Twisted FOC'13

How have you been doing? :)

Sunday tales is taking sometime to churn out it's piece of story this week.
Lets start from the minor details last week before moving into the main story for the day :)

I finally caught monster university after what seemed like forever. Maybe i have a soft spot for cartoon movies. Because some find this movie a so-so but i enjoyed this one. At least more than despicable me. Maybe i haven't watched the previous 2 movies therefore i'm satisfied with this movie. But i enjoyed the theme because it was revolving about school life and i can relate how Mike feels when he really works really hard for all his life to become someone he couldn't be yet some didn't even have to try to the one. On the side note, i love the Monster University font xD why can't our school jerseys adopt such pretty font too :)

And this is my goal for the week :)

wakaka it's my 3rd book already for the month and still doing well.

I hope skipping the first one isn't gonna affect my liking for the second one because it's really impossible to get it from the library when the movie is gonna be out in a month's time. Hope its as good as what my cousin's said to me. Teehee.

when i opened my mail and i saw this.

Can't help but my lips cracked into a smile :)

i know it doesn't happen much these days already, because i'm already suppressing the urge to return to it and sometimes i don't have the time too.

But yeah one more time is always a lie, because i have tons of receipts from DP that i still keep till now.

Especially relatable to the second quote whereby, i always can't make it for appt with friends because i have a dance pract that i can't miss. lol 3x a week and pred is always complaining how busy i am.

At the third one LOL whenever blocking happens, im always the SUAY one who gets to do the opposite and awkward side SIGHS.

But lol never complaining cause i always love it whenever i'm dancing. :)

Still waiting for the day to come, to proudly announce that i'm a dancer.

Whoo is that possible? xD

Anyways, these are some really pretty photos that fans have made for the drama Queen & I.

i'm embarking on my 2nd last episode already. 16 episode is really fast. :)

Actually i bought the drama to watch their chemistry lol not really the storyline

because after catching rooftop prince no other time travelling story can beat that already!

but the chemistry between yoo in na and ji hyun woo really gives goosebumps.

it really feels like they want to be together even on the drama set.
The story wasn't the main point but their love story was.

Whatever it is i really like it when love story have happy ending like this.

Lol but how often does it last. But they look really good together, i hope they will :D

Anyways, the OST is really good :D A lot of feel whenever i watch the drama. No matter how many times i hear it, i still go WAAAA whenever the song plays and their eyes meet :DDD

Just when i was thinking. 

OH NO NO ONE has uploaded the CAMP PHOTOS YET :O

i turned on fb & i see my lovely OGLs uploading them one by one AWW :D

How can we have such wonderful telepathy even. 

ZEN & i :) Most Zen & responsible ogl ever 

As usual, my comfort during camp :)

Hehe to the girl who had a tough time during camp. Should have done something for her

yay, my pretty cousin who was so sporting during the camp (: when she said she had fun, its all i need to hear.

with pretty val & sticky me at sentosa ! love my main comm tee

One more hugging shot. Last day of camp lol post camp syndrome

Hj my wonderful mate who is so bright and talented, ever supportive sy & est who is cool as ever :)

Okay there is so much to say where do i even start from ?

here it goes. I didn't even know how it all started from. I only remembered attending an interview to become OGL head without knowing what i'm heading for and only knowing that i had a great time in JC being an OGL but clueless about the role of an OGL head. What makes it worst was that, when the main comm was form, seriously i didn't even know them well. i mean yeah we have seen each other exchange words more than hi & byes, even been an OG together but never worked together before. And most of them were in the same tutorial group but not me. I was all alone from platoon 2 :<

