update on life ٩(͡๏̯͡๏)۶

started off last week with an off day and ending off prelims officially ;; headed out to orchard to celebrate megs and biebs' birthdays - had dinner at orchard gateway !!

we then decided to have some fun at h&m to go pick out clothes for each other and all but fitting rooms were too crowded :-: so we headed to forever21 instead hahaha elle picked this out which I thought was so ridiculous cause I would never wear smth like that and idk but it gave me that music festival vibe

the shorts were so loose cause she took a super big sized one sigh
then we all went back since there was still sch the next day TTT obviously took photos as a clique before leaving


went home and bubu requested to take some selcas hehe


during the weekends, because the youngest two had gone out with my grandparents, I could go out and have a good meal with my parents and gordon orz ; cause kr bbq is not the younger two's style ;; went to central whoo


I tried; its rly difficult to take a selca from far away with just one hand cries; my face is so blocked

army stew and bbq wheeee
ended this meal with churros from orchard central !! this new shop called spanish doughnuts had got a salted caramel churro as well and omg it is super super good

plain churros w like 3 diff chocolates
this week passed super quickly with chi intensives ;-; doing mock papers everyday and going through them . the teachers' efforts were really superb , marking all our compos and email writings everyday and returning them to be gone through the next day/ I guess I am not really putting in enough effort since I can still be typing all this shit but oh wells.


photo w chen laoshi for our last individual lesson w her for this year !! gave her postcards which were supposed to be part of kindness singapore where u give post cards to appreciate the elderly in your community but chen laoshi is counted one i guess since she already has grandchildren hahaha

ending this post of with the male who makes me smile everytime I see him smiling and being happy ^^ stay cheerful bby
yes, keep laughing and being happy like that

butter cake ヾ(*´∇`)ノ


was actually supposed to bake a banana cake but the bananas my grandma bought were a different kind and smelt different so I didn't dare make a cake with it.

so i decided to make a butter cake since she suggested and I came across this recipe >> Mdm Ng SK's Butter Cake which alot of sg bloggers had baked and said how successful and delicious it came out 

love how the cake is so fluffy and light ;;; had not eaten a butter cake since forever so I can't exactly compare orz

grub ꒰⑅•ᴗ•⑅꒱

met up with chloe and clara yesterday (18/05) for brunch !! me and chloe sort of agreed to go eat churros after prelims and since prelims sort of ended , we went to have some hahaha.

decided to go grub since churrosity is closed on sundays apparently ;;; oh wells . we met pretty early , like at 10.30am at nex then headed to amk to take a bus there since it was at bishan-amk park hahaha.

surprisingly there was no queue but I guess it was because we reached there pretty early and it was drizzling 

me and chloe decided to share burgers and churros while clara had a waffle and vanilla gelato.

portobello burger and pork steak burger 
did not really enjoy the pork steak burger because I thought it was pretty fatty and it was just too overwhelming but the meat was pretty soft !! the portobello burger was just so good ;; the mushroom was so yummy and the sauce was nice too ; will surely eat that the next time

waffles w vanilla gelato 
idk why this photo turned out so blur -_- churroooooooos
finally had churros but I thought the churros didn't really have enough sugar and I didn't really like the sauces given so me and chloe had asked for more sugar hahhaa and it tasted really really much more better with that extra sugar !!

omg my eyes are so small I cant even
selca before leaving the park cause there was nice scenery haha
after that we then headed back to amk hub and walked around hahha we then went to the arcade to play abit omg such a fail hahaha 

and yay for my new $4 watch from taka hahaha super happy I got the pink one from the toy machine thing hehe

aint it so cute hehe why does my hand turn out so black here

emergency couple fanmeet (*✧×✧*)

so many events had happened this past week and I just want to put all that aside and talk about how I managed to release all those stress by attending the emergency couple fanmeet !!!

not going to make any more further comments regarding kris and all because currently everything is so messed up.

oh wells ; the emergency couple fanmeet was on friday (16/05). It was super last minute cause I only got told that Natasha had free tickets on the day itself. Was really happy to be able to spend time with elle and release all that stress esp since it was the day after the entire kris fiasco and friday was technically what I term as my last paper for prelims wuhu.

the fanmeet was held at kallang theatre which I actually didn't know was the building beside kallang leisure mall hahaha even tho I have been to stadium so many times.orz

got complimentary tickets from esther's mom hehehe

my fingers are in such an awkward position OTL
our tickets weren't really good but at least we managed to be able to go !!

went to have 'dinner' but it was actually basically eating desserts then we just headed back to the theatre.

selfies many many while waiting for the show to start ^^
view from our original seats
was super far so we had moved towards the more front seats that were pretty empty ;;

jihyo is super cute and funny; super warm towards all her fans and of course her sense of humor was just so perfect/ thought her outfit was really pretty.

eventho choi jinhyuk is handsome but just not my type of guy I would like and I have yet to watch emergency couple !!! hahaha was planning to watch it after prelims ; the show seems really really good by the small clips they played during the fanmeet and I will be looking forward to watch it hehehe.


had really such a great time with elle !! been so long since we have hanged out and even eating silently is such a comfortable silence ^^ hehehe

omnoms ٩꒰。•‿•。꒱۶

havent blogged for a while and I finally have stuff to blog about which is why I am doing this up ;; although like it's prelims next week I still have no mood to study and just packing and filing all my notes and ws together is already driving me crazy since I throw all my stuff everywhere.

it was labour day yesterday, and because I have tuition, my parents told me to go w them to star vista while my mom has an appt because the timings were really close;; bubu tagged along although my mom disagreed hahaha so my dad abandoned me and bubu to walk ard at star vista so we just went to the k-mart and got some snacks and pororo yakult and sat at the grandstands

bubu taking selfies w my phone in the car hehehe
when my dad finally came, we decided on going to this cafe(?) orz ; I ordered a wagyu beef sandwich thing + the set meal of iced latte and a chicken soup or smth ; the sandwich was so so good ;; although I shared w my mom cause I knew I could not finish it since I had just tightened my braces the prev day. The latte was also super nice


Had a study skills workshop today and they said that eating junk food will prevent depression and anxiety !! which is good and another excuse to eat hahaha'

I have been constantly mentioning to chloe I want to eat waffles w ice cream but we never ever went to the cafe at kovan!!! so today we finally decided to go w sarah seah and isabel

It is the hatter street cafe ;; it has many great reviews for its waffles so why not !!

the place is kinda small and packed but we still managed to get a seat and we ordered a waffle w vanilla ice cream + salted caramel sauce ; although it is kinda known for the pandan one hahaha


isabel's idk what orx
Walked over to heartland mall after calling my dad and he says he will pick me up in 30 mins since he is still at novena waiting at the hospital w bubu for the specialist so I went to get new pens and walk around aimlessly. and then he tells me to go orchard... and I almost died carrying so much stuff cause I brought back most of my books to study for prelims next week ;-;

bought a few donuts from krispy kreme before heading over to isetan scotts to meet 'em and still have to wait for the doc to come zzzzzzz I almost immediately fell asleep in the car too tired and i'm totally tired now; time to sleep and study tmr TTTTTTTT

hope this last minute studying pays off //sobs//
