Hunger Hormones Posted at 02:44 0 comments (+)

Food. Food. Food.

"RAWR // I'M HUNGRRRRY ALL THE TIME!!"

They say you should always know who your enemy is, or who your enemies are, in this case

No wonder I'm at a weight-loss plateau after losing 3-4kg in 1.5 months after CNY this year. Mehh.

Got inspired to try out a new workout plan after Azalea posted her progress picture on Twitter!! I still remember talking to her about fitness stuff when we met at Uni-Y camp (one of the CSP camps in SMU!) two years ago. She lost weight and managed to get her abs!! So proud and happy for her for achieving her goal :> :>

And on the other hand... *looks down* I HAVE ABS TOO. Just that I have a layer of fat over them HAHAHA. Used to have crazy weight loss goals such as "Lose 10kg!!!!!" "LOW CARBS ALL THE WAY" and when I didn't achieve them within a few weeks, I started slacking :(

Super grateful to have friends who work out too, especially my fav workout partner, Fionelalalallaa Fooz who did the Insanity workout with me *\o/*!! Will be blogging about the new workout schedule tomorrow or something 'cuz it's really time for me to sleep (or attempt to) now.

Always yawning but not sleeping,

DIY Floral Hairband Tutorial Posted at 20:13 0 comments (+)

Hello guys! I was in town the other day and saw some really pretty floral headbands selling at Lovisa.

Something like this:

Taken from Lovisa website

Wanted to get it but uh,

1) Flowers were too big for my liking

2) The price tag $ - was going for about sgd $20 and I don't think i'll wear it out that often

Hence, I've decided to DIY!!

Materials needed:
1) Artificial flowers from Daiso - $2
I got white flowers cuz it's my favorite color... but Fel told me that it isn't advisable to wear white flowers in your hair for due to some Chinese tradition. o_o
2) Glue from Daiso - $2
Any super glue is alright too!
3) Old plain hairband
4) Scissors

Steps:

1) Cut the flowers off from the stem

2) Glue them on the head band

and.. you're done! :)

Brb twirling around,

Ame

The last day Posted at 02:40 0 comments (+)

Well hello darlings,

SCHOOL'S OUT 'cuz I'm done with all my papers!

Had another random idea the night before my corporate communication paper and decided to jot it down. There's a folder in my dropbox containing all of that and I can't wait to try them out this SUMMER. HOORRRRRRAY!

Headed to MBS with the comm mates after our paper to spend the vouchers we had won for having one of the most interesting presentations haha. Thank you prof :)

All my profs this semester are really good btw! Didn't regret bidding for them:

IS 102: CAT - Prof Kyong

LGST 001 - Prof Melvin Chew

Comm 102 - Prof Brian Lee

MKTG 101 - Prof Chung

Had a great chat with Sally, and the things she said really got me thinking.

I should never, ever, discount myself.
Sounds like something Cat, Sa and Kim would say too hehe. Definitely blessed to be surrounded by people who'll give me wake-up calls occasionally.

Thanks for being silly, my friends.

Love,

Ame

So Dark, I don't wanna head back there Posted at 04:28 0 comments (+)

I was hungry. At 2am.

"No. No food for you, Fatty" and started pinching my thighs absentmindedly. Fortunately, I stopped after realizing what I was doing.

Here's something I've never really told anyone. About a year ago when I was trying so hard to lose weight, I'd stand naked in front of a mirror, pinch my fats & criticize myself. Painful, but satisfying in a weird way.

"Don't say something to yourself that you wouldn't say to a friend"

Would I stop someone from eating when she's hungry? Would I love someone less because she would look better if she were to lose 10 pounds? Would I tell her that her thighs are humongous and she needs to do something about it cuz "they are obviously rubbing against each other" when she isn't even overweight?

No, I wouldn't.

Today is probably just one of those days I feel shitty about myself. From hating my body 24/7 to occasionally, I'm definitely getting there.

Signing off with a quote & a happy tummy,

Ame

A thought for You and I Posted at 02:25 0 comments (+)

When you think that you can never be “good enough”, you allow yourself to settle for second-best. You allow yourself to be second-best. That is extremely selfish of you, because you and I, we’ve been blessed with the lives we have, and at our best, imagine what we can do — not only for ourselves but for the people around us, and for the world. At our best, we pursue an enriching existence and in being our best, we inspire the people around us. Never underestimate how much of an inspiration you are for others. You don’t need to be a celebrity in order to touch lives and trust me when I say this, for my family and friends have inspired me in so many of their little but significant ways.

The Ferocious Cat Posted at 02:12 0 comments (+)

So today, or rather, yesterday, I sat for my CAT paper in my fox muscle tank. Fox because it belongs to the dog family... and cats are terrified of dogs (hence I'd ace the paper), right?

Heading to school happily without knowing what lies ahead....

BAH.

Wrong. It was bad.

Got killed by the 2nd question and there were only 2 questions in the paper lolol. Norminv shit was back to haunt me (From A levels to Stats mod in uni and now, an Excel mod?!)

#yougottabekidding

Oh well, at least it's over. Goodbye, IS102 Computer as Analysis Tool, I WILL DEFINITELY NOT MISS YOU.

Dusty pink might just be my new favorite color Posted at 16:10 0 comments (+)

Snapshot of my Google Chrome right now.

Many thanks to Cat (Lai Foong Ming) for installing Momentum App on my chrome for me :D It's kinda obvious that I'm sitting for CAT (Computer as Analysis Tool) paper tomorrow...

The app is perfect for someone like me because:

I love motivational quotes. And there's a new quote on the page every day :D
I bring my laptop out more often than my planner and this allows you to have a to-do list at the side
New high-definition picture every day

How to download this application on your Google Chrome:

1) Google 'Momentum App' or head to this link.

2) Click the green button that says "Add to Chrome" on your top right hand corner

Mine's Added to Chrome cuz it's already installed!

3) Enjoy this amazing App :D

Had my weekly brunch with Sissy on Saturday:

We look really alike, but you can definitely tell us apart.

The height difference is a bit too much ah HAHAH

RAWRRR // Dinosaur in dusty pink

Sis: She's got my back

Me: Yep, datz right. NO. ONE. BULLIES. MY FAMILY. MEMBERS.

Same face, just that one has makeup on :)

Can't wait for tomorrow's paper to be over.

And it'll just be FCC left! :)

FIGHTING.

"Keep your eyes on the prize"

"I.. am trying. But it's really difficult"

"Well, all things are difficult before they are easy"

Maybe I just don't want it bad enough.

No, wait.

I do.

Huge ass selfie even though I was really tired that day.

I need to fall asleep faster. T_T

With Liang, who picked us up to Clarke Quay ^^

Life is awesome when you've a friend who drives (& able to get a car somehow)

Wanted to try Fullhouse @ Clarke Quay cause it's themed and adorable. Definitely a place that suits Chirpychan... but being the aunty me, I compared prices & found out that a main dish at Full House is almost equivalent to lunch buffet at Chiso Zanmai.

So.. Obviously Chiso Zanmai won. Hahaha
