Busy Bee

Life has been so-so these past few weeks. Busy but not yet busy like a bee. The real busy starts when August kicks in, which is only a few days away. Dang! And fasting month also starting in a few days! Wondering how I'm supposed to conserve my energy while fasting when I got so many things to do.

Been signing up and volunteering for many events and charities. I decided a few months back that I gotta change my life and stop being such a lazy ass, thus, I'm drowning myself in events instead. But I don't mind really. It's time that I socialize myself with the world outside.

August: Completing 2 major projects. Attend JSXP Training Camp. Study like a witty insolent. Volunteer for L.I.F.E-ly Kidz Event. Fasting month.

September: Volunteer for food drive. Volunteer for JSXP for 2 weeks. Find work. Hari Raya.

October: Temporary work like there's no tomorrow. Volunteer for any charity events available.

That's how it goes. My free time are mainly set aside for studying, major projects, volunteering and working my ass off. I couldn't even think that I might have much time to go out with old friends since I'll be royally tired beyond comprehension. I need go buy Berroca soon to give me that extra energy boost to last for the next 3 busy months.

I think I get so busy most days that I would find myself multi-tasking like a boss. Eat and completing whatever important work there is. Either that or I thoroughly skip meals. Uh huh, I skip meals but not intentionally.

I HAVE TO SURVIVE THIS. Because I want to.

Weekend Madness!

WAGASHI: Japanese confectioneries

Can't really wait for Wagashi Day in Temasek Polytechnic this Saturday. Very limited seats available and I thank God that I got the morning session. Well, seems like we're going to make some wagashi accompanied by the Japanese way of appreciating tea. Like so cool.

I mean, I finally get to experience some Japanese culture here in Singapore before the Japanese Student Exchange Programme takes place at the end of September. Oh, I haven't told you yet, have I? I decided to volunteer to be a buddy when those Japanese students come over from 19 Sept to 1 Oct. I really, really hope I get to get myself a penpal after that. That'll just be the most awesome thing I've ever done in my 17 years of life. Just kidding, that's like so exaggerating.

But anyways, I'll be so freaking busy starting 16 July onwards. So, pardon me if I keep rejecting any invitation for a meet-up or outing. I can't seem to put my priorities right at this time.

Busy bitch needs her 2011 Planner book or she's as good as a failed lady.

At least I'm lucky enough my other 5 bitches are postponing our awesome baking session till next weekend. Yeah, I'm looking forward to baking with these girls and having so much fun and laughter together.

Saturday: Wagashi Day -> Vivocity -> Changi Airport -> Mustapha Centre

Sunday: Study whole day -> Do some Real Estate Business project -> Go out with family

I'll be tired and I might sleep like a log. So, good luck in trying to contact me in anyway you can think of.

Me, Rachel, Wan Hua, Aqidah, Meredith, TseFang.

We are forever the 6 girls skipping lectures. <3

Contradictory Week

I really don't know whether to call this week awesome or nonsense, but obviously it's not within those two. I wanted to call it awesome because I'm ending the week with cool things to do, like attending Wagashi Day this Saturday, but at the same time the week just happen to end in a nonsensical way by itself. Why? Well, my phone started to bitch again and this time, its bitchy side has crossed the limits and I can't accept that.

I'm not going to blame anyone about why the phone is like that. Because it's quite obvious that Nokia phones are getting lousier by the years. Shame on you.

Real Estate Business project has also been sucking up most of my time and there's like a string of tests coming up next week. I'm as good as dead.

I need my vacation. I need to find some work to sustain my growing spending power too.

Life has been hard but I'm trying my best to live on.

Week 4 to 7

How long has it been since I last update - 2 weeks? 3 weeks? Whatever it is, it sure feels so freaking long. I just missed having those free time to type my thoughts here, an alternative platform to spill out whatever thing I've been locking up inside of me. Yes, it's just difficult for me to speak up and talk freely. Okay, let's just say I'm very lazy to talk long-winded stuff. So I'll just type out and whoever wants to read, it's my pleasure. Whoever doesn't want to read, kindly scram :)

The first month in school totally past by like nobody's business. Damn fast, I tell ya! But it's darn stressing too, with the loads and loads of assignments, projects and quizzes. I thought I almost couldn't cope well but thank God I could, with the help of friends and never-ending encouragement from family and friends.

I passed my first Electrical Services for Facilities (ESFAC) lab at my first try since all that we were required to do was complete the 13-A plug. Chicken feet.

And then, there's the Math quiz result. Dammit, I only barely passed it with a shameful 11/20. This just goes to show my undying hatred for that subject. I was convincing myself that I could fall in love with ENG Math, but it's just out of my league. Heh!

Recently, we had to go all-out and complete a month-long Real Estate Business (REBUS) assignment whereby we have to collect 30 real estate articles, write a reflection and find the definition to all the real estate jargons and terms. Super headache task and it's no wonder that because of it, I've been sleeping way past 1am to finish it. At least it's all over now since the due date was 1pm today and I had stayed awake till 4am yesterday, or rather today, to finish up with the printing and pasting. My first time burning the midnight oil till 4am ever since school started though. Tiring? Hell yes. Sleepy now? Not really. My 3 hours of sleep didn't feel like a sleep anyways 'cause it felt more like I was awake throughout the whole night.

Okay, okay, I get it that it's over. And I celebrated the end of this assignment by eating at Pastamania and Frolick with my Poly clique :) Had a good, long laugh.

Week 4: Spamming assignments and meeting deadlines.

Week 5: Cramming last minute study, quizzes, huge REBUS deadline.

Week 6: Attached myself to the notes. Study week before Term Test!

Week 7: First 3 days with 3 Term Test papers only. Luckily~

Tsk. Whoever says Polytechnic is slack, should totally deserve to lick the floor I walk on. Idiots.

The hype of ESC and TPSU election in school is finally over. Results are out, and I hope they take off every damned banners that are littering the walls of the school. Such sore eyes.

I guess this is the end of my first part of updating for tonight.
