Dancing bears, painted wings.
Things I almost remember.
And a song someone sings,
Once upon a December.Recently, I've been thinking alot about my past.
I don't know why.
And sometimes..
Don't you just wonder..
Where all them old friends and ex-es went to?
How they moved on / progressed in life?
Where they are now?
I was thinking about all these things..
And most of the time, I was sad when I looked back.
I keep thinking..
"
If I / whoever else had acted in another way, things would have been so different."
And yet on the other hand,
I wish I could wipe it all away and make it a clean slate.
Make my
mind a clean slate.
And everytime I see pictures of games I used to play,
or old friends who are long gone from my life,
I cringe. Really badly.And then I quickly exit from that page before my memories return.
I guess now that I think about it,
since I
cringe,
I must be quite unhappy that I went through all that.
Or maybe it's because everything turned out to be a waste of time.
But hey,
I learned valuable life values along the way.
So once again, hmmmm.
Maybe going through all that isn't so bad after all.
How does someone start a post with a );
and end it with a
:) on her face?
:)!!

Hello guys!
I've been draining my creativity for the past couple of days.
Christmas is coming,
and I hope to finish all of my Christmas cards as soon as possible!
[At least 30 cards.. No mean feat, I must say!]
And so, I'm starting soon!
Anyway,
for some reason,
today's been really
artsy.
I don't know why!
Don't believe me?
Wait and see! :O
[Note: Not in chronological order.]
For starters,
I went shopping today! :D
And I'm really really happy with my find!
These are the brand new art materials I got!
Now I can make more designs! Yayyy :D
*happy dance*
And then we had dessert..
..Even our desserts [ my mum and mine ] were Art! :D
See what I mean now?
And when I got home..
I made beanbags with my aunt for an upcoming carnival event!
[*cough* I didn't sew.. I only filled them up..
BUT I HELPED. DON'T JUDGE ME.]
And I made two Birthday cards this week!
One for my friend, other for my Dad. :)
This is the first one..
I think I got a little bit better.
What do you think? :)
Well!
That's pretty much it for now!
Have a great week,
eat fruit,
be well,
and out!

Hello!
I got my results back today! :D
And here they are!
Financial Accounting - A
Business Communication - B
Business Statistics - AAnd I'm really amazed that I did so well because..
I thought I would fail!
Lemme tell you a short story.
I barely paid any attention in class this semester.
And I didn't study for Business Statistics at all.
So the day before the exam,
I panicked.
I managed to go through 8 chapters that day, but all my answers to the practice questions were wrong!
So I was obviously worried...
I finished the last 2 chapters on the way to the exam hall the next morning..
And I was feeling very ill.
Well I prayed..
"
Lord, you know I don't have a photographic memory. I can't do this so if it comes out.. Please help me!!"
[Note: I was thoroughly prepared to call my mum and tell her that I was sorry, I tried my best. (Sheesh. I sound like a doctor.) ]
During the paper, I was relieved to be able to do most of the questions.
But when I went to the last question.. [20 marks!!]
Well, it needed knowledge from the last two chapters I studied.
I had no idea how to do it so I prayed.
"
Hey Lord, uhm.. Remember I prayed before bout these two chapters? Yeah.. I need them and I don't know how to do them! >__< *panics a little on the inside* So PLEASE, help me!"
And right after that, images of the slides flashed through my mind.
And He showed me the answers to the questions given in the slides, and all I had to do was apply the same methods into my exam questions.
Talk about Tuition Teachers being God-sent help! :D
I got it straight from HQ!Lame jokes aside,
I really am very grateful for His help.
That's why..
ALL GLORY GOES TO GOD FOR MY RESULTS!
THANK YOU GOD! <3And none of the credit goes to me. :)

Hello!
I baked the cake!
But before I write anything else..
Disclaimer: It's nothing spectacular so leave before you get cheated of your couple of minutes worth of life spent on reading this.Basically, I tried to make a vanilla sponge cake with strawberry and cream.
Tried.I'll give you a last chance to back out.
......
......
......
Alright!
Let's get started then.
Unfortunately, this is the only photo I've got of the process.
Don't mind me. :)
And while waiting for the cake to bake..
Let's distract ourselves with more irrelevant pictures shall we?
Enter Truffle, 4 years of age.
Silky Terrier, very hairy, as you can see.
And this is my one and only nephew,
Aidan!
Isn't he adorable? And photogenic, too!
Today is actually my first time seeing him..
That's why I made the cake, to celebrate! :D
WOOF.Alright! My Chicken Timer says it's done!
Let's see the results..
Tadah!
As I've said before.. It's not really spectacular.
And it's not really supposed to look like that.
But well.. That's the best I could do to salvage it.
Actually, most of the work goes to Caleb and Aunt Thess.
So thank you so much for all your help!
I really really appreciate it!
..But next time? I'm just gonna buy my cakes from Emi.

