#426 - Questions

I'm so incredibly busy but I don't know why I'm blogging. I have never done this sort of post before, but I guess there's a first time for everything.
 
What’s a question you’re afraid to ask? To whom?
Are we going to change and become unable to find things to talk about?

What’s something you hide about your personality?
I'm not just this boring, relatively awkward person - I'd like to think that I am opinionated,  talkative and not boring superficial person. I just don't get the chance to show these things to people when we don't 'click' enough.

What’s something other people think about you that you don’t agree with?
These days people think I work really hard in everything. Though I wish I did, I don't work hard in a lot of things.

How do you deal with criticism?
Not too well, especially if it's from family. But then, families stick together even though they are often the ones who see you at your worst. I'm human after all and I'm so full of flaws but I'm trying to improve on not taking everything so seriously and seeing a scenario from another person's view instead of being hot-headed.

What’s the sweetest thing anyone’s ever done for you?
There's been a lot of things. My lovely parents have done a lot of sweet things that any loving parents would do. Friends have also done some sweet things :) Just today my  tutor (who is so incredibly full of awesomeness) gave a few people and me an owl to remind us that she'll always give a hoot about us. Such a small gesture, but so sweet and thoughtful. All together now: awwww!  I love teachers like that.


What’s the sweetest thing you’ve ever done for someone?
One time last year it was raining in the afternoon and I saw this elderly guy who had mobility problems and was using a device that helped him to propel him forward. He didn't have an umbrella and I just held the umbrella over his head and let him get to his destination without getting wet.  

What’s something sweet you’d like someone to do for you?
[what's up with the emphasis on 'sweet' questions?!]
 

Someone chooses me to be a godparent to their future kids.
I looooove kids. And their fat cheeks. Not to mention they are so nice to cuddle and hug :D
Below: cutest little girl I know. That adorable toothy smile! When I felt her little hands reaching out to hold my big hand... :)

Describe your favourite texture.
Frothy. Love that texture on coffee, smoothies, Milo etc. SO NICE.


Post a photo/draw a picture/write a poem (pick one) of a moment of personal significance.

They say I appeared
arms flailing, screaming, kicking
"It's a noisy girl."

:)

Which fictional character would you most like to have lunch with and why?
Definitely the Doctor. He's had many adventures and I want to hear them all.


If you were an element on the Periodic Table, which would you be and why?
Helium.
I like it because my sis told me a lame joke about it and it makes people laugh at your high pitched voice after.

You’re an Action Movie Hero. What’s your weapon of choice and the line you scream when defeating your arch enemy?
Weapon of choice: Magical wand (a la Harry Potter)
Signature line: Die, motherfucker.


What did you think about before you fell asleep last night?
Hump Day is the worst.


What motivates you in life?
The beckoning call of adventures, hope and the people I love.


What was something you used to enjoy, but was ruined for you? What’s the story behind that?
Doctor Who. I used to be a hardcore fan and watched daily up to season 6, but then lack of time to do everything ruined it for me and it had to be sacrificed. I'm ashamed to admit that these days I spend a significant amount of time mindlessly watching endless cliché dramas instead of getting back on track with this fabulous show.

Which mythological creature are you most like? Why? And if you could be any mythological creature, which would you want to be? Why?
Oooh I adore almost anything from Greek mythology, but I'd probably pick Pegasus. I'd love to be able to fly and meet awesome people whilst having the most fabulous adventures ever.  

What’s something that scares you about the future?
The loss of humanity, autocratic countries, exploitation in all forms, fascist dictators, environmental damage - a world that's not suitable for my future children and future generations.


Describe your dream library.
The library would be aesthetically sublime and magnificent, housing 2000 books and more and there would be little robots to help me clean the dust and help me get books from hard-to-reach places. I'm a bibliophile.
A little like this.



Do you have any “rules” about food?
I'm a picky eater and I have SO many rules for food.
1) Can't be spicy, too meaty,  too sweet (*cough cough Max Brenner*)
2) No lamb, raw / rare meat, wasabi, weird parts of animals such as giblets or chicken feet or duck liver.
3) No bitter melon or pumpkin.


What’s your opinion on age differences in relationships?
Shouldn't exceed 10 years.


