tlg is 26!! finally we have a really nice family photo and i created a unique card :p (thank god for the website actually haha!)
ini laogong busy workingg even on the bdayy ~
what a reliable dude :D
earning money to feed the fat moi
i count knowing these girls as one of the best things that ever happened to me.
from spending time tgt everyday in sch for 2 years to the half-yearly meet-ups we have now, the time we see each other + talking on whatsapp has definitely dwindled drastically.
but one thing our dinner date today reminded me of, is the fact tht it's something worth celebrating (lol in some twisted sense). because that means no guy/friend is giving me so much trouble n heartache such tht i have to keep ranting in the chat. HAHAHAH.
well done TLG, you've automatically entered their good books even though i provide limited info on you (Y)
yesterday was a fairytale :D
i love seeing tlg enjoying himself, with erm, all the free treats as well .
HAHAH
capped off an entire week of meeting people! :D noticed an overdose of cold stuff lately? hahaha.
but i feel like my worries are coming back...im sorry that im disinterested for the past few months t.t
searching for goals n life directions is a bumpy ride..

我没忘了.
祝你生日快乐 ~
希望在工作,家庭和感情里你还是幸福的 (:
还有谢谢, 对不起
maybe i take photos in jest because i need to prove to ppl tht im not only rotting away at home (even though thats what my speech seems to suggest)...
i do go out and do things.
i just dont take photos of everything n post them up.
i have work to do as well.
doing bible study and planning a tour may not sound like normal work, but it still requires time and effort.
it's not that i dont want to make myself even more busy, but lately i find it a smack in the face when opportunities show up too late.
why is it tht my company suddenly wants to hire a HR intern.
why is it tht the school's aiesec signup form doesnt work,but ive just found out tht the one at the general website does.
why is it tht when i googled all of these in march/apr, they nvr show up until now.
and it's already midjune lol.
i really wonder why my eyes were made blind to accessing these.
i feel quite upset tht ive missed those opportunities to do something 'more productive' during this break.
just ytd, i found out tht taking special sem is essentially free if i meet certain conditions.
sigh.
too late to sign up for part 2 of special sem as well.
what do all these missed opportunities serve to do for me? more time to take a break and reflect?
i appreciate that.
but is it just me?
Pasta.Meat.Sauce. cafe @ East village!
we spent only $16nett altogether (free truffle fries for every 2 pastas ordered on saturday!)
teehee.
tasty and belly-filling.
friendly staff.
:D
i think it would be more popular if not for the location and lack of publicity (?). it's a really small and minimalist place haha.
if i lived in the east i might just head there every month ! (cant wait to move out of yishun/the north !!!!! arghhhhh)
the spirit to serve has been ignited in me once again...
looking at the sign-up forms and recent conversations/happenings, i realised how lonely this journey can be.. when i have to volunteer or join whatever stuff alone, simply because i cant seem to find others in my circle who share the same heart and enthusiasm.
or perhaps they really dont have the time...
to be honest im conflicted between giving away my time for free vs for monetary rewards. because of opportunity costs.
when i look at my fellow year 2s doing internships this summer break, sometimes i wonder if spending time volunteering, organising a school event and being active in nav is making me lose sight of the long term... am i being unproductive /unwise in how i spend my break?
it's terrifying when wr asked me 'what things will feed you and give you a job next time?'
so is denying myself = giving up an upper middle income lifestyle ? O.o (honest question haha)
my choice would be simple if i didnt have to feel accountable to people..
sometimes i just need to learn to cut some strings. or to let go of some burdens..maybe life would be more liveable then (: and serving would be worry-free.
^thats how i view a prosperous and well-lived life.
i hope that God will grant me such grace.
sidenote: found this really meaningful because even though im separated from everyone, thankyou for being there for me. (even though we are so so different and i only have my love and loyalty to offer you. thankyou for not despising it, friend. )
helloo to our food babies ~
i like how we always fool around like kids
ive not received a single 21st bday invite till now... hahaha!
dont tell me this will also happen when im in my mid to late twenties and no one else is getting engaged/married .. O.O O.O
am i really growing up? o.o
