A little self-awareness.

I had this conversation with a friend a couple of days ago,
and we reached the conclusion that I'm a very boring and practical, down-to-earth person.
(Well at least I don't engage in the activities many my age would consider happening, simply cos I don't like or derive any joy out of it)

But I actually really like who I am,
not having to care what other people think about me, doing the things that make me happy,
and as boring as the things I like to do are,
or more accurately, Aunty - old-fashioned,
I am glad I know the things I love to do,
and I'm glad I'm me.

It's been a while since I last felt this worthy of myself,
but it's good to know that I could make a difference and bring a smile to someone's face.
I guess that's what life is about, isn't it?

These priceless moments,
knowing no knowledge, money or time can ever get.

I really must exist for a purpose much larger than myself.

Perpetually behind readings every single week.
Need to study harder, put in more effort!
Let's go, me, press on, me!!!

"But I have come to learn that life is not about winning philosophical arguments, it is about love, relationship and grace. It is about whether the ideas we hold can make us better people. You can win an argument but lose your witness."

Too beautiful (':

If there's a prize for the fastest passing month,
it'd definitely go to September.

The week's got me thinking about a lot of things,
and in many ways I feel really exhausted already.

I guess my brother got it right when he said that one day I'm gonna get so tired of saying yes to everything and everybody that even to they simplest thing I'll now say no.
And I'm feeling exactly that way right now.

To be honest I feel really drained in every single aspect of my life,
mentally, physically and spiritually.

And I'm so tempted to throw in the towel.
But I know that's not quite possible because these obligations that I've undertook for myself can't be gotten rid of that easily.
I guess the only thing that's keeping me going now is my break in Israel for six months next year.

Til then,
I've got to keep giving my best.

Missing the oldest brother tonight,
if he were around, I'd have someone to go cafe hopping with, someone to catch Phantom of the Opera with, someone to talk about anything and everything with, someone to make me feel more matured than I already am.

Ahh I just can't wait for him to be back.
(:
Which is soon and I'm gonna show off to all my friends what an amazing pastry chef he is,
and more importantly what the bestest oldest brother he is.

On another note,
it was Annabel's 21st birthday today and she threw her party at Hotel Rendezvous.
Really meticulous and well-planned.

Went a little overboard with the photobooth, but it really was super cool.
(:

Blessed 21st dearest Anna.

My dearest Chermmy.

The beautiful Hotel Rendezvous.

Been feeling under the weather the past couple of days,
largely because I haven't been getting enough sleep.

Anyway it was a pretty good weekend.

Friday night dinner with my Friday Favorites.
Even though the food was substandard, the company was all that mattered.

Supper later that night with Amanda, Salad, Benji, Kelly and Joel because it was Joel's first book out.
And I felt bad because I keep harping on the fact that I lost my cash card that contained 96$.
):
I just am super unlucky, careless and stupid.

Saturday was the busiest because I had class in the morning,
followed by a really quick catch-up lunch with Daniel at Holland Breko's,
and rushed down to Sentosa to set up the hotel for Joel's 21st.

But I'm really glad that the surprise was a success.
(:
Pictures from the rest of the night.

Always a fan of Sum Kee Restaurant.

Happy 21st Joel (:

Stressful week ahead, but I'd get through it anyway.
Wish me luck (:

September;

Trying my best to be the best that I can be!!!!!