Describe a time/event in your life that you’re nostalgic for.
Childhood - the age of innocence.
I remember a great time when I was maybe 6 years old. It was a hot summer day and my sis and I were eating a Drumstick ice cream cone in the car whilst my mum was driving us to the supermarket. Then I had the absolutely spiffing ingenious idea of putting my cone outside the window to 'cool' it down against the wind. So there we were, putting our cones and sticking our heads outside the window, feeling the cool breeze. Then we get to the supermarket and got out of the car and saw ice cream splattered across the car doors and laughed our heads off. Back in those days... 


What is your ideal bed? Why?
Single bed with two fat pillows and a slightly bouncy mattress and warm blankets.

This is new guys and if you love dramas, I'm looking at you BETTER, you have to watch this OMG OMG OMG I LOVE THIS VIDEO, IT MADE MY DAY SO WATCH IT BEFORE IT GET DELETED.
Cute Triangle YJG
From virtualvoyage.net:

Yeo Jin Goo: “Did you ask me to forget you? Do you want me to forget you? I’m sorry, I tried to forget you, but I couldn’t.”

Kim So Hyun: “He’s coming…He’s not coming. He’s coming…he’s not coming. Jung Woo-ah. Han Jung Woo!”

Yeo Jin Goo takes off his royal garbs. hehe. Cheeky boy. *pats Yoo Jung’s shoulder*

—singing—

Yeo Jin Goo: “So this is how you look like, Lee Soo Yeon.” *smiles*

Kim Yoo Jung: “Your highness, I’m happy I’ve met you…”

I swear, I don't usually do this but I was pleasantly surprised the other day when I went onto blogger to check if my friends had updated their blog. Apparently Sweet and I have a strong following in Indonesia, did not even know that that was possible because the only Indonesians that I know reside in Australia but that's cool (: I hope that they find something meaningful by reading our blog and I think it'll be a lovely gesture if you leave a  comment or just say hi, we would appreciate it, if that is not up your alleyway then being the silent reader is fine by us as well

26/5/13

I GOT TWITTER yeah follow me but nothing much will happen because I only joined so that I could follow Nole and enter one of his giveaways

27/5/13
Uni is so different from high school, there's so many other people who are so bright and gosh I guess I'm average, okay I'm exaggerating here but I feel like that. It certainly isn't easy to get the same marks that I'm used to in high school and I MISS MATHS, hearing Average talk to me about his math hw and quizzes makes me regret not doing something with math and my the closest thing I have to it is stats (gross).

Something came in the mail today (: something I bought that is related to my party and also CNBLUE concert is this Saturday and reflectica and I will be going to Vivid because heck we're in the city so we might as well. I should be super duper excited except I have an essay to write for a unit that I just got marks for which I was not all too pleased about (it was just below D) and although I know what I wrote was shit, I thought that I should've been awarded more marks like my law case note. I have learnt my lesson now, I am never going to collaborate for law ever again, it just makes you second guess yourself when in fact you were right all along so from now on I'm just going to do my own thing and if that screws me over then so be it (I won't be fine with this but I'm just saying it for the sake of doing so)

#424 - Babblings

1. First and foremost;
Here are a few key traits that indicate teachers shouldn't be teachers: impatient, prickly, not willing to offer help and going off at almost everyone since someone complained about her teaching skills. Clearly, she's not teaching for altruistic purposes - wrong profession, dude. A plethora of degrees including a PhD and ___ years of 'professional teaching experience' does not guarantee that one will be a good teacher, okay? You could be extremely knowledgeable but still not able to deliver the content in an effective and engaging manner. Moreover, being defensive and downright cocky of one's teaching ability instead of giving feedback to students and telling them how to improve and where they went wrong is not the right way of doing things. No one was questioning her judgment anyway.

2.
Job. I'm not sure what's going on.

3. [I'll be going off on a tangent here with a rant about sexism.]
This
is sick, disturbing, sexist and uncalled for.
I'm hating the fact that the empowerment of women is so difficult to achieve because of people like him (ie. scum). As someone commented, his attitude is extremely harmful to women and his comments may serve as further justification for violence and assault against women.
A laughable thing I read yesterday written by a girl (ironically) was that sexism could be ignored since it was, and here I quote, "it's no doubt an insecurity" that women had. I'm just going like....what?! Of course it's not an insecurity - it's something that is fundamentally unjust and has detrimental ramifications on the people who are subjected to this (males included!). When sexism is ignored, this only legitimizes the vicious continuation of this unacceptable behaviour. If sexism was really such a minor issue that could be easily overlooked and joked about, there wouldn't be a need for various anti-discrimination laws which Australia currently has in place, right?
I'm all for being free of sexism - it's certainly not something that should be tolerated by anyone regardless of gender. That goes for discrimination in general as well.
As you may have gathered by now, I'm pretty vocal about things such as sexism, feminism, equality (you get my drift) when I blog and I have so much to say. However, when it comes to tutorials where everyone can freely discuss their views on certain issues, I'm deathly quiet. There's a lot of things I know but somehow I can never muster the courage to speak my mind freely in front of a lot of people... I guess I communicate my thoughts better by writing rather than speaking.  