Well well, so frankly, i wasn't very committed at first and since i didn't have task on my hand, i neglected the meetings and all. I only remembered helping out for fundraising for the camp. And that's it. only until the holidays arrived and my work attachment ended, i started panicking a little because i had to vet through 80 pages and 120pages of OGL handbook and Camp manual respectively. Before i can pass message down to my OGLS.I swear i think i memorise the programmes back to back and u can even pick any and ask me to recite them. LOL. carried out a dry run with less than half of the OGLs there as there was OCIP involvement and some Personal holiday time. Well well, didn't try out at the actual area and didnt teach the mass dance to the OGLs. But of course i did work before the camp started. Had to send important info to my OGLS, repeatedly update them the camp manual and informed them the changes that nobody reads HAHA. lol Splitting the 100 OGMs into groups and the OGLS too. Knowing which OGL are sub comm members so that they can help their respective comm in times of emergency, Knowing my OGM allergies or Absence of leave if necessary. There is just so many things to know. lol but we had a after action review and yes the planning was not thorough enough, the dry run should have been like an actual camp, the OGLS should have been better prepared, the atmosphere could have been more high. Yesh and due to our negligence we suffered at night during the camp. I slept for only 2hs for consective 2 days, i woke up with voice as hoarse as a man and my lips felt like it was bursting because it was so swollen due to the presence of 3 fucking big ulcers. I had to scream, be high and higher than anyone else to keep the camp going. I had to run around and make calls to make sure everyone is on the ball and the camp programmes will not be delayed. we had to give briefing till 3 in the morning because of last minute changes to programme timing and the lack of knowledge of the OGLs/ SM. We had bad times and pissed and angry moments & even embarrassing ones when one of our games failed so terribly and we had to change a MASS GAMES. we did it not once twice but many many times. We even prepared our night walk on the day itself- sourcing for DVD, finding the activities to be carried out, praying that OGLS know how to walk the correct route. Fail much. The finale night too, was last minute prepared. the Deco, the songs, the pinata, the cold war and disagreements. Well many things happened during that camp. If it hadn't we wouldnt have been able to become closer. I watch a friend of mine in admiration when she turned every moment of adversity into opportunity. She just said that we have to think fast enough. LOL i really didn't know how she did it. She knows how to hype the crowd, she knows how to speak in front of them. She just said that she is not such a person too, but she had to adapt to the environment and know what situation she is in. Well well, thats how fast she adapt. I learn so much from her :) i even grew from this. I mean like HEY i never ever taught a chereo in front of the crowd before. And yeap that night i taught 1/2 chereo which i believe was only 30seconds but i did it :D. under such stressful situations with so much responsibility at hands, i thought i was going to snap any time during the camp and lose my patience.

I think i almost lose it during one of the nights but i knew it wouldnt get us anywhere so i stopped being angry for the sake of being angry cause everyone is also angst too for the unsmooth journey. even though all this sounds like i had a terrible camp, i must say that we concealed it well. because we were the only ones suffering i'm glad the OGMS had all the good time because they deserved it. In the first place, if we had prepared well and stuck together to come up with a solution or daringly air our views about certain matters, it wouldn't have ended up this way. lol all in all, im very thankful that my fellow ogls are still a very responsible bunch and most importantly, they care for the freshies all the time without having me to remind them to do so. (: Also the main comm have been very very generous in lending their help whenever necessary and of course including me whenever possible. yesh i do feel alone at times during the camp because i do not have an og & no one to take photos with but at least i have my main comm and my forever welcoming sy & peapod :) hehe its even better to have friends there :D can't wait t become their coursemates in time to come :D i'm glad that i have the opportunity to not only bond with some freshies but more of my batch mates :)) Now i feel like HEY actually they are really not bad too although i hold doubts about them initially and i don't know know why i'm biased. sighs haha but its better now :)) becoming more outspoken and outgoing and opening up. NO more awkward conversations. (still have sometimes but feeling better) And its all worth it when at the end, people come up to tell me hey the camp was real fun :D or when your ogls text u to tell u how well u did (: it really made my day and gave me goosebumps when i read messages like this. They can bring me to tears u know. it makes me more motivated to take up events and planning in the future :D really fun omg . BUT YESH IT was hell tiring i felt like i put an entire sem's effort into this. Im so glad it turned out just fine :D 

Teehee, many epic and beautiful moments during the camp :D

Many first times, many heart felt conversations, many bickering with the girls, much fun and many photos taken (: many touching moments esp when they danced our chereo perfectly and did it way better than me last year.

It feels really great when u work really hard for something and the results in return is something really bigger than what you could ever imagine or contain. It makes me want to do more of this in the future, to experience more wonderful feelings like this in the future :)

Whatever it is, working hard, loving what i do and being happy & so i'm feeling really pretty = GOOD :D

Sorry for the 1000 words essay lol it was definitely unintended,

i couldn't contain my feelings anymore and it felt like it was going to overflow.

Finally, more time for the family :) 

i really miss my family & my house after being in school for 5 days. 

Lol, i don't think i can survive in hostel or overseas man lololol

Well well, gonna work out a full proof overseas plan next year

This times, theres nothing to stop me from discovering the world :D

Can't wait.

In the mean time, Conventus, the Big groove, first vetting, Matric fair will be happening next week :D

Maybe more meet ups with some individuals whom i have missed for so long ! (:

perhaps a short getaway? 

Hehe i really need energiser for now !

