  • New Year's Resolutions

    First of all, I'd like to wish you a very happy and blessed new year ahead.

    Seeing how 'often' I blog, I am not surprised that I'm the only reader for this page now. Nonetheless, I'll still keep this site alive once in a while.

    In the past few years, I did not bother setting out new year's resolutions because I knew that I would not be able to keep up with them. However, I am going to point out a few things that I aim to do. After all, failing to plan means planning to fail isn't it? At least I still get 10% of chance in achieving something.. :P

    1) STUDY HARDER
    I am ashamed to say that I had my slackiest semester last year. I am not going to emphasize on how lazy I was (because I believe my parents would stumble across my page somehow) but I know that I should not continue the kind of lifestyle that I had. After all I must constantly remind myself that I am still a student and my priority in life at this moment is not only to get a degree, but to achieve high grades! Why? Because EVERYONE is a university graduates and a degree itself is not able to do you good.

    Thus, I aim to get at the least 2 H1's per semester for now. As I progress in uni, everything is going to be harder. I will not be lucky all the time and get satisfactory grades even when I slack.

    2) Make Dancing A Routine
    I hope I do not lose my determination in dancing soon. I need to get committed into dancing when I return to Melbourne. I mentioned that I aim to join a dancing competition but I realised that it would be hard to achieve within this year. Though however, I must complete 5 different types of ballroom dancing by this year. Dancing is a good form of exercise which is interesting. Did I mention how hard it is for me to drag myself to the gym because it is just boring stuff. I cannot keep up with boring stuff, sad. Dancing suits me better, wish me luck!

    3) Change my sleeping pattern
    Ever since God knows when, my sleeping pattern has gone haywire. I become such a nocturnal person that at some point it felt early to be sleeping at 2am. I am contradicting my resolution now because it is already 4.24am and I am still blogging. I want to make it a habit to wake up at 8-9am and NOT feeling tired or dead. Health wise, it will definitely improve my overall complexion, not forgetting other factors in the body. Psychology wise, I will feel like a better and healthier person and not some useless junkie who sometimes misses out sunlight. (Exam period is excused though, I am the kind of person who can only study at night! Maybe this is an excuse, but I'll stick with this :)   )

    4) Eat more Vegetables and Fruits (And maybe less wagyu.. :P )
    I am a meat person, confirmed. Ask my friends and people around me and you will know how faithful I am towards meat. This is related to health issue. Knowing that I am already 21, passing my teenage years and am already an adult, I think it is better to prevent than cure. It is never too early to start preventing yourself from getting high blood pressure, heart diseases and diabetes yes? I haven't got an idea on how to start doing this, but I guess I will try to cook more vegetables that I like whenever I prepare meals. Spinach FTW :D

    5) Quit Desserts!
    Okay, or maybe once every fortnight..

    Okay, 5 aims for now. At least these seem possible to achieve.

    I have to start packing, will be going back to Melbourne tomorrow. 1.5 months till I'm home again *looks forward*!

    And guess what, I'm about to break my 4th target. I have made a booking at a Jap restaurant which serves unlimited wagyu beef. Very marbled, very fattening, very yummm.All.You.Can.Eat.

    Next Monday :)

    So much for new year's resolutions!

  • My Summer Hols thus far..

    It involves a lot of dancing and babysitting, which I ain't complaining :)

    Considering how slack I am, I am considering to enter a dancing competition in the near future to keep myself motivated. My stretching progress is going downhill right now.. Hm! I am aiming to get a partner when I get back to Melb and learn all different types ballroom dances. By the way, I don't feel like going back to Melbourne as soon now.. Home is too good to be true!

    Since Ally is a hip hop dance teacher, I'll be joining her class starting from tomorrow! I'm feeling quite excited about this.. Now let's keep our fingers crossed that I don't fall from dancing. I need to work out on my balancing, a lot!

    Christmas caroling on Tuesday.. Would it be weird if I just pop up out of nowhere?

    Gonna be cooking soon. I made cheesecake again last night and half of has already ended up in my family's tum tums :D

    If only I could be an apprentice of a super chef one day. I love cooking <3

  • 8am

    Woke up early to revise business finance, there's a mid-sem test later at 4pm and I am sooo not prepared. Sigh, it's my fault that I only started studying yesterday and I didn't know there're so many formulas and maths involved! As if cram mathematics

    Blogging when you're stressed is a pretty good way to release tension.. imho.

    I'll just take this as a warning from God, telling me not to slack anymore as it's already week 6.

    Gonna be in Sydney for the weekend. Hopefully everything will turn out well as I will be performing my salsa for TVBJ Carnival and also singing for charity night. No time to practise for both of them yet, my bad.

    Gotta go to the library now before I sit for the test. Wish me luck!

  • Missing the Pageant Girls

    After two months of trainings and rehearsals, the Miss Melbourne Chinese Pageant is finally over. I have to admit that I miss the girls much more than I expected. Funny how when you're in a competition but you do not feel the competition because everyone has become such close friends. I'm definitely gonna miss those times when we were all forced to attend trainings and rehearsals. Location shoot was one of the best experiences in my life too.

