The Ball

March and April have been really relaxing. Labs ended end of March and basically we just chilled around and occasionally, reading up journals to start writing up our dissertation. Then came Easter break! Which I've spent in Italy, my dream country. I seriously miss that place so so much. I'll definitely visit that place again, especially Rome *since I've made my wish at the Trevi Fountain* 

I've missed out so many blog post cause too much of journal readings just makes me a lazy girl. Now that work has been progressing well, gonna start updating again! Just read Hanny's blog and decided to write a similar one. Instead of babbling about the night and duplicating pictures which are already all over facebook, I think her idea was better. Looking at the past and see how much we've grown throughout these years.

In just less than 3 months time, we'll be seeing each other in our graduation robes!!! Can't believe 4 years of my university life just flew passed like this. I could still remember the days in my first year. Where I would be thinking; when will I get to fly over to the UK and when will I ever graduate. 4 years seems like a pretty long time for me that time. Now, I feel the 4 years is seriously way too short =( Part of me wants to graduate and stop worrying over exams and coursework. At the same time, there's also this part of me who is so reluctant to accept the fact that my student life is coming to an end and got to move on to a whole new stage of life. Not sure if working life is gonna be stressful but I just assumed, hence the NO! But reality is still reality >.<

Being fickle-minded, I cant decide where to do my pre-reg yettttt! *headache* 
Something for you and I to think about tonight.
Stay or not stay?
What say you?

Smile =)

I'm crazy!

I've been smiling the entire day.

For I-dont-know what reason.

Even when I'm listening to those super emo songs.

But but but.........

I LIKE!

Cause it's been awhile since I've had that smile!

Hopefully it'll last!

=D

*p/s: This picture was taken like a year ago. So, that's still the fat me. Which I totally don't miss =p*

Ugly Truth

For the past 1 month, my emotion has been like a roller coaster ride. Up and down, again and again. The cycle never ends.

Throughout these years, I thought you're someone that I could confide in whenever I have problems. I always felt sorry for you because of what I did to you few years ago. Others kept telling me that it's not entirely my fault, but I can't get over it. Hence, I felt that I owed you. A real big one. Before this, I was really glad to have such a friend. I never thought a friend like you can do so much for me.

I admit occasionally I can be quite ridiculous. Giving you silent treatment all of a sudden. But before you start complaining, have you thought why I gave you those silent treatment? We've talked about it many times. You always say you understand. But to me, you never really did.

When you came to talk to me the other night, I confronted you. I thought you would admit to it. But instead, you lied straight to my face and covered it with another lie. I really almost fell for it another time. Until I discovered the truth behind those lies again. You must be thinking, why did I choose to believe in what others said and not you. Like I told you, if it comes from just one person, I might not believe in him/her. But if there's more than one, I can't find any reasons to convince myself that it's not the truth.

Discovering too much definitely isn't a good thing really. Those words are like imprinted on my heart. Its so hard to forget. I tried to remove it, but it's beyond what I can do. My heart just shattered into pieces whenever I think of you. Those words and things you did behind my back.

I really missed those days where we can smile and laugh together like there's no tomorrow. Every smile was from the heart. Pure genuine smiles. We can never go back to those days, cant we? I doubt so.

Sometimes I do wish I never knew the truth because it hurts so much. Not even once, I'd ever imagined that I could be hurt so badly. Till this very moment. It's because I've trusted you too much, that cause me to be hurt till this extend.

However, if it isn't because of the truth, I'll never know who are my true friends and wake up from this seems-to-be-perfect world of mine. It's time to face the reality. The reality that people are not as simple as what I used to think.

Thanks to the truth,

That it has make me a stronger person now.

The Truth

Revealed.

A truth that was too cruel for me to accept.

But I know I must this time.

Cause I wouldn't want to let myself fall into that cycle ever again.

I was blinded before this.

But now,



This serves as a wake up call for me.

Or perhaps all of us.

Time to wake up from the fantasy world.

Fab Fab Februlicious

Blog has been under hiatus for weeks. Why no updates??? Again! Its the lazy me. Procrastination as usual. Lab work started 3 weeks ago and surprisingly, am not as busy as I expected yet. Instead I was too busy booking flight tickets and planning my easter and summer holidays =.=''' Almost 1000gbp gone in just 2 days. So I'm practically broke now!

