[BACKTRACKED] APRIL

(blogged last night, but was save as draft)
(also a lengthy post, read at own risk)

To prevent this post being REALLY LENGTHY, 'll skip ahead and go straight to the point then!

Went for supper with the uni mates back on 2nd April, to Fat Boys @ Upper Thomson Road.

Was rly late meeting up at AMK Park's Mcd. Wilson drove both Kenneth and me down (xie xie Wilson) to meet up with the rest who already reached.

Good supper @ Fat Boys, before buying tau huey @ Rocher Tau Huey just opposite, and took more than 15mins to find the next place for chilling session. Settled at Yishun Dam and chatted before going home at 2am cos the rest have lesson the next day. (again xie xie Wilson for fetching me back)


Accidentally left my phone at Angie's car, and i collect it from her on Friday instead @ her work place.

Finally headed to BBDC to get my account topped up to book for lessons on Friday as well and i think i went to meet the man for dinner?

Next,

Went for KBox session @ Cathay Cineleisure and Xcape after school on 8th April. Signed up for the student KBox card, cos was rly cheapskate - card + kbox = $20, without card + kbox = $30. U TELL ME I SHOULD MAKE THE CARD OR NOT. #typicalsingaporean #sibeikiamsiap #savewhateveryoucan

Walked down to Bugis Street (Rocher Road), and went for our Xcape Room Season 2 session at 530pm. Had booked the Resident Evil session, and it's soooooooooooooooooo brain cells killing. BUT SRSLY, it's rly a good experience. $22/pax for NON-PEAK hours, recommended some of my friends to go as well.


Didn't manage to get out of the room successfully, BUT NVM GOOD EXPERIENCE.

Xcape Singapore (Season 2)
Bugis Village
160A Rocher Road Level 2
S188435
Tel: 6337-4905
(above Qiji Restaurant)


After which, settled our dinner at Pasta Mania and have our dessert at Ah Chew Dessert just opposite Bugis Junction.

Impromptu gaming session after dessert @ Underground, near to POMO. We named that day as "丢钱的一天", spent $$ like free flow only please.

Took Red line home and caught the last 88 back home, cos there's no more 72/ 70 by the time i reached YCK Mrt Station.


Next,

Spent most of the weeks having meet up with the man, or did revision at my usual place, or watching my Triumph in the Skies/ Triumph in the Skies 2.
A lot of last minute hug Buddha's leg for exams this time round, AND I RLY RLY RLY REGRET IT. I need to find my last sem's motivation back..... kinda flunk most of my assignments this semester as well, NOT LIKE I FAIL, IT'S JUST DISAPPOINTING ):

I REALLY WANT TO PRAY HARD THAT I COULD CLEAR ALL FOUR MODULES THIS SEMESTER, PLEASE BLESS ME, AMEN.

Took SM paper samples from the rest, and almost wanna burn all the sample and drink it, COS NOTHING WENT IN. But thank god i manage to do the 2 questions during exam, and really attempt to throw dice for the MCQ. SM was the first module for exam this semester, and it's enough to freak me out, BUT IDK WHY AM I STILL SO CHILLED EARLIER ON.

Tbh, i did not really studied for both Ethics & Governance/ Accounting papers, TWO PAPERS IN ONE DAY I KNOW (everybody blessing me good lucks thank you all for showering the lucks to me rly appreciate many many and love you guys mwah), I REALLY HOPE I COULD PASS BOTH. Ethics is rly........ idk, i cld only use disgusting to describe it. WTH IS VIRTUE ETHICS????? Bombed whatever i could EVEN BARELY remembered, i flunk my Ethics's assignment pretty badly, i needa stay positive over whether 'm able to pass this paper OR not.

Accounting paper was right after Ethics paper (2h later), sux i know and imagine your brain alrdy malfunctioning ):
Accounting paper was O-K, it's either REALLY MANAGEABLE, or this is my 3rd try alrdy, THAT'S WHY it's manageable???!!!

