Scent

Wow, two posts within two days? I'm amazing (Not really) hahaha Okay, there are two reasons why I'm blogging again. #1, is because well... ehehehe you'll find out later. #2 is simply because I want to type on my new computer again! I mean, come on, it's not often you get a new freaking awesome beautiful computer! So of course I'd want to be on it! (I'm so childish okay whatever)

Okay, so I'm sure most readers would remember C from a while back. Well, guess what, I'm over him LOL Aaaaand I'm sure you know where this is going. Yes. There's a new guy. Well, he's not really that new, I've known him for a while now, almost 4-5 years. And it wasn't until recently (like about a month back or so) he kind of caught my eye. I probably seem kind of "easy" to y'all now oops but I don't really care, because I'm not that kind of person. I personally blame the raging hormones every teenager gets once in a while. Seriously, I've been in all girls' schools for, like, my entire life. The occasional boy is welcome, okay.

So this guy. Let's call him K. I don't ever want to name these people mainly because if they Google themselves or whatever it may come out. Another reason would be to respect privacy. If anyone ELSE Googles them, their faces may appear. May not be appreciated by them, so yeah. Anyway, my dad runs a tuition centre and K is one of the teachers there, and he does the materials we use too. K used to be my dad's student, and he's like, 7 years older than me. The age gap is a little bit too much. Raging hormones. He's still young. I'm too young. :P So that's kind of the background story.

K has been around for a while, more frequently so in the past few years. I've always noticed that he's really easy on the eyes, and I mean reaaaaally easy. He's freaking cute, to put it simply. Sure, he didn't exactly have wonderful grades and he's not the tallest guy in the world (he's around my height oops). But I swear he is one of the most hardworking people I've ever seen. He travels a lot, and photography is one of his hobbies (I seem to like photographers a lot, never really realised...). But here's the thing: he brings his laptops on some trips because he wants to complete the materials he needs to, even if they won't be used for the next 6 months. Organised and always prepared. Pretty wonderful traits, if you ask me. He never ever complains about having too much work, and he sometimes even sleeps over at the tuition centre to complete the materials on the desktop we have there.

Like, if it was me, I would just do it on my computer, upload it onto Google Drive, and you go settle the other shit yourself because I can't really be bothered to. This is really the next level; I have never seen someone do this before. My older brother used to be the one doing the materials, and I've done some myself. It's what Singaporeans call "sai kang". Literal translation, "sh*t job". I understand that he loves teaching (he wants to be a teacher, and he's currently working under my dad so yeahhh), travelling and food is his life :3 He's generous too, often buying drinks and little snacks for the other staff at the tuition centre, my family and me.

So it seems like I've been painting a really pretty picture of this dream guy? Well guess what, as if he wasn't perfect enough, he smells heavenly. Like, no kidding. I'm not sure if it's body wash or cologne but whatever it is, it's wonderful. I'm sure everyone has heard of the "People who smell good are naturally more attractive" thing. Well, it's freaking true. It's almost the largest reason why I like him so much. Of course, the other reasons help too, but this is like it. Today, I had holidays class, so I was at the tuition centre and K was there too. And his scent basically filled the whole staff room (I'm allowed in there, normal students aren't ehehehe). It was so good I can't even hahahaha

Sigh all this fangirling but I suppose it's rather harmless. (Well, it is. And at least we know I'm straight.) I don't actually plan to have a boyfriend until I'm doing well in my studies and whatnot, at least able to cope with life and still have a little bit of free time here and there. Yes, having a life partner whatnot blah blah blah is important, but I'm still studying; education takes priority at the moment. I want to get the job I want, even if it's not exactly the most sustainable one. But people are surviving off it, so who's to say I won't? K is the kind of person I want to be when I'm older. Hardworking, dedicated, successful to some extent. He's my motivation, my role model. 

Alright, I'm done fangirling and stuff hahahaha Just thought it'd be nice to share this a little. I might be seeing K a bit more next year because he might be doing one-to-one tutoring for me since I'm struggling with Chemistry oops.

Well, that's it for now and probably a long while, since I'm going overseas soon! I'm excited hahahaha Live well, Love much, Laugh often!

Dec the Hols!

I can finally blog again! It's been sooo long (oops) So many things have happened since I last blogged. It's been over a month, and many things can happen in a month, let alone over a month.

First off, school ended! Yayy! It was so exciting, last days of schools always are. But there was also our camp proposal to do, although that didn't take up as much time as we thought it would. It barely even ate into any of our days and it was pretty fun, planning everything and stuff.

Next, there was camp. That was a week ago, from 17 November to 19 November. It was tiring, and the food was bad (it usually isn't, actually. But this camp's was BAD.) It was bad to the point where I felt nauseous just looking at food for those three days. There was outdoor cooking (ODC) and that was really fun. We cooked good food, and that was literally the only meal that was good. The activities and stuff were epic and fun, and we had a great time executing them, though everything kind of dragged a little hahaha Sleep was almost non-existent for some of us, luckily not me. There were people on sentry (basically means you stay up and do shifts overnight, so pretty much "choppy" sleep or no sleep at all) and we kind of overslept by an entire freaking hour on the second night so that was kind of bad. But we managed to work around it and still broke camp on time anyway so that wasn't much of a problem, although it was kind of epic and we, of course, got scolded.

A few days ago was Open House! It was fun and nerve-wrecking in a sense. It isn't my first time joining Open House, but I'd only done so once two years ago, and suddenly the next time I join, I have to lead the entire showcase?! What?? So yeah, that happened. I think it wasn't that bad, because the Juniors are all very good and they can handle anything thrown their way hahahaha :P We did moulaging for the second showcase, and it was a fun experience. The first time we did moulaging was during camp, for an activity. We made lots of noise and we were so childish hahaha It was fun and we had quite the audience this time round, so I hope we managed to wow some people! My CCA's intake is usually rather low, so I hope we'll be able to have an intake of around 20-25 next year. It would be the ideal intake, and hopefully we'd be able to have an intake around these numbers every year, so that we'd be slightly more stable and not on the verge of closing down :/

Some time between the closing of school and a week or so before camp, my old computer crashed! DX It was bad. I'm still trying to retrieve all the stuff that was on my old computer because it's a slow and torturous process that makes me so impatient and angry hahahaha But I got a new computer yesterday (23/11/14) and it's absolutely wonderful. But I'm still trying to copy out the rest of my personal stuff and then I still have to copy out my pictures :( I'm only done with school documents, songs and some of my personal stuff (stories and the like, fortunately I always write them on paper before typing them in, so at least I have the originals). It doesn't really explain why I haven't been blogging for forever but better late than never hahahaha (Okay, not really I'm sorry)

So I'm working on all the stories I have at the moment, and hopefully I'll be able to post something during this holiday. (I know it's not even December yet [the title oops] but it kind fit and I didn't want to wait till December to do it, since I'm overseas on December 1 so yeahh it's a bit difficult to wait hahaha) [All works will be posted onto Wattpad]

Alright, this is about it for now. I didn't really want to post a super long post but not too short either, so I guess this is about the right length. Live well, Love much, Laugh often!
