I finally moved back to my parents' place. I so glad the logistic night mare is over. It's amazing how much junk you accumulate in a year. I should really be more prudent and selective about what I bring into the house. Selling stuff is a nightmare and sometimes giving away items can be just as hellish and nerve wrecking as well. It's amazing how some people can just expect you to accommodate their schedules when you're GIVING away stuff. Well, if you have stuff that you want to discard, you can check out http://sgfreecycle.org/. You can also check it regularly to see if you want any items that people are giving away. You can also request for items and see if anyone has it. One man's trash is another man's gold. 

So, the first packing and moving is done. And I'm on to the next one. The bedroom is now thronged with loads of unpacked stuff, souvenirs, stuff that don't belong anywhere. It's a mess! I've just shipped over two boxes of personal items and realised that..... (behold) that I was looking at the wrong scale when I was weighing the item. So, I thought I had hit the maximum of 30kg and removed out some of the stuff, when actual fact was..the bloody box was only 12 kg. Darn, classic case of my absent mindedness. I'm sure there will be more of that in Japan.

Souvenirs. Everyone says don't get too stressed out by it. Everyone says it won't make or break your relationship with anyone. That being said, with so much discussion going around it, it's hard not to get caught up by it. I've bought so much Singapore related collaterals that (I quote Gavin's words) I'm like freaking presenting Singapore for Miss Universe. I have also resorted to stealing NDP zocards from restaurants.

On a more positive note, I'm signed upfor a Mount Fuji trek in August! I hope the weather holds up!

"Listen as your day unfolds
Challenge what the future holds
...
You gotta be bad, you gotta be bold
You gotta be wiser, you gotta be hard
You gotta be tough, you gotta be stronger
You gotta be cool, you gotta be calm
You gotta stay together"

You gotta be, By Des'ree

I still find it hard to believe that I am leaving in two months time. It's exciting, but also very daunting. In fact, it scares the hell out of me!
Making changes and moving out of the comfort zone is tough. I need to remind myself that I need to be bold, tough, cool and calm.

The boyfriend is very into Lego recently.







I have to admit. Mini figures sure are cute!

Stereophonics Live in Singapore (Taken with iphone)
I wished I brought my DSLR and took better pictures. Darn.

Phonics as usual was fantastic. Kelly Jones' vocals were impeccable. The only damper was when an idiot threw a slipper which hit Jones directly. He was so pissed that he stormed off the stage with the band. Thank goodness, they came back on and completed the set. It was just disappointing that Singapore had to leave an impression like that on such an amazing band. And I must say, I was rather disappointed with the crowd as well. Not very fond of loud mouthed, inconsiderate Caucasians.

I just discovered a gem. (Thanks to A Cup of Jo)

The Selby features the works of Todd Selby, a photographer and illustrator. I love how you get a peek into the personal spaces of creative individuals. Their workspaces and home reflects their personality and individuality so well.

I really like this set the feel of this space. :)

Ain't this dress summery and happy? I should start adding more colors into my wardrobe.
