Jellyfish bloop bloop

Nothing much happened ytd so Im gonna consolidate it into this post

Yippee! No tutorials so I decided to skip lecture and self-study! Happy that I was able to sleep in till 10am :D Did my notes for the last chapter for Developmental and time for lunch! And yay, mom cooked lor mee my favourite!! <3 Afternoon was erm, very very unproductive, grandma came over and she was talking so loudly and interrupting me every 10mins so didn't really studied for RMB class test. Mom decided to try home workouts and I introduced her Mike Chang Six Pack Shortcut and woo~ she liked it! After doing some reps with her, went to swim with dad and managed 1km (Y) with the flips and float at the legs! Spent the night studying for RMB and was freaking out becos I realised I didn't put some points in my cheat sheet! But oh well, no choice, had to memorise instead. Practiced each kind of test before sleeping!

It's "finally" the day for RMB theory test! Woke up feeling damn restless and slept on the bus, oh my, how I wish I could just sleep on the bus forever and ever~ Reached school pretty early these few days, I think it's probably because the semester is ending soon. The test was doable I guess? I took only around 1 hour to finish the paper and yay! Got myself an egg mcmuffin meal! WOO~ Social lecture was so long and boring, Emil being himself, taking his own time to think of what to say... Oh and Emil finally returned our term test paper after half a sem was gone xD Didn't want to see my results becos I know how that I would fail for this paper and Bingo! I failed :( Stayed back for an extra hour after class for Social presentation, FINALLY! IT'S OVER!!! Hooray! Adam also finally sent us our results for aprpa! Wah, I must say group work really pulled my results (Y) Had a mini heart attack in the morning when I realised Reflection journal 3 was long due on Monday Oh my gosh and I thought it was actually due 2 weeks ago. I guess I wasn't sober when I read that email Gabby sent xD Sigh..

Went for a swim during the evening with dad, swam 1.2km today, slowly increasing the number of laps :) Oh and this is pretty interesting; so there's this guy that tried to be a "jellyfish" once he stepped in the pool. My dad went to swim earlier than me so when my dad swam, this guy was already floating around the pool. When we swam, it was so annoying that we had to reroute/pause/ swim past him. After I finish my laps, mom decided to come down and dip in the water. The guy hasn't stop!!! We were in the pool chatting for around an hour? After we left, he was still floating around oh my xD Swimming is really a nice place to escape from stress (Y) Diving deep in the water, everything seemed to stop and everything is so silent :D

Time to finish my eulogy!!! :( I can't seem to write it :( I shudder every sentence I type omg. Wish me luck in completing it!

My face when I am writing my own eulogy 

Smooth like tofu

"ring ring ring" first alarm: 6am

"ring ring ring" 2nd alarm: 6:15am

"ring ring ring" 3rd alard: 6:20am 

Climbed back to sleep and my dad came in to wake me up! Not a good idea to sleep at 2am!!! 

Rushed to wash up, make my cereal and wow rush hour game strong. Managed to catch the 7:30 bus and reached school at 8:35am!! Such rare times I would be early for 9am classes!!! Slept all the way for my long bus ride and it was so lucky that my next bus came after I alighted and I managed to squeeze up! (Y)

RMB practical test went pretty well I guess? Managed to complete it, I was literally rushing with time man, had to click italicise, close italicise, check mean, open bracket, close bracket wah damn dizzy checking and typing the results man! I was literally freaking out when I couldn't off my caps lock when I accidentally pressed it! Was already rushing with time and the keyboard was playing with me T_T Wanted to raise my hand and tell my lecturer about that but felt that it will be pretty embarrassing saying that I couldn't off my caps. Managed to "control z" and brought back my lower caps omg. All in all, exciting test I guess!

Social presentation was urgh, I thought it will be finally over but one of my group member didn't came to school and we had to postpone presentation :( But! Tutorial ended in 30mins! Wow hahahaha! Stayed back in school to watch make up tutorials and Tara laughing at how people draw their brows xD So ridiculous! 

Mom wanted to fetch me from the interchange but she was 30mins late, ugh forever late man! So annoying! And she still can blame me for being slow when she only called a few minutes ago to change pick up location. :< Cold war with her during the afternoon, I was pretty angst for that I don't know why, maybe because I could have reached home by the time she came to pick me up! Maybe it's PMS that's why I'm having such a high level of aggression! 

