I cannot just blame others for my emotions. Insisting that the other party is wrong and insisting that he be punished that is wrong is not right. I need to learn not to blame others for my own emotions. I need to learn how to grow.

today is such a great day like i really never feel so genuinely happy in a long time
maybe its cause my worries are settled like after so long and i had a totally free day today
my feelings for boyfriend is stronger than ever
and i finally got my hall approval
I'm still in my holidays and the world feels like a peaceful day

i woke up and fell back asleep on the sofa after washing up.
once i woke up my parents asked me if i wanted to go eat at chinese dim sum restaurant at 1.30pm. i really ate my fill there. $50 for 3 people with all sorts of autenthic chinese food including the awesome pau cai <3 about="" aeroplane="" and="" are="" awesome="" cool="" forces="" i="" land="" mind-blowing.="" ndp="" p="" seriously="" super="" the="" them="" told="" watched.="">after i ate so full me and my mum walked around into pep per plus a clothing shop and i saw that they were selling tights for $8. the tights felt so comfortable and stretchable i was likee omg i have to get it. my mum sponsored me the $8 which might seem very little but it means a lot to me. $8 is essentially a good lunch. so happy i got a free non transparent soft tights.
then i walked around and my mum went to buy for my dad some shirts
i went into fa ce shop to randomly walked around and i stopped at the nail polish area for fun.
saw this super cute pink heart shape nail polish and i showed my mum. she was like omg so nice and she wanted to buy plus one more another one too. i really couldn't believe it at all cause i had zero intention of making her buy. i really genuinely thought it was rather cute. this might seem small to others but i rarely get free things without paying and each nail polish bottle was $4.90. it felt damn ex to me LOL but my mum loved it. she even went like. omg lets buy another one la. so we bought a yellow one and i really like both. too unique.
on our way out of the mall i was telling my family i wanted to dye my hair blue for the fun of it. like since its holidays and I'm no longer in like a school school. plus i just felt like it. like i wanna be blue and at peace or look strong kinda.
we went to clementi to get some durian for the family but my mum walked into a hair shop to buy cheap but good shampoo
so i was just randomly walking in and i asked the lady if there was blue hair dye
and there was omg
priced at $29.90 per bottle but there was one for one. can't believe it. i really bought blue on that day aka today itself and my mum sponsored it once again. i think i easily saved $30 today LOL
my sis bought pink as her 1 for 1 and I'm so excited to do it.
might be dyeing it tomorrow hehe.
even tho there weren't nice looking durian and we didn't buy in the end. i had such a great time. going back home settling mods. deciding planning.
we went to lower pierce reserv and in the middle of both upper and lower. we all saw the breathtaking view i really can't believe it like it was too mind-blowing pretty and it was all around us. the sun was setting slowly and the breeze was so cool. i really dk felt the inner peace so much. i told myself 'i will rise and stay strong like the sun in the face of adversity' like dark clouds heh
after that we ate damn delicious shabu shabu which cost $160 dollars LOL damn nice
then me and my dad went to visit my alma uncle cousins. it was so fun talking about ahma. like the hugs me the moment she sees me and she's shorter than me so i really bend down. talked quite a bit to aha. and a bit to yehjia. ate magnum and omg it was good. mint version
stayed from 10-11.30 and it was a really good stay like relaxed and everything. back here now gonna remember the day

love. present me.
hi future me <3 p="">

I feel very strangled by my family 
They simply keep nagging over like every single thing 
And my mum doesn't allow me to stay hall cause it's single room and not double room. Like can't understand cause so many people already stay in it 

Anyway yesterday and the day before that was a really fun day!! 
Like super fun 
Yesterday we had BBQ at this senior house called ziyang 
It was super fun cause I haven't seen the og in so long!!!! And this time I didn't have any responsibilities with me at all so I simply jump from clique to clique and played. Like I think I was really in my own element like in school. I enjoy being in big groups and just talking to everybody. 
So like when I reached it was a little boring so I just entertained myself by talking to Eugene about dance. Then boonz wanted to join in the conver so I'm like okay but it was a bit hard hahahaha 
After that I talked to boonz for a while like about his blog and everything. It so interesting to hear people's stories. Like he wants to make his blog famous. 
Then we moved on to preparing the sotong together like putting the sambal sauce and everything and talking. I think I bitched about this person a little too much LOL like too much cause I usually don't bitch but whatever. Things really happened. 
After we were done and done playing the music hahaha
We played dai di with the freshies! It was super fun like at moments we were like omg hahaha and asshole revolution 
And my position still stayed the same LOL 
Then after that I was basically running around talking to many people like my cousin 

The day before that had Ogl meeting and watch amazing formations of ndp 
Later in going to visit them during pre camp!!!

