New footwear makes me happy.
Taking silly pictures with the girls makes me happy.
Having my nails match with my phone makes me happy.
Desserts makes me happy.
Anything with the word "come" and sounds sexually punny makes me laugh, which ultimately makes me happy.
Make up makes me happy.
Wanna know what else makes me happy?
I've got 2 more papers to go, and I'm done with SPM. And also the fact that I am going to college soon :)
Now that makes me happy.
is the first day of SPM.
Somehow I don't feel nervous or scared. I feel.. happy. Happy in a sense that I know that I'm getting out of high school soon, and into the real world.
Wish me luck.

Apart from that, tomorrow is also Mel's 20th birthday.
This post is dedicated to you, love.
Sometimes, I would look back at our photos and think to myself, "Wow, we actually first met on Facebook". Until now, I still think it's hard to believe. We would have random conversations about our first few dates and how shy we were.
Recently, Mel told me that he was actually shocked when he saw me for the first time on our first date because I looked bigger in real life than in photos. "And you still held my hand?", I asked. He replied, "That's because I know who you are and I don't care about your size".
I got this quote from tumblr, and it goes like this -
A real relationship : Has fights. Has trust. Has faith. Has tears. Has hurt. Has sweet smiles. Has genuine laughter. Has snorts because of the laughter. Has weird, stupid, unnecessary arguments. Has patience. Has communication. Has secrets. Has jealousy. And most importantly, love. This is all just a mess that turns out beautiful & an experience that can never be forgotten.
I am in a real relationship.
I am thankful because I know you, (and because of Facebook). I am thankful because I met you. Lastly, I am thankful to be your girlfriend.
Happy birthday Mel :)
Reina and I have been talking about post SPM plans since for-ever. And I thought, hey, why not blog about it and then strikeout those that I have done? :D So here goes..
1. Dye my hair
I'm sure you guys have already expected this :P Burgundy maybe?
2. Shopping with my African sister, Reina
Clothes, Stationary, MAKE-UP, and well maybe splurge on a basic black bra ;)
3. Get my ass into college
Possibly January intake.
4. Get into shape.
I have been overweight my whole life. I need/want to be slimmer :) Not stick thin, I love my curves.
Cute, but fat.
5. Get behind the wheel
That is, if I manage to convince Mum to pay and that I wouldn't wreck her car when I get the licence.
6. Movie marathon with my favourite girls :)
7. BBQ Party with the classmates!
8. Practice and improve my make up skills
Oh yes smokey eyes
(More to come)
I don't remember the last time being this proud of myself. I don't excel in studies or sports. I don't dance, I don't play any musical instrument, nor can I sing well.
But today, I am proud of myself.
I came back home from dinner with the girls around 10.30pm. Dad was sitting by the dining table, reading the night edition of the Chinese newspaper. "Where were you?", he asked with a stern voice. I told him where I was and what was I doing. I was expecting him to nag or scold me as he doesn't like it when I am out at night.
I showed the school magazine and told him that my design was chosen. He put aside the newspapers and looked at the cover. He went through the pages of the magazine one-by-one, asking me questions about my school. "Good", he said.
My Dad is not expressive with his thoughts and emotions - in other words, he's a typical China man. But somehow I could sense that he was proud of me.
I texted my Mum, telling her that I could "sense" my Dad's emotions. She replied "Good girl - Sure he's proud of you - me too :)"
Today, I am proud.
Yesterday, Kate-Lyn, Jaynelle and myself went over to Reina's place to study Accounts. I needed alot of help in Accounts since I could barely pass the subject :/ Reina's mum was also kind enough to cook lunch for all four of us. I told Reina that I am glad (well, not really) that I don't live here because I wouldn't be able to lose weight! Then her mum jokingly said "Aiyah, eat first then only lose weight!" ROFL, cute :P
I had loads of fun, I was pretty surprised that I managed to pay attention to what Reina was teaching. (TQ Ajumma :P) On the other hand, Kate-Lyn and Jaynelle were busy taking turns on going online :P
After studying, we went to Thai Kopitiam at Kuchai Entrepreneurs Park to chill and have our dinner :D
Belacan Fried Rice -RM6.90
Tom Yam Seafood Soup - RM 17.90
Pad Thai - RM7.90
