2K15

A brand new year, and I am still sleeping too much.
I guess that would be my first goal in 2015, to sleep an appropriate amount of time, not to little, not too much.. pfft.. Wish me luck! 

I guess everybody have got the feeling of a closure when 2015 comes to an end, but I am not really feeling it right now because finals are just around the corner and everything is just cramming up! So much to do and so much that I do not want to do! :( 

I guess for me, a closure will come after finals, after I am really done with Semester 1 :-)
In addition, year ones only get 1 week break after our finals which is rather crappy, I do not understand. So here I am trying to study into 2015 and hoping to bury myself in my textbooks until public law paper ends. I really dislike this, I cannot enjoy my holidays, it does not feel like holidays, it does not feel like christmas, and its not like new year! Ugh, but I am really glad I have my friends to be with me! *Evil laughters* Everybody is just so worried about ELS essay and exams! Where got time?! (And I am obviously running away from doing my essay right now hahah, I promise I will get back to it soon enough!) 

Time to grow up, this is what I have been telling myself, and hopefully I will become an adult soon. Definitely understand that responsibility, diligence and courage will not come to me just like that. I guess I will have to change for the better, be a better me, a more improved shiman this coming year. As the saying goes "If you do what you always did, you will get what you always got" - a promise to myself, I have to make my parents proud and work harder! 

Lastly, just want to show off rice cooker steamboat made by crownies without Fiona though~ Fiona, we can have steamboat again for chinese new year when you are back! (:



PS: Good things come to people who wait, but better things come to those who go out and get them.

Home

One never reaches home, but wherever friendly paths intersect the whole world looks like home for a time. - Hermann Hesse

So, after months of having no time (or maybe no mood) to blog, I am back again and it is only because I am procrastinating on my school work. hashtag bamf.

& whoops, I am in studying in the UK already!! Amazeballs, I could still rmb the naive year 1 me asking my mother if i could study overseas.. and baam, here I am, in UK now, enrolled in a university and trying to make it through the first semester. 

UK is a beautiful place to travel and look see but it is definitely not a place for me to spend money.. Eating a little too much, shopping really too much :( As usual, I am labelled blur sotong after a few weeks in the UK, but thankfully, I have good friends that always take care of me and give me a helping hand whenever I need them.. Really really thankful for them <3 With these friendly people, I feel that I can make it through the 3 years ahead peacefully and safely hehe ^^ 

What I really hate about this place is probably the cold. 冷死我啊!For someone who loves her sunny and humid Singapore so much, this place is really too cold. Wrapping myself in many layers and having to wear hoodies and long track pants even in the room! I am someone who cover myself in double duvet without air con to go to sleep in Singapore, with the weather here, I am almost always frowning :( & damn, I really laugh a lot lesser when I am in the UK... Mostly because of the lousy weather! 

Ok maybe I shouldn't blame the weather too much, because maybe part of me is just really homesick. But for now, all is good, homesickness is still bearable. Everything is okay :-) So I shall just upload a splash of photos below :-) 


First rainbow of my life @ Cheshire Oaks :) 

I miss you guys hen duo hen duo :')

Our weekly cheat meal :)
(Which means we have good food outside instead of making our own meals)

Karen, G, Nixin and Chris snack box all the way from SG :) 
I miss you girls too <3

Manchester for X'mas market :) Coming back here reminds me of 
TP trip and my poly mates :') To the guys, faster finish NS! The 
girls are waiting for you guys!! 

Mooting, a nerve wrecking tough job. Quarter finals in 2 weeks time, hopefully I will be more well prepared and have more confidence in myself. My partner, Uncle Bok, have been helping me a lot and giving me lots of encouragements. I cannot ask for a better partner. Thank you BC! :) I will work harder than ever for the upcoming moots!!!! 

PS: No matter how okay I am here, I still want this year to pass faster so that I can go back to my sunny island and eat my hokkien mee, char kuay teow and carrot cake. Oh, and also run around in my shorts and slippers!! About 6 more months to go till summer break!!
