Okay I'm typing this post a second time cos internet here is like crap. LOL. Anyways, just updating to tell you that I'm fine here, and dont worry I'll survive. New environment and chilly weather cant beat me down <3 Blogging frequency will definitely be less frequent because I've been really busy. Maybe I'll blog once every one to two weeks. Cost of living is real cheap here. We go shopping every other day. The shops sell really quality stuff (contrary to popular belief that quality is like crap), and so cheap too <3 Cant help but buy everything ! But must control. Heehee. Oh yah , and I ate this which is like super popular in China: Fyi, 90% of the fruits sold along streets are covered with rock candy, which i've no idea why.
Finally can access the internet !
Not as hygenic as Singapore, and need to adapt to new environment and friends. The more I'm here, the more scared, sad, and lonely I become. I cant SLEEP. ARGH.
Hopefully will be able to blog at China :) Just wondering. Friends, please DONT sms me from now till 15th April cos I bet sms-ing me is going to cost a bomb; I would be in China. Please email to [email protected] instead. (That is, if you wish to contact me. Even though I know that most likely only my mum and Kennedy will email me. BUTTTT a surprise email from friends would be awesome too!^.^) I know I sound all hyped up about my Xiamen study trip, but to be honest, I'm afraid. Afraid of new project mates which I've never worked before. Afraid of having not much friends, though I'm quite independant. :'< Afraid of being damn blur and getting robbed ! DDDD: ! Furthermore, I dont really know what to expect from the 2 new subj. But since I've already made the choice , I must jiayou and try to feed my mind with positive thinking!~ I CANNOT and WILL NOT allow myself to breakdown in a foreign country from over workload and negative thinking. If I can manage to make good new friends from a whole bunch of completely different people in year 1 sem 2, why cant I make good friends for year 2 sem 1 and so on? ------------------------------ Tongue Tattoos for me and Kennedy (: Well.....non permenant tattoos actually :P It's $2.30 from I suppose, any 7 eleven.
Comes with about 20 hello kitty wafers with edible ink (or slightly less, I didnt count). It's made from wheat flour and artificial sweeteners. The taste was of course sweet, but slightly bitter. Simply leave it on your tongue for about 10-30 seconds, and try to press it down vertically on your tongue. And if you're wondering, yes the tongue tattoos WILL fade off after swallowing saliva or drinking water. But it's really fun while it lasted. There's really nothing like this. Go and try it, and tell me what you think :) We have a society that values extroversion more than introversion.
However, introverts dont necessarily value less than extroverts. Here's why. Introverts: 1) Work Well With Others, Especially In One-to-One Relationships 2) Maintain Long-Term Friendships 3) Flexible 4) Independent 5) Strong Ability To Concentrate 6) Self-Reflective 7) Responsible 8) Creative, Out-of-the-Box thinking 9) Analytical Skills That Integrate Complexity 10) Studious and Smart So this is a little something for my introvert friends ^^
Watched Rango early in the morning with Kennedy :) After that we went home, and he took an afternoon nap. Looks like a human-sized hamster without his specs on and sleeping without me realising me staring at him. Very cute. Spent the rest of the evening with 6C people ! Thank you Pindong for organizing this gathering just for my leaving to Xiamen and sending me back home. And Thank you to Chuwei, Kaiyong, Kaiyang, Pindong, and Esther for turning up. :) I really appreciate it. I know my social skills is not very good, but I'm really trying my best to socialize and I hope I can improve on it ^^ Anyways, thank you ! :) Feeling inadequate sometimes, and insecure of new friends for the next semester. I need to start having FAITH of things, to build up security from within, and not build all my security externally, such as for example, grades or friends. So when things fail or fall, I can stand strong. Watched Gnomeo and Juliet today. :D
It talks about two types of gnomes, divided by their colour (Blue and Red), who hate each other cos of that. Reminds me of races and how people treat each other in this world. :) It's really similar, and often people stereotype or stay away from others cos of their race. My favourite scenes from Gnomeo and Juliet: Travelling alone,or with Kennedy to some exotic place. With nice scenery, good food that isnt too damaging on the waistline, slow walks on the beach and cycling, nice music that I like and..... computer games.
I need peace and to be alone, undisturbed but yet not feel lonely :D Currently, my life is very hectic. Almost as hectic as during school period. Xiamen packing, Xiamen injection, Xiamen new project mates that I'm not familiar with. X_X |
