AWESOME Saturday!
WOW! Yesterday was exciting!!! Bought myself a road bike, like FINALLY! And went to catch the FIRST EVER Singapore Youth Olympic Games Opening Ceremony!! The day started off with a message from coach informing me of the bike sale happening at Commonwealth.. Then after breakfast and much persuasion of asking my mum and dad to give me a ride, we set off!! Kinda got lost as we did not know the exact location, but with the trusty Singapore road directions book, we found our way!!!
So much testing and discussion with coach has resulted in me buying a Polygon 300!!! Coach was really awesome to make her way down, and help me to asses if things were right, what else i needed, help me with a mutual swap of handle bar and more!! So i am only able to collect my bike next Saturday, where i can start to cycle and train for Desaru Sprint Race!! WHOAH!!
Then in the evening, my parents and I went to the Marina Bay Floating Platform to catch the Youth Olympic Games Opening Ceremony.. I have to say, it is really awesome.. The security clearance, the volunteers, the ushers, the performance, practically it is all who was involved in this opening ceremony did an awesome job... KUDOS to ALL of you!!! On the other hand, i managed to see the SUPER ugly side of Singaporeans..
I have always been proud to call myself a Singaporean.. But with these ugly side of us, it puts me to shame sometimes.. We were all given a goodie bag (just like NDP), so there was this family, i think as large as 10 of them, decided to EACH put their goodie bags on the seats in front of them (so 20 seats taken up by this big fat as family).. Wondering why they did that? Well, as typical Singaporeans, they decided to use the goodie bags to 'chop' seats for their other friends or families i do not know.. 'Chop' means to reserve in Singapore terms.. I was really disgusted at the act of these Singaporeans, but as a Singaporean, i KNOW that is the culture and norm here, so i just took a photo and walked away... But behind me were a family of westerners, 4 of them frantically looking for a seat to enjoy the opening ceremony, but was turned down as these KIASU SINGAPOREANS decided to happily use the bags to RESERVE the seats..
The opening ceremony was AWESOME!! The performances reflected the journey Singapore has been through since the past, moving on to the future, bring a multi-racial country where we willingly accept the cultures of the other races and religions.. It was truly creative and meaningful, however there is just one single bit that i did not like, and that was out national anthem..
I feel that we did not need to change the tune of our national anthem.. Our 'Majulah Singapura' has a very vibrant and strong tune to it, reflecting the meaning of the anthem, Onward Singapore... Yesterday, it sounded like we were trying to change the anthem to suit a high class 'feel' to it.. I feel that there was no need to compromise our national anthem, after all, this is OUR spirit, OUR pride, OUR song... It is something that represents us, which should not be changed... But oh wells, this is just my personal opinion.. So yeah..
OH! Then the amount of TRASH that was lying on the ground was GROSS!!! I mean, is it so FREAKING hard to clear your own trash?! I just don't get it! How would you like to have your house being filled with trash this way? Like a landfill! PISSED!
Anyway, overall i think Ivan Heng has done a SPECTACULAR job!! Of course the credit is not only his, but also to all the volunteers, workers, Olympic Committee and participants! I am satisfied with yesterday's performance, and i am looking forward to the closing ceremony!!! Well done Singapore, now we need to continue to cheer on the many young athletes that are in Singapore.. In the name of good sportsmanship, it is not the winning, it is the experience that counts.. Although victory is sweet! =)

Final Countdown!!!
*Final Countdown Theme song play in my head*
I am REALLY down to the FINAL week here in Aussie land!! One last week to enjoy the cold freezing weather and then it is time for me to sweat it all out back on the sunny island!! Really looking forward to the things i am going to do back home, one being going for a RUN!! I cannot believe that it took me 2 years to slim down, but 4 months to balloon back to my Shanghai weight.. AMAZING!! Hahaz!! But i just feel so unhealthy as i have not been exercising for AGES!
This week has been busy with driving to the airport, cleaning, packing, airport and more cleaning.. Love the h2h with Yu Jin, i am so going to miss her.. Like SERIOUSLY am.. On Friday, i felt like a hotel housekeeper waiting for my guests to check in, so need to make the beds, clean the whole house and more.. Phew, TIRING man, but super fulfilling.. Hahaz.. But sadly after cleaning the house, it takes only 5 minutes to dirty it again.. Depressed.. Hahaz!! But i super don't care already, cause i am leaving!!! But then again, i cannot stand living in a dirty house, so i think i will clean again.. Hahaz!
The entire clan has arrived!! My parents and bro is in town!!! Stayed at the Holiday In Brisbane yesterday and toured the city.. Walked so much that my brother and dad is in pain now.. Hahaz!! Oops, i am too hardcore a tour guide.. Bad bad planning.. Then today went to Riverlink, bought heaps of stuff and love the way they enjoyed grocery shopping.. Now i know where i get that habit of mine from.. ALL of the family.. Hahaz! After that i came back, washed the car with Yu Jin and had an awesome dinner prepared by my mother and brother..
Then it was MasterChef time with Yu Jin!! So glad we share the love for food! Hahaz.. This week is going to be a hectic week with going to GC on Wed and Thur, then Graduation on Fri and back to Singapore on Saturday!!! But whatever the plan is, i am just glad that my family is here, to share this experience with me..
I am very tired from travelling, walking and basically not having enough sleep.. But with family and Yu Jin here, i know i am given the strength to just push on!! Want to sleep can go back Singapore sleep!! Hahaz!! Okie lah, time for me to go spend family time..
Till then, the next time i blog on a Sunday will be when i am SAFELY BACK IN SINGAPORE!! Hahaz.. Take care people and will see ya all SOON!! =)

