2017 Singapore F1 Night Race (OneRepublic!)

Hmm before September ends, lemme just pop back here to update this dead blog I almost forgot about (coughs). Kindly note that the event in this post happened like two weeks ago. Updating late because my lazy ass was too busy rolling around in bed doing nothing (Well in my defence, I was swamped with school assignments and work too!!)

Last year as I was browsing my Instagram feed looking at all the photos of acquaintances attending F1 and enjoying the event, I told myself that I will definitely check out F1 the next year. Even though I know nuts about racing, all the hype makes me interested. In addition, I had previously worked outside the F1 venue as a surveyor for 3 consecutive years prior, so yea, curiosity really builds up over the years haha.

All is great this year, I got to attend F1! Wheeee.

Starting the evening with a good meal :-) Ehhh, some salted egg seafood fried rice special, if I recall correctly. Just when I thought the salted egg fad is over, all these salted egg flavoured menu continue to pop up everywhere I go. Maybe it isn't a mere fad after all... hmm how formidable.


Aaaaand here.... my pretty F1 pass! Kind of upset that I lost it because it could have been a good keepsake :'(










The cars went by super fast! It was also kinda funny how people were trying to take selfies with those racings cars zooming by, it's almost like a challenge haha.



The crazy crowd waiting for OneRepublic...





Awesome performances! So glad I saw OneRepublic, really love their songs! :')


Faded temporary tattoo the next morning #cheapthrills haha.

Well, adios for now.

Where can I go, to sing and be happy

I started this blog to write! To!! Write!!!! But I am still overflowing with words simply because I am too lazy to type my thoughts out. Hopefully, I'll find the time and motivation to properly update this blog soon. I have a little too much to complain sometimes, not sure if they'll be appropriate but yupppp.

Meanwhile, I am (kind of) proud of these photos I took at work:






Also, here are my 战利品 (loots) from KBS Music Bank World Tour in Singapore on Friday! No, I didn't pay three hundred bucks and attend the concert. Still not sure if I still be sad about it or not because while I didn't have a wonderful experience like the concert attendees, I am not short of three hundred like the rest hmm. Okay excuse me while I try to make myself feel better.

Yea but anyway, I just couldn't stop myself from joining the hype with all the merchandise sellers and fansite giveaways. Went a little crazy my wallet started cursing at me. You, reading this right now, must be judging me huh. That is if anyone is even reading this at all (hah). Even so, isn't the joy of "chasing" celebrities part of youth? Maybe one day I'm gonna look back and be so embarrassed by the younger me, but right now, I'm just gonna indulge myself more and enjoy the fun of being smitten by *coughs* my boys.

Sunday Swelters

Tried BARI-UMA today! Had quite a high expectation because my friend has been saying good words about it. To my disappointment, the ramen was really salty. Okay just look at my blog title - I love salty food (haha), and even I found the ramen especially salty. Well, but we were probably just unlucky. According to my friend their ramen isn't salty like the ones we had today, so... may go back and try again someday. Like, it wasn't that bad, just that it was a bit tad too salty. If they had toned it down for my bowl of ramen today, I probably would have love it (?).

That said though, the char siew was really good! I really hate it when the ramen is all good but when I get to the meat it's just downright disappointing. I have had some in which the char siew just had to look and taste like a lame rubbery piece of fat instead of the juicy char siew it should be. But yea, the char siew at BARI-UMA is great!

Felt like 38°C

Tried prawning for the first time ever yesterday! It was an interesting experience, the feeling when you manage to catch a prawn is just thrilling. I guess I can kind of understand why fishing is a hobby for some now. Though I probably won't do it again unless persuaded, because I felt bad witnessing the struggles of those prawns as they fight for their lives after getting caught.

It's sort of relatable - we're all like those prawns. In life, when all we want is just survive and enjoy but shits hit us in the face. Sometimes we fight and win. But other times, it's just useless, no matter how much we struggle. Damn this is getting emo.







いい天気だね。

A new episode

Just an update here, I will be starting a new internship tomorrow! I'm filled with uncertainty and nervousness, but at the same time I'm excited about it. Here's to hoping that things would go well. Just ended a seven-month internship less than two weeks ago (it was a really, really long journey which had felt like it was never going to end), which makes me question myself on whether I am really up for a new role so fast... But it's a good opportunity for me to gain more exposure, so...

Not sure whether I am really overloading myself with a new internship, together with a competition I am in the midst of, plus the upcoming school semester. Also signed up for a singing club yesterday because I missed my choir days.

Hopefully when I read this entry in the future I would get to reminisce and laugh at how I was so unsure because the future me knows everything is just gonna be great. All the best to myself!!

Good flavours

I used to blog frequently, like aeons ago. There was even this period of time in which I updated my blog daily - can you even believe it. Not sure how I did that, but now looking back, man was I focused on keeping the promise (that I made with myself on a whim) to do so!

Really miss having a proper outlet to rant about things on my mind, which is why I decided to create another blog. Properly, this time. Hopefully it doesn't sink anytime soon. Albeit already having a Twitter account where I pour my most random thoughts out on, 140 characters in a post just isn't enough I guess. This will be my main platform for communicating my inner thoughts and reflections, along with more rants acting as a tool for brushing up my writing skills.

That's all. Let's see how it goes. またねー
