47 PAUL x True Love

Post Prelims is good :) No more stress (for the moment) and maybe getting to chillax just a bit before I continue my coffeeaddict-studyeveryday cycle. Since I'm a bit sick so I decided to forgo my KFC (still on a quest to find the BEST fried chicken, any recos? BTW KFC student meal runs daily regardless of weekdays/weekends and 2 piece chicken + mash potato + a drink for $5 is a steal ^^) 

Anyways, ever since my super nice senior/gor KELVIN FAN (okay honorary mention aren't you honoured) bought this for me earlier this year I have been in love! I'm not a very fruit tart person - not a fan of custard (I think that's the base beneath all the fruits) but this is DELISH. The fruits for one, were really fresh, and really sweet - not because of the glaze, but rather the good picking of fruits.  

The crust, was not too thick, but very firm. I think it's really hard to eat this because the fruits are so nicely arranged on top and that with every bite you will actually affect the "equilibrium" of the tart and fruits might topple to one side hahaha. I gave up using a fork so I used my hands - and with every bite it  gives me enough crust + custard + fruit ratio so I am happy (or rather my biting skills are superb maybe?) The crust isn't too buttery or flaky - some might find it too dry but hey that's what a tart base is supposed to do rightt?

Here are some photos of PAULs:

Yeap they sell bread too. But after reading the comments section on ladyironchef, I would suggest you not to buy the bread because readers say it is stale and pricey? Maybe that explains why there were so much bread when I went there (around 9pm on a Wednesday night)

WHOOHOO FRUIT TARTS *~*

Been crazy in love with the catchy tune of this song PLUS the lyrics that are just so true!! It's like.. love is a  love hate thing no? You just accept the flaws of the other person hehe. (Maybe I've been affected by all the boyfriend-criteria posts online recently >_>)

And I guess this is what I think love is.. like the song, very comfy and soothing and it's omnipresent! HAHA Okay little girl's rubbish fantasty, but really 温温的感觉很美好 ^~^ How he makes you feel loved all the time - not the obsessive type that you gotta spend a lot a lot of time but that you both trust each other enough and you're comfortable around each other's presence :)

OKAY HAHA OFF TO DO WORK AFTER MUCH RUBBISH RAMBLINGS. CAN'T WAIT FOR FRIDAY.. Then after that the mug life again ;_;

46 I love you too ♡

Four words that I've never told you - nor did I ever wanted to admit.

Tonight my sister will be flying to the other half of the globe to start her new life.

I am 1) very jealous 2) very proud of her 3) I miss her already (she hasn't even left geez)

Bring me along in your luggage to Cam ;_; I wanna go there too! I don't wanna take As ):
And I'm very happy for you for getting into your dream school - stay there and don't come back :p

Even though we have distinct personalities and we do have conflicts/different views and ideas, I love you too. Even though we've never really hung out much, I know you secretly care for me just like how I secretly care for you (just that I've never admitted it), so yeap here's my huge confession to you :)

Just remember if you need someone to talk to you can always whatsapp me and I'll be here for you
- stay safe and don't be stupid! You can be very touched to read this - I approve >)

45 Thankful for As

Daily reminder that you're more than enough: 

I try to remember to practice gratitude even during the tough times heh, so today I would just like to thank As.

Not a lot of people can afford education- and I met say I'm luckier than truckloads of people in this worlds so I'm thankful - for this opportunity of being able to receive some form of education.

Through this process, I've stumbled a lot and definitely learnt how to pick myself up during the times no matter how reluctant. It's not even a choice - and this is something that will happen again and again throughout life so I must say I'm thankful to have experienced it once now, so that next time I'll look back and motivate myself to get back up. 

The friends that I've been more than privileged to have through this journey - S62, Studious Sundays, <3 and many other friends who do not fail to send words of encouragement to help me tide through this period.. Those who nag at me to eat (even though I really don't want to :<), those who dragged me out to study with them instead of allowing me to rot and depreciate myself further, those who pop by once in a while to check if I'm okay -  it's the thought and concern that's so :')) I don't show it but I really feel the love :) 

Some of these people I've poured my hearts out and I know these are the people that I will keep in touch for the rest of my life (terrorize their kids and/or join their kids to create havoc hehe) 

As have also allowed me to understand myself more. How I am the type that love to explore new boundaries and knowledge in the everyday world - instead of rote learning and plunking chunks of stuff. I love to understand how the world is today - and I simply love the arts! (Geog, History, Econs) 

No doubt As have made me upset hell loads of times but I would just like to take this chance to remind myself to push on. I've found the things I love, embarked on new journeys alongside this painful process to offset the negative externalities LOL and I am positive, one day, I'll be where I want to be :) 

So let me just give my all - short term sacrifice, long term returns. #motivatedforAs #letsgo 

44 Mini Surprise Pet Project!

Haven't been updating as things have been pretty intense lately. However, since everyone is so gloomy here is a very interesting site that will help brighten up your day:

22 Times When Harry Potter’s Bitch Face Was Better Than Yours

And for those of you who want to learn Korean, here's a special website:

And likewise if you guys need extra help for As - my favourite website: http://owlcove.sg

You can get condensed notes and ask the admins to clarify concepts if you want/need to :)

Copied directly from my Facebook:

Hi friends! I know this isn't a very suitable time to be doing this, but I would like to embark on a little pet project to keep me sane throughout this period of insanity.

For those who know me personally, I am someone who love reaching out to people and spring minor surprises when I can. When people around me are undergoing periods of stress/depression etc, I will write/prepare a note/letter/gift for them - this time round I would like to extend it to anyone and everyone who can see this post! (Please don't expect much I probably might just draw a happy sunshine and send it your way with a small note of encouragement :/)

If you'll like to get a note/letter/picture/random thing, do email me at fuzzycuddlybear@gmail.com telling me minor details like who are you, maybe what are you going through/current emotional state or just that you'll like to receive some happy thoughts! (Rambling is fine) I'll give priority to those undergoing tougher times/having major exams like As

I plan to carry this project all the way till next year, so if you'll like to receive it within a certain time frame do also notify me (and I'll do it if possible). For Hwachies, it's easier for me to place it on your class bench so do include that in your email if it's possible.

Cheers and hope to write to you soon! :)

PS haha so far I've only received a few and I hope you guys won't be shy!
