This happened to be a really old drawing of mine, you can see the proper drawing+colouring minus any rubbish photoshopping here. It's super messy because I decided not to use my usual method which usually results in big files, many layers and take many days. I decided to use my Wacom bamboo and pretended that I had a set of colour pencils. It's purple-ish, but that was unintentional. I have no idea why, but my subconscious seems to feel that purple is the new black.
It has been a while since I blogged. Once again, many things have happened and I have no idea where to start. Which means that I will never start.
The past 2 months and 9 days have been really relaxing. Most of the time, I'm at home slacking. The only times I get out was to do a bit of happy jogging, shopping and a few meet-ups.
I bought a new camera (Canon Ixus 860is) to replace my beautiful WHITE sony t10 which I lost in Barcelona. It's an old but tried and tested model. Not as pretty as a cybershot but pretty things seem to disappear all the time.
I went to the gym with Annabelle last week! My first time in a gym since I landed in Terminal 3. She signed me in as a guest at this club and we tried various methods to lose enough calories to eat a cheesecake... in which we decided to have after the whole gym workout + jacuzzi + steam room treatment. =) Lol, I've been so pampered in Singapore, I don't think I'll be able to go back to the regular sessions in Ethos when I return to London. Which is REALLY bad because I gained TEN kg since my JC days. Somehow, I think the more you try to do something, the worse it gets. Maybe it's time to stop trying so hard. Then again, it was precisely because I stopped trying to hard that I gained 4 kg in the last 2 months.
I met up with Xiao Ting, Jie Ying and Constance to celebrate Constance's 20th birthday. It was great to see them again. It's amazing how fast time flies... TWO-ZERO. In a few years, we have to make all the important decisions in our lives - career, marriage etc. =/
Before I met the girls for lunch, I was talking to this stranger from Canberra. (I was outside SLS, trying to fiddle with my newly-bought camera. Me, being having butterfingers dropped something and this guy picked it up for me.) 28 years old, taking a vacation in sunny Singapore, likes skiing, wakeboarding and other similar sports. He asked me what's fun to do in Singapore and I couldn't give an answer. It's not because I'm a lousy Singaporean, it's just mainly because I cannot relate to 28 year old men. If it was a woman, I'll probably be telling her all the shopping areas. =/ How am I supposed to know what men like to do?
That probably explains why I'm still 'evergreen' and enjoying singlehood. I guess I'm just lazy. I don't wish to work so hard to create a world for two. And I don't really want anyone to go through the agony of climbing over this infinitely long and wide wall which separates my world from his. I prefer to just wait for someone with the key to unlock the door. Or at least an oreo to come knocking. (I meant that literally. No wonder I'm not losing weight. YUM.) Even then, I don't even know if I'll expect him to stay in my world forever (which is quite a horrible condition for me to impose on someone else). I just hope that when I go past the big THREE-ZERO, no one will think I'm this loser spinster who won't answer the nation's calling to start a family. I guess the only way for it to be acceptable to stay single is to become a super career woman. Moral of the story? Time to work harder for 2nd year of EEE.
Yesterday the Spongebobs (my OG in Sojourn 08) were supposed to have a gathering. Some of them went to sing K, another group went to play pool and then we all met for dinner. After which, most of them left, leaving only a sad group of 3 OGLs and 3 freshers at Timbre. I hope our next outing will have a better attendance rate... but considering that I suggested to walk the Southern Ridges, I don't think it will be that successful. People seem to have a misconception on the relative length of 9km. Then again, who am I to say anything? If someone asked me to do 2.4km I'll scream. I'm a distance person, not a timing person. I rather do 15 km in 2 hours then do 2.4km in 13 minutes or whatever the passing time is these days. Which probably explains why I'm not as fit as some people who are 3 times my age. *sighs*
I should have gone running.
Random statement 38:
"To venture is to cause anxiety, not to do so is to lose one's self. The venture to the highest point is to be precise of yourself."
