Chiong is the predominant theme

Chiong ah CHiong ah chiong chiong chiong

I made a very ambitious move by emailing my dean that i am going to send her all the required documents by the end of next week. Which i know is impossible for me to achieve.

Andddd I've registered to present at an International Congress this May, on behalf of the research team.

Its gonna be a longggg and torturous week. I just hope I don't gas out. *chokes*

Everything is going to be fine.

It will. You have to believe that.

"Though the fig tree does not bud
and there are no grapes on the vines,
though the olive crop fails
and the fields produce no food,
though there are no sheep in the pen
and no cattle in the stalls,
YET I will rejoice in the LORD,
I will be joyful in God my Savior.”



~Habakkuk 3:17-18

Be strong. It's okay.

I am responsible for taking care of myself. And if i don't do that, no one else will.

Diana Krall - Almost Blue

Almost blue
Almost doing things we used to do
There's a boy here and he's almost you

Almost all the things that your eyes once promised
I see in his too
Now your eyes are red from crying
Almost blue

Flirting with this disaster became me
It named me as the fool who only aimed to be

Almost blue
It's almost touching it will almost do
There's a part of me that's always true...always

Not all good things come to an end now, it is only the chosen few
I've seen such an unhappy couple

Almost me, almost you, almost blue.

Richard Clayderman-Nostalgia

My favorite piano piece of all time by Richard Clayderman.

Darling, every little thing is gonna be alright.

Work

Bed.

Just one of thsoe times when i get onto tumblr as a reward to myself after completing an assignment.

Yes, feasting my eyes on beautiful images is good rest for me.

I have no idea what drove me to reblog this picture but it just seems so forlorn yet quietfully beautiful. Images likes these spirit me away from the emptiness and the stress I face everyday.

Anyway, I've got nothing interesting to share, except for an update about my increased workload.

I've yet to officially start on my thesis writing. And today i did some interesting analysis with my professor. We're going to publish my findings, and hopefully the maternity hospitals in Singapore will act on the recommendations and be aware of some disconcerting issues that pervade healthcare for women.

Truly, i can't wait to start writing about them, especially after personally hearing from the participants in my study. I've learnt so much through this research and from writing Evidence based practice assignments. I do suppose they'll be useful for my professional development.

Although, right now. I'm feeling very demoralized because the only ward that i could feel comfortable working in has demolished.

Now i have no idea where I am going to graduate to. The thought of a very bleak and stressful working life makes me shudder.

For some reason, I feel very alone in my struggles.

I'm a workaholic, so eventually I predict that my health will be jeopardized. And then I'll die.

That's really all there is to my life, my reality.

My only escapade is in looking at beautiful images on tumblr.

I hope, for my sake, that I do not see you tomorrow.

Stuck in my head.

今晚，很想一个人静一静。

Come On Baby

You silly girl

Earth revolves around the sun
Not you.

I really have to get down to heck load of serious business.

The deadline does not get extended just because I'm sleepy.

Enjoy the moment!

You take the magic out of life when you try too hard to control everything.

Midnight Cupcakes

I'm damn sleepy. But I gotta do work.

So a quickie.







Orgasmic, might I say.

These days I feel totally "out of sorts".

Work is the only motivation in life right now.

And my friends keep me hanging on.

If only you didn't think so much with your dick.

Sunset

We were standing at the horizon, and we watched a beautiful sunset.

You turned to me, and asked, "Isn't it beautiful?"

Just as a gorgeous day is ending, so i proceed into darkness.


Time to chiong.

I seriously wonder why one would ever think of stalking me, because I am the most uninteresting person to walk this planet.

Courage

A few days before bible study, I had a vision of You walking to my bedside as I was praying. You handed me a sword with a kind gentle smile on your face.

I heard and knew, what You meant.

Courage.

I was praying because I was scared. I didn't know how to control the situation. I couldn't help myself.

Pastor talked about one part of the Chronicles of Narnia during Bible study.

The part where Lucy and the Lion stood aside and watched while Peter fought against the evil forces. Wolves were howling.

Lucy begged the Lion to help her brother. But the Lion said, "He has a sword" and continued watching as Peter fought to victory.

Pastor beckoned us to stand up and fight. Be prince and princesses.

Sometimes God doesn't step in, because it is through the fights and struggles in our lives, that we become prince and princesses for God.