Starting to feel the miss...
In two weeks time, i will be back in Singapore.. I am really looking forward to it as can be seen as how much i support the sunny island of ours.. But then again, i start to feel the miss of this place..
Maybe because i just started to enjoy the life here.. Having no stress from exams and school.. The thought of going back to Singapore to find a job is so depressing.. Not that i do not want to work, but more of, i do not know what i want to work and where.. Kinda feel loss right now, not knowing the goal that i am heading towards.. And in life, if you have no goal, the feeling really sucks...
This week have to settle the last minute paperwork stuff before i welcome the arrival of my family and then its time to say goodbye to this place.. Was packing my room today and i am stressing over how am i going to bring back a printer, 2 compact grills, ALL my clothes, HEAPS of food, baking items, ALL my notes and more!! STRESS AH!!! Not sure if the combined effort of 80KG will be enough.. HAHAHZ!!!
I just watched New Moon.. Yes, i know i very loser and lag, but that time had no partner to watch with so now i managed to borrow the DVD from a friend at work.. You know what, i start to loathe Bella, cause she is such a player!! SHEESH! Like make a decision already! Saying I Love You to 2 guys at the same time with none of them being your dad of brother is just so WRONG! Hahaz.. Oh wells, it is a movie, so yeah..
Alright.. This week has been hectic with work and slacking.. Hahaz.. So tomorrow i am going to reward myself by sleeping in!! However, got to go to the city to settle come superannuation thing tomorrow.. Like sian! Need to travel so freaking far! ARGH! Maybe i should call them before i go down.. Hehe.. Lazy ah... Till then, i will see my family and friends REAL soon!

Bored...
Being a human, when you are bored, you start to think of stuffs.. So since i am so bored, i decided to blog.. Let me see, today's topic shall be on love then, since i have been watching too much love shows and hearing love matters from friends.. Machiam some love consultant, but actually not know.. Hahaz!
Well, was talking to my manager yesterday, and she said something that i agree so totally.. That is between two people, no matter what happens, you have to be truthful and honest to one another.. She told me that before she stepped into marriage, both parties have to be honest with themselves, that they are ready, that they want to create a future together, that they want to be with one another, and be able to accept all the good and bad in each other, not to attempt to change one another.. I think what she says makes a heap loads of sense.. I mean, if one has a little doubt in them, then were will the relationship lead to? If you are not being honest, that this is what you want, that this is what you are willing to give up, that this is what you are willing to accept, then i am sure the marriage/relationship will not last because at some point of time, things will just keep building up till it ends up negatively in a big explosion...
I have been hearing much love matters from people around me recently.. Maybe because is is one of the easiest topic to engage in cause well, everyone will have been through it right? From the simple love from a family, to a friend to an opposite sex.. We all have different expectations and ways of expressing, it takes time to fully understand and accept how one expresses their love and concerns.. Some might be simple to say 'I Love You', some may be tough as they keep breathing down you neck.. But at the end of they day, it is because they are concerned for us, loving us, that is why they will treat us in such ways..
Among my friends, many of them are attached, some even married.. I guess this is the time when people start to panic about what if I am still single? What if I cannot get married? I have even got people asking me whether I have a boyfriend and when i want to find one.. Well, all i can say from my perspective is, such matters cannot be rushed.. As matters of the heart takes time, and i am still learning despite being 22 years of age... Heard this song, which makes heaps of sense: "Love is not love, till you learn how to give it away"... I am sick and tired of one-sided wild goose chase, that i am not afraid to say that i was rather afraid of stepping into another relationship and face the same problem again.. So, now i am learning how to open up and accept love again.. After all, i STILL want to get married and have kids.. Hahaz!
I believe really strongly that i will be able to find the love of my life.. One who will not care if i burp really loud, have a voice of a loud speaker, am fat, loves to eat and being so stubborn.. One that will give me the strong sense of security.. Even if it takes more time, it is fine.. After all, i rather marry right and be happy than jump into a marriage that might end up in a nasty way.. I all along thought that now, i should just reserve for the right person to come.. But my brother told me that is not right.. Cause this way, i will be afraid to accept relationships... Which i think it is really true.. But then again, this does not mean that we can jump into anyone that pops up lah.. Hahaz... Know of some friends who do that.. Though i am in no position to comment, i just feel that why jump into one before knowing a person better?
To my friends out there not going through a good period right now.. Press on.. If the other party decides to end it, well, then we just got to accept right? After all, being forced to stay in a relationship will not be good too.. And trust me, the feeling sucks for both parties.. So get out, have fun and just live life again..
I am just glad that now, Sheryl has finally found her inner self again.. The all along cheerful, loud and crazy girl since she was born.. In fact, it is in this semester that I actually realised many life lessons.. One being you can never satisfy everyone, and even if some people are not happy or comfortable with the way you speak and act, heck about them.. I am who i am, me speaking this way, acting this way, is my inner self, my copyright, my label.. If i need to change, i will, like my stubborn character.. Well, though i KNOW it is impossible to change totally, but a simple improvement will mean heaps.. Only those who appreciate the way you are will just accept this 'spare parts' of the package.. So yeah..
Took me 5 years to find this inner me again.. Maybe too much has happened within these 5 years.. After all, during this period i have been let down in both friendships and relationships, but have also enjoyed the best moments in both friendships and relationships too.. From being controlled to gaining freedom, from having to lead but have failed, from knowing who my true friends are, from being disappointed to finding encouragement, from being a really lousy student to being a smart one for now.. Hahaz.. These 5 years seem to have passed in a flash..
I just want to thank everyone cause you all have played a part.. Those who made me pissed, upset or even heart broken, i do not blame you peeps, cause if not for you peeps, i don't think i can be who i am today.. Learning to stand on my feet and be stronger.. So for that, i thank you all for knocking me hard with the harsh realities in life.. I TRULY do appreciate...
Those who have always been there for me.. Nothing can ever express the gratitude that i have.. Being there for me when i am down, giving me a boost when i need encouragement, always showering me with the love and concerns... I am able to stay this positive and cheerful because of you peeps.. So i thank you all..
Okie, this is a damn long entry.. Hahaz! But these few days, having to do nothing after the exams, it has given me heaps of time to think about my life.. About the past and what i want to do from now on.. Though i have only been thinking about the past, it is time i look into the future.. Decide what i want to do, where i want to go and ultimately, what i want to achieve in this life of mine.. To friends going through a tough time now, remember, although sometimes the ending point is the same, it is the process that matters.. As long as you put in the best effort, positive results will reap..

