Colour Run 13'

Hey! so it is already around 11pm and I have exams tmr but I really wanted to do this blog post today :) So here I go. Today, 18th of August, I have another day to add to my list of 'highlights of my life'. I got to participate in this 5km untimed run called 'Colour Run'. I have shared this with you guys in my previous posts I think :) So, of course before I set off, I had to take an ootd(outfit of the day) haha!

Then after that, I just met up with a few friends. Out of 4 of them, I honestly only knew one of them which is Jolynn haha. But seriously, I can't be more glad to have gotten to know 3 new friends this month. Plus, I have to thank them as well for making this experience as fun as it was for me.
Kym beside me haha, Jolynn in the middle with the bangs, Annika beside her and lastly, Kevan which is the only dude in this picture.... haha!
So, we just ate lunch and talked and got to know each other and we had to go to Long John Silvers -.- but the food wasen't THAT bad haha. After that, we walked around Vivo a bit and got some Starbucks 
I decided to try out what is usually called 'cotton candy frap' haha! Of course, I had to get the cream because its the best part! 
so we just did stuff and walked around until it was time to go to Sentosa. I decided to take some pictures with  Kym on the way haha!
ooooo :))
Anyways, after a lot of walking and being clueless and stuff, we started the race. BUT, of course, we walked like aunties on a hunt for some new pair of sparkly pants(i just made that up haha) I loved the adrenaline rush everytime we knew a colour 'attack' was up ahead. Pink was definitely my favourite but it also got everywhere and I had a hard time getting it off when I got home. While we walked, we took lots of photos and videos. I would be doing a very short 'teaser' video on it then I'll do a detailed vlog so stay tuned for the next few posts :) After we finished, we stayed and danced and screamed a bit before going home :) so here are the pics...





And of course my finished product/masterpiece......

Haha! Yes, I had to scrub a lot when I got home. It even hurt! But can I just add that even though I started to get really irritated with all the pink everywhere when I got home, it is really one of the best times i have had. To add on to that, I could not have asked for a better before-birthday event. Through this post I also want to thank all the special people that shared today with me and though I have only just met you today/a few hours ago, I just want to say that.. I LOVE YOU GUYS!!!
hahaahahahha yup kay. gtg sleep. LOVE YA!

Those days :( || CyberTalk

Hello :) It's nice to be writing(typing) again. Tomorrow is the first day of CA exams and I have to say that I am pretty jacked up. I rarely make blog posts about this stuff but I thought that through this I can help others out there that feel the same way and perhaps somehow help myself.

So. I have been feeling rather down lately. 2 minutes ago I was breaking apart haha. I don't know why but I have been so stressed and overwhelmed with I don't even know what. It could be studies and everything. Idk. Whenever I feel sad or stressed out, I always start to think about those who are so much less fortunate than me. Those who have really tough parents or tough CCA's even. Those who reach home at 6 or 7 everyday because of competitions or tuition etc. I would tell myself that I shouldn't pity myself and blah blah blah. But heres advice for me and all of you reading this: Do not pity or look down on yourself/life. But, at the same time, it is okay for you to feel upset. It is okay for you to sometimes choose not to talk to anyone that day. And it is okay for you to show it. You do not have to smile or laugh or pretend everything is fine when it really isn't. But at the same time, I guess this is how people like me are.
 I just have this 'instinct'. Some people call it a habit. I hide my feelings all the time. I might feel as crappy as ever that day, but I will still pretend everything is fine. Now, I know a lot of people like that. I know when they are trying to hide the fact that they are hurting or just something is bothering them. But at the same time, if you do have the courage or are the type of person to show that you're sad, don't think that you can't smile or laugh at things that are funny or things that 'touch your heart' one way or another. Let yourself smile. Let yourself laugh because then afterwards you'll be happy that something or someone made you smile that day.



SO TO KEEP THE CHEESINESS TO THE MINIMUM, I'm gonna end of this post :)
I know its an abrupt ending but whatevs haha. LOVE YA!

