Carousell  Hello all! I've just started carousell and soooooo do support me alright! Will be posting up a lot of other stuff over the next few days. Friday, May 23, 2014
Smile  Have a happy week ahead! Pain  We all know that sometimes when we get hurt, we deserve it. Friday, May 16, 2014
Caught up in words Good afternoon everyone. I've been a little busy, mainly occupying a lot of my free time and sleep time to read. I like reading because it keeps my mind occupied, it goes on for a long time (unlike movies that last about 2 hours) and words describe many things that images can't. So anyway I've finished the divergent trilogy. I shall eat my words on saying that divergent sucks and I hated the book. I wouldn't say I love it. Summarized story line of divergent trilogy. 5 factions work together to form a society, with each of them having a certain characteristic to uphold certain jobs. However there are people who have a mixture of characteristics (divergents) and end up not having 1(the best choice for them) faction. Many of the divergents end up getting killed or dropping out of the factions. 1 faction (erudite) began to want to take over the entire society and had another faction (dauntless, trained as security and police force) under control, by injecting mind control serums, to kill the current governing faction(abnegation). Divergents, however, were immune to this serum and led to the main characters(tris and Tobias), being divergents, to stop the slaughtering of abnegation. Many lives were lost in this hostile takeover. tris and a few others managed to stop it but this action made them fugitives. Soon after tris and her friends found out that the erudites wanted to become the governing faction because of a video sent from the 'outside' ( outside of the city). allies between other factions stopped erudites taking over and the factionless became the governing faction. Another group of rebels rose up against the factionless (allegiant). A few members of allegiant were chosen to be sent out if the city to investigate the video from the 'outside' (Tris and Tobias included) and they found out that their city and many others are experiments of genetics deficiencies and the divergents are people who have 'healed genetics'. The bureau that controls the experiments soon wanted To wipe off the memories of people in tris's city to reset the experiment. With that, another group of rebels were formed to stop this from happening. They were successful but tris died in the process but the world became a better place. I started reading divergent because I watched the movie and I liked it. A few of my friends were reading it and those who read it raved about how good it was. To me, The first book was kind of a disappointment. It didn't describe many things I was hoping to read in which I saw from the movie. Honestly, divergent kind of bore me. I continued reading insurgent(second book) as my friend told me that divergent barely scratched the surface of the whole storyline. Insurgent was better, I finished the book in a day and went on with allegiant. Both books are better than divergent itself. (Probably because the movie isn't out so there weren't any expectations) When I think back at the entire experience of the trilogy, I would say the storyline is good. There is a lot of action packed into the books but overall, did it bore me? Unfortunately, yes. When I say bore. I don't mean like I was BORED while reading. It just doesn't surprise me or gave me a sense of unexpectance. I mean while you do not predict the book on what is going to happen next, you don't get surprised on what the story brings you to. It's always about fighting, action, fighting about this cause, standing up against the leaders, planning for a take down, fails, fight and of course, fight again. A little intimacy in between here and there too. I did however like that fact that (spoiler alert) tris died. Don't get me wrong that I liked her dying. But in terms of content because it's surprising, in most books, the main characters never die. This would probably make a good movie though because firstly, it's very much like the hunger games. I haven't read the book but I guess the movie portrayed tris and katniss rather similarly and people like that. there is a lot of action and I guess many movie goers like that. On top of that, who doesn't like a strong young girl who would stand up for what she believes it, right? I do believe that if a third movie comes out and tris dies in the screens, many people would weep for her, including me. I do see why there are many fans of the book but I guess it's just not really 'my kind of book'. Personally I LOVE the trilogy of 'the girl with the dragon tattoo', books that pretty much leave you mind blown by the unexpected links and shows you the whole story of the book only at the END of the story. (You're probably pretty much lost while at the front) Any such books to recommend? Please do take note that the entire thoughts on the book are solely based on my personal opinions and I hope I won't be stepping on toes of fans. We all have different preferences. That pretty much sums this post up so.. Bye! Thursday, May 8, 2014
A little supper tip You know there are days when you wanna have supper and yet too lazy to change out or step out of the comfort of your abode. Or days that you just wanna be home, slurping on some instant noodles. WELL here's a tip and it's really good. We all know the Korean instant ramen 'shin' right? If you don't just google shin ramen. It's so good. The soup is good the noodles is good. I'm not sure if there's anything not good about it. Back in the days of my poly years (happy sigh) we go drinking or clubbing or just staying out late and when we get home, we would get on MSN, or whatsapp and start chatting. And when someone starts with the shin eating, everyone else would mot be able to resist it. So do whatever you wanna do with your noodles, throw your vegetables, egg, cheese tofu, sausages, fishball or fish cakes whatever. Do your normal cooking. The secret only comes in AFTER. And that is pouring it in a bowl, lay some cheese on top of it, cover the bowl with a plate and wait a few minutes for it to melt. If you're lazy like me, and opt the microwave method to cook your ramen, just pause at the last 30 seconds to put your cheese. Results are almost the same.  Please don't judge it's looks cause it's so so SO good. Try it!

