Saw a reality show today that gave me some thoughts.

Complaining about things,
ya, it might be bad but
Complaining about people?
That is worse.

There is a gap.


A gap so wide and dead.


It won't be for long.


For if it exist, it means goodbye.

It's funny how just not long ago, you see a person posting his picture online but the next day, he is gone. JUST LIKE THAT.

If it is so heart-wrenching for a stranger like me, what about his close ones?




R.I.P :')

Mercies in Disguise

I believe all things work together for my good whether good or bad.
It may seem like everything is in a mess,
but when you realise and start to believe,
you will know you are blessed. :)

I will seek Your presence, when I need power.
For when I am weak, You give me strength. :)


To my Dear friend,
even when it seems hopeless, have faith!
I pray for a miracle to happen upon you. :)

Okay, so Im blogging because someone in the tagboard is telling me to.

Had a chat with a lovely friend today about ADULTS. They are probably one of the major factors that influence the actions of teenagers or kids these days. Being able to work in this internship, I have truly learnt a lot. Not only in skills but also the feelings of what they felt. Seeing how stressful the environment is, I can understand why certain people will turn to smoking. However, this can be a bad example to kids who try it for fun.

I believe it is up to a person whether or not they want to do the right things. Everyone knows what is right or wrong but why are there still people who choose to do the wrong things? They are not strong enough to control themselves. They are weak to be controlled by external influence, and hence, make the wrong choices.

Adults are supposed to be role models of the young right? If the kid is making a mistake, is there something wrong with what they teach? (Is there not enough love? Is there not enough concern?) OR the kid is really to be blamed for everything.

I remember when I was in sec 3 during my trip in Melbourne, we had to write a letter to ourselves and send it back to Singapore.

Right now, I just want to say to my future self, love yourself, your friends and your neighbours. Treat your enemies like how you treat yourself so that they have nothing bad to say about you or they just have nothing better to do to hate on you. When something bad happen, do not fret. They are just obstacles to show yourself how strong you can be. There is no limit to being strong in your heart. From the moment you are born, the meaning to your life has begun.

Also remember,

Love you,

I believe I have found my meaning in life. Have you?

2011 ends with a bang!!! Thankful that I managed to learn something on the last day of 2011 to bring it to 2012 with me. THREE TYPES OF HAPPINESS! :)

1. Pleasure -> short-term
2. Passion
3. Purpose -> long-term

However, if you want to be happy...

1. Purpose
2. Passion
3. Pleasure

Get a purpose in life first then you will be passionate about it and finally, you will be able to enjoy it.

We may be selfish sometimes, wanting happiness for ourselves but forgetting the happiness that others need.
From 2012 onwards, I will strive to live for others, no longer for myself.

What does it mean to 'enjoy' yourself?

I guess most people heard of this sentence, 'enjoy yourself while you are young'. Yup, indeed we should enjoy ourself while we are young but it does not mean we have to break the law or act like some wreck to get that short temporary pleasure. We can still enjoy ourself when we are adults. :)

I cannot guarantee I will help you solve your problem but I can promise that when you need me, I will be there for you.

Behind every sad person, there is a happy story~
Behind every happy person, there is a sad story~

I am a reject in this world... always the last to be chosen but I know I am different to one. You give me strength. Thank you. :)

I thought I can be better than this.
Maybe I need to be away for a few months, or maybe a few years then I will come back as a changed person.

Saw a sunset when I was going home yesterday. Every trouble just disappeared and I was smiling again. This short moment of light may last for one minute but it sure made my day. :)

Busy = Not sad anymore

Those sad memories, those moments that only make us more miserable.....

People only remember it so as not to let us dread over it any further but to teach us to move on and learn from our mistakes.

I believe I have made the right decision and in fact, I have never been happier than before. It is because it is too amazing that people do not believe so that is why it is being targeted all the time, isin't it? I used to think the same way as you. ' Oh, how can it be true?' Who would want to believe in air? However, it taught me a lot of life lessons.

If you think negatively, a bad singer in choir will ruin the song.
If you think positively, even if that bad singer is the worst of all, the rest of the choir can join hands and sing together so that it will sound good.

PS. Everyone have their own thinking and principles. If I did any mistakes to make you upset or insult and object your thoughts on certain things or worst, say any harsh words, I apologise. Hence, while I am learning to respect your thinking and principles, please respect mine too. There are reasons why I chose it. If you get to know them or even step a foot to the place, I can assure you that there will be a change of mindset. Btw, I am not angry. :)

Would you rather be hated by or pitied by people?

I want to thank those people who are judgemental of me because without those, I would not have grow and know of my weaknesses. Without those, I would not have known who cares for me. :)