New things:) || CyberTalk

Hello ^^ So it's been a while since I last posted so here are some things going on in my life :)
   
  One thing that I am really excited about is this event called 'The Colour Run'. It's a 5km un-timed 'marathon' and for every km, there will be different coloured powders thrown at us. I have been trying to be more active nowadays and I'm also trying new things(more down below). I don't think I will be able to run/jog for the entire 5km. I probably would walk sometimes haha. Typical CLL. I think it will be a lot of fun and it definitely will be something new.
  Speaking of trying new things, I have discussed with my friends that we would be going to USS (Universal Studios Singapore) sometime during the holidays. Probably around November or December. It might sound ridiculous but I actually really want to try out the huge roller coasters. I have major motion-sickness and roller coasters scare me a lot haha. But as long as I don't puke after the ride, I'm fine. And even if I do puke... idk... haha. 

  The reason why I started this 'YOLO' mindset is because I want to treasure my teen/young adult years. I really don't want to one day look back and regret not doing anything adventurous or worth-while. I think that it is really important that we make use of the time we have on Earth especially when we are young and abled. I also read a quote the other day: 'Your life only begins when you step out of your comfort zone.' For example, if I forever want to stay in this bubble/zone my entire life, I'll eventually get bored and tired and sick of the same air that I breathe everyday. I'll start to 'die' inside that bubble and it's equivalent to being a walking zombie. This other quote also set me thinking "Most people die at 25. But only get buried at 80.' What's the point of living life when really, all you ever do is stand behind that line for the rest of your life. When you only drink tea but who knows, you might actually love coffee more. When you stick with pink but you actually look so much better in green(random I know haha). We understand ourselves better when we try new things. We learn to adapt to the new things sometimes. And maybe soon enough, those things will seem so comfortable and easy for you that those things that you one day had been too afraid to do, are now in your comfort zone. Who knows? If you try everything in the world, maybe you will have no such thing as a 'comfort zone' anymore. Because you will be infinite.


So this is a really short blog post but with a really important message for myself and for the world.

Basically, if I had to sum the entire last paragraph in a word, it would be 'YOLO!' hahahah! I will try to post another blog post tomorrow about 50 facts abut myself but no promises haha
Okay :) Thanks so much for taking time to read this. LOVE YA!

Random thoughts || CyberTalk

Hello!
What's up?
HAHA im weird. Anyways, how ya doin? I swear I just had to type 'doin' 5 times because my computer kept changing it to 'coin'. haha. But I just wanted to put up another blog post because I don't want to slowly forget about it. Also because my friends read me on here so.. hi guys ^^

Well, school has been getting more and more stressful. Exams are coming up and the homework and everything is getting harder each day. Today(surprisingly), I actually listened during English and Chemistry class :0 SHOCKER!! haha they were the main 2 classes today because most of Chinese class was taking pics with a temp. CL teacher(who was so nice!). Math, my teacher decided to give some inspirational talks and everything so we literally did nothing there haha. But yea, I always feel really good when I DO listen and learn something in class.

Anyways, I feel like I keep talking about school in every post so.. here are just some random thoughts that come into my mind. I realllyyyy have something against ants. The other day, I was re-heating my sausage when I came home from school. Only after it was heated, I opened the oven and found so many dead and cooked ants in there. Ants like sausage apparently. ew. I really wanted my sausage. Thats about my sausage. NOWADAYS I HAVE BEEN REALLY LOOKING FORWARD TO P.E.! I think its because we are on the football module and I really like having football games, though they do hurt sometimes. OMG I JUST RE-READ THE PAST 3 SENTENCES AND REALISED HOW WRONG 'thats about my sausage' SOUNDS! am I the only one? Haha. The other day, I was stringing my guitar(I bought a new string to replace my broken one) and it was my first time... so I think it was too tight and it snapped! THE NEW STRING SNAPPED! and then it just had to graze my arm when it snapped. I had like a scar or mark. Its still here just not as bad as 10 seconds after the incident haha.

Thats the end of my random thoughts. here are some random pics ^^




Haha kay! Thats all for today! LOVE YA!

