blogging randomly again. haha.
is it true that only certain people in this world can be satisfied? is it true that humans can only be satisfied when they get everything that they desire in life?
i would say that the answer is a NO!
every single human being are fortunate beings. we've been created differently. all of us have our own strengths, our own specialties. it's up to us to discover our own talent and to use it wisely.
many people, many friends that i've met wants to have better lives. but the fact is, the lives we have now are already fortunate lives. we just often don't realize. life may be stressful, life may be tough. but before we complain, we should always compare our lives to those less fortunate people. aren't our lives way better, why can't we be satisfied with what we already have?
so, let's all learn to look at the bright side of our lives. appreciate every single thing that's being given to us. we may not have everything we want to have, but we do have many valuable things that we should cherish. be satisfied with what we have. and our lives will be filled with joy. enjoy people!
don't ask me why am i talking bout this. it's just a random thought. lol.

i'm back! haha.
it's been a long time since i last touched this blog. and i decided to update it today. for no apparent reason of course. i feel so out of touch with all my friends ever since i started staying in hostel. cuz i only come back home during the weekends and i just feel so lazy to go anywhere.
to all my friends out there, i am still studying my foundation course. one more semester to go. just finished my hectic 2nd semester. 9 subjects in 4 months. was so hectic but im glad i survived and it's finally over. this semester is gonna be a short semester with only 8 weeks of classes. hopefully i'll have more time to meet up with my fellow friends=)
oh ya, im still enjoying life very much. haha. everything's fine. met great friends at my college too. to everyone(if there's even a single one) learn to enjoy your life no matter how bad you think it is kay?
that's all for now!

my view of life..
i realize, the ultimate purpose in life is not just about good results.
instead, good personality and being a blessing to other people should be my goal.
it's pointless having good results but a rotten attitude.
also,
i realize, people's opinion towards me is not as important as my own opinion towards myself
i want to start living a life that pleases myself
not a life that merely pleases people around me.
i realize, human beings can never be perfect and everybody makes mistakes in life
i shall not let my mistakes control me but i shall be a master of my mistakes
admit my mistakes and delete them from my memory
and never repeat them anymore.
i realize, there's so many things more worthy than material possession
i can have the best car, the best house, the most expensive things in the world
but still feel neither satisfied nor happy
as these are just temporary possessions in my life.
thus, my conclusion is, i am working on my life now.
i want to be a person with better virtues,
reduce the amount of mistakes i commit each day,
be a blessing to other people,
and gain happiness through this whole process.

revival of my blog
i did not realize that i have actually abandoned my blog for so so so long.. i do visit this blog but i feel that i have lost interest in blogging. maybe i should start blogging again so my friends will remember i still exist. lol..
i am already halfway through the 1st semester in intec.. social life considered quite good, but academic life, i don't think i am doing ok. perhaps english subjects are just not my cup of tea. having been speaking mandarin to most of my friends in high school, i find it pretty hard to speak english to friends. somehow i feel weird speaking so much english but i am starting to get use to it. sadly, my mandarin is going to sound weird as i seldom speak that language anymore.
i am glad to have such fun going housemates but the disadvantage is, we always talk too much until we forget to study. this really reminds me of those times when i used to talk with my beloved friends(you know who you are). i must learn how to be hardworking. i really envy people who can study. compare to them, i am like a lazy pig.
i realized i have undergo transformation in my life since i started college life here. due to the attitude, attendance and participation marks, i realize that i am paying more attention in class. even if i want to sleep, i will try my best not to because i know that i will lose a lot of marks if i do so. lectures here are really different from high school but the lifestyle is pretty much the same. we have fix venue for classes, fix recess, and of course, fix timetable. i prefer help's timetable. i like being a nomad, changing classrooms after every class and having breaks at random times.
that's basically what i am experiencing in my life now=)
note: i miss my batch's band buddies!!! can't wait to meet them. i hope more people will attend the gathering on the 18/9. i miss all of you very much. i am looking forward towards it.