Ahh, such days when I can release all my aggression on Judo, flipping people around and getting flipped by people... How I wish I have a punching bag to release all my stress and anger! But oh well, cleared the air by evening! Went to listen to Kodaline songs, and I must say they are pretty good? I still like Jazz though, it really calms me down a lot! 

Here's a cute video of Kai Kai eating!

20th Wedding Anniversary

WOO~ It's the last day of the 4 days public holiday :( but oh well, all good things must come to an end. It's my parents 20th wedding anniversary! Woke up quite late and decided to stay in at home to do some revisions and complete my RMB cheatsheet (which I only started at night oh my gosh, procrastination game strong). My parents then went on to have a date at the theatre (Mission Impossible, which I already watched). Quite productive I guess? Managed to finish my notes before my parents came back. The movie came back quite early and we went out for an early dinner at SuFood. 8 course dinner! Yay! They changed their menu and it's nice! They also had a Sg50 offer, 50% for one of our 8 course dinner (Y). There was also a "Dine for a Good Cause" event tied up with SuFood, where $1 will be donated to the Breast Cancer Foundation for every 8 course dinner ordered!

Nope, I'm not the lightbulb, I'm their photographer

Dinner was filling and the service there is great! I love good customer service :D Poor customer service really gets on my nerves because I feel that since they are working in the service line, they should do a proper job and make other's day and not upset others. Anyway, went for a walk around Raffles city and wow, there's sure a lot of ang moh tourist there xD

Lucky for dad to drive past Padang and we managed to take a look at the stage for the parade yesterday during National Day. It was spectacular and so awestruck!!! So grand and wow, I feel so proud to be a Singaporean man, all these achievement we had after 50 years :')

This is so pretty I just wish it will remain this way forever

Here's the old parliament house at the background, so grand with that lighting (Y)

Happy 20th anniversary!

After snapping some photos, we went to granny's house to accompany her and talk to her. Spent some time doing up my cheat sheet for RMB, but yeah Tanglin was on air at that time and yay, I was watching it 80% of the time and didn't do much for RMB T_T

Rushed home to do my RMB cheatsheet and wah slept at 2am :( Lesson learnt: don't procrastinate!! 

National Day

Finally a long awaited family outing! Yay, happy that my mom bought river safari tickets online and they got a national day 50% discount but only applicable if you buy the tickets to zoo + river safari :( However, we wanted to rush home to watch the national day parade so we only got the tickets to river safari! Nonetheless, it was the panda that we wanted to see :D We decided to wear red since it was national day, my dad didn't have red shirt tho but yes! He wore white instead. It was quite touching to see everyone wearing red on national day, so much patriotism!

Went to look at the panda and they were adorable! Waited quite a while till it was their feeding time and yes! They look damn adorable when they were eating oh my gosh. I guess I was standing there for close to 20 mins just looking at him eat :') So cute I just hope I can bring him home.

Jia Jia taking a nap after eating

Took a boat ride; adventure quest, and it was "thrilling"! There were steep drops, meant to scare kids I guess, and my parents were acting so funny because they didn't want to get wet so they squeezed the poor me sitting in the middle. Here's a shot of the jaguar I took when we were on the adventure quest.

The Jaguar looked quite intimidating!!!

I think one of the highlights of river safari is their glow in the dark shop! It's so fascinating! Our clothes, nails, teeth would glow! Oh and yeap, persuaded my mom to buy that panda because it's damn cute and soft to touch!!

Notice my dad trying hard to show his teeth

On the way back :) 

One of the photos I really like <3

 My parents decided to go marketing after having a late lunch and wah, the supermarket was super crowded, promotions everywhere since it's national day. Rushed home to watch the parade, and we missed the first 30mins :( But luckily, the marching in hasn't started (Y) The parade was awesome, how I wish we got the ballot and had the chance to celebrate the joyous day with fellow Singaporeans! Happy 50th Birthday Singapore!

A long long "exciting" night

So after the movie, I went to buy sunglasses with Laoda as Boss had to go home and buy dinner for her mom. Found a rather nice sunglass at cotton on! I think it suits me well :') although it cost 15 bucks and they didn't have a small carrier for it and I was so afraid I would bend or break it as it looks pretty fragile!

On the way home, I decided to give a phone call home and ask whether my parents want me to pack dinner back and I was pretty amused by my dad's response! He was like "What? you are going to pack dinner? Pack dinner?" Yeah, yes, I don't usually pack dinner home because I would then have to get off a few stops before my stop to pack, then walk 2 stops to my house. But, to think that the weather was so cooling yesterday I decided to do it! 

