Chapter 16

   
IMG_6375ed
Staring out of the window and wondering how will things turn out to be.

Soon, I will be entering into another new chapter in my life. New year, new things. The year 2013 has been a great year to me. Like most of the people said, form 4 is just another honeymoon year, it's going to be relaxing and easy. To me, it wasn't that relaxing and easy, instead, it was quite a hectic and stressful year for me. I had to cope with different types of stress and situations. But the good thing about this year is, I was able to involve in different types of activities and gained new experiences. I had learnt a lot a lot of things this year. I have learnt to be grateful with what I have in life, to be more tolerant, to be a lot more optimistic and to appreciate the good times that I have had with my friends and family.

Being the big/eldest sister in the family is quite a difficult task. Well, it doesn't seem hard but you know, we, as the eldest sibling in the family are forced to bear with all the nonsense that has happened in the family. If you're the younger/youngest son or daughter in the family, you might not realise this. What do I love most in the family? Of course, spending quality time with the family members, that's what I love. Laughing at each others' jokes, sharing each and every of our problems together and enjoying good food together as a family. Ahhh, good times.

Flashback to my high school days. #throwback. LOL. Nowadays people love to use hashtags like that huh. Hmm, I can still remember, on the first day of school, I was shocked that Javier is going to be in the same class with me. I was both stunned and shocked but feeling glad at the same time. Too bad my bestie, Qing wasn't in the same class with me but I'm glad that I always got to spend some time with her. We get to see each other almost every single day, literallly. I am glad to have Huey Syuen as my sitting partner, we had great times together. And there comes Chun Min, Ji Ji and Slocahnah. Our good helpers! Then as usual, I carried out my duties as a prefect throughout the year. The perks of being a prefect is that I get to learn how to be patient, how to deal with students and to be more responsible towards matters. I can still remember that I used to hate prefects when I was still in primary because I found that they are quite annoying at times, hahaha. And I don't understand why would I have made the decision of being a prefect in my secondary school days. At the same time, I both love and hate my school days.

Peace talk.

As for my daily life, I'm just repeating the same routine every single day. Home is a place for me to have my meals, shower, sleep, surf the net and etc. Nothing special to be mentioned about.

I think too much at times. That's one of the facts about me. I think about useless stuffs and at the end, it's just like I'm torturing myself with poison. Overthinking is useless. I have to get rid of that stupid habit. Another bad thing about being a girl is that, you'll get too obsessed with buying all sorts of clothes and ended up not wearing them because you find out that something else suits you even better. That's me, I rarely dress up as pretty as those teenage girls. I suck at fashion. I'm too lazy to dress up nicely. On ordinary days, I would just wear a tshirt or maybe sweaters with a pair of jeans and my pair of reebok shoes. That's just the way I am, looking lazy and unattractive but they're the most comfortable things that I could ever wear. :)

My December holidays

   
How have you guys been? I've been great!... well not really that great but fabulous, hahahaha, sitting right here, in front of the laptop and typing. Time really flies *repeating this line for the umpteenth time* No, but I mean like, erm, seriously.

HELLO! :D

I thought that my December holidays would be filled with lots and lots of fun and productive activities. I expected myself to read a hell lot of books and guess what? Silly me. I didn't even read any storybooks or novels you can say because I'm just darn lazy. Honestly, I did some reading on the internet and also I read a few things about the weather on earth from the encyclopedia. I spent most of my time sleeping. Yeap, beauty sleep. Anyway I'm just joking, I didn't get any beauty sleep at all, I even gained dark eye circles *sits in a corner and starts drawing circles on the ground*. At least I'm not doing anything that is really reckless during the holidays. I even tried making my own desserts. The feeling of having an oven is like, so AWESOME. Imagine that you're hungry and craving for something like melted cheese on bread or even cakes, you can always use an oven to fulfill your cravings. Overall, I did nothing much during this month of December.

Let me share with you guys about whatever I've done during these three weeks of holidays in December.

Yup, if you followed me on instagram you would have already known that I baked cheesecake cupcakes! They are seriously one of the yummiest things on earth. :D

IMG_8403

Went to ben's independent grocer and bought a mini can of coca-cola which costs me around RM4++. That is expensive.

Last spring '13


Was looking into my pictures file in the middle of the night and found some of these pictures which was taken in Hangzhou. Just wanted to share these old pictures with you guys here. :)

IMG_2721
Looks as if I was standing on my toes, hahaha. What I realised from my trip to hangzhou and shanghai was, during the cold season like spring or winter, no matter how nice you dress up on that day, you'll still end up wearing a coat/jacket on the outside. A pair of socks and hand gloves are always necessary to keep my hands and feet warm during the cold season.

Just a picture of the broken bridge at Westlake, Hangzhou. :)

Taken in Starbucks, Ling Yin temple.
