I honestly think with every fibre of my being that everyone should read this book at least once. Last Saturday, I woke up at 1pm and decided to start on Vortex and from then on, I was hooked onto it :) The only time I left my spot was to get juice/ yakult from the kitchen and I did that all the way until 6pm, when I found myself at the last page. It's definitely one of the best books I've ever read and once the 3rd book comes out I'm getting it!
finished my korean drama too and i'm still hungover it but i'll get over it soon........... Had dinner out with my dad and bro twice in the week cuz my mum, aunt and brother were in japan so we decided that there wasn't any reason why we shouldn't be enjoying ourselves too! We had steamboat on one day and chinese food on another and it was great because we talked a lot over both dinners which isn't something that we always do since my dad is overseas most of the time :)
an old photo with my dad i came across while i was looking through old pictures hehe
headed out to Newton on Wednesday and spotted a really french looking bakery/ cafe!!! The smell of freshly baked bread was really tempting so my mum, bro and I decided to stop by and try something new :) the bread was really soft and tasty and I don't know if it's just because I love bread that I'm saying this but it was really good :D we tried the chocolate cake above and i give it 5 stars out of 5. It was so yummy and the chocolate wasn't too rich! Plus, the prices of their pastry are really reasonable and worth it :)
went out to nex to meet yvonne, loraine and yifeng yesterday for our history project and we ended up camping at pastamania. Had a good lunch and sogurt and managed to catch up with them so it was another happy day!!
as for today, i studied with kennedy and marcus at the airport and I think we were quite productive hehe. Met Marcus at 10:30 and decided to walk around for about an hour and he bought fries from macs before we went back to carl's jr. Found a little corner and kennedy came so we moved to a bigger table :) kennedy's brother and his girlfriend were there too and i think they're v cute haha
stayed there all the way till evening and had dinner! met yixiu there and managed to talk to her for a while when marcus and i were queuing for dessert. Tried some tangyuan thing and it was not bad! Trained back to tampines cuz kennedy wanted to cut his hair but marcus and i bussed home first :)
that's another good day to add on to for the month of June :)
come to think of it, i haven't done lots of things i said i'd do in june. Say for example........... USS/ WWW/ korean bbq/ revision but i'm definitely very very happy at this point of time and i don't want june to end. It still feels quite surreal though ):
so in this month alone, i'm glad i spent more time with alicia because ever since my granny moved to bedok, the family no longer meets up at her house every weekend. I got used to it already but sometimes i can't help but wish we still carried on with the habit because most of my childhood was spent staying over at her house with my cousins/ playing pretend games there etc
we also managed to meet up with my other aunts and i won't deny how happy i feel when the whole family spends time together, it reminds me so much of how things were like when we were young :)
i'm glad that i managed to watch my dramas/ read my books/ catch up on running man/ wake up at 12pm/ sleep at 3am because all these were stuff i never managed to do on normal school days!!! So although i'm not done with my homework, i'm not going to regret not starting earlier :)
oh
loraine, yvonne and yifeng were talking about the future at lunch yesterday, like what courses they would be taking in uni & what they wanted to be and i don't know if it's worrying that i don't have a plan because i really have no idea which faculty i'd like to be in/ what i'd be working as 10 years down the road. It's really scary because nobody knows anything about what's going to happen or what you'd be doing and you yourself have zero knowledge about it. 10 years down the road I'll be 36 and i hope that by then i'd have a happy family. We'd live in a simple house and we'd have enough to get us by - enough to pamper ourselves once in a while, but enough to remind us to be appreciative and modest. I would have found the "someone" i've always dreamed of and i don't know how to describe it but i'll know it when it comes. The house would be filled with children's laughter and their cries but these will remind me of the joy and purpose of being alive. 10 years down the road i don't need to be successful or famous or rich but i'll be happy because i'd have enough and more than enough
ok bye! :)
