Hey there! I just changed my blogskin :) It's a little user-unfriendly because you can't navigate my past posts by headings or hashtags. So i'm gonna update the codings, stay tuned! (The font's kinda hard to read too..other than these 3 peeves, i'm quite satisfied) Follow me on the links below! :) 29/4/2015.
Started this blog during the last few weeks of SEM1(AY2014/15) cos' i regained interest in blogging. I blog about anything - news, social issues, music - but mostly about my university life :) Hope my posts will help you to make better life (and module) choices! Currently a Sociology Major. Still fresh. xD
Ytd we had 16 kids and 9 volunteers. Kinda shorthanded, i taught like 4 kids? Switching around with my friend lul. I learnt that one of them had 10 sibllings..10 ppl squeezing in a rental flat!? ): She was also kinda sick that day, and she wasn't in the mood to do math. Another girl who sat with us on the same table was more energetic (despite not eating bf & lunch!? so i got bread for her) - but one thing that worries me is negative social comparision, because that girl will talk about her grades, A2, B3 blah blah and i got A1 even though i don't like lit so i think the girls sitting opp her might be affected. :/ They were both taught by V but she has open house duty so :/ But that girl shared her bg story with V last week, so maybe she was open enough ba, and not really affected by the other girl, idk.
haha then i have this crazy cartwheel skipping team on the inside, all so active but i'm glad the volunteers has a good time teaching them too :)
I was kinda sian that i didnt attend tues's session cos of my research. XE's kid cried cos the mum scolded him T_T P1 only...the mum was there for the whole session lul
But we had a good turnout on tues haha
This post is kinda here and there cos imma tired :( Burning out quite abit. Hopefully projects will get settled soon and cant wait for my next summer break!!! :)

“To put away aimlessness and weakness, and to begin to think with purpose, is to enter the ranks of those strong ones who only recognize failure as one of the pathways to attainment; who make all conditions serve them, and who think strongly, attempt fearlessly, and accomplish masterfully.”
- James Allen Quotes
Sometimes I wonder how people see me and what they think of me. It scares me a bit, honestly. I am sure though, that what they think of me,
what they think my life is, is a complete misperception. I have always tried to show myself as a carefree person, as someone who wont get bothered
because of public judgements. I am sure my friend and family think there is nothing going wrong in my life, that I do not worry enough, that
I am always happy. And I am sure they probably somewhat hate me for it because, lets admit it, there is nothing worse than seeing someone
who is life seems so perfect while yours is a complete mess. Truth is, I have become an expert at pretending. I think we are all experts
or at least we are getting there.
