Good day, every one! Inspired to begin a new series of posts every Thursday after chancing upon the #ThankfulThursday as I was scrolling through Instagram some 4 weeks ago. I am supposed to do one every Thursday but because I missed the second week, so here's the third one: (Missing Hannah but) non-stop laughter and random chatter; what would life be without you girls? 🙆 Not many know but WKWSCI wasn't always my first choice. I mean, it was my first choice on paper and, at one point, I was very determined to get in so that I could bunk with Grace in Year 1. But I was worried, honestly, about having no friends. Back then, the thought of mingling with new people kind of scared  me so I chose to follow my friends to FASS instead. Weeks after I made the decision to accept FASS's offer, I realised my friends weren't exactly friends . I felt more left out than I thought I would because I always thought those people were going to be my forever-friends. ...

Been feeling down these days and it's not a feeling I can aptly describe since I'm not usually like this. I wonder where I get all that energy to put up with people who make me feel worthless. Fuck you, seriously.  I sometimes surprise myself with the ability to remain all chirpy and happy at the end of a long drawn day. And, well, I like when I'm like that. But these days have been so, so hard. I'm still laughing, still cheery and still pressing on but it's just so fucking hard I don't even know what to feel. So tired, so unmotivated, so undriven; I wish school would just end already.

I chanced upon today's title while randomly browsing through Instagram and was very inspired by it. I mean, it just fills me up with so much gratitude towards God for allowing me to love everything and every one I have in my life right now. ☺️ A couple of days ago, I became so addicted to Beast's latest comeback title, 12:30 , that I couldn't stop replaying it. I was even disappointed I couldn't find it on the iTunes store because I really wanted to purchase the single. So all I could do to get my hourly dosage of the song is to watch all their comeback stages, which were all pretty amazing. 😍 In those 4 minutes, I began to swell up inside seeing how the boys' efforts have paid off since their debut in 2009. Then I thought about all the endless hours of training the years before they made their debut and, honestly, became so mesmerised and motivated by their diligence and determination. I thought to myself: How charming those boys look working so hard and ...

Allow me to begin today's post by wishing all the Indians a  HAPPY DEEPAVALI!   😊 I sometimes forget I'm half-Indian because my mom is so modern and we aren't very traditional but days like this I'm very pleasantly reminded of my mixed heritage and how I'm very much loved by my Indian family. Today began slightly different since we already went to the temple on Saturday. Instead, we headed straight to my grandma's place! Taxi selfie first 😊 We had a lot  of Indian food to eat. 😋 Now that I think about it, I've no idea why there aren't any photos of the food. What a waste, but it was truly enjoyable nonetheless! Indian food is turning into my weakness. I overeat so easily when it comes to Indian food. 😌 My grandma cooked everything. I had nasi briyani, chicken curry, lamb curry, stir-fried brinjal and prawn sambal ! Gosh, lunch was so good even though every one agrees my grandma used to cook better. Still, absolutely enjoyed my lunch! C...

I refer to my previous post on  online shopping , and hence decided to share with y'all where I normally shop at! 😀 (Always makes me so excited talking about shopping.) Before I begin, I'd just like to say I will probably never purchase anything from a preorder again. I was quite honestly disappointed with all 3 items I ordered the last time. My white items came with stubborn stains and the owners couldn't provide me an alternative and my shoes came a size too big because the owner had misinformed me. Unless I see something extremely irresistible, I will never buy shoes and white clothes  online. Below is a list of shops I often shop at and why  I shop with them is entirely my opinion so read on if you're interested! 😊 1.   MDS Collections Regardless to say, MDS has got to be the first stop I head to when I want to introduce a change in my wardrobe. I shop MDS at least once a month and usually purchase 2 items each time on average. I guess that explains why...

Procrastination at its best as I continue to put off revising materials from Week 6 onwards in preparation for tomorrow's media law midterm. 😅 It has been pretty hectic the last couple of days. We gave our house a new coat of paint (it's such a nice pastel blue now!)  even though it's not a perfectly done job. We also spent a lot of time at Tekka Market (Little India) and got at least twice the amount of decorations we got last year. In fact, my mama is off to Tekka Market (again)  today to buy the last of the decorations. 😌 Doesn't help that I've a midterm plus a Korean essay test tomorrow when I'm already in the festive mood. 😒 On a side note, I got my nails done yesterday and can't wait to share with y'all my entire get-up for Deepavali! 😁 Can't wait for tomorrow to be over! (P.S: Can't wait to update on this month's loots cuz they're all so pretty!!!) Well then, till next time! 😘

It's been a while since I last updated and I guess the reason I've been away for this long is because every day has pretty much been the same but I'm still more than just grateful. 😊 Every day is such a mystery and I'm so glad most days end on a rather good note. Although I've been battling a constant massive headache every night for almost a week now, and I sometimes take close to 2 hours to fall asleep, I'm actually quite happy. Despite the challenges and the occasional need to rant, I believe everything will be worthwhile. 😌 I've also been worrying about the whole internship thing but I'm so, so thankful and humbled by all the opportunities I've been offered. 🙆 I'm just going to keep working harder. 💪 Today has been a rather exhausting yet fulfilling day. (I secretly love it when days are like that.) While on the way to school, I was on the brink of tears just thinking about how I've to survive the entire day on less than 5 h...

It's always nice waking up on a Monday knowing I don't have to rush to prep myself for school. It has been pretty much a free-and-easy day today and I'm loving every minute thus far. 😌 Decided to check in because, as the title suggests, I made my virgin trip to Paradise Dynasty earlier this afternoon. 😊 Well, since I'm at it, I might as well give y'all a breakdown of what my day has been like. My mama woke me up at about 9AM, asking me if I'd like to head out to my grandmother's new (and still vacant) place with the rest of the family. I didn't believe her when she said the teeter was going too so I got out of bed and went into her room to see for myself. True enough! She was surprisingly awake. It was then I decided to head out with the entire family. We took a cab down to my grandma's new home and offloaded all the stuff she needed for her housewarming prayers. Hung around for a while because the new place is really quite a sight. 😌 ...
