December

It's already December. Wow thats fast. 

The last time I blogged was in July. Now looking back, so much has happened and I can't really name everything so let's just move off from here. In just 3 days I would be done with my first term of my second semester!!! (YAY)  This term literally flew by and yet another set of weeks to rest awaits me (so near I could just touch it slightly). 

On another note, CHRISTMAS IS COMING!!!! Sense my excitement. My outmost favourite time of the year has once again arrived. Everything about it just puts me in a good mood. From the Christmas songs, to going out shopping for Christmas presents and looking at your friends & family's facial expression when they open the gift that you put in so much thought and effort into is just.. priceless. There are just a million and one reasons why I love this season oh so much but we shall not go into it too much before I start getting all excited and start hyperventilating. 

For now, I actually should be studying but I'm sat here typing this post. Gonna have a paper tomorrow and on Thursday. B. Stats and Javascript respectively. Javascript coding really is the bane of my existence and I have no idea how I'm going to do it on Thursday. Guess I'll just have to wing it. Just can't wait till Thursday's paper is over and I can fully enjoy myself after the shitload of work and projects that I've just gone through. 

If anyone else is reading this post when you are actually supposed to be studying,  aye mate all the best for your papers! We shall make it through. 

T minus 3 days till freedom. 

I am gonna start blogging much more soon!! So stay tuned for that. I'm just going to leave y'all here.

 Till next time! 

Much love,
Rach xoxo

Not the best week


Hey there, judging from the title of the post, i think you can sort of guess how this post is gonna go. Haven't been feeling the best this week due to many reasons:

1.  The amount of assignments that is piled is insane. Doesn't help that the due dates for these assignments are packed so close together we can't exactly just focus on one particular assignment but manage between the 6 different modules and assignments at the same time. Thinking about it makes me nauseous.

2.  My laptop decided now's the best time to 'die' on me. Okay so, around 2 days ago i was just using my laptop as per normal, when i decided to shut down and close my laptop, i heard a loud crack as i was closing it. Guess what, near the hinge of my laptop, there's a huge gaping hole (there were even small broken plastic pieces scattered on my table). I swear i did nothing to my computer at all. And it was perfectly fine before that. Like i don't get what and how that happened. It wasn't as if i dropped it or slammed it shut. And i just flipping broke down. It was like around 11:30pm at night and i was so ready to go to bed but no. My laptop just had to do this to me in the midst of my assignments, i just stared at my computer in disbelief and ran to my brother for help even though there was nothing he could do about it anyways. I love my life :') It is still working normally now but whenever i open and close my laptop it just makes this horrible cracking noise like it might just fall apart any time. I should probably send it for service. Then again, it will mean i wouldn't have my laptop for around a week and i've submissions next Monday and Friday. Once again loving my life :')

3.  Have absolutely no motivation whatsoever to do my assignments. And considering the deadlines coming up, i better start doing something about it and not continue being a gigantic sloth that i am.

4.  Sleep deprived. I haven't really been sleeping well these few days. I'm literally a zombie now who can't wait to sleep in tomorrow.

5.  I keep thinking about the amount of things i have to do and the amount of time that i have to complete them and i just freak out and fall into an emotional pit. Getting angry/sad/frustrated at anything and everything. I think i might just be going insane.

6.  And because of the above, i have been lashing out at the people who are the closest to me and who care about me. (the week i feel like a horrible human being) I'm sorry.

Okay i'm gonna just leave it at 6 points before i fall into full on depression. I hope you guys had a better week than i did! Enjoy the weekends!!
* One plus point that made my week slightly less miserable, i met Jazreel today :') *

Till next time!

Much love,
Rach xoxo

Those unsaid



Sometimes when you have those 1am reflections about life, you start to realize that not everyone around you are there for you genuinely. There will be people who just hang around you who can't wait for the moment you just crash and burn. Let those who persistently tries to bring you down go. They don't need any sort of goodbye party, learn to surround yourself with the people who bring out the best in you.

Actually,  i don't think i'm a good person. In fact, some days i feel that i'm a horrible human being that doesn't deserve to walk the surface of the earth. On those days, i don't feel i deserve all the things that i have in my life. Other days, i feel rather good about myself, those are the days i feel i deserve a little treat, and i presume that those are the days are the effect of spending time with some incredible people (the people i hold dear to my heart).

Some people come in as a blessing, others just as passing wind (along with lessons learnt). and i'm perfectly contented with the handful of blessings i currently have in my possession. So, just. let. the. rest. go.


Till next time!

Much love,
Rach xoxo

Something different

Hello there my trusty internet buddies!

