  • Home

    Hello! Just a very short update from home. It has been 3 days and I am enjoying every moment at home, BUT the time to enjoy is just too short before the stupid exam results are coming out to spoil the whole thing. SIEN. Just checked my email and they have already sent out the S/U option email. When I saw the email and it reminded me of exams again, then I started to tremble all over. So sien. I have this really bad feeling about it.

    I didn't bring my laptop back so I am not 'always online' anymore. Hope to get a new laptop soon. I have lots of photos but they are still in my camera.

    I am loving home. Somebody is trying to match-make me with his nephew. I am only 22!! He said you can't only be studying all the time. You must learn to do two things at one time. HAHA! I think I'm doing that quite well, just that not in a successful manner ba.

    Good food, good mood. =)

    Will update soon. Buh-bye!

  • Christmas Shopping


    Taken outside of Tangs

    I went shopping. ALONE. My mom kept asking me to go out and shop. Hey, she called me at 800am this morning to ask me if I was going out can! Oh man, I was trying to get more sleep after one week of training! Ok, not complaining here. Always love to hear my mom's voice, but funny how she always calls early in the morning. That's the only time she's free. I just feel bad because how excited can you sound when you just woke up early in the morning right? Only can answer "yea, yea" in a hoarse voice.

    Another thing my mom never realizes is that when I go shopping now, I go ALONE. How sad is that! I don't have a freaking boyfriend to go with me la. Like you know, i wanted to watch new moon but watch new moon alone? How sad is that again!? And when i looked at all the christmas deco, i looked at them ALONE again. Sad sad sad... and when i wanted to take picture of the deco, i had to camwhore alone. Wahlao, i think those passer-bys saw me also thought I si beh kesian.

    I sound like despo can?

    But Orchard Road is really pretty with the decos!


    Along Orchard Road

    I was just walking around Atria, Ion, Tangs and Far East. I wanted to walk down towards Plaza Sing but was too tired and getting late. I am sure there are many pretty decos down the road. Saw some gingerbread house kinda thingie when I was on the bus. =( Hopefully I can go back there again.


    Super huge Christmas tree just outside of Ion. This tree is pretty special because there's an entrance where u can enter the tree. So the tree is not just decorated on the outside but on the inside too.


    This is on the inside. Pretty right?? Closer look...


    Nice.............

    Now a sad a lonely camwhore picture.


    I am rudolph the BLACK nose reindeer. Geee.. so burnt right? Freaking ugly. yucks!

    Ever since after the exam when I started shopping, I spent............ oh my gosh I don't even to say it out, really quite a lot it's scaryyyyyyyyy.... and I havent bought enough yet. Havent gotten all that I want. When my bank runs dry, the rest of the items which I want will go under What-I-want-for-Christmas/birthday list.

    Not bad. Usually I really hate shopping, now at least I have the girly side of me. It's good sign! But towards the end when I was so tired, I bought without thinking dy. So I had to stop, if not I'll definitely regret.

    One more day... still can shop or not? See how.

  • After one week of trainings

    This is the longest week I have ever experienced in my whole life, longer than reading week. I have clocked 30 hours of training within this week and that's on average 6 hours per day. I definitely need the rest very badly. My legs need it, my thigh muscles have been aching since Tuesday. My ankle and feet need the rest too. My skin need to be away from the sun, too much sun in this one week already. I am so tanned now somebody can easily mistaken me as... a whiter version of an Indian.

    I feel really tired but overall, it's pretty fulfilling that I actually don't feel like going home but stay back to continue training because I want to improve very badly and I need to. It's the first time ever that I want to stay back in Sg during the hols. Amazing! I don't want to come back, losing the touch and gaining so much weight that I can't even run! I truly love sports. I hope I can continue playing team sports after I graduate. Gonna miss it so much!

    I want to be a master of something and that requires a lot of training. I met this handballer who is like superb, god of handball we call her. Even the guys also have to bow down to her. She runs at lightning speed. I truly admire her, and she's my size! How I wish I could be like her, maybe in.. a thousand years yeah.

    Train train train, we just have to force ourselves to improve!

    I have two more days left in Sg before I go home and my plan for the next two days is to shooooooooop! I hope I can get out of bed tomorrow. Shopping will be a pain with the muscle ache.

