Achievement Unlocked!


YES I DID!

Another childhood dream fulfilled!

Today's FHI outing.. Cycling at East Coast Park!

Even though I can cycle now, I still lacked confidence.

Was kinda worried and my mind started to generate lots of random questions.. 
What if I'm not used to the bicycle there? 
What if I forgot how to cycle?
What if I knock someone down?
What if I fall down?

My worries lessened a lot after I started cycling. Haha!
And after cycling for a while. I began to feel A LOT more confident.
Okay, I can really cycle now.. I guess!

I CAN REALLY CYCLE NOW! WOOHOO!

In fact, I could even admiring the scenery and enjoy the cycling process!
Love going down the slopes (not too steep!) and feeling the wind tease my hair!

After cycling for an hour, it was time to go home.
Tired but very, very happy.
When I was young, I couldn't join my friends because I didn't know how to cycle.
But today, I could cycle with my colleagues!

Although I still cannot cycle very well yet, it was a huge achievement for me!
And I was happy to know that I can control the bicycle better now!
好开心耶!

I will continue to practise cycling!

Happy Birthday to Le Cnet!

Life is always interesting, thanks to the interesting friends we have!

One of them would be David, fondly known as Cnet from the good, old forum days.
He is also our 9gag / meme teacher! Haha!

Specially designed this to wish him a happy birthday.. Trollolol! :D






And his response..? 


LOL!

Ah, I miss the good, old days!

The day Cnet taught us how to 9gag and use meme! 
(In the bus heading to JB!)

Oh wow, I used to look quite cute eh? Heehee! Eh.. 3, 4 years ago?


Hope to meet up with the old forum folks again soon! :)

Rainy Saturday ♥

Wanted to go Mac to eat my brunch and do my assignment when it started to rain heavily!

Decided to cook my own brunch instead. 
(Yay, time for healthy brown rice! Been a while since I last had it.)

Waited and waited but the rain didn't show signs of stopping any time soon.
Not that I minded.. Haha!
Love the coolness of the air, thanks to the heavy rain! 
BEST weather for sleeping.. Woohoo!

Tried working on my essay but failed! Hahaha! I really tried..
I was feeling way too relaxed until I was struggling to keep my eyes open..

Looked at Fluffy and caught her dozing off.. Aww, cute max! 


Seeing her like that, I made a decision..

..Okay, assignment can wait.

*Headed for my wonderful dreamland blissfully*  
Life is perfect.. Haha!

---

Woke up in the evening.
Okay! Time to do my assignment!
Fighting! 加油!

I guess I can really use this excuse: My bunny ate my homework.. Haha!


Hope to finish my assignment by this weekend!
Deadline is next Tuesday!
Wish me luck! :)

I love Bonus!

Honestly I am never good in managing my finances.

Previously I had been fretting about the unexpected (and rather alarming) amount of money that I needed to fork out within short notice.. Was so stressed and depressed!

Fortunately, things turned out fine. Thank God!
(Well.. Perhaps I worried unduly because I wasn't aware of the solutions available. Heh!)

And I finally received the last installment for last year's bonus!


So happy that I still had a bit of money left after deducting the lump sum that I need to pay my sis for my dad's expenses (she forked out the money first).. Woohoo! Feels so darn good to repay another big debt! 
(And still have some spare cash in my bank account!)

Shall save up the rest for:
- My studies; or
- Any urgent and unexpected expenses required

But nonetheless, I splurged a little on a gift for myself.. Haha!
Not expensive lah.. About $30 only!
Waiting for it to be delivered! Guess what it is? Heehee!

---

Currently my only debt would be my studies loan. Should be done repaying in a year or 2.
So looking forward to it! :)
Then I'll have more money to save up each month!
(Hope I don't have any new expenses by then!)

Wonderful Day~♥

30 May 2015 (Saturday)

Studies

FINALLY.. My 1st class! Thank God!
And for the 1st time EVER (while I'm studying in Kaplan), I was actually EARLY!
Wow! *给自己掌声鼓励鼓励!*

继续努力 okay!

But well, the reason is probably because..
Been feeling so panicky ever since I realized that I had already missed TWO classes unknowingly!
I needed to confirm my group by TODAY! Oh no oh no!!
How how how!?

Moreover, I emailed my tutor previously and he didn't reply at all..
Made me wonder.. Did he see my email? Or did  he ignore me purposely?
Is he a nice teacher? Or a fierce one? Argh!

And ever since I realized my mistake, I kept thinking: 
I was wrong!! I will be more careful.. Please give me another chance!
(Haha! So stressed lor!)

