We'll be shooting stars just passing by;

Can you be my nightingale, sing to me.
Demi Lovato's new album is good. My ears are in happy land.
 
It's my friend's birthday tomorrow. I have planned to squeeze/smash whipped cream onto her face haha. Will she kill me? Most probably. I think she will see the love behind it ;)
 
I got a free ticket to Shakespeare in the Park, a production of Othello! I am obsessed with plays, yay! Downside of it: I have to talk to people from JP Morgan. About university. Cue freaking out. Dear God, help me to not embarrass myself? Thanks.
 
The sun shining down,
Pat :)
 
PS: HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO @limabean-347. You are one of my favourites, I love your sweet comments (and replies to my weird blogs) :) God bless everything you do!

Our fingers traced in circles round it's history.
Hey guys! I am sorry for the lack of activity this year, I am trying to come up with new sets! My exams are thankfully over, that way I would be able to cope with the quizzes and assignments at a much more leisure-y pace. (Not that it is pleasant to do.) Slightly different layout here, like it hate it?
 
Today has been very chill. In the morning I picked up some green mangoes at the park near my place. I can't wait for them to ripen, hopefully they would be nice and sweet. It really is the mango season now, the trees are all brimming with green mangoes threatening to drop into your lovely cupped hands any moment!
 
I tend to exaggerate.
 
On to other things, I just made a Nutella Mousse. The secret ingredient? Don't freak out — TOFU! I couldn't believe it when I first saw the recipe. Plus, it's only two ingredients. Nutella and tofu. Simple. I was a bit tentative to try and make this, but since the recipe was on one of my favourite food bloggers website, I figured it should taste alright. And the verdict... It's delicious! I am not joking, it tastes as good as a mousse which is made with whipped cream. (**I may sound a little healthy in my past two sets but these are rare occurrences actually heh)
 
PS: Joyful birthday! Blessed birthday! Happy birthday to @iloveyoudd! :) You have been such a great friend, I wish blessings upon to you! Nothing less!
 
PSS: Thanks to @polyvore for making this a top set!
It's just a spark but its enough to keep me going.
1. This collection... I just want everything!
http://goo.gl/NhhBq
2. My exams aren't over but I need to publish a set. Yep.
3. I just baked a three ingredients cookie. Banana, oatmeal and Hershey chocolate chips! Yummy and healthy — that's the way to go ;)
4. This set is a gift to @mars @katarina-kaja @dora04 @vexybabe. Sending you guys my chocolatey love, all gooey and fabulous! Happy birthday! Spend your birthday well and stay inspired (be it by fashion, nature...)!

You need to get lost before you get found.

You need to get lost before you get found.
Rolling into action:
1) I am (along together with three comrades) on the front cover of a magazine! Haha you must be thinking, 'What magazine?! Tell us Pat, don't troll!' I doubt any of you would be interested in it as it is a magazine based on the achievements of different schools. We were featured for our 'good designing', although I feel that there are other schools which are better. I look like an awkward duck that is scared of the big bad wolf. On the front cover. Somebody shoot me, dear heavens. It is an app magazine, but I am not going to tell you guys :p
2) My exams are tomorrow :( They will last for five weeks. Somebody shoot me again. There are 2 papers every Monday for five weeks. At least there is some sort of buffer or rest period in between every two papers. It would be good if I could finish all my exams in one week, but this system makes it more relaxed.
3) Currently, I have a China buddy with me! I love foreign students, you are able to bring them around your country and have fun! Which I have been doing instead of studying. Oops. Last Friday we went cycling by the beach. Everything was seemingly enjoyable until she fell. And my heart just went OH NO. I felt so guilty that she got hurt on my watch. My friend had brought her brother along and he was an annoying orange. He kept making my head go bonkers with his misleading questions and coyness. At the end of the trip, he said he did that because my reactions were hilarious. Goodness, am I some sort of part time comedian? Ugh.
4) On a positive note, my holidays are in 9 weeks. Starting a countdown because I am EX-CI-TED! :D
5) I feel like eating marshmallows dipped in chocolate.
6) Happy birthday set to @ts-alex @gul07 @sylvialucky @sirius-black @euafyl @patpaykay @elenadal. I would have loved to make an individual set for all of you but I don't have the time. Sorry! Nonetheless, I wish you all good health, and never stop doing what you like! Go forth and be adventurers!

