It's been 3 weeks and as you can expect, I've been burying my head in research papers getting my essays done and i'm finally finished with my fifth and final one for the semester. Lots of other schoolwork to catch up on too so i'm sacrificing my sleep time to do some things that i like, like blogging and Running Man. It's kinda hard to type with one hand petting my silly cat HAHAHA.
Anyway, i'll probably not do those day by day updates because i've obviously forgotten all that i've done. Just think about life like what i usually do. I'm a weirdo. So, updates on a more personal level.
Netball is great as usual. I feel like my skills are improving to a certain extent and that makes me more passionate about the sport. Just this week, my monday's team played two full back to back games together (because one other team forfeited) and we won both of them. It gives me the kind of team spirit that i never really experienced before in the past since i've never been in competitive netball. Not that this is, but it's good enough for me. Thankful for the opportunity to continue playing netball regularly and for the chance to experience playing with different people, accommodating to their playing styles and improving myself.
Biggest joke of the year is that i only found out that i was in the VC list for year one first semester and i didn't even realise until the certificate was mailed to my house. Which means that i missed the ceremony and all that kind of stuff HAHAHA but that's fine. It serves as an encouragement for me to continue trying my best for the rest of the semesters ahead.
Empowerment is important. I think i'm getting better as time goes by and i'll continue healing myself through this period. I'm so glad that i'm here in Perth because of all the personal space i get. And also thankful for the assignments (even though i complain alot) to keep me focused on university which means i have less time for my thoughts to stray (or i'll be too tired to). The saying "Out of sight, out of mind" really helps. So while temptations and vulnerability strike at times, i hope i can stay as strong as i am at this current moment.
My mum came over for 12 days and i am thankful that she's always there when i come home from school, that i get to eat her homecooked food (meaning i don't have to cook myself) and that i can become lazier because she's willing to help me with everything. Sure, mums are annoying at times, and she kinda likes to invade my personal space a little too much, but i can only be thankful that i had her company for the past 12 days. And i'm also happy that i got my personal space back HAHAHA i'm a little meanie.
Random thought but i'm happy with life. It's nice to be out there and meet people who smile at you just because. And those who do kind gestures without expecting anything in return. Cliche as it sounds, i guess you can say that it retains the faith i have in humanity and i always aim to carry a better version of myself every single day. Living in this house where i get the sunset view every evening reminds me of how beautiful the world is. I can't wait to travel more and witness all the natural landscapes and phenomenons with my own eyes in future.
Still hoping that i can make it for alumni band's concert this July. Hopefully the concert day is confirmed to be on a date before i commence my second semester back in Perth. Winter break is going to be a busy one, organising MOHH's camp and attending band practices (potentially). One month is a short time to catch up with my friends, spend time with family and have time for myself too.
Got to call the vet early in the morning tomorrow since Brooklyn's ear problems aren't resolved yet. Really need to find time to get a job when i'm back in Singapore, her vet fees are expensive. I think i'm rambling on too much, i don't know what i'm saying anymore.
I think i kinda forgot how to end a blog post, it's been too long since i last blogged. It's past 12am so Happy Friday everyone! Have a wonderful weekend ahead, may life be good to everyone :)
Capture your smile,
Hahaha hello. If you're reading this, i assume you already know me well enough so i guess i don't have to say anything here. But well, if not, you should at least know my name. It's Shiyun. |
