MYOB's first session today. Met gwen, malina, kt and vera before getting our lunch. Walked from Anchorpoint to the place, located in a car automative centre. What a place right? But there are actually offices above the showrooms. Plus, it wasn't rundown. hah! There were only fourteen of us. It wasn't as boring as how I thought it would be. How afraid I was initially when I thought the computing programme would be very complex. Thank God it wasn't to be. haha! Catching up with friends again was a good thing. We had fun mingling with those accounting programming stuff. And the best thing is that I've acquired something new. YAY! :)
Theres more to come. Its gonna be two long days.

Got to Vivo for the second time this week. Gawd, it was awfully packed! Lunched at Food Republic. Amazing. Amazing. In good company, eating excellent food. I like it very very much. Food Republic, a beautifully done up food court, which was slightly overpriced. The claypot laksa, hokkien mee, ngo hiang guang qiang etc. Ohmymama! It was heavenly. Spicy food always welcome. Love it. Loved it. Boy, spoil me rotten, feed me well. What's not to love? Licks ice-cream, absolutely sinful, Ben&Jerry's Dublin Mudslide. Woo! I was insanely happy. Look at me, raving about food. Indulging. Indulgence. The pig I am. Onto other things. haha.
Shopped. Shopped. Shopped. Shopped the whole time. :) Didn't feel homey for once. Got my STARBURST from Candy Empire. Jucilicious gummies! My favourite drug. I hope to find some in Aussie. Perhaps, I could get it cheaper over there. haha. I'm too damn lazy to write about everything. I'll leave to say it was a pretty long day.

Another day, and many hours gone. Woke up late and rushed to shower since I was supposed to meet my cousin at Easpoint at 11.45am. Decided on lunch at Sakae to salvage our sushi cravings! Oh food glorious food! Its been some time since I've mouthed on jap food. It was GOOODDD!! We well ate like gluttons and felt shitty full after that. Okay, I sounded damn deprived, don't I?
Anyway, shopped around with him till noon and along the way, managed to get some accessories for myself. YAY! Oh well, we cabbed back to my place after that. And damn, the driver took the long route when she could have used the ECP route. We were too busy with our conversation that we forgot to inform her of the route to use and it caused us a few cents extra. You might be thinking its only a mere few cents, but its still money! hah! My cousin insisted paying for the fare though, since mommy asked me to pay for the lunch.
Went for swimming although the sky was pretty dark. No one was swimming and we had the entire pool to ourselves. We continued swimming even after it started pouring. Soaked in the hot bubbling jacuzzi! Ah! Amazingly, the blur guards didn't seem to stop us despite the rain.
At home, we lazed on the couch watching cable. By the way, theres some really good movies and programmes on cable this month. At the moment, I'm addicted to HBO. haha.
Alright, we're walking out to Gelare to eat again. OREO CHEESECAKE I'm coming for you! :)

Headed for Vivo City today with my friends and sis. I had never been there before, so everything was new to me. Vivo was amazingly huge that we got lost a few times. It was human-jam packed even though its a weekday.
Lunched at Carl's Jr, which cost me a whopping 11 bucks. The burger was a large portion that I struggled to finish. Shopped around thereafter. Vivo's got practically every shop under its roof. So many shops that I couldn't afford with my 60 bucks. I'm terribly broke! I promise myself more cash when I go there the next time. Oh well, I still had fun anyway.
Caught the movie, STEP UP! Its been months sice I've last been to a cinema. The movie was really good. Sis caught it for the second time. They've got some really awesome dance grooves in it. Gawd! Channing Tattum's as hot as ever! The movie has a nice storyline to it although it was somewhat predictable. The soundtracks of the movie are playing in my head!
After the movie ended, we continued shopping. Manage to get some stuff that caught my eye. :) My shopping lists has greatly expanded! I must drag mum there one day when she's free. She's my cash supply! haha. Haven't manage to finish shopping though. There would definitely be more to come.

11 months of heavy preparations and revision for three years of work was not an easy job. A long gruelling time. On the other hand, time passes pretty fast as I was busy most of the time. From day one, I've been looking forward to today, where I would be officially released from secondary school. I'm glad to say that the O's are over! Yeah, FREEDOM! I yearned for this day so much till my head often felt like it was going to burst from all the wishing and hoping.
The 11 months have been draining, challenging, full of ups and downs and full of tears and heartache. I have made myself miserable, my parents worry. I have in the process grown somewhat bitter and resentful.
5 years of wearing the white school blouse, the tie and the blue skirt has been an experience I would never forget. Despite having faced so many stumbling blocks, I have come out a much stronger person (I hope). I have learnt and seen many things. I have seen for myself, who are the people who would stick by you, I have made wonderful friends, I have seen that I can do whatever I put my mind to. I hope that I have stepped out wiser.
Having said that, I dont regret the 5 years. I don't wish that none of the untoward happened and I dont wish that it would have turned out another way as I believe that it was something that I had to go through. I mean everthing happens for a reason and I cannot be anymore satisfied with the way things have worked out for me.
At the end of all this, I only have this to say. Ever so often, we are blinded by what we want and what we desire and in the middle of a storm, the only thing we can ever see are the raindrops and the lightning bolts before us. We just have to sit through the storm. Of course, everything I say now is in retrospect, but having the bravery, courage and resilience is something that only we can unlock from within us.
After all this, I can only hope that I am prepared for what is to come and that somehow, I would be able to cope and face the new chapter of my life, hopefully in a polytechnic.
The closure of one chapter, the start of something better.
