OMG: It's been too long

The title says it all..

Hi everyone out there,
It's been ages since my last update *gosh*

Guess what...my finals are over and now, waiting patiently (but nervously) for the results...
And in 2 weeks time, I will be graduating (ain't that quick!!) depending on my results..LOL *cross fingers*

A lil update:
Just got back from Gold Coast with my ex-college mates: had an AWEsome time >> but now broke =(
I have to quickly get a job after Christmas to earn some $$$ >> if anyone wants to hire me =)
Will be spending Christmas & NYE in Australia (my first time celebrating away from home) =(
Hoping to meet & make new friends =)
Trying not to be lazy; hopefully, discipline enough to exercise everyday =p
....parents will be around so no funny things for me...

This seem like a random blog, isn't it? Oh well, thanks for your time..

Will blog soon.. <3

What Is The Hardest Thing You Had To Do?

Life, Love, Friends, Family, Relationships...etc are pretty tricky things we have to deal with everyday

So my question to you all is: 'What is the hardest thing you had to do?' (Don't need to share with but just take a moment and reflect...)

Was it for love? For money? Attention? Self-attribution?

What are your limits/boundaries? Will you go to the extreme? It could be the foolish mistakes or sacrifices you made..

As I reflect to this question, I realised that the hardest thing I had to do is to be HONEST. To be honest with myself and people around me. It is difficult nowadays with the media and the society bombarding us with images of perfection, wealth and popularity. I had to learn it the hard way that, to be happy with one self, we need to learn to love and embrace ourselves. My advise: Don't care about what people think or say about you...!!

It was and still is difficult for me to be true to myself, as I do have a great fear of men. I always have this assumption that people are judging or talking crap about me. Therefore, I tend to be a people pleasure...(not good =p)

As time passes, I learn from my mistakes, brush-off my shoulders and move on. 

Don't you just hate those moments when you had/wanted to tell the truth but you got into trouble for doing so?? *grr*

To think about: Don't you realise that it is damn tough to live a life without lying? *GOSH*

Did you have to say goodbye to someone you love when you weren't ready to do so?

To see your love one been taken away by someone else and decided to let go?

To tease some kid just to fit in with the others?

To see people suffer and do nothing when your conscious eats you inside?

Name your price, Name your pride, What will you do for human kind?

....Anyway, this is a random post about a random question >< ......

Thanks for reading....& share if you want..Will <3 to read them!!

Beauty Within

Awkwardness starts its way

Like a caterpillar,

We're finding our true colours and pattern,

We can't predict what we will turn out to be,

But only GOD knows,

For He is the potter

And we are His clay

Beauty we seek are never lasting

We seek recognition of the world,

Splurging on things the world throw at us

To fool ourselves that beauty can be bought

We all fall into the trap of superficial beauty

But beauty within is ever lasting

You leave a legacy

You leave a mark,

Mark of love, care, patience, kindness...True Beauty <3

Looking Out The Window

I see but I don't feel,

Open I am to my surroundings

Finding it difficult to understand

The inconsistencies and complications

Sunshine comes with its brightness

Putting a smile on faces

Blooming flowers and hungry plants are fed

Such a beautiful sight

But when it rains, it pours

With its mighty wind

Pushing away anything that stands in its way

Oh such an ugly sight

Terrified I am

But as I look at the bigger picture

Don't living things need rain for water?

I sit silently under a shelter

Who am I to judge?

I am just looking out the window

First Touch

Woohoo!! This is the first post...

Just want to do a lil short post as an intro for a new beginning.
As mentioned in my portfolio, I am currently at a crossroad. I have entered the dooms of young adulthood; no longer a teenager/kid. Every decision I make comes with consequences and responsibilities.

I will be graduating at the end of the year (hopefully...or else my parents will kill me *serious face*) and will be looking for a job soon >.<

Anyhow, the stress of moving on and being independent has slowly creep in.
Should I be terrified of the real world?? I was sheltered for so long and it has dawn on me that life is not as easy as I thought.

The stages in life:

1. Studies (get as many degrees as you can..or be no. 1 > roughly top 5% of your whole intake)

2. Job..(a stable job with fix income to put food on the table and able to have a sustainable/reasonable life)

3. Getting your own car...with your own money not your parents...

4. Marriage (stress of finding the "ONE" or you could let your family match make you <3)

5. House (use up your savings to get your own home..its call privacy)

6. Promotion (climb the ladder of success...)

7. Baby (aaaahhhhhhhhhh!!!)

8. Promotion (need to climb the ladder again...children are just too expensive..need $$)

9. Grow old..while your kids are growing up...

10. Retire

11. Curtain Falls (aka DEATH)

Hmm...interesting isn't it, that life is a cycle. It's like passing the baton. Your children, grandchildren, great grandchildren... will go through the stages too..unless you're born with a silver spoon in your mouth then everything will seem easier....oh how depressing!!


More soon....to be continued xoxo