Unofficial end of my UQ journey..
One and a half year has passed since i came to study at UQ.. This journey has been filled with much pain, but also with many awesome experiences.. From being stressed out like mad with projects, to fun dinner sessions at Campus View, to winning the Holiday Inn Competition alone, to making new friends, to getting stressed again and many many many more.. Bottom line, I HAVE SURVIVED THIS JOURNEY!!
This semester has been very fulfilling.. I have been forced to be out of Campus View, to make new friends and am glad that i did.. I got this opportunity to get closer to Yu Jin, Tian Chaung and all the wonderful C12 babes.. It has just been wonderful this year.. I have really enjoyed myself so much, that i must say, this is the best semester.. Maybe because only NOW then i realised that we NEED to enjoy too.. Last 2 semesters, i have been so caught up with work and cooped up at home.. This semester, it has been packed with work, school, dinners, shopping and many joy rides.. I always believe in the concept of "win some, lose some".. So this semester i have had HEAPS of fun, but then, i might have neglected a little on school work and the self discipline to exercise.. But ironically, this does not work with weights.. Hahaz! So i gained weight even though i gain new friends and awesome experiences..
After i finished my LAST paper on Friday, i has this nice feeling in me.. Yet i felt quite sad that i am not going to enjoy the peace in Ipswich campus anymore.. The awesome library, nice atmosphere and wonderful friends.. Humans are just like that, not cherishing the moments until we know or have lost it.. Oh wells, just got to accept and move on right..
Last few days has been just PACKED with HEAPS of fun!! From making chicken curry, chocolate molten cake and biscotti, to making spaghetti and cheesecake, to making sushi, chawanmushi and miso soup, it has been a MASTERCHEF experience! HAHAZ! Now everyone going back le, but luckily still got Yu Jin to pei me.. =)
Results are coming back on 7th July 0000hrs.. I REALLY hope i will excel as i have worked really hard this semester.. Although MAYBE not as high as last two semesters.. Hahaz.. Hoping to see four 7s on the screen..
I have so much to say, words of thanks, words of joy, words of sadness and many more.. But i am really tired from too much working and fun that i feel like sleeping already.. Hahaz! Cannot wait! I am going home in 29 days! Hahaz! I should really start to look for jobs le.. Oh my goodness, i am going to be a working adult officially!! ARGH!! Kinda still want to be a student now! But then, i am quite sick of studying too for now.. Hahaz!!! Maybe should do honors? HEHE!
Okie, i am going to pack some stuffs for a stayover and then head off to bed.. Sleepy le.. The life with no exams, assignments, exams or stress is just so sweet.. TOO SWEET!! =)
This semester has been very fulfilling.. I have been forced to be out of Campus View, to make new friends and am glad that i did.. I got this opportunity to get closer to Yu Jin, Tian Chaung and all the wonderful C12 babes.. It has just been wonderful this year.. I have really enjoyed myself so much, that i must say, this is the best semester.. Maybe because only NOW then i realised that we NEED to enjoy too.. Last 2 semesters, i have been so caught up with work and cooped up at home.. This semester, it has been packed with work, school, dinners, shopping and many joy rides.. I always believe in the concept of "win some, lose some".. So this semester i have had HEAPS of fun, but then, i might have neglected a little on school work and the self discipline to exercise.. But ironically, this does not work with weights.. Hahaz! So i gained weight even though i gain new friends and awesome experiences..
After i finished my LAST paper on Friday, i has this nice feeling in me.. Yet i felt quite sad that i am not going to enjoy the peace in Ipswich campus anymore.. The awesome library, nice atmosphere and wonderful friends.. Humans are just like that, not cherishing the moments until we know or have lost it.. Oh wells, just got to accept and move on right..

Exam begins...
Alright,after 13 weeks of school and a week of revision, this is what it all boils down to.. EXAMS!!
Seriously, i have been slacking like a slacker for this week.. Instead of studying, i am like watching TV, sleeping, working and just slacking.. Now i am so guilty and worried that i might not have enough time to study.. This one is a classic itchy backside, loads of time to study, now then want to hug the Buddha's leg at the very last minute..
Just hope that within the next two days i am able to retain all the information that i will attempt to squeeze into my tiny brain..
This is a really short update and i am going to sleep now.. Need to wake up early to study again, with a fresh mind to practice on Financial Management...
Wish me luck people, i really want to do well and if possible, get 4 High Distinctions this semester.. Well, it is my last, so why not right! Cheers and take care! SHERYL! BUCK UP!!! LAST 2 WEEKS!!

Hell week phase 2..
Well, i am left with only 2 more weeks of school and it is the end of my UQ lessons journey... Seriously, i am not feeling the sadness yet, but maybe the last week i will.. Hahaz.. I have been sleeping for only 5 to 7 hours for the past few nights, trying to work on my regular school work, my project work and also my work at the cafe.. I am really very drained, and very tired, but then again, it is only 1 more week of hell before i am done with all these projects..
There has been much procrastination from naoless project mates.. But then again, it is these kinda people that make me wanna work harder, to ensure that it does not affect my grades and also to learn the most out of the experience of working with such useless people.. At least i know that i have given my best shot.. And i guess that is what matters most right?
Oh my goodness, i am SO FREAKING EXCITED that my mum is coming in like 6 days!! Saturday will be THE DAY that i can hug her again! Yipee!! Then after that my aunt is coming! Like so exciting can! Muahahz!!
But for this week, i have got to finish up a event operations report as the submission is this Friday.. Then i also have to finish up my hotel operations essay and powerpoint presentation as it is due next Monday.. But the project mates i have are so freaking last minute, it is pissing me off until i decided to just heck care for now.. Wait till they feel kanchiong already then they sure will come and find me..
Oh! I decided to NOT do any school work today as i was really sick and tired of doing them... Of course the responsible me have finished my own parts, so can afford to take a break today.. So i decided to mop the floor of the house and clean the bathroom until it is SO WHITE now! Super got the sense of achievement! Hahaz! But then ah, if my housemates do not keep it clean, it will be dirty again in like a week! So yeah.. I think the toilet is even cleaner than the kitchen.. HAHAZ!
Had Hokkien Noodles for dinner.. Prepared by Huai An, which is actually quite nice, but a little dry i think.. Hahaz.. Then i super random, decided to bake, so i JUST finished baking a batch of Rocky Crunch Cakes which is just cornflake and raisin cookies.. HAHAZ! I asked my housemate Lucy to help me cause it is always really interesting to see the fascination on her face..
Finally got to do something i love and have fun... I need more 'my time' and less 'stress time'.. Hahaz!
Okie, got school tomorrow and then got to chiong project in the night.. Better rest early before i start snacking and stuff again.. Wha lau, gain 5 kg liao, not funny loh.. Hahaz.. But then again, i this semester really don't care about it.. Just want to get done, go back Singapore so that i can START running! OH! I signed up for Standard Chartered Marathon le!! Yipee!! Going to do 21km!! So i better train to keep fit and clock my personal best then! Not as if i very fast though, but that is the best part of marathons.. You do not compete with others, but just yourself.. =)
So meanwhile, i will hang on and survive.. PRESS ON!!

