Recently I've outdone myself with the "level of clumsiness" and the amount of cuts and bashes I have accidentally inflicted on myself. For example, I ran for the lift and pressed the button, somehow I don't know how, I managed to get a deep gash on my thumb. It's so deep I can see the flesh :O
And just yesterday, I banged my head on the hand-dryer in the toilet because I bent down to put down my bag and hit it right smack in the middle. I was so lucky that it was spoilt if not I may have gotten electrocuted or have my hair on fire and stuff of that sort.
I'm slightly scared and worried of what might happen to me since I'm clearly on the streak of bad luck. And I sincerely hope that all this clumsy,weak,frail shit will stop.

I find it quite so amazing that my mum and her secondary friends still meet up every single chinese new year, without fail. After so many years away from school, despite their own busy lives, everyone makes the effort to come together and catch-up and update each others' on their lives, constantly reminiscing old times spent together and saying all the "do you remember"s.
This makes me wonder if my friends and I would still meet up after school has ended, especially in university where everyone gets so busy and have so many circles of friends.
Beautiful mothers and wives
After the gathering I went over to Vanessa's house to do some work together since we both had a lot of home work to rush through. Life of JC student. During that time I was feeling fat and unfit because I was struggling with pe. I mean, my first 2.4 timing of the year was 15.50 something I think! It's so horrifyingly slow. So I was determined to pull up that scrawny number and of course to get back in shape.
Initially we wanted to run in the evening but then there was such a huge sudden downpour! I saw those tiny people (from vanessa's room) scrambling for shelter hahaha abit mean to laugh but it's too hilarious. Schadenfreude: Take pleasure from other's misfortunes. Fortunately the rain stopped and we ran to run later in the night. I didn't bring any running attire to her house so she lent me everything, from shirt, shorts, socks, shoes to even the hairband LOL. So glad to have such a friend in my life who doesn't care that I sweat in her clothes haha. Obviously I will get it washed before returning so please don't accuse me of being unhygienic. And auntie siewkee is too nice and caring, offer me ice cream, offer me dinner, like my second mum. So thankful that I have them in my life :)
We went all the way to ITE college west because they have a running track there which is relatively new compared to the one at cck stadium. The flood lights weren't switched on so it was dark. But I like it like that. It's good that nobody can see me run and sweat like a pig and pant like a dog. It's better this way to be "concealed". The best thing was that it was cooling as though we were possibly surrounded by trees. I ran 11 rounds that night wooaahhhh. Shocked at myself.
We made plans to run every week after that but ever since that week we've both been either busy/unfit for physical exercise. Hopefully this week will work out!
Here's my family lou-hei-ing! wish success and good health and good wishes etc etc etc for everyone :D
p.s. you got to watch "you who came from the stars" if you haven't! Kim Soo Hyun <3 <3

Here I am blogging instead of studying for the upcoming test. I'm on a roll. Since I haven't blogged in a while, I might as well take this time to draft out everything once and for all.
For every day during the cny holidays, I've been out and running, busy busy bee. I'm not complaining because I had fun :)
初二 started at Mag's house. Lucky we all stay around the same area so it was super near and I could sleep in that little bit more. Unfortunately, for Jenny who lives all the way in town, she had to wake up earlier haha.
Isn't it ironic how the person who lives the nearest to the gathering point, turns up being late, without fail? hahaha no logic behind that statement but it's such a common phenomenon. Siewyeng lives just next block but she was late too lol
Reliving our childhood memories playing the XBOX and getting all hyped up over the game.
With a splash of sunlight streaked across her face
Discussing games tactics and strategies to win! We played this fighting game which I obviously was lousy at because I couldn't see where I (the game character) was going and kept falling into poison pool/getting whacked by the others/getting spiked and losing lives. Gave up after awhile...
I prefer playing those pure one-on-one fighting or those mission games e.g. street fighters or metal slug! awww miss those days when I would play it at home with my bro and cousins
Bring it on!
HAHAHA we were all laughing at our own silly mistakes during the games
Our master 师傅 aka Mag's younger brother who if his gameplay had a grade, he would score A*****. He even dug out this game manual (武林秘方?? Idk what it's called) with all the combo moves for us to try hahaha too cute!

The funny thing about this photo was that we were standing in the correct order: tall to taller and back to tall. hehe love this photo <3
p.s. mag's father is such a joker! He was cracking all these lame jokes here and there. Even commented by saying I must be good at taking selfies cos I'm pres of photog club LOL
Cny was the perfect opportunity to wear this bright yellow dress! I bought this dress awhile ago but couldn't find the right occasion to wear it because it's quite bright, unlike what I usually wear (I love wearing whites btw), kind of attracts attention which I'm not that fond of.
Rach left first because she had to go visiting while the rest of us stayed to play mahjong! The more I stared at those tiles, the more I craved for salmon! Don't they look exactly like salmon sashimi sushi??? Credits to mag's dad who shot us playing mahjong. This game further proves that I'm unlucky in mahjong cos I always always don't have a "tai" to win.
I left for my grandma's house after that.
Stupid me forgot that this pair of heels will give me blisters as it's quite new, and didn't put on plasters when I left the house. In the end, I really had awful awful blisters and couldn't walk properly cos the blisters broke. Damn. Took out my shoes to walk from here on cos it hurts like a bitch.
Cousins unite! I cannot emphasis what a coincidence it was that we all happened to be wearing yellow while our half-cousins were all wearing red! Great minds think alike?
Bad blood in the older generations are not our problems and we, being the new generation, will not let any of those affect us. We live in the present.
It's funny how when we are older, we are more open and talk more to each other. I remember how in the past, we didn't really talk together as we only saw each other once a year. But now, we really cherish this times we have together as one big family. Just us kids hanging out, talking and gossiping. It's great, really :)
Family portraits! Looking at my mum's height, I'm sure you can tell where I get my petite size from.
Such a coincidence that we were mainly wearing yellow! Even my grandma! I tried telling her that but she didn't really get what I was trying to say lol.
