" Psalm 23:1
Psalm 23

The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.
He makes me to lie down in green pastures;
He leads me beside the still waters.
He restores my soul;
He leads me in the paths of righteousness for His name sake;

Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,
I will fear no evil;
For you are with me;
Your rod and your staff, they comfort me.
You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies;
You anoint my head with oil;
My cup runs over.
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life;
And I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever.

where am I?

im totally lost.

no sense of direction.

nowhere to be found.

I miss where I used to belong.

what is happening to me?

give me the unity that i used to have.
the bonding. the kind of friendship that nobody else could give.

Life.

Whats life?

Life is full of ups and downs, and it means learning mistakes from people, everyone has a life to seek, a life that helps you to improve better. Why say so? When good things happen to baddies and bad things happen to goodies, .....

all that is life is unfair.

Life can be so amazing when you look unto the brighter side of life. When can such things happen? When you open yourself up and see the light. There can be positive outlooks on life only if you could open up the secret.

I know many people has been retrenched and are very affected by the economic downturn. God once told me, even when you are in your darkest days, Jesus will be leading you, because He's a lamp unto your feet, light unto your path. I never gave up throughout the darkest days of my life, and he brought me out of it. Alot of disappointments in people, seen failures, (even in works of myself), but God told me, hang on, the best is yet to be(ACS motto). I believe if we keep trying, we will succeed. Diligence before success(ZhongHua Primary's motto). Why am I typing this out? This is because everything that has breath will also want to strive, even for the better. Who doesnt want to improve? Everyone wants to have a better life each and everyday, but you must be contented with what you have. God loves us for who we are, not what we can be. We need God. His love is sufficient; the greatest love of all.

Hope, there is hope in everyone. Never look back into your past, for your past said, " I am dead. " Everyday is a brand new day, a brand new coming. Embrace the good future wonderfully. I know that the future is in your hands. The holy spirit leads and guides me everyday, my counsellor, my best friend. I miss where I used to be.

ALWAYS LOOK ON THE BRIGHT SIDE OF LIFE!

A song 4 u :

告诉他主唱： 何耀珊

词：李宗盛

曲：黄韵仁

我让自己惊讶

那么傻

面对人生变化

真的快乐在哪儿

都问啦

总是没有解答

当我遭遇困难关卡

孤身在天涯

每当我心里有话

就告诉他

告诉他

所有担心害怕

所有忧虑牵挂

我相信他一定有方法

就告诉他

告诉他

所以困惑挣扎

所有渴望缺乏

交给他

他是温柔光亮的灯塔

初九 & 十

初九

went to Plaza Singapura to catch bride wars with Shannon.
forgetful me forgot to take pics with her though the camera is in the bag.
argh. remind me next time please,
=)





初十

planned to go to ECP with Yin Fong, but it was pouring like cats and dogs, I was praying in my heart, let me stop when she reaches, but it was still pouring.. then, we went to parkway parade to shop. and guess what, both of us got gifts for each other and another friend too. Quite surprisingly, then I know that this is because the Lord's plan is way higher than mine; so I was grateful for it.
=) when can I stop spending on clothes? I think every girl's desire is to be beautiful, because we only live once. One life, live it! ( quoted by M1 ).
I'm going into bags now.
No LVs, No Gucci, No Burberry, No Coach.
but something different.
what are youngsters doing nowadays.
DARE TO BE DIFFERENT!