10 weeks down..
10 weeks done, 3 more to go! Wow, i have so many assignments coming up but nothing is even halfway done yet! I shall be positive in this entry.. Everything will fall into place and be superb! Even though i have a SUPER USELESS project mate who has more patterns than a leopard's spots..
This week, the piggy me finished 2 packs of Doritos Nachos in Two Days! WOW! Just had this craving and next thing, the whole pack gone.. HAHAZ! Wha lau, 55 KG liao still eat like machiam 30 KG nia.. HAhaz! Heck lah, whack first, later then worry..
I am loving financial management more than my hospitality subjects.. Cause at the end of the day, it boils down to your own effort.. You reap what you sow.. Study hard, do your tutorials diligently and it will be fine!
I am just updating my life this week.. Got to get back to project le.. Anyway winter IS here.. Autumn was non-existent and Winter just barged in.. So yeah.. It is FREAKING cold in the mornings and nights that the only way for me to stay warm, is to eat stuffs and drink like massive doses of hot chocolate, hot milo, hot tea, hot coffee and hot cereal drink.. Then drink le feel hot for like 10 minutes, then cold again.. Then need to pee.. Oh my, this is a VICIOUS cycle..
Back to work.. Even if you cannot, you KNOW you have to.. So all the way Sheryl..

Hahaz.. This Tuesday i have got a 50% service report due.. This Saturday i got to send 2 of my group projects.. And to be frank, i have not started the group assignments yet.. At least i got the Tuesday's one 95% done? So i am praying really hard that my brain will function well for this week for me to produce 2 awesome assignments for the group..
I am blogging just to update on a weekly basis.. OH! Exam timetable is out! My papers are so W-I-D-E-L-Y spread apart lah! 16th, 17th then 25th! Oh my.. But i should be glad at least they do not clash and i have time to study.. Also not as if it makes a difference since i have to stay here till end July for my graduation.. Hahaz..
Okie, i shall go tuck in soon so that i can start the week all energised and fresh.. Then can produce AWESOME QUALITY WORK for all my assignments.. Cheers people! Oh ya! Sheryl FAT LIAO!! Gain 5 KG since i arrived here.. Oh my, i so do not want to relive my Shanghai days.. Hahaz!!

Fun week!
WHOAH! Just finished clearing up the POOL PARTEH that we had.. Hahaz.. Had a really great time with all the food, chatting and just chilling out together.. Not forgetting to mention that 'I was forced to jump into the pool' part.. Hahaz!!
This week has been busy with school as usual.. But i went to stay with Felicia at Hilton when she was here! We had nice Korean dinner and Western breakfast together!! Hahaz.. Had a great time catching up, telling each other wonderful stories and updating one another..
These few days have been really stressed with Financial Management.. With the mid-semester test coming this Thursday, and an essay due on the same day, it is so not funny.. Moreover, i want to finish another report before Lisa comes so that i can fully enjoy myself when she is here.. ARGH! So much work to do! So little discipline! Wanted to pull my hair out when i was doing Financial Management yesterday cause i kept getting wrong answers! Hope that for mid-semester i can stay steady and calm..
I am SO LOOKING forward to this Saturday cause LISA IS COMING TO TOWN!! HAHAZ! So high lah! I am already thinking of the things to do.. Can cook and bake together, drink hot milo under the stars, gossip, snuggle together and so much more lesbian stuff!! Whoah~
Okie! I better get back to my work before i drag even more.. Argh, need to get so much done, but lack so much discipline! Irritated!
You can do it Sheryl.. You KNOW you can, and you WILL... =)

Memories..
I just watched the video of Ping Yi's performance at the recent SYF Competition 2010.. I am so touched by it, it actually made me cry.. I am so proud of all of them, and it also did bring back so0o0o0o0o0o much memories of my band days back in secondary schools..
Now Ping Yi has something to be proud of, the Band, like how Springfield was ONCE so ever glorified by the band as well.. I suddenly just felt this sudden pain emotionally, that it is such a waste for us to have split.. Because of teachers who are LAZY BUMS and wanted to wreck things apart, it has cost the school so dearly to lose one of its glory.. Band used to be the motivation for us to go to school, to study and to show the teachers that we band members can do it.. Now, i can only say that Springfield is so in the slumps with students that are so innocently dragged down due to some idiotic teachers.. Oh wells, i guess that is life right.. Win some, lose some...
This time round the marching style is really different and unique.. I kinda prefer the older style, maybe because i can relate more to it.. But this style is awesome too! In fact, i can see them getting gold with honors in 2012.. BUT! They still need to continue to work hard and not be complacent..
All i want to say is, I AM SO PROUD OF YOU ALL! WELL DONE! I AM SO PROUD AND HAPPY THAT ALL OF YOU HAVE COME SO FAR!
MR POH AND THE REGULAR ALUMNI, BRAVO!! =)
JIA YOU AND MY SINCERE BEST WISHES TO YOU ALL!

