Healthy lifestyle

I don't know how did I even start looking into living healthy,
let's just say it is because of Sjana,
she is like a living example of how that positive lifestyle gives you a positive mindset and everything.
Its amazing,
then I started looking at Earthyandy's instagram as well.
Its just very amazing.
Hawaii seems like paradise.

I just hope Singapore can have an environment like that too.
Organic, natural and all.
Alright we definitely have to import our organic food.
But we can have a mini hawaii too!
We are an island for god sake.
We are in the tropics.

Ir doesnt make sense that being a clean and green city sometimes.
Our fruits are expensive cause we import.
Our organic foods are even more expensive.
Being a student and having a family that sees no point in eating healthy,
its quite difficult for me to hang onto this idea.
No money
no time.
because we are so busy with work and school and all
its pretty impossible to exercise or prepare our own food.
I have time now simply because I am having a break
Cant imagine how is it gonna be like when school starts.

But yeah its the food that makes us who we are too.
Singapore local delights (ohkay we are a food paradise cos we have food from all over the world, so our local delights are pretty much, everything) are not exactly the healthiest things on earth.
Its easy to imagine Japan going all organic and healthy but,
can you imagine Taiwan?

Yeah I know you can always order organic food to be delivered to your doorstep but the carbon footprint part is, disturbing.
And you can always - I don't know, I admit singaporeans are a slave to efficiency and convenience. We wouldn't think twice to pack food in styrofoam boxes despite the
1 toxins
2 one time usage
3 contribution to trash

for a few minutes of time saved.
Is it seriously that difficult to wash your own dishes?

Its the little things, and the everyday things that we do that makes the difference.
Yes whatever I am about to say is gonna sound rather contradicting but.
Because Singapore is small, it would not be that difficult to start something here.
And we are rather influential on the global arena.
I mean look at how huge the hooha was when Mr LKY left us.
Being small and influential I don't see how, is it impossible that we cannot implement things that could inspire others to do the same.
Like,
eliminating usage of plastic containers, styrofoam boxes, plastic bags and encourage people to bring their own bags and containers.

I dont know
maybe its just me hoping the world would overlook economic gains for our homeland.
I know it sounds stupid but I guess.
One can always dream

Healthy living

This idea is so so so apt.
Well since I am going to study something environment related, its quite close to healthy living?
Since healthy living is pretty much living as naturally as possible. That is, minus our sedentary always sitting down and stuff.
The idea of healthy eating actually stem from having good skin.
I never had sensitive skin, but recently its getting more sensitive and stuff.
I am naturally dark skinned, so I get tanned real easily since young.
But recently I actually got sunburnt WHUT.
Like for the first time in my life I had a sunburn, MY SKIN WAS PEELING.
and I was sensitive and stuff.
Its just weird.
I dont know what happened to my skin and I was utterly bewildered and upset.

So I switched to using Hada Labo as my daily day and night moisturizer, then after that I started getting like the day emulsion, recently I bought the SHA cleanser and its bb cream.
I seriously, absolutely love hada labo. HAHAHA

ANYWAYS,
So i started on this healthy living journey,
and basically doing things I used to do. I pretty much forget how much satisfaction those activities provided.
Like for instance, going out to exercise as a family was a weekly affair.
However in my teenage years it seemed to diminish completely which was just, sadddd.
But now that I am doing it again, running miles and miles with my daddy every weekend, it felt so so great.
So yeah
So many books, so much knowledge,
but it all boils down to whether you want to change your lifestyle or not.
Being slim, healthy, toned is a way of life.
Its not for an occasion, or for someone.
Its for yourself.
I was glad I picked up yoga.
I was inflexible as hell since young but now,
I can almost do a split already.
At the age of 19.
When I cant even reach my toes since like, forever.
Maybe cos I was a muscular girl since young, Im not even kidding when I say I cant reach my toes when I was say, 7.

BUT YEAH.
My point its never too late, as it is never too early.
I don't even know when did I start getting the idea of eating healthy, eating healthy and all.
Maybe it started with Sjana Earp.
But nah I started following her since more than a year ago,
I guess its just I saw the light.
HAHAS
And having reaped benefits from it,
you only want to continue to thrive on this.

Binge drinking, eating, partying all night.
Yeah sure do those, you have to live while you're young right?
Just don't do it too often.
Be aware of what you are putting inside your body,
and make the choices you deem as right,
and make choices like, climbing the stairs rather than taking the lift, standing rather than sitting, keeping your back straight and not slouch, NOT touching that processed food.
Choose fruits and veg,
Choose organic (when you can)

HAHAHA. yeaps I am preaching healthy living, plus save the earth. its always the little actions that count.

I was just listening to songs on bus and the feelings came. Am I really ready for a relationship? Am I ready to bare my heart for someone I dont even know if is staying in my life? Am I reading too much into this? I don't know cos its just scary. Making yourself completely vulnerable to someone. It was chinese songs that killed me completely. I was fucking crying on bus. Its that fear of losing someone so so important, that makes you want to end things with him. Its the fear that is making you suffocate. Its difficult to understand but I just did. You have no idea how tough is it. At all. No idea at all. Its such a weird emotion its difficult to describe. Thats why its impossible to feel that when youre with him. But you feel it all the time when youre not with him. It sucks. Like just yesterday I was having such a great time with him and today, I am feeling like shit. Maybe I am shit. Its fucking scary how I am texting him all bubbly, when I am feeling all these right now. But I guess cos of this fear, I have to hold on to him tighter. And cherish every single moment together.