Went home and I was legit stunned for a second as I came home to see the state flag hanging out our window! I was puzzled and thought I went in the wrong house xD So we finally got our national fun pack! Decided to swim since I was supposed to wake up early to swim in the morning but I didn't want to sacrifice my sleep! My dad was like "Why are you going to swim when you just had a 10km trek?!" Then I told him that I had to train up my stamina for SAFVC! Then he was like oh, so are you gonna join combat, I give up man xD SAFVC is just an experience of army life, not really signing up for army oh my gosh. Talking to him really amuses me and we rarely talk because there's no topic between us like yeah :( 

Glad that I was able to push myself to swim 32 laps and that equals to 1.6km, but dad was being a selfish kid before we swam as he had a swimming fin for him hands, I said he could give me the float for my legs and he said it frustratingly "I need to swim". Ridiculous man, he's saying it as if I wasn't swimming but just having a dip in the pool. So selfish ;<

Tara was being so annoying, taking the photo on the left I took 2 years ago and comparing it with the snap I sent her :< Rude! 

After swimming my legs really felt like jelly, after all that trekking and then swimming so much wow, I guess it's really taxing on my legs. Finally watched the first episode of the new Korean drama "YongPal" with my mom and it was good! 

Then the long night began when I received a weird message from my classmate whom I really talk to inviting me to a party at a club tmr night 9pm-4am, for lesbian girls. I was pretty surprised and I thought oh, maybe she was trying to get straight girls know more about lesbian? However, I don't club because I have a strict religion to follow and yeah I don't really like the complicated atmosphere and life in clubs so I turned her down saying I had plans already, which is true as I had a class to attend. She was like "aww that sucks maybe next time?" I was caught back by that reply and didn't really know what to reply. Did she think I'm not straight? Or is she friendly oh my gosh, but yeah I replied and said I wasn't really interested. Wow, I wonder why me when she whatsapp me that? Sometimes when I go home alone, she would also suddenly whatsapp me and ask if I'm alright, why am I alone? So I always thought she was a kind and caring friend? But yeap, other than that we don't talk! 

Okay after that episode, had to settle my pms boss issue. So we initially decided to go out on Saturday to watch the Black Knights performance however, I was really lazy and tired from today's trek so I said I didn't want to go. So I think she got pretty angry and told Laoda about it and at the same time, I was talking to Laoda about it xD So Laoda was pretty busy handling both sides. YES, boss pms is really bad! She was so angsty today when we were late, and just said "Hey stop pushing back the time, if not god knows when are we going to finish trekking!" Wow that was damn angsty and nobody dared to say anything except Laoda. But yeap, I think since I already stated I am not going, there isn't anything I should worry about then, but heard that boss decided to go watch the airshow tmr alone. opps! but yeah really, I wouldn't want to go all the way to Marina (1hour journey) to watch a 20mins performance :( 

Woke up at 2:30pm the next day and that was really satisfying! Been so long since I had the chance to have more than 10 hours of sleep! Shiok ah! 

Here's a loving picture of a female money looking at a male monkey <3

A day with mother nature

Posted this one day late I was having girls talk with my mom! Really love talking about prickly issues and her experiences. It never gets boring listening to her stories and advice!

Started the day with 2 phone calls at 6am from my friend! We actually met a bet to see if she could really wake me up to swim at 6am and she really did! But oh well, I answered her call and fell back asleep xD

Was supposed to meet at Macs at 9am but all of us were late and we only reached at 930am, then we went to search for directions on how to go treetop walk. To be honest, I am pretty impressed by y navigating skills yesterday! Normally, I would just follow my 2 older friends and tag along and today I actually lead the way! It was quite easy to find the place, as a lot of people were there since it was a public holiday. The trek was quite tiring as there ups and downs,  just like life, oh well. After a long and tiring trek (we had to climb a long steep slope before reaching), we finally reached the entrance to the long awaited treetop bridge! But, the sky decided to play with us and it rained heavily! Luckily, we were prepared and brought our umbrella but still, the rain was so heavy that our shoes were all wet, making our socks all soggy in our shoes and it feels terribly yuckish! The monkeys there were entertainment for the long queue as they swang from branches to branches and scratched their body. Damn cute! Queued for a good 30mins I suppose, I think 60% of the people queueing were tourists! After what seemed like eternity, it was finally our turn! Took some pictures and walked past the bridge as there was people  behind us :(


So, we decided to stop at the end of the bridge and let the crowd pass before taking a picture! It was pretty funny when we were all so worried about getting wet in the rain and all, running around and taking quick snaps as another crowd is already approaching us and that is when a near tragedy happened!! So star decided to hand me her phone to help her take a picture and SLIP! The phone fell onto the ground and bounced a little!! We were literally screaming omg, the phone was only 1cm away from the end of the platform. We really thank god that her phone didn't drop if not it will never be recovered man...

