    Dedication in the studio.
    Date / Time : Wednesday, November 27, 2013 / 7:56 PM
    Hello people !! Today I'll be posting something more .. related to Dance? I'm sorry to the non-dancers out there, because I felt like I had to .. ♥ Anyway, Anyhow Arts 2013 is drawing near now !! It's less than a month to performance day and shockingly this year, I'm feeling quite stressed out.


    Honestly, this is the very first Anyhow Arts that I'm dancing after graduating from Nanhua. For the past 3 years, I was always a Nanhua Dancer. I had holidays since mid-November and could dedicate all the time to Dancing and preparations for AHA !! ♥ But this year, it's different now. Being in Poly and having a tight schedule makes everything so much more stressful ):

    Yes, Xuejing & I were considering to choreograph an item. In fact, we had the concept and searched for dancers !! But seeing the huge amount of choreographers in our "DI Group" already, we decided to pull out for the better of our dancers. Basically, there are around 4-5 items by our group, and I know of Jeffrey, Felicia, Yulin, Siqi, Zhongyi, Koonhui as choreographers as well.


    Today, Koonhui discussed with us over Whatsapp about pulling his item out. Honestly it was a pretty upsetting move, because we love his dance a lot ♥ We've always been excited about it and he only started it this year because we kept pestering him to ^^ But his concern isn't without a reason, because we're all dancing in multiple items (as usual~)

    //

    This year Xuejing and I are dancing in 3 items, so far. Note the "so far" because we're unsure about pre-show and all that rubbish yet .. T.T Yuqi's dancing in 1 but she's trying to get more HAHAHAHAHA !! #laughdieme


    Honestly I don't know how I'm going to find time to attend practices amidst my schedule. I have lessons up till 13 Dec, with one CT and assignments. Then I'm flying to Taiwan from 13-16 and 21/22 is AHA already. I barely have time to do anything. I'm still excited for AHA, of course, ♥ It's just really stressful for me right now.

    And honestly nobody's gonna care about how stressed out I am because nobody will be in the same shoes as I am.

    //

    Here's to the dancers of Anyhow Arts 2013 ! ♥
    We'll pull through this and make it yet another amazing production (:


    I'm prepared to spend any free time in the studio already, are you? ^^
    #anyhowarts2013 #wecandoit

    Edge of Glory - Lady Gaga ! ♥
    This was the finale song for last year, curtain call and all (':
    I remember when Xuejing and I ran towards one another and held hands when we took our bow as choreographers for "Enlaces".

    Too caught up.
    Date / Time : Saturday, November 23, 2013 / 12:28 AM
    Hello !! ^^ I'm being a bitch for not posting regularly anymore and I'm so sorry 'cause life has been ._______. Hahahahaha it's been pretty good but really busy, so yeah ): But I'll still try to blog whenever I have time (I can't promise anymore) but I'll do my best ! ♥


    Ok anyway I'm not here to talk about the normal stuffs, AGAIN. Hahahaha sorry :P Today had been a rather busy day and all and I didn't have the peace I intended to have on the bus ride home T.T I was quite dreading the ride home alone, but I thought I could relax and all .. ♥ It's assignment week and I've had a rough time. But I was rather busy otw home so I didn't get that relaxation.

    Talked to quite a few people today .. And I realized that sometimes we're too caught up with being popular that we neglect what really matters, ♥ I'm not targeting anybody in particular, but if the shoe fits then I'm not going to deny anything.


    Truth is, there will be a point where we're so happy that we're popular ^^ We'll want to show that we have so many options, so many friends .. And that's pretty cool (: I want to be popular and flaunt it, not go like "Oh I'm not popular please" when you're obviously the one with 1238901 commitments. But sometimes, we need to stop trying to flaunt our popularity.

    I'm not someone who's popular, I'm not even lying/being modest. I have my comfortable groups of friends, people I can turn to whenever I need help or anything ♥ I do have a choice of friends, but I'm not exactly the most talked about person around.

    Maybe we are a lil' too happy when we feel that sense of popularity, but we're not putting ourselves in the shoes of those being denied as our options. We like to say someone is "Mr/Ms Popz" when they make a choice of others over us, but yet when we deny others as our options we find it completely alright. Have we ever thought about it and reflect on ourselves instead?

    I'm not saying we should always remain unpopular and stick to the same ol' group of friends, but sometimes we need to set our priorities right. Don't make the choice because "I can" but because "it's more worth the while" !! ♥


    If anybody feel like whatever I said is complete bullshit and you don't agree with my point of view, I'm open to comments. I wouldn't say I am a pot calling the kettle black because I used "we" instead of "you all"; I myself am guilty of being too caught up with popularity sometimes, and I don't deny it. But yet I wish I would stop being this way.

    To my darlings who are hurting out there because you feel like you're a "denied option", remember this: Don't make a person your priority if you're just their other option.

    You're capable of doing better than that, ♥

    A song played during lunch with 110 yesterday ^^
    Really like the song and sometimes we don't realize what matters until it's "Too little too late".