4.
Though I really shouldn't be dwelling on unexpected setbacks and mishaps (get over it, girlllllll), some good news came around. I finally managed to perfect a law assessment the first time - no need for resubmission. HELL YESSS (: I finally did something right! I'm ecstatic because I am always completely mind-boggled when I do them and often eclipsed by self-doubt, questioning my intelligence. Though the memo is a relatively insignificant thing, it cheered me up immensely after I was down in the dumps for a day or two over a certain event. I'm going to miss this 'training wheels' unit when I move on to 'normal wheels' next semester. Got my first proper uni essay back today and I'm relatively happy - I could have done better, but at least now I know where to improve! (:

5. Last but not least;
A positive mindset. Yep, I'm trying to be more optimistic and upbeat no matter what happens. Too often I'm engulfed and caught up in indefinite and unnecessary negative statements such as "maybe", "can't", "won't", "unable" that I forget that I can achieve this or do that. Self-doubt is something that I'm often guilty of, and I'm sure everyone is the same. However, don't let it get to you since it seriously undermines the potential that lies within you. You have to believe in yourself first.

PS. Though point 5 probably is something that everyone needs - I especially address this to a certain someone who needs to be a lot more positive about their ability to achieve things and balancing study, work and social life - you can do it.

#423- Permeate free

Okay wasn't sure when I was going to write up this post but because today it is Nole's 26 birthday I had to write up something. So HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MY BELOVED DJOKOVIC aka MY MAN <333333 I think I have expressed my love for you on numerous occasions. I am so proud to be your fan and omgosh seeing you in person was one crazy experience that I shall never forget. Keep on doing what you do best and win Roland Garros, I shall be cheering you on hopefully live if not there is always Roland Garros radio but if my schedule permits me I will stay up so do me proud and dw I will happily fend off my friends who are Roger Federer fans.

Right so unto the actual post, many of you know that I'm not the biggest drinker of milk, in fact I only drink milk when it's in coffee or in smoothies because if you don't add milk then what do you add (I know apple juice is a substitute but let's not go there). I was so dumbfounded when I walked into the supermarket a few days ago because the milk aisle has become so complicated now and what the heck does permeate free mean? Being the noob that I am, I just grabbed the Dairy Farmers 2L milk (needed for baking) that happened to be permeate free (because I didn't know any better). For the record it tastes like water down milk which is only milk in appearance so yeah I'm going to start my own revolt and create my own placards saying something along the lines of bring back normal milk. In other words, I'm just like the guy in the Paul's milk ad who just wants milk that tastes like real milk and Paul's milk actually tastes quite good if you're considering the switch.

Anyways that's its from me but did you know that from this week, I have an assignment due every Friday for the next 4 weeks yeah I'm kinda screwed for Law

Behold, my colour coordinated calendar

#422 - AON

On Friday I had a nice catch up with Bitter & R over food adventures :) A bit of a random and spontaneous encounter for R, but it was lovely.

Yesterday Stephy and I went to Astronomy Open Night  at MQ. Despite the fact that science and me just aren't meant to be, I'm pretty interested in astronomy - it's so mysterious and there's still so much we don't know, and we are really insignificant. It was good and there were far more people there than I expected. I saw quantum levitation at work, some NASA (?) astronauts, adored the planetarium and recognised Geoff from the observatory (best place to do work experience ever:D). Then the ticket gates were open at Strathfield and so we ended up running out to do a late night run for Yogurberry. Argh I know,  it was quite cold and late and overpriced but we still went and bought some on impulse to satisfy Steph's wish. I'm in love with the popping balls hehe.

