Hello ! I've clicked on 'new post' an infinite amount of times now, yet I never wrote anything down. 2-3 months worth of 'life' compressed into one post seemed impossible, and I can't make up my mind whether I have too much to say, or nothing to say at all. Today is the last day of the year, and it seems like time has flown by so quickly when just a few months ago it seemed like the year would never end...

Here is what I've been up to... eating and eating... and sometimes a little something in between haha:

1. Made music a bigger part of my life - joined a band, played at 2 gigs, composed, and still jamming with friends :D 
2. Studied harder but my results didn't reflect it :( however, i have an awesome study buddy now :D
3. Made some new friends & also got closer with some old friends - some of the most wonderful people i've ever met :)
4. Got a job and spent heaps
5. Had heaps of froyo, waffles, and broke my lolly ban :(
6. Didn't finish reading a book, since April I've been reading Kafka on the Shore... but I bought new books recently so time to get reading !
7. Found the difference between 'alone' and 'lonely'
8. Discovered many sub-cultures/fashions that I love alot :3
9. Ate at a restaurant by myself and it's just not my thing
10. Ate healthier for a few months but somehow that just didn't hold up...

Hello ! It's been over a month since I've posted. I've been really puzzled by the layout change on here, hence the lack of posting... also the lack of anything going on in life, except assessments and such... However, quite a bit has happened since I last posted, now that I think about it. Although I still haven't seen my high school friends in ages :'( I've been drowning in so many assessments recently that I haven't gone to get waffles or green tea latte in ages ! Though I did go for a ice green tea blended on Friday... :D

178: waffles

178: green tea latte (sorry kind of obsessed with LINE camera)

ootd for work one day
a time-travel-back feel ?

 

258: went to a friend's 21st
white choc cake, croquembouche, macaroon tower & crepe layer cake :D

I got there later than expected and made my poor friend wait :'( There was so much yummy food and desserts and cakes and I discovered cheese kransky sausages here, delicious ! There was live music as well which was great :)

A few random photos...

288: our group won this in a lecture :O

got tattoo bow tights that i've been wanting to get for ages !

fluffy bunny :D



I met with Y on this day, as we rarely see each other at uni and etc. due to different schedules and such :'( but it was nice catching up and she led me to this udon place, or as she calls it, 'poor man's food'.Though I like ramen more than udon, it was nice for the price :) 

49: asked for half-half but got double the amount of jelly...

49: $5.30 can get you mini-udon, sweet potato & pumpkin tempura & croquette

A few friends and I gathered to celebrate I's birthday ! We had Moochi beforehand, and it almost killed me because I was really full from going to the buffet at Shangri-La Hotel earlier in the day... The buffet was so good though, and there were many many desserts ! There were wraps, salad, butter chicken, different kinds of rice, sandwiches, creme brulee, assorted mousse, cheesecake, tiramisu, other assorted cakes, I could go on forever... Also the waiter at the Lounge gave me some of my favourite tea to take home ! So kind ;____;
Anyways, about moochi, they never seem to have green tea froyo when I'm there... hmph. After complaining about how full I was that I couldn't move, we went to check out some restaurants but they all had a line. Also we couldn't decide what cuisine we felt like, in the end, we went for some Korean food yummmmm.
We ordered amongst the 5 of us:  2 bibimbaps, jap chae, jajangmyeon and bulgogi :D everything tasted so gooood.

79: jap chae :D



I recently joined a band. We had a band show recently, and we're having another gig one soon. Met and saw some real cool people, and I'm really glad to have known all these talented and friendly people.
One of them made me rediscover my love for rock ! Recently 've been listening to quite a bit of Hip-Hop and KPop instead... but now that has changed ! Although things might make me feel down at times, music will always make me very happy :) 

149: vip room at a restaurant :D

I went to the Biennale on Saturday with Q. We saw almost all the artworks I think, about three-quarters... My favourite one was Philip Beesley - Hylozoic Series. It was a large-scale interactive installation piece, so beautiful and the idea behind it was wonderful :) Enjoy these bad photos taken with a dslr haha.

159: Biennale;  Tiffany Singh - Knock On The Sky Listen To The Sound

159: Biennale; didn't get the name/artist of this one...

159: Biennale; Philip Beesley - Hylozoic Series

199: some crazy crazy strawberry I came across...
it was the size of my palm !

Last Friday I met very briefly with a friend and on my way to the city I dropped my rilakkuma earphones :'( My friend was really nice and tried to find it but to no avail... So clumsy of me... Well, then I with J and we went to Ralph Lauren for a bit. After that we met with V and went to Tom n Tom's for a drink whilst we waited for dinner time, I got my drink from another place though :D I'm so glad they have pretzels again !
We went to Madang !!! I've always wanted to go.... D and M met with us later, and then we ordered: seafood pancake, ddubokki with mushroom and cheese, and a hot pot with noodles and assorted sausages.
Oh my goodness the ddubokki was alot hotter than we expected. We had so many water refills haha. The noodles and sausages were less hot, and well, everything tasted great ! Definitely going to go back more and more now :D

219: cheese ddubokki with mushroom

Something I've realised lately is that I haven't had coffee in ages. I don't know why but I've been naturally drawn away from it. This is really random... I've been drinking more juices and frappes, water, etc. lately, which is nice too :)

Also corn thins + butter + curry furikake = great.
I looked online to see what other people put on their corn thins, and wow there is really alot you can do with them... Anyways have a lovely week everyone :)