Social Media

You know the thing about social media, it feels like everything is a competition. Maybe I havent posted in a while, the moment I do it felt weird. I kept checking my number of likes, afraid that people wont actually like my post and afraid that this post will lose out to my older posts in terms of likes. Its so superficial I feel so, disgusted by myself. My instagram is a place where I dont showcase my real life, like what I really am, who I really am. Its weird how it shows fragments of what I am, yet isnt representative of who I am. Its such a weird feeling and combination, I feel like quitting social media but, does that mean the end of my social life? The answer is yes. Because you cant keep up with trends, you're kept out of the loop, You can't join in conversations, nor find interesting common topics. Its horrible to know that people gossip as a form of socialising. I dont like it but I still do it. Why? Because I want to be kept in the loop.
Disgusting. I am so disgusting. Its so shallow yet I still do it.

You know like how you screwed something up and, no matter what you do it doesnt make any difference and you just keep replaying the scenes in your head, hoping you said this instead of that. Maybe the consequences were not that major last time, or maybe it matters a lot to me this time. I don't know because I just cant stop thinking about it I feel like im going crazy. I wished my boyfriend is here like right beside me right now so that I can be stablised but. No. I realise I dont mind being pillars for other people but I mind asking for support from others. Its like too huge a favour? I dont know I really dont know. Thats why I blog I guess.

School 2015.

You know I have been watching kdramas since, around a year ago. And there are just some dramas which you feel nothing, and some which you love so much. I loved school 2013. That bromance - I mean, bond between the 2 guys are just. WOWW. Maybe its because Im still a student, its more relatable. But its was amazing. Maybe I should look for my old post on it and upload it here. HAHAs. & School 2015 hasnt been a disappointment. Well obviously korea is promoting their flower boys more than their girls, but thats beside the point. The plot is kinda cliche, but not at all uninteresting. Only 6 episodes into the drama and I can't wait to finish it already. Pretty sure that bitch bully will get what so gets, and that the whole truth will be revealed and yeah. Some parts of the plot is pretty much, fixed (not even predictable). Welcome to kdramas. But, y'know the difference between korean and american productions is that korean productions focus on sincere feelings. Well there could be sex involved but unlike american productions, it isnt revolved around sex. Thats what is different. I am not saying which productions are better it just depends on which you prefer. Well, I won't stop watching all the american movies because they are pretty good, nevertheless. And always the hot topic.
OMG I JUST FINISHED WATCHING EP 8 I CANT CALM DOWN WHY YOU CUT AT THE CLIMAX. Han Yi An figured. Go Eun Byul admitted. And Gong Tae Kwang has to come and andbiwvshsis UGH.
ANYWAYS. I totally didnt expect Eun Byul to come back, but it was so, so powerful. WOOOHOOO. Like WOWZ. And I was really shipping Yi An & Eun Byul, Tae Kwang & Eun Bi. BUT DAMN IT HAN YI AN. WHAT A HUGE DISGUSTING PLOT TWIST BUT. LIKE OMGOMGOMG. Now Idk who to ship. HAHAHAS. WAITING FOR EP 16 DILIGENTLY. 

Ohkay it ended. All in all an interesting drama. OHYEAHHHH. HAHAHAS.

Vices.

You know how you always blame other stuff or people but never yourself, but seriously. Today is really, such, an unlucky day. I mean its partly my fault, for leaving house a tad too late and well, lady luck isnt shining on me today. So I was late. Rather late in fact. For an interview. So thats whats the bad feeling was LOL.
But yeah sometimes some things are out of our control, but deep down you know you have a problem as well. You have always been blaming other people and things and when it happens to happen on an unlucky day, you get angry because you are unlucky. You know what I mean?
Maybe you should reflect and kick this habit away once and for all.
You cant always have lucky days come onnnn.

So yeah gonna work on how to quit being late.
Alright learning how to be punctual at this age lol.
Its never too late right?

1. Plan
Plan your outfit, pack your bag, plan your schedule, everything on the night before. This is a great habit to cultivate. Give yourself ample travelling and preparation time when you have major event coming up.

2. Do as planned, keep track of time always.
Don't plan and not follow it, & don't do extra stuff that you didn't plan. Once you plan everyday you come to know how long you take to do things and it will get easier as days go by.

3. Don't plan to be on time.
Plan 15 min earlier for every event. & more when you need to locate places you never been before.

4. Relearn your time
Take note of how long you do things, check the time everyday.

Thats all for now. Let's do this.

True Friends.

I realise, the best thing you can give a friend, or anyone that you truly love and care about, is support. Advices are for completely clueless people who are searching for answers. And god knows everyone have answers in their hearts already. Our loved ones are simply looking for people who will support them, as they believe we are people who understand, and have faith in their choices. Of course we do need to drag them up the righteous path by showing them whatever path they intend to take could possible lead to. But if they still stuck by their path, we respect that decision. We respect that decision, thats all they need. We need not help them on that path, we need not feel sorry for seeing them fail. But we do need to bring them back up when they do.