Back to School, Not Feeling Cool || CyberTalk

    Heyyy~~~ haha I'm back! Haven't been on here for a little over a month now so I decided to update my fellow friends on here on what I have been up to. So, as you probably have seen from the title, the June holidays ended and Im back to school(Urgh). Haha. 
     So far in the month of July, I haven't done anything really interesting. I actually just had my Final Year Listening Comprehension exam yesterday. Uhm hello? Its just the middle of the year.. haha yea my rants all over again. But so far, I have been reeaaallyy tired and just have been slacking (and sleeping) in class. I got home from tuition at around 10.20 pm last night and went straight to bed. I didn't even change. Thats how tired I was. I woke up in the middle of the night to change coz I felt real gross. I thought it was idk around 1 am? I found out that I slept through the whole night and it was 6am. LOL. 
    I have been really engrossed in a book my friend loaned me. Its called 'The Lovely Bones" and I hadn't heard of it before. But it was actually really popular. I only wanted to lend it from my friend when she was telling me about it the other day. Now, Im totally lost in the world of a girl murdered by a quiet and mysterious neighbour. I feel that I will soon be in a legit 'reading' phase. I mean its not that I didn't read a lot of books before. Just that I didn't really find books that interests me so much. But right now, I have a whole list of books that was recommended by my friends and also during my English enrichment course. Should I write reviews on the books that I read? Maybe I should. I'll tell you guys more about my favourite books in the next few posts.
   
   
   So all the stuff you have read so far is actually just rants that just come to my head when I write so don't mind me. I actually have 2 things on my agenda that I really wanted to write in my blog today- My health & fitness and My Exams -.- (yup get ready for another rant)
   To save the rant for last, I'll talk about 'my health & fitness' first. I know it sounds kind of weird(an understatement haha) that I'm worrying about things like that at 13 but I think that I should start early with the whole eating healthy thing. I eat wayy too much on a regular basis. I used to eat 5 BIG meals per day when im actually suppose to eat half the amount a day- 5 SMALL meals. So, I went ahead and divided each of my big meals into half. I bring my recess to school now. Everyday, I bring a sandwich to school. It will usually be with ham or peanut butter or kaya. Things like that. I used to drink at most 2 cups of water a day. Sometimes even no water at all. Now that I think about it, its pretty gross. I used to drink anything other than water- milk, soda, juice etc. But I have changed that and I am drinking wayy more water. I don't drink much soda anymore and I try to keep chips, fries, candy, chocolate and other junk food to a bare minimum(although its hard when the teacher gives us chocolates in class). As for my 'fitness', I try to go running/jogging with my friends and sometimes just go to the gym by myself. I do some dances in my bedroom and also do cardio workouts(BLOGILATES!). I would walk around the school and stuff. I do hope to walk home more. Theres a option for me to get off the bus at the main road bus stop where I have to walk quite a distance to my house OR I can take a bus and get off at a bus stop much nearer. I always want to walk the longer distance but after school, I just get really tired and I lose all my motivation. I guess thats something I will have to work on. I think I will be less stressed out after i am done with all the courses and extra classes I have. After next week, my english course will end and that means from then on, my thursdays will be free(YAY!) Tuesdays, wednesdays & fridays I still have CCA's and tuition which will stay like that until the end of the year(or the next 4 years of my life). All the way back to time management -.-

    Okay. So now on to 'THE EXAMS' dun dun dun dun..... Guess what? My exams are coming up -AGAIN- like WHAT?! It will be in August(great timing for my birthday-.- note the sarcasm) and I really have to step up my game. I haven't been paying attention in class AND I haven't been revising. My results in term 2 was not bad. I got quite a few A's in there. I really don't want to disappoint myself with a drop of results. I want to maintain the results and improve on the weak subjects. gahh... so scared. There is a lot of high expectations set for me. From my teachers, friends and family. which just makes me twice as stressed. From today onwards, I'll probably be studying real hard. Just need to find that motivation. SO yea. Thats all I really wanna say about that. I gotta go eat and then study haha!

  Sorry for the major long post of boring words. I LOVE YOU GUYS!