The Lord equips me with a sword. He will not allow the flames to consume my being. He gives me all I need to fight. I know that I can draw strength from Him.

Perhaps I do not understand what this victory is, but i know i will eventually.

Someday.

Hi.

Sorry to appear out of nowhere. It's just suddenly, I remember that I have a blog.

Be right back I need to pee.

Shit. Why are we so popular?

Nude Matte Lipstick

I bought this Matte lipstick by NYC today

- from school, at only $10.

Its amazing what gorgeous deals a step away from my lecture halls has to offer.

There were tons of Elf makeup, bronzing powder in particular, which caught my eye. And then i remembered that I have a M.A.C. mineralize skinfinish bronzer that I haven't touched, so i restrained my shopaholic self.



I bought the NUDE color.

It was so successfully nude-ish that when i tried it on, I looked like I had a hemoglobin level of 3.

It is about 5 times lighter than my natural lip color, although after awhile, it blended a little better.

Still I looked a little ghostly, especially since I hadn't thoroughly cleansed off the smudged eyeliner around the rims of my eye.

Okay, what a superficial post.

I just thought i could make Weiyu a little bit jealous about my buy. Matte lipsticks are her favorite.

Now, don't cry. Don't.

Photography

My hands itched for the camera when this gorgeous Minnie Mouse illustration caught my eye.


Its a gorgeous chocolate tin box and a gift from a really wonderful friend of mine! I can't wait to eat its contents.


I found this image in my memory card and would like to commend the photographer responsible for it.

I'm in love with it. Only because I think the purple thing is adorable, whatever it is.

My literature review assignment grades came out today, and Thank God I didn't fail.

Life is quite as amazing as my hair. It doesn't look too bad now.

Itacho Sushi. YEA

Hi World!

Lately, I've had a surge of hormones, thus experienced feelings of slight emo-ness, which i felt suffocated from.

Actually I have nothing to share except for how awesome I am feeling today.

2 more participants recruited today, and I had Awesome Jap food at Itacho Sushi Restaurant in Ion Orchard, carefully selected to be priced at only $1o++. We chose wisely.

I'm quite surprised at the bill, because I'd eaten top notch Japanese food. Sashimi that's fresh to the bone... and awesome tasting sushis that thoroughly satisfied my palette.

And of course, we were trying to look our best while savoring our sumptuous dinner.



This is grilled salmon sushi, at $0.40 each. It tastes awesome, actually every dish does. We had this for appertizers while we were choosing our food because there is a daily limit for this dish. 4 is allowed per person only.



Time to drool! Fresh to the bone!



They have the best Tamago eggs I have ever eaten. That's also probably because I've only had the cheap ones from Cold storage.



Sushi with cheese. and shrimp. Love the cheese, hate the smell of dried shrimp.



Salmon roll and lobster. Yum.

Spicy salmon handroll. Hey, its better than i thought!

I know you can't see the salmon because of the photo effect but, live with it.

Then we decided to go to walk around to look at more street food.

But our mouths itched for more, and we got Yoghurt.

We asked the dude to take a picture for us, but he presented us with this.

We then corrected him, and asked him to take a picture for us, pointing to ourselves.

And he did.

Its a lovely start to a new school term.

I'm just super worried that I cannot hit the required number before the month ends.

Hmm.

You're in this fantasy world of your own, and then suddenly you realize that you're dreaming.

This isn't real.

And you know that at some point, you have to wake up and come back to reality.

To reality.

Lighten Up, it's New Year's Day.

It's New Year's Day but I'm feeling blue, thanks to the hormones.

And I haven't made my New Year's resolution because I was just lazy and tired, and I procrastinate too much.

I have another interview tomorrow and I'm nervous as usual.

Life just isn't the greatest these days.

Tracgers' Christmas Gathering

Had fun with my homies while reliving our childhood memories.

I miss life when we were young and naive.

Or maybe it was just me, still am.

"Friends Forever!" we used to say that so often to every person we knew as we penned our autographs in our friends' books. It was a trendy thing to do in those days.

I'm glad that we did remain close friends years down the road, hopefully, this shall last forever. :)

Nothing is impossible, the word itself says "I'm Possible"!

- Audrey Hepburn

You are the Reason I Live

Because this Christmas is all about You!

Merry Birthday, Father! <3