This is a bit random but I blogwalked one day and landed on a blog written by a girl who's a few years older than me, a stranger because I've never met her even though I coincidentally found out she is a friend(?) of a friend. I've been reading her blog for months now and I'm absurdly envious that she has such a natural flair for writing. Even though her blog chronicles her daily life, she writes so well about both the complex and simple issues in life. Heck, she even makes the mundane stuff sound good. My blogging pales in comparison to hers. I finally left an anonymous comment after she wrote a meaningful post and I'm glad to have made her day, because reading her blog always made me feel like I could further improve myself, reflect on some problems and situations, be a better person. I'm not sure why I just wrote all of this but...I hope that maybe someday, I can also reach out to a random stranger. Hmmm.

#421- Impending Hiatus

Hello all, the title is supposed to forewarn you all about how I shall post sporadically in the near future so sorry in advance. In other news I updated my other blog, click here

I feel so unproductive. Spent last night/early morning doing online stats homework (remember how I said that stats would be the end of me, I wasn't lying) and then today I had a rendezvous with an Ebayer who I bought baubles off <-- they're needed for my invites and a big shout out to Vanessa who gifted me with a generous supply of velcro so come end of June/early July I need lots of help from those who own sewing machines. After that, I was off to Chatswood to finally get a hair cut, it's a bob now which means I will look rather awkward when I'm in an exam going through my ritual (yeah I'm superstitious).

Finally, catch up with Sweet and Robbie omgosh it has been so long since I've seen you guys. So it was lunch at Pepper Lunch then I took to them to my caffeine retreat in the city aka Tom n Toms which I dub the Korean version of Starbucks and guess what 365 friend they had sweet potato latte and it was actually quite nice so to whoever told me off for combining sweet potato and a latte, there you go.

Also I'm not if this was some scam but nonetheless I got a text today asking me to help volunteer for the Red Shield Appeal, but sadly I'm screwed if I give up Sunday so please schedule it next year on a day that I can compromise

#420 - Lack

Okay this is going to be a random post that's all over the place.

> My life is like a routine that I'm super familiar with now. Things are going relatively well~ can't wait for Friday ;D
> L department: I swear that they have financial woes but yet the society keeps making social events every fortnight or so?! Which I just cannot be bothered to attend ...
> I need to be more frugal and start budgeting ASAP.
> I finally decided to accept my job offer (since the other place didn't contact me) but the website is down....nooooooo.
> Though there are more women involved in Australian politics, they're definitely not given the respect that their male counterparts had. No former male PM (despite his scumbag policies) was ever subjected to people throwing shoes, sandwiches and the like at him. This unacceptable behaviour and mindset is so rampant that the Ernies Awards is still going strong after 20 years. Double standards should not be implemented. If women have to be subjected to such poor behaviour, it's only fair that men should also receive the same treatment. Not trying to promote misandry here; I think it's just a matter of decency. That's my $0.02.

#419- Update

Today's Google theme is so cute (: and yay for momentary break so I can take it easy for the next two weeks I wonder when Butter will be holding the next sleepover?

Don't feel like ranting, just thought I'd reiterate my distaste for statistics (it practically took away half of my Sunday). I also wish Australia's Target could measure to the one in the US, you should visit their website. For one, the stuff they sell is so much better and cheaper. There's this product that Better and I have been eyeing for a while or more precisely her sister. Remember that time I was talking about EOS lip balms... well they release a limited edition Alice in Wonderland pack. Do you see the giant $7.99 sign, mind you I'm crying inside because if you go on Ebay it costs like $30+ and that's not even including shipping from the US. Although, I have too many lip balms at home so don't get me any otherwise I will have to re-gift them.

On another note, I'm going to get my hair cut this Friday at Chatswood so adieu long hair- you are too high maintenance especially in Winter. Anyone up for a lunch?

Not sure about how short....

#418 - Mum's the word

Happy Mother's Day to my lovely mum and other mums!

Good news: I received a job offer after attending my interview. But I don't know if I should accept it or not, I feel slightly apprehensive about starting work immediately... will try for out for another job and see how things go from there.

#417- Wednesday Madness

8/05/13

FYI I'm so happy that I go USYD instead of UNSW because when it comes to enrolling or timetabling we have the option of seeing someone so I can physically change it without the hassle of a stupid server, mind you ours is just as bad and I may have to eat my own words in the near future when it's time for me to do my timetabling but hopefully I can just harass the timetable guys from business so I can get what I want (not even sure if this was meant to be an attempt at sentence ....)

