had my first shot at making sushi today! it was quite fun :) hopefully there will be a next time so that i can hone my skills! haha. there wasn't much variety though. we only had 3 types: tuna with cucumber, mango with prawn, and egg with meat floss.

the egg roll is a random item i made to use up the scraps left 

went for latin practice today because swan practice was pushed back. it was nice seeing everyone (almost everyone) back for practice :) the was packed as usual but it was nice having everyone back :) haha i'm just repeating myself aren't i? 

anyway i've thought it through, and i think i'll really drop my tuition. hopefully with that down i'll be able to cope with latin and indancity and also exco next year? if not, i'll have to drop latin...i'll contact my tuition kid's mum tomorrow. sighh but i feel a little guilty and also sad. i just got started on my tuition kid not long ago, and i really want to help him improve. but i just can't afford the time. tuition will be twice a week once dec is over. tuition twice a week inclusive of travelling time etc can be quite time consuming, so with that cleared i think i'll be able to free up quite some time. 

hmm the new year's coming real soon. and of course it's time for new year's resolutions! resolutions are meant to be kept, but new year's resolutions somehow never really stick. i guess the trick to it is not too have too many but really focus on a few (most feasible and plausible ones) and keep them! i have one very important resolution so far:

BE ON TIME. whether for classes or project meetings or meetings with friends. i really need to be punctual. i actually never had such a problem last time. i don't know when it started. i think it started some time after JC and continued through to uni? it's a horrible habit. ahh must kick it now before it's too late!

but yayy finally managed to get the cute soft slippers we've been wanting to get for bro :) and we also got a pair each for ourselves! love them! but they're pretty expensive! never thought such slippers can cost that much haha

as usual, dance took up the whole of my sunday today...

sigh i really have got no affinity with the black box props used for dan's small item :s today i got hurt by the black box, again, for the third time. and this time i got hurt quite badly :( got cut and bruised. looks gross. the bruise is a bump, so now there's a hump on my leg boohoo. hope it will heal soon! i've generously lathered zambuck on it

i think i'll go for a swim, head down with my parents to SPOM and then when i'm dropped off at orchard i'll probably make my way to bugis to meet my sis. see how her roadshow's doing :) if she'll take long maybe i'll walk around bugis or something. yayy lazy day :) can relax a little.

i still have muscle ache from albert's on thu! this is horrible. arms aching. from carrying weiliang and doing pushups. haha. i'm too weak. ahh but i don't wanna do so many pushups already! arms getting big :s disgustingg bleah

sighh yesterday's entry would've been a lot more positive and happy had i not received a call from eugene and night and checked my grades. oh well. today's a new day and i think it's time to move on! 

anyway a bit about yesterday..had quite some fun iceskating with ster and her two friends, though i got quite a big blister :/ and the iceskates stank. but it was quite fun considering i haven't skated in about a year. we went to the kallang one because the one at jurong east was closed! and we only found that out after we arrived at jurong east to find the place quiet and empty. 

then at night we headed down to LMS for its official opening. there was a yummy buffet spread, but it was quite heaty though! had some fun looking around, meeting the LMS people after almost one and a half years! how time flies..

makes me wonder what i'll be like in another one and a half years time..i'll be in my last year? about to graduate in about a year. hmm..

I'm still in shock. I think I'm sad; disappointed too; guilty, and also regretful. All at the same time. There's no one to blame but myself now. And I know I'll have to drop some of my commitments before it's too late. I think I'll most likely drop my tuition, and rethink the way I'm spending my time on my 2 dance ccas and also exco stuff. I need more time for myself. To study, to think, to read, to spend time with my family...

I've a lot of bucking up to do next term, and I don't know whether I'm ready for it yet. I need to think of a way...there must be a way..

I'll think tomorrow. Can't think now. I don't know what to do and emails keep coming in..bombarding my mind, my thoughts. I must say that I never thought that being president can be this hard. The way in which exco matters constantly preoccupy me..it's sometimes even pervasive. But I can't get rid of it. I always have this nagging feeling that I've things undone. And more often than not, this is true. 

But I'm sure I can cope with it somehow. I'll manage somehow. I know I can. But not now...I feel a bit drained and exhausted, mentally..

:(
