News and Purchases!

So it's been awhile. Life hasn't been crazy persay but I just haven't had the desire to blog. I also kind of forgot I had a blog.

ANYWAY, I'm done with my Master of Mass Communication at NTU. The graduation ceremony is in two weeks. After which I'm supposed to be starting my job *fingers crossed if everything goes well* as a Research Associate in NTU. It's going to be a job doing research using Digital Technology to Combat Obesity. Can't really explain it. But its cool.

In the meantime I'm back in Malaysia for a couple of days recouping with the family, waiting for immigration paperwork type stuff and generally eating my face off.

I'm also moving into a new place in Singapore - a condo where I'll be renting a room from a lovely lady which should be great. I now have these new resolutions for me being 26. I'm SUPER excited about it, but thats totes another post.

So basically its a bit of limbo time for me - packing up stuff, throwing away stuff, immigration stuff, hanging out with the fam stuff and so on. I'm also turning 26... so... I BOUGHT NEW CLOTHES! Ahahahaha - which is really the actual point of this post.

So the other day with my friends Hattie I went to the Ngee Ann City Food Festival where we ate some Taiwanese fried chicken and ate famazing Udderz ice-cream. And then we SHOPPED.

I bought a Pull and Bear skirt for like SGD9.90 - I know its a bandage skirt and I have like 5 but I love it!


I then bought this SGD10 from Cotton On (I have one just like it in like Tiger print something which looks good) and a belt from Myphosis for another SGD10 for my birthday.


But then the next day when I went to Marina Square Mall to kill time I found this dress for a super cheap SGD47.90 at Desigual and I HAD TO HAVE IT.


I'm planning on wearing it with silver hoops and obviously just pretending I'm Latine :)

How to deal with being rude to someone

So the other day I snapped at a friend of mine - not a close friend - but still a member of my core friend group and basically told her that I would slap her face for something she said. It was done in a very aggressive manner and it was in response to me already being mad at her for something that I hadn't articulated as well as because I haven't been sleeping very well.

Needless to say she was completely taken aback and was a little quieter after that. In the days that have followed I have realized that she isn't talking to me and that she has been going out of her way to avoid group situations with me. I do now feel badly about the whole thing and figured that I would apologize and explain what had prompted my behavior. The thing is she as been avoiding me so that's a little hard.

I finally just caved and messaged her on Facebook to apologize and she signed off and didn't respond despite doing other stuff on it - so clearly she saw the message. The thing is my immediate response was "Damn her! I'm being the bigger person and apologizing - she should be fine with that!" But really it's completely up to her how she feels about it. If she really doesn't want to go on and be friends with me or if she just needs more time it's really her choice.

And that's the thing when you say things, you can't take back what you've said so you better be sure you can live with the consequences. I feel kinda shitty now but hell I said it - I'm not even that sorry I'm just sorry I was rude about it. But that's life I guess!

And then she messaged me saying she had no idea what I had said and that we're fine. Seriously???
