Back here for updates!!!
11th July 2012 - Graduation Day.
Woke up early in the morning, bathe and got prepared to leave house to go university town.
Luckily my bro was free to fetch me to school because I had alot of stuff to carry to sch!
Gown + Mortar Board, heels for the ceremony in the afternoon, tripod stand, polaroid camera + 4 packets of film, and the usual bag of stuff like water bottle etc etc. Plus I was wearing formal with skirt so THANKS BRO.
So I thought I was already late because we meet 1030am at UTown, but I was the earliest (ok excluding my bf who's so nice to be the photographer for us that day)!
And I received a bouquet of sunflower from him =) so happy hehe.

So nothing to do during the wait, take pictures! =D
Then we went in to the food court because 1stly it has aircon, 2ndly I didn't have time to eat breakfast in the morning.
Then maggie came, followed by wendy and sinyi.
So ended up we started taking at around 11 plus >.<
Oh well, overall the photo taking was alright =)

SO, since started late, we ended late, and I had a quick lunch at the food court before heading to UCC to prepare for the ceremony.
First thing I reach was to go to robing room and wore my gown, and mortar board.
Then deposited my stuff at some counter with the help of bf.
And saw my family before they went in to the hall, and then for the 1st time, my sis and bro saw my bf!!!! lol. ok awkward atmosphere but nvm that.
So went into the hall, and ceremony started =)
Was rather nervous and excited, especially the moment on stage.
I just had this proud feeling, hey I've graduated.
Felt really happy.
And then after the ceremony ended, it was a round of phototaking with friends and family.
And receiving small gifts and flowers.
Thanks my dear, joseph, sinyi/wendy for the sunflowers, shihui for the cupcake and lollipop, sinyi/wendy for the small cards and owl, sis for the graduation tortoise. =D
Kind of regretted that I didnt get a chance to take a group shot with my stats clique. =(
'cus while I was with some, others were not there, and when I wasnt there (I'm the only one =( ), they took some tgt.
But since it's over so nothing I can do right!
Then it's dinner with family after everyone left.
So since FOS has this reunion thingy at LT27 there, so decided to go check it out, so I went back to Science Fac to take pictures.

 But nobody was there so I guess everything ended.
Then bro came back to fetch me and sis over to the west coast restaurant for dinner.
And dinner treat by my mum's younger brother and received a gift from them =)
So end of day!

22th July 2012 - MY Birthday =D
Went Gardens By The Bay (GBTB).

Me stupidly go wear high wedges there lol.
Made my feet so pain lah!

Anyway, meet bf at northpoint to have lunch. Ate subway. =)
Then slowly made our way over to bayfront station.
So walked abit around MBS, found their ice skating rink.

It was smaller than expected, and it's not on real ice. So it didnt looked as fun.
Then walked over to GBTB.

Nothing much special, besides looking at plants and flowers.

 Well I guess you need to pay to have a better experience there.
Plus it wasn't well maintained because at some parts, the soil was exposed, and it wasn't really very pretty.
Maybe more time is needed for the plants to be growing more naturally.
Oh and did I mention some were withering too.
Overall it was still a great walk though! =)
Tried the white rose flavoured icecream from the souvenir shop.
And tasted like bandung!!! without the pink colour because it's WHITE rose. lol.

Then headed to town for dinner @ Paradise Inn.

Food's not bad, but too expensive though.
Thanks my dear for the dinner =)))
And went home after dinner...

For the rest of the days in between, nothing much, just looking for jobs, going out randomly and yup.
That's all.
Boring life hor, I know!!!!
Anyway, last zumba class was on 14th July, and it was another perspiring session. lol.

Grad lo!

Finally officially graduated with the commencement ceremony yesterday.
It was rather exciting, chaotic, and somewhat great!
Though there are still a little 遗憾 ha.
oh wells.
Will blog again when I have all the photos =)
And now, job searching!!!!
(My mum has been telling me now graduate liao need to find job alr and no more sch for me. lol no hint of the 'slowly find job' advise hahaha.)

