Why I love non-fiction..

(From thought catalog)

You tend to think, rightly or wrongly, that nonfiction simply makes you smarter because it expands your understanding of a real-world concept. Even when you maintain your skepticism, you become aware of an additional viewpoint of the world that you might have not known before.

Little nugget of inspiration

Thought of the day

"Not doing more than the average is what keeps the average down"

Hear me Roar!

I got the eye of a tiger

A fighter

Dancing through the fire

Cause I am the champion

And you're gonna hear me

ROAR!

My Leopard prints shoes! Haha a gift from Sisi.. Though I wished it had Tiger prints instead =p

P.S. My blog is not dead yet! *ROAR*

Space out

Space out:

to lose one's attention

to become distracted

to daydream

 

This seems to be what I wish to do most of the time... I need to clear a little space in my mind~ It's getting abit too cluttered..

 

 

Looking back...

The past few months went past with just a blink of the eye.. Unbelievable, unforgettable and indeed life-changing.. Feels like I'm suddenly forced to grow up, entering a new phase in life which I never knew I had the courage to.. But time and tide waits for no man.. The day will come when we all have to grow up~

Most people transit into married life easily (almost normally), moving out of their homes, and settling into routine work life again.. For me, it was an uphill task, it may seem laughable, but moving out of the home I love so much was extremely hard, letting go of things I'm used to was equally challenging.. but I'm glad I was able to eventually, with the support of my family and friends, and now working towards building a home with Mr Koh, beginning another chapter in life.. And for that, I'm proud of myself, and it also reminded me not to take the people and things I love for granted, and for the fact that I get to live and see the beautiful world everyday~ and indeed, I know I'm deeply loved and am very fortunate.. =)

I am now married and staying in a newly renovated unit that Mr Koh and I now call home too.. Our honeymoon in Europe was beautiful, so beautiful.. The breath-taking sceneries, the experiences and the memories will stay with me for a long time!

There were many other lifestyle changes that followed gradually, and I'm taking them as they come with an open heart..

Be brave WeiShi.. be positive, be strong!

The day I'll remember for as long as I live

Our beautiful honeymoon in Europe

The now-familiar sight

 

The Lim's Family Portrait!

Been very busy with renovation and wedding preparation lately.. Omg we only have 2 weeks left, don't even dare to think of the things which are not done.. Really busy and tiring, I see dark circles and wrinkles creeping in.. Age must be catching up with me.. Yikes!

But I still need to keep my blog alive! Haha.. With a simple post to welcome the weekend~ Our Family Portrait has arrived! And it's safely back at home.. Haha!

Now the 林家 Family Portrait (fresh from the oven) is hanging nicely at our living room! =)

New addition!

My dear family~

 

 

Sisi's convocation & Family photo-taking

The baby at home has finally graduated! =)

I think my folks been waiting for this day, and are very happy that all their kids have finally finished their studies (the traditional route - don't think anyone is intending to further their studies in the near future).. Haha!

I'm very proud of my Sisi too! A double major graduate.. The smartest of the 3 rascals at home~

A 'Sisi-feeling-proud" moment.. Haha

Reminded me of my NTU days, short 3 years but everyday seemed like fun to me! There was never a dull day as I recall =) I was not very active in school, just the average student who goes to classes diligently.. Haha.. With a cup if tea/coffee in hand whenever I go for lectures... Shioks! Sometimes mac breakfast too.. The 4 hr journey to-fro school journey from home was unforgettable... But thankfully I had my creative MP3 (that's an antique now!) with me as I mug away or nap on the long train rides.... Time flies~

6 years later, I returned to Nanyang Auditorium for my Sisi's convocation.. Nanyang Auditorium is also used as an examination venue during examination periods.. Haha.. All the memories - my friends and I feeling stressed and jittery while waiting for the exams to start outside the Audi... Last min cramping info into our brains~ I'm kinda miss exams... Haha

Enough of the recollections..

Now it's my Sisi's turn!

My Sisi is a graduate!

Chaotic.. But happy faces everywhere

Everyone wore happy faces~ all the new graduates scrambled about taking pictures with the friends and family.. They must be excited, eagerly waiting to prove themselves and to carve out a career in their respective fields (I think).. The world is your oyster - chase for your dreams~

Chaotic.. But happy faces everywhere

Posing with our school's name

Fast forward 2 weeks later... We arranged for a family photo taking with Serangoon broadway~ haha.. I know my folks have waited very long for this too.. Haha