what to do when you're insecure with yourself?

this is what I'm struggling with now and i find it hard especially after a rocky year with studies and unstable emotions.
what do you do or what do people do?

first thing is definitely to
1. Gain control of your life
make decisions for yourself and stop waiting for other people to settle things for you. one needs gain or get used to taking initiative in your life or for things that you're a part of. when you start contributing and making however minute positive changes, you will feel good about yourself and eventually gain the confidence to take greater steps towards more significant changes. collective action problem is definitely tempting and i think everyone has been a free rider before at times. but in order to gain confidence with yourself you need to believe in your actions and to believe in what you do is to even take baby steps to do something in the first place. somewhere or a platform to start off will be suitable. another suggestion is to have certain resolutions to do weekly or by a certain dateline for your personal achievement. for situations that you feel like something can be done, step up and give input and make changes. don't be a floater and just wait for others to do things for you. even everyday situations like bumping into people, we can choose not to be that awkward person who just goes like oh? hi? ya? yes? we can initiate a hug or questions first. even in group conversations too.
find out where are you lacking in and do things to improve it.
for me personally its my lack of activities and stepping up especially in school. which is why when the term starts i plan to join other class than dance for my portfolio. i will also be looking out for exchanges or internships. for now i intend to finish reading a certain book to gain a better perspective in my major. these are things i set out to do and i hope or i will try to achieve it. even tho it might not always be successful or what you dream of, as long as you tried you know you are in control of yourself and you are actively improving yourself. this will in turn give you a sense of security.

2. love yourself
embrace parts of you that you love and parts of you which you don't. change or improve on the things you don't like about yourself but essentially remember that you are who you are and you're a special and unique individual capable of changing the lives of people around you.
for me personally, i have loved myself very much for many years. but this year i really lost my confidence as i feel myself losing control of my life and gaining bad grades having little friends.
this is when you need to - learn to love yourself again. its so important especially with changes in your life, changes that are hard to accept or hard to get used to. changes that will make you feel discouraged and possibly love your life a bit less.
go down to the basics and ask yourself who you are and who you want to be

3. answer your personal doubts and worries
this is extremely hard and i feel myself struggling so much with this. you can try to talk it out to friends or family. but ultimately the choice is yours. you choose how you want to react to certain things. you choose if you want to fear it, live with it, accept it, or reject the problem. do not run from it cause it will only make you feel less secure of yourself and your future. if you really don't know, give yourself a dateline or a hall mark to make certain decisions. the beauty of life is the endless number of possibilities and different paths you decide which you want to take.


no matter what, i wish whoever is reading all the best in their lives :)
its definitely hard to live, but we all have to try for ourselves.

Today was great day 
I met Joshua in the morning and we played in the bus all the way to Vivo. Played get rich in the bus whereby I carried him to win a round and he carried me the next round. 
We played fighting game. Tickling. Talking about everything like the reflection by keppel which he talked too fast and sounded like blubblubblub 
Tickled and shoot each other 
Reached Lynn house and baked made the marshmallow thing together with Joshua. Helped Lynn a little with guidance but mildly. She baked for tikiat a peanut butter cake which turned out idk what hehe 
I played with Lynn baby cousin Xavier raymus and Corrine it was quite fun and they talked to me. And her doggies hehe 
After that I met Wilson aka my cousin LOL for dinner and sushi tei for my fantastic unagi super yummy 
Then we went to daily scoop and sat outside the mrt there to talk. He went for puff puff then we went coffee bean till we talked to 11.20pm omg from like 8pm siao. 
Me and him talked so much about the religion like history. Palestain thing and smoking and relationships. It was super fun and interesting . Sometimes I wonder if I'm a good listener or he's a good talker but he never stops talking or leading the conversation. But I guess I learn to really be more confident of myself. After S24 and Ogl for arts camp.
Don't be afraid or shy about who you are or what are your norms compared to others. Not drinking/smoking/coffee does not make you a loser. Most of the time you are a winner cause you're not dependent on these substances or require large amounts of it. 
I learnt to find back my lost determination and prepare myself to go all out when I need to with confidence. My decisions might not always be wrong or right because there really isn't wrong or right. But I can persuade people to at least respect my choices based on my reasons or thinking. Even if they disagree. 
I learnt how to find confidence and strength from within to go all out to my ability. And I am ready to study really hard next semester. Just like I'm dancing my ass off now. 
Today my stomach felt painful 
And I really wasn't sure if it was gastric, muscle ache core gas attack flu 

But I had such a fun day hehe 
Tomorrow I'm meeting Joshua in morning and Jinggy at evening and dance at night 
Looking forward too :)

