OH HAI!

Today (or rather yesterday...) was lik an okay day. More to the positive end (:

Well yesterday was the start of the exam period for me. Well for me, I only have 3 papers - Microeconomics, Principle of Management and Financial Accounting 1. Fortunate me. And all three are sorta in running order. Yesterday was day 1, next Monday would be day2 and finally day3 (the final day) wld be on a Tuesday!(:

So today I woke up, brushed up and took bus to school. Today's exam venue was at Temasek Convention Centre (TCC) so instead of alighting at Mushroom, i alighted one stop after mushroom. And don't want to elaborate any further, met up with Carissa, Reneé and JiaHui and headed to TCC. Got seated and exam started.

Managed to complete it in time with 10 minutes to spare. And really thank God that all the stuff that I actually revise/read through remained in the correct compartment and won't mixed up! Praise the Lord! I was super worried cause like POM is the most boring subject of this semester. And even in the morning of the paper, if somebody asked me something in relation to POM, I would most likely just stare at them with the very blank look cause I really really thought I could not remember anything and was close to freaking out. But thank God that when it came to answering the questions, all the answers (that I read up) could come out. Really really praise the Lord! (:

When exam ended, walked out of TCC and met my 언니 by coincidence and we went to school Macdonald to buy drink! I bought my regular Minute Maid Orange Juice (seriously, it's just a scam to make people think that they are drinking a more healthy choice. But are they really drinking a more healthy choice drink? Meh) and 언니 bought Milo. Once that was done, we went to bustop and while walking through market, saw Demas and gang. And as expected, only Demas (or was there more? Don't know, never observe) waved 'Hi&Bye' so I just waved and continued the conversation I was having with my 언니. While waiting for the bus, Demas and the full gang walked towards the bustop. Well not stoping them. I mean this isn't my personal bustop. So they can use it for all I care. Haha! Anyway, bus eventually came, and me and 인니 boarded. Initially I thought they will board too. But turned out, they didn't. Oh well *shrugs.

On the way to interchange, saw Eugene - for the 3rd time in the day - had small talks when bus reached interchange before he alighted.

NOTE: conversations that I had with 언니 either contain hints of mature contents or I just plainly cannot remember.

Reached home just in time to see kor preparing for school. Today he also has a paper. Had small talk, then I went to eat my lunch. Wished him luck then he went off to school and I went to nap. Napped for like 2-3hrs before finally waking up.

After awhile, my 남편이 was like asking me if I took Microeconomics. Then i was like yeah, and she was like asking if she could call me to ask something, and i was okay. So she called, and we chatted for awhile before putting down for her to call me using Viber and 'teach' me some Microeconomics stuf that i was confused about. After clarifying, we hung up and I begun reading fanfiction from the app "Wattpad"

Wattpad is generally like a fanfiction application where people can post and read fanfiction. It's like fanfiction.net, but smaller and have an app. I created an account cause i had to to view the fanfiction. To whoever reading this, of you are interested, go to this website

http://www.wattpad.com

And search for the writer 'lyuhyejin' that's my pen-name for wattpad(:

Anyway, soon it was dinner, had dinner and watched abit of Ju Mong while having a short twitter conversation with 언니 on how bad Ju Mong is in term of common sense and acting. After dad returned with a cake and told me separately that the cake is meant for my mum (and also another church lady) and tell me to tell my siblings that they will be cutting the cake after cell group. And I was like okay(; so when their cell was ending, me along with my siblings began to get ready the cake (for pictures search me up on Instagram @ilovetomatoes).

After eating the cake, I went back to my room and began to sort my photos as it was taking up too much space on my iPhone): and Im like super sad cause some of the legit photos are deleted and I haven't made a copy of it on my PC. I must find a more efficient way of updating the photos not I will seriously cry cause its such a pain in the ass to ensure that I already have this photo on my lappie. And sometimes some legit photos are just deleted cause i missed them out when copying and deleted them without duplicating the picture >:( one example is the photos I took when I changed my spectacles to my current one /: haish):

Also download some songs. Then, prepared to sleep.

Lolol! Now I'm suppose to be sleeping. But I'm blogging! Haha! Shall sleep after this blog is posted! Keke!

Had been a long and rather positive day! Super glad! Keke! :DD

Shall end this post with a family picture!(:

JYAN!

MON NOM

I have a Korean name now! Haha! Me and Priscina came out with it. (: it's called 류혜진. Haha! I had a rather tough time trying to think out of a name. A Korean name especially. Cause firstly I do not knw anything abt the Korean language. And secondly I want it to match my actually name. So aft mch deliberation, I finally decided to settle fr the name 류혜진 (Ryu Hye Jin). When written in hanja will be 柳惠眞. Keke!

