Day 01- A recent picture of you and 15 interesting facts about yourself

15 interesting facts

1. I bring my phone in when I shower - not because I'm hiding something, but that I need to listen to music whilst showering.
2. I hardly ever answer my phone 'cause a) it's nearly always on silent and b) it's never really with me. Apologies to those who are trying to contact me :(
3. Never been clubbing.
4. Haven't even tasted alcohol of any sorts.
5. Lose sleep over really trivial things easily. 
6. Sometimes I over analyse a situation, and get disappointed because it's not the way I want it to be.
7. I still get nagged to bed at 11:00-11:30 nearly every night. Sigh at mum. But she is only caring about my health, so no hard feelings there :)
8. Rain was my first real love.
9. I don't open up easily.
10. It takes me about 1 hour 30 - 40 min to get to uni
11. My fingers are always, ALWAYS cold in winter. Gloves don't help :(
12. Would love to cosplay as anime character... or a random japanese school girl :D
13. I can do nothing but watch asian dramas all day - from morning to night.
14. I like to take photos of everything and anything. They're memories I tell you! 
15. Fascinated with asian pop culture.

Day 02- The meaning behind your Blogspot name

Unbreakable ties, how did I come up with it? Fact is, I didn't. Christine did. Before Unbreakable Ties we both had out own individual blogs. It was not until one day in June 2008 Christine suggested we join forces and conquer the blogging world. She instantaeously came up with this name, probably due our relationship as sisters being really unbreakable. We are genetically bound, yet at the same time, although we share the same DNA, we're more like best friends who share everything with each other. We both know each others good and bad points, we know that we don't have to impress one another and we know that we can be as goofy and stupid as we want - that's our unbreakable tie.

Day 03- A picture of you and your friends


This is a while back... last year sometime. But it's good to know that I still feel close to these two :)

Day 04- A habit that you wish you didn’t have

I don't know if this is considered a habit, but I know I do it so often that it annoys my own mental health. Thinking too much. I know I do think alot, about things that happened, that could've happened, that should've happened. Probably think about everything that I shouldn't care about. Maybe that's why I don't get over things easily like most people. However, in the end, I do realise that some things just need to be let go. Just that I need to do it the hard way :(

Day 05- A picture of somewhere you’ve been to

The busy streets of Hong Kong.


Day 06- Favorite super hero and why
I remember back in primary school we had to fill out these profiles and one of the questions asked was this exact one. It was hard for me to answer then... and it still is now. Truth is, I don't follow those super hero stuff... Batman, Spiderman, Wonder Woman etc, but if I had to choose, I'd say Spiderman. 'Cause nothing's sexier than having one of those upside down kisses in the rain LOL

The O.C: Seth and Summer's version

Day 07- A picture of someone/something that has the biggest impact on you

There are a few people who have an impact on me, and one of them is my mum :D I LOVE YOU MUMMMYYY :)

Day 08- Short term goals for this month and why

 Since July is ending real soon, I'll do my short term goals for next month.
  • Study hard and do well for the 7878453645 assessments coming up.
  • Watch at least up to episode 150 of 皆大欢喜.
Yeah, that's all I can think of now. LOL what a life I will be having for the next month. 
    Day 09- Something you’re proud of in the past few days

    Something that I'm proud of... that's pretty hard to answer for someone like me who have high expectations of myself, and at the same time, it's hard to reach those expectations. Let's just say for right now, completing the first of 11 fins2624 online quizzes. Zzzzzzz.

    Day 10- Songs you listen to when you are Happy, Sad, Bored, Hyped, Mad

    Happy: Today was a Fairytale - Taylor Swift
    Sad: Letting Go - Jo De La Rosa
    Bored: Anything really
    Hyped: Justin Bieber - Baby. LOL.
    Mad: I don't want to care - Jessica Simpson

    Day 11- Another picture of you and your friends



    Christine has been demanding that she make some sort of an appearance in this 30 day challenge of mine, so today's the day she get a little surprise :D I know the statement says ' friends', but can't sisters be friends as well? I believe that there is a clear distinction between people who are sisters because they are genetically related, and those who although share the same DNA, would still consider each other as friends. Family, are people that you surround yourself with, yet you don't get a choice in associating with.I'm not saying that's a bad thing, I'm just saying that there isn't much say as you are born into such a relationship. Friends, are people you choose yourself. People who you like associating with. So sure, Christine is my sister, but I feel like we're friends as well :)

    Day 12- How you found out about Blogspot and why you made one

    Truthfully, I don't even know how I came to know blogspot. The first blogspot I had was back in year 9 or something. And like many other blogs of mine, it just died. My reason for making one is probably like everyone else's. We want to document our life, how we lived, how we thought. Record things that are important to us now, and look back to it in the future. We are only young once, and I don't want to forget anything!

