Holiday Week? Maybe.


More than half the week have passed while we are having our tutorial week also known as our ‘Holiday week’. We may call it holiday, and the school call it tutorial week, but it’s just a week to finish up all the different assignments that we have left out and catch up on it. 

Today is Friday already and I have been going to school everyday since the start of the week, Monday. We do our work in so many places, to the extend we almost covered the whole school I guess ! Now, we even have an ‘official’ classroom located in  Wing B to do our work as a class. 

The picture (top) was taken on Monday when we were kind of like ‘homeless people’ just sitting around the library to do some work. Inside the picture is me, Jun Ye, Wan and Adlyn. Awesome. Oh well, time passes fast when you are busy. It’s like 3:30 am now and I have to get some sleep before my make-up lessons for language art starts later! 

NIGHTS !

Green Tea-rific.



First day into the tutorial week, and here I am doing assignments. BUT I have decided to go for a short jog at night to relieve the stress that have been building up.

 It’s too late at night and I can’t possibly head to the gym which is not open, so I will head to my usual jogging route, Punggol park connector. There is just simply relaxing and quiet but it can really help. It’s like a nature’s way of giving therapy to relax our minds. 

After jogging for awhile, I would head to a nearby 7-eleven to get my drinks to hydrate myself. Yes, I know I should be drinking like plain water or H20 or something but who cares ! 

My favorite drink is green tea after all ! Although I am trying to switch my addiction and love for green tea towards the sugarless one but it doesn’t hurt to have this haha. It’s like my drug ! Hehe. Guess I will have to run extra to burn off those sugar ! Oh well.

Determination.


It Seems like the only day that I would be able to head down to the gym to workout is being limited to only Saturdays ! Argh ! Next week is tutorial week. Some may call it a holiday, while some may even go overseas in that period of one week.

 BUT for me, I guess I will be finishing up ALL my works and prepare for assessment ! It’s hard I know, and assignments are always coming in but no choice yeah ! Got to press on like how I usually do at the gym. To work out , you need determination, motivation and a never say die spirit!

 It all comes down to hardwork and one should never take lightly of how much alittle of hardwork can do! Haha. With hardwork and determination, you are bound to see changes.

As quoted from Anthony Robbins, “ Determination is the wake up call to the human will.”

Superb Salmon






It’s finally FRIDAY ! And I have decided to do some cooking and Salmon is one of my favorite food! Yes ! I bought a rather large portion of salmon and decided to cook it! I may not be a fussy eater but I am a rather fussy cook. When I cook, I like my things to be cooked perfectly. HAHA.

 Crispy skin on the outside, soft melting salmon meat in the inside. And, I have used mangoes for this time round to be added with my salmon to balance it out.  It just tastes great! When cooking fish, I am extremely careful as I don’t really like the fishy taste that the fish gives off but it’s high in nurtients, HIGH IN PROTEIN !!!!

 Also, I don’t like ginger despite it can help kill the fishy taste. So, I always have my own methods of removing the fishy taste making it awesome. I love cooking for my family and they are like my guinea pigs for my new dishes but i definitely hate washing the plates haha. My sister hates to eat fish no matter where is it from, but whenever she knows I’m cooking fish for example salmon, she would be more than glad to eat it. YEAH! Achievement I guess.

Terrific Treat

Udders Ice-Cream!



Hola ! It has been a relatively busy weekend for me, with moutains of assignments piling up for me to finish ! Stress is building up and it sure isn’t fun when you know you are going to get into trouble with your lecturers should you not finish your work! Haha.

I have been doing my homeworks and assignments over the weekend but I still didn’t forget about my ownself. Hence, last Sunday, I have decided to get out to have my dinner at Serangoon Gardens’ Chomp Chomp and went on to give myself an ice cool treat !

The ice-cream that I have ate is from Udders and it’s very good! The flavors are Green-tea-rific (Green) , Strawberry field ( Pink ) ,  D24 Durian ( Yellow )  and Kit Kiat Chocolate ( Brown ). It’s so good! Why are there two bowls of ice-cream you may ask? Because I have decided to give my little sister a TREAT. She has too, been working hard for her examinations and as her brother I have decided to reward her with alittle something. Okay, I do spoil her a little bit. I'm her older brother after all.

The ice-cream that we have had, may look simple with just one colour, but yet it is filled with flavor and bursting out the true colours of the ice-cream. I have always felt that colours are always an important asset to our daily life. Without colours, what would life be? In black and white ? That would be way too boring.

It is the simple colours like this, sometimes added with alittle black or white, that makes the world a much more livelier place to live in and allow us to see the TRUE colours of each object and being. Each colours always represent something. Green is often used to represent jealousy , Pink is usually used to represent tenderness , Yellow often to represent excitement and Brown is the colour that represents security.

Each and every colour has it’s own feelings and meanings to it, just like us, humans. Interesting isn’t it?

As quoted from Leonardo Da Vinci, “ For those colours which you wish to be beautiful, always first prepare a pure white background.”
