sights truly worth keeping
As i have previously mentioned, i am helping out my friend with her FYP called “At first sight” as i am appointed as a Youth Ambassador for this project. Friends who are reading my blog, but have yet to like the facebook page please help out
all you need to do is just simply click on this link : https://www.facebook.com/ProjectAtFirstSight and like the page
friends ought to help each other out righttt? I’m sure i would be more than willing to help you peeps out when you need me to like your Facebook page too 😀
anyways if you have missed the previous post, i would mention briefly again what is this project about.
“At First Sight” is a youth oriented contact lens care campaign that stresses the importance of proper cleaning and tending of contact lenses amongst university students. The campaign arises due to an increasing trend of contact lens usage by youths for the purpose of a beautified appearance. However, a negligence to properly contact lens care results in a higher risk of eye infections and other eye health problems. “At First Sight” hopes to communicate the message of prioritizing eye health above appearances because the sights you share with your loved ones are the sights truly worth keeping.
In my opinion, i feel that this is a rather meaningful project. I have been wearing contact lenses for like 10 years, ever since i was like 12. The reason why i started wearing it was mainly because my mother wanted to stabilize my eyesight which was increasing at a scary rate and since hard lens was said to be able to stabilize one’s degree, i started wearing contacts. It is true that my myopia degree stabilized and i have grown to love contact lenses because of the many benefits that it has brought for me, BUT now i suffer from astigmatism and also eye infections once in a while because i’m really lazy to practice good contact lens care. It’s a common problem, ikr, it’s like school is so crazy, hectic and stressful already, who will be in the right mind to carry out all the procedures for good contact lens care. But for every action we take, there are consequences to bear. I really hope that through this campaign, more people will be aware of the need to practice good contact lens care and be aware that they are not alone that they are facing these problems too 🙂
As an ambassador, i will be doing a doing for the 7-Day Challenge starting on the 8th of Feb. During this 7-Day Challenge, i will be blogging daily on valentine’s day week and address the key problems identified by At First Sight which are:
- Wearing contact lens for prolonged period of time.
- Wearing contact lens pass its replacement date
- Purchasing from unauthorized retailers
- Using cosmetic lenses daily
- Lack of proper cleaning procedures and regular eye checks

first fitness class
had my first yogilates class in the school’s fitness corner ytd 🙂 AWESOME, okay, i realized i sucked at doing things that requires flexibility. fun and interesting experience in class, didnt know that one can perspire from doing yoga. and though the postures looks easy, they are not easy at all when you try it.
i’m still aching all over from the yogilates. even my neck is aching. OMG.

determined to lose those fats
gym session was a great experience.it was my first time in my four years of SMU that i was in my school gym.though i have paid for the facility as part of my school fees, but i have refused to enter the gym as i really really hated running. but due to the upcoming holidays and the depressing weight gain due to my horrible eating habits, i have decided to join gym activities and step into the school gym for the first time.
OKAY, it was really intimidating in the first place, as i see so many of them who look like they are damn good runners or frequent gym regulars. and there were many students in the gym ytd. i guess everyone is either very healthy (unlike me) or they are trying to reduce their guilt for the upcoming CNY. HMM i never thought that i would run the treadmill cuz seriously: 1) i hated running because i sucked at it and 2) i can never run w/o holding onto the treadmill. So when my friend started off with the treadmill, i was like GG, OMG, WTH!!???!!! but after 10mins of running, i realized that it wasnt tat bad afterall 🙂 i think swimming has really helped me to build up my stamina which has enabled me to continue running w/o feeling stressed out. though it was really tiring, i was glad i was able to complete my running on the treadmill, continue with a striding machine which my BFF love and some muscle-toning activity. maybe i’m not so turn off with running anymore :)) shall gym more with my friends more often 😀 and i’m looking forward to the yogilates class next week!
NEW YEAR resolution : STAY HEALTHY 🙂
