Hi guys welcome back
So I spent the entire day in a mental bind, reading a whole ton of Statement of Purpose sample papers and tips on writing them... I didn't have to write any when I applied into RMIT so this is new for me. And let's just say it's not a piece of cake... To be frank my life isn't so grand, but I'm glad I still have some highlights and ambition in there so I could avoid from writing "basically I spent 18 years of my life watching tv". Which... would lead to an obvious outcome.
I'm sure I wouldn't be able to finish writing the SoP by today (or even start writing it) because as usual I take a long time researching and brainstorming prior to starting something. (And I have a new RPG game in my hands at the moment)
Mom and I have been doing tons of baking the past few days and yesterday we baked surprisingly delicious Bakpao's... they smelled heavenly! That is a picture of them after shaping the dough into little balls. The meat was not inserted yet at that stage.
I will keep you updated when I finally complete my SoP! And I will e-mail it to my high school English teacher and perhaps ask for some input... :p

After seeing xiaxue's blog and realising how my own blog hasn't had any 'self-portrait's (too sophisticated a word as substitute for cam-whoring :p), I decided to upload some. Since it's all been large blocks of texts lately...
So I dyed my hair blonde! :D I've now seen myself in black, dark brown, medium brown, light brown, striking red, dark red, pink, bright blue, and now blonde. I want to see myself in ...
- red hair, but long and straight
- caramel brown with bouncing curls ^-^
- dark purple, long straight
- pink, short bob
- rich golden brown, long with gentle waves
I just love hair varieties :P Same old same old is waaaay too boring for me. If you haven't changed your hairstyle in 5 years, I suggest you go to the salon and give it a different colour. It's real refreshing~ ^-^
So today I finally did one of the things on my to-do list, which is to organise the requirements for each individual master's program in the schools I'm looking at. Reading Yale University's requirements is the most stressful thing... they sound so strict and it's like they expect very high quality portfolio from a person who has work experience for many years. It scares me @_@ I never felt this way applying for my bachelor's degree... Well, it is Yale.
Cranbrook Academy of Art seems like a delightfully interesting school. But I'm not the most proactive design student out there so I kind of doubt the learning system will suit me... yet a small part of me is very curious and wants to stray myself in an unfamiliar environment.
I'm scared about master's degree. If I get in, I'm afraid of the experienced adults and their superb skills and mine which pales in comparison. But at least the better they are, the better I will be out of the school, right? Wish me luck guys :)
PS: just checked my blog traffic after a long time, and realised that people are still reading my blog! wow! even though I know my blogging frequency has reduced by a whole lot. so I will try to get in the habit again, and blog whatever interesting material floating in my mind :p thanks for visiting~
Oh, plan to use this wig for Tsumugi from K-ON in her nurse costume:
