you are the calm before the storm

Hello World,

I turned the big two-three a couple of weeks back, and I'm really thankful for everything that has happened in the past year. I didn't feel any significant difference from two-two, but I learned alot throughout this entire period. I found out who I could be with, who I really like to be with, and most importantly, I realised I'm beginning to appreciate the people around me more so than ever. Which is a good thang, right? Of course.

Didn't celebrate my birthday like a shazaaaam because I'm cool like that. Hahaha, kiddin. I guess I need a little bit of getting used to if I ever do celebrate my birthday. The last birthday I ever had a celebration for, was when I was 10 years old - that young of an age where I knew nothing about the intricacies of the human brain and relationship. Other than that, I guess eating out with a few groups of people in my life was probably the best form of celebration in any kind :) 

I decided to cut some bangs on my birthday because every pretty girl seemed to be having bangs. So I figured, why not? But apparently the face matters, I look like a village girl. And after snipping them, I shared my bangs with Rinnah, who incidentally looks like a china woman. All's good now, we've returned to our Singaporean Identity.

 Alvin knows of my incessant love towards giraffes and dinosaurs, so he drew this onto a bag. SO LOVE please <3

Bangclub bought me a red ukulele which made it's grand debut in our Staycation x Funday at Sentosa! They surprised me with some really awesome Carrot Cake from Cedele because they reckoned that's the healthiest unhealthy cake they can find for me. They even thought of getting a footlong subway sandwich. Can I just reemphasise on how much I love this bunch of quirky friends I have? :')

Perhaps I should credit that epiphany of appreciating people, to my resolution for this year - I told myself that I needed to have proper time management, for the love of everything in my life. Because if I kept disappearing without accounting for it, people are gonna disappear from my life - people who matter! And I cannot let that happen.

Ever since last year, when George screamed on my FB, stating that I have really bad time management because our meet-ups always failed to actualise due to me cancelling out on him on the last minute, it got me thinking for quite abit. I'm quite an asshole at times, because I come up with the most ridiculously untruthful excuses just to get myself out of appointments that I don't wanna go for. I know, what a bitch, lynette, what a bitch.

So this year, maybe my desire to not be an ass has made me appreciate people more.

Thanks guys, you guys make my world go round :) I really wasn't expecting much because it was a Monday, but you guys are so amazing! Cannot love you all enough.

Lo and behold, Fun Day arrived, I was late because I decided to skip the front part by meeting Victoria at Vivocity for some breakfast love. Bangclub decided to book a room at Siloso Beach Resort, and we pretty much went downhill in an uphill manner.

Really don't know how can I ever live without them in school <3

I love trees, especially when my friends are attempting to throw me into the sea - I love trees even more.

Finally collected my race pack for Race The Dead - something that I look forward to, and yet have been quite troubled with for quite sometime. I'm not exactly the fast one you've seen around, and here I am, all clever and ignorant by signing up with one of the most fastest person in my life.

不自量力 - that's me. 

And we finally had Quiznos with my Broccoli Cream Cheese Soup which was amazeballs *sings.* I was dead tired after queuing for the race pack, and somebody was getting all angstypantsy because we queued like centipedes under the hot sun, so we decided to just succumb to my craving for Quiznos. :)

Quiznos is so love please. Even though they seem to have shrunk the amount of my Broccoli Cream Cheese Soup, it's okay, I'll still forgive them because they make really amazing subs. 

I can't remember what each of us had. But it's Quiznos!

Omg look at that cheese yo. *meltz* 

We both realised that we have been hanging out every Saturday because we are just too zo bo - which I agree. Nobody really knows how zo bo we are, and somehow I think we should be thankful that he lives in the west and I live in the east so the only common area to hang out after touch would be central/town. If not, I think every Sat would be like adventure day for us.

Then, the following Saturday was Jo's Wedding!!! :) I'll put up more pics in the next post because I think it deserves a post on it's own due to its overwhelming amount of love.

May this precious memories last a lifetime. :) xo
