THE CHILD'S EYE! 

Super overdue post! So sorry!

Basically i think this movie was scarier than i expected it to be.
Alot of people watched it before me, and i kept hearing comments about it.
Some said it was super scary, some said it wasn't.
Well, personally. I think.. it's scary at the beginning cause you don't know the storyline.
At the back, once you know the storyline, the whole movie just seems lame.
And the 3D, i think one part where the hand reached out for you was like super diao.

I swear the only attractive thing about this movie is Rainie Yang.
Omg, she so pretty can! And her acting's not bad.
But still feel abit weird watching her act in a horror movie. lol.
 I still think the dog in the movie is damn cute.

So.. i think i'll give the movie 3.5/5. Average average lor.
BECAUSE THE ENDING WAS LIKE... URGH.

After that, went to the Heeren to shop.
I found this shop, 'Fourskin', quite a nice place to shop in.
Huimin bought a jacket for 50% discount! Awesome or what.
And so many nice shoes. *spaazzzzz*
Didn't take much photos, reasons being my camera SUCKS ttm, and i lazy to do so.
Watch movie take what photo. Even photoshop cannot save the quality of my pictures.
 Okay, side track abit.


MINUTE MAID PULPY - TROPICAL!






I swear this is by far the most amazing drink i've ever tasted!
I simply love the taste! Like fruit punch.
Somemore it was freezing cold when i drinked it! 
Super amazing and perfect for a hot afternoon/ day at the beach!
Somemore the pulps not those super exaggerating type.
You drink down the pulp! I hate chewing pulps. 
Abit the disgusting ah.








So back to the main topic,

Anyways, after shopping, we went to Tampines 1!

I dreamed a dream.

Blogpost - Aspirations.

Many of us have dreams, aspirations and goals we want to achieve in life.
But what really is our true desire?

Many of us : Good grades, Money, Be happy.

Is that really a goal/dream that we only have?
For most of us at the age of 17, no one really knows what we want.
But we all have the dream inside of us.
One we may know that we may never achieve.
But it's nice to dream.
It's nice to believe it'll work out. Isn't it?


For me : i want to be a good photographer, good singer.
Be famous? who doesn't want to?
But many of us know it, it isn't easy to be that person who walks down the red carpet.
it isn't easy to achieve fame within one second. 
it isn't easy to get the single spotlight on center stage.
But that isn't going to stop most of us to give up our dreams and aspirations.

There are many success stories online about people who didn't give up on their dreams.
i'll give an example.

Too Short to Dance
By Nancy Coveney

Couldn't she smile? If only she were taller. They loved her kicking, but ... Like thousands of other young women, Twyla Tharp came to New York City with big dreams. The self-described Indiana farm girl enrolled at Barnard College to get a degree in art history. But her real passion, her real obsession, was dance.

To meet the college's phys ed requirement, she studied dance with the legendary Martha Graham and Merce Cunningham. Soon she was fitting her schoolwork in between two or three dance classes a day. A dream was born. But dance is not exactly a surefire, lifelong profession.

When she graduated in the mid-1960s, she auditioned for commercials and tried out for roles -- but she just didn't seem to fit in anywhere. She lacked the technical skills to be a ballerina, and she discovered in a big audition that she was too short for the Rockettes. They "loved my kicking and 52 fouett&eacutes on pointe," she wrote in her autobiography Push Comes to Shove, "but couldn't I please smile?" And she also learned she was "too small in every direction to work as a Latin Quarter show girl, but I still tried." And Tharp wondered, Will I ever be a dancer? Do I have any business dancing? The only way to find out, it seemed, was to form her own troupe and create her own style of dance.

For five long years, Tharp and her troupe practiced virtually every day in the basement of a Greenwich Village church. Sometimes the janitors had to "throw them out" on Sunday morning. They worked for little pay and almost no recognition. Constantly, Tharp asked herself, Do you want to do this, or don't you?

Forty years later, after choreographing over 100 dances on Broadway and in movies like Hair and Ragtime, after winning the National Medal of the Arts in 2004, Tharp still asks herself that question. And the answer is -- yes.

(there are more stories about how people achieved their dream)

a girl who felt that she was too short to dance.
had doubts in herself. she wanted to be a dancer.
she tried and look where this dream brought her. 
She has a wikipedia page too, you can see all her achievements on the page.
it's alot. seriously.

Sometimes, it takes that little courage to try and pursue your dreams.
I guess i haven't found it yet.
Maybe in a few years time? I'm not sure.
These stories make me feel motivated, but i guess when the time comes, it'll come.

"The only thing that will stop you from fulfilling your dreams is you."
- Tom Bradley


how true.
I had no idea what to write for this topic. but i guess, through the process of writing this,
i've quite alot of inspiration, and more determination. 
Anything can happen.
Maybe, someday, it'll happen to you, me, or even your close friends.
Don't stop believing. Never ever.
