Updates!! I have just moved into my hostel for the second semester of my university life. I suspect that my room is slightly bigger than my previous room, not sure. Spent last night decorating my room with fairy lights balls that I bought from Chatuchak Market, Thailand. It adds such a homely touch to my room, and I went into slumber with these beautiful soothing yellow lights accompanying me.
I spent close to 10 hours studying in the Macs Common today. Tired, but not stressed out. Just reading my textbooks and preparing for lessons. Wing came to accompany me in the evening and I was reminded by how we used to study all the time last sem together. Even though we missed each other’s company for the past month, nothing much has really changed between us. She still folds the subway wrapper everytime before she starts devouring her sandwich, she still holds the door for me, she still sticks with me to the very last minute of my studying even though she’s really tired, and still so excited about clubbing. We decided to eat some ice cream before we went back to our hostel, and made plans for next monday’s overnight slumber/picnic/h2h session at Utown. Hehe, we even allocated duties and made a packing list. It feels strange parting at different blocks of our hostel, since I am now not staying in the same room opposite her, but I know that won’t change our friendship.
Sam, Charis and I studied in the day before they left for lessons etc, and we made Tuesday our weekly studying day!!!! hehe. I still laugh when I think about how Sam made this gross "Ahhhh Ahhhh" sound (story for another day) HAHAH. This fashion terrorist even wore purple elephant pants to school today (omg). I objected vehemently to her buying those in Bangkok, but she just wouldn’t listen. Tsk. Nvm, since I promised not to laugh at her if she really does wear it in front of me, I shan’t. THE PANTS LOOK GORGEOUS ON YOU SAM.
I just started a Spotify Account. Username : Han Sooyong Kelliewongxinhui BobbestJr. If you follow me, then I suppose you’re really free to type that long string of alphabets into your search engine. Most songs have a special meaning to me, and when I hear the song, I think of someone/something in particular. Like how when I hear Thinking Out Loud, I think of Sam and our Bangkok adventures. When I hear One Direction’s You Don’t Know You’re Beautiful, I think about my first relationship in Junior College and that guy. Or when I hear Taylor Swift’s Our Song, I think about this secondary school friend that I used to be really close to, but time and different lives forced us apart. And I wonder whether they think of me when they hear these songs too. I listen to the lyrics of the song really closely, and my habit of listening to a song on repeat endlessly really helps me to delve deeper into the meaning of each song. So even though I really like Sam Smith’s I Know I’m not the only one, I cannot bring myself to hear it all the time, because the betrayal portrayed in the song just makes me feel really sad and empty. Oh well, music has a special place in my heart.
I am preparing to shoot a vlog this weekend, so here’s a heads up for my avid fans that check back on my blog regularly hehe. It’s fashion related! I am not sure if I can finish editing and all by this weekend, but I’ll try. Or at most, just wait till the following weekend comes. You can find my Youtube account here : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8PdEjIFGL0Q and probably check out my Best Friend Tag video I did with Sam 2 weeks ago.
Also!! I am really proud of myself, I have been making quite healthy eating options recently! I just want to be more mindful of what I eat this year and treat my body right yep. I recently fell in love with swimming too, so I have been swimming quite often! Is this the start of my #fitgirl95 journey?! Hahah, or maybe it’s just a temporary addiction.
PS. Is it strange how this supposedly life changing day turns out to be so peaceful for me?
I hope you all have a really nice week ahead. This helped me start each new day on a better note, so I am just going to share it here with y’all. Every morning, I say a thank you prayer to God. Thank God that even if you had a bad day yesterday, He granted you the chance to start today afresh. Everyday, people die in their sleep and you’re not one of them. If you focus on that, you’ll start to have a grateful heart for even the slightest event that happens today. If you’re not religious, then just say it aloud to yourself. :)
Love,
Xin Hui
