Cute Cats

DRAWING has always been part of my life and have always drawn since I was young. So, I have decided to upload this picture that I have sketched before coming to NAFA.  

I kind of randomly chose this picture to draw but I do love cats ! One of the many pets that I would love to have is cats ! Oh my god, I love animals. Especially when I first saw the picture of these 2 cats on the internet, I was determined to draw them as they are so cute to the max !  But after all it’s just a sketch, it may not be so detailed as what you see in pictures though.

 One of the reason was also to try to brush up my skills for not sketching for awhile. I have been working as a sales assistant for close to 5 months and been going to the gym as well as going out, resulting in me not being able to sketch more sketches ! 

But I will try to continue to sketch more sketches but school work is taking almost all my time ! ARGH. I don’t care ! I am just going to try to make it a habit to sketch as much as I can for my ownself! Got to do what I love man !

GYM !!!

                              (At the gym)

(My dumbbells for home workout)

Hello there! Recently I have been so busy with my school work that I’m kind of neglecting my usual work out routine to go to the gym. 

I have been sleeping so little and burning so much midnight oil that I also recently fell sick and was down with a slight fever. But now that I have recovered alittle, I have decided to dedicate some of my precious time into working out. 

 Training a wide range of body parts from biceps , triceps , forearm , back , legs and chest ! No pain no gain right?  Nowadays, I have hardly any time to head down to the gym but I have decided that this won’t do. So, last Saturday , I dedicated my 2 hours of time which should be spent on doing assignments to head to the gym ! 

  Although I have dumbbells at home to do some home-workout, but nothing beats the wide range of equipments at the gym for you to use right?! There is only so much you can do with just dumbbells only at home… IF only I have a room dedicated for gym equipments ! How nice could that be? But it will be impossible. The equipments are way too expensive. Haha. Sometimes, i just wonder why dumbbells are in certain shapes. Who knows next time there will be like dumbbells shaped in a triangular form or something ! It will be cool! 

 Ugh. Gym isn't always easy. It’s hard to gain, but I will still do it. Being healthy is important after all.  GYM TIMEEEEE !!!!

As quoted from Rikki Rogers, “ Strength doesn’t come from what you can do. It comes from overcoming the things you thought you couldn’t.”

Band of Brothers.

Today yet again , is another day to be added to my precious memory. I was very thrilled as I got to meet up with my secondary school mates and have a great dinner together at Astons @ Scape! Despite going to different tertiary schools, we still keep in contact together and we make sure we try to meet up every now and then just to catch up.

 In just this group of friends alone, most of us are spreaded out in different schools such as all the polytechnics such as Republic Polytechnic, Nanyang Polytechnic, Ngee Ann Polytechnic, Singapore Polytechnic, Temasek Polytechnic and the Institute of Technical Education, and here I am, in NAFA. 

Although I am like the only one here, but never once was we separated by being in different schools. These friends of mine are like brothers to me, a band of brothers. Always taking care of each another, encouraging each another when we are down and the times we have been through together are priceless. 

The ‘O’ levels examination wasn’t an easy exam, and being from the Normal Academic stream,  from secondary 4 NA to secondary 5 NA was a huge jump and even some of us couldn’t cope with the stress and yet, we still did it and passed the examinations! Life isn’t always going to be easy but as long as you persevere and work hard , together with your friends and family that stand by you, you will succeed.

 This is what I believe in, and these people are like my family as well. A big family, filled with only brothers!

Delicious Food.

(Picture 1)

Today, dinner was alittle different. I have met up with some friends of mine and went to “chomp chomp” , a pretty famous hawker centre at Serangoon Gardens. It’s been awhile since we have met but we sure have eaten there to our heart’s content! 

There is not only a wide variety of food being served there but also the price quite reasonable, just slightly more expensive than normal hawker centres though. We have ordered food like grilled sambal stingray , fried carrot cake , satays , chicken wings and the drinks there are so ridiculously huge that can last you for the entire dinner without having to order a new one (Picture 1). All of the foods that I have mentioned is always a must order food whenever I head over there to eat. 

The food may be high in calories which is very bad for me but I guess it’s okay for me to eat such delicacies once in awhile right? Guess i will just have to work out in the gym more often to burn those calories ! Guilty pleasures of life I guess , Haha. After dinner, we went to a nearest void deck to relax and to help one of my friend with a project which needed us to role-play as certain characters which he will take photos for his project. 

Since he needed our help for his project, we were all okay with helping him. Afterall friends always help each another ! We had fun taking pictures and after helping him, we were alittle bored so we decided to do some ridiculous stuff as can be seen from Picture 2. And yes, that's me in the middle doing the punching the floor thing, making everyone fly with my impact. It was certainly fun taking random photos like this!

After all, photography is also a form of art that exist to capture moments that are memorable. 

Self-Introduction.

Hey ! I’m back , this time with my very own self-introduction of myself ! Sorry that I had took so long just to have a self-introduction. I was looking through my blog earlier and I felt that something was  missing and that was my self-introduction. How can one not introduce one’s self from the very beginning?! Anyways , heres my side of my story, my introduction and my life.

I’m currently 17 years old this year, a January baby born on the 1^st of January and I’m currently studying in NAFA. I’m pretty much a simple, out-going but sensitive person as a whole.

I always believe in mutual respect and treating everyone with sincerity. Some people may say I’m cold and that I may look like a bully from the first impression they have for me, but trust me, get to know me, and I’m not what I look like. Do not judge a book by it’s cover is what I always believe in and I will always, too be not quick to judge who you are unless I know you well.

I have pretty much interesting hobbies to keep me well-entertained whenever I’m bored. I don’t deny the fact that I’m big sized but I love going to the GYM to workout whenever I can and whenever I’m free as I believe in keeping fit and healthy.  Sometimes, I would even head down to the nearby park connector and run to my heart’s content, sweat everything out like nobody’s business. I like to cook too ! Being able to cook your own meals and for your family and friends is such an awesome thing to do and fun experience.( I would say I am second to my mother who is definitely a better cook than me! Haha.)

During my free time, I would also sit down the entire day, with pencils of all grades and my sketchbook to draw many things from organic items to animals and even still life. I must say, all of these hobbies are like part of my life, can never be apart from me as these hobbies are all part of me !

Moving on, I also have a favorite drink ! That is Green Tea !!!! (Sometimes, i would go for milk or soya bean milk too !)I don’t like any carbonated drinks like coca-cola or such as they are high in sugar content  and are unhealthy for your health ! As for foods, I am easy going and consume any type food that is being placed on the table.  I hate wasting food as I feel that it is a luxury to have food being placed on the table and one should never waste it ! Haha.

I guess that’s about the basic self-introduction that I have for myself ! I also accept any suggestions/criticism about my behavior, like the way I talk etc. as I always believe that one should always try to improve one’s self. I am flawed , not perfect.
