Less than 2 weeks

Exam is coming really soon! in 4 days! I don't know why but i am feeling really chill. Like seriously chill. Just came back from gym and dinner and waiting to shower. Maybe because i started early and not rushing to finish a module before its too late! I am left with doing exercises and revise and that is it. My flatmate is feeling really stress. She has been puking today and her tummy not feeling well. She looks pale. I can barely see her anyways as she has been in her room for the whole day. Like whole day! If i were her, I will go crazy! Seriously crazy because i cannot stay in a quiet room for too long. I will feel super depressed. I am feeling pretty hyper these few days. I was jumping, twirling and doing pirouettes in a grocery store while waiting for my friend to choose her snacks..hahah. We laughed ALOT! Joan and I can really click. haha. While Cammi is like our mommy. ehehe.. and just now, I think because of the caffeine, I felt so giddy! I wanted to run around so badly an...

Midnight Post

I have been trying to sleep since 1.30am and it is now 3.30am. I couldn't sleep.. Must have been the mocha i drank just now. I didn't know my body will react to caffeine cause it usually doesn't. I usually can sleep after drinking mocha at night but today don't know why, somehow i just couldn't. Exams are coming so soon. Been preparing and still preparing until the day of the papers. 6 papers to take. OMG. But life, gotta suck it up and continue the journey. I miss home so much. Will be going back in less than 3 weeks! I know i am going to miss this place so much. Seriously. I am glad that I decided to exchange here and experienced great memories. Met so many new friends from different countries. All great people. I am going to miss everything here. Surprisingly, yes. But i am feeling homesick now and would like to go back to my boyfriend's arms and cuddle. Too long since we've hugged and cuddled >< . I've never felt separated from him because we...

Last month in China

This marks the end of the lecture week. Very fast, yes. I never thought that i would feel reluctant to leave this place. I remember words in my head before the airplane lands Shanghai. "Would i fit in? Will i find new friends here? Who are my roommates? Am i going to reach my goals?" and so many more questions.  Turns out, things were working really well. Been to beautiful places, ate foods i have never eaten before, became a shopaholic, and became stronger, both physically and mentally. I have grown up. I feel that i am more independent now and more disciplined compared to back home. I have studied consistently and that is why i am feeling less stressed now. Hmm...maybe..hahah I really don't feel like leaving this place but I'm going to the UK next semester. It is a rare opportunity.. Can't just put that down. I want to travel around UK. I can still come back here for internship if that is possible but all in all, yes i feel reluctant to leave but there...

Late Night Thoughts

Hey there! It's 2 am and I am still awake. Maybe because of the green tea i drank just now. Not too sure if I really cannot sleep because of tea.. haha. Well, anyways, I finished watching the final episode of Gossip Girl (I skipped from Season 2 5th episode straight to Season 6 last episode) I just can't wait you know-ain't so patient..hee. Anyways, after finished watching this, I feel that no matter how many times you broke up with the same guy, the first instinct is the answer to your future. When deep down inside tells you that he's the one, he is the one. No matter how far you guys go away from each other, in the end, you will be together. Not everyone will have the privilege to spend their lives with the person that they love so much. So, value and appreciated the person you love now. Not tomorrow, but today, now. Suddenly becoming a love expert, not. But that's just what i feel. Some things shown in series and movies are over exaggerated but most are based on ...

December

I have a lot in my mind lately. Have been reading a few topics in the Life Lesson by Robin Sharma and i don't know why but that particular few topics hit me hard cause it fits to what i am currently facing and plan to do but i don't know how to start. The topics gave me hints like how to meet my December goals. It has been awhile since I've read his book as i was distracted by unnecessary things such as online shopping and so on. I really wasted my time last week. So yesterday i decided to read his book again and i really learned something and it was at the right timing. From there i realised that we cannot force things to happen. Timing, timing, timing. It is really fascinating and surprising as well. I learned that we can be what and who we want. We just need to imitate. We just need to imitate the person's lifestyle and automatically, we will be who we want. I found an easier way, we need just need to act as if we are in a movie. Well, that is just my point of view...

End of November

It is the end of November already. Time flies so fast when you are enjoying yourself. That is very true. I have one month left here and I don't feel like leaving. Seriously! I admit that ever since I've exchanged here, I have been buying so much. I have so many jackets now. Like more than 10. I never had so many clothes ever since high school because back then, i wasn't really interested in shopping. I would rather spend my time reading in the bookstore than shopping with my mom. I don't know why.. I would shop, sometimes, based on my mood. The thing is i bought so many jackets which i am not sure if i would wear them in Malaysia but some, yes. I definitely will. Like for the winter jackets, of course not. I feel like a new person now. Discovering the other side of me. I would say this new title of mine is due to peer pressure but also influenced by the low prices here. I just couldn't stop myself from buying. Oh noes. But i have to admit, once i am out of this pl...

Shopping!

When I first came to China, every price I see, I will automatically divide by 2. Then i will be like, OMG so cheap! Well, it is true, everything seems to be cheaper here except Shanghai of course. But that was before i found Taobao. Taobao is an online shopping website that sells literally EVERYTHING. Nothing you cannot find there. You can seriously find everything in there including vegetables and meat. Yes, veggies and meat.. So, i began my journey being a Taobao addict. It is so addictive that you will visit it as often as you visit Instagram and Twitter. Seriously. You will just scroll and look at everything they offer and then automatically something will pop up in your brain that you need something that you don't actually need, then you will start searching for it and soon, money will fly away from your purse. The thing is, Taobao make it so damn convenient for the buyers. Within 2-3 days, you will receive your purchases already. Arrive directly at your doorstep. You don'...