Also, drivers are horrendous these days, I almost got ran over twice in the space of 30 seconds from full license drivers and their ignorance of pedestrians and their failure to indicate. Gosh, I'm ending my driving hiatus so I'm back on the road on Tuesday, watch out guys and please do not be in vicinity as I am a serious safety hazard

Finally, open invite for lunch on Thursday! Youtube Sensation and I are having a food outing so come if you're free we start at 12-ish in Newton so let me know if you're interested.

#416 - TGIF

Sorry, no dnm post / life chronicles / rants this time. ☺

#415- Oh the Irony

Procrastinating at the moment by looking at restaurants :P but this time with a purpose. I may have mentioned this to a few of you, but I kind of want to hold one leg of my 18th at Bavarian Bier Cafe except some of you may deem it as pub grub whereas food website say it falls under the umbrella of European and German. Let me know what you think and whether or not you'll be okay dining there otherwise I'll rethink my plan and also should I bother doing invites, I know that a lot of us did for our 16th and then afterwards we were like mehhh and just simply followed the fad that is a facebook event. Should I conform because I doubt I have the time and energy to bring my ideal invite into fruition? So if you love arts and craft or if you have lots of time at the end of June/early July please help otherwise there will be a limited number of invites and only those who can attend or RSVP early can get one.

Update:
I cut my finger so now I'm going to be impaired while I try to get another solid 200 words done for my case study

#414 -忙

So as Bitter pointed out, the service provided by Cityrail was quite abysmal today - there were heavy delays in both the morning and arvo. I didn't understand why there were plenty of trains going to Cabramatta / Liverpool and all stops after, but close to none between Granville and Warwick Farm? :\ Had to wait a good long hour or more - during that time, I was so bored stiff waiting for a direct train to come I just started writing notes. Now that was pretty productive and it stopped me from too crabby haha. The more I do when I travel means I get to do less at home and have more time to procrastinate (oh, the paradox).

I can't wait till Wednesday evening is over because I will be practically super relaxed and a huge workload has been finished. I'm also quite chirpy today because I finally scored full marks in my weekly quiz,  yaaaaaaay! (: A language is the perfect complement for the other stress-inducing, mind-boggling subject. I also have an interview on Saturday (yay?!!) but  we'll see how that goes. 

#413- A would be happy post

Title explains it all, I was first happy to begin with when I was thinking of writing this post up but then Cityfail ruined it all, so now I'm sad but I am going to add to my 10 000 word essay so I thoroughly encourage you all to share your Cityfail stories because I sure do.

Story is, there was trackwork today. I'm not all that surprised however it would nice if Cityfail had the decency to let me know of it during the week instead of when I boarded the train. Announcement: this is a Glenfield service, change at Parramatta for buses connecting to Strathfield (WTF?)

Fortunately I'm scarred and paranoid when it comes to public transport and my punctual mentality so I caught the train that gets me to work 30min early. I'm so glad that I did because otherwise I would've been late. So I caught the express bus from Parramatta to Strathfield and I had time to grab a green tea latte from My Sweet Memory and I swear the person ignored my request for only 1 sugar because she gave me diabetes. There was no troubles on the way to Burwood but the way back was a different story, I had to take a train to Strathfield to change for a connecting express bus back to Parramatta. Except, the bus driver was an Asian woman, I don't mean to stereotype here but she is precisely the stereotype that we all envisage (no joke). She literally did a circle around the suburban streets of Strathfield just to do a 'U turn', the only thing I got out of it was new intel on houses that are on the market. Basically, the word express implies that the driver will take the fastest and shortest route right, well this bitch was far from it and by that I mean taking 30minutes just to get from Straithfield to Homebush which are neighbouring suburbs before semi following the train line and randomly making a  pitt stop at Lidcombe which completely defeats the purpose of an express bus. I seriously felt like integrating the bitch and asking her if she even knew the directions and that it we were supposed to head to P-A-R-R-A-M-A-T-TA and not C-A-B-RA-M-A-T-T-A. Okay I kinda being a little slack here but it was so frustrating I'm pretty sure you would have experienced something along those lines as well especially if the friggen woman takes away 1 hr extra of your time than was necessary. Oh Cityfail advises you to budget for an extra 30min yeah will try 1 hr, not cool! Yeah and to add insult to injury, she took al these congested suburban roads like those in Homebush, I mean hello did you not realise that it was lunchtime so everyone congregates in the town centre NOOB and I also had fish and prawns with me at the time, following up the request of my mother to buy some groceries so I wanted to get home ASAP. All in all, you know I hate Cityfail and I will gladly rant about them on any occasion that presents itself and today was no exception.

