School has commenced and boy I must say that the 4 months holiday has indeed gotten too comfortable hence the lazy bones are here for me to conquer yet again. This is what holidays do to us every single time, isn't it? Getting all intimate with us and when we're all delicately comfortable, *poof* pushes us back to the arms of reality. 

Now that studies are back on track again, it simply means juggling between that, work and spending time with my love ones. Time? Never sufficient for all the things we wanna do, the people we wanna love, the dreams we wanna achieve. 

Well, pic of the day above features my Sat noon with Redbull & his campmates and of course, lotsa incessant orders of jap food. 

Here's a toast to the final year of my LLB. 
Do I know how it feels like to revise efficiently on the day of my exam or right before it? No I don't, because apparently, I've never been able to absorb anything right before the exam since my secondary school days. Never a person who burns midnight oil because I don't believe in my performance under the circumstances of self-created stress & burning midnight oil almost inevitably means that I haven't been consistent with my revision or I started to catch up too late. I do the opposites of those two.

I prefer to keep my head clear before the attempt to conquer the exam. Any dose of relaxation helps to better prepare me for the exam. Weird that I work this way. But sometimes, I wish my brain could absorb information on the day itself because that would mean I could be more prepared? I am prepared, but just a waste of time like if... if y'know what I mean. 
Is there a reason why time spares us no mercy? Especially in year 2012. It's like I just celebrated my 21st birthday in February and before it occurs to me, it's already January. One more month to my 22nd, to CNY.

End of one year is supposedly the reflection time. The only time I should ever look back in life is to flip through my memory book & count the blessings.

2 huge milestones in 2012. I'll never forget how this first phase has made me realized something of such paramount importance. Been clinging on to every possible strand of hope for more than a year that I could wipe off every obstacle to get into Manchester Uni LLB. I've secured a place. Elated I am, initially. But as the day of orientation drew near, the devastation in me has never eased. Money can't buy everything but for that instance of mine, it could buy what I've wished for; complete my studies in UK. I was literally being forced to come to terms with the fact that financial circumstance doesn't allow me to study in UK. Reality is harsh, cruel. Perhaps that's how I'll learn that sometimes I don't get to choose what I want to do, but that doesn't mean I've to give up my dreams, I just have to take a detour to achieve them.

This second milestone relates to my happiness, our happiness. In Nov, Redbull & I applied for the BTO flat. Our wish came true when we were notified of our queue number. One step closer to one of our many shared dreams.

||New year resolution: Be a better person||
