life's all good

hello!!!!!! :) just thought I'd do a quick update on my life before I head to bed! Throwback to the last day of my MYES which was a pleasant one :)) Con, Stacey, Mat & I decided to go for lunch together to 'celebrate' the end of our MYEs and we settled for lunch at the owl café at bedok point!

we randomly chanced upon this café while making our way to the korean BBQ store where we were supposedly to have our lunch at hehe

"Owl Café is the first Straits Asian café in Singapore"

And I must say they serve really unique & delectable dishes with very very distinct taste!!!
E.g. the soft shell crab spaghetti with chilli crab sauce, pasta with laksa sauce etc :)

Mine was the one with the laksa sauce hehe yum

We shared a plate of Crispy Duck Spring Onion Prata which was freaking good!!!!! And we also shared 2 bowls of desserts, I can't remember the name exactly but the chendol was to die for!!!!!!!!!!! *.* the lady who served us was so friendly and ahh my experience there was just amazing hehe I would go back there for a meal any time :))

Rushed over to changi city point to get a new pair of running shoes!!!! I've been contemplating whether to get it for quite some time and I'm glad I finally did :)

(I swear the only colour I get for my running shoes is pink HAHA)

Rushed back home to change before coming out to meet some of my favourite people to watch transformers, have dinner & do a quick catch up :) transformers wasn't that great, was very fidgety halfway through the movie cause the movie was way too long for me!!! (~3 hours)

settled for dinner at a ramen place that just opened in tampines mall, it was the same one I went to at bedok with sherman the previous time and yay I'm so happy they opened one here!!! :) we were being a total public nuisance but it's ok, I had such a great laugh over dinner hehe

so nice seeing them that night :))

Had CLIC camp the next day and I woke up earlier just to dye my hair a darker colour bc I didn't want to get into any trouble and I did the stupidest thing EVER. Ok if you've ever tried dyeing your hair before, you'll know that you have to pour the hair colourant into a bottle of mixture before colouring your hair right????? I was so blur I poured the hair conditioner instead and spent (wasted) 1 hour of my time trying to colour my hair only to realise I poured in the wrong packet into the bottle :-( thank goodness I have an extra packet of hair dye at home but I had to rush bc I was runnin' late!!! did manage to dye my hair but I didn't manage to leave it on my hair for long :-( I was so rush and panicky because I was so afraid I was gonna be late!! (I wasn't) haha ok back to clic camp!!!
//
I was initially quite reluctant to go because MYEs just ended and I really wanted to rest for the long weekend but after going through 4 days, I have absolutely no regrets going for this camp :) I met the most amazing group of people there plus had really nice facilitators (Chong Kiat & Sarah) and also our Coach from Adam Khoo (Fadz)!!! they're all extremely lovely people and I wouldn't go into much details of the camp but all I can say is the camp is indeed meaningful + unforgettable :-) I'm so thankful to have the opportunity to attend this camp & I had a really good 4 days!!!!!!

The camp started off with an amazing race where he had to travel all around Singapore to complete missions & obtain Victorian Secrets!!! Our group focused mainly on town area :)20140715-231523-83723376.jpg

Spent our night at Sembawang Camp and we slept in dorms!!!! It was so comfy given that it's a camp :-) oh and we played some games that night and the ceiling suddenly fell off and it landed on my head :-( the impact was so big & but thankfully I was fine!!!!!

Painted our face in the morning before heading out to continue our Amazing Race!!

Our end point was at East Coast Park where we had some mentally/physically session that lasted for a few hours! It was tough but I'm so happy that we completed the challenge as a batch :))

Sherman rode to east coast park that night just to pass me his portable charger even though he was watching World Cup halfway & it was past midnight. So grateful and blessed to have a boyfriend who would do anything for me 😭❤️ Slept in tents that night and I slept surprisingly well!! (ODAC lifestyle)

Headed back to school in the morning to shower before starting on our CIP! Our group was tasked to spread awareness of foreign workers in Singapore and after spending our morning at Lucky Plaza interviewing and getting to know the foreign workers, we came up with a campaign called #projectftw (for the workers)!!! what we did was to go around somerset area asking random people to pen down their appreciation for the foreign workers + asked the foreign workers to write down what makes them happy :)) it was such a meaningful activity!!! feel free to check it out on our instagram page!!

Clic camp ended on Monday and i was so tired i knocked out immediately once i got on the bus and missed my bus stop :( sherman wanted to meet me at the park that day but I couldn't go down and it turned out that he got me flowers + chocolates and wanted to surprise me but his efforts were wasted and it made me feel damn terrible after finding out 😭


School the next day and it was Xiao lin's birthday! I was so upset because the balloon I got her deflated by the time it reached her :((((( I was so excited to give it to her the day before!!!!!! agh was so pissed @ myself :(

20140715-233846-85126820.jpg
I do hope that she liked the mini (failed) surprise tho :)

Had a super magical night on Friday with the one and only ❤️ he brought me to Kallang, hoping to grab dinner at Poulet because we've been wanting to try it for the longest time but turned out it hasn't opened yet :( was kinda bummed but we found another place to have dinner at!!

20140715-234438-85478609.jpg
We both agreed that it doesn't matter where we eat at, what matters more is the company hehe I really do enjoy nights like these and spending time with him hehe

It was honestly one of the most magical + loveliest night I've had so far and ahhhh I can't emphasize how lucky I am to have such an amazing boyfriend :')) can't wait for our next adventure/proper date :))))

Spent the next 2 days of my weekends kayaking and wheeeee we finally got our one star kayaking certs!!!! It was sure tiring but I had such a gr8 time with my ODAC peeps :)))

20140715-234835-85715538.jpg
Met up with Shermz to have a quick dinner at Changi Airport after kayaking on Sunday and it was so nice seeing his face even just for a short 2 hours :))

20140715-235323-86003441.jpg

Not sure if I missed out anything but I kind of rushed it through (especially towards the end)!!! life is so good right now; everything's going so smoothly and I'm feeling ever so thankful every single day :)) besides the fact that I'm unwell now but all's good :)

"I am so lucky to have you, thank you for doing so much for me, for going to the extremes just for me, for lying about it being on the way and traveling all the way to east coast during my camp past midnight just to pass me a portable charger even though you were watching World Cup halfway, thank you for putting in so much effort in this relationship, for always trying to make me happy and showering me with love every single day. You're the best boyfriend anyone can ever ask for and I love you ❤️"
