look for the girl with the broken smile

currently listening to she will be loved by maroon 5, hence the post title. shall put song lyrics as my titles from now on ~

hmm for this week's updates (other than the usual going-to-school boring stuff):
1. i went for dance blast! open class with rolynn on wednesday and it was super awesome it feels so good to dance again. i really like hiphop although i don't dance well. patrick loo, the resident choreographer, told us that half of us prolly won't get in as there are many people auditioning but limited vacancies (demand >>> supply yup applying econs to daily life LOL). :(
2. i received a message that i got selected for uni-y isp (international service programme) trip to Vietnam this coming december holidays!!! mega happy. \^_^/ i went down for the interview last wednesday and they asked a lot of situational questions which i sucked at so i wasn't sure if i made the cut. anyway, there will be a briefing next tuesday but sadly i won't be able to go as i've tutorial during that period. :( o well but there will be weekly meetings (which we've not decided on the day - just not tues or wed please) so all's fine. :-)
3. rolynn and i happened to pass by central forum on 28th and there was a library books sale. i managed to get 3 books for $5 yay wanted to get more but i controlled cuz i just spent $10 on 2 books earlier this week. there were a lot of useful textbooks such as on financial accounting, marketing, statistics etc at the sale which i kinda regretted not buying but since i've not decided on which biz module to take... it's okay there is always next year. :> i shall list down the books i bought cuz im happy with my purchases HAHA.

beginning the next chapter of my life

hello everyone,

i've decided to start blogging again. :-) i want to continue using this url and in order to give a 'fresh & new' look, all posts before 2014 have been hidden.

previously, i faced a dilemma between nus fass & ntu/smu biz but ultimately, i chose nus fass, intending to major in economics. i then applied for hall (unsuccessful :( ) and korean lpp (accepted!). i also had the opportunities to participate in 2 camps - uni-y & arts o'week, both of which i had tons of fun, made new friends and never regretted joining.

so 2 weeks ago on 11th, university officially started. totally not used to waking up early and travelling 1.5h to school for lectures but i survived ahaha and im really glad to have nh/aj/camp friends to attend classes/spend breaks/hang out with. :')
then there was a student life fair on 14th and 15th where cca booths were set up and i indicated interest for quite a lot of ccas (lol fickle-minded me) but i narrowed down to a few. dance blast!/dance synergy, odac, uni-y, skating club. however, dance blast! is extremely difficult to get into so im 80% prepared to fail the auditions sigh... but will still try my best though.
arts bash was held on 23rd at zouk. went down to support ying who won miss xanna reis (whoohoo congrats dear!!!) and club with A2 friends. great night (except for the part where some girl stepped on my foot with her heels... freaking asdfghjkl painful there is a blood clot + bruise now.) and i think i have a high alcohol tolerance level *proud* HAHA.

ok tutorials start this week and midterms are coming up. i need to get my head into the game.