This week has been rather fruitful to me.. Well, i worked, slacked, went to Surfers Paradise and Harbour Town, star gazed, celebrated Perlin's 21st and did some school work.. Noticed that the school work is at the end cause I really did minimal work as compared to what I have done the past 2 semesters..
Have been busy working and having fun.. Oh my, i spent $100 at Gold Coast on Wednesday on clothes and food! But not bad, i managed to DRIVE there and back! So exciting lah!! Driving is actually very fun, though stressful when the GPS decides to die on you.. Hahaz! Have to relay on road signs and intuition.. Hahaz..
Don't know why today like no mood to blog.. Maybe cause got headache and have been reading 3 stupid journal articles that needs so much brain power to understand.. OMG, my poor brain cells.. Hahaz..
OH! But i have something that I MUST SHARE!! Ping Yi Military Band got GOLD for the SYF Outdoor Band Competition 2010! WHOAH!! I am so happy and proud of all of them!! Wheeee! Hahaz.. That is the only major news i have to share though.. Hahaz!!
Oh, i also did star gaze at my backyard on Friday night, by the pool with Huai An.. We had a good topic discussion, about life here, life back in Singapore, relationships, expanding one's social circle, religion and many many more.. I never knew that the back of the house is such a good place to relac one corner! Hahaz! Just that, how i wish i could share it with people really special.. =)
This week has been a good break, even though the stress not really in yet.. Hahaz! From this week onwards, assignment deadlines are POURING in and I HAVE TO CHIONG LIAO!! No more slacking!! ARGH!! This Wednesday i have a presentation and i REALLY want to excel in it.. Hope it would be good enough for my tutor and my classmates would like the presentation! No, more like LOVE! Hahaz..
I shall get back to reading journals and hopefully have a fruitful night to end this really awesome week.. I am so counting down to the days till i graduate.. But then again, I know that somehow, I WILL miss this place, especially when you have got awesome housemates like Craig and Huai An.. Not forgetting Yu Jin and Tian Chuang...
So JIA YOU Sheryl!! The marathon is starting in 2 weeks time, so prepare yourself, be all geared up and make sure you do your very best until the last bit of energy is squeezed out of you! Cheers people!

Mid-sem Break!
WHOAOH! Tomorrow no school! It is the start of the mid-semester break! YIPEE!! Wha lau, but then ah, it is also high time for me to get started with my assignments man.. I am SO WAY BEHIND TIME... Oh no!
I have been busy with work, but NOT school work.. Hahaz! Wha, this weekend was the Easter weekend! So on Good Friday, i got my pay at a rate of 2.5! AWESOME RIGHT!! Hahaz.. Then yesterday and today is normal rate.. But oh wells, better than nothing eh! After all, the greatest satisfaction i get from working is when someone tells me that they have had an AWESOME cup of coffee made by me! Hahaz! Which i did on Friday! So happy lah!!
Yesterday we went to Sunny Banks.. Got to know of a new asian grocery store, which sells loads of Taiwan products! Hahaz.. Next time, IF going again i shall head there to get my items! OH! I finally got my MANTOU! YIPEE!! Yesterday was a torture lah , i had to so super control my spending.. Cannot buy more stuff because my cupboard is so stuffed with food items!! Hahaz! so guai know, i only bought 4 items yesterday..
Then after that we went for dinner at this Taiwan restaurant and had bubble tea!! Hahaz! I had an AWESOME time driving too! I love to drive lah! so fun! And it gives me the chance to practice!! Thanks babes for entrusting me with the car and your lives! Hahaz!
I am so sian right now, very restless yet am really tired from work and running.. I went running with Huai An today! He brought me to this SUPER STEEP SLOPE to run.. OMG! I have NOT ran up such a steep slope in my life before lah.. Apparently, there is another steeper one! Okie, i shall make an attempt to run up the other one when i am comfortable with the current one.. And ah, i ran so slow lah.. Machiam tortoise sia.. Hahaz.. It is like half the speed of Huai An.. super paiseh,. Hahaz! But i had a great time running lah, because running with a buddy is always so much more fun than running alone..
Okie, i think i shall get back to my TV! Watching Devil Wears Prada right now! Then i think i will sleep early.. Tomorrow is going to mark a new start, a start to kick my butt to get started on ALL my assignments and to finish at least 1 of them! You can do it Sheryl! Find back the discipline that you had since semester one! JIA YOU!!
Oh, it is so depressing that my Graduation Day is on the LAST DAY of the graduation week! ARGH! Means i can only go back Singapore like the END of July lah.. Thought can go back earlier.. SIan.. Oh wells, at least i am graduating! =) With high distinctions i hope! Hehe..

1/3 done through the semster! Well, almost..
Considering that fact that there is 13 weeks of school, excluding all the holidays and stuff, i am about 1/3 done with the last semester! OH MY GOODNESS! Now i believe when people tell me that the last semester flies TOO FAST!! It is like, 4 weeks has gone pass! A month! It is really amazing how time flies this semester, and i think it is because i am busy with school, work and having fun!
Talk about fun, i am so enjoying the alone time with Huai An and Craig.. If only it could remain like that for like, till i graduate! Hahaz! IF lah ah.. OH! Today i had a FIELD TRIP! Self proclaim that is.. Craig found out that our neigbours have a MACADAMIA TREE planted which is accessible through our backyard! So, Huai An, Craig and me went to PICK MACADAMIA NUTS! Oh my goodness, they are SO FRESH, when you eat them, it is not crunchy, but firm yet soft.. It is so interesting lah!!
This week also did many stuff! Had pizza night, had Taco night, had Kebab and Pita Pocket lunch and more!! More food, no wonder my mum says i look rounder over the webcam.. Oh no! Re-living the Shanghai experience! NO!!!! Hahaz!
Also, i am really happy cause this week or rather this semester, i have been reconnected with Lisa.. We have been sms-ing like some hopeless romantic couple that is being torn godzillion miles away! Hahaz! I really hope this is for real and it would maintain for long! Looking forward to the possibility to travel together after we graduate!
Wha, tomorrow is the start of week 5, then it is the Mid-Semester Break! I SUPER need to get my assignments done lah! All due in like no time and i have not even completed one! When my friends have already completed like at least 2! I AM SO SUPER SLACK THIS SEMESTER and i do not know why!! ARGH!!
Tomorrow is the start of the new week.. Find the hardworking you back Sheryl Chua, you NEED TO if you want to do well and graduate well.
Till then, cheers everyone! I need to go check on the biscotti that i am baking.. New recipe, first attempt.. See lah, do EVERYTHING else except assignments.. ARGH