The way down was just continuously ups and downs of stairs and it was never ending. So fast forward to lunch, took a bus and went to a nearby eatery. Ordered a feast and ate like a bear xD It was damn filling and damn  satisfying after a 10km trail. Yes, 10km.

Star had to go home after lunch as she has class at her home in the evening while the rest of us decided to watch Mission Impossible! Happy that there were still seats! Yay! The movie was awesome! But i couldn't help to think "Wow Tom Cruise is really old" throughout the movie. Oh, my friends and I were literally shivering throughout the movie as we were donned in our sports attire, shorts and wow were survived the cold in that!

Alright, shall continue my story in the next post as this is getting a lil long!!

Started the day with macs with LaoDa and Boss! 

Off we go to TreeTop Walk! Sitting at the front of the upper deck bus is like sitting on a roller coaster! 

Managed to take a photo while walking on the bridge, our umbrellas kept getting stucked tho :(

Decided to take a step photo on the way down, yes I'm terminator. 

Productive day although it didn't start off that great

The morning started off with "hey! Are you going out with your mother? WAKE UP! WAKE UP!" yeah, that's my grandma's way of waking me up whenever she's comes over to my house. I always get tired and grumpy whenever I wake up before my alarm rings :( But oh well, all is great when my mom is going to give me a lift to school! Rare times when I will be early for school xD

Lecture went pretty well I guess? Stayed back after school for running club at 5:30pm, and that means I have 4.5hour of break!!! Spent 4 hours doing my APRPA poster and I am so glad that I was able to finish it?! The weather was so chilly today and I actually thought running club might be cancelled. But oh well, there's still running club. :( I thought I was gonna do fine but oh my, my stamina really sucks. Really really really need to buck up man, what happened to my 37mins for 5KM record?! :( Now I'm running close to 1hour for just 4.3KM? Oh my goodness.. Time to train for Commando Challenge which is in 2 months! And really need to train for next year's NAPFA; push-ups, sit-ups and the horrifying 2.4KM..

 On a side note,the long weekend is here! National day 4 days holiday YAY! Gonna make use of these 4 days to train as much as I can! Strong determination to make a comeback man! So excited for tmr's day out with the amk judokia! 10km trek to treetop walk, follwed by the carnival at botanic garden! Yay! Going out with them always lifts my mood and helps me to destress! Gonna try waking up early tmr to swim! hmm, first step to improve stamina? I hope I would be able to wake up tho! 

This snap is too amusing lah

Year 2 and going strong! I hope I am!

Wow, been reading through my old posts and it's kinda humorous i guess? All those struggles I once had, all those disappointments. But hey, what I learned was "with higher expectations, comes greater disappointment", so maybe that's why I was so disappointed with myself in the past.

 Year 2 lo! Actually it's going to be Sem 2.2 soon! Things have gone pretty well I guess, quitted TP Judo! I think that's a thing to rejoice, like seriously xD since it's giving me troubles so why not just quit and enjoy life in Poly? Once i quit TP Judo, going to training in the Cheng San CC has been getting inconsistent, I think mainly because I don't have a long-term training partner and of course, I would like to spend more time with my granny. She's getting weaker and weaker, and I really hope I can be by her side every week, to visit her and make her smile :D

 Glad that I was able to serve the school by getting in into P.Co, I hope that I would be able to learn more in there and of course, make more friends!! Was able to drag a few friends with me to join BYAA Gold Challenge hahaha! Took me some time to convince them the benefits of it! Also, I went to join HSS running club, I think it's quite a good idea to make myself exercise, although I have to stay in school till it's quite late?

 Oh ya, was chatting with my friend, star today and she was telling me about the SAF Volunteer Corps, wow, it's really pretty cool! I think we will probably be joining it next year after she's done with her A levels! Damn excited for it lah! Also, I finally pulled her and my cousins to join the Commando Challenge! It's really going to be a challenge man, those obstacles are really hard, and I think I better train hard for it so I would not be a burden in my team (4 in a team)!

 Yeap, I shall make it a point to write a blog everyday and record down things that are happy! :)

 P.S found this photo and I think it's pretty amusing when my friend added this to my story in snapchat! hahahaha!
