MID MONTH



June was pretty much a fulfilling month.
From mugging for my paper, to settling new accounts at work, travelling to Hong Kong, and catching up with friends.

Had Box n Sticks with the usuals on Wednesday, and met up with Syariah & Anna just this evening over PasarBella.

It's always nice knowing how friends around me are getting their BTOs, settling down with their partners, and how all these little steps allow them to grow together with their other half as a person.
While some others talk about work, stress levels, and finding new jobs.


And yes, Night Owl Cinematic: Food King came to Poh Cheu just yesterday!
Ryan told my mum he has been eating our kueh since secondary school and yesterday, they were there to film for next Friday's YouTube video.
Can't wait to see how many stars we are rated by them :)

Half a year is down in a blink of an eye.
Think back what I have achieved and sometimes I hope time could pass just a little faster.
So many things the future Jared wants to achieve and experience.
I can't wait.

HONG KONG 2017






Landed in Macau on Tuesday evening and met up with the family for dinner.
Satisfied my Lord Stow's cravings (yasssss), visited St. Paul's & Senado Square, had the localised dimsum for the first time.
Monsoon season honestly is the worse time to travel tho. 






This was where all our dreams came true!
After returning back to HK, we headed to Disneyland the next day and man, it was so so fun!
Managed to cover all the rides (that we wanted) and went on twice for the Star Wars roller coaster.
The heat didn't stop us from running around the parks, catching shows, waiting for the night carriage performance and camping for the fireworks.
The pictures doesn't do justice for the spectacular performance we had.






Over the next couple of days, we visited some of their attractions such as the Lantau Island, The Peak - Trick Eye Museum and Madam Tussauds, a few night markets and the nearby shopping centers.
Glad everyone had their fair share of fun at the attractions and Grandpa was so enthusiastic at the Trick Eye!
Tried Australian Dairy Company for the first time, food was okay but I dislike the locals, their attitude sucks.

Nonetheless it was a good 6 days breaks before heading back to work tomorrow.
I can foresee piles of work waiting for me already.

Here's to the next vacation.

TAX OUT


Happy to say that, T A X is O V E R!

I have started counting down to 1.15pm today since 2 days ago and I cannot be happier.
On my way to the exam venue this morning I had some severe tummy ache, goosebumps all over (it lasted from Raffles Place to Jurong East by the way) 😰
I thought I was gonna die (of anxiousness), on one hand I tell myself I can't fail (cos the school fees costs $2k+ haha), on the other I wasn't at all confident.

Thankful for this happy/annoying/lucky pill who kept me going all the way till before I went in the exam hall.
Now that exam is over, I have 3 months worth of freedom and it's time for a trip!

Counting down to 1 week before HK, 1 day to meeting my girls and 1 hour to meeting H.

So blessed.