The Hunger Games

DTF with beauty :D on a lazy thurs

Post lunch desert at fruit paradise SEE MY HAPPY FACE. forever happy with food around

Because face too fat when i smile >^^<

I realised they havent been on my blog before ! :D Introducing the lady dhoppers :D wakaka lunch at bbq chicken after free WWW day :) we were staring at the mv > our food. but the lunch was cheap cheap & good too :D

Of course DTF with other 2 veggies ! haha our dishes were hilarious. It was split betweeen the Vegan and the meat eaters. Me & ying ate a lot too much !

Love love them :D Sometimes i feel like they sound a lot like me,  allowed to see my crazy self more than other see, allowed to make mistakes and do silly stuff too. too much laughter around them :D

The camwhore queen on the top left teaching us how to camwhore. WAKAKAKA. so cute right my UNNIE Minjee

A wonderful summary of what me & beauty shared. Felt so guilty to her la cause of my incredulous eating speed i think i ate more than half of my share D: But the duck rolls is damn WHOOLAA nice :D dont be fooled by the picture lol.

Omo one of my favourite meals of the week with datrololol :D Almost full house except for mt ;) well well look at the spread people may be thinking that we are holding a CNY reunion party here. LOL anyways i had a hard time through the dinner cause they kept making me laugh about POZ hair & i felt like i was going to be choked by the food anytime soon. I think we were too focused on the food that night, not much time left for sharing :D

Oh yeah, my most satisfied and eye opening meal throughout the week
Indian Cuisine! i really never knew how to appreciate because of their strong spices and spicy curry
But this trip proved me wrong. it was so tasty i couldnt stop eating. Although there is a lot of dough going on but i learnt the name of various dough like naan tosai blah blah blah
even their drinks tasted different and good :D
So im up for indian food next time
Whats the best part is this is a VEGGIE restaurant :D
Enjoy without feeling guilty. Awesome max xD

Thx wonderful ahdeelah for recommending the place :D SEE HOW MUCH WE ATE ><

Happy us cause Crys was giving us her presents from Germany ;D & i was the least favored ;< wakakakaka

The act cool Xing who never cooperates in photos lol shes gonna kill me if she ever SEES this.

In case u are looking for the place, thats the majestic entrance :D whee located at clarke quay area.
When i heard that u dont have to pay for the food because it was set up by a charitable organisation,  instead you pay the amount u think they deserve, i was very fond of the place. Im more than willingly to pay more than what i think it is worth :D 

The above photo was taken after A levels after we took the bungee jump ride at clarke quay,
the second photo was taken after dinner and 2 years later :D whee Looks the same somehow :D  But i feel that we have gotten closer than before :D i like how we still hold onto each other even when JC ends and uni starts. i like how they always awes me with things i dont know. I like how they remind me that the world is so huge and im living in only a part of it. I love how we like to roam along the streets of they city as we watch the beautiful skyline of Singapore at night. I love how we still play JC orientation games or sing cheers randomly sometimes. truthfully, never knew it would turn out this way with this bunch.

Thats our ANAL face this week lol but we had a good week :D A short staycation lol. well  :) Had to get up early for WWW that explains the uneven size of the left and right eye and our cranky expressions. So glad u appeared in this world & i get to meet u. Sometimes i feel that u are like the male version of me (more exaggerated in all ways be it temper, confidence, fashion, spending money). But i would disagree on the hygiene, narcissist part. 

My take during lunch. Always taking the healthier dishes, my kind of food.

Cute photo of my fruit paradise tarts. Whoo how i love deserts but maybe they can have an upsize option so that i wont develop cravings that badly :D

yeap Just started on this after tenth circle ended ! :D Gambateh Going on a crazy goal. 1 book a week and i  hope i can finish 7 books before the due date.

Everybody's crazy about u ! & yesh really so cute. Bought one of  u online but the demand was crazy and my order is still on request POUTS D; hope u come soon so i can let Mr G have it.

To motivate me to do the ex that my bf teach me so that i can grow some abs.
Seriously, im too lazy for that !!!! OMO
yet i cannot stand my thighs flabbing away :(

Okay, a week flew past once more

In conclusion: I love Holidays. I love how i can wake up at any time of the day, I love how i can fix 3 different kind of dates in a day, I love to just be watching my korean drama and switching to my drama just because i feel like to. I love doing housework because i get hungry after that and i start digging for food to eat.

But there are downsides of holidays too :( I get lazier each day to move myself to do exercise, go for dance or a workout session. I sleep more than usual. And my intake is way more than you would ever imagine. I check my facebook and instagram too many times a day. I whatsapp till i reach my limit too quickly. My single eyelid lazy eyes appears.