有的没的

Been buying random stuff when I go out recently.
Seriously. LOL.
Got some origami papers with strips/polka dots from Daiso 2 days ago.
Was walking around and because they were too atractive, and I thought it would be great for using it to decorate cards, I bought them.
After paying, I was like, "great, why did I buy this for?"
OH WELLS.
Today, was also walking around, so headed to popular and guess what I bought?
Card holder!
It's not to hold name cards though, it's for polariods. hehe.
Well, it's hard to find a polaroid album outside, and I don't really shop online.
So the next best choice is to buy a card holder album, since the size fits perfectly.
Spent quite a bit of time there choosing the design.
Shall take loads and lots of polariods during commencement day.

Oh commencement.
Mixed feelings I would say.
Happy that I'm indeed officially graduating.
The day where I wear the academic gown and the mortar board.
Signifies the long education path (15 years!!!) I took and completed it.
On the contrary, the fact that I'm entering into the reality freaks me out quite a little.
Perhaps I would say I'm pretty lucky that my education years are smooth sailing - - no bullies encountered, no severe punishments, no major setbacks.
And now I've ended my education (well not including the possibility of upgrading myself along the way), it seems like I'll be entering the more cruel side of life.
Been hearing the 'adults' saying the bad side of working life.
The kinds of weird people you'll meet, the harder to get true friendships, the dog-eat-dog environment.
YES the kind of UNCERTAINTY again.
I know, it's this kind of uncertainess that's making everything so exciting.
But I just can't help getting irritated, fustrated and annoyed by the fact that I don't see my future anywhere.
Things I like to do can't bring me the income that I want.
Doing handicrafts, sports, sing, bake etc .
Perhaps not now. I need a stable decent job.
Maybe deep down, I want to be a housewife like my mum, staying at home, taking care of kids and cooking for my husband. LOL.
Somehow, this seems to be a lazy way out.
Then again if I want to be a housewife, I wouldn't study so much in the first place, and seeing how kids can be annoying with their loud (YES LOUD) voice, it's scaring me off to find a job outside.
AH contradicting!!!

well, it's time for bed.
goodnights! <3

July is here!!!

July is here and still, no job found yet.
To be exact, only went for 1 interview, since after sch semester ends.
Is it because I didn't send out enough, or is the competition too strong, or I'm just lacking in luck now?
Spent the whole afternoon browsing job search websites and not a single one that I can apply.
Either the requirements doesn't match, or it's the job scope that I don't like.
And then, interviews are really scary.
Ah well, no use ranting here anyway.
I need a job, seriously.

Anyway, july's here!!!
My birthday month hehe =D
Always anticipating, but I guess it's the time where I do feel the most disappointed.
Contradicting huh.
Shall not say much about it.
As I grow, I will learn to let go.
Let go of expectations, so I'll live happier.
But then again, shouldn't we hold on to what we believe?
Ah, complicated life.
But then again, it depends on how we want to live our life right, simple or complicated?
It all boils down to how you view things, people, situations and problems around you.
Sometimes, I'm just pure stubbon. (Maybe because I'm born in the year of horse? Lol)

Zumba class last sat was better than the first. Maybe because I'm starting to get used to it.
Then squash yesterday made my whole body ache like don't know what.
But I'm glad I'm starting to move around and not coop myself in the house all day long.
OK it's good to stay home, enjoying some alone time, but not with a 6 month old baby crying every now and then, or my mum asking me to do stuff when she see me so free slacking and nua-ing everywhere.
Sometimes, I just don't feel like staying at home.
I want to find a secret hiding place. You know, like in the movies/dramas, the female lead always has her own hiding place that she can emo at.
HA I'm watching too much dramas.
But it would be great to have such a place.
A place that I can be myself. Maybe I've found one.
A place in someone's heart where I can be myself (at least I think I am).
