bye 2011 hello 2012
January 5, 2012
- What energised me most in 2011?
- Which relationships brought me the most joy? Why?
- Which relationships put me under the most pressure? Why?
- What were the “defining moments” of 2011?
- What strengths did I see in myself during 2011?
- Under which conditions did I see myself thrive?
- What did I avoid doing that I know I most needed to do?
- What books and mentors had the greatest impact on me? Why?
- Am I closer to my friends and family from my activities last year?
these questions actually look kinda hard to answer! shall answer them in a private post probably.
so anyway xmas and new yr was filled with good food, laughter and family. happy!
2012 has alot of meaning. it means graduation, our awesome grad trip, finding a job, starting a super-brand-new phase of life, step(s) closer to fulfilling my dreams/goals. how stressful and exciting that sounds!
well first things first, i have to complete my first report for my fyp by next wed. if not im doomed. like seriously doomed. 
been so long
December 16, 2011
hello, been sometime since i have blogged.
completed my final undergraduate exams, fyp next sem. i promise to myself that i will start on my research next monday. i promise!
holidays have been eventful so far, missed out on my ocip trip. looking at the photos make me regret not standing up to my mother more. no idea why i simply said ok when she told me to not go. i had many thoughts and doubts about myself before the trip. after so many overseas trips, i was actually feeling a little jaded and i felt that the trip was a reason for me to re-discover myself. but i guess now i wont ever know. ohwell. i believe all things happen for a reason. i just havent seen the silver lining yet.
just one last sem before graduation. i can say that my mind is in a whirlwind. life seems to be going too fast for me to handle at the moment.
planning for grad trip has started. decided destination: TAIWAN. looks pretty fun considering that me and J havent been to taiwan bfore! sounds like a super big adventure. feeling excited and scared about it!
so many old people are dying around me. i feel sad.

peaceful mornings
November 2, 2011
i love waking up in the early mornings. everything is quiet, peaceful. great for doing work. even doing mundane things are more pleasant because i am at peace.
its afternoon now and i can hear thunder, buses rolling by, people stomping past my door. noise!
its so difficult to eat with my left hand.
crunch time
October 31, 2011
hi this sem marks the last of my exam papers. next sem will be just FYP FYP FYP and nothing else.
so many thoughts that are so hard to pen down.
recently finished a book titled ‘hector and his search for happiness’. was just a thin book but it set me thinking about happiness. how exactly can i find true happiness. happiness is always perceived as a ‘goal’ when it shouldnt be. i think happiness comes from within, its all about one’s mindset and expectations. but its so hard, to be not caught up in the rat race and lose our dreams along the way.
feel like gg india for grad trip. shd be an eyeopener. or china and india?
cant wait for exams to be over. so many things to do after that. need to start planning!
:(

Blackbird singing in the dead of night
Take these broken wings and learn to fly
All your life
You were only waiting for this moment to arise
ain’t this song nice?

i really miss t…

i really miss the old times back in hall.
a time where we juniors could really talk to the seniors, go out and have fun. now i just feel detached from hall. i dont feel like joining in when i see groups of pple htht-ing. no urge to join in the drinking.
maybe its because i’ve got too many things to do suddenly, i cant even manage my time properly. and i need to start exercising! miss my kickboxing and yoga lessons.
last night’s dinner with my parents was nice, felt quite good watching tv tgt and talking nonsense.