     
    Peninsula Hot Spring ^^

     
    Our very first compulsory event =)

          

    These people have become a part of my life. I was thinking if I should expose this blog to you girls (because I've never asked anyone to read my blog, even most of my friends from M'sia don't know bout this site. I blog to practise my typing speed HAHA :P)


    I know very well that people in my life do come and go. I'm ready to accept the fact that people don't stay close forever; but I really want to jot this down because this whole event and process has become such an important part of my life. Even if some of us may lose contact in the future; or if we happen to not talk anymore, please remember that each one of you has left such great and sweet memories in my life and I will never forget anyone of you.
    (Let's not worry bout this thanks to Facebook :D )



    1) Meng - One of the few girls that I remember from interview day. I remember how I told my mum that you were very attractive and how confident you looked. I enjoyed giving you lifts whenever we headed to Boxhill because I didn't have to drive alone and you could keep me company =) Thanks for ur breadtop (Lucy u too LOL) Thanks for constantly telling me that I am beautiful and trying to boost my confidence, I really appreciate it. I think you're a smart girl and I'm sure you're going to live happily ever after with your boyfriend/fiance.


    2) Christina - You're really pretty and you have such a sweet voice. You sing so well and I won't be surprised if you have an album in the future, or I may see you at some gig. I won't leave you a longgggg message because I expect to see a lot of you in the future, considering we're attending the same Uni and have quite a number of mutual friends!
     

    3) Yours truly


    If we all had a nose job..

    4) Betty -  You do really kickass chinese dance! Sorry for always teasing you when you spoke really fast mandarin --> "Chicken chicken nugget nugget" HAHAHA. It's supposed to be 这个这个那个那个 (zhe ge zhe ge na ge na ge). You made me laugh so hard when you were sleeping like an object and Lucy put stuff on top of you and you moved HAHAHA.


    Happy Birthday Betty =)

    5) Nancy - my darling! You are a very, very sweet girl who swore at me -_- I can be a pain in the butt when we have to wake up at 5 in the morning to get our hair and make up done but I know that you secretly LOVED IT!! Don't deny. I was so happy to see you today, make it a habit to meet up every Tues!

    You have really pretty features and I mean it. I HATE U lol! And I really like your boobs!


     
    6) Lucy - Lucy lucy.. The first girl that I talked to on interview day. You're very pretty, confident and CUTE. Your huge appetite always remind me of Gabby, my bff from M'sia. You girls have the same height, same personality, same appetite and same crazy laughter! I reckon you're gonna be one of the girls that will remain close with me even after a long time. Do not disappoint me! I enjoyed being poked fun as when you said OHHH NOOOOOO. And you know that I LOVE YOU yeah?! HAHA. Double meaning HAHA. I kid I kid, *coughs*

    Thank you for ur fake lashes on our first photoshoot day, and your breadtop spounge cake. =)



    7) Suzy the BB - You are very different from what I thought you were. Judging from appearance you looked like a very confident and serious person, professional-like I'd say, the kind that wouldnt take jokes easily.. After getting to know you better, I was ashamed to find how I judged you by your looks at the very first place. You are such a nice and wonderful person with a pure heart. I enjoyed our chat on charity show night very very much. Thanks for letting me to stay over that day and your mum was so lovely. When are we doing this again BB?



    8) Bridget - You are so hilarious and interesting!! You have a beautiful face and stop ruining it when you refuse to smile! You can turn a strict face into an angelic one with just one smile. SMILE BABE. I still remember talking to you on interview day, you looked like you disliked me -_- , and kudos to you for being able to tell that I'm from M'sia straight away.



    9) Hannah - Miss Healthy, you so deserved that! It's a pity that I did not get to know you better as we didn't have lots of time spent together.. Nonetheless I can never forget how well-spoken you are and also how you blocked me during our opening dance LoL.

    (Dont worry the angry face is just to make this entry looks more interesting, I'm not angry at all)


    10) Lian - I always think that you're really graceful and elegant. You're talented with your eighth grade piano and also ballet. I believe these are something in common between us, latin dance and piano, although I'm really bad in latin dance haha. We're gonna partay really soon, I'm sure I'll see you again because WE PARTY!
     

    11) Jae a.k.a. BFF - Beefy, the moment I saw you on interview day I told myself: I'm not gonna win this competition. You were damn hot!! With your toned body and beautiful face (note: we look alike, *cough* kiddingggg lol) I knew that you were going to do well, despite how some people were deceived with the bad photo taken of you. Thanks for being stupid because that made us laugh so much and became so much closer during location shoot.

    Yeah. Stupidity rocks.



    12) Jenny - I like how you liked my lame jokes and laughed at me. You're a very smart girl who does difficult subjects in Uni! I like your black hair, it looks so healthy. How random is this -_- I don't know what to write because thinking of you makes me feel so speechless. Bahaha. U know I lub u Maybe it's because we just finished talking on MSN, no more inspiration -_-




    To num 1-6,

    I miss our Cheong Sam routine so much. I think we did really well and it's definitely something that I'm really proud of. All the steps that we choreographed by ourselves, all the claps that we gained on the night. How awesome's that! I wish we could do this again.

     

    To num 7 - 12
    We pwned you


    HAHAHAHA

    You know I'm joking right? I AM. Please don't get offended, I know you girls are not sensitive! In fact your umbrellas and fans made everything looked so much more interesting. I think we did equally well :D



    Xtina and Lucy

    I enjoyed practising Ye Lai Xiang with ya'll, can we do it again just to annoy the other girls on the 15th? :P
     


    Xoxo

    See you all on the 15th of Aug! NO ONE BAILS OUT (Meng is excused)

  • 2 more days to Freedom

    I can smell it, so close yet so far. Isn't it annoying when almost everyone is done with exams and you still have one pathetic subject to go :(

    Will update this abandoned site more when my mind is clearer. So many things happened in the past 2 months, it's time to jot them down before I forget :)

    3 in the morning and I just started revising for my Business Process Analysis. What an ambiguous subject.. Don't even know what's there to study.



    My twitter page: www.twitter.com/MayyanWong

    Will probably twit more than I xanga.
