Secondary School Reunion

Hair colour update! I've bleached my hair twice & put on an ash dye to achieve this look (:

I did my hair myself heh heh. The bleach was from Gatsby E-Hi Bleach Series & the Ash Hair dye was bought from City Square (J.B)~

Then I realised that the hair looks like..

Jean from Shingeki no Kyojin Hahahhahaha! XD

( just a kinder version :3 )

Anyways, I met up with my Secondary School clique after a really really long time. We had a little friction years ago and we didn't meet up.

However, I honestly feel to a certain extent (my dad) , got us back together and we were catching up like old times. 

Well, we all made mistakes when we are young & we have grown up already. It is important to let bygones be bygones. It's been a long time since we all met! 

And it was funny how our memories of each other were stuck 4 years ago.

We ate Poulet for Dinner!

I was craving for Poulet for quite sometime and I finally satisfied my tummy :3 

The mashed potato there as the bombzz (as usual) and I had one servings all by myself (:

&& I FINALLY MET KYMM (YAY)

It was such a long time since we met and had a proper chat!! I will never let anyone spoil our friendship from now on. It feels nice to not have restrains like meeting anyone and the opposite gender. We met the rest at Starbucks & Yay to group pic :D

 Weiyi, Junjie, Cheryl, Tionglin, Clarisa, Weiling, (me) & Kymm !

One more group pic before we left Vivo!

I am so glad to have them all back in my life. These are the people that made up almost half of my life , starting from 13 years old. I am starting to believe that friends that crosses the 7th Year mark, does become eternal friends.

It may sound mushy but, I really did miss you all. We caught up as per normal, despite the years of not meeting. We laughed and joked about our progress and its heartwarming to see how we have grown from complaining Mr Lim & Azlina to like work and jobscope and leaves.

Well, some other gossips still remain intact thou :3

Looking forward to meeting them again *touched tears*

Lab Stuff

Recently, lab is driving me crazzzzzyy :o
I think as science students, we all will agree that lab is a super tedious and annoying session.
It is a love-hate relationship with lab.
Without lab , we can't earn a livelihood *it is what we are paid for* but at the same time with lab is super time consuming and some wrong steps can cause the entire procedure to go wrong. (CRIES)
At the same time, we expose ourselves to possibly carcinogenic and mutagenic chemicals *for the better of mankind?* or just for our ricebowl and to lead a decent life.

But at the same time, I feel that scientists/ lab researchers are very underrated because as much as the Nobel prize winners are widely recognised, that is probably 5% of the population. 
There is so much competition from searching for the newest element, or chemical structure that cures cancer. And as far as research goes, if you didn't find anything, you have wasted your time.
Or worst, If you found something, but slower than other people who have published it, you have wasted your time.

All in all, it is a time-consuming process and even for testing labs, many procedures are required along with thousand of samples and a concerning deadline. And more often then not, the pay may not be comparable to your secondary school teacher.*coughs*
So probably, next time when you hear of someone who does research/ lab stuff, hopefully you might see the person in a different light.

Okay, I spent accumulative of 6-7 hours just doing a pro forma (not a full lab-report) and started typing nonstop. Partly cause I suck-ed at Microsoft Excel and cant do graphs and equations well.
And recently, some issue came up with lab that is going to stall my trip! @*&(*@^*(#(*#*#
Shall call the office tomorrow to see what really happened, and hope to get that cleared.

*On a happier, lighter note*
Here is an old picture of my turquoise hair which I liked, super long ago and haven't posted it before due to some reasons last time.

Come to think of it, was I really that fair 5 years ago? I sort of became more and more tanned recently, hmmmm. Need to start avoiding the sun and look more 'un-humanly' fair (:

Selfie Stick

Today I was looking around for selfie stick as my travel log vids are like too close to my face.
Plus there are times where it is easier to stabilise your video with a selfie stick compared to my wobbly arms.
So I was asking for my sisters' if they had any and a funny conversation was made.

Me: 'Sis-es do you have selfie stick?' 

Elder Sis: 'Nope I dont have'

2nd Sis: 'I think I might have but I need to find.'

Mum: 'You need what? There are alot of Satay Sticks in the drawer.' 

Us: ROFLLLLLL  

We all burst out laughing hahahha.
Luckily my 2nd sis had one and it fits my camera!
Preparing for a travel log at the end of this month (:

Re-adjustment

So today my family went to many places.
We went to check on my dad's CPF, HDB, Town council and his banks.
It is really frustrating to not be able to do most of the important transactions due to no letter of authorisation. So that falls back to the lawyer's arrangement.
Thankfully for my cousin, we found a helpful lawyer at a decent rate which will be able to help us.
It was really tiring waiting for Q number, due to the day right after the public holiday and we spent about 2 hours waiting at bukit merah. *inserts sad face*

After that we went back home and my grandmother was still in the bed, at 2pm.
It was really frightening because she was lying down and had her eyes closed tightly.
She was not responding to our voices and was shaking her head groggily.
After much persuasion we managed to got her to the bathroom to bathe.
I hope my grandmother's health will get better as she seems to get weaker by day ):

