It's the first day of the new semester. And I have yet to settle with what modules I should take. Seriously, course registration is really taxing as many things are needed to be done here and there to ensure things are in the correct way. Hmm, I hope all the best for myself on doing it.

Anyway, Jiahui, Yeeli and Marilyn had finally gone to Caffe Pralet with me on Sunday. They did agree that the place is great for quiet chill-out with friends and the cakes sold are interestingly nice, like its signature Pralet. Hmm, I don't mind heading there again with or without company. Oops.



Oh oh, by the way, Marilyn and Jiahui got me a Kate Spade pouch from the US. Oh my goodness, they understand me quite well that I like to carry black personal items like wallet and laptop backpack. And, yup, Marilyn has thought well of the possible functions the pouch can have. Haha...it seems like they can now identify my 'patterns'. I'm so glad about that !!



Hmm, I can't wait to try Thai food at Joe's Thai Place with them. But, let's face it. The semester has already commenced. Serious business is needed to be inserted for sustainability. Yah, serious business. Don't 'play play'.

They are all back !! I mean, those who went for holiday during the recent long holiday. Haha...I can't wait to meet up with every single one of them to hear what they had experienced during their free and easy trip. Actually, I had met with my cousins, Jasmine and Jessie, who just returned home from Seoul yesterday afternoon. Man...I must say that their trip was fantastic, with great sightseeing, exciting skiing, worthwhile shopping buys and interesting meet-ups with local friends.

Oh, talking about worthwhile shopping buys, the facial masks and cosmetic products there are really cheaper and of a wider variety. Hmm...something like you can be really spoilt and confused by choice. Haha...managed to get myself some facial masks from my cousins. Jasmine also conveniently helped me to buy Laneige's Water Sleeping Pack, which a number of her colleagues requested her to buy during the trip. Wow, it seems so cool that I wanna try it soon !! The original-flavoured seaweeds there, which Jasmine's pen pal recommended, are really nice too. Crispy, aromatic and abit oily. In another word, they are superb !!




Okay, I must say that it is the first time I feel that South Korea can be interesting for me to explore in the near future. Haha...but it won't be so soon. I need to keep aside a considerable sum of money to spend more freely during the trip. Meanwhile, I will just enjoy what I have now. Oh yeah, I'm liking it !!

It seems like...the method really works. W-A-L-A !! Okay, it's now back with a new beginning. Can we see a continuation of the trend? Or even better trend? Well, one thing for sure is to be strong and consistent at heart and soul.

Anyway, I just realised that I really kept myself enjoying food during this holiday. Be it my favourite mashed potatoes at Popeye's or simply Starbucks' Silent Night, I just let myself indulge in nice food. Hahaha...oh, not that I didn't get my favourite Starbucks' Caffe Mocha so far. Actually, I did. All my close friends know that I just pop into a Starbucks to get a drink as and when I feel like having one. So, when the new semester is to start, I need to get my control back. I mean, seriously. Hahahaha...

It's up and down, and up and down. I guess that's life is supposed to be. Of course, there are people who are plain damn lucky to have a smooth life from birth till death. Hmm, but, don't just admire these people. Have a strong willpower and put in efforts to strive for what you want in life. Even if you don't get 100% of your desired results, I'm sure you will feel that you already have got the best out of yourself and can cherish what you possess. Right?? Think about it, people.

Anyway, recently Jasmine and I have 'secretly' went to Malaysia to take a nice break from home. Haha...and this time round, we finally tried the food and beverages at Robin's Portuguese Chicken. Omg...the chicken is real NICE !! The Macau-style milk tea is not bad too. Wow, it's really worthwhile to spend my money on these. After that, we went around to see what we could get, before watching the film, The Princess and the Frog.




After the film, we went on with our shopping before settling down to have cakes and coffee at Secret Recipe. Haha, I got the famous Chocolate Banana while Jasmine got the healthy trans-fat free peach cream cake. Also, we got ourselves a Iced Mocha and a hot Cafe Latte. Hmm, it is really cheaper to dine in Malaysia, with consideration of the kind of service and taste provided. Finally understand why some can head to Malaysia weekly to shop and dine. People, you should give it a try one day, if possible.





Okay, I think I need some time to do some important stuffs, like tidying the study materials and double-check the status of my wardrobe. Talking about my wardrobe, I'm seriously way from my sister's. Her clothes, shoes, bags and fashion-related items are too 'powerful' to catch up. Still, within my means, I should constantly seek for improvement, and set my own standard. Oh yeah...I believe I can do it!!

Busy or not, it's something Man always has a mixed feelings about. When you are busy, you want to be free. When you are free with lots of time, you want to be occupied with something meaningful. Why are we so complicated and contradicting? Luckily, I do recognise this fact and am doing something about it. Hmm...should make better use of free time, rather than complaining that I'm bored.

Anyway, I just realise that Karen Mok is having her highly-anticipated 'The Original Karen Mok Show' tonight at Beijing Workers' Stadium. Seriously, I like her style, just like how I like that of Cheer Chen. Haha...of course, both ladies are of different genres. Karen Mok is more experimental, while Cheer Chen is more 'back to basics' kind. I have ever been to Cheer Chen's concert, and I guess it's time to attend concerts of other artistes whom I appreciate. So, Karen, I sincerely hope that you can bring your show here soon. And try not to crash into my busy periods, like near mid-semester period and examination period. Thanks, and all the best to you tonight!!

I just had a good laugh and a silly smile on my face. What I told them that day were totally spot-on. Haha...seems like I'm not that silly at all. We do have mutual understanding of one another. But, it does not matter anymore. Things have changed. And I still wish everyone all the best in life.

Oh, anyway, I have been asking myself what can be done during this holiday period, other than sleeping and surfing internet. Marilyn was advising me to identify my passion, or goals in life. Okay, talking about these, I just bought a book of my interest. I have been considering to buy such book for a long time. To go further in this area, learning will need to come in, just like any professionalism. So, no waste of time and I should get myself enriched with relevant knowledge over this period. Hope the best for me. Cheers.

A semester has just gone away. And I don't know how to feel this time round. Something for sure is, that I feel physically exhausted over nearly a month of revision for examination. Hahaha...that explains why I paced myself fast out of the examination hall yesterday and headed straight home. Nah...not trying to avoid anyone. It is just that my headache was bugging me to go rest as soon as possible.

Anyway, my sister is engaged. Yup, she announced that in front of a group of family and friends on last Sunday. Though small in term of scale, I feel that to only invite a handful of closed ones to witness one's life milestone is really sufficient. Oh, the food for the engagement party is really high-class. Melissa and me were saying that we were unsure of which utensil to use for the dish. Joshua then assisted us on this by saying 'it always goes from outside first'. Oh oh, there is foir gras with truffles dressing. To my understanding, these two food are among the most expensive food list. Wow...no wonder the price tag per person is like that. Thanks to Sam and Sheena. And I feel real happy for you.



Okay, I think I need to get adjusted back to a healthy routine with lots of sleep and saying 'no' to all suppers and irregular meals. Examination has done considerable damage to my body. Time to get healed !!