So about a week ago, when i was still on my term break,  Kah Ying and i decided to go to a museum one day (main reason: she wanted to take pictures at the photo booth). We visited the Singapore Art Museum (SAM). It was something different. Somehow it never really occurred to me to visit a museum besides being brought there on a school trip or for other events. 


Honestly, it was really therapeutic looking at all the different exhibitions, actually reading the little label at the sides, putting yourself into the mind of the artists, understand what the exhibit is really about and what was going through their minds while they were bringing that piece of art to life. 

The different exhibitions were really very captivating and made me wonder why didn't i do this sooner. Some were extraordinary, others beyond beautiful. All attached with a wonderfully written and portrayed back story. 


All in all, it was a really lovely day at the museum. This wouldn't be my last museum trip for sure. Those of you who don't mind just taking a day out to do something a little different, try going to a museum! Might or might not be your cup of tea but it'll be a great experience nonetheless!!



Till next time!

Much love, 
Rach xoxo

Checkin' In

 Hey there! 

So... How come you've been gone for so long Rachel?

It has been quite a while since I've last written a blog post. February.. and now its already June (Still amazed at how fast time flies). How have all of you been? Its actually been so long I have actually forgotten how to use this platform (Geez).

Well, a lot has changed the past few months with me being in my second year of poly to being 18 and legal and all that hooha. Not sure where to start or what this post is going to be about just yet so bear with all the rambling. Also not sure how many of you would still read my blog but thank you to those who've been checking in here and there for the past few months! Sending lots of love xx.

Update time, so currently i'm having my term break and actually calling it a 'holiday' would be a severe overstatement. It basically feels like home-based learning MONTH (okay maybe just 3 weeks but you get me). I've actually got a jammed pack schedule with all sorts of things going on. Not to mention a mountain load of assignments just waiting for me to get through, oh the horror.

I've not been exactly the most hardworking person during this time and have actually been slacking my break away. But, we all need a break right?.. Then I realize I'm left with only 1 week of break left... (nicely done Rachel). Seems like I need to use all the power vested in me to start on my lovely pile of work just sitting in a tiny corner buried in the back of my head.

I know, its been a really long time and I miss this space and would like to pick up my blogging pace again so lets start small, I won't promise a ton more blog posts, but i'll stop giving in to my lazy self and get back on track. So, a huge thank you to you, yes you, for reading this post and visiting my blog. xx

Till next time!
Much love,

Rach xoxo

Drained.


Probably the most emotional and mentally draining weeks of my life. Also, worst semester so far.(yes, i do know its only my second semester but yes, it's bad) Totally had enough of projects and assignments this semester. Can't wait to get it over and done with NOW. There's a submission tomorrow, another one next Wednesday and a final submission  on 15th February. After that, my exams. Holy crap. This is NEVER ENDING. Been so tired lately and its like i can feel my body deteriorating slowly, just dying and fading into oblivion. These few weeks has just been assignment after assignment after assignment, submission after submission after submission. I legit need a break. THANK GOD FOR THE CHINESE NEW YEAR HOLIDAYS. 

BUT, i still have work to do over that few days despite having to go visiting, bless my soul :")  
Not to mention, these few assignments have been the worst, the most content heavy, the most draining and the most time consuming. Can't wait for this semester to end. Just pray i finish this semester alive. 

Also, on a side note, i can't believe i'm turning 18 this year :')  Outside all the school jibber jabbish, feeling immensely blessed because of the people around me :")  

Shall continue working hard and never be complacent. 

"Effort never betrays." 
Thanks for reading my word vomit. 

Till next time
Much love, 
Rach xoxo

It's been a while

Hey there guys!! I'm so sorry. I totally neglected my blog as i'm sure you guys know.. HAHA. "At least i'll be blogging more often again!" Yeah right Rachel. Sorry i basically disappeared the entire holidays until now. I'm terribly sorry... :(

Anyways, HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!! Okay. Yes i'm late, well aware of that. But HOLY. It's already 2016. My puny brain has yet grasp that fact even though January is already coming to an end. This semester has been quite horrible i must say. Well at least in comparison with my previous semester. Everything this semester has been a haze. Can't believe i survived term 1 and i'm practically ending term 2 or year 1 soon. LIKE WHAT?! Where did all that time go? Not to mention, i'm totally not prepared for my exams which are in about... 4 weeks? HAHAHAHAH :") Currently, i'm also piled with assignments and so many submissions :( can't wait till its all over.

I might probably blog about my Japan trip one day... and also my December in squares post soon. HAHA no promises when though! But i'll get it up one day!(: Thank you to those of you who still constantly pop in onto my blog to see if there's anything new and thank you for reading too! Love every single one of you!

Till next time!
Much love,
Rach xoxo
