Dear Diary,
So it's time for another heartfelt blog entry. I'm just gonna type whatever that comes to mind even if it makes no sense because yeah la... it's a heartfelt blog entry.
So lately, alot has been happening at home. Believe me, if I could pour my heart out to all of you guys here , I would, but I guess I've always been a private person like that. Like, I hate sharing my problems and such because I always feel it'll just burden someone else and so I tend to bottle things up. I'm pretty sure there are tons of people out there who are just like me. Oh well.... definitely not healthy but what can I do? It's just me. Maybe it just has to do with trust issues too. Like, have you guys ever felt like you had noone that you could trust? Noone but yourself? I don't know why but I feel this way all the time. Probably because I've been hurt, betrayed and backstabbed in my life. Sometimes I feel like when I do pour my heart out to someone, they're just happy that I'm having problems. Is it me or am I just thinking too much? Like do you guys ever feel this way? Like as you're pouring your heart out to someone, you somewhat sense that the person you're pouring your heart out to is just smiling on the inside?
That aside, the past week or so has been a huge emotional roller coaster ride for me. I'd like to say that it all bores down to mother-daughter issues. I just wish she'd stop to think about how I feel instead of just assuming that she knows what's best for me. I love her alot. She's my mum. I know that. She brought me up, cared or me, loved me, taught me and whatnot. But it just really makes me so sad to know that despite all that, even after close to 21 years, she still does not treat me like an adult. I know I'm not 21 yet but don't I have the right to make my own decisions being 20 years old? We live, we make mistakes and we learn. Isn't that all part and parcel of life? I just really don't get it. I may not make the best decisions but at least I'll go through life knowing that they were my decisions and my mistakes. Tell me, if you guys were in my shoes, won't you feel upset too? :( Sigh.... but I feel that it's hopeless. She's just driving me away.... and she knows it.. but she'll not stop till she gets her way.. and that's what I honestly hate the most about her... So what if I listen to what she wants? Will it make her happy for her to know that behind closed doors, I'm crying my heart out? Does she even bother to ask me how I feel about it? Maybe if she was rationale, I might listen. But she's unreasonable.....Shouldn't she be happy that I'm happy? Don't all mothers want the best for their children? If the best for their children means seeing them cry... then that's just seriously messed up. Give me the chance to make my own mistakes and decisions. :( You're my mum, but you're not always right.
Okay lah... don't want to go into further details... shall talk about happier things now. So other than all the drama that has been going on, I guess my life's been pretty good. Been going out quite abit recently. Starbucks sessions with Sondra... karaoke session with Amanda and Zara.. sheesha session with Kalebh,Chanda and etc, shopping with Namira,Nadiah and so on. Bowling,movies ,Zoo with Falila, Shaheena, Akhbar,Karthik etc.... BATAM recently with Junping and gang. And yeah la, the list goes on.
So thankful that I've these people in my life. And I'm thankful to have made new friends. :) So life after graduation is really just me bumming around at home and going out with friends and such. I just feel so happy that for once in my life, I don't have to worry about waking up early for school, about assignments, projects, EXAMS. I just feel so.... relieved and stress-free. At least I am for now. .
In terms of university, I'm still kinda uncertain as to where I want to study at. I'd like to say my parents are fickle. Hahaha. At times they'd be totally supportive in me going to Australia to study and at times they'd be like "No no, you study in Singapore better!". So yeah... I'm so tired of getting my hopes up... only to have them dashed later on. So you know what? I'll just let them decide. :P I'm sure you guys must think I'm the fickle one. But believe me, it's not me. If I had the choice to study in Perth or Singapore. I'd definitely choose Perth! Who wouldn't? I'd love to experience the 4 seasons for once in my life.
So anywhooo... here are some pictures from my Instagram! You've yet to follow me! Please follow me @sofiadendroff and Twitter at @sofiadendroff

Managed to find some time this week to finally get down to reading my book over a nice cuppa coffee at Starbucks! :) Love sessions like these. Furthermore, it was spent with my bestie Sondra. :)
Uh yeah another camwhore shot. Hahah.
Clubbed sometime last month with Namira and friends! :))
Such a fun night! :)
My sister from another mother! Love this girl to death :D Always have so much fun when we're out together. ^^
I guess despite all the hardships I may have faced in life, I'm still grateful that I still have my friends with me. The friends who've stuck by me and never left... thank you so much. You'll never truly know how much you guys really mean to me. Yes, I may be busy... but you guys always understand that and despite my hectic schedule at times, we still make time for each other. I love you guys. :')
And before I end off this blog post, I just want to share this awesome song with you guys! Such an emotional song but I think most girls will be able to relate to it because I'm sure that all of us have suffered heart break at least once in our lives. If you haven't, it's alright, just listen to it because it's still an amazing song. xx