I hope camp goes smoothly. Its first time i'm planning one. :)

gee Excited :D:D:D:D

The tenth circle

So recently, i have been caught up with BOOKS.

yeah i know it has always been either dance, eating, dramas or nursing related stuff.

But i just ended Between the lines and now i'm into The tenth circle which i managed to grab in clementi library :) .

lol I know i'm seriously a hard core fan of jodi picoult since my sister's keeper till now!

The trip to the library was fruitful today because i found dean kootz's frankestein series like finally after years. :))

City of bones & And the mountains echoed & The storyteller is still on my wish list.

the storyteller would have to wait. 

Gonna become a bookworm soon. OMO. haha 

The movie is coming out soon :D

Performance :') Won't forget the sessions of pract we had together. Wasn't really close initially but practices do bring tired people closer together haha With them i'm always laughing and i really dont wanna go home at night :x hahha we may be of different age and courses but we talk about anything under the sun and the randomness makes socialising easier.

Lovely Dhoppers. Will miss supper sessions after practices. Seriously i dont know how long more these can go one before my mum grounds me from dance totally. :/ See how it goes. Cried over it so many times and i'm so tired of it already. So desperate times call for desperate measures. Will i sin if i lie to chase my dream. :'(

Lunch today at sakae ! HAHA the chawanmushi preparation is so cute :')
The salmon is really yum yum.
upgrade your plain rice to garlic rice cause its worth it and not too salty or easily tired of.
The teriyaki sauce is sweet and just nice so it makes the chicken taste real good.
Finally a decent meal :)

My chingu :'( left for short exchange. Miss her so ! Come back soon!!
The one who tells me stuff before i even have to ask her to do so.
The one whom is always met with problems yet i cannot do much to help her solve them.
The one whom always have positive things to say about me even though sometimes i don't even think im as good as what she mention.

YES FINALLY after years? GOOD FOOD. GOOD COMPANY. GOOD DRIVE AT 1AM.
lol this supper came about after dinner from last week.
Since vien is only here for 2 weeks why not make it worth.
Its bad to say but if she was always in Sing perhaps we wouldn't even have such sessions.
So glad we have an existing convo in whatsapp so that means there is a possibility for future meet ups right
Now we are so old that we don't need parents to bring us out for supper.
We drive ourselves there using GPS.
We order whatever we want to eat, the quantity of each dish
We pay for our own meals and split the bills
This makes me feel like i'm stepping into the adult world with them already.

Haha we took the self shots by balancing the phone on the car. Took many shots before it was successful.  Wishing for the next reunion already :D Btw seafood is so good at newton circus funny how all the uncles lunged at us to get us to order from them. we must have look like NOOBS :D

After his bookout & i told him that he looks like a old man here HAHA

With the predators because YOLO girl is back :)
 Strive to be more knowledgeable about the world like her  :)
And then when im old enough, its my turn to explore the world :D
And Xing was driving ! :D soon enough i think she can drive us wherever we want to go next time
Perks of having friends who drives ! haha I think its my turn to learn soon!
Good food at east coast lagoon but the pigeons ah LAST WARNING.

YAY he taught me the app that would make photo look squarish.
For an avid instagrammer like me, it means hell lot :D
Anyways, i have to say it really isn't an easy time when he cannot accompany me  for this period of time.
HAHA i told him that he felt foreign n he felt so too.
And thats because just two weeks of his absence is enough to make me independent enough to live on without him.
So when he returns n he expects me to be the one dependent and always reliant on him, i couldn't do so.
but spending time together during weekends does make a difference.
From small actions like how he offers to do things for me, pay for a meal , buy something that would be of good use, random bickering or even sweet nothings does reminds me of the times before.
LOL this shows how forgetful i am man tsk tsk.
It will get better from here ! Gambateh :D

Anyways, caught a phrase that i cant help but agree. "Hope is a pathological part of puberty"



Okay back to my book. Please tell me i'm not living a routined week.

