an incident which happen this late afternoon still triggers in my mind and i still kinda freak out when i recall it..haha i noe it may sound stupid to most people but i almost burst out in tears while i was running around the neighbourhood.
before i went out running, my mum tried to stop me, saying that its gonna rain soon and of coz i didn't listen, abit of rain wun kill me plus i din run for a week already!!!
when i started off, a series of thunder n lightning came and the sound of thunder getting louder and louder..i wasn't freak out at first until i saw lightning strikes a few times across the sky..at this moment i suddenly remembered there was once a guy got strike by lightning while walking to the bus interchange in pasir ris..and den i looked around, though i'm not in an open field but there're so many tress around!!! arghhhh......!!! help!!!
not long after it rained heavily..i have no choice but to run back to my block AS FAST AS POSSIBLE! in fact i was sprinting back coz the thunder was getting terrible, can u imagine it..when i was running, i heard thunder every 15 secounds and everytime i heard one i thought i wouldn't make it back when the next lightning strikes..i just got a strong feeling that i'm not gonna make it..its a moment where i sensed that today will be my last day..
i started to sprint from bus stop to bus stop..thanking god that i still able to make it to the next shelther...in the end i reached my block and saw my mum @ the void deck with an umbrella..woo!! so touched..but den she wasn't waiting for me..LOL!! she was waiting for my dad to fetch her to some other places....woa lau...~ thought she was worried for me till she came down with an umbrella. but i'm still glad la, i still able to make it back safely. haha.
alrite, i guess those reading this might have burst out laughing n fall off their chairs already but u have to be in that particular situation to understand how frightened i was..NEVER EVER will i go for a jog when it will be raining soon or continue running when its raining heavily..
lesson learnt. =D

haha! i'm almost in cloud9 now. Had an amazing time shopping in orchard with LX on Saturday. We met ard @ 12 in the noon and started off with the Mango shop in Isetan first. LX tried a jacket which she really like, but the size was too big so she wanted to try other Mango outlets to see if there are available sizes. i tried one woolen shrug and one mango top and was in love with them at the first sight. the Mango top is juz $19 bucks..so cheap! haha..yea there's a sale going on at Mango now so u guys better hurry and grab something there!
when we finished shopping ard Wisma Atria, we head on to Forever21. yea, my fave place to shop coz there r so many things to look out for! though the place is rather messy but the staff are very friendly and the clothes are realli nice..I tried 3 pairs of jeans which fits well, realli love the cutting, length and the comfort. We didn't bought anything so we went to the mango @ taka instead.
(ohya, saw my ru hua, Rachel, during lunch! haha..wat a coincidence la!)
LX couldn't find the size of her jacket @ the Mango shop again. Apparently she doesn't have the mood to shop coz her whole mind is occupied by the mango jacket, she was worried she couldn't find the size she was looking for. Anyway, i tried on their jeans and was in a dilemma, whether to get the Mango jeans or the jeans @ forever21. Haiz..i shall hold on first, dun be too rush. Wanted to reserve the jeans first but the salegirl said their dun reserve items.
Next we headed to FOX, Guess, ZARA @ taka, Topshop, Warehouse and the ZARA @ wheelock place. I tried their jeans again..okie la, so-so only. nothing much in ZARA coz most of their stuff have been snap up. So we headed to the Mango shop @ isetan in Shaw building and another one near Pacific Plaza. Still, she couldn't find the right size for the jacket and I couldn't find the pair of jeans i decided to buy in the end. So both of us panicked and went back to the 2 Mango shop @ Wisma n Taka. In the end i bought the jeans and another top, and the girl decided not to buy the jacket in the end..Btw, I felt that this shopping trip was more like a Mango tour around Orchard Road..haha
The both of us went to Tangs and i saw a shrug which i'm looking for!! yes, the exact one at SEED! argghh!!! I wasn't feeling good later as i shouldn't have bought the shrug at Mango!!..
well, duno if i should buy another shrug again..will i be using it often? hmm..i duno..~~2 shrugs doesn't seem alot rite?
The last shop we went was Forever21(again). LX finally bought the first item of the day (finally), a grey sleeveless turtle-neck top. Yup, looks good on her and i'm glad she din went home empty-handed. I bought a new belt at a shop in Wisma..
Afterwhich, we rested our feet at the Food Court @ Wisma. Woa..i must say the food in this food-court are all very tempting. At 10pm when the food court was about to close, there's still a LONG queue of ppl queueing up for the Hokkien Mee..yes, i saw ppl eating it and looks good. LX said the taste was superb though she wasn't a Hokkien Mee lover herself. For those hokkien mee lovers, maybe u can try it out~..
okie that's it for my shopping spree. reached home after 12 hours of walking and my feet seriously need some rest. i counted the no. of jeans i tried on for the day ---> 9!! yes..this set the highest record for the no. of jeans i tried in a day. U might think trying the jeans on is easy but it isn't when u r wearing heels and when the jeans are tight and fitting (unlike guys' jeans which have more rooms for their butts). haha..okie, i'm glad i didn't buy a Levis' jeans..coz tts way too common already..in fact everywhere i go, people are wearing Levis here and there..I just pray i wun regret choosing the Mango jeans instead of the one @ forver21!

its time to sum up wat i did for this whole week.
Having MST for the whole week..studying every single day, n finally its all over! Better celebrate and play hard this weekend coz this time i really have no idea what kinda results i will get for my MST.
the 2 papers which i'm quite confident of scoring are Math and DCS..the rest..
give me a B and i'm satisfied..shouldn't be greedy this semester, especially when this term i didn't study at all..what's more..din even listen in class for certain subjects...haaz..yea, tts why i have a tough time revising the modules..DCS was worst, studied till 3am, slp for 3 hrs and waking up in betweens, asking myself if i could still remember certain definations, in the end the paper turned out to be quite simple.. -.-" shouldn't have torture myself for revising it too much..haha.
But i was disappointed with my ACS and CA..i noe i din do well for this two papers..especially ACS, i thought the paper would be easy and it doesn't turn out the way i thought.
haiz..dun think i can push my GPA to 3.5 anymore.. =<
better maintain my 3.4 or else i'll be locking myself up in my room for some reflections..
this weekend gonna do some shopping for my new year..really have no idea what kinda clothes i wanna buy..but well, going out with my bestie is already good enough. really need to go out this weekend coz i've been locking myself at home to study for this whole week..!!