SUPER GROSS!!!
You know how it feels when you are so tired from school, and all you want is to have a good shower to refresh yourself.. Going to the bathroom, getting ready to shower and then you see this:

ITS LIKE WHAT THE HELL?! WHO THE F*** STICKS THEIR HAIR ON THE SHOWER GLASS DOOR PANEL?!
WHO ELSE RIGHT?! When there is ONLY 2 females in the house..
This has not happened once or twice, but in fact THREE TIMES!
Super DISGUSTED and PISSED right now..

Survived Week 3!!
Yipee! I have survived another week of school! Oh my goodness, this week's Financial Management Tutorial is SO NOT FUNNY! Had to keep asking Huai An cause i do not know how to do.. I reckon i should put a study table in his room, then when i do FM, no need walk here and there.. HAHAZ!
Well, this week i got to pay $50 penalty for adding a course late.. Stupid and blur me, but oh wells.. I would take it as an investment then, for a better future as the course i am studying now would be more beneficial to my career.. So yeah.. Wha, this week is filled with loads of good food and desserts with Craig whipping up dishes whenever he can! Friday night got Lasagna, Saturday night Chicken Noodle Stew and today got ROAST PORK and Chocolate Cake with Ice Cream! Hahaz! The amazing cooker that he has is damn cool man.. Hahaz! Can roast, steam, bake, etc...
I also finally started work this week.. IT WAS CRAZY CAN! Run here and there like mad, never stop one leh.. It always never fails to amaze me how the customers come in ONE WHOLE SHOT rather than a constant stream.. Hahaz.. But then again, i think it is because got some event, so got more people.. It is really madness man, i was perspiring like mad.. But i think not as shiong as banquet, Mandarin Oriental has truly trained me well! Hahaz! I kinda find it good that it is busy, cause time FLIES and i can keep practicing how to make better coffees! When my family comes for my graduation, i MUST bring them to the cafe and personally make the MOST awesome coffee for them! MUAHAHAZ!
I finally feel the stress to start on my essay le.. Hahaz! After procrastinating for 3 weeks.. But then again i got this bad habit of adding as much information as i can.. Oops! Hahaz! Now my word document is filled with website links and points off my head.. SO MESSY! Hahaz!
OH OH OH!! This week i went on a CEREAL SPREE!! I bought 4 boxes of cereal!! Hahaz! Cause they on sale, and 1 is a new product, so just try loh!! HAHAHZ!! Lazy to post the photo up, maybe i will soon.. I think next week will be chocolate spree!! Hahaz! Buy M&Ms and Tim Tam for Khairul, and more chocolate for myself! In fact, i have already bought 3 blocks and 2 packets of chocolate to last me for a while.. HAHAZ!!
Oh my goodness, i think my cabinet is SUPER well stocked for war man.. Even Huai An see le also say.. I think he got a BIG shock lah!! Hahaz! Bad habit, just like a hamster, love to store but never eat.. Hahaz! Seriously, my cupboard is so full of food, no need to worry man! Hahaz!! But most of them from last semester one.. Hahaz! Should go and take a picture of it and post it soon.. HAHAHZ!!

2 weeks gone!!
WHOAH!! I am yet again a week closer to graduation and home!! Hahaz.. School just started only i so excited liao.. This week i have done something stupid, which i hope i am able to fix it like ASAP! I went to drop a course, THINKING that 31st March is the last day to do it.. So i happily dropped it, then REALISED that actually 12 March was the last day! So after dropping it, i could not add the desired course!! So now i am taking 3 courses when i NEED 4 to graduate! OMG! So in a paranoid and panic mode now!! Seriously just praying hard that things will turn out fine! Like get this done ASAP so i can study in peace and catch up with what i have missed in the previous lessons... FINGERS ARE REALLY CROSSED TO THE MAX!
So this week i had school and it was great! Hahaz.. I went to watch Avenue Q with Benedict and it is a TRULY AWESOME SHOW!! Super adult contents that would make you laugh like mad!! Really enjoyed the show.. And we had 1 X GOOD ONE of savoury crepes and blackforest chocolate pancakes!! Fattening but who cares, damn worth it!!
I had fun too with Yujin and Tian Chuang! We were supposed to watch a movie at the Limestone Park last night and they made Sushi.. Then they played the cartoon Tom and Jerry, so we left, NOT KNOWING that usually they will play some cartoons first then play the TRUE MOVIE! OMG, SO LOSER LAH!! Hahaz.. But not bad lah, we headed back to their place, Yujin made Miso soup and we watched Music and Lyrics!! AWESOME MAN!! GOOD FOOD, GOOD MOVIE, GOOD COMPANY TOO!! =)
Today we also cooked a great meal together!! Craig made roast pork that was super dry and shoik, then Huai An made Lemon Chicken that was DELICIOUS and Tian Chuang and Yujin made bread and butter pudding that was scrumptious!! As usual i made vegetables that was tasty to me but tasteless to the rest.. OOPS! Hahaz!!
I am so full now with the milk and cream from the pudding churning in my stomach.. But it was super worth it!! Okie lah, now i need to be prepared for another week of school and also to get back to work!! Both school and real work! Going back to work this Saturday.. And i need to start on my assignments!! No more dragging Sheryl Chua!! If not end of the semester not enough time le!! Argh!!
Okie, i shall go continue to slack to end this week and start to work harder tomorrow then.. HAHAZ! Pray super hard that all will work out fine!! GO GO GO SHERYL!!

