right where it started / 2016

February 2016

January till February was the IHG period. It is the most exciting part of Semester 2 because that's when competitions for the various sports occur every other day. I remember very fondly of this, because the atmosphere was really sizzling within hall and at the venues. Very lucky to move in to hall right where all the action just began and very lucky that even though I don't know a lot of people, I have Shar, the Sports Director (!!!) as my neighbour. Thanks to her I get to watch more games than I could have without her.


IHG Closing Ceremony. The road relays were so nerve wracking because we are just so close to being the Hall Champion, depending on the placings of both the guys and girls. It's been such a long time since I supported sports matches, in this case I was screaming for runners who I don't even know (lol), but I still gave my all anyway. Oh and nothing can beat that Handball Finals (guys) goal that caused there to be at least 1 overtime. I think there were 2 overtimes in total. How sick is that! That atmosphere is really one of my favorite. We were all so happy that we just screamed and shouted and laughed continuously. I got so excited I actually jumped up from the floor from where I was sitting lololol. (omg sound so lame sia me)


Even though we lost just by only a few points, (I was actually beside our Hall President when he was counting the scores), I feel really happy to be a part of all these. This sports scene and competitions and sense of unity... made me feel like home and reminded me of my Jurong basketball days. What a wonderful way to start my semester!


hehe sharky <3 very thankful that we get to be friends and we broke the ice pretty easily thanks to SL!


Some random day where I went to the back to fix my ice cream craving. And maybe to lighten up my bad day. (usually too lazy to go get ice cream unless I really need it)



10S26's Valentines' Day Year XLB Affair <3


Chinese New Year, and the cutest child ever. He's SUCH a happy kid and it makes me happy



Look at my brother and cousins photobombing my photo



HIIT. Never underestimate 20 minutes. I almost died. 'Cause too intense since the last intense session.



Valentine's Day roses from my neighbies <3


Komal from Ottawa, Canada. Today marks the last day we will see each other :( Can't quite believe it when I knew it yesterday after my paper. It was so sudden I didn't have the time to really let it sink. AH I hate that this will likely become more common in the future. Anyway, really thankful for all the things we've taught each other. 



Block head! I don't think I'll ever get to know the block head if not for the fact that we are in the same course. Really little things like this. Serendipity.



When Nat and Pris both came :)


Eusoff Bash | Komal & Hein from Korea



Some snaps from my usual walk back to hall from Biz



Get-together when Lucinda came back to SG <3



"Beautiful things come out of horrible situations. I know for a fact. Out of sadness you get a new found wisdom on how the world can look with a haze of gray clouds, how people can be senseless, how you can see the whole universe in a whole new way. And that may be hard to handle, hard to cope, hard to accept, but it is so damn beautiful if you really take the chance to realise. Out of anger, you can feel your heart beat race, with every beat it is shaking your whole being and not only the heavy steps you take. It is when you, your whole self and some power is telling you that you are alive. And that is amazing in every angle. Out of anything there is something in there that makes it incredible. Something that makes it shine. Whatever you feel is potent and it is such a blessing to be able to feel what you feel. You just have to think about it."