~ end of rant

Now moving on to why I was happy
First I went to UNSW and it was so good to see everyone. I should have captured that movie moment with Mv Rules when I surprised her from behind whilst subtly talking on the phone with her casually. Good catch up sesh with bro and Elisa especially with her advice on how to survive a mosh pit. I'm scared guys and you should be worried for my safety- who knows how crazy some hardcore k-pop fans can be. Should I bring my DSLR guys or should I leave that at home where it will definitely be safe from the dangers of a mosh pit.

Also shout out to my bro, Better, Batter, and everyone else doing Relay for Life tonight, I don't think you guys will be on blogger but you'll read this eventually right.

Guess what arrived in the mail today guys? The shipping was actually really fast....an expensive TT but that's DHL for you

 An almost 2 hour phone catch up convo with Sweet and me taking a photo to flaunt my new shirt to Elisa. I got her a matching pair (: I think I might wear this shirt to Uni on Monday like a cool kid!

 Nole scarf <3

And of course the best mug in the world

#412 - Sanguine disposition

03/05: The end of week 8, multiple tasks done, long phone call with Bitter (yay!), finally sat through the entire 3 hour lecture, somewhat unexpected good news. Since we got internet TV, I bemoan my lack of English shows (namely, SVU)...moreover, we always eat dinner at the perfect time for news *groan*
"Don't give up hope." 


04/05: relatively lazy day (: Also discovered the weirdest M/V ever...I don't know whether to laugh or be shocked.Ah the Japanese...quirkiest people ever :)
 

#411- Arghhh Facepalm

OMG OMG OMG I feel so bad at the moment. Basically if you read Happy Apple's latest post you might have some questions.....So I shall explain the story behind it, story is, Average and I visited her yesterday whilst she was volunteering before our 9 am classes. Then they joined me briefly in Fisher during my 4 hour break which was when my battery died so I could only check my messages when I got home and I found this really nice text wishing my good luck for the test that I just sat. I thought it was Happy Apple but the number that I had saved under her name didn't match so I started to run a mental list of names of people who I met yesterday who may or may not have my number. I'm just slightly paranoid because once I had someone call me asking for help about accounting homework which I don't even do until next semester. Yeah I got pretty worked up about who called me, it's like V with unknown numbers but this time the number is known and I'm really scared to call them and ask "who is this?"

Moving onto part 2 of the tale, so today on the train I wanted to confirm if it was Happy Apple that texted me because it was so nice and I really wanted to put a name to the number and text so I tried to confirm my number with 365 friend and SB but that failed. So I turned to Arabi and she had the same number for Happy Apple as me so I assumed that it wasn't her because if both of us had the same number then it must be someone entirely different. That's when some friends in the secret group came to visit me in Sci-tech library before we went to Mannings Bar for lunch. SO being the weirdo that DL is, he decided to call the person who texted me because he could and he felt like it and might I say that he is a horrible person when it comes to finding out people's names on the phone.

So moral of the story is that I owe Happy Apple a huge apology for putting her in such an awkward situation and message to everyone; please to tell me when you change your number like my gay lover who sent an amusing text telling us all about the disease that her iPhone contracted and how it inevitably succumbed to it slow and eventual death

#410 - Honestly cryptic

My head is full of thoughts and they're not going away.

1. I've got two personalities. Though they both make up "me", I don't like the person I am when placed in difficult "more-than-one" situations. There's been too many of them recently and I don't know how to change for the better. Quiet, twiddling my thumbs, desperate but don't know the way out, there but not there.

2. I feel so much hope for the future in all aspects of life - M approved my 'secret' ambition (will get D to approve in a bit!) and I am keeping my fingers and toes crossed for something I've been wanting for a long time now.

3. I always feel happy whenever I walk home and drivers let me cross the road =) I've mouthed "Thank you" over 20 times this year already. It's a small gesture, but it always brightens up my day and reminds me that niceness is still alive;

4. There's so many things I don't appreciate enough and always take things for granted. 
 
5. Almost became a victim of technological failure.. yes it does happen. Always back up important documents.

6. Campus is so beautiful,
