Being totally bored now isn't exactly something I should be complaining about now since I'll be extremely busy once school reopens.
Yet, I am feeling bored! Which totally sucks.
However, I do have a solution! I decided to make myself hungry by watching food videos, yes I am an idiot, on foodwishes.blogspot.com because the chef there is funny and his food comes out looking awesome.
Since I have so much time on my hands, I thought I might as well try out some of the simpler sounding recipes and up my cooking skill. I mean, if Sims can improve their cooking skill level by just watching cooking shows and cooking all the time, why not in real life? Isn't Sims supposed to emulate the perfect life?
Wait. I just said emulate perfect life. (If i used the word emulate correctly that is) Well... then obviously it won't exactly work here in real life where sadly nothing is perfect. In any case, it has to work to a certain extent, right?
Yes, I am just going to go with that. And no, I'm not obsessed with Sims to the point of bringing it to real life. I mean, some things in real life reminds me of Sims, like oh that person is angry, he probably has the angry moodlet. Or, that person just achieved something and has the Fulfilled moodlet. Mind you, it reminds me of it, but I don't go pasting squares of moodlets around me when I feel happy or sad.
It's too much work anyway.
I'm kidding, really.
Anyway, the peach cobbler I tried has been in the oven for about 10 minutes or so I guess and well, I'm still awaiting the results of it and whether it turns out edible or not. Hopefully it does!
Okay shall go back to.. I have no idea what.
Cheers!

Tuition
My ex-tuition teacher is awesome.
Not only did he help me with my math for four years straight, (I hate to think how my math would have been like without him) he also taught me the art of drinking tea.
Not by choice, sadly. I hated drinking tea in the past, like even iced lemon tea, really. But he always served tea in class:lemon, peach, green, Japanese green and his ultimate favorite as far as we students of his know; peppermint.
All of which I have grown to like, drink and in the end love after four years of gulping the much needed liquid to stay awake and focused during class.
That's not the end though. He also showered us with Japanese confections and sweets, especially around the time when the Hokkaido fair, hell any kind of Japanese fairs come to town. Even when it wasn't the 'fair season', we had occasional Royce chocolates and biscuits and all that Japanese goodness during math lessons.
I would ask you to be jealous but that wouldn't be nice of me.
Anyway. He also rewarded us for our good work. Or not so good work. Maybe it was for our hardwork? I don't really know, but man he did expose me to all the different kinds of gachapons, like wow. Squeezing such cool games into a little ball? So awesome.
Cracking lame and cold jokes(I mean ice cold) became a routine after Aldric joined us. Mainly because Aldric's a fan of cold jokes but well, it really made things so fun.
He has done so much over these few years and while I know that he will probably never see this, I want to say that he is one of the best teachers ever in my life and he is awesome. Mr Lee, you rock.
The reason I suddenly decided to type this is because about 20 minutes ago, I met him to pass some souvenirs my Mom got for him from Hokkaido and he actually had stuff to give me and my sis. I just felt once a student of his, always a student kind of feeling, you know?
I will attempt those nano-blocks as soon as possible since I'm on holiday and have loads of time. Thanks cher!
Cheers!
PS. Those peppermint sweets in my fridge are also a result of his influence/promoting of peppermint stuff. I'm just too lazy to find the tea.

To be... or not to be
I am having mixed feelings now.
On one hand, I'm sad. Well of course I'm sad damnnit. I'd be an unfeeling bitch to be feeling not sad right now. Sad to the point where you can feel the tears welling up inside you but its controllable.
Or that could be just me. Hm.
On the other hand, I feel normal. Like really normal. Meh meh.
But like, well, I'm alone again.
And before I continue, if this doesn't make sense to whoever actually bothers reading, it's not supposed to make sense until I tell you what happened or you get it from hearsay. Anyway.
Yeah and it kinda makes me sad. Like, what if it was a bad choice? What if the whole insecurity thing sets in again? What if its the start of the end?
Dun dun dun. Start of the end; how deep.
I guess it'll take some time for me to get used to being just me again. It'll be a long and painful(?) and depressing process but I guess I have to do it. I mean, I promised no tears will fall so that at least I can achieve; I think.
Well it's not like I can just burst out in tears to anyone these days. It's hard! Seeing their total loss of what to do look when you deliver earth shattering news to them while tears roll down their cheeks. I can't do that. It's hard.
So much going on in my life right now... and my face can still seem as if it's all right yo! kinda thing. Yet in a way, yeah, I believe it'll be all right in the end.
I'm sure it will.

Exercise
Went swimming today, like finally! I was sooooo happy to finally immerse myself in that cool water. Ahhhhh so happy.
Met Kezia in the morning and took a bus to SAFRA to swim. Actually, it ended up more like playing. Thanks to me, surprise surprise.
Well, recently I discovered this new and ohmygod totally cool and with cute looking guys anime ( yes hidden otaku inside excuse me ) named "Free!" and is mainly about friendship and swimming, I guess.
No, I am not attracted to the well defined muscle illustrations in the anime, in fact it weirds me out. I'm more attracted to their cuteness ohmygod. \(^-^)/
Anyway. That just amplified my desire to swim since weeks ago but because I'm a girl and have this annoying thing called periods which seems to arrive every single time I want to go swimming. Sigh.
Oh, back to today. I wanted to try this thing called the dolphin kick for all the wrong reasons. Okay, and one right reason.
Firstly, the right one because I totally want to learn it mainly because of this~ , well, use the legs to gain distance then my arms won't tire so quickly! That's my reasoning anyway.
Secondly, the wrong reason which is totally not the main factor why I want to learn it ahem, the guys in the anime look so cool swimming and I wanna swim nice like them too ~
Ugh. So mainstream. But who cares, I'm a partial ( I think ) otaku so, whatever. Sue me. Those guys are adorable.
But playing around in the water counts as exercise right? I mean, all the increased resistance in the water would require more force to overcome, no? Or so I like to think to convince myself I exercised.
But hey, I'm pretty sure I improved! I can swim one length of the pool without stopping! Which okay, I know that sounds really pathetic but come on, I couldn't. So this is an achievement, yay!
I wanted to go swimming tomorrow again but.. squash training T.T oh well, at least it's still exercise, right?
I love drifting in the pool so much!
Cheers!
