Finally got myself the discipline to sit down and bloggg instead of watching my dramas. Oh my, I've been procrastinating to blog for so long. But nonetheless, here I am now. So I've been contacted to do a photo shoot for I-have-no-idea-what but it was a call from CCOM. Was quite shocked to see Milton around. Phew. Like okay, at least I know someone there so it won't be thattt awkward. So Milton whipped out his phone while I was doing the shoot. And so I returned the favour while he was doing his shoot. IT WAS SO AWKWARD TO TAKE PHOTOS OF SOMEONE DOING A SHOOT. Sorry I couldn't capture nice pictures of him doing the shoot due to my timidity Milton HAHAHAHA. But he took quite nice photos I must say.
For shampoo or hair related product advertisement, please contact +65 8123 4567. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.
Really happy that the bunch of people I met during the photo shoot were really nice! The girls were honestly so pretty my self esteem hit rock bottom that day though... I don't think other groups had a group photo after the photo shoot was done except for us. Exchanged instagram to tag each other and hand phone numbers for the pictures. HAHAH.
The SB kias at the photo shoot. Thank you Milton for taking care of me that day! Was really glad that you were around. And met a new friend Zhijian.
Special thanks to all those who I consulted for fashion advice. HAHAHAH. And those who helped out due to my "cannot wear own clothes for photo shoot" policy.
One Saturday while I was lazy to go out with my parents so I decided to make my own lunch.
Wow exam period was just pure madness. Family alone caused so much problems and irritated me till no ends I couldn't even study in peace. There wasn't a single day during the revision week and even up till the exam week I had peace in my heart while studying for exams. Why couldn't my family give me some peace. I just ended up either cooping myself in my room or be out the whole day for the revision week. And it didn't help when my body decided to let me down and caught itself some sore throat before it quickly moved on to a fever, then a stuffy nose with flu. I was coughing while studying and even up till the exam hall, I sat some papers with a slightly burning forehead, if not with a useless nose that I had to rely on my mouth to breath instead.
I spent 4 out of 7 revision days watching some drama I forgot what was it but I think it was a mainland drama. But then I actually spent 7 out of 7 days worrying for my Human Resource Management module. Tell me about it when it was the first D Grade I received in my entire poly life during the previous MST. An A Grade for HRM would require my utmost effort at the rate I was scoring for my MST.
Then the HRM paper was finally over I celebrated by watching Tiny Times 1.0 and 2.0. LIKE OH MY GOSH I MUST DO A POST ON TINY TIMES SOON. I just liked it soooo much that I was experiencing withdrawals and wanted to carry on with Tiny Tims 3.0 but if I carried on, I wouldn't have sufficient time to study for my Financial & Management Accounting paper. So I dealt with that huge temptation while studying my butt off for FMA.
Lunch with the brother at Ikea after my FMA paper. Satisfied my meatball craving. By the way, their salmon (I forgotten what kind of salmon my brother ordered, but I don't think it was poached salmon, maybe it was grilled salmon) was reeeeeally good. AND THEIR ALMOND CAKE WAS LIKE BAMMMMM.
So then, I was left with Quantitative Analysis paper to study for. Urge to watch Tiny Times 3.0 still going strong but thankfully I didn't.
AND THEN OH YEAH MY LAST PAPER WAS DONE. Went home straight to sleep while the other DBA kids be out celebrating. So so so sleep deprived cause I just couldn't go easy on myself. I had to make sure I was about 70% confident for the paper before I could allow myself to retire to bed. So I ended up sleeping at 2 to 3 in the morning and waking at 630am for my paper. Waking up early to work on some questions for the papers to condition my brain and to also give time for both my brain and body to officially wake up.
But what is the end of exams without a celebration? HuiEn always has plans. But sometimes plans don't really go according to your will. Remember how I just said that I went home to sleep? Well that was really my intention. But then this flow of adrenaline had me to watch Tiny Times 3.0 so I didn't sleep in the end...... Then after I finished the movie, the time was just right for me to go meet Beatrice!
We went to Serene Court to eat at the French restaurant which wasn't as nice as we expected... but the company with Beatrice was always good. Had a great chat with her about kpop over dinner, our fangirling moments and all. It was such a rare thing of me to talk about Kpop ever since I graduated from secondary school though. But she's my Korean class classmate after all right? HAHAHA.
Went to island creamery after that. TRIPLE SCOOP. NOMZ.
Went to visit Jack at Achevas when we were done with nomming our ice cream and after he was done with his lesson. Met Julia there and had a great catch up with her! We all went home together after that.
So then, we had an ACER bonding camp on the 5th to the 6th. My
nth time being a GL, but with every time comes a different kind of experience. This time it was much easier because there were trainers each group, so they sort of took over the GL role for us. This time we played more of a supporting role whereby we encouraged the group when their morale was getting low and to also take care of the group's well-being.
