Vesak Day

Happy Vesak Day to all!

And thanks to Vesak Day, I need not have to work on Monday either.

Which is why I mentioned that I have a long weekend to spend.

But definitely, I gotta allocate some time for projects and presentation preparation as usual.

I woke up this morning to bad nightmares again.
I am those sort of people who seldom dream while sleeping and once I start to have the influx of dreams, the dreams usually turn out to be ridiculous nonsense.

It was the second time I dreamt about almost the same scenario and the person involved is one of my family member. So I got quite worried actually.

Went to the Shuang Lin Monastery at Toa Payoh with dad and mum in the morning as it was Vesak Day.

As usual, the temple is always packed with people on this day.

I like the place very much because it always give me a very peaceful feel.

Not only that, I always feel that their architecture as well as displays always blend into the concept of nature and it never fails to appeal to the locals as well as the foreigners who will drop by for a photograph. This is one of those places that foreigners would visit if they ever come to Singapore. 

The place is very much decorated with live nature like plants and flowers and non-living designs like carvings, stones and big rocks. 

Chanced upon the beautiful lotus flower that was full bloomed. 

After I took the photo, everyone else who saw started to take out their Iphones or cameras to shoot. Haha! It's such a babe isn't it?! The inner part of it indeed looks like the lotus roots that we eat. 

Anyway, I had my presentation yesterday and was dressed in formal.

Thought of keeping this memory because it has been ages since I was in formal. My current work now doesn't require me to dress in formal and so it's kind of like once in a blue moon I get dressed up in formal perhaps due to some formal presentations in school.

My team mates agreed to dress in black and white and so I got my comfy short-sleeve top where the sleeves could be folded up and my black bandage skirt and went to work in this outfit on a Friday.

Yes, it seemed silly because Friday is supposed to be a dress-down day.

More project submissions and presentations next week so I gotta look as tired as this. After all these, it will soon be revision lectures and examinations will be round the corner again. Tell me how not to feel lethargic? 

On a happier note, I am gonna have my yogurt feast again later! HOORAY~