Now why did we suddenly had the idea. It's actually a "long" story. It all started with a twitter convo tht me and Priscina had. So at one portion she was lik twitting me why wont I believe her. Thn I'm lik cause I'm not yr darling'. Keke. Thn she was lik ohyeah. S'ok, we can be chojae(?) thn I'm lik wht is tht? Thn she was lik oh it means sister-in-law. Thn I was lik LOLOL! If we are sister in law, tht means ur hubby (weimin) is my brother. So thts how this whole family thing came abt. Haha! And jus tday she was saying tht it's so weird to call me dongsaeng cause it's so weird. Thn I'm lik actually u dunnid to address me w a title cause in e family, I'm younger thn her in r family hierarchy. So Priscina was lik. Yah, she can actually call me by my name. But I dn have a Korean name she can call me by. Thn I was lik lolol. Thn help me create. Haha! But tht wasn't rlly the driving force. Wht rlly made me think of one was whn Priscina ask me to read her ff on this website called wattpad.com. And in order to access the app, I needa sign in. So I made an account and was lik hey why not mke this the debut of my Korean name (; lolol!

So all along I wanted my names to be related to my actual name. And case Chloé is hard to actually convert it to Korean, so we decided to make it a traditional name w surname and all(:

So all the while I knew tht if I wanted to use my Chinese name, I wanted a 惠 in it. Oh. As u might knw, my Chinese name is 陈祖惠. And apparently, 惠 is e only one tht can be translated into various languages and still sound okay. Fr example, it can be read as megumi, megumu, kei and e. and whts mre, it's related to my actual name. So thts e first hangul character I looked for. And it came out to be hye (혜) so I stuck w it. Next I was super set on choosing my surname. So I immediately searched google for the Korean reading of the hanja 陈 and it came out to be jin (진). Thn Priscina was askin me if tht is even a Korean surname. So anxious me, went to search up if its a surname. And it turned out tht it is! So I happily placed tht as the surname. Thn as u cn prolly see, my first hangul is jin. Second hangul is hye. So I was lik if the third hangul started w "f" it will be lik "f, h, j" lolol. Thn it will be so cool! Hahah! But Priscina said tht there's no f in hangul. So I'm lik okay thn I will choose l thn it will be lik "j, h, l" lolol! Thn Priscina said tht "l" is sometimes also pronounced as "r" Thn aft awhile of thinkin and much more thinkin, I realized tht there's a surname tht is ryu (류 - 柳). Thn idk why. I suddenly felt lik moving jin frm e surname to the last one. So I went to find if there is other hanja tht is also pronounced jin. And turned out there is! And it actually is 眞 which is also read as zhen in Chinese. And when I found out I was over the moon cause 惠真 jus sounded so good. Now idk if I should have chose 珍 as it also is pronounced jin. Actually, I also dk. /: hahah! Hmmm! So my self made Korean name is Ryu HyeJin (류혜신) whn written in hanja its 柳惠眞, in simplified Chinese is 柳惠真. (:

So that hw it is! Keke!

I can't believe I wrote this much on how I got tis Korean name :O

I feel tht there's sort of a need to learn languages. Idk, but to me languages is such a beautiful thing tht is unique to certain group of ppl. And also, the more languages u understand, the more u r able to understand wht ppl is saying w/o askin thm to translate. Lik nw Internet is so resourceful tht it jus require a few search to find wht u want and a few more clicks to understand whatever u r curious abt. However, u cnt learn a language w jus a few clicks so I find it mre impt to learn a language.

But the sad thing is some languages kind of require u to either translate ur name or create a name. Hence I kinda of lik pinky-swear myself tht if I had to make/create a name I will always relate it back to my original name in one way or another. Cause i super duper love my name regardless whether it's English or Chinese :B

So here's a list of my names from all the languages ive learnt. Not lik it's a lot /: keke! But whatever! Haha!

English: Chloe Chan
Chinese: 陈祖惠
Japanese: 恵 チン
French: Chloé Chan

and recently added...

Korean: 류혜진 (Hanja: 柳惠眞)

Hahah! That's all from me! :DD

JYAN!

P.s.: LMAO! I was wanting to look if there's a nice title fr this blog post so I was lik hey! Why nt use French! So I went to google translate. Thn u knw wht I gt frm "my name"? See the title :DD HAHAH!