Anyway, gonna wrap up february in this post. So read up!

♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥

Fab fab february started off with heavy snowwwww which only lasted for a night. Waited since November for it to come and finallyyyyy!!! Weather here has been really weird this year. Last year snow came around November and it lasted for about 2 weeks. Winter was pretty long then. During this time last year, I was still battling with the cold but look how sunny it is now! Double digit temperature can u imagine? Guess spring is about to step in =)


Snow was so heavy that it actually become so thick,
just enough for snow fight!


After the long wait, I managed to make my very first snow
angelllll. Nice nice??? Hehe =p


We tried out something new this winter too!
Sledding down the Portland hill. It was so much fun and
honestly, I didn't have enough of it. If only the snow lasted
longer, I would definitely go for another round.


Too lazy to make a big snowman but petite ones
are equally cute isn't it?


Wondering who made this?! Simply amazed by it.
Definitely not an easy task!


The ultimate fun and spontaneous group!

No more lectures this semester and each and everyone has their own lab work to do in different places. Hence, we don't get to meet much often like we used to anymore. So, having random dinners could be the best way for us to catch up.

Started off with hotpot buffet in China Fu. Love their fish head soup.
Prolly cause I haven been having it for such a long time and I
seriously missed it so much. FISH!!!! ><


Their sweet potato and pumpkin dessert was the winner
of the night! After the first bite, we went crazy and started
ordering more and more. 6 of us had 48 of these. Scary??? But true.
So imagine how good it was. The owner must have regretted for
placing this dessert as part of the buffet. Or only for our case? =p

14/2/2012. Valentine's. A day that all couples anticipated for. But for us, the singles, it's just like any other day. Every year has been the same. Just a few of us having a decent dinner together. Nothing special.

After a long tiring day in lab, good food always makes me
a happy girl again! Thali from Tamatanga. Always my love <3


The night ended with some chit chat session at Sinatra
over cocktails ^^


This valentine has been a bit extraordinary. Cause our beloved
thorn bought roses for the roses!!! Who said valentine is only
for couples???

♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥

It's another SPICE night! Last year, I was down the stage, watching the performance while gobbling on the free food. This year??? I was on the stage, performing! Shocking shocking??? I was shock myself too when I agreed to be part of the dancing team this year. Haha. Always wanted to dance but never got the chance. I gave up the opportunity last year due to my laziness. Too lazy to walk all the way to Portland for practices. Plus the cold weather outside just makes me feel like staying indoor. But this time, I decided to fight against the laziness and do something different. And yup! I did not regret at all and I'm glad I made the first step. I really really do enjoy the practices and the time spent with the crew.

After all, what's life all about when you don't do something unusual?! Agree???

SNSD wannabe =)


Mr Taxi. Wanted to upload the video but the file was simply
too big and I have no idea how to compress it or whatsoever.
But it's everywhere on FB anyway, so sneak a peek there!


The drummer, the guitarist and the lead singer. Guess what?
They are all my lecturers O.o Surprising isn't it?! We were
totally impressed by their talents!

Cheers!!! The after party celebration at Mooch ^.^

Last but not least, a lil updates regarding my lab work! The research I chose was regarding the antihypertensive effects of garlic oil. The project is still kinda boring. Probably cause it's still on the trial stage and we have not really started testing on the individual compounds of garlic oil yet. The project is also making me a lackadaisical girl once again. I've been slacking a lot lately. Seriously ALOT! =s


Dissecting the porcine pulmonary artery. My favourite thing
to do every morning and apparently it's the most interesting
part of the experiment =.=

One thing that I hated about this experiment is the smell. The garlic OMG!!! I used to love the smell especially when you use it for cooking. But imagine smelling it everyday? After 2 weeks, I sorta got sick of it and feel like puking everytime I enter the lab. The smell is everywhere!!! In the lab, at home and on myself >< 6 more weeks to go =x

♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥

Before I forget, one super duper important thing to that I have to inform all of my beloved readers! All the hardwork paid off and........

I'M GRADUATING THIS JULY!!!

=D

Doom Day!

Exam results will be out in another 15 hours.

I've never been so nervous before.

My aims are getting lower and lower.

Just give me a pass now and I'll be more than grateful.

That's the most I can ask for.

*fingers crossed*
