2022 New Years Resolution!

Happy New Year Guys!!

What another Year, as one would hope each year to be better but as usual lots of stuff seems to cockblock or at least keep on happening haha 

My brother seem to contract COVID this week- Now that is new!- What a way to start off the new year haha - awaiting PCR test as I type! 

Enough excuses, I do not want to let that or any other things stop me especially writing or doing this! 

I've always seem to stop Mid-track or like cba to say/do what I want to do. 

(I have a dissertation that I must focus as we speak!!!)

Hence why instead of my 80 New Years Resolution that I did previously, Here's the link down below:

https://chi-chic123.blogspot.com/2019/01/happy-new-year-2019-resolution.html 

 I shall only perhaps do like in form of 5 Goals for now~ probably much more realistic and also (as you know I am now officially 25 haha)

~✨~✨~~✨~✨~~✨~✨~~✨~✨~~✨~✨~~✨~✨~~✨~✨~~✨~✨~~✨~✨~~✨~✨~

1. Let's really start the Bare Minimum 😂- Let's try not to Contract COVID!! 

1.1 Survive!! Like Mentally. Not just Physically haha

(((ok now everything after this is somewhat maybe optional; it also relates to the below video --)))

2. Expressing myself -> I seems to be very bad at expressing my ideas and thoughts. How do I improve this?  (Blog/Journal/Diary?)

3. Be more impulsive/ decisive for good reasons (Think of this like the CD register; gotta do it now! ) 

4. Understand that when you are in a relationship- know that do you like the YOU that is in the relationship!(((That is the key point!!)))

5. Stop comparing yourself with others especially within relationships in general (Friends/Best Friends) 

~✨~✨~~✨~✨~~✨~✨~~✨~✨~~✨~✨~~✨~✨~~✨~✨~~✨~✨~~✨~✨~~✨~✨~~✨~

Additionally, Today in this post I shall include a video which is starring Jenn!

OMG, do you not know much this video resonate me haha ; When she uploaded this that is when I felt like she truly is a star. She hit all the key point and is so relatable haha

As in these Questions are literally what I question to myself almost everyday haha (especially the one with the if the relationship I'm in is a waste of time now quite recently) 

And so I shall embedded this video here, as not only as reminder for myself but also for anyone who does read this blog post of mine hehe

Hope you like it and enjoy! 

Happy NEW Year! 2022 + Reflect/Recap of previous years especially 2021

 OMG can you believe it's been three years since I have last made my New Years resolution?!

I am quite shock how the times fly by real quickly especially with that New Years resolution to which I believe it was in 2019 since I last did one haha

So, the juicy part- Was there any progress you may ask? Well as much as it is quite hard to believe, there are some it seems! Out of 80 I think I mostly achieved 20, which is still progress on the bright side but knowing me my pessimistic self will say that is like 1/4....of the whole friggin 3 years!! Hahahaha Not complaining but just having a bit of laugh is all. 

I really ought to change my pessimistic way of thinking hehe

Anyways, What were the progress I have made so far? Sadly I haven't been keeping track of these goals which ironically was part of my new years resolution. That said, I think I have accomplished some as mentioned above. Here are the details below:

7) Keep all your great relationships

10) Catch yourself when your moods starts to go downhill and try to turn things around. Placebo thoughts

(This too, shall Pass!!)

11) Learn to recognise when you're having anxious thoughts

20) Spend time with Friends 

22) Be more thankful everyday

23) Seek Help

25) THIS YEAR, I SWEAR! I'M GOING TO LEARN TO COOK.

26) Give in to Cravings

33) Get a Job (Part-time/ Full-time)

37) Handle things as they come without worrying too much

38) Become better Adult

47) Speak in mostly Mandarin and Cantonese with my parents

50) Be more aware about tense muscles in my face.

51) Prioritise ergonomics so we can be less sore pls.

52) Be more aware about tense shoulders. 

55) I like the me recently that's been more impulsive/ definitive for good reasons. (i.e. "This really good ice cream place closes in 30 mins...If we all get in our cars right now, we can make it. LET'S DO IT... EVERYONE GO GO GO GO") More of that! :D

72) Stretch more often

77) Give my friends a lot of messages? Because who doesn't need a message?!

80) Keep supporting my k-pop and j-pop faves!! and to watch anime and/ or K-dramas- SUPPROT! Procrastination- Change that. 

February Update! + Pondering to change name of blog?

Hey hey,

A February update for once?! 😝 Now that's a first in nearly a decade!

Can you believe it 1 month already gone into 2019 and now it's February!....January is now gone in an instant like ↪ BAM!

Wouldn't say I'm glad January is over as there's more to come but I just want to say now, as bad as this may sound, I'm feeling thankful for the lessons of sadness/ anguish that has taught me especially for the past months or so. I don't think I have ever felt that these sort feeling before? Luckily they are slowly going down especially since Aunt Flo has just come to visit (I think this has probe the button hahaha) Um-hum.

So for that, I'm now feeling much better which in turn made me motivated by doing some revision (I know I know, This sounds lame towards the end but at least I feel like I'm on starting point? XDD)

To surprise things even more (and on the topic of a starting point), a food for thought!

I would like to announce that I'm thinking of changing this name of the blog. I feel that it's been a long time that I haven't been using this blog and that now, since I would like to try to keep it into a habit of running it from time to time, a new change and better fresh start would be nice (Since I think I did have quite a few alias 😅- I want to keep things quite consistent from now on😅 - I don't know how I end up with a few, but I can assure you it's only like what...2/3 names?! Despite of what may seem to be small number, I still would definitely want to try and clear things up hopefully by summer, I was hoping until Chinese New year / Lunar New year...But it's not possible at the moment.) !

Until then, It's unofficial- Watch this space! Hehe.

Haircut Selfie Dump 2K19

It's been a while! 👋 since.....

!! I had my haircut to the shortest- it's been like from Primary school to the beginning of Secondary School (like Year 7 or 8?) ahahaha

 (23/01/19)

How it all began~

Well lately there has been quite a lot of signs of short hair (starting from doing an anime selfie to watching a Chinese drama called: When we were young; the main actress had very short hair, to seeing my #10yearchallenge, and lastly seeing an actress named Lana Condor) So I decided to get myself a haircut! Zipppp! 💇
Additionally along with the news of a dear beloved teacher from my secondary school that had sadly passed away from a van accident and a new semester of 2nd year coming up, I just don't think I can take it any longer so that made me even more wanting to have my hair cut.

I want a change. And this was the first step.

Supposedly I wanted to get my hair short at around age 23/24, actually 25 or 30 years old. But due to as mentioned before, I just couldn't wait any longer...Beside I feel it is a good time to start being "matured"- Back then before I turned 22,  I was immature and even more so in the past so this was a good place to begin I felt.

Below are pictures of me (with and without long hair) and some cool anime selca?

Wow a pile of hair 

Thoughts for Pre 2019 (December 2018)...

Foolish as this may sound, I took most of her New Years resolution- she did 100 New Year resolutions (I feel that 80 is okay for now...)- and copied them here as they were relatable to me at the very least. 

I've highlighted them in Bold below to indicate that these are somethings that I will be/ and should be doing as if they are on my to do list! Lol. 

Also I made my own list far down in order of priority I feel so that I could go back to refer to at anytime (click on read more).
