It’s amazing how one cupboard can store up so many precious memories;
Memories you’d almost forgotten about, ah, those beautiful memories.

Summer cleaning has arrived and yours truly has been hard at work!
Well, kind of. I keep stumbling onto things I almost forgot about thus: distraction.

For instance, my knitting needles and halfway knitted scarf.
Gosh, I remember purchasing my first set of needles in 2009.
At first, it took me ages to work through a row yet gradually,
It became second nature to me as I worked through row after row, effortlessly.
Picked up my needles again after almost a year and for a moment,
I forgot how to continue on.
Thankfully, the memory is back and I’m definitely finishing up with my scarf!

Then there’s all the notes and cards gathered from friends these past months;
I almost forgot some of them even existed.
It’s time to reconnect with my long lost friends.
Sometimes I find it difficult to speak face to face,
But it’s amazing how writing letters allows you to easily bond regardless.

There’s just too many things to jot but nevertheless,
I feel so happy, so contented.

the sky is especially dark tonight.
one would almost say that it seems cruel and cold.
yet, the coloured lights scattered around the city
changes ones perspective altogether.

i havent had the chance to stand in my balcony at all.
but tonight, i stuck my head out to live the moment.
to inhale the freshness of the cool air,
to smell the crisp night fragrance with a tinge of rain,
to witness the moment as it is,
if only life could forever be preserved as it is now.

Someday, 
I’ll like to travel to the country side.
To carry a backpack on my shoulders,
To trudge up the green hills,
To inhale the beauty of God’s creations,
And to finally reach to the top and be rewarded with:
The comfort of lying underneath a tree to relax and unwind,
The honour of having a panoramic view of nature’s beauty,
The excitement of screaming my lungs out:
I am here, I’ve done it, I’ve endured and now I’m being rewarded.

these few weeks have been incredibly challenging.
rather than being tried for my level of knowledge,
i feel as if i’m being tried for my degree of determination.
it’s so physically and mentally draining,
three more weeks - will i be able to last? 

I miss looking at a flock of birds fly side by side with one another.
Growing up, I remember almost every morning when I was on my back swimming backstroke, I’d see a flock of em fly by with such unison. It’s amazing how they can establish this mutual agreement of travelling together, side by side.

Anyway, 21 more days.
Hope I’ll be ready <3

and the routined days are back.
had a law lecture and tutorial today.
surprisingly, i actually felt happy to be back into the academic life.
i always feel that if i rest too much, my brains would grow rusty,
and rusty would translate to: becoming dumb.

changes have been implemented,
and im actually working better with it.
(: hmm.

and the final exam timetable is out!
8th Taxation Law
10th Corporate Law
16th Intermediate Financial Accounting
24th Cost Management

Just as predicted and hoped for :)
Wanted to get rid of the two law papers on the first week of exams!
Have one paper on the second week, and another on the third/last week.
And here it is, exactly as predicted and hoped for!

Now I’m just racing against time.
Slapping myself for holidaying away too much for the past two weeks.
Oh holidays you have been so amazing and now it’s time to say goodbye.
Time to go on full force with my studies.

Here I come!
NERD ANGELA (;

nothing like a lazy Sunday.
to curl up by the window,
enjoy the sunshine and just relax.

cant believe the holidays are ending.
it is too depressing.
guess it’s time to get my brain exercising!

LOVE <3
