And it's yet another Friday. The weeks are honestly flying by, but I like that. I want February 2013 to come around sooner, for obvious reasons. But I don't want to just sit around and mope, I want to enjoy all these days leading up till then; after all, I'm only 21 once. And I am enjoying myself, trying to make full use of my days (but there are days that I can't help but just want to procrastinate and do nothing at all lol). The best thing of all is, I can tell that psychologically, I am improving, I am soooo much better than I was this time last year. I am no longer paranoid, I don't get depressed as much anymore, and even when I do, it's mild, something that I can keep under control and not let it affect my moods. My emotions are not as turbulent and unstable like before, I don't see things like food and people in extremes anymore, and as such, my relationships with them both have improved so much. With food, I no longer classify foods as "good" and "bad", I no longer beat myself up if I binge on "bad" foods, I no longer starve myself on "good" foods only. And with people (friends), I don't see them as "good" or "bad" anymore, and my views of them don't suddenly change at the drop of a hat, like they do before. Really, my emotions and outlook towards everything used to be a yo-yo from good to bad and back, changing constantly, which made me paranoid about everything. And then you add depression into the mix. But I'm doing so much better now, when I reflect on last year and my mental instability then, I can honestly see what I need to change about myself.

I've got nothing planned for the weekend, I'll probably just stay at home and chill... I wish :( I have to catch up on my school work, I'm about one week behind. Ahhhh, med school. I wish I have the push to study though, I feel so unmotivated about school work, and yet I know I need to study. Haha, the paradox of it all. My USMLE First Aid Step 1 book came in the mail 2 days ago, that's like my push to really really work hard now. And yet here I am, blogging! Plus, cardstore is having their free card promotion again, so all of last night and today, I've been designing cards online and sending them to people in USA. Babyboy got one as well, haha yeah, just ONE. The last time I sent him like 4? I'm not gonna spoil him this time round! But I've sent 7 so far, you can tell I'm really taking advantage of their free card promotion! :p I introduced it to Geraldine as well, and that crazy girl stayed up till 5AM this morning designing cards for her bf! Siao (crazy)! I think she ordered like, 6? But the promotion really is very good, cardstore.com, if you're reading this, I LOVE YOU ♥

Aslam came around just now, and left us with a whole box of Portuguese egg tarts :) yumyum! He was in Portugal the whole of last week, on some Interventional Radiology convention, and he came back last night, with a souvenir for us ♥♥♥ Haha. The egg tarts were superrrrr sweet though, whoever baked it has a VERY generous sugar hand, lol. But it was really nice and thoughtful of him to do that for us though.

My Friday night supper :)

Okay, I'm just blabbering here, I don't even know what the point of this post is. Nights everyone :)

Hello, I'm Mylene.

I love God, my family, my close friends, chocolate, Nutella, Nugatti, yam paste, Nonya kueh, baking, desserts, crunchy peanut butter, trying out new food places, books, travelling, airplane food, snail mail, vintage anything, medicine, wearing blood-red clothes, The Desiderata, stickers, hearts, making cards and origami, watching comedies, reading mystery/detective novels, playing mystery/detective games, mocha, yoghurt with fruits and muesli, dogs, quirky bags, soft & fluffy towels, pretty lingerie, Christmas, heels I cannot walk in, polka dots, smiles.

I try not to hate on anyone or anything because it's a waste of my time and energy. If I don't like it, I'll either try to change it or just ignore it.

I'm trying to live my life to the fullest, and be the best person that I can be.
