Changes

Some changes are good, others are bad. But one thing for sure, changes is inevitable.

I've changed. I know I have. It's really funny (a bit freaky) to reflect upon my own life and see how much I've changed in certain aspects. It's also really interesting to see which habits/behaviours still remain the same. I'm analyzing myself. Haha.

Ok but further elaboration is not necessary.

(This post is random and purely out of boredom)

Mind Boggling

Certain things people do really baffle me. Like I know I won't do such stuff, or at least not out of free will. But I guess, we are not meant to be the same and people do have reasons for their actions....

BIG REMINDER TO MYSELF:

Monica don't judge others. Monica don't judge others!!!

And you know right, there's this part of me that really wants to understand why people do certain things, in other words, I want to ask them why. But it'll be strange if I do so. Maybe that's why I enjoy Psychology so much (even though, I haven't really learned these in Psych). Hmmm.

10 more days!

It's 7 mins to 3am and I'm still wide awake. I'm tired and I want to sleep, but after reading people's blog, it got me excited about going home.

10 more days!!! That's super fast.

I really just want to be at home right now.. Sitting in the living room, 'fighting' over the remote control to the TV, pleading with my parents to allow us (my brothers and I) to switch on the air conditioner and omg so many other things..

And for those who never seem to remember.. I'm flying back on the 5th of Dec. I'll be reaching at night and if you really must know my flight details, email me or ask me online..

Cupcake Cake

Doesn't this cake look so so so prettyyy?? Got it from this website/blog called 'Cake Wrecks', and this like one of the non-wrecks? There are many other gorgeous looking cakes there and it's making me want to bake again..

One day I'm going to try to bake something like that. Maybe not so elaborate on the first time, but eventually I'll be able to bake something as pretty. Haha.

Love so amazing, love so divine

John 15:13

"Greater love has no one than this, that he lay down his life for his friends."

I've just gained a whole new insight to this verse after watching 2012. The mind-blowing love a friend has for another; a father has for his son; a servant has for his master; a man has for his country. I know I've watched 'sacrifices' in many different forms, but the fact that it kept recurring really struck me.

You don't necessarily view love only from the 'good guys'. Even though we have sinned, even though we are flawed, even though some may seem 'evil', there's still something way down deep that has that huge capacity to love.

I was so moved. I cried.

Guess this movie motivated me, even more, to love others. And this love branches out to so many other things..

Ponytail

Tied my hair up today. It's been a long time since I tied my hair up in a pony tail. Haha. Reminds me of the days back in mg when I used to think it was so gross to tie that ugly bamboo hairstyle. (I still think it's gross) For those who don't know what that is, it's basically a ponytail and then another rubberband on that ponytail... I remembered how I used to lose so many rubberbands, especially during PE, because my hair was layered and the rubberband just kept falling off.. Hahaha. Good old days.

So anyway, I attempted egg tarts today. Still not as nice as Daniel's, but I'll get there. Just that I'm not going to bake egg tarts for a LONG while because it's so tiring..

Oh and on Thursday I made pink cupcakes with EDIBLE silver balls. HAHA. Just recording all these down.. Haha

This is how I'm going to spend my holidays

Because I bought a monthly, Zone 1+2 tram ticket and it lasts all the way till the day before I leave Melbourne, I decided that I would explore Melbourne (which kinda means not staying at home all day).

It's not that I don't have exams; it's that I've finished my exams.

And so, I wandered into little random shops and found the coolest thing ever; heart-shaped egg ring. $2 for 2.

Next week, I shall venture out to zone 2, and make my tram ticket worth it. Haha

7-Eleven Day

Dear Friends in Singapore,

Be jealous. Be very very jealous. That we have 7-Eleven day, with free slurpees, and you don't. HAHA. I just had to do this. (It's just the things I do to procrastinate. Haha)

OH OH OH. AND I HAVE A RANDOM QUESTION.

You know how they say birds fly South for the winter. But during winter in the South, they fly North. So right.. Do the birds 'belong' to the South or the North? Because supposedly every 2 seasons they fly... (I know.. Interesting question)

Princess Diaries

Flipping through the pages of my diary.

I remember how this particular diary was inspired by 'The Princess Diaries'. Haha. For my first few entries I really tried to write in the same style. I had another diary and those had even funnier entries in them. I was young then. (I'M STILL YOUNG MIND YOU)

It's funny how I maintained a certain theme all these years. Don't ask me what it is, I probably won't say. Haha. You can imagine how embarrassed I'll be if anyone ever read it. And yet it's cool to see how my mindset changed, how I'm so much different from that girl a few years ago.

Fun fact:

This is just something for those who don't know. When I am writing essays, I always use my ruler to have a standard indentation for the start of every paragraph. And I only use a particular type of ruler. (yes for certain things I can be quite OCD). I still do it, even during exams. I absolutely refuse to estimate the 'two finger gap'. And it's funny to see how even in Primary school I was doing it (esp in my diary).

My Fairytale

Just waiting, wishing and praying...
