I know im so backdated in updating stuffs but since i cant concentrate on my work for a whole day maybe it's a better idea to come and revive this dead space. it's slightly more than midway past jan new year came and past so fast but probably cause jan was a really a busy month for me. slightly after hogmanay, drama happened then it was time to pack and leave for london finally after months, i get to meet up with friends again! the main highlights of the trip were the company, visiting stamford bridge & harry potter im still blown away by how much details and hardwork were put into the whole harry potter series & butter beer tastes awesome! also, the thought of having visited Chelsea's home ground still makes me slightly excited inside I can't explain why, but it was just so cool Though i don't really fancy watching soccer & know nuts about the team but seeing what goes on behind the scenes of one of the more famous team is just so thrilling if given another chance, i would'nt mind visiting asernal or man utd's home ground london is an awesome place, but i would rather stay in edinburgh maybe because london's lifestyle is a wee bit similar to singapore came back to parcels containing my black leather jacket & an s3 flown all the way from singapore <3 After london trip, it was back to school for a week to rush out 800 words of my dissertation for a meeting then friends came over to edinburgh had a wee bit space to breathe afterwards but before i knew it, it's time to pack for iceland! Iceland was breathtakingly awesome, other than the horrible wind that could have blown me away The main purpose was to catch northern lights but because of the horrible weather, it was not really nice however main highlight of the trip would definitely be horse riding! golden circle and cycling tour were good as well. love the landscape of the country, enjoyed listening to the history behind it the people were really nice & the food is tasty, albeit expensive would really love to go back to the country again, but it's undeniably pricey. after coming back from iceland trip, it's time to start working really hard afterall, that's what im here for & if everything goes on the right track i'll be volunteering in english classes for international students in church every mon no idea why but i just had this feeling inside of me that tells me to do it i guess it fits well since im an international student myself and i would understand them better well, cross fingers that everything will go smoothly And well, remember the plan i was talking about previously? i've searched through websites, considered the price, emailed many organizations still unsure of which one to choose but all i know is that i filled in an application form for the one in school & ive got accepted to do volunteer work in moldova in june i was actually considering doing clinical placement in moldova but it would cost two times more than if im to do volunteer work & if i choose to accept the volunteer work one instead, i dont get to stay with a host family as well ): the actual, more exciting & most ideal plan was to do volunteer work in mexico i get to stay with a host family, fly to the states for the first time in my entire life by myself & i get to learn basic Spanish but oh well, with the recent shooting case and the safety in states, my mum would never ever allow me to travel there alone the second most ideal place was korea but the time frame doesn't fit into the one im looking for so the next best option was moldova since i had to take into consideration the time period, price and the aim of the trip i'm only left with 3 more days to decide if i want to take up the offer any advice anyone? :/ (actually, i wonder if there are any souls still visiting this dead space) I'll try to do a short and sweet recap of 2011 in my next post since i realized i have not sat down and reflected on the past year it's a good thing to do isn't it? to see how last year have went & setting new goals to make this year a more awesome one 2:58 PM

Things weren't as what i expected when i came but i learnt to adapt either i accept things that i can't change or change myself to adapt to it it was not easy but i guess i managed to come to terms with it i guess that's what im slightly better than others at doing that i might not be able to fully understand why someone else might not be able to achieve it ok, maybe i do understand. but i dont understand the whole drama that's going on call us stupid or idiots, but we really do not know what went wrong it's true that it's difficult to read people especially if one keeps quiet and suddenly just explode how do we freaking know what went wrong? im not psychic, i dont read minds i can sense a tense atmosphere but i cant explain what's going behind minds glad for the short getaway but ive not finished my work yet T_T how do i churn out 800 words with the limited articles i have & a presentation within 4 days of travelling? 7:01 PM