    The ups in life.

    Hi I'm back (: Actually I haven't edited and posted the post(s) like I promised, but then again .. I'll do it real soon !! :P #guilty Well, I'm pretty thankful 'cause we hit 27K counts, ♥ I'm not a famous blogger and all but I'm thankful for that small amount of you who do read.

    //

    Today my post will be pretty boring again, I'm sorry ): Had a rather rough day, I'd say. And I wasn't in the best of moods but definitely my best buddy definitely cheered me up a lot ! ♥ I haven't actually talked about him in detail in my post(s) before, but I'm pretty thankful for his presence and all ^^


    I remember back in FOC Day 02 when we began talking and we grew close rather fast !! You were like a friend I knew I could trust almost immediately, and we would throw each other looks of acknowledgment in the most random of times !! #laughdieme Of course, the memories we shared back then are irreplacable .. ♥

    Throughout the bonding period with Zodall, thank you for trusting me !! ♥ I'm not saying that without a reason .. You were always so willing to share your personal matters with me and wouldn't say "no" when I asked (: I remember once we skyped while you played Dota and I got so annoyed HAHAHAHA. Well I'm never gonna have such patience up till 4AM anymore.


    There was once during .. July? When you called me on Sunday Night and we talked on the phone for hours ! ♥ It felt nice 'cause we could talk about anything and everything ~ Didn't we talk almost every week for awhile since then? You're usually the reason I feel goddamn tired for S&W !!

    //


    I remember that day during Frisbee Tryouts .. ♥ We sat at the Grandstand and talked .. And that's the day I knew I could count on you even for the worst :D I always hated that whatever you said usually come true .. But then again, it shows how well you know me HAHAHAHAHA !! Sometimes you get me so annoyed but yet you make me feel happy to have you as a friend ^^

    I'm glad we have those impromptu catch-up sessions or lunch where we talk about how everything's going right now !! ♥ It's not those emotional stuffs .. But it's our way of maintaining the friendship !! Thank you for trusting me all these months with your personal feelings and secrets, and for allowing me to trust you with all the rubbish I have inside of me #guilty



    We're the kind of best friends that people will know with one look ! ^^ Even if we walked side-by-side and acted like we were going on a date, nobody would believe ~ It's this kind of friend that makes me happier on a moody day and angry on a happy day HAHAHAHAHA ♥ But nevertheless, I'm beyond glad that we met and became friends (:

    //

    Thank you for being my best friend in Zodall, Heimdall ♥♥
    And thank you for everything that we've gone through from past till now :D


    //

    Everything with the video from "Lilo & Stitch", ♥ Hahahaha I don't wanna be either but then it's really cute and it fits into my post theme so yeah !!

    Physical Distance < Us.

    Hello people ! I have like a gazillion posts that I want to post but then .. I'm so lazy to edit them hmm. I promise I'll do a proper one someday alright, but I just had to do this today, ♥ So pardon me for the lack of update and all 'cause I'll do them real soon ^^

    //

    Had batch brunch @ Clementi today !! ♥ Firstly .. We had a good brunch (: To be honest, I thank God every night before I sleep for the people in my life, and one on the list will be '96. I've known them and been attached to them for the past 4 years, yet I'm glad nothing's changed between us !


    It was like any other day we spent together .. We met and bought food; We caught up on each others' lives and grumbled over the little things that we couldn't share with anyone else ^^ We would gossip about people we know, insult one another in a friendly tone and say mean stuffs to one another !! Then we celebrated Ping's birthday for a second time, and she was .. As usual, surprised ! ♥ It's really funny 'cause she don't ever expect this. #bimboqueen #yuqilost

    Well, of course we took a lot of photos and the boys were enthu about it as well :D They aren't the kind that love to take photos, but they will always give in to us at the last minute and join in, ♥ Sometimes their stubborn attitude makes us feel so frustrated yet so loved (':


    We talked a lot, and when it was time to say Goodbye .. We had no qualms about it. Each of us know that the Goodbye(s) we said weren't "forever", and it was just till the next meal we have together !! I'm really happy how we take that lil' time off each month for that half-day spent with one another to catch up on the insignificant happenings ~

    //

    To many juniors out there who may be envy of how "bonded" we are .. You could do the same as well .. ♥ It takes one person to start, and the rest to follow along !! ^^ '96 is a batch that held on tight even in the toughest times and never let go when we had it easy (': We treasured each moment spent together and never took one another for granted. And of course, you'd have to have the cutest brothers in the world.


    The kind that would insult you on a daily basis, ask all of you to shut up and refuse to reply on chats .. Then they would show up the earliest on meet-up(s) and sit in a corner eating their food (: They would give you a snide look when you camwhore but join in anyway .. And at the very end, initiate the group hug but watch by one side, ♥

    You also need to have the sweetest sisters ever (:


    The kind that would take your phone and take unglam(s) of themselves, bicker with you over 20cents, take your drinks and finish it before you even tried ! They would always take photos without you and you have to join in on your own .. And nag at you like your mom (': They know your style, and wouldn't blame you no matter how late you were #guilt And at the very end, they'd say they love you beyond words ever could speak. ♥♥♥

    //


    To my '96 darlings, I love you all ♥
    God gave me a family I would ever be so thankful for; And I know he would never take you away from me (:

    Hehehe, WHEN NEXT '96 OUTING?

