You lift my heart up when the rest of me is down.

Cheers to the end of yet another hectic week! However, this must have been the best week so far, and I am happy! :D

(Ripped from chibird.tumblr.com)

Day 12:

Attended a Research Programme (RP) myself because lazy Amanda was just too lazy to come to school. But I'm glad that I met two kind souls whom entertained me for ten minutes before the start of the RP (because we were all too early LOL) :D

Then went for my GES1003 lecture a tad too early so I started reading my Malay Studies Chapter 3 notes. Lecture ended interestingly because there were more videos than content, but I was too tired and I didn't even talk much to Jinyi. Lmao! Why can't they have webcast for this?! It is stupid to go to school just for 2hours arghs. :3

Day 13:

EL1101E lecture sucked because I totally caught no balls. But then again, Hexuan was commenting that since when I catch balls LOLOL! :/ Slap him arhs!

After which, I had my second intense GES1003 group discussion (without Rich again) at the Science block (pats myself on my back for not losing my way). But the discussion was fruitful and we finally assigned roles and everything (cheers to progress)! :D

Then met up with my dearly missed O'weekers Gladys, Minghan and Chenhui for lunch (only saw Rachel and Joey for awhile because they were rushing for tutorials), before rushing for archery with Amanda after her tutorial. I think we became closer with our archery senior/coach, and I'm happy. But he ought to stop laughing/bullying me. I did something embarrassing! :3

Day 14:

Attended a super early session of RP and met Huixia by coincidence. (: Complained to her about my stupid PL1101E tutorial and we just chatted about life. We need to meetup over lunch soon omg!

Went for a nice buffet lunch with my mama after her health checkup @ Chilli Padi Nonya Cafe, located beside the NUS Sheares Hall. Learnt a vital lesson that day as well: we should not trust the GPS wholeheartedly. We walked what resembles a mountaineous trail complete with slopes and stairs, before realising that we can just walk straight. T.T Seriously. Good exercise before the buffet because then we can stuff ourselves more. LOL! (:

(Very clean and sparkling)

(Filled with Nonya decorations)

(A beautuful place)

(Curry chicken and lontong)

(Laksa and meesiam)

There ain't much selections, but the food is undoubtedly delicious. I love the beef rendang and meesiam especially. :D

(Wide variety of dessert!)

(And my favourite)

We stuff ourselves silly. Hahahahas! (: Nonya food are generally on the expensive side, but this cafe's buffet lunch is only $19.75 nett. Good deal! (Y)

After which I went for our very first Project Embrace meeting along with Amanda with mixed feelings. :/ Excited because it is my first project, yet finds it burdensome at the same time. Lmao!

Didn't contribute/talk at all because I am 慢热 towards people, and also because they are all older than us (which made it even more intimidating, especially since I have absolute zero experience in planning). But I have to admit that I am full of admiration towards Longyuan because he burnt midnight oil to do out our proposal and it was as detailed as hell. I am impressed. (Y) If only I have such people as my project mates...

Day 15:

Longest day ever with 5 hours of lessons and plenty of RP that day :/ Perhaps next time I'll consider pon-ing the MS1102E lecture since it is webcasted and I can go home earlier. Lmao!

My EL1101E tutor is being cute again (but I don't think she makes a very good tutor though) except for the fact that her lessons are entertaining and she really tried her best, but still...

Day 16:

It's Friday, Friday! *cues Rebecca Black's Friday* Cleared 3 RPs today and gotten 4 points, ohyeahs baby achievmentunlocked! Go yanqi go! You can do this! :DD

Attended PL2131 computer research finding session organised by the CLB as well and met Marcus by surprise. Thankfully it was only him and not the entire psych OG. /heaved a sigh of relief/


People say university students have to learn to balance the three S - social life, study and sleep. This week I spent too much time on my social life. Next week I will twist it back to one-third each. Come'on, yanqi can do this!


We go out on our own.
It's a big bad world outside.
Carrying our dreams and all that they mean.
Trying to make it all worthwhile.
