My blogging mood is here again…
Haven really got down to listing the things tt sporeans shldnt take for granted, but I am not talking abt tt in this post (maybe the next one)..
Act I have been thinking abt how life and the environment u live in can really change a person and ur perception of a person. Life is what shapes us into what we are now. Imagine everybody leading the same life and experiencing all the same details in the world, that will just make us billions of adam and eve.
Ppl always wanna be unique and “be urself” and yet there are a bunch of them out there who complains abt how life is not fair and how they wld love to be somebody else. Kinda guilty for tt too. But what is there to complain abt when u know tt u can control ur own destiny. From young, u choose ur own field of study, u choose the friends u wanna be with, u choose the impression tt u wanna give others, u choose ur line of job, u choose the partner to spend the rest of ur life with, and the most impt thing to me is u choose the mentality and attitude u wanna lead ur life with.
“life is like a roller coaster” a rather old phrase from the past. But it is still ard bcoz it has some truth in it. Nobody’s life is always “up there” and nobody’s life is always rock bottom. So when u hit rock bottom, there are only 2 choices. Remain there or climb back up. This is where mentality comes in. why are there 2 classes of ppl out there when there is only 1 world? It’s all in the mind I wld say. The mind is the strongest weapon tt one cld use to destroy others. Why are there terrorists out there who are willing to sacrifice their bodies and why are there soldiers who are willing to give their all to protect their love ones? If u can manipulate one’s mind, then I guess the US government will be willing to do anything to buy u over.
Environment changes ppl. It’s like this silent killer in ur backyard, or angel if it changes u for the better. Sometimes it’s creepy and shocking to look into ur inner self and even more so when u look into others. Ppl always say u dunnoe who ur true friends are unless they stand by u during difficult times. Act for me, I think tt close friends are those tt I think of during difficult times. Those tt I wld want to share my troubles with and feel better juz by sharing it with them. They dun have to do anything, a listening ear will suffice. I consider myself to be v fortunate to have a bunch of them. Really. Esp when I am far away from home, this is the kind of thing tt will pull me through.
Another aspect is tt when u are ard close friends, their company alone is enough. Even when there is silence, it is a comfortable one. U dun have to use up all ur brain juice to come up with interesting topics bcoz it juz comes naturally. Talking abt everything under the world. I muz admit tt there are not many ppl out there who is like this to me.
So I juz wanna dedicate this post to all my lovely friends out there (u know who u are). Thank you for being juz there! I love ur…
and to “uhu” (or are u the “glue” lol): really glad to share so much laughter with u recently and of course the bitching part too. Haha. Though I dun think u will get to read this, but when u 肝郁 can always talk to me k (or juz give me THAT face). Lol.. but that wun happen v often la coz u are always entertained by me! Muahaha…
"The longer I live, the more I realize the impact of attitude on life. Attitude, to me, is more important than facts. We have a choice everyday regarding the attitude we will embrace for that day. We cannot change our past. We cannot change the fact that people will act in a certain way. We cannot change the inevitable. The only thing we can do is to play on the one string we have, and that is our attitude. I am convinced that life is 10% what happens to me and 90% of how I react to it. And so it is with you... We are in charge of our Attitudes." Charles R. Swindoll

happy day today! finished 骨伤科 paper today.. easier than i thought.. only took 40min i think, alot of ppl left early too.. so after sch, junie and i wanted to hang ard till dinner time. too sick of studying althou there's another paper next wed. she gt another one next mon! haha.. so we decided to go tidbits shopping at 物美 supermarket.. while walking there, we passed by this underground arcade place so we decided to go in and tk a look (both of us are arcade lovers lol)..
the games there are considerably cheaper! we played "house of the dead 4" for 2rmb per pax.. "lets go jungle" for 3rmb per pax.. driving game for 1rmb per pax and the "pick the toy using the claws" machine for 1rmb per try. hahah din know we can be so entertained by arcade games.. had a really good time there. enjoyed the shooting games. played lets go jungle for the first time and it was act quite fun.. the whole gun will vibrate when u shoot, juz like a machine gun.lol.. we can go crazy juz shooting at weird animals and creatures and also zombies..
after we used up most of our energy there, we decided to continue with our tidbits shopping. found some really cheap biscuits there. cant resist buying all of them and stupid junie keep 怂恿 me to buy!! so in the end i bought 54rmb worth of tidbits.. considered real cheap coz i bought like 6 diff types of them! the best buy was a big tin of butter cookies worth only 10rmb!
yeah it was a simple day of fun. nice company. =) a small break before the weekend studying starts again. finally can slp well tonight. i dunnoe how i survived the wk. i watched both the 245am soccer matches on wed and thurs. and today i went for my paper. quite amazed by myself oso. lol
anw today is the big day for my eldest sis!! louis proposed to her and she said yes.. soooo happy for the both of them. he booked a hotel room and when my sis went in, it was full of roses.. haven talked to my sis yet so i dunnoe the details, but can imagine how shocked she was.. so sweet. wish them happiness together! =)
oh last wkend i watched "shutter island" with my housemates.. for those who like twisted mind games, be sure to catch it!
lastly share with ur a joke tt junie told me.. "a successful man is one who can earn more money than his wife can spend. and a successful woman is one who can find such a man."

"should i or should i not"
tt "thought-ful" day tt i had, i tot abt my future too. it seems rather bleak. nt sure whether i will get any job when i graduate. nt sure whether i will have the skills to help those ppl in need. seeing tt our seniors will graduate in 2 mnths time, it is really hard to believe tt it will be my turn in 1 yr's time.. doubt tt i will have the confidence and knowledge to survive in this field..
for those who know me, this que had been ard ever since i was in this course... the uncertainty abt whether i chose the right course. whether i shld come to china. regrets tt i din know the option of overseas studies.. it's not all negative thou.. i learnt alot in this course too but juz nt sure whether it's enough to make it a living and to be the one saving ppl..
i have been thinking abt juz quiting the course now and nt waste more time.. juz go back to spore and get a job first. and maybe from there, i can find out wats the right field for me.. maybe part-time studying will be cool.. although many will say tt it's so wasted! but i think tt 1 yr is nt tt short afterall... i can achieve so much in 1 yr so why waste it on something tt i have no confidence in.. i will be taking a huge risk here i know.. nt knowing wats there for me to do back in spore. this is tough man... i dunwan to regret another decision again! sooo wat shld i do?? find out my final answer by highlighting the paragraph below!
HAPPY APRIL'S FOOL DAY to all!!!! hahah those who fell for the trick own up!! leave me a tag k.. lol.. but dun spoil the fun for others who hasnt read my blog yet! keep smiling cause everyday is beautiful! =)
