OH MY GOODNESS!

It's been a peaceful day, spending time with family and all. Cleared out the broken shoe rack and installed the new cabinet.

i finished my secret project at 10.30pm (including washing up) with a little help from the brother (who was really there for fun and not to help) but whatever, the end result turned out fantastico! :D :D

even my mum agrees and even exclaimed that i'm starting to be better than her HEE :D

haha you guys will find out what the secret project is soon! (: no pictures of the process though, i was too busy wrestling with the stuff, being my first attempt. but end product pictures will be up as soon as i can release them! (:

went swimming this morning at 7.30am. if you're wondering how i could get my butt up, simple - my dad. HAHA nothing beats "andrea if you don't get to the bathroom now i will not drive you to the club and you will have to take the bus yourself". not that i'm spoilt and refuse to take public transport, but it helps when you have (any) pressure forcing you to wake up. if my dad had just gave up and left me on the bed i probably wouldn't have gotten up till 12pm -.-

but the swim was good, seeing i haven't done so in at least 3 months = SUPER LONG TIME! wanted to gym before swimming but it wasn't open yet, so i swam 30 laps, which is the most i've done since i got the gold award at least 5 years ago! needless to say, by the 20th lap i was almost crawling ):

now that the EYAs are over, i need to hit the pool once a week with my family again. sheesh, i'm so white it's not funny ):

this will be my final post till the the start of the September Holidays.

Leaving for Malaysia the day after tomorrow for the SS Options fieldtrip, hoping to get some R&R there as well, after the mad flurry of papers.

a summary of the past two weeks:

1. Interesting Event 1: BIRTHDAY
Presents: with the exception of my immediate family, 0 presents from friends but a few "you'll get it two weeks later", (HAHA!) 1 cake from batch 15, hence my declaration of undying love for them HERE, which is still true without the cake.

Wishes: from unexpected people, and expected people (who made me extremely delighted nevertheless).

not unexpected, given how everyone's buried under piles and piles of revision and notes and stress, but possibly my worst birthday ever with me falling sick+stress+EYAs+disgusting medicine down my throat

2. Interesting Event 2: Speech Day
Felt well enough to attend speech day. got to eat my cake (:D) and (to my surprise) even received a plague with the character award! made up slightly for my dismal birthday.

3. Interesting Event 3: Chewy Juniors
Mum bought Chewy Juniors home which made me so much happier. Went down the next day to get more, and one person has had the very special privilege of tasting this yummything (only because that person was one year older) which pwns donut factory hands down (it tastes better, is cheaper and don't need to queue for 2 hrs!). plus it's located in an "ulu-er" part of central district so not many people know about it (yet) -- HOORAY!

4. Interesting Event 4: Mild Panic Attack
...after writing down all i had to cover for chem.

"Panic attacks are sudden, discrete periods of intense anxiety, fear and discomfort that are associated with a variety of somatic and cognitive symptoms^[1]. The onset of these episodes is typically abrupt, and may have no obvious trigger. Although these episodes may appear random, they are considered to be a subset of an evolutionary response commonly referred to as fight or flight that occur out of context, flooding the body with hormones (particularly adrenalin) that aid in defending itself from harm" - Wikipedia

5. Interesting Event 5
On Sunday, i decided i deserved a short break and chatted with a few special people (who happened to be online also lah) and it immediately made me feel much happier and much calmer, thank you (:
