It's me ♥
yx guo
born on 121290, entered into this complex yet intriguing world,
who can't deny that i have some traits of a saggitarius,
exploring and slowly uncovering parts of me & the world that i was once oblivious to,
but still enjoying & learning how to live my life to the fullest with optimism(:

one of the nicer and closest fireworks i've seen
on torchlight procession night, just before new year's eve




















I know im so backdated in updating stuffs
but since i cant concentrate on my work for a whole day
maybe it's a better idea to come and revive this dead space.
it's slightly more than midway past jan
new year came and past so fast
but probably cause jan was a really a busy month for me.
slightly after hogmanay, drama happened
then it was time to pack and leave for london
finally after months, i get to meet up with friends again!
the main highlights of the trip were the company, visiting stamford bridge & harry potter
im still blown away by how much details and hardwork were put into the whole harry potter series
& butter beer tastes awesome!
also, the thought of having visited Chelsea's home ground still makes me slightly excited inside
I can't explain why, but it was just so cool
Though i don't really fancy watching soccer & know nuts about the team
but seeing what goes on behind the scenes of one of the more famous team is just so thrilling
if given another chance, i would'nt mind visiting asernal or man utd's home ground
london is an awesome place, but i would rather stay in edinburgh
maybe because london's lifestyle is a wee bit similar to singapore
came back to parcels containing my black leather jacket & an s3 flown all the way from singapore <3

After london trip, it was back to school for a week
to rush out 800 words of my dissertation for a meeting
then friends came over to edinburgh
had a wee bit space to breathe afterwards but before i knew it,
it's time to pack for iceland!
Iceland was breathtakingly awesome, other than the horrible wind that could have blown me away
The main purpose was to catch northern lights
but because of the horrible weather, it was not really nice
however main highlight of the trip would definitely be horse riding!
golden circle and cycling tour were good as well.
love the landscape of the country, enjoyed listening to the history behind it
the people were really nice & the food is tasty, albeit expensive
would really love to go back to the country again, but it's undeniably pricey.
after coming back from iceland trip, it's time to start working really hard
afterall, that's what im here for

& if everything goes on the right track
i'll be volunteering in english classes for international students in church every mon
no idea why but i just had this feeling inside of me that tells me to do it
i guess it fits well since im an international student myself and i would understand them better
well, cross fingers that everything will go smoothly

And well, remember the plan i was talking about previously?
i've searched through websites, considered the price, emailed many organizations
still unsure of which one to choose but all i know is that i filled in an application form for the one in school
& ive got accepted to do volunteer work in moldova in june
i was actually considering doing clinical placement in moldova but it would cost two times more than if im to do volunteer work
& if i choose to accept the volunteer work one instead, i dont get to stay with a host family as well ):
the actual, more exciting & most ideal plan was to do volunteer work in mexico
i get to stay with a host family, fly to the states for the first time in my entire life by myself & i get to learn basic Spanish
but oh well, with the recent shooting case and the safety in states, my mum would never ever allow me to travel there alone
the second most ideal place was korea
but the time frame doesn't fit into the one im looking for
so the next best option was moldova since i had to take into consideration the time period, price and the aim of the trip
i'm only left with 3 more days to decide if i want to take up the offer
any advice anyone? :/
(actually, i wonder if there are any souls still visiting this dead space)

I'll try to do a short and sweet recap of 2011 in my next post
since i realized i have not sat down and reflected on the past year
it's a good thing to do isn't it?
to see how last year have went & setting new goals to make this year a more awesome one

Things weren't as what i expected when i came
but i learnt to adapt
either i accept things that i can't change
or change myself to adapt to it
it was not easy but i guess i managed to come to terms with it
i guess that's what im slightly better than others at doing
that i might not be able to fully understand why someone else might not be able to achieve it
ok, maybe i do understand. but i dont understand the whole drama that's going on
call us stupid or idiots, but we really do not know what went wrong
it's true that it's difficult to read people
especially if one keeps quiet and suddenly just explode
how do we freaking know what went wrong?
im not psychic, i dont read minds
i can sense a tense atmosphere but i cant explain what's going behind minds

glad for the short getaway
but ive not finished my work yet T_T
how do i churn out 800 words with the limited articles i have & a presentation within 4 days of travelling?
