Happy Turkey Week

Thanksgiving Break was awesome, not fruitful but relaxing..hehe..Apart from studying and rushing assignments, I was able to squeeze in 3 movies this week..hehe..I watched "Love Hurts", "2012" and "New Moon".. *dances* It was fun and definitely a break needed! I've been so stressed out recently with work and studies, not being able to balance everything I have on my plate. Maybe I have too much on my plate?...maybe..well, I truly pray I'll find that internship I want. It'll be a great experience for me to learn and meet people. oh well, I'll keep trying...

Anyways, I spent Thanksgiving at the Hoover's house again. Ronnie and Dana invited me over for "dinner" with their family and it was fun and memorable. We had so much food: turkey, ham, bacon, mashed potatoes with gravy, salad, casseroles etc..Their entire family was there, with 5 international students. My sister went with a host family since I thought it'll be better for her to go experience something without being introduced as "Sherrie's sister"..hehe..we chat and chat random topics at the dining table, which was quite entertaining..hehe..then we played "Mad Gab" and "outburst", which was fun. I had so much fun, competing with the other team of course..hehe.. *smiles*

On Black Friday, I decided that we need to go do some shopping. So, we woke up at 430am and went shopping at 530am at Rogers. hehe..sadly, the shops were not fully opened as advertised..to make it more interesting, it was near 0'C..the cold breeze was enough to make your hair stand. After walking around, I bought a pair of boots from Charlotte Russe..hehe..one of my favorite shops here (they always have my size! *grins*) Too bad sheryl couldn't find hers, so I decided to try our luck in Fayetteville. After 8 hours of shopping, we both bought a pair of boots and I got 2 blouses, Sheryl a t-shirt..the sales was not bad, but I can't wait for the after-Christmas sales..that'll be fun fun fun! *yay~~~*

Well, now that the break has come to an end, I have to go bury myself in my pile of books and notes..so bye for now..

Happy Turkey Week!

hi

¡ Hola chicos!

Sorry I haven't been updating..then again, now i wonder who ever reads my blog..lol..
anyways, life is hectic and routine-ish. Winter is almost here again..hehe..which means, out comes my winter clothes. ♥ That means my cute pair skinny jeans is out of my pile of "winter stuff".. ♥ Will be bundling up again just to keep me warm and cozy. Sunsets at 520pm each day, making my days shorter (not the dying way ok?) and as Sheryl puts it: "it's very depressing"...lol...however, that means i wake up at 6am each day just to try to fall back asleep again...Miss Sunshine has to shine at me each day at 6am..oh,and the cold winter wind has already cut through my skin today, but surprisingly, it doesn't hurt as much as it used to. Maybe I'm getting use to being injured? (mostly paper cuts and bruises) haha..wonder what it would be like when we head North to the mountains during our winter break trip..poor Sheryl, she's wearing 5 layers of clothes already and it's only the beginning...so much for me wanting to go on an adventure. ☺

♥♥♥ STAY WARM,EVERYONE!!! ♥♥♥
As for those in Malaysia, don't stay too warm..it's hot enough there...lol...

♥♥♥
Next week's Thanksgiving week..yay!!!
couple of days off before the next wave of exams.
Till then..God Bless y'all.

i like this song.. esta canción se pega en mi cabeza ... =)

Life is getting so hectic right now, suffocating my life.
Everyday is the same routine: wake up, class, work, study, assignments/RSOs, meetings, sleep. Entertainment is no longer a normal part of my daily life. No more tv. No more movies. No more sports or piano or any music instrument. Just occasional youtube and pandora box.

*sigh*

I am not complaining but I do really miss those fun I had in my freshmen and sophomore years..movies and hanging out~~ things that seem far from my life right now. (yes, I know..I'm a junior now...) Studies are getting tougher by the day, more time is needed on each subject. And I have to admit, I have to work 200% more than I used to. As graduation approaches, I'm getting nervous. Will I get an internship or a job in this job market? I believe God will provide, but I can't help feeling so nervous right now...there's so much to do each day, so much to worry about and so much to think through. Feels like exploding..I can't wait for winter break to be here..then, I can relax a bit and find that balance in life again.

Please pray for me to get an internship/job.

Enjoy ♥ ♥

Oh, and this is my friend's brother..what do y'all think about his voice?

Fun Times

Here are 2 awesome videos I wanna share with everyone out there! Enjoy~~~

♥ My 22nd Birthday ♥

♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥
My 22nd Birthday was a surprising one! hehe, literally surprised!
My friends decided to throw me a surprise bday party at Logan's (coz I love the peanuts and bread they serve for FREE!) hahaha...So, after classes, I went to work at Housing and Bible study with Jac as I do on every other Fridays. After my Bible study, Jac sent me home and I got ready for dinner. My friend told me he was going to take me and my sister for dinner to celebrate my birthday and I said yes! (who says no to free dinner? haha) Then, things got suspicious when I saw Sheryl in a dress! she hardly ever wear dresses, and her excuse was "if i don't wear it now, i won't get to wear it since it will only get colder.." what kind of excuse is that? I mean, she's already freezing in the apartment, how am I to believe she'll be ok going out in a dress? anyway, I got ready and we headed out to Logan's.

The moment I stepped in, I saw the entire group of friends waiting for me..it was quite surprising! It was everyone I had met the entire day and yet they did not say a word. I saw Simon at work, Jac at Bible study, Paul at lunch etc...but it was really fun! We ate and chat and had lots of fun. Oh, and Lucas whispered to my ear "I have 2 surprises for you. One is what you hear on the speaker, 2nd one is coming..." haha..guess what was the 2nd surprise? They all had the staffs at Logan's to shout a "yee-hah" for me as a birthday gift. Oh, it was just so embarassing coz i had the entire restaurant looking at me...and Richard Tan had to add "oh, look! sherrie do get embarass..." ^_^" i'm not that muka tembok ok? or am i?

After dinner, we headed to Jac and David's house (I had no clue till Ashley bocor rahsia) for dessert and movie. We had homemade pulut hitam by David and Jac, followed by a super pretty 2 layered purple cake with butterflies! It was just the prettiest cake..my favorite color and picture.. =) I can't believe they went through all those trouble getting these done for me..it was awesome! the top layer was strawberry cake and the bottom was chocolate cake. Apart from it being too sweet, it was really nice. After eating more food, the Chuas had to leave because of Lucas's bedtime and the rest of us watched "No Reservation". (Jac remembered I wanted to watch that movie. =) ) It was a really good movie..with romance and comedy. hehe..

After all that, we went to FNL for free shirts and later to BBB with Ho, Albert, Joey and another guy whose name I forgot once again. BBB was not much fun coz' people were drunk and there were smoke everywhere..and my leg was hurting from the other day.

All said and done, we went home at 2am. This birthday was really awesome! I got matching earrings and necklace from Sheryl, a necklace from Johnny, hand lotion from Jac and David, a 4GB pendrive from Albert, Applebees gift card from Richard Wang and the weirdest stuff from Paul! Paul gave me a "New York Times" and "Miracle Whip". Apparently, it stands for extra knowledge and whip dressing for facial? hahahhaa.....I have interesting friends huh? But I thank God for them, they really made my birthday special. Thanks, guys!