1) What's your favorite book?
My favourite book changes quite frequently, but I think one that really left an impression would be Pride and Prejudice. The development in the book is my cup of tea. Haha and possibly because when I was reading the book, I had the yummiest scones next to me. I am not sure if the book or scones is more memorable :p
 
2) What's your favorite fashion trend of the moment?
I am not too sure if its a trend, but I love butterfly prints.
 
3) What do you want to be when you grow up / see yourself doing?
My first answer would be a ninja. But I think that is rather unrealistic as I run slowly.
 
4) What makes you unique?
Hmm, I like to smile at strangers.
 
5) What's one regret you have about your childhood?
I wish I hung out more with the kids at my neighbourhood. I did play with them, but the relationship wasn't very strong or lasting.
 
6) Describe your style in real life.
I like to wear shorts because Singapore is humid and stripes do appear a lot in my everyday wear :)
 
7) What age of your life was your favorite and why?
Perhaps when I was 9 or 10? Everything felt perfect then.
 
8) What's your favorite quote?
'We must take adventures in order to know where we truly belong'
 
9) What kind of person are you/were you like in high school?
I am a chatter bug in school. I talk too much for my own good and I wish I have a brain filter! I just can't control the muscles at my mouth sometimes.
 
10) Say one random fact about yourself.
I sleep more than 8 hours a day. Rather rare for a high school student, huh? :)
 
11) Describe yourself in 5 adjectives.
Hungry, small, bubbly, weird, cute. (I wouldn't call myself cute, but that's what a lot of my friends call me)
Get over your hill and see what you find there.
I am alive :D
 
OBS was fun, I loved the bonding with my classmates. There were moments where I felt like dying but miraculously I pulled through those difficulties! To those who wished me the best, thank you so much. I didn't succumb to the fear of heights! But, it was mostly because my high element activity was cut short and I could only climb the first quarter. I think I would have given up around the middle :p
 
Happy birthday to the lovely @ellie366 @melissa-beee @dreamer1983 @sawe! Every day is a fresh new day, embrace it and make it magical!

The sea is emotion incarnate.
Guys. I am scared.
 

 

 

I am going to Outward Bound School for five days. If you don't hear from me by Sunday, please dial my parent's numbers and send them your condolences.
 
Haha I don't think it would be that bad, I am quite excited for this experience! Hopefully my fear of heights will not make an appearance :p
 
Happy birthday to @luxecouture @hortensie @hug-voldemort! Never be afraid to seize opportunities! Even if there might be uncertainty. Wishing you joy and peace (this sounds so Christmasy but nevermind)! :D
 

**bag, bracelet and sunglasses from http://www.choies.com.
Chasing out all my skeletons and the troubles they have caused.
A set to the wonderful @diegolohve @bloggablegirl @anabella507! Happy belated birthday! With each new day comes new strength and new thoughts, I pray that you will be empowered in whatever you do :)
 
I am really glad my investiture is over, all the rehearsals were making my head go dizzy. School formal uniform + court shoes = catastrophe. I am a walking disaster in heels! Although the shoes were only 2 inches high, I somehow managed to break both heels. My walking must have been pretty bad haha :p My feet ached at the end of last week, ugh. Wearing heels for 4 days consecutively is not good. I wonder how do models survive? By leaning on the belief that pain is beauty? I don't want to go through that pain again, I am sticking to my flats/sneakers! :)

Tagged by @i-talk-to-trees:
 
1) What are three places you've always wanted to go to?
Paris, New York and Prague!

