birthdays are special :o

I'm going to xing wang tommorow.. again.. :s

Different experiences mould individuals in their own certain ways. Although there may be similarities in how different individuals handle the same situation, this does not mean that there would not be any differences. When differences occur, we should try to acknowledge and accept them, instead of questioning and/or rejecting their presence.


My mouth mostly conveys what my brain is thinking, but my face mostly shows what my heart is feeling.. I'm not sure whether is this totally true...

lousy pre-bday day :/

I learnt something from my hairdresser over the weekend. She said that, patting your face or neck while you're putting on your moisturiser or other stuff, actually loosens your skin.. I'm not sure whether is it true anot...

"One step at a time there's no need to rush
It's like learning to fly or falling in love
It's gonna happen and it's supposed to happen
That we find the reasons why, one step at a time"

"I need a little more luck, than a little bit,
cause everytime I get stuck, the words won't fit.
And everytime that I try to get tongue tied, I need a little good love to get me by.
I need a little more help, than a little bit.
Like the perfect one word no one should get.
Cause everytime that I try to get tongue tied, I need a little good love to get me by this time."

Tongue Tied - Faber Drive

Some snacks make me irritable.. :/

happy week?

I met up with tl and ced this morning at jack's place at century square :o Although their food was not very fantastic, their service was very good.




Then i went to Cylde's one year old birthday. But i didn't take many photos over at his place. :/


I think the only thing i'll not be happy with, this week, is... how i would be spending my time at my workplace.. but everything else would be good :o .. i hope... .. (@_@)

act

Yeah :o February is here..

Hmmm... I heard a few comments from a few friends about me in the show, and i decided to take the initiative to acknowledge that my acting was terrible.. :/ Lucky for me and everyone that i have never aspired to be an actor... :p

surprise... :p

I had my first pre-birthday celebration just now at a coffee shop at Jurong East. It's my first time celebrating a birthday at a coffee shop.. haha.. I like it because it's different :p







I was a bit surprised because i thought this was just a normal gathering. Although we were at a coffee shop, but i was happy.. and grateful that they celebrated it for me.. :) .. And we went to watch "The Wedding Game" just now.. wl and me watched it before, but the rest wanted to watch it, so we had to.. I don't know why would my friends keep laughing when my scene appears and when my name appears on the credits :s

feeling hungry now :s

It's not possible for me to be on time for work because of the timing of the bus arrival at the bus stop. It's either that i have to be late.. or i have to be early... ... :p haha.. I guess I have to wake up earlier then.. :s

This is one of the dishes that my brother cooked when my relatives came over to visit on Tuesday. It's the best looking one :o



I think i should try to pick up this cooking skill of his...



3 other friends and me caught this bear from those soft toy machines.. during my 1st 3 months at PJC. We spent a lot of time together during the 3 months. We even got into SAJC together, after the 3 months. But we spent lesser and lesser time together. But it's ok.. because there were fun memories..

is it that heavy?

On the first day of the chinese new year, which is yesterday, my family went out and had lunch at Xing Wang and caught "Love Matters" at GV Yishun. And later at night, i caught "Bride Wars". I like the movie because it had this theme, about someone, either a friend/lover/wife/husband, always standing behind and/or beside you, and supporting you...


I missed this smile... :p




I don't want to say it but i thought this rat looked a bit.... ugly :/


does uninvolved means less affected? ...

If you're thinking that life is too easy, it doesn't mean it is. It's just that the ppl around you are taking up more of the burden. You might be less affected because you chose to pick up less of the burden. The bigger the burden, the heavier the weightage.. And it also differs from different individuals. As in.. 1kg might seem like 1 kg to you... 5 kg might seem like 6 kg to you... but 1 kg might seem like 2 kg to others... 5 kg might seem like 8 kg to others. There are 2 factors involved here. One is the size of the actual burden. While the other factor is the individual's perception of the burden..

Does perceiving the burden to be smaller than the actual size means taking the burden lightly?

Think i should be more sensitive to everything around me and help in whatever way i can...

super-content me

Pictures from this early morning :o

This is my mom threatening me to stop taking pictures of her last night.. haha.. :p


This is my mom and my sister after they came back this morning.

Putting ourselves on the other side of this statement... Do we have anyone whom we treasure, for who they are..?

Just like that.. a week is going to be over. The reason why I've been so lazy to blog, is that.. I've been getting more and more tired due to my lack of sleep for the past few weeks. So i didn't want to spend the little amount of energy i have on blogging. A few updates for this week would be..

• I left my handphone in the office after i left work on Thursday night. I went back to get it but the office was locked. I haven't been away from my handphone before and i felt cut off from the outside world :/ I tried telling myself that i would have more time to think of more important issues, but my mind kept thinking about why was i so careless :/ But i was fine after a while.. .. :p
  
• I went back to school today and got to meet my super nice and super honest tutor who is in charge of my attachment.
• I ran around the school today with my friend... This is not much of an update.. but i miss going to school... for now, when there's no exams :p

Recently, I have been thinking about people who leave their country, to study or work in Singapore. For those who have a lot of friends to help them settle down, they are very lucky that they can get support from their friends. But for those who don't have a lot of friends, because they might have just arrived, it would be very tough for them. Staying in a new environment, staying here without their families... I think it would be better if their fellow classmates or colleagues could help them a bit, to help them adjust into this new environment. Just a bit of care and concern would make them feel a lot better. And since Chinese New Year is just around the corner, we could just give them some CNY goodies or mandarin oranges. We don't have to put in a lot of effort to make them feel more comfortable.

Today, my colleague was tasked to take some photos for the before and after posters. I tagged along to try to help to take some nice photos with my own camera.








Another resolution: Embrace all forms of education.. Remember that it doesn't just come from books or notes..

You can't really get too affected by what old people and children say.. when they're speaking nonsense :/ There's no point getting affected when they don't really know what you think they mean.

My tuition kid crapped with me as if i was his friend. I was a bit stunned.. but i was the one who said that there should not be any barriers between us.. so i think i shouldn't complain.. ... :/


I think.. there really is some being out there, looking out for me..
