Proud to be a child of God, a faithful son (I hope lol) a trying to be hardworking student, a part-time worker, a nerf/milsim enthusiast, a crafting and music lover and an awesome friend. to you :) Hope you have an enjoyable time reading about my life, as much as I have fun living it! |

I am a university student who loves chocolate! Coffee is my best buddy when it comes to taking on my finals. I have a tendency to want to try and do so many different things at once and as a result, I've found my hobbies to be as such!
Nerfing is one of them, but aside from that, I also love arts and craft. I have my own startup, Thumbforlego at: where I sell my works!
I love to do all sorts of crafting, so you will see me uploading posts of my leathercrafts, thumbdrives, replica guns, nerf gun modifications and gundam models! I'm fortunate enough to be blessed by really supportive parents and given the chance to explore many, many parts of the world and try out a plethora of activities. This is also how I discovered my love for film photography, videography and piano.
The film photo above is unedited! My family loves cold countries xD. We managed to catch the northern lights twice!
I've also gotten the chance to experience many of nature's wonders
And my most freezing experience to date: riding a husky ski sled into the sunset (It was -38 to -40 degrees celsius and the huskies were pretty fast.)

Why 36000feetabove? This is the altitude that commercial planes cruise at and I have always loved the view up in the sky, being amongst the sea of clouds. :) Personally, my favourite favourite food has got to be airplane buns! Does anyone else feel the same way?! With a slice of butter and looking out of the window, I have yet to find an experience that can beat that.
After tomorrow, before today

I dont know i think this is part two if i didnt remember wrongly xD okay life is now officially SUPER BUSY as school as started. I am trying to use this little time i have to squeeeeze out a blog post!! schedule now is extremely packed but i guess i should soon be able to catch the flow of this busy lifestyle of mine eh! alright, the main thing about this blogpost is iceland yeah! i'll blog about my busy life some other time. :)Being greeted in the morning with a whole big spread of food is just too awesome!!! we stayed at this hotel....i have no idea what is the name as half the trip i seemed like i was in a daze. but anywayyyyy the waffles. oh they are so goooooood!! The thing is that you are not supposed to "toast" the waffles in the toaster for the breads but.....WOHOOO it tastes so nice and warm and crispy right after that!! add some honey on top voila~! you have a filling breakfast alright!! they have scrambled eggs, lots and lots of them!! personally, i take like 2 of those servings you see above for the eggs per breakfast. and that excludes their local way of cooking scrambled eggs that are omelette-like with tomato slices in between! i think they were tomato slices. i dont remember...how that kinda sucks if you dont remember what you ate?! aaaand our long bus ride begins. Its crazy how long a bus ride can take, we still need to take a pit stop in between? i believe it was about 6 hours drive or something??? that's like taking an airplane already! But anyway, we stopped over at this petrol kiosk, its quite spacious, looks so new and is located like outta no where. its amazing how there even are people coming by? and i found it kind of intriguing that a kiosk situated out of no where can possibly be so nicely kept and it also has a very IKEA feel? you can see by the photos below. It kind of reminds me of last year when i went Sweden, whereby lots of furnitures and decorations were all from IKEA. In fact, they even smelled the same. Whereas this does not have the smell! dat wonderfully beautiful icelandic water bottle. bought 2 of these!! of which one was filled with snow to the brim. by the way, fun fact 101: a full bottle of snow will melt to approx half a bottle of "snow water". And i dont think it is actually possible to bring snow back to singapore and have it kept the same way within the bottle even with a freezer in SG. just what i think. By the time we reached our destination, the sunlight is already out!! this is the second day of sunlight, and kind of like first day of sightseeing. Geothermal is possible in iceland due to its geography. As such, there are many of these hot springs peppered around the country, Hehe sorry for the blur photo, i believe i set the aperture too high xD and my camera was on aperture priority i believe lmao. tried to, didnt quite work out. Here, i began to realise just how useful it is to have a GoPro and a monopod mount and you will be able to pull off lots of great videos for your trip!! really excited for my next trip overseas as i am definitely going to bring my GoPro and record so much of it!! the water inside is boiling hot, so we aren't allowed to touch it (duh) but anyway, the hot water is directly channelled to nearby homes and whatnot to warm up their houses. So yes they actually do have water pipes running around the houses and the hot springs are what keeps the houses warm in winter! Lunch was pretty awesome with such a nice view! and the interior is pretty neat itself! for us to get to our destination for lunch, we had to travel quite some bit off the main road just to get to this hotel for our hearty lunch! As you can see, the interior looks really simple and beautiful! absolutely digging the log cabin feel in this tiny house. It is not just the interior, but just look at THAT view?!?! it really is to die for man, not to mention, its winter now, can you imagine just how beautiful it will look like with all the green pastures and hills during spring??? yes that is my GoPro that went missing.... sad that it is gone because of all the wonderous memories that were stored inside, but anyway here is the delocious food that they serve!! the vegs.... i left them uneaten as usual :P it's just a me thing whereby i dont eat veggies yknow.... not really. Next, we went on to look at waterfalls! okay from here on, its just waterfalls and waterfalls all the way lmao. We saw i think 3 waterfalls?? Anyway, here is one of the waterfalls. As time is getting pretty late, its already 12am and i have 8.30am class tomorrow oh gosh the dread......Thank God though that it is only the first class hence it should be quite slack!! :P Man, that frozen waterfall just somehow reminds me of the movie frozen xD okay i am so sick of that movie already though since everyone keeps on playing "let it go" let it go already, guys. Anyway, i will be posting more on waterfalls for the next post!! maybe i'll do another 2 more posts on iceland.... i dont even know whether i want to blog on france and london as i dont really have much videos left of them.... and for those two places, i actually took way more videos than photos so its really quite a bummer.....after losing that gopro haiz....okay i guess i shall stop here, want to adopt a new lifestyle of sleeping earlier and all. A healthier one hopefully. :) With tuesday classes starting at 8.30 as compared to 12pm classes on monday, i pretty sure do have tuesday blues instead. The bottom two photos were taken with my xperia z3. and that, my friends, is why you need to buy a xperia x3. It's always going to be king oh yeah! COME ON GUYS. CONVERT TO XPERIA.
I leave you guys with a funny video!