Little brother gone  So my little brother is in Vietnam now doing his internship. Blah I hope he lives well there. He's super picky when it comes to food and naturally skinny. He spent the last year 'bulking'(stuffing himself and eating everything he can) and taking weight gainer to put on 10kg, and this is how he looks like after 10kg. I really hope he wouldn't end up losing the 10 kg in 4 months. Haha Well we sing a lot together at home and now I have no singing buddy!! 4 months isn't THAT long... Right?

Back on track Hello all. I've been studying for my first round of end term examinations and well... My life was basically in a cycle for about 3 weeks. Sleep from morning till noon, late lunch, have some me time(mainly playing with my dogs or tv), bathe and from midnight till probably 4, I'm studying So with that being the most parts of the past 3 weeks, now that it's over, I'm not sure how do I function anymore.  (This is me studying with my hair burned up on a Saturday afternoon. ) Before that I was somehow gymming rather regularly, almost 3-4 times a week and now.. Holy shit I can't bring myself to the gym AT ALL. It's horrible. I've gained a good 2.5kg for the past 3 weeks from the lack of physical activities and obviously snacking. I thought that was bad but no, I had another classmate that put on 5! It's really true that once you hit adulthood, your metabolism dives down. Sigh. To make matters worse, now that finally I get to snatch my social life back from the 'evil claws' of education, everybody is asking me out. When that happens, wouldn't it be eating? I think that it's highly possible that right now my calorie intake per day would be up to 5k. So with that, I shall talk about my dinner today. I met Alpin for dinner after my tuition And there  Katong's famous chicken rice (so good), bkt soup and some soup with ingredients from the yongtaufoo stall.  Andddddd blackball! I really do have a strong conflict with myself and food. It's like.... I hate myself and I wanna eat. *food appears* OMG stuffed myself with food and cycle starts again. Don't we all? Cycling in Singapore Beautiful day, beautiful Singapore, 2 weeks ago, Harris and I decided to go for an outdoor date. I've been forcing him to have 'healthier' dates so we try different activities. So far there's been numeral kite flying attempts(not my fav), night walks, walks and cycling! Was a little nervous at first because the first time I actually learnt (in my memory) to cycle was in Bali last year and most of the time we were going downhill without many people. Cycling in Singapore on a weekend is not a joking matter as we all know, Singapore is FILLED with people.

 Selfie before cycling! Was glad that my body remembers how to cycle. Looks like it's true that they say 'once you learn now to cycle, you won't forget it!' The weather was.. Predictably, HOT AND HUMID but at least it wasn't raining. Decided to cycle at east coast park. Cliche, I know but hey! We don't have many choices in Singapore! And instead of using the route and cycle around east coast, for my sake, we decided to cycle to the barrage. The route used has significantly lesser people.     And also with a much more beautiful view. The sea view of east coast isn't impressive anyway. Total cycle time-2 hours. Which was useless cause we ended up having a heavy, unhealthy dinner. Well, at least we tried! (: Wednesday, May 7, 2014
