Sometimes, just sometimes...
HELLO YOU.
blog's unlocked. =)
The holidays have been a rather lazy and sluggish one thus far, with me sleeping at 6am and waking up only at 3pm every single day. So that just means I head out for meet ups at night these days.
So far, these have brought me joy and lots of laughter:
- The lovely wedding which took place immediately after the exams, under a huge canopy in fort canning, a garden party!
- A usual zi char steamboat round table family style with KCC, all finally (still alive I'm glad) after the exams.
- MJ/Rockband/HTHT session over at Chomp's was fun too.
- Grooving to Bad Romance with the girls after loads of various liquids ingestion was definitely an epic night.
- Something which totally made my day after I received bad news: MS' return and the spontaneous chill out and HTHT session over at K's was heartwarming.
- Dinner, movie and late night tau huey with hallies have been a habit already. It's comforting to know that at least the friendship doesn't cease to exist once I'm no longer in hall.
Somehow typing all these out just gives me the warm fuzzy feeling all over again. A comfortable kind of therapy for me.
The simple things in life can be really therapeutic too. Solitary drives late into the night, shutting yourself off from the rest of the world and just being a fangirl/netizen, ( sacrificing the perfect eyesight) dinners and dramas with the family ( Ch 8, 9pm daily), spending time alone to think about life and what it brings can really keep one grounded and to an extent, sane in this insane world.
Instead of dwelling in misery and lamenting over the circumstance we're in, it might just be better to engage in the simple little things once in a while and emerge stronger to face whatever challenges that come your way. Eventually, no one can dictate your life for you, you got to be responsible for how you want it to turn out. It's really mind over matter. Hopefully those around me would be able to sort things out and be happy, truly happy. =)
I'm still rather upset over the whole issue. Things always get worse when jealousy sets in. With greater expectations come greater disappointment. How very true. However, I believe that everything happens for a reason and opportunities will definitely come when the time is right. So the most I can do now is to make the best of what is before me. Someday I will be able to cross the globe and experience the life I've always dreamt of. Optimism, determination, faith and hope, albeit intangible and unmeasurable, is definitely a strong force to keep one going.
Family photoshoot later! It's the first time the family comes together for an official professional photo. Rather hyped out for it. However, I'm currently feeling super wide awake, accompanied by a terrible tummy ache. Fine I concede defeat. Cold/ Blended coffee/Chilli padi will never co-exist harmoniously with the stomach. Maybe Starbucks just doesn't agree with me, specifically Darkchoccherrymochafrap.
Really looking forward to the coming weeks, especially with Christmas drawing near. Just makes me want give everyone a nice warm hug, making known to them how much they mean to me and how I'm so thankful they've entered my life=D
ok, this post have been rather cheesy. It's the prelude to The Christmas Post afterall.
Just hope the tummy will stop hurting soon.