Fortunately, my tutor is a nice and funny guy. PHEW!
So ya, my grouping is finally resolved. THANK YOU GOD!!
And guess what? I wasn't the only one who missed the previous 2 classes.. Haha!

See, not my fault! The current group of coordinators are too disorganized!
Anyhow sent us so many emails and so many revised schedules until we get confused!

But oh well.. Everything is resolved so let bygones be bygones~
Gotta focus on my module.. Fighting!

Suddenly I felt so relaxed.. Lalala~

Lunch with the Girls!

Met Sinyee and Seow Ting at I'm Kim after class! 
And it is just 5, 10 minutes walk away from my school.. So convenient!

Love the food here! So nice and it's free flow!


The girls just told me that I could enjoy student rates here by showing my student pass as it's applicable to part-time students too! Wah! I never knew that previously! Hoho, I can come here more often then! Heehee!

Ate until so full!
满足~

Always so happy to catch up with the girls!

Too bad Pearlyn can't join us.. Next time bah! :)

See you girls sooooooon!

My 1st KTV Outing with KTV Singing Club

Headed to Chinatown for the KTV outing..

Memories flooded my mind while I was in the MRT train.
How fast time flies.. Those good old days with the SGC / SB folks!

Lost count of the times that I wanna chicken out.. Haha!
Was tired, was shy, was alone, was not keen.. Whatever excuses.

But I told myself not to avoid anymore. Time to MOVE ON!
Go out and make some new friends!
Stop hiding in my cave!

Well, I'm glad I did! :)

Didn't feel like singing so I didn't sing much.

So happy that I got to know a new friend.. Gin!
A very sweet and cute lady!

I like her almost instantly and we hit it off immediately even though it was the 1st time we met!
People thought we knew each other already.. Keke!

Generally everyone was so nice.. And guess what! 
One of them actually lives just beside me and our mothers know one another! Haha! 
What a small world!

Had a good time with my new friends and I do look forward to seeing them again soon!

Ending the day (and this post) with our group photo! :)


I gotta admit, it feels nostalgic and.. Very nice. :)

Hello society, Pris is back. Haha!

Where Is My Voice~~~

Finally! I am going to sing karaoke this weekend!
BOTH Saturday and Sunday, in fact! Although I didn't arrange for that deliberately.

Was casually singing some of the songs that I used to sing.. 
And I realized that I couldn't hit the high notes!!
What?! *Cries*

1 word to describe my high notes: CUI!
(Must be my retribution for criticizing people's singing last time.. Haha!)

See lah, too long never go ktv until my vocal cords are really 'rusty' liao! SIGH!!
My vocal range has become so much more narrow now!
NOoo..!

---

Started doing some vocal exercises from what I still remembered from my choir days..
(Erm.. That's more than 10 years ago.. >.<)

Decided to search for some help from Youtube and I found some good ones! 
Embedding is disabled so here's the link instead: Cari Cole

Didn't expect to see results immediately..
But thank God, my voice was a weeny bit better after half hour of vocal training.
(Or perhaps my voice sounded better after the warm up.)

Sure hope my vocal training and singing don't disturb anyone!
Was trying not to do it too loudly.. Haha!

I miss the good old days when I hit high notes with ease!
I also had better control with my vocals!
It's like, I could control every single word to sound the way I want it to be.
(Within my means, of course lah! Haha! My singing was okay only. Not that fantastic.)

But now ah.. 
I can't even control my vocals properly.
音 anyhow 跑 sia!
And the 音色.. Sigh. Become 褪色 liao lah!

That kinda feeling when you wanna sing it with all you've got but you are restricted!
心有余而力不足。

---

Nonetheless, I'm still excited for the upcoming karaoke sessions! 
Just don't sing those difficult songs lor.. Haha! 
Relax relax sing can liao lah!

Obsessed Owner.. Haha!

Went Daiso and bought some (pink) stuff for Fluffy! Weeeeee~

1. Sakura-shaped bowl for her pellets (I love this!)
2. Brush with small dustpan for cleaning her cage
3. Detachable tray to put some of her miscellaneous stuff


Been wondering what clothes can she wear because she's so small!

So I bought these! Cute on her right?



These are actually scrunchies used for tying up the hair lah!
But they look nice on Fluffy, isn't it? :) 

Just a random shot.. Heh!


Love this moment because Fluffy happened to nudge my face with her little nose! 

So tired after a long day.. So goodnight to all! 

Last but not least, here's ending my post with another random photo.. Haha!


Just a quick confession before I end this post.. I sucked in my tummy to look slimmer! Haha!
(Of course I didnt wear like that out.. 
Haha! I took out my over-sized top because it was sooo warm!)

Okay, tata! Sweet dreams ya!
