I'm down with 4 chapters of Macroeconomics

Another day spent attempting to be studious. I'm proud to say that my productivity has gone up by a couple of notches in the company of my 2 lovelettes who gave me glares to stop me from being distracted with the random-est things e.g. my hair (bad hair day), this little girl who's studying (her spirit amazes me), the air... if you get what I mean. Ahh, reminds me of the good old times of working over the same assignment together in class/school/old haunts of ours. This is especially relevant to Mila because we've been irregularly close to one another and we both (along with Hosanna) used to have study outings which, at the end of the day, often lose its main purpose.

Oh oh, one delightful thing that happened today was that Mila surprised Rachel and me with home-made bentos! Japanese curry rice yum yum! I loved the curry :D & the rice tasted really nice too since it's Japanese rice and as you know, the texture is just different. It's like more succulent due to it's fat and round nature compared to the other types of rice. Even though Mila claimed that it came out too hard/ powdery, I felt all loved inside - even though I didn't finish the bento *hides face* BUT YOU TELL ME, HAVE YOUR FRIEND EVER MADE YOU A BENTO? HAVE YOU? HAVE YOU? My friend did and I am truly touched that she actually went through the trouble of making it early in the morning! :D :D

One interesting thing that happened today was that... Rachel spilt hot coffee over herself and she was still high on air ever though it was scalding hot. Imagine the horror. I would have screamed my head off, especially if I were to be wearing such a cute, pure white lace-trimmed camisole! Like, my jaw will completely drop as I stare at the aftermath of the accident with my eyes popping out of the sockets... okay enough drama. Anyway, she had to continue walking around with her funkily dyed garments, carrying a nice aroma of coffee along with her. The funny thing is that the coffee actually managed to dye half of the shorts darker brown (she wore a pair of light brown shorts) so it looked quite acceptable.

C'est formidable que j'ai une amie à longtemps! Il y a beaucoup des choses et mémoires que je peux rapporter de temps à autre. Bien sûr, le même chose s'appliquer aux gens à qui on m'assortit étroitement. Et, Madamme Tay, merci pour des croissants délicieuse! Je pense sincèrement que c'est une charmante gâterie pour le soir. :)

A lot of things happened last week. In chronological order, my first niece's arrival to the world, lunch @ TNH with my green gay #2 (Grace!!) and Teng, my expensive haircut which only shows a fringe change (very short and highly temperamental) (all these on Wednesday, 14th) and Shaun's long awaited POP! I witnessed the touching moment of his graduation (his mom nearly teared up while putting his cap on for him) at the cost of getting a horrible and uneven tan. On. My. Face. Nevertheless, it was worth it and I thoroughly enjoyed being in the company of his mom and his grandfather. He's such a cute gentleman! Hehe, what are the odds of seeing your boyfriend graduating from BMT? Each recruit is only allowed 2 guests. :D

If I'm not wrong, her name is Charis Nadia. Skinny baby, weighing at only 2.185kg!

After the haircut, we decided to walk from PS to City Hall because SMU is in between the 2 locations. We came across Ah Teng's Bakery which we all found pretty amusing. I wonder if she still pops this blog now and then. :)

Here's Shaun's granddaddy with his daughter (obviously Shaun's mom, just in case my attempt in being fanciful turns out to be an embarrassing failure)

HOW CUTE IS THIS PICTURE! :D

Just a picture to feed the curious cats out there. Anyway, over to my beloved, he lost too much weight in the span of 9 weeks!! D:

I suppose this picture won't hurt. :P

Ok hang on, one last revelation before I close. I'm starting to find Timbaland attractive... no no no don't get me wrong. Not in that sense. ;)

Study day in Starbucks part 1?

Why is it so warm?! Pfft. The part of my laptop where my wrists rest on as I type this is so warm. Oh my goodness. OOOOOOOOOOH, the wind just came in. Ahh~ so nice. Random. -_-

So! Today was supposed to be the Warwick University Open Day. It did went on though, but Serene and I didn't appear for it. Haha, she did fall asleep in front of her laptop last night which means our discussion ended there(nowhere). We told the University that we're not going to appear because of transport and curfew reasons though. Well, just in case. Better than not telling right?

Nevertheless, Serene came over to London today. Remember in the last post I mentioned that she has to meet her friend for dinner? Yep. We decided to study at Starbucks in order to kill time. It wasn't that productive though because we reached the place only at around 5pm? That was because we met up too late. & to think that I woke up at 1.40PM when I told her I'll reach Victoria at 2.15PM(she doesn't know about this actually, hehe). Anyway, I was late. Soweeeee Serene!

After that we did a little bit of shopping. I bought my shoeeeeeeeee wheeeeeeeeeee! &&&, MY ASOS BAG ARRIVED TODAY MORNING ZOMGZZZ! YES, IT WAS THAT BAG WHICH WAS SOLD OUT! WHOOOHOOO. So efficient, I like~ :D

Okay this is the story. Last week, I was over at asos.com doing random searches for bags(among other things) and I SAW THAT BAG(which was sold out the previous time). EXCLAMATION MARKS!! I quickly reserved it and called Serene so that I could borrow her debit card to make payment. BUT SHE WAS ASLEEP ZOMGZ. & the reservation lasts for only 2 hours. && IT WAS THE LAST PIECE. So yes, imagine my anxiety/panic/whateverwordthatcoulddescribehowIfelt! I decided to approach my sister reluctantly because it will need quite some persuading for her to lend me her debit card. It took me an hour plus okay. But, the effort was paid off because she gave in. So yes, YEY!! :D

Enough said. I shall post the few pictures we took today!

Texting mothers' day message to my mom. Thank goodness Serene "reminded" me.


She settled down faster than me. Very efficient.


Geek power. (see, still haven't open textbook)



Random(& fellow) muggers.


The new trigonometry stuff is confusing. I only did 3 questions(out of 13) throughout the 2 hours while we were there.


We have the same phone, by coincidence! Haha, a lot of school people asked us why we got the same phone. & our dressing always clash in one way or another. There's something between us mannnnn~


The next Bill Gates/Einstein/Mahatma Ghandi.


Toilet break which turned out to be end of study session(for Serene).


Useful bag rest. (& yea, that's my school planner and also, as you can see, the Warwick thing was marked on it)


Lazy to paint the rest. Hehe~


I slugged until 7PM okaaaaay! (& yes, that's how bright it is at 7PM!)


In Zara. Serene's having fun with the hot heels. Val baby(Valerie the small thingg) will definitely love the height of them!


Catwalk? No la, haha!


Hello, I fell asleep while standing again.


Finally woke up.

We are attempting for another study day tomorrow, but I only have shopping in my mind. Argh, what's with meeeee?! Pfft. I need a push~

Oh, & YES I HAVE ANOTHER PICTURE OF THE RANDOM DUDE(hahaha, yes aka SUPERMODEL). A nicer one, in fact. That's why I am not posting it up. Hmm, should I? ;)