After Accounting paper, was rly fly up to da skyyyyyyyyyyy~ three papers down, so 'm like partially free bird. I could even go down to Golden Mile Complex from school to Naked Skin Tattoo (NST), to have consultation session with Darryl. LOL (apparently this darryl was the blogger's bf who was is the saga recently, if u guys ever stalk famous sg bloggers)

We cld actually discussed for more than 30mins on the designs for covering up my current tatt, and making it more bolder, bigger but feminine still (i requested it), he promised to get the designs done by 3-4 days, and as of now... it's alrdy 10 days and i have yet to hear from him )))))): 'm pretty worried that he had forgotten about my appointment )::::

Last paper was Sales Strategy, and it's Open book paper. BUT IT WAS JUST AS DISGUSTING!!!! Imagine it's OPEN BK, but the answer cannot be FOUND at all in both lecture slides or external sources. I could still feel that panic attack over it sighhhhhh

Let's not think about exams anymore and sincerely pray hard i could clear all four modules this semester. MAY GOD BLESS, AMEN FOR THE RESULT I GET AND BE RELEASED ON 29TH MAY.

Gan pua dress down for my last paper, cos i couldn't be bothered with anything AT ALL.


#laiyigeootd #extremedressdownyoumeiyou

Met up with Wilson, Kenneth and Naz after paper in school and cabbed down to Purvis Street for our Xcape session.

Went for the Xcape Season 1 this time round, and the finale was on 27th April, SO PPL, IT ALRDY ENDED AH. Chose the Whisper of the Dead theme, and managed to escape the room, cos the game master help us for 3-4 times, when we didn't ask him for clues. Probably because of this..... we ended up feeling that Whisper of the Dead wasn't as exciting/ fun compared to Resident Evil.


Went to The Cathay to get our dinner settled and i headed home right after, cos my exams was 3 DAYS CONTINUOUSLY (23rd April - 25th April for 4 papers), surviving on 2h-5h sleep ONLY, and i have work on the next day as well..... so gave Pool a miss, and they went on with it.

4 words that day after dinner - GAN PUA SHAG LIAO

1st day back to work after 3 weeks hiatus on 26th April, thank god it's only 6.5h shift


#lovefactoriefittingrooms #bestootdplace

NTUC with the mother at night after work, sibei shag i can't even think........ I remembered i concussed on bed for more than 12h that day after which, #muchneededsleep #welldeservedrest


OKAY SQUEEZE A MONTH LONG POST TO 1 POST, SIBEI ZAI LIAO.

TILL THEN -

{BACKTRACKED} 2 Degree Ice Art Exhibition

Went for the 2 degree Ice Art Exhibition back last month on 30th March 2014.


It was supposed to be an NYPLD outing, but it become a combined gathering for NYPLD and SPDLDC.
BUT TeamSP wasn't able to make it since they've their own gathering, so we went ahead by ourselves cos xiao jie, me have exams on April, and i can't make it on Sunday(s) in April.

Met the rest at Bayfront Circle Line Station, and waited for Weizhe to reached.

Some of us managed to get the student price discount, THANK GOD WE BROUGHT ALONG OUR NYP STUDENT PASS. LOL. So instead of $32/pax, we managed to get into the exhibition at $20/pax inclusive of all the thick coats and gloves.

Group shot by professional first before entering!



Pix as below, must pardon all the blurred shots, BECOS IT'S FREAKING COLD INSIDE. And iPhone can't sense our finger clicking on to the button COS OF THE DAMN GLOVES.
And we resort to taking off our gloves just to take pix ><








That's the "Jiaqi" shot. 









As we're able to re-enter once more after you get out once, got this shot done chop chop before running out of the place. Edmund wasn't with us, cos he was taking care of Zolynne's friend - Weipin. -insert smirk face-

 But nevertheless, this is one of my favourite shot of the day!! :D

Stayed outside for around 45mins, before re-entering with a different color coats from the first time (if you notice).