1 week has passed...
So, a week at school has passed and i have done pretty much i feel.. Hahaz! I have made MANY grocery trips and had much dinners eating with different friends! Things are starting to get back on track and i hope i settle down fast enough in order to get the momentum going again.. A 3 month break is really long enough for one to lose contact with the study self.. Hahaz!
I have finally moved all my items back to my new place.. But i am missing my Ipswich water bottle, tweety slippers and MY FAVOURITE CUP! So depressing.. To make things worse, i was in the city with Tian Chuang, Yu Jin and Joe on Friday and we went to City Beach.. MY MAXI DRESS IS NOW WORTH HALF ITS PRICE WHEN I FIRST BOUGHT IT! OMG! But okie lah, i wore the dress for Daryl's wedding and that is really worth much more than the $40 difference of the dress.. Hahaz.. Win some, lose some i guess..
Now i am in a dilemma, should i take a course that is easy to pass and maybe score but is not that beneficial? Or take one that is super beneficial but has a high risk in not doing well? I have asked MANY people and most of them support the decision in taking the more difficult but beneficial courses.. I guess to make it big in life, you have to take bigger risks too! Hahaz! So i have decided to take Fundraising and Hotel Ops and Mgt... Okie lah ah, i shall prove that no matter how shiong or tough things get, I WILL SURVIVE! Having survived Hotel Technology, i guess it shows that this semester would be fine too!! After all, i have got Tian Chuang with me! Hahaz!
Being back here without the Campus View Babes has forced me to come out of my little hiding shell and to reconnect with the awesome friends around.. I have been hanging out with Tian Chuang and Yu Jin recently and we have made so much stayover plans together.. HAHAZ! It is really fun having them around and they really do help me settle back in.. Huai An is back too! So the house is more Singaporean-ish now i guess? Hahaz! Today i cooked dinner for Huai An, Craig, Yu Jin and Tian Chuang! Made Laksa Fried Rice and Brownie! Wha, the Laksa Fried Rice is DAMN nice lah!! Thanks to AWESOME recommendation from Joyce Chen!! Hahaz!
Went to the Brisbane Chinatown yesterday with Joyce Chen and Shirley and i spent $50 on Asian Groceries! OMG! So much money spent this week! Hahaz! I am SUPER well stocked man! Got all the canned food, preserved pickles, bee hoon, soba noodles, miso paste and much much more! Oh! I also got my Hup Seng Cream Crackers to go with Coffee! MUAHAHAZ!
Okie, so tomorrow school starts at 9am and i super need to be sleeping soon.. Hahaz! Although i am taking 4 modules this semester, but i am going to attend 5 lectures! Cause i am interested in too many! And i pay so much, should make use of my time here right!! Hahaz! OH! And i got my work back! YIPEE!! Means i can work to earn my own living expenses!! Just need to ensure that it does not affect my studies and i have enough time for my assignments and all will be fine!!
NO WORRIES SHERYL! YOU WILL DO WELL THIS SEMESTER AGAIN! YOU KNOW YOU CAN DO IT AND YOU HAVE ALL THE SUPPORT YOU NEED BACK HOME! DO NOT FEAR THE SUBJECTS/FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT, LET THE PAPER FEAR YOU! =)
My new found family!

Fattening but AWESOME day!
Today my job was just to eat non-stop.. Hahaz! In the morning we went to my driving instructor's house where his wife whipped up a few dishes for us.. So i took a plate of bee hoon, chicken curry and potatoes and superb otah.. Then after some chit chat, i zoomed off to Khairul's place for round 2.. His mum also made food for us, so we attacked the WHOLE DUCK, prawn and also celery.. IT WAS AWESOME LAH!!
Then after some chit chatting and gobbling up a bowl of Korean Strawberries, i zoomed home to prepare for the arrival of my poly mates.. Coincidently, i saw my uncles and aunts downstairs as i was parking the car.. I was not expecting them as i was not informed that they were coming.. So when my poly mates started coming, we were pushing my humble abode to the limits.. HAHAZ! So we all went into my room where the air-con decided to give up on me.. so we had to relay on two SUPER powerful fan.. HAHAZ!
When Shi Hui and Hazel arrived, we started our food saga.. Hahaz! From Kueh Bahlu, to MY Pineapple Tarts, MY cookies, dried fruit and vegetable chips, chocolate and strawberry Hello Panda, Bah KWA (Not gua ah Hazel..), Nonya and Strawberry Love Letters. Taiwan's Pineapple Tarts, Dehydrated Sweet Potatoes, MY MUM'S Green Bean Soup, Dried Mango and ultimately, Marshmallow WITH Tobasco sauce.. MUAHAHAZ! We had a great time chatting, munching, not caring about fats but just simply enjoying ourselves.. Of course we also took quite a few photos to start off a great year!!
Then after that, we decided to go for MORE food! HAHAZ! We, no more like I drove everyone to Terminal 3 to have Popeye's Chicken!! Ordered a AUSPICIOUS FEAST man and we all shared the food.. Actually all full know, but don't care, whack only!! HAHAZ! Life is too short to care too much, so just enjoy and live it while we can!! But now my stomach feel super queasy and i think cause i ate TOO MUCH today.. HAHAZ!
After that we drove back and then went home!! So today has been really awesome.. A gathering once in a while really warms the heart.. Then as i was driving back, i realised i am going back to Aussie in 10 days time.. I should be looking forward to it, however, it seems like i am carrying a heavy heart.. Oh wells, soon it will all be done and over with.. You have got the well wishes of MANY people, so Sheryl you must do your best and do everyone and yourself proud, especially pa,ma and gor.. Jia you!
Then after some chit chatting and gobbling up a bowl of Korean Strawberries, i zoomed home to prepare for the arrival of my poly mates.. Coincidently, i saw my uncles and aunts downstairs as i was parking the car.. I was not expecting them as i was not informed that they were coming.. So when my poly mates started coming, we were pushing my humble abode to the limits.. HAHAZ! So we all went into my room where the air-con decided to give up on me.. so we had to relay on two SUPER powerful fan.. HAHAZ!
When Shi Hui and Hazel arrived, we started our food saga.. Hahaz! From Kueh Bahlu, to MY Pineapple Tarts, MY cookies, dried fruit and vegetable chips, chocolate and strawberry Hello Panda, Bah KWA (Not gua ah Hazel..), Nonya and Strawberry Love Letters. Taiwan's Pineapple Tarts, Dehydrated Sweet Potatoes, MY MUM'S Green Bean Soup, Dried Mango and ultimately, Marshmallow WITH Tobasco sauce.. MUAHAHAZ! We had a great time chatting, munching, not caring about fats but just simply enjoying ourselves.. Of course we also took quite a few photos to start off a great year!!
Then after that, we decided to go for MORE food! HAHAZ! We, no more like I drove everyone to Terminal 3 to have Popeye's Chicken!! Ordered a AUSPICIOUS FEAST man and we all shared the food.. Actually all full know, but don't care, whack only!! HAHAZ! Life is too short to care too much, so just enjoy and live it while we can!! But now my stomach feel super queasy and i think cause i ate TOO MUCH today.. HAHAZ!
After that we drove back and then went home!! So today has been really awesome.. A gathering once in a while really warms the heart.. Then as i was driving back, i realised i am going back to Aussie in 10 days time.. I should be looking forward to it, however, it seems like i am carrying a heavy heart.. Oh wells, soon it will all be done and over with.. You have got the well wishes of MANY people, so Sheryl you must do your best and do everyone and yourself proud, especially pa,ma and gor.. Jia you!

