Arab Street.

Hei!

On Wednesday,I finally went to Arab Street with Sera to find some cushion covers to change my room theme a little.Currently it's mostly white and like the typical Scandinavian theme,but I recently got into the bohemian/vintage theme and I thought the colours would look really nice against the white furniture.

Managed to get just one cushion cover but I love it sooo much and it'll be up by CNY (:

Also, Happy Valentine's Day ♥ Spent it working and shopping for CNY things in the evening where I bought some cactus plants so it's been one fulfilling day.

Should/Would/Could/Did

Hei!
Just a short update - I've been so so busy preparing for FYP and school work piling up.Am I glad that FYP is over and I can focus on school work and upcoming exams.

A few days ago, my Ballet friend and I went for a trial class.I have been wanting to go awhile back, but recently mustered up the courage and also found a day we could both set time aside for.

It was reallyyy good and I'm pretty sure I want to join them.They have mostly technique lessons and push syllabus work nearer the exam.Although the exercises weren't very difficult,I found myself working up a sweat just half an hour into class. The studio was also non air-conditioned, which I personally preferred it compared to air-con ones. Scientifically proven to be better for the body as well.

After the two hour class,we went to Nam Nam Noodle Bar for dinner at Plaza Sing. I finally tried Nam Nam and I found the soup quite salty and was really thirsty after that.I'm not sure if it's just that outlet or they standardize their soup to be that way.

Uninspired.

Hei.

It's been awhile since I posted,yet again.There have been so many deadlines to meet and I can't wait for FYP presentation to finally be over this Saturday. Studying with my friends tomorrow so that's finally some exciting news besides school,work and assignments. On the side note,pretty worried for my NAFA applications because all the documents are not going smoothly. Anddd dance trial class soon with a friend of mine to join another Ballet school. Finally planned my getaways,can't wait to graduate and travellll ♥

Also, my new found love for soy chai tea latte.

Year End Holiday // Cambodia 2014

Hei hei!

Ohmygosh.It has been wayyy too long since I last posted.I have been terribly busy!Terribly busy doing nothing,that is. ;) Ever since my holiday started about two weeks back (and ends in less than a week's time), I have been relaxing a bit and also realizing the fact that exams are round the corner after 2015 kicks off. 

Usually, I go for year end holidays because my mum is busy with work during the year and can only take leave off during this period of time. So we went to Cambodia this year, and it was not just a holiday for me but also an eye opener and expanded my knowledge in the segment of World History.

Tried to take videos to compile them into a short getaway clip but my phone kept dying so it was pretty incomplete and I had to scrap that idea. Took lots of pictures instead. Enjoy (:

Almost didn't manage to get plane seats because of the overbooking but thankfully we did. The front counter lady was also very patient with us, since we were all upset when we heard we may not be able to board the plane.

Pardon me if I look horrid when I go on holidays!Comfort is #1 for me when it comes to travelling. I don't fancy dry eyes or blistered feet when I am on getaways.

Ankor Riviera Hotel, Siem Reap

Our tour was a mixed of free and easy, and on the first night of our arrival we had our own dinner at a place nearby the hotel.

Everyone's dishes and mine, fish soup of some sort. I have no idea what I ate but it was really good.

Saturday, 27th December 2014

Started our morning with a good breakfast and then off to Angkor Wat, one of the wonders of the world and a major tourist attraction in Cambodia. We spent most of our day there, followed by a short lunch and continued walking at Angkor Wat until evening before going for a massage and then to dinner.

Morning in Cambodia *.*

As mentioned earlier in this post, my phone constantly died on me so apologies if my pictures aren't in a very flow-y manner!This was on the third day, after breakfast, we were on our way to Tonle Sap Lake and the tour guide was telling us the history of Cambodia.

These are catfishes, which area bred to feed the crocodiles which were situated next to this farm.

After our visit to the lake, we went to a silk farm which also sold other Cambodian products before heading to lunch.. After which we had to take a coach to transfer from Siem Reap to Phnom Penh.

Monday, 29th December 2014

Arrived in Phnom Penh on Sunday night and had dinner before heading to Nagaworld hotel to rest. The next day, we headed to the Royal Palace before visiting a prison museum. It was then time for lunch before we shop shop shop!

Royal Palace of King Norodom Sihamony

In the comfiest pants I bought there!

I won't post any pictures of the prison museum because one, it was too graphic and two, I deleted them. It was truly upsetting and depressing to have them in my memory just because it was a genocide and innocent lives were killed. However, if you are interested in finding out more, you can search under the key words Pol Pot Regime or S-21.

Beard Papa's at Aeon Mall

Tuesday, 30th December 2014

We woke up slightly later since it was our last day in Cambodia. After breakfast as usual at the hotel, we headed back to Aeon Mall and also had our lunch there. After which, we went back to the hotel and got ready to check out before making our way to the airport and arrived back home in the night.
