looking ahead.

i've been thinking quite a lot for the past few days. i've been thinking about my future; you know, what i want to do and where i wish to go. sometimes i feel so jealous of the seniors at our school! they're done with everything including CAS and EE, and in just a few months time they will be graduating, and then stepping into a whole new dimension - heading to Uni and meeting new people. i wish i was at that stage - knowing I've been accepted into a college that actually wants me, looking foward to living alone and being independant and making new friends! but i have a feeling that when i do get to this stage, i would want time to turn back. right now i'm so eager to graduate, but i still have a long way to go. my to-do list just goes on forever; it feels like there's just so much to do and not enough time to do it. time is passing by too quickly; in a blink of an eye it'll be the end of my junior year; by the end of this year i would be done with college apps; and by February of next year, i will be turning 18.

maybe i should be appreciating my final years in high school instead of contemplating about the future. i don't really know.

OH NO. WHAT. NO. THIS IS ALL MY PARENTS' FAULT. THEY ARE THE ONES WHO ARE SO ASIAN. NOT ME T.T

CC experience

lol.
i'm at SKY CC now - the place where EVERY, and i mean EVERY MKIS student comes.
i came only because i was following bff Zennie since he wanted to play for a while and then go for lunch. But when i came, in front of each and every computer sat an MKIS gamer. When they saw me, all of them had the same unanimous expression: "KY?!?!?! WHOAA. KY A GAMER?!!? NO WAY!"

T.T

Allan took a photo of me even. (with Counter Strike open on my screen- not that i was playing or anything).

hahaha.

And now i hear Tim behind me screaming "FUCK" incessantly.


Damn. I should come here more often. Get exposed to what guys REALLY do when they have nothing else to do in their lives.

new re-do.

ho ho ho.

i got a new hair cut today. this morning i woke up and i felt like my hair was seriously a burden. for the past few months i felt like my hair just kept growing puffier and puffier. seriously. and it sucks that that's because my hair is curly in nature. so if i don't re-bond it, i'd look like a lion. no, i'm not kidding. it's been more than a year since i last re-bonded my hair; so for the past few months it grew longer and more puffy, so puffy that the only thing i could do to my hair was tie it up in a pony tail when i go to school. but that doesn't turn out nice either, since after tying it, all the short, curly new-born hair at the tip of my forehead would spring out, making my hair totally haywire. so anyway today i went to the salon and asked for a new re-do. the barbarer looked through my hair, and in the end said "there's only one solution for this puffiness. re-bond."

-_-"

originally, i didn't want to re-bond my hair again since i've done it more than ten times in the past few years already (therefore explaining why i have so many split-ends). so when the barbarer told me the only solution was to re-bond it again, i was like.. .. T.T.
so then i suggested cutting it shorter (a little above shoulder length), and then re-bonding it.

and that was indeed what happened.

so now i look at myself in the mirror and i think "yuck". seriously.
this short-cut hair makes my face look even rounder. and i look like such a school girl nerd.
wtf T.T

something to procrastinate.

i recently discovered five things.


1. I have a pimple outbreak (my face is SO oily for some goddamn reason)
2. WRIGLEY's Eclipse mints keep my attention span high. (something i desperately need nowadays; IB's pushing me down the drain.)
3. My new favorite song is You Found Me by The Fray. (dedicated to me by bff Zennie)
4. I gained 1 kg today. (wtf. i just started Varsity Badminton season with practices three times a week and i don't usually eat at school and i gain 1kg. Hokum.?!)
5. I must now attend to my pile of hw.