    If you're pretty shocked why I'd post this song alongside this post, it's almost like our theme song already !! Whenever we had a bad day at Dance, we'd sing this song out loud on our way home to Clementi (: We'd sing out of tune, blabber the lyrics .. But we felt free, ♥

    For Angels to Fly.

    Hello people ! ^^ Sorry that I've been MIA-ing for the past week (again!) but I'm back now for a quality post alright (: Technically this is one of the first times I'm lying on my bed while typing but I shall give it a try since my muscles are aching horribly from my run yesterday sighhhh T.T


    It's been a pretty busy week once again last week, considering I had quite a bit of assignments to catch up on ): I pretty much spent the week doing my work and really paying attention in classes so that I wouldn't lack behind ! ♥ I'm trying to put in more effort into my studies this semester, hopefully it'll work .______. #nomotivationlahsiah #lazygirl96

    Anyhow, the week passed by smoothly despite some upsetting stuffs in the midst of it. I'm so thankful to the people who stands by me and walk me through the toughest times, especially Regine ♥♥ I always mention on my posts/tweets/insta how much I'm thankful for her but I could never say enough. She's the kind of friend that supports me no matter how dumb my decision may be and rushes to my side when I push her the furthest away, and for that I thank her, ♥


    Oh, and on Friday I had ScareFest with 110 ! We wore full black + celebrated Debb's birthday !! ♥ I hope she liked our card + cake hmmm (: Went for ScareFest with them and had a blast of a time ^^ Didn't manage to spot Isaac Khoo, Joel or Aniq but saw Sherlyn, Daviest, Eeter etcetc. #HNA2013

    Had Overnight Mahjong with Darren, ZhengNing + Ziyi over at my house where we talked a lot and caught up on many stuffs, which was great !! :D Love them to bits heheheheh ♥

    //.

    Today I had a study session with Andrea after IS Class and she's the sweetest of all (': She bought me Macaroons to share while we study and sometimes she's so blur she reminds me of Eloise. But then again she's so sweet, which again reminds me of Eloise ! ♥ Sometimes I feel so blessed to have them in my life, really (:


    I met many SU People in OurSpace where we lepak-ed a bit before we headed off for dinner .. ♥ It wasn't like a proper dinner but quality nonetheless ^^ Gave Eloise such a long hug and I felt so happy !! #overlyattachedfriends

    For this week I'll still be spending more time on my schoolwork and hopefully spend some time with Zodall as well !! ♥ Prep Camp sign-up(s) are this week and it's pretty scary hmmmm. Hopefully Zodall will get in full-strength, or well at most we can :D There's Futsal on Friday too, guess it's time to look at cute guys playing soccer again HAHAHAHAHAHA. I need to maintain I swear :P

    I'm sorry I find this hilarious and pretty relatable.

    //.

    I'm sorry to people I haven't treated very well the past week 'cause I haven't had an amazing week, I'd say. But I thought over it during the weekends and now I'm all better, ♥ Thank you to everyone for being so patient with me when I least deserve it .. So don't worry, you'll all deserve me at my best as well !! (:

    So thankful for Joelle for whatever she told me on Friday 'cause I can't find a friend elsewhere like that. ♥ Hahahahhaa I'll always be your #wingman ok no fear just trust me.


    //.

    Really happy to see my friends being happy actually (: Talking to Eloise today made me so thankful that she's so blessed right now ! ♥ She's the loveliest girl and she deserves the best one could ever offer I'm not even kidding !! And then Jaslyn's so happy with her boyfriend and I feel so happy for her ^^ Regine and Yongchuan are so irritating together but well at least they are happy so I'm fine with it HAHAHAHAHAHAHA :P

    And then Andrea's so happy as well I'm feeling for her, plus my darling Joelle who's so crazy over the littlest of things !! ^^

    //.


    Oh and Joel treats me the best I swear (: If you're reading this, you're super sweet my turning-gay-friend HAHAHAHAHA !! #guilt He gives me the warmest hugs and does the smallest of things for me like coming down to 51 to say Hi to me or standing there to wait for me to hug him (: Thankful for a friend like him in MCM really. He's one of my better male friends and I'm so happy that we aren't awkward or anything like most males/females do ._____________.

    //.

    I'm feeling so blessed nowadays with the loveliest of people in my life .. ♥ And I know it hasn't been a smooth-sailing week the past week but I'm sure things will take a turn for the better this week ^^

    Yes, I still do like you.
    But sometimes, I wonder what I could do to remind you that.

    The A Team by Ed Sheeran ♥
    So addicted to Ed Sheeran's songs these days (: Give me love and all too ~ It's really good !!
