Carpe Diem, Nulla Desideria

Carpe Diem; seize the day.
Nulla desideria; no regrets.

Seize the day, live life with no regrets.

And that's how I'm going to be living ;)

It's been a long time since I've blogged, REALLY blogged. I was stalking certain blogs, and then I just felt this urge to just switch on the laptop, head to blogger, and just start typing. So here I am.

It's been a hectic 3 months. College life has begun, and as overexcited as I was about it, it really wasn't what I had expected at all. I expected it to be something completely new, but then again: I'm taking CAL. Which isn't really that different compared to SPM. It's basically the same thing: study, study, study. Except that this is harder, and more important. I haven't done homework in 3 years, really. And here I am in college, receiving a ton of homework every day, and actually getting punished for not doing it. I didn't even get punished in high school, pfffft. I'm tired most of the time. I reach home at about 5-6 every day, and I still have homework to do, housework to settle. Seems like I'm just trying to catch up on everything.

I'm sure you're thinking: it can't be all bad, right?

Haha, well. College has a good side to it, too :) Other than being tired, I actually really really really love college life :) Heck, there's definitely more freedom in college. Freedom. Isn't that all we really dream about? To be free? ;) I get to stay back late after classes, just hanging around with friends. Our favourite hangout spots? Par Tea Time and Snowflakes! Par Tea Time has the best waffles around, and Snowflakes has awesome Taiwanese desserts, which Shman and I love. In one week, we actually went there 3 TIMES! ;D

I've also met many, many, MANY new friends. I'm in the same class as Shman (such a blessing), and our classmates are really really awesome people! :D 4/5 Epsilon was a little quiet, and I don't do quiet. Y'all know how talkative I am, and I just can't. stand. quiet. people. So THANKFULLY, our class is REALLY REALLY loud. For the first few days, the teachers kept encouraging us to 'speak up!' cause we were so quiet. But now, OH MY GOD. The teachers actually have to tell us to shhh! :P And the gossip in our class, ohemgee. We know each other's dirty secrets, thanks to Pamela. And I personally think that sharing something really personal with someone, really creates this bond between them. Hm. Plus, our class is so united :') Especially in sharing answers for homeworks, hahahaha. Like Ms Ho said, 'PM 13 IS SO UNITED. ONE PERSON WRONG, WHOLE CLASS WRONG!' xD HAHAHAHA.

Also, I've joined Taylor's CF :) I'm so thankful that I actually took the time to actually go. Because CF really does feel like home. I go for CF, and I leave feeling refreshed. It's somewhere I can be my loud, noisy self, and no one will judge me :D Hahaha. Everyone there is either as loud, or louder than me, thank God :) People in CF are really nice, too. Like Brian and Nicholas and Lean Loong and David and Nick :) *Yes, I just realized I listed down guys. Only.* Oops? :P

But. I miss the gang.

I miss those crazy people who know me better than anyone else. I see Lynn and Leek every day, so that's okay. But Evo, Jannah, K Fung, Sehran, Sarah, Matthew? I don't get to see them every day anymore, and it sucks. Plus Shman wasn't around for 3 weeks, cause he went to UK. God only knows how much we missed having him around. He finally came back to college on Friday, and I was SO HAPPY. *Shman, if you're reading this, I know. Ew.* Hahaha. But yeah, he came back and we just had so much to catch up on. We talked and laughed and laughed and laughed and laughed. Dang, I strayed out of topic. The gang, the gang. I just really miss us. How we used to hang out every day during recess, and after school. The rubbish we'd talk about, the things we'd do. Hm :/

This 3 months, have taught me so much.
1. Appreciate the people around you. You never know what's going to happen next.
2. God is ALWAYS there for me. Always.
3. Happiness is something that you make for yourself. It's a decision you make every day.
4. People judge. That's nature, and there's not much you can do about it.
5. A smile can do wonders :)
6. Don't dwell in the past, because you can't change it. But you can always change what's going to happen next :)
7. DO NOT SLACK.
8. Be yourself. Let people like you for who you are, not for what you're not. If they don't like you, well, that's their loss, isn't it? ;D

... and so many others. I just realized that I have piano class later, and I haven't practiced. Oh gosh. Better start now.

More, soon :) I promise.

Ps. To those who're stalking, please, DON'T SCROLL DOWN. Lemme warn you, those posts come from a very immature and depressing time in my life. So, Just. Don't.
Please and thank you :)