*Refers to previous post*
Well!
Remember how I said I was busy?
Yeah.
I just realised today that I have this uncanny knack of slotting activities into my schedule, hence making it impossible to do everything.
I don't know how.
Maybe it's because I just can't say no. Or something....
Sometimes things just don't go the way they should,
and I find myself sitting at home doing NOTHING when I could have done something because some people backed out at the last moment.
Or.. Falling ill just because I'm too busy. ):
I really need to learn time management.Well!
On a brighter note, I got a hair cut today! :D
And tomorrow's the Ball. <3
So I get to wear a pretty gown.
*extremely happy*
Now don't get me wrong.
I'm not some psycho who prances around in summer dresses.
Okay I would like that but I don't have any.
But that's not the point.
Point is,
the last time I went to a Ball was ...
Last year November.
And I can't wear gowns daily because my life isn't glamorous and the like.
Sides, it's fun to do it once in awhile..
Hence the excitement. :)
..I seriously don't know why I had to put you through that.
Hopefully everything goes as planned tomorrow!
And Thursday.
And Friday.
Maybe I'll bake a cake.
Don't you just love Baby Showers? :D
What do you think of a vanilla sponge cake with strawberries and cream in between?
I think that's heavenly.
Hopefully I'll be able to bake one just like Emi's! :D
Moi moi! <3

Hello!
Haven't written anything in a couple of days.. I know.
I'm usually busy during my weekends.
I look at my calender and strike the rest of my life's weekends off.
What am I doing?
Well, my friend.
I'm in church!
And I love every minute of it!Not afraid to share it too.
It's sooo exciting!
No, my church doesn't do weird stuff that make teenagers excited.It's just that..
Every time they have a service, MAN!
You just feel like dancing, you know?
Or hopping, or bouncing.
Whichever works for you.
Either that or a feeling of peace / warmth overwhelms you..
Who wouldn't like that?
Of course, as with each individual, it works differently.
For all I know.. Somewhere out there, someone could feel snow gently drifting down...But for that, I usually suggest turning the thermostat up.[I'm only joking.]
;)
*happy feeling at the moment*
Anyway,
last Thursday and Friday..
I went rollerblading!
Different parks for different days!
And now, I know what I must seem like now..
Some '
pro' at blading.
Unfortunately.. No I'm not.
But one day.. I will be '
pro' enough to skate at a speed that's faster than an average human's walking pace. ONE DAY!!!
Something interesting I saw on my way to the park.
Who knew that Wild Chickens even existed anymore?
I certainly didn't.
We have a horse ranch in one of the parks.
How cool is that?
Pity it's too small...
Maybe that's why they're all mostly ponies. ;)
Right.
And this Sunday was actually the SECOND time I was serving as a Projectionist!
And
I. AM. LOVING. IT.It's such an interesting job!
I manage the slides and search for verses and stuff.
I really really like it! :)
Moving on,
I realised that I have far too many activities to do this holiday..
I don't know how on earth can I possibly accomplish all / keep them up at this rate...
I should have a "
Things I need to do" column.
Examples of things I need to do: Flower arrangement classes, guitar practising, helping out my cousin, formal dinners, exercising and many other things.
And I KNOW that many of these things [actually all], I take it upon myself as it's my DUTY / something I wanna do but still...
And sides, I still feel like I'm not maximising my time yet.
Like, that would only happen when I'm getting 4 hours of sleep and the rest of the 20 hours are spent on doing something useful.
Well.
I've been blabbering for quite some time now.
The result of not blogging for 4 days.
I should go.
Moi moi.
:)

Just a short
horrifying note.
Well, I was brushing my teeth just.
When, I realised that..
MY TOOTHBRUSH DOESN'T REACH THE END OF MY TEETH.
I TRIED. SEVERAL TIMES.BRUSH BRUSH BRUSHIT DOES NOT GET TO THE END.And then I realised,
it's only the wisdom tooth it's not reaching.
..It's probably wasting the rest of my teeth now.
I should get it plucked soon.
Ouch. );

Well.
I want to post this because..
Basically here's the thing.
Blogger.com has a new tab. And it's called
Stats.
So basically.. You click it and you see who views your website...
At what time.. From which country they hail from..
I know. A little creepy.
But being an inquisitive child,
I clicked it.
And lo and behold!
Guess what?
Other people are actually viewing this apart from myself!
Now don't get me wrong.
I honestly thought that no one other than me, myself and I actually reads this!
Of course people would say..
"Don't be daft. You're posting something on the INTERNET."I know..
But I tried checking myself up on Google and stuff.
I tried all the links and anything that's related to me..
And guess what?
I couldn't find myself!
Well I only clicked 3 pages max on Google search.
BUT STILL.
Even when I'm looking for myself, I can't find me!So.. I thought I was tucked into a safe corner of the Internet..
But I guess not.
I'm only joking.
Of course if it's on the Internet, it's for everyone to read.
And even if my views were only there
because you guys accidentally clicked it,
went
Opps, quickly backspaced while it was still a white loading screen..
You did view my blog, even for a moment.
So I just wanna say..
Regardless of whether you find me boring or.. Well, anything other than boring.
I still wanna thank you.
*bows deeply*
Sheesh.
And people would think I got like eight million views or something.
I overreact too much.
But I still love me. :)

When I look at You, I see forgiveness,
I see the truth.
You love me for who I am,
Like the stars hold the moon.
Right there they belong,
And I know I'm not alone.. God.
Don't you know you're beautiful?