    Day 13- A letter to someone who has hurt you recently

    What counts as recent? Within the last 6 months? 2 months? 1 month? Oh well, here goes!

    To: Person who had caused so much pain to me,
    It no longer hurts me when I think about it.
    Thank you :)
    Sincerly,
    Me.

    Day 14- A picture of you and your family
    It seems the latest photos I have are all fujifilm style.
    Day 15- Put your iPod on shuffle: First 10 songs that play

    1. K-One - If there's no tomorrow
    2. Jessica Mauboy - Let Me be Me
    3. SS501 - Because I'm Stupid
    4. Lee Carr - The way we used to be
    5. Usher ft Alicia Keys - My Boo
    6. Lena Park - You Raise Me Up
    7. Big Bang - Everything
    8. Backstreet Boys - Drowning
    9. Akon ft. Will Pan - Be With You
    10. Lee Hom Wang - Follow Me
      
    Day 16- Another picture of yourself

     Why must this thing keep demanding photos of myself? Argh. Here 30-day-challenge, have one of me from last year, since I obviously don't have the times to cam-whore :(


    Day 17- Someone you would want to switch lives with for one day and why
     Does the person have to a real character? Or can I say a fictional one too? 'Cause I would like to be Harry Potter LOL I want to be able to do spells and real magic :D Oh and the invisiblity cloak is enticing too hehehe. Doing things that any normal person can't do is something that's worth switching lives with for a day.

    Day 18- Plans/dreams/goals you have

    - To be sucessful in whatever I do, but with that being said, I don't want to be so career driven that that's my focus.
    - To eventually find the one person I'm meant to spend the rest of my life with
    - Shed the extra kilos I've piled one from excessive eating :(((

    Day 19- Nicknames you have; why do you have them

    Honestly, I don't have a nickname I go by. One of my friends call me Serenity, but it kind of defeats the purpose of a nickname if it's longer than my real name haha. But then again, tis so hard to come up with a nickname for my name. Sigh.  :(

    Day 20- Someone you see yourself marrying/being with in the future
    I probably can't answer this one since I can't picture myself with anyone :( It's all too... far away for me to be thinking of these things now.

    Day 21- A picture of something that makes you happy

     I think once upon a time I had dedicated an entire blog post on things that make me happy? I doubt things have changed so much, so I'll just link you guys there :D To see my long list, CLICK HERE

    Day 22- What makes you different from everyone else
    I don't see anything unique about me :( I'm like a flock of sheep within another flock of sheep. Damn realisation is harsh :(((

    Day 23- Something you crave for a lot
    I have a lot of cravings, but I must say the one that stands out the most.... deep fried chicken LOL I mean, losing sleep over CHICKEN, that must be some huge craving HAHAHAH

    Day 24- A letter to your parents

    Dear Mummy & Daddy,
    I am glad you guys hade brought me into this world, and allowing me to grow up in such a loving family.
    Thank you!
      
    Day 25- What I would find in your bag

     Orginally wanted to take a photo of it, but I just really can't be bothered now -____-".
    - 4 subject notebook
    - pencil case
    - wallet
    - hand sanitiser
    - glasses
    - lollies
    - calculator
    - tissues
    - A4 folder
    - headphones
    That's what's in my bag this very moment. Been like that since uni on Thursday. Usually have mobile in there too if I'm going out. Do note that I don't usually carry notebooks/pencil case etc to everyday shopping, just uni LOL

    Day 26- What you think about your friends

    There is probably a lack of contact with high school friends. So we have drifted slightly - some of us anyway. It's like it can be either a) you don't see each other much, but when you do see each other it's like nothing has changed. Everything just shifts back into place. Or there's option b) where you're unsure on what to say to them. It's kind of sad :(( The thing is, in life you're bound to lose contact with some friends, and make new ones. But yeah, I think everyone is awesome in their own way :)

    Day 27- Why are you doing this 30 day challenge

    Because I think it's kind of fun revealing some stuff about yourself this way?

    Day 28- A picture of you last year and now, how have you changed since then?
     

    (Left) Last year some time (Right) A few days ago

    I don't think there is anything that really stands out to me? I still look somewhat the same. Good or bad eh?

    Day 29- In this past month, what have you learned

    I've learned that... if you want something, you have to work hard for it. Nothing will ever just come to you by fate. Doesn't matter what you want, you need to have enough effort and determination to get it.

    Day 30- Who are you?

    SERENE! :D
