Y1S1
Hi. Haven't been posting much because I've been so busy with school. In fact, I might just conveniently abandon the 30 Day Challenge hahaha.
But those who await patiently are often duly rewarded... After 6 months of owning my iPhone, I've decided to sync it to my laptop for the very first time! Which means lots of photos! Right now I'm still lazy to connect my camera to my laptop though. I really want to get an external hard disk drive so I can get all the files from my old laptop.
Today I'll be posting all the photos I took from last semester, from in school to the holidays. I left out the photos from my Tokyo/US trip because that merits another post on its own.
Really, there aren't a lot of photos though. I'm not that into photography these days.
All right so if you guys didn't already know, I'm in Ngee Ann Polytechnic, doing Mass Communication. (I'm really surprised at the amount of people asking me "What are you doing in poly?" because I'd thought plenty of people knew but apparently I was wrong). My class was T110 last semester but this semester our class name got changed to T105.
So here are some people from my class:
Theodore Craig Reyes aka Theo
Joshua Tan aka Josh (in blue hoodie, this photo of him isn't very flattering though),
and Terry Lam
Joyce Tan (whom I'm often seen with in class, especially last semester haha)
Theo and Izabella Chia aka Izzy (in green hoodie)
Of course there are more people but I don't really have photos of them, so here's a photo of my class taken from Joshua's Facebook:
I just realised how shitty the quality is. Anyway I made the picture larger so we can all be seen lol.
From L-R:
Josh / Davin / Piaomin / Aravin (jumping) / Danial / Pacy (blocked) / Dynn / Phoebe / Michelle / Cassandra (jumping) / Vanessa / Lindsay (jumping) / Farzana / Beatrice / Joyce / me / Izzy / Theo / Terry
Photo was taken after a trip to the museum for one of our modules.
I've realised that people in my course seem to have a tendency to shorten names. E.g. Joshua to Josh, Theodore to Theo, Phoebe to Pheebs, Vanessa to Van, Izabella to Izzy, etc. And I'm sure it's not just my class because Ziqi/Zeikei is referred to as "Zei" in her class.
Sometime last semester we had an outing to Sentosa (of course, not everyone was turned up). Here are the few photos taken by my phone:
Terry, who drove us from Vivo to Sentosa in his mum's car.
Others who took the car as well. Phoebe, Vanessa and Josh.
Terry drove Cassandra and I home.
Theo took my phone to indulge in narcissism one random day in school whilst we were waiting outside the LT for lecture to start. I remember Izzy thought my phone was Theo's phone because Theo uses an iPhone too.
A box of chocolates two of my classmates gave out during their Speech Comm presentation. Thought the box was cute so I took photos of the packaging.
In August, I celebrated Tan Kaiboonwen's birthday! Had dinner with her, Liyan, Sijia, Edwin, Yesheng and Wenhui at Boon Lay SAFRA's Sakura.
In the holidays...
One of the first few posts of this blog detailed my day out with Zexun and our fortune telling experience. Got information about the fortune teller from Sheryl/Shuwei via Twitter!
A Polaroid we got for free in town from this event Swatch was having.
The day I caught The Smurfs Movie with Theo and Joyce (also the day we had dinner with Josh at Nando's) was the day I first saw the movie poster of The Hunger Games. Although I may appear indifferent outwardly... I'm sure you can imagine how excited I am ;-) Can't wait to just skip into March 2012 already!
Because my cousin Shun had extra tickets, my brother and I tagged along with him to the F1 test drive and walked away with lighter wallets and increased knowledge about the F1.
Everything at the F1 is so ridiculously overpriced. This, supposedly a hot dog, cost me $10. The worst thing is, it didn't even taste that good.
Fishball noodles from the coffee shop near Fuhua on a random day. O how I miss the times we called the Fishball Noodles Auntie to place our orders in advance and rushed to finish our food so we wouldn't be late for class after lunch. I usually order guotiao while the others order mee tai mak (save for Elycia, who sometimes gets meepok).
Egg mayo sandwich from the sandwich shop at the Atrium. Although I don't really feel it's worth the $2.50 it costs, I still buy it anyway because I love it. This was before I left for Bangkok - I returned to school to try and inform the school that I'd be absent on the first day of school.
One of the mornings on the bus back to Fuhua. Organizer on the bag on my lap.
That's it for photo updates (for now). It seems people don't like reading posts with huge chunks of words anymore, and that, to me, is a rather sad thing. I'm trying hard to get back to how things used to be for me when writing, how easily the words seemed to just flow out of my mind, through my fingers, onto the page.
Last week I learnt of someone's opinion of me, which left me somewhat amused and appalled. I'm not sure if I should be glad that person thinks that way of me lol.
Gracomm has been tough but now that I'm getting the hang of Illustrator, things are slowly getting better. Now I'm just waiting for Choy Kok Kee to hurry up and reply my e-mail, though I guess I should count myself lucky if he does reply my e-mail by today because it's a Sunday.
