Day 130 ~ The End

Day 130 ~ The End

when the plane touched down, it marks the end of my journey as a foreign student in Paris.
as i looked back over the past 4months i was there
i learnt alot.
in terms of Life Lessons, Knowledge Academically etc

I'm so attached to this place that I cried the day before i left
thank you for bringing me here
thank you for guiding me through my everyday life here
appreciate and treasure what i have
not complain that its too short(even though it is! ><)
remember the people i met here
some of which has become my bestest friends in life!
Fat Buddy! Ah Hwan! Manning!
You will be missed.

Returning back to Singapore makes me come back to reality
so many things i must be responsible for
so many things to do
but one thing I must remember
I'M JUST AN 18 YEAR OLD GIRL
there is so much i can handle.

Where will I be after graduating?
Who knows.
But for now, I'll work hard and do my best.
I'll just be where my life leads me to

Local or Overseas?
which one would I prefer? if you know me well, you will know ;)

till then,

Day 115 ~ I - Oriented post

Day 115 ~ I - Oriented post

I don't want to rush my entire life through.
I don't want to live a life that is just for working.
J'aime ma vie!
I want to cherish the time I have here in this lifetime.
I have wasted 18years.
I never want to waste it again.
I want to have experiences.
I want to experience life.
I want to live differently and live out of my shell.
The shell and the well that I have been living in all these years that I have lived.
Its time I spread my wings and soar high up in the sky like never before
This is what I want to do.
And this is who I want to be.
