Crunch Time

I would willingly buy a hardcopy of this dictionary and read it just for fun. Random fact: I used to read English dictionaries for fun as a kid. I'd run out of things to read at home and my entire series of Enid Blytons and Archie comics had already been read only about 978327687423 times. Mommy refused to buy me more books because Daddy was a hoarder of books and our house was just bursting with books and we had to buy new bookshelves for books you get the drift. She told me to read the daily newspapers but I've a fear of touching newspapers and I'm not alone so that makes me feel better and yet another random fact!

Anyway, I almost fell asleep during an exam earlier on. Had two papers in a day and was thinking it'll be a breeze but never did I expect my brain to slowly shut down after the first paper was done. It was so horrible trying to stay awake. The student behind me was probably cursing and swearing at me for being so fidgety in my seat.

Need to rest my brain cells now. Another paper on Saturday which I haven't studied for, so I'm going to spend this public holiday studying. Good times good times.

Daily Life on Instagram #2

Using Instagram photos is such a lazy way to write up blog entries but with it, there's almost no need to bring my camera around (in its crumbling pouch thanks to Sundae's teeth) anymore. Plus, I haven't had time to do anything interesting besides the usual food photos of daily meals T_T

School is taking such a toll on me because I'm feeling extreme stress of doing well this semester and I'm quite unwilling to jeopardize my results due to laziness and confusion this time round. Ask any of my friends in school and they'll tell you I know absolutely nothing about what's going on, even the names of classmates that I've been with for 3 semesters now. Totally not being uppity but #1 I'm bad with names, #2 Very Extremely bad memory, #3 I've enough to worry about without getting into the whole drama in school because shit tends to happen when you make more 'friends'.

Gotta say that people these days have too much time on their hands that they can create so much drama just within a single cohort of students. I'll rather be sleeping, eating, or shopping #deprived

Thai Express, shame on me

While I stay awake for 36hrs to complete an assignment

Rewarding myself handsomely in terms of calories


This requires some elaboration. All these clothes are new and have been stowed away everywhere in my wardrobe, so I decided to do a little re-organization and realized omg I'm still a hoarder. It's so bad that I've to vacuum pack them to save space?!?! Been trying my best to stop buying more clothes and I've been doing quite well for the past few months. Decided to invest more money in my face, hair, and health and those are seriously so costly because they're all in the hundreds T_T x1000009893523

Anyway, I was facing a storage issue so now, I'm using mommy's luxury bags to store my clothes in since they were empty anyway (storage tip #1). Hope she doesn't read this blog entry thoroughly, and yes she does read my blog :-/ Am thinking of purchasing more Muji boxes too, they're so good for pretty storage. Under my bed ha ha (storage tip #2). Or in a large suitcase also cleverly hidden under my bed (storage tip #3). But the fact that I'm hiding things may indicate signs of a disorder so please do not listen to me!

Banmian at FEP brings back memories

Grandma makes such good tangyuan in coconut soup ♥

My favorite are the pink colored ones

Crystal Jade noods which gave me a tummyache because of too much oil!


It's a Sunday and I've work to do. Why can't I graduate already?

Have a great day y'all ;)

Daily life on Instagram



Tidied my closet in hopes of making it look like a store



Redken Cocktail hair treatment at Salon Vim

First purchase from Soeurs

This cute shoe store is located at Cineleisure Orchard. Bought this pair of genuine leather wedges for $79 (which's kinda the price of footwear at Zara), but it's pretty worth it because it's real comfortable and hello do you see the cute pattern on the wedge?! Following in the footsteps of my BFF in supporting local businesses ☺

♥♥ from Darren when he went to Texas

New un-frizzy hair thanks to Salon Vim!

Carbs at Boon Tong Kee before drinks

The only thing I drink: sour plum vodka + Sprite

Purses are for resting my head on, says Sundae

Not nice at all.

Punkat at Far East Plaza + friends: so good

I cooked: Thai basil chicken sans basil

I cooked: Claypot tofu sans claypot

Friday night party

$92 not-so-good Korean meal :(

Morning booze for the worst lecture of my life

Sundae the boss of the neighborhood

Now it's back to completing the essay that is due in approximately 9hrs time. Good luck to me and happy Sundae to you!

Bye Sunday

Kinokuniya was having their 20% members' sale this weekend so I finally got to get out of the house far far away from my books! Hmm that's ironic.

My hair was slightly wavy because I tried curling my hair and failed miserably. I've forgotten how to curl my own hair when I used to do it on game days in high school! Many many years ago ha. Not to mention it rained just as we were about to leave home so my hair went limp, sigh.


 Judging from puffy eyes and eyebags, we're both seriously sleep-deprived, overworked, and super stressed ARRRGH. Okay back to textbooks :'(

Study Break

Haven't updated here in awhile because my exams start this coming Wednesday, and I haven't done anything much besides bum around at home. Can't wait to get these damned exams done and over with so I can get out of this damned country for a vacation I need.

And I haven't gone shopping in the past month or so in a desperate last minute attempt to save moolah. Life kinda sucks right now. UGH!

Noon Nap

I got my hair did and my nails done.

Have no idea where I learned that from but it sounds funny!


So sleepy in the afternoon I can't even concentrate on drafting out my presentation and paper. Neither do I have time for a nap though the post title says otherwise. Really hoping for one but I'm heading out sooooon.

Really wonder how will I survive when I start working long hours from Mondays to Fridays. Classes on Mondays to Wednesdays (lol) are already killin' me.

Alright, back to work.

Update:

Just came home from such a good meal at Grandma's. Everytime I'm there I behave like some malnourished kid who hasn't eaten in months and I do feel a tad bit embarrassed by my own actions but whatever. I LOVE MY GRANDMA!


Hopefully this Mocha Frap Grande would get me through the report writing tonight. Wanted to get a Venti but I've to give my zits some rest later because they need to disappear by tomorrow afternoon. Hopefully my bangs would grow another inch in the night too.

This weekend's going to be a blast!

OOTD on a crazy day

So glad to have handed in my report paper and made it for my appointment. It was such a crazy afternoon of rushing around getting things done I could've died along the way. But I didn't thanks to a very good breakfast.

Going to the market to get food for myself in the morning reminds me of why I'll never be a stay-at-home housewife.

Spent the rest of the morning ripping out pages from People magazine so I can update my behind the door decor for this month. It's the only magazine I buy now because the content is actually worth the $10.


A simple OOTD for the warm afternoon. Darren is a really bad photographer, or maybe it's because I can't keep still. Nope I think it's his bad photography skills. I don't know how else to take OOTD photos! Unless I ask my maid to help but she'll think I'm crazier than I already am.

Had a quick dinner of sushi with Darren before heading home feeling lost on a Friday night. Have you ever had those days of wanting to go out and do something fun because it's the weekend, but staying in sounds equally good as well? I'm having one of those days (again).

So sleeeepy and on an annoyed sidenote, DHL will only deliver my package tomorrow morning because they didn't manage to complete all deliveries by today?!?! This has never happened before and I'm so upset.

DHL I AM SO DISAPPOINTED IN YOU.