    Go Geri! Going home is not as exciting anymore because I need to stay fit and cannot simply eat. BUT, I'm already thinking about Christmas turkey, ham, laksa, kolomee and many many more. Better pray that I have self-control over my mouth!


  • Rant

    I am angry with myself. I can never learn. After three years in the sport and I still suck at it! People keep telling me the same things to change and improve. I tried, but I need to try harder. I must get this right. Why can't I apply the drills during games. It's so frustrating!

    People might look at me as sporty since I join so many sports, train so much and I'm so tanned now but so what? I can never master a skill perfectly and do all the moves nicely. I suck la. Jack of all trades, master of none. That's me. Side step Geri side step!!! Remember that!! One on one!! Never miss the chance when it's a one on one! Frust la! Argghhh...

    I'm so useless. sienness. I must keep reminding myself. I must do this! Same in basketball. What point guard. I can't even pass the damn ball properly. I like to shoot, but my shooting sucks big time now. What the hell is wrong with me? damn useless. Even if I bear the pain in my ankle and just train, it doesn't seem to benefit me or the team at all.

    WHY AM I LIKE THAT?!?!?! =(

    off to bed~ full day of trainings tomorrow! 830am to woohoo~ 9pm. -_-  I better damn improve.

  • A short runaway to KL

    My ankle doesn't bother me anymore. =) Just be stubborn and train then you can overcome the pain and it doesn't hurt anymore. Yay! I love trainings, even though I am like a lobster now but the super tired feeling after a full day of training is awesome and when you fall on your bed, you are gone immediately. Best feeling in the world!

    This is a late post. I've uploaded the photos earlier on but haven't had the time to write about my short lil runaway to KL. =) It was soooooooo short but thanks to Joc, my dear best friend for hosting us!

    Simon, JonTan, Gail and I started the journey from Sg in Simon's car, at 630am on Saturday.



    North-South Highway

    We stopped at Seremban to buy some pineapple tarts and siew pao and also to drop Jon and Gail off.



    Famous Seremban pastries

    You know how along highways they have all those huge adverts, I found this really cute so took a photo of it.



    Don't know what a big tap on the donno what. So cute!

    Then we went to pick Joc up at IMU. Before reaching her place, we had the greatest nightmare with KL road. Simon's GPS said "Turn left" at some super complicated mess of highways but on the left there were two roads and he took the wrong one. After that, we realised. Oh o... The GPS recalculated the route and said "Drive 15km along donno what and then donno what" FIFTEEN KILOMETRES!!!! Then there I saw the super long stretch of highway!! Wah siao liao. We were so close to IMU and then one wrong turn, gone case. So we drove 15km and guess what? reached a toll plaza, paid for the toll then got lost in Putrajaya. !?!?!?! After that found the U-turn, turn back, paid for the toll again and drove another 15km back to IMU. This is why I will never drive in KL. Hate the roads.

    Due to the mistake and the jam in KL (hate those jams too), we had a late lunch but a good one. Ampang Yong Tau Fu!!! =)



    After that we just went back to Joc's apartment because we were too tired. Then at night, all of us crammed into Simon's car and we went to Kajang for satay!



    Joc's housemates. Sorry Joc, only this pic clear. =p



    *SluRPS*



    Joc and I. I was still fair then. =( Now lobster dy.

    Then Joc served us with her homemade macaroni and tiramisu! Nice nice.... I want recipe!



    We stayed in the whole night and I slept quite early coz was super tired. Sorry Joc! Wanted to talk to you throughout the night but couldn't make it. We'll catch up again back in Kch alright? =)

    Then the next morning, we started our journey back at 630am again. Super early. Stopped at Muar to get the famous Muar Otah.



    I don't like Otah but others said this Muar Otah is nice.

    Then we stopped by some random coffee shop to have breakfast.



    My fishball noodle. It's called fishball noodle and yes, the fishball is very nice.. but u know what? There are only TWO fishballss in the soup. TWO SMALL ONES, and they call this fishball noodle. Amazing.

    After that we just drove all the way back to Sg. Arrived at around 1030am. Quite fast ya. It was a really short trip but was fun, although a bit tiring.

    You see I am rushing through this post because I need to go soooon! Another fully-packed day.

    Jia you lo everyone! wherever u are! MUAKS!
