Update after a long while and some ramblings

Haven't been updating in a very long while and not to make any excuses but here's the main reason: I am holding two full-time jobs at the moment. It's really crazy. Here's my working schedule. Mon - Wed: 7.30am to 3pm at Outram, 3.30pm to 8.30pm at Kembangan. That's 13 hours a day for three days! Then Thur - Fri: 7.30am to 5pm. Sat: 9.30am to 6.30pm. Sun: 2pm to 4pm. 

Aside from working seven days a week, my jobs require me to use up a lot of my energy too because I am teaching at Kembangan. I am really starting to feel the effects of my long working hours. Huge eye bags, intense dark eye circles, back aches and constant yawning and stoning. Yeah I am a mess now. On the other hand, in a few more weeks, I will be undergoing a surgery and I can rest all I want then. 

Well okay, I have been lazy to update as well. Somehow everytime I reach home at night, my priority would be to watch old episodes of shows such as As Told By Ginger or That's so Raven instead of blogging or applying for university (Yikes!)

Ok here are some updates:

So on 1 Mar 2013, I went back to TJ to receive my A Level results with Chrystal. Shall not reveal my results but all I can say is, I am not satisfied or happy with it, but I am thankful and appreciative that at least it can get me into the course I my mum wants. 


Then a few days later my family went to Ssikkek at Novena to celebrate Clara and Clement's birthdays. Korean bbq! *makes disgusting slurping noises* It was crazy crowded. Not a really good experience. The food was good but the crowd, noise and stuffy interior makes the whole dining experience quite unjoyable. 


The next few pictures were taken at Ion's The Marmalade Pantry. The food is really expensive (for me) but still worth it because it was so good! I loved everything we ordered!


Chrystal's crab-meat linguine in the background and my scallop linguine looking so delicious!



This desert is heavenly! I am craving for it right now looking at the picture. The hot cake paired with the cold ice cream and salty caramel drizzle is so perfect. Mmm~ It's called Toffee Date something something something.


My outfit for the night! Omg my shoes were killing me that night! The back gave my feet huge blisters and the front kept pinching my toes! I hate closed toe heels!


 Lemon meringue sponge cake that looks like a lion hehe!

Ok then we headed to Sephora! Bought a new mascara and a new lipstick! Lancome's Hypnose Doll Eyes mascara and MAC's lipstick (a bright orange colour). Love them so much! I am obssessed with orange lipsticks at the moment! I feel that the colour really suits me because I have tan skin.


And this is a picture of the mascara on my eyes! It's so good because it lasts the whole day and it looks so natural on lashes because the lashes do not clump and spread out so nicely. The mascara cost me $50 though. Pricey but the quality is superb! Still waiting for the Maybelline Rocket mascara to come to Singapore after hearing so many good reviews about it online!

Went to NUS open house on 16 Mar.



My outfit for the day. Love love love my parka. Got it at Bangkok for damn cheap and I'm so obsessed with it!

Anyway, I am thinking about taking Mechanical Engineering (Aeronautical Engineering) with a business minor and staying at Sheares/Kent Ridge hall. I don't know whether Mechanical Engineering is the right path for me. Four years doing something I am not passionate about. Am I doing the right thing? Should I choose based on my head or my heart. Something that will earn me big bucks in the future or something that I like? Can somebody please help me :(

After the open house I met up with a few of the FG people and we ate at Aston's for dinner before going to St. Games Cafe to play this game called RockStar Band. Haha love it! Feel like going back!



 Here's a picture of me and one of my students at Frankel. She is so mischievous and cheeky! But she's really funny and sweet and talented as well! She takes piano, swimming, canoeing, ballet and several tuition classes. I think she doesn't have any free time in her schedule. Quite sad if you ask me. But then again, that's something like what I'm doing to myself isn't it.

Ok that's all for my update. I'm thinking of doing a review for the Lancome mascara soon! :) Till then~