Both Yang and Weizhe act hero, and went in with the coats and glove, BUT NEVER WORE IT.

(act hero somemore, think they fell sick after that day LOL)


If you guys remembered, this is on my Instagram!

As usual, a one-to-one shot with all the favourite humans of NYPLD!



Xinky!
Edmund!
 Weizhe!
 Zolynne!
 Esther!
 Weipin!
 Cai!
 Yang!
 Mandy jie!

Went to play with the slides and bumper ride, but a pity we didn't get a full video shot of all.




1pm, 4pm, 7pm, was the "Snow-Releasing" timing, and we just nice was in time for the 7pm. RAN AND CHIONG WITH THE REST TO STAY UNDER THE SNOW.





Couldn't stand the coldness/ numbness anymore, so we ran out right after the snow-releasing.

Left the exhibition and last minute decision to eat at Swee Choon for dinner. Thank you to the boyfriend for reaching earlier than us and get seats for us!


Took bus back to Bugis Junction, cos we're all damn shag out after staying inside the exhibition for hours!

Ate dessert with all of them before leaving for home!




Had a good day spent with the favorite humans. More outings to come after this, ANNUAL CHALET IN MAY YAYYYY

Will update again REALLY SOON.

Till then.

10th NTU Institutional Lion Dance Competition

An annual affair for all the primary/ secondary/ institutes' lion dance troupes/ clubs or wtv.

Been awhile since i last went for competition, gave up for the last year's Taka Zonal, cos lion head was down on Dengue, so got no choice. And last year's NTU, NYP didn't took part, cos we've not enough time/ lion head or tail to compete, so what's the point.

Supposed to meet up in NYP at 1230pm, but i happily reached at 1pm. #whatsnew #foreverlate #imthelatequeen. Skipped lunch, cos it's chicken rice, and i had been telling them "i wanna shit leh" even before i reached NYP.
Changed, and rehearsed for the last time, before heading down to The Cathay, everythings in a rush, cos our lorry was 1hour late as well.

P/S: ALL PHOTOS CREDIT TO CIEN!





Settled down after we reached The Cathay, and we're the 3rd team to compete!



 Finally a proper group photo with coach and Jiji!


Coach briefed us and tell us which direction the lion, props and instrument should be facing.







Last rehearsal with the instrument side,


 The girls with our very very supportive senior, Cien!



Right after we're done with rehearsal, it's our turn to go in.





Everything was swift and fast, after 10mins gone, we're out of the competition ground.






HI! DID U SEE ME THERE????? *insert smirk face*


Mandy's drum stick flew at the start of the competition, and the joke just started from them. We don't blame her, since it's only a competition for the juniors to gain exposure.
IF mandy never drop the drum stick, Niancai won't be playing soccer with Mandy (inside joke), and our time will be lessen, and we'll be lack of time when the competition is finish, and minus point.

SO........
WELL DONE TEAM NYP!!! IMPROVE IMPROVE CLAP CLAP!!! 8.15! We can do better next time!

After competition is over, had a group photo with the troupes under Shifu. But i couldn't get hold the one with Xinyang.

So here's 南洋理工龙狮团 and 新狮!


Sadly, Coach and Jiji wasn't in the photo. Ci en and Gary left first, or else it will be a waaaaay more proper group photo with Team SP.

All in all, THANK YOU CIEN FOR ALL THE SUPPORT, CONTRIBUTION AND TAKING OF PHOTOS.
THANK YOU COACH AND JIJI FOR COMING DOWN TO COACH US DESPITE THEIR HECTIC SCHEDULE.
THANK YOU TO ALL THE MATES FOR PUTTING IN EFFORT FOR THIS COMPY.
THANK YOU JIABEI/ TEAM SP FOR THE AWESOME CUPCAKES BAKED FOR US AS ENCOURAGEMENT.



I LOVE ALL OF U MWAHHHHH


Will blog again, till then........