Back in Town, AGAIN!
Yoz yoz yoz! Hotstuff is back in town!! After traveling to Taiwan and working, i am finally preparing for the Chinese New Year and also my trip back to Aussie! My goodness, time flies like i do not know what man.. It seems like just 2 weeks back that i just came back from Aussie, and now i am going back again.. ARGH..
My Taiwan trip has been interesting.. Of course it consisted of alot of food, some shopping and alot of interesting things to learn in life.. Shopping has pretty much been minimal as we only spent like a maximum of 1.5hrs at a night market.. I mean seriously, what can we do in such a short span? I was staying at a hotel right smack at Ximending, but i did not get a chance to shop there.. So ironic eh..
Then come back le i worked for Airshow and have met MANY ministers man.. The aura that they give off is just, too awesome.. Hahaz.. And it is so true that when you are a big shot, you get SUPER AWESOME service..
I intended to give a super long blog entry.. But then i got lazy again.. Hahaz! So pathetic right.. Hahaz.. Baked pineapple tarts today, wha, look like those you can buy commercially man.. Super got standard! Hahaz, super self praise is disgrace..

Half gone..
Time REALLY flies man.. Half of my holidays has flew past me in like a matter of seconds.. Yet i have so many things that i have not done/settled and i am already running out of time! Talk about running, i have been so lazy to run that i think it is seriously affecting my mood.. Haiz..
Well, as usual i have been rather busy working.. This week not so much though as i am going to Taiwan next week! Yipee! Finally i am going to Taiwan! Hahaz.. Monday i met up with my dear poly babes, and as usual, we had an AWESOME time together! Chatting about our future, joking with one another and not forgetting cam-whoring!! Hahaz.. We chilled-out at our 'secret hideout' till we almost missed the last train home! Hahaz.. It is really amazing how time just seems to be going against us when we are together.. And i am always so grateful that the 5 of us despite being a rather large group, always put in our best efforts to meet up whenever possible despite all of our busy schedules.. I really love you babes loads!! Not forgetting the WIDE VARIETY of topics that we can chat!! To reach HIGHER GROUNDS people! HAHAZ!
Then i worked yesterday, which was not a very positive experience, but definitely a good learning experience.. So yeah.. Then today i met Lisa and Charity.. Had a really bad headache so was in quite a foul mood, plus yesterday's experience kind of made it worse.. I am sorry babes if i have been a real wet blanket today.. =(

Regular Update...
Okie.. I have been either busy eating with my family or busy working.. That has pretty much been my lifestyle for the past week.. Well.. I managed to do some exciting stuffs at Sentosa.. I took the Skyride, Ludge and watched the Song of the Sea show.. Oh! I also managed to PICNIC at Tanjong Beach! HAHAZ! Not so super loser eh.. Hahaz! But i have to say, Sentosa is really a CAN MAKE IT tourist destination.. Maybe because we are Singaporeans, so we do not see the beauty of Sentosa.. But with the various attractions and new facilities coming up, i think it is going to do well.. (So talking like some tourism expert.. HAHAZ!)
And i have been working back at Oriental.. Love the environment there.. But i think i need to take more initiative, to learn more.. Learn how the management deals with the various stakeholders, such as the guests, employees and employers.. It is really amazing how they can handle all these people with such professionalism... I need to mindfully be more attentive and observant!! New year resolution!!
Hahaz.. So today i baked Banana and Walnut muffin and Pandan Cake.. Not bad, but the pandan cake a little too wet, think i never bake long enough.. Or maybe the temperature not hot enough.. Hahaz.. Oh wells, first attempt so should give chance eh.. Hahaz!
I also met up with Charity and Lisa today.. Like FINALLY lah! Hahaz.. Since i am back, i think this is the VERY FIRST TIME we purposely met up.. Hahaz.. All the busy schedules makes it really challenging to set a specific time to meet.. Can you two imagine when we all have boyfriends or a family, WHERE GOT TIME TO MEET SIA?! Oh, and no worries lah, you two will surely find a god husband.. Take your time, no need to rush or get stressed over the M matter yeah! This kind of thing, rather marry late than marry the wrong one! =)
So i am looking forward to our next meet up then! Chill and take care everyone!! =)