 Being sick in a foreign country is not fun at all ): Luckily i made a clever choice of asking for telephone consultation instead & the doctor decided to see me as an emergency appointment on the same day if not i would have to wait till thursday & have another three more sleepless night the healthcare system here is so different compared to singapore anyways, a ear infection causes pain that i can never imagine +_+ i think the only reason im still awake and typing this is because i took painkillers omg. ive never loved painkiller so much before. its winter/xmas break now! but being sick and having to stay at home is really no fun at all ): the few weeks after i came back from inverness to my birthday was real crazy but im super glad that presentation is finally over! 14 weeks of work into a 10 min presentation hope i did well for it *cross fingers* it feels like ive been resting for so long and before i know it xmas will be over and ive not done a thing. i can foresee that once new year break is over all the stress will pile up again but right now i cant wait to recover so i can do my xmas shopping & i cant wait for london and iceland trip \o/ shall blog about my inverness trip soon. cause its something worth remembering (: 4:02 PM

i stumbled upon a website one day
& suddenly i had this little dream to do something instead of travelling around with the little time i have between school term ends and graduation in july
this small little dream but its scary if im to go ahead with it
it's not the right time to share yet so wait till things are more confirmed then maybe i will talk about it more (:
now, i just have to weigh the pros and cons of everything
& maybe pray about it as well
anyways talking about praying,
ive been roaming to churches, cellgroups & this fellowship for singaporeans & malaysia students
& im really amazed/overwhelmed/taken aback by how people have so different/conflicting views on the same scripture & belief
truthfully, i didnt really church hop before i settled down in chc
hence im not really exposed to the different christianity there are & how people view things differently
over here, there are many discussions during meetings & so when people share their views, im starting to realize how much conflicting ideas there are about the same belief
it's interesting, an eye-opener, yet at the same time a little overwhelming for me to try and understand everything
still church hopping and hoping to settle down somewhere soon though
lessons are going alright
just slightly stressed about the upcoming presentation
cause everything is still in a mess & im trying so hard to link things together
& im really hoping to get it done sooncause i have to start on my thesis & there are more projects from next week onwards halloween is now over next thing to look forward to: host! yay but my host still haven get back to me & i haven book tickets yet. stressed :/ 4:00 PM

its been more than a month since i've arrived so much better with the cold now i dont shiver as much as i do then when i first arrived fashion wise is so different here <3 their knitted wear, the xmas printed leggings their trenchcoat, jackets & boots but i cant get too much cause it wont be of use when i get back to sg ): i really wonder how i'll survive sg's weather when im back but before that i need to think about how im going to survive winter here :/ cross fingers (& toes) that it would snow this year though apparently when i first arrived it was FREAKING SUMMER how can it be summer when the temperature had never been above 18 degrees? & now autumn has just started. wonder when will winter arrive :S school's good, some lectures are thought-provoking finding the difference in culture really fascinating like the way people places so much emphasis on the meaning of words while to us its just pure linguistic ive also gotten used to stares/rudeness from some people just because we're asians yes, sadly to say just because of some groups of childish grown ups, it made me stereotype the westerners for a period of time but im slowly starting to realize actually some of them are relatively friendly being an international student, it gets lonely at times especially since all your friends and closed ones are back home feel really lucky that im staying with my group of friends at least we look out for each other, cook & have dinners together (most of the other students here are envious of that lol) & super glad i found a jogging partner too (: at least it helps to motivate me to exercise, though he's a guy & always has to slow down to my pace ): ive actually signed up for dance as well but i really dont fancy the teaching style of the seniors & why must hiphop for them include breakdancing??? i think it's really bad for my wrist (though i can do a short handstand now :D ) & plus the fact that they're actually training for a competition.. im really having doubts if i should continue attending it tried out two different churches & one cellgroup meeting im supersupersuper glad i went for the cgm that day it feels really good to be back in the presence of god im still undecided but i think ive roughly decided on the church that i shall attend year 4's will be back soon & i can predict things will start getting busy but yet, im excited for HOST, halloween, xmas, new year & travelling down to london in jan (double cross fingers) 5:42 PM

'Does it matters how far you are heading? Does it matter what you're leaving behind? As long as I'm with you, what's there to fear about?' I think no one will really understand how i feel about leaving even i myself find it difficult to express those feelings but somehow words appeared, verses were given, advices were given & now, im no longer that confused, no longer that afraid of leaving (: 10:50 AM
