so hello to anyone who ever reads this blog! i'm back again and it's only the 6th day of december and i feel like so much has happened since the month started but honestly, i don't think a lot has happened. i'm weird i know judge me. it's gonna be the first time in two years that i'm staying in singapore this december because i've been overseas for two weeks in december for the past two years. have i mentioned this before? i think i have. oops. and the weather had been super crazy, like it rains twice a day kind of thing and it can be really really humid too. guess this is what you get living near the equator. i think it's kinda good that i'm not going overseas this december then at least i'll have some time to do some reflection for this past year. sooo. welcome to Joween's december life! :) ((anyway don't you feel the christmas vibe everywhere you go now???!!!))

my first day of work was on the 2nd of december and i had to be at suntec convention hall at like 8am but being a heartland kid, i obviously had no idea what or where that place was, even though i have probably heard and been there before. thank goodness my dad drove me there today though. and i had a lone breakfast before exploring suntec. that place is so big and scary i just wanna stay in the north forever okay. so i was actually working alone but luckily i found kexin, the cchy junior and she was working alone too and we found company. :-) and made some new people as we had to work with them too. so basically i did a lot of arranging and transporting of books today. like till 10pm with 2 hours of break. the aches did not come today, it came the next day. and when i was working, jtr was actually at level 6 rehearsing for their show for the asian tv awards so they were literally ABOVE ME while i was working dang it. and then they had a radio interview at raffles city starbucks, which i passed by later that night. okay. what. okay. i literally missed the chance to meet jtr twice because i was stuck in a room handling books!

3/12/15 ATAs!!
so today is the asian television awards and if the reason i went to the atas is not obvious enough, it's to watch jtr perform. i mean, it was cool seeing actors and actresses in real life such as pierre png and joanne peh, and other celebrities such as the kpop group, secret, but yeah jtr. boy band phase of my life right now. when jtr appeared on the red carpet, we screamed. when anyone mentioned jtr, we screamed. take note that "we" refers to me and joey because a lot of people went to watch for fun, or supported jeff or secret. but yeah JTR did a brilliant performance of centre of everywhere, their new single. go check it out!! i was hyped, trying to video and watch them perform live at the same time. but okay you know how it goes, i just screamed the lyrics and stuff and cheered when they ended and i think people around us judged us. and secret performed too and i guess that's the first time i watched a kpop group perform in real life. i don't think jun curry anh from shine fest counts right? HAHA. other than jtr's peformance during the atas which totally rocked and got me pumped, it was a pretty chill event for the rest of the evening. at least for me. HAHA. fun fact: before the atas me and joey went to walk around raffles city for a little while because we saw that people actually took pictures with marcus and alfie there. like they arrived in singapore at 5am this morning and then people posted pictures and stuff and we found the location and the place was beside swissotel the stamford (where ilc was held last year hohoho) and we saw some teenage girls and assumed that they were malfie fans and so we kinda guessed that malfie stayed in that hotel. and guess what? when we were queuing up for the ata, malfie were actually at gardens by the bay and we could literally see gbtb from where we were queuing and we were like omg so close but so far away. so yeah no fate with malfie today but we got to see jtr perform live and hopefully they will do a gig in singapore or come back again ya know!!!

on friday we went for the morning devo thing, and it was kinda like a recap. we played a little bit of frisbee. i'm so scared of william cos he's so good at frisbee okay omg, and we had pizza. we also studied. a little bit. i mean i tried okay!!!!! and i saw more pictures of people with malfie mehhhhhhhhhh okay!

5/12/15 DMU!!
so i was awoken up by joey saying "eh wake up let's go to the digital matters thing and see malfie!!" at like 10am or something and i was immediately awoken? because that was our only chance of seeing malfie. the digital matters university talk today was actually for creators, like people who aspire to create a career in this industry. well i might just do this if i fail in school HAHA. okay, but we walked from city hall to the asian civilization museum thanks to google map. and we were one of the 250-300 people who managed to have a more personal or intimate setting interview with malfie. so the talks were by jasper, luke hyams, claire maysh and bing chen about the industry and stuff, and the last segment was of course the interview with malfie, or marcus and alfie. that was when people got crazy and kept screaming HAHAH. it was a fun interview session and the interview often went off-tangent. they did talk about how they started their youtube career and other youtube-related stuff. and then there was the qna part where the audience were to ask malfie questions about their work and stuff but they got questions like "who would be a better dad" and talks about chicken and rice which was hilarious. they also talked about weird experiences with fans, and how alfie would sleep in any position and it was so funny i certainly had a good laugh! p.s. the english accent!!! shout out to dom lau who was such a great host/interviewer/presenter and has such a great sense of humor! well guys, if i don't make it in school, i would consider doing a youtube thing for my own entertainment HAHA. well. it's alfie's first time travelling to this part of the world and we definitely hope that malfie will come back to singapore again and bring other people too yeah!!! fun fact: at city hall, we saw ku who was going to the philatelic museum and her first words when she saw us was "OH MY GOD" i mean hello?? rude!!!!!!! HAHAHA xoxo we have yet to go to the beach. fun fact 2: me and joey watched teens react the whole night it was so hilarious, especially the gaming ones, and i laughed until i teared. you should go watch the react videos, it's funny and talks about a wide range of topics!

this afternoon was so retarded you have no idea! so after church, it started raining really heavily. so me joey jiajuan and tricia crossed over to happy hawkers with 3 umbrellas and after crossing one road, we were all drenched already! my jeans were wet and tricia just ran across so she looked like she stood near a car which ran over a puddle. HAHAH and once we reached the busstop, the rain stopped, and we saw trina and other people walking casually to the busstop and we were like what?! so we decided to eat at kfc and we gave up with the umbrellas and just walked in the drizzle. so yeah i may or may not fall sick soon.

aslo, i figured that since i will be at home this december, it would be a good time to do some reflection for this year which definitely had been hella crazy and insane. so i decided that for this month, at the end of the week i would post something more reflective and personal to me. it would be something like this:
week 1 (this week): lessons learnt this year
week 2: things i'm grateful for this year
week 3: reflections  (like everything that has happened)
week 4: new years resolutions
the arrangement may be ammended, but i really hope that i can do these 4 posts as i feel that it would really get me to sit down and reflect about the year thus far. no plans for the week so far so i think i may need to get started on my homework and revision. major turn OFF. and to most of my friends out there, happy holidays!

till next time x