2) Do you play any instruments?
I can play the ukulele. Super cute, I love the sort of 'jamming' feel that it has. Hmm.. I sort of can play the piano. I know the basics (thank you dear school) but I can only play Twinkle Twinkle Little Star. Pretty cool, huh?! #feelfreetojudgepat
 
3)Any current obsessions?
Butterflies and swallows! They are so pretty! (Check out some artsy designs on Etsy, you will be amazed.)
 
4)Do you prefer to stay inside or outside?
It depends.
 
5)Do you read a lot?
*nods head fervently*

6)Favourite kind of tea?
Cranberry citrus tea!
 
7)How would you describe your style?
Cute? I have been trying to get out of this zone though. And failing. So I guess I will just stick to my cutesy style :)
 
8)Do you have any pets?
I used to own 6 rabbits, but I gave them away ):

9)Favourite artsy past time?
Haha either Polyvore or my random sketches in my notebook.
 
10)Weirdest movie you've ever seen?
I can't remember the title, but it's a Chinese movie about aliens that gave birth to humans and made them undergo an operation to be an alien. Go figure.

11)What would you change your name to?
I am not too sure (I already quite like my name!), but I like names that are related to flowers. So maybe Primrose, Azalea, Lilac or Fleur.

Today, I am laughing the clouds away.
Love is Easy - Mcfly.

3. Happy birthday to @stream and @rainie-minnie. Please continue being an amazing fashionista, and keep a smile on your face. Hold tight to that hope of yours, it will bring you great joy :)
4. Sigh, I have to write a personal statement. No idea how to start, or how to make my life sound interesting. Any tips?
5. QOTD: What kind of weddings are the best? Beach, church, the top of the Empire State Building? Surprise me.

Move your feet in time, put your hand in mine.
Going live in 5, 4, 3, 2, ....
 
1. CNY is here! Time to celebrate with mandarin oranges and festive cookies! I just ate my reunion dinner and it was perfect. Never laughed so hard or ate so well in a long time. I love my family :) Can't wait to see the rest of my extended family tomorrow/day after!
2. This week was pretty rushed, I was in the OT for a Valentine's Day Initiative, and many proposals and publicity had to be done. The idea is to hand-deliver brownies to the friends of those who purchase them. The funny part of it all is the song dedication — those who purchase the brownies would like the councillors (that's me) to sing a song to their friend, and we have to do that ughh. It's both interesting and yet embarrassing at the same time :p Hopefully they don't pick any songs with high notes!
3. This set is for the wonderful @de-si-ree. Happy birthday ma ami! It's the big old 30! Love what you hold, and stay gold! Wishing you lots of happiness (especially with your husband) and that you will never stop smiling :)
4. Tell me, Internet friends, what is one good thing which happened to you today? For me, it would be the reunion dinner with my family. I love eating steamboat and ah, the fellowship with them was amazing.

Say we're never giving up.
1. It's February. The month of Valentine and the Chinese version of a new year! I am pretty stoked, celebrations are always a lot of fun. I can't wait to see all my cousins again, it's nice to know what's going on in their lives :) Besides this, I am going to take part in an animation competition. YAYY? Idk I admit that I am pretty hesitant stepping into the animation world, I am only good as a viewer, not much of a creator! :O
 
2. I think one of my resolutions has been going on fine (not the chocolate one, I kinda gave it up after one week haha), making new friends can be a tick off the list. I hope I can keep this up, and deepen my relationship with these new comrades. It's been great so far, I already have a weird anime fan club which I started (nothing official) :) As for Directioners... I am afraid I haven't found my perfect squeal buddy yet.
 
3. Thinking of serving a nice cup of coffee to a loved one on Valentines? Give it a cute touch — http://goo.gl/m9ym5
 
4. Have a great month ahead guys! Feel free to tell me what you ate today to make me jealous :)