Loving every second, minute, hour, bigger better stronger power

Hello guys (:
Successfully transformed into a nocturnal animal every holiday !
So here goes the update !
Shall keep it short and sweet ~

24/6:
Ah thats the day we have to hand in our attachment notes!
Weehee marks the end of work, its really less tiring to do any other thing when you are not working and its like DUH.
And yesh platoon 2 headed to teoheng for a celebratory session.
There were 9 of us WE WERE SCREAMING THE HOUSE DOWN.
Lol and i'm serious. You have to see how we sang Avril's Happy ending you would think that we look like some deprived teenagers or mad dogs.
But everyone enjoyed the session thoroughly lol and in the end we paid only 2 bucks each?!
and yes i can foresee we will go back there in the future :)
Singing is such a wonderful way to unleash and put yourself into emotions which u never get to experience :D
well well, and i remember that it was a scorching monday but we still had steam boat at val's house.
I really love such homely visits and gathering.
It feels like family and reminds me of datrololol :)
HAHA but i do feel old lol since kids these days are more into drinking and partying.
Played taboo too whoo i really suck at games whereby you have to find words to describe a certain word. Always tongue tied But these games are still useful in hyping the atmosphere :')

25/6:
Settling camp stuff at home
Going for combat lesson !

26/6:
had our OGL briefing and mini dry run :)
Hmm i have to say it turn out better than i expected.

So glad to see familiar faces again :DDD

27/6:
WOO met des for lunch at THW ! :)
Wa siao eh queued for an hour and i was so closed to having gastric.
I enjoyed the dimsum but not him.
Lol its funny after all these years we still manage to meet and talk and even hang out.
I don't see similarities in us at all, so for all these together what is exactly holding us together sometimes i wonder HAHA.
Anyways learnt something important from him that i keep reminding myself these days: Know more and Learn more. NO HARM :) yeap n i realise how little i know gotta expand my GK !
haha for food reviews ERM. The pork bun is simply marvellous and a MUST MUST get.
The prawn dumpling is good normal normal. I liked the steam egg cake haha reminds me of those gao at night markets. Lol theres one tofu skin with prawn which is awesome !!! But the carrot cake is not my type probably i ain't use to the taste. Add a lot of prawn stuff so i dont really know much about the meat part haha MUST TRY :)

28/6:
Pract for cac camp performance ! :)
and oh my gosh was my dear's book out day.
I'm horrible cause made him wait till 10pm at clementi for me and he still sent me home.
BY THEN 12am already. So tired, smelly and angsty but still made sure i got home ;')
Missed his voice so i let him talk throughout the train ride, felt a bit foreign though HAHA.

29/6:
Supposed to go for G&J's pract BUT... mum was complaining and i woke up late :/
So decided to skip it or else next time cannot dance at all ;x
Made sure i made full use of it !!!
Did up my camp allocation of freshies
Visited the Indoor stadium cause dear and his friend was going to catch the concert LOL
couldn't resist so i bought the merchandise :x TEEHEE.

30/6:
Sold my ticket not proud mentioning but yeah so i missed Gd's performance this time
glad to hear from HT & dear that they thoroughly enjoyed it
And how it was more high than clubbing lol well can't wait for the 5 to return
I confirm wont miss it x)

Went for pract again for cac performance ! seriously can learn so much from a performance :)
THIS time i learnt how to wear a cap while dancing HAHA.

Went home, went for dinner with cousins :)
My dear vien returned to Spore :)
HEHE watched our 1-5yo video together, laughing at each other.
Seriously couldn't believe 20 years flew past like this.
Im just glad i grew up with this bunch of people ;) who made my childhood really exciting and fun.
Truthfully, i always felt cool when i hang out with them even till NOW lol.
They always have this aura around them that makes other envy & i'm always proud to mention them in front of others. Always viewing them as my sisters and brothers. Though our lives may not be perfect but from their lives, i have learnt many many things. We are so different but theres this unmistakable love we have for each other haha not sure about the others but at least it is for me xD

Thats about my week whoots.
Well more to come.
Can i say that i enjoy this period of my life most now.
No studies so not much stress
Learning a lot on how to plan camps and i never knew that there was so much to do !
Dancing every other day still eager to improve.
so yeah practically im smiling everyday though i have to travel west almost daily
But that isn't daunting me from doing the things i love that makes me as happy and exhausted simultaneously. Lol sometimes i dont know why i like to occupy myself with so many things to do like what RID say. But these are making me happy so im going keep doing it and do it well.
YESH but i made many sacrifices in the midst of these self improvements or self indulge sessions and sometimes i wonder if it's really worth it.

Belated Sunday post ~

Rooftop Prince

Have been a drama addict recently

or u may say its gives me excuse so that i have more time to type my post & provide a self update

Really exhausted now.

But if u havent catch it, its time worth investing :)

Dense story plot intrinsic, complicated, twist and turns, wonderful acting by micky which awes me till no end, beautiful female lead and cute 3 little brothers in the show.

Its been long since i genuinely compliment such a great drama !

promise to be back soon :)

Its been an interesting week and always have been !
