Her name is Sabrina, and she is probably one of the laziest and emotionally closed off people you will ever meet. Don't judge her for it; she's a lot smarter than you can imagine and is fiercely loyal to her true friends. A new graduate who majored in law and hoping to work for legal aid find a way of helping people in any way possible. She lives to achieve success, with no plans of execution. She maintains sanity, with her natural talent of repression; fitness, with weightlifting and circuits; and cheerfulness with singing and eating frequently. She is imperfect, and will always be honest about it.
Words speak

Haven't done a detailed post in ages!
I finally remember the funny thing I wanted to post about while I was in Malaysia. I stayed in a room with both my godmothers kids. The internet was down late at night so I decided to read 'I am the messenger' by Markus Zusak instead. Suddenly, my godmothers eldest son stirs in his sleep. He sits up, looks in my direction and mumbles something that sounded (to me) like 'switch off the lamp'. In my confusion I say : 'what did you say?!' and he goes 'oh, no worries, it's nothing'. I then ask him: 'are you sleep talking?' He replies: 'no, don't worry, it's nothing' time to switch tactics-I threaten him: 'if you don't tell me I will wake you up at 4am to tell me'. Again, he mumbles that it's nothing and goes back to bed. I told my godmother about this. The strangest thing is that he had his eyes OPEN while he spoke to me! Apparently he has always done this whole sleep talk/having a proper coherent conversation whilst in a dream like state but with his eyes open. Scared me at first but I found it really amusing. No? Just me? Oh well.
The most recent blog titles with quotation marks are random snippets of things my godmother has said to me while I stayed with her. She's hilarious. I cried whilst leaving the airport but feel asleep on the flight from Malaysia to Singapore. After resting and realising the holiday really is over, I had to transfer flights to get home to London-all of a sudden it just hits me and I start tearing up while the plane takes off. The sleep gave me energy to cry again haha. Unfortunately, this was also the point where the cute guy sitting in front of me decided to turn around and glance at me. Smooth move Sabrina. I had 13 hours to initiate a conversation with this gorgeous human being and I failed to say anything apart from 'Hey, dude. You dropped your pillow'. During the flight I kept looking at him. I am so lame.
Another thing worth mentioning is that I have finally started my first official (paid) full-time job! I actually do quite enjoy it and I'm always meeting new people who are nice to work with. Had my first day shift today and I saw two people I know in store (no pre-planning involved). Too awesome. So far so good. Then again I've only done the one day shift so far! The woman sorting out the go backs for me to take complimented me on my memory of the concepts. Bless her. I just have a vague memory and people are often helpful to point thing out to you if they're familiar with the item in their section :D Slightly embarrassing moment when I went to the ground floor to give them some items and one woman asked me where I was from so I told her my usual thing. 'My mother is from Malaysia and my dad is from China'. Then she's like 'no, sorry, I meant which floor...' Oh cringe.
