3 More Months! :)

A-Levels has ended, the holidays have begun! :) So what have I been up to, and what will I be up to? 


1. Reading
As if the many books still untouched that I had at home wasn't enough (hiatus due to A-Levels. I promised myself I wouldn't touch any books until A-Levels was done with.), I had my BB1M voucher to spend :D Great news for me, bad news for everyone else. My mum even forbade me from buying too many - she limited me to only four, sadly :( Having so much time on my hands, I decided to finish reading all my new books at least once before I leave this September (hopefully). Thinking about it now, it's not really a challenge seeing as I devour books. If I start a book and I find it interesting, I can finish it in a day? Yeah, that bad. Heeeee :P So far, I've read 6 books. Not much by my standards, but as you'll see in a while, I've been quite busy. I think. Hahahah. They are:


  • Delia's Crossing; by Virginia  Andrews
  • Marshmallows for Breakfast; by Dorothy Koomson
  • The Tenth Circle; by Jodi Picoult
  • Kane and Abel; by Jeffrey Archer 
  • A Prisoner of Birth; by Jeffrey Archer
  • Before I Fall; by Lauren Oliver

I can never be a good book critic, because I find almost all books interesting in their own way. I think, if you really immerse yourself into the book and let your imagination run free, every book is a new adventure. So cliche, I know. BUT. This book,


You MUST read. 

The story is really unlike anything I've ever read before, and asasdjafkjahsdkljf I can't say much without giving it away. I lent it to a friend of mine, and she was just rendered speechless. Heheheh. Okay lah, not really. Her exact words were 'Awesome. Genius. Amazing.' JUST GO AND GET IT LAH ISH. 

2. Playing computer games
Yeaaaaaaaaaaah, hahah. I'm playing computer games. Which I'm downloading from WildTangent games. They usually give one or two free trials, and you can usually finish the games in about 2 hours or so. But here's the catch: you can't leave the game for a certain amount of time. Or else your free trial will be gone and all your hard work along with it. Yes. Hard work okeh. So far I've played quite a number of games - many of them time management & hidden object. Still love those kind of games heh :) Trying to download Harvest Moon, but coming up unsuccessful so far.

3. Catching up on dramas
Another thing I'm being quite unsuccessful at. Before the holidays, I was so determined to catch up on all my favourite dramas - Criminal Minds, Fairly Legal, Suits, Castle, Glee, etc etc etc the list goes on and on and onnnn. But after exams, I just got so lazy. Lazy to what?? you may be asking. Wellllllll, lazy to download. Lazy to sit down and press the play button. Just plain laziness, which you can't really explain. Really. So far the only drama I've half-managed to catch up on is Criminal Minds. I really wonder what happens to the team, hmm.

4. Helping out my mum
My mum has a lot of stuff to do. Computer work, usually. Since she absolutely detests technology, I've to get them done. Mmhmmmz.

5. Preparing for prom
It seems the moment Student Council, or Larry more like, announced 'PROM', panic ensued. What dress am I going to wear must wear heels ah ohmygosh need? dang then how many inches heels to wear how am I going to do my hair who am I going with yadayadayadayadayada all the drama that comes along with prom. Even during A2, prom was always at the back of our minds my mind. It's supposed to be 'the night to remember', right? According to High School Musical lah. Hee. So after A2, I went out dress shopping with my classmates! :) It was fun and stressful at the same time. So cute seeing everyone trying out prom dresses trying to find 'THE ONE'. Hueyying and I ended up the last to pick our prom dresses, at the same boutique. I don't know if it was 'THE ONE', since I liked almost all the dresses I tried on, heheh. (This is what happens when you have low expectations.) but I'm sure it's close :) Also bought em heels in what I call 'desperate shopping', cuz we needed the heels in order to make measurements for the dresses' alterations. And this was the first time I spent 300 bucks at one shot, just like that *snaps fingers* And then there was the issue with hair & makeup & accessories. Wanted to do hair & makeup professionally, but it was a bit too pricey for me. So instead I asked my mummy to do makeup for me instead, and got tips from my cousin (I'm a makeup first timer, heheheh). Made a appointment to do hair at a studio near my house, decided on a style & changed it last minute. Got jewellery after dragging Shman shopping at Summit, with him whining all the waaaaaaaaaaaaaay. And with that, preparations = done! :)

6. PROM! :D :D :D
The day finally came! I woke up feeling excited, then feeling nervous cuz I hoped I would look as pretty as everyone else in the room. Meh. Did my hair, makeup and then went to pick Shman to Lynn's house. We left at 5.30 and reached Renaissance at 6.45? I really do love jams, really really mmhmmmz. Prom was really really a night to remember :) Performances was good, food was so-so, but best of all were the memories made and pictures took :) And everyone looked gorgeous :) :) :) Some pictures:

And now on to things I'll be up to! :)

7. Volunteering at GG
I'm probably going to be volunteering for Generasi Gemilang soon :) Teaching some lil kids, helping out at orphanages, that kind of thing :) Finally. I've been wanting to do something like this for ages, but I never really had the time or opportunity. Or maybe it's just because I didn't make them. Yeah. Looking forward to it, plus I'll get to see Sarah more often! Love that girl to bits! 

8. Shooting a video
Details strictly private for now, I think.

9. MALACCA TRIP
YES. IT IS ON. After all our failed plans and all the planning, we are FINALLY going somewhere. We, OUR GANG, ARE REALLY GOING SOMEWHERE. *cries tears of joy* Had to make many changes, but finally. We'll be taking a 2D 1N trip to Malacca! On the 29th to 30th! CAN'T WAIT OHMAIGOSHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH 

10. CF Camp
