1. I wanna be a better person. One who can see deeper into issues, and be capable and strong enough to be decisive... to be able and willing to make the right choice, regardless of the consequences.
2. I want to live. I want the days of my life to be packed with activities that I enjoy from now on. To find the thing that I love most, and push through with it, and find the pinnacle. I want to look back at the end of my life and say, "I love the life I've lived, and I wouldn't have led it any other way."
3. I want to be someone who's more willing to cherish and show appreciation, especially to my family, to my aunt and uncles, to the friends who've stood by me.
That I'd do all this as one with Christ.
As a lol, I'll put in a 4th :P
haha...
And... Happy Birthday Mom! Its a miracle that we're born on the same day! Haha... you won't read this, but thanks so much for all the things you've done for me... for not giving up on me despite how impossible I can be sometimes. Pls stay healthy, and be sure to watch me. I'll definitely become someone you can be proud of. :)
To end off... a nice rendition by Jay Chou... just in case...
Ok, just want to type a short one, since quite bz this weekend, and wanna slp early.
Had 3 midterms last wk (Acc, 1020 - Prog, 2100 - Logic gates). Acc was... tough. I didn't have the eqns memorised well enough, so was trying to make sense of it all from the little practice I had. 1020 has horrible. Was thoroughly depressed for the next few hrs after the test. Qns were really tricky and focused on checking the dark corners of the language -.- Lost something like 20 marks alr... Lucky if I were in the median. Only 2100 was ok. But I forsee a steep curve... :( 1 more to go! (MA1101R)
I'd like to think the worst is over, but there's also a graded assignment, as well as a sit in lab this Thurs. That makes 3 again. If it wasn't for the fact that I did 1 today there'd be 4 -.- Uni life was never meant to be restful huh...
Since I ponned a whole bunch of stuff last wk, there's plenty of debts to be repaid, in the form of webcasts. There's also the 2100 lab I didn't manage to complete, to be done tml... Also have to go do all the finance stuff that I have backlogged. Urg...
Felt kinda bad that I left Bei alone for Bio last fri... shall think of something to make it up to her :)
Alright... my stressful school life aside, honey moon period for the A lvl grads is over! Starting to be anyway =P Since results are out lol and so they'll have to start applying for uni~~ Am glad that sis did quite ok, and that emma did v well as well. Thank God :) Hope they'll get their dream courses ^.^
On a separate topic I saw a bunch of 9gag posts depicting how good friends would kinda fool around. They'd like be total douches to each other, and u'd supposedly not mind. And I... don't really agree?
For me, sure my friends and I fool around. We'd like do trash talk and stuff, and say like "oh i know u're liddat..." and stuff, but we'd never take it v far... or at least not that far.
I personally don't prefer to do the "insult joke" thing with the people I care for. In fact, the more I care the more I'd be careful with what I say. And the more I'd only ask things to care for the person, or do things for them. It just seems counter intuitive to me to spend what little time I have with the people I care for saying stuff that they may end up taking offense to.
Not that I'm against it. But it's just not for me i guess?
Maybe this is me being too uptight. And maybe changing this will make me more fun or popular. But it just feels so... unnatural.
Huh now I feel kinda dumb writing this... Not like this blog's gonna talk back to me, or anyone's actually reading :P But maybe one day I'll look back on this and say "haha that was me when I was 21".
Alright. Gotta go watch some webcasts... Cya again!
YEAAAAA! Haha as per the title.
Kinda strange to have this reaction when normally I'd be like... OMG YESH FREEDOM! =P
Went out to have dinner with them, and it was a nice dinner at this Chinese restaurant in Clementi! Practically like buffet... got beef, roast pork and roast duck, summore got abalone =P Cost heck a lot oso la... $130 for 4 ppl >.< Super full *burp~* XD A proper CNY dinner at last :)
Mm but it's really nice to have them back. I really pity those who say "heck yea i hit my parents!", or steal from their parents and stuff... Either they really don't understand their parents/feel the love, or they have horrible parents, which is just really sad either way (OR is inexclusive here :P). For me my relationship with my parents is really important. They are people who are truly with me, all the way, regardless of my flaws. Seriously, thank God for them.
2) Girls on Singaporean Guys: Chivalry is dead.
******************************Oh. RANT WARNING****************************
This made me go like "wut?" I sincerely hope the opening title of "miscommunication" is actually the true message of this vid, cuz i think guys, or at least the guys i know and thus would like to speak for here, are totally wronged and misunderstood should they be represented by the vid's depiction of guys.
- Give wrong signals => Bad communicators?
False. It probably just means you.don't.get.the.signals. Communication is a 2 way thing. It may be that the guy is incapable of expressing himself properly, but it is just as true, and probably way more likely, that the girl is just incapable of reading his signals as he intended. Or if incapability is a strong word, I'll rephrase that. The girl doesn't understand the guy, or at least the way he expresses himself.
- Expecting non-verbal cues to be understood as if they were spoken is just stupid. Contrary to popular belief, guys too have feelings. They too have unspoken hopes. It's just that they don't go on the girl's case when it doesn't happen. Of course not, cuz anything not explicitly said can't be expected of anyone.
- Say one thing mean another? Say one thing do another? "Hi Kettle! You're black!"
Close to classic case of said symptom. huh.
- I don't know what kind of crowd they're hanging with, but the guys I know treat their gfs like treasures, and I hold my fair share of doors.
There's a recent movie, "那些年我们一起追的女孩", or "You are the apple of my eye", that was really hot and popular. If you're a girl and you liked it, try asking a guy what he sees in the movie. I'm fairly certain you'll see that in truth, guys and girls express themselves in different ways, and understand things in different ways. Saying chivalry is dead is just a ridiculous blanket statement.