My entire week 
Monday was spent with T4 for lunch in the afternoon then Yunhsiu at evening night and open class at night
Tuesday spent with Vernice at her house eating yogurt then dance at night 
Wednesday spent alone at home watching running man and having the time of my life + dance at night 
Thursday yesterday spent meeting radiance and HTHT for 4 straight magical hours idk how we did it at all hehe. Just talking about everything and dance at night 
Friday today is spent meeting Lynn at 3.30 in nus and then going for dance at night

Yesterday the meet up with radiance was so awesome. It's like we caught up so much and showed each other all the videos we wanted to ever. Talked about like her friends at camp and in school all the things and we really talked in depth about our lives. From religion to relationship to annoying people in the og to LBGT hehe. I loved hearing her stories in school like about the people. She could probably talk so much about them because obviously I don't know them hahaha. So different from sec sch and jc it's a different kind of friendship. And she told me what she thought of certain things too! What's best is we plan to watch high school musical hehe the next time we meet!!! So I'm excited 

Dance in general has been so fun but perhaps just yesterday it really sucks. I need to start sleeping earlier idk why I have problems sleeping. I guess it's past my bedtime hour when I start to feel like I should sleep which is 3-4. I'll need to start sleeping at 1-2 hehe thing to do tonight!!!!

What do I write about? I honestly have no idea. 

Dance then 😊 
Yesterday we learnt how to breathe while dancing. It sounds lame but many people don't know how to breathe. Most of the time people hold their breath while they dance because you're so caught up with firing strong steps for the audience. But if I learn how to breathe I think that it will really help me with my dance. To pace my dance better or to look stronger at certain steps will definitely be a great asset to have. 

Second thing, the big difference between a secondary school dance standard and a open category dance standard. It's huge. Kiko was explaining to me how the vibe of a seasoned dancer is different from the vibe of new dancers. Somehow the confidence and the ability to take ownership of the steps - to control the strength fired properly, both can be shown and can be felt. This was the trait that I was most impressed with during dance works. I saw other groups being really confident and dancing their heart out. It makes me really want to join along. Their neatness didn't matter at all cause I really stopped watching out for mistakes, I was simply trying to take in their strong all encompassing vibe. 

Next would be my usage of legs. I think it's quite a pity that my legs are really strong but I don't use it enough. One can use the strength from legs for your body and it's really two times more strength for your  body. Use legs to push your body up faster and stronger or to go down lower. Don't have lazy or murky steps especially regarding the legs because I have been picked out about it before. Legs should be picked up and should be as clear as the hands. 

Oh I learnt how to sing the song in the head alr and dance it exactly on beat. Because it's hard to listen to music and follow after that. It has to be in real time. Like I can hear the music in my mind at the exact same time as the music playing outside. Then I can dance exactly to the right music at exactly the right timing. Need to remember tho!!

Remembering choreo is something I'm getting better at but still a bit lacking. I will definitely try again tonight :)

After Alex teo danz people open class on Monday 

It's so unexplainable the joy that dance brings me now. It feels like this best friend that's with me even when I'm alone. I can dance and smile freely and feel so much happiness even when I'm alone. I enjoy groove. It's tough but I feel like it embodies the true form of dance. Freedom of movement towards the music. Today the dance prac made me so happy cause there were little lines or sharp accent, just groove on its own. The dance instructor was damn damn cute like when he smiled and this is quite bad of me to say this since I have a boyfriend hahahahhahaha. Idk how to say I feel like strangers can connect through their love of this activity dance. It feels like part of my soul and my life. I really can't do a week without dancing. 
Choreographed group dancing feels so suffocating at times. It makes me love open classes cause you really don't have to care about anyone else but you and your love for dance. 
Ballet and jazz is so rigid at times. Especially for the lines and exact angle. Groove just feels so right even tho it's damn different. 
I really feel like I'm in love with this best friend I've never met. And this best friend will definitely be a lifelong friend cause I don't think I can do without it, at least for now. It is too big part of my life and it gives me too much happiness to forget about it. I really can't think of anything else I rather do but dance and maybe study occasionally. 
I really love today and I really enjoy dancing. 
Met up with a few T4 friends this afternoon too! Then met Yunhsiu for a while for dinner at standing sushi bar and some bonding. He told me about army and what they do when they train. It sounds boring but somehow the way he said it fascinated me cause I could really imagine his story in real life. Now I'm alone in the bus feeling like I'm on top of the world as the most popular person when in fact I'm not. Somehow I feel so rich even tho my wallet is empty hahhaa 
This is something I won't forget. 

Anne Hathaway says take a step back and truly love yourself for who you are. One day you can feel this sense of love and compassion for people and things around you.
I will breathe and love my life definitely 😊