Tomorrow I will go back to school and I have more or less caught up with the lectures.
There are still some school assignments here and there which I have yet to finish but I guess I will cope.
Also, there are more deadlines approaching and I have yet to start on them.
It is time to start on them soon *gulps*

CNY DAY 1 & 2

I woke up around 10 am yesterday and tried to watch lectures that I have missed.
Also there was ALOT of school work to catch up on.
What is worse is that one week from now will be a TermTest, which to be honest, I have yet to be revising over. *cries*

In the afternoon , my whole family was awake and we decided to plan our steps from today.
We sorted out the steps needed, expenses and what to do with the company.
Mostly importantly, what we need now is a lawyer to facilitate the case.
And as it is cny, most firms are not operating so we have to wait slightly later.

We booked a movie at 4pm so that we can distract ourselves and laugh a little.
The movie was 'The Fortune Handbook'

The film was quite funny, showing how different classes of gods, are trying to compete into the Fortune God class. And to do so they have to help people with their wishes and collect ingots as an assignment.The god, Mark Lee, went around asking people to chant his script to grant all their wishes. This film speaks alot about family (*cough not so good timing*) and people's greed and desire. It was still a decent film afterall and it was really funny to see Christopher Lee & Lee Nan Xing fighting it out from time to time.

I felt Christopher Lee really went all out portraying this hooligan-ish character who is in love with spraying his head with hairspray. All the hip twists & underwear scenes hahaha, really unexpected of him. I also like Lai Yi Ling's acting here acting as a semi bimbo who is deeply in love with his husband, Christopher. She then had a slightly transformation due to another reason  o.o

Also, this film speaks about doing good deeds and not just fulfilling one's desire. There were several times of this film where it got pretty emotional and made some people teared. 

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

After that my family and I went back to my grandmother's house. My 2nd sis drove us on the way back.We weren't allowed to visit house, but my mom was just going back to her house.

We didn't say 'Happy New Year' to other people and just smiled.

My cousins and relatives were kind of worried about us when we didn't arrive. I am glad to see their faces (esp prawn whom I frantically waved in the car before she almost left)

They were all concerned for us and they even set up the dining table for us to have a steamboat dinner when it was already cleared up.

Most of them gave us encouragement and also asked us to keep a look out for my mom. I also finally had to chance to see Patchy after so long. I also played with Chester & Momo and somehow I felt a little better playing with the doggies. 

After that I drove the car home,(I only drove like less than 2km the previous time) and it was really nerve-wrecking. It was around 10pm and I never drove at night before :x My contact lenses were abit dry and my siblings had to keep a look out of my alignment as my skills were really rusty.

Today is the 7th day of my dad's passing. There are many things to prepare and do.

But I hope that he is at a better place now. (: 

New Year Eve (Reunion)

This is a first year dinner without my dad, we had our charcoal grilled dinner with our favourite korean pork and vegetables. It felt a little empty but we filled his bowl and plate with dishes that we cooked.
I really loved eating Korean pork wrapped with vegetables & abit of chili and whatever is available in on our grill pan. My family loves eating it this way and it is fun eating like that.
We can customize different food in the wrap and have a different taste with every wrap (:

&& today after 2 years, I finally met up with Nette!
It was time to put behind the past and move on with life.
We put back the bad blood and decided to start afresh (:
It is time like this that my old friends got back to me, all of them.
Ranging from secondary school and gv days.
It daunted on me that only important people would want to be with me at my weakest.
These are the friends that I made myself and they hold a special place in my heart.
Met up with Ed & Xueni too! We had a good time chatting and decided to watch horror show next time as it has been a LONG time since I ever watched a horror film.

A photo of us (:

Finding the Real Me

It has been a while since I penned my thoughts into a blog post.
Many years ago,  I have been focusing on a business, another person's business.
And after some conflicts, I think I should focus on myself.

I feel like I lack my personality inside my posts and they are starting to look very catelogue-ish.
I used to be spontaneous and do everything and post whatever I want.
However, as time goes past, I become more concerned about whether it looks good and whether it is picture worthy.

Without knowing it myself, I have lost the essence of why I started blogging.
I made this blog because I like documenting what happened to me and my personal experience.
Everything here is raw and I can say whatever I want.
I miss the old me where I don't have to be concerned of whatever small things that I am doing.

I have figured out that, I will continue my Own blog, as this has been a little diary of mine, documenting all sorts of things and journeys since my younger days. (yes u will see some cringe worthy pics if u scroll all the way down) Hahhaha.

Many things have happened lately and as of which, brought attention to me that I was losing myself.
I don't want to be pleasing people, and change my character to fit their liking.
I have unknowingly been doing so for 2 and a half years and it is time to wake up.

I do what I want, and if you are unhappy, you can click the (x) button on the top right corner.
So now, I will focus on revamping this blog, my youtube and my instagram, to bring out the new me.
And YES, I am a very wordy and lengthy person. So be prepared to squint your eyes and read a little when you click into read more (:

Thank you for reading!
