I wanna have abs.
Little update again before life gets busy for me cause school officially starts next week.
First week is orientation week, so basically there's no lessons. Followed by that would be teaching weeks, and that's when tutorials and lectures begin. Matriculated this morning and apparently only one of my og mates is in the same class as me :(
Oh god why?!
I pray hard that my classmates are friendly people please.
So for the past week I managed to meet Lansin & Niki :)
Felt that I was finally back to my "family" cause they are the ones I really feel comfortable with aww!
Lansin came over on the 25th as her work got cancelled and we spent the afternoon HTHT. Met her the next day as well for my medical checkup and TDKR tgt! Always feels like home whenever I see her, she's really motherly and protective you'll just wanna be vulnerable next to her haha!
A photoshoot with fiance on saturday after my mass og outing at sentosa! I practically camped the whole day at sentosa luh please. The photoshoot ended quicker than I had expected it to be and I hope the photos are pretty cause I had a tan ._____. Dinz with Kendrik's family after the shoot, haha I think I'm like a gatecrasher please. But if you were to choose between tiong bahru chicken rice with some strangers and steamboat with your gf and her bf's family, the choice is obvious isn't it? :P Am so glad I made the correct choice cause Kendrik's family are damn cool, especially the mum! I wish my mum was like that omg. At one moment I felt so envious of fiance haha, I want a MIL like kendrik's mum! The best part of that night was the drinking session with fiance & Kendrik at Cuscaden @ Chijmes, where we just chillax and chat <3

Ok so here comes the main point of this post - count your blessings.
So every night before I sleep, I would playback the events that happened for that day, and sometimes regret doing certain stuff or think about what I should have said instead. Sometimes I rejoice for the things done right and sometimes I appreciate how life has been good to me.
It's kinda like self reflection?
Which to me, is a really big deal cause it is only through self reflection that you see who you truly are, your weakness and strengths, what you lack of - which drives self improvement and the need for appreciation! Makes you feel optimistic as well lol.
It's a very simple sentence that you just have to construct,
"I'm blessed for..."
For me, I'm blessed for...
1. being born as my mama's daughter, for she teaches me the correct values I need & shower me with overwhelming care and concern
2. having a responsible dad who works hard everyday to feed the family, unlike some of my relatives who are not as well off as me
3. having a sibling who kept me companied by playing with me during my childhood
4. being born in Singapore, (yes, I'm patriotic)
5. having awesome friends that I never knew I would be able to find! <3
... and the list goes on!
I like reflecting because it shows me what I have and should be thankful of, to appreciate the people around me and not take them for granted. It makes me feel loved and all warm inside to see people caring for me, thus I owe many a big THANK YOU for the littlest efforts put in for me!
To Mumsie:

To Lansin:

STAY POSITIVE ALWAYS, YOU KNOW THAT LIFE ISN'T ALL ABOUT SORROW RIGHT? :) I'M HAPPY TO KNOW THAT WE THINK ALIKE MOST OF THE TIMES, THAT WE SHARE SIMILAR POV AND BELIEFS.