The camp vendor was by Innotrek. Lika wow. I saw Kat, Mimi, Vincent AND ASLAN AGAIN. It was like seeing a distant close family again, because those times at Teman Negara was just so enriching and we really shared our deepest thoughts with the trainers during the long night debriefs.
Trainer Farhan aka Natella was a really funny guy and at the end of the camp when he came up to me for a selfie he told me that he thought that he found that I had the potential to be a really great leader and that if the opportunity comes for any leadership capacity, I should take it up. It was such a sweet gesture of his and really reassuring after all that has happened in the past sem. It hasn't been easy to juggle between SPSU exco and ACER leader.
With the sushis and Angeline! Sorry Daniel who ask you run off so fast when we reached school. HAHAHAHA.
A break I think was well deserved of me after all those crazy cramming sessions and camp. Time to just chill in the comforts of my room.
My favourite flavour ever since choir camp 2009.
Just some mandatory shots of my ice cream right? :)
So the Phantoms decided to meet up before Darryl enlists into the army. Our dear, dear GL Trainer. As well as a catch up with the other GLs and Trixia. Marie had to buy a sweatpants for her China trip and so I accompanied her. But ended up got convinced by her to get a dress she picked out for me at F21. HAHAHA. Things that happen when you shop with Marie.
Always a good time with the SPSU GLs.
Then the next thing for me to look forward to was the Leadership Bonding Camp. 13th to 15th.
Camper in 2013, now as an Organising Committee in 2014. Everything changes, but still couldn't help but look back at those days and see how far I've came.
Selfie before the much anticipated "100 Seconds" game by the seniors together with fellow station masters Jing and Samsam.
Day 2 during "Protect the King" water bomb vs mummies version. Jing be like "Wa look at that hot freshie!" JOKING. HAHAHAHA.
Second night before we dispersed into our individual stations for night activity.
The Suicide Squad. Helpers + OC.
The Princesses and the Pigcesses. HAHAHAHA.
Because of you girls, camp was made a little more bearable and a little more sweeter. Love the early morning talk while having Macs breakfast at 4am in the morning. HAHAHAH.
Special thanks to Marcus, Samsam and Jon for taking care of me and always making sure I'm not carrying anything heavy (which apparently means everything HAHAHA) or doing anything "dirty" like handling the garbage or cleaning up.
And a special shout out to my night activity station partner Fieeeeqn. Thank you for keeping a look out for me and for supporting me while carrying out the activity for the campers. Helping to make the station more interesting and fun for them, as well as ourselves. I think even though it was those few hours being with you, I managed to learn a lot from you especially when we had to stall the campers before we were given the green light to release the current group for the next station. I think if you weren't there, I wouldn't have known what to do with the campers and the extra time, and probably just end up in awkward silences with them.
Slept at 630am today (which technically speaking was yesterday because it's passed 12 already) so I woke up at 12+ when mummy came into my room. I woke up to a snapchat of fat boys and miss call by Martin. AND SO I REALISED THE MISS CALL WAS A JIO BUT THEN I WAS SLEEPING SO SOUNDLY I COULDN'T HEAR MY PHONE VIBRATE. Like sigh. Went back to school to settle
some many finance stuffs. First thing when I entered Union, I got nagged by Martin, Ashwin and Shahid cause I DIDN'T PICK UP MY PHONE AND COULDN'T MAKE IT FOR THE FAT BOYS LUNCH. SIGH. They even told me they were walking around my neighbourhood planning to ring my door bell but didn't know which unit I stayed in so they just went to fat boys without me. I don't know whether to laugh that they actually walked to my neighbourhood to try find me or cry cause I missed fat boys. LOLOL.
Then when they found out why I missed the call and woke up at 12, because I was watching dramas till 630am, BECAUSE I couldn't watch my dramas for the past few days due to LBC, they laughed at me and said "DEDICATION". Meh.
So to make up for the fat boys, we decided to visit Nat at Sunday Folks. Discount + free pistachio ice cream. IT WAS SOOOOOOO GOOD.
They served great gourmet waffles topped with earl grey ice cream and graced with blueberries, strawberries, jelly and nama matcha.
Ashwin and Weizhang pangseh kia. I ended up going alone with Martz. How awkward. I thought. But thankfully it wasn't that bad. Because the travelling distance was short. And we weren't chewing on main courses. But in all seriousness, the waffles and ice cream were really great. Just that I thought that the egg smell in the waffles was a tad too strong for my preference. Other than that, I thought that it was definitely worth the price. And the ice cream was so rich, totally loved it.
And thank you Martz for taking care of me.
