16

yes this is an update of my life.

tomorrow will be the last day of 2015. gosh time is really moving too damn fast. soon it will be entering a new year. soon semester 2 will start. soon Chinese New Year will be here. it feels as though it was only a couple months back when i was enjoying Chinese New Year.

it is such a time when i will pause to see what i have achieved and experienced. i guess this past year has been really a struggle. well these struggles came from school i guess. well i am glad all those are over. in fact, here is where i am thankful for those who have helped me through and struggle with me haha. no one said university would be a breeze anyway. of course, there were really happy times throughout the past 12 months.. especially the fact that i found an amazing girl early in 2015. she is the best thing that has happened to me in NUS so far.. probably the best even when i graduate haha.

ohh wells.. thankful for all the friendship i have.. from those i just made this year to those that have lasted for many years. may such bonds last really really long. really grateful to have my family as well. let's hops 2016 will be as entertaining or even better. cheers.

one corner

yes this is an update of my life.

so near to christmas and the new year. so near to the end of the holidays. the same old mundane thing of planning timetable is on the way. got a rough plan i guess.. just needing to find one more module to get the timetable ready. of course, considering few other alternatives and what not just in case luck isn't always on my side during the rounds of bidding. i know the situation of my bid points.. sad but ohh wells hope i can get the modules i want. the timing of lessons aren't exactly fantastic though.

moving on, in a few hours time, it will be the release of the last semester's results. i don't speak of it much but in fact, i am really fearful of the grades i will be getting. i am literally, in my own imagination, hiding in a corner feeling comfortable as i see my last semester's results slowly creeping up on me. there is no place to hide but to face it as soon as it touches me. fingers crossed.

until next time then. cheers.

CFC

yes this is an update on my life.

holiday time is passing way too fast. or maybe it is because i have less me-time this time round. not complaining about going out too much or what but just hoping that winter break will be longer. lol.. don't we all wish breaks are always longer than work time?

anyway, it is about a week from a short getaway with my family. Bintan again. however, this time we would be going to another part of the island. really cannot wait.. though i don't mind camping at home to sleep all day too lol.

okay, however, the main thing i want to talk about this nothing related to my life. it is something to do with a-day-old news. a news pertaining to a rival football club but nonetheless worth talking about here. Chelsea football club has just removed the manager due to its club poor first half season performance. poor dude take the blame. personally, i would want to weigh in a little of my thoughts. i guess such a poor performance isn't exactly the fault of the manager's. yes, bad managing will probably bring a club down slightly but bad players' attitudes will bring it from top flight to dirt. ohh wells.. life is harsh.

until next time then. cheers.

before acting

uncollected thoughts

yes this is an update on my life.

busy is good. well, not always but at times it is. i think it is more appropriate to say that being busy at the right time is good. because, of course, no one wants to be busy at a time when you are exhausted, needing a little more rest. well that's me tonight. after being a day busy going around with my family i want to rest and sleep in tomorrow but i cannot.. i have a tutee to teach. ohh wells, shall focus on the good.. earning extra pocket money.

one month is a little too short considering the things i hope to achieve and the fact that the next long summer break i would be working as an intern or a temporary staff somewhere.. hopefully. nonetheless, been trying to enjoy myself as much as possible. enjoying through giving time for my own recreational activities and spending time to hang out with loved ones. one thing i have yet to really do is recollect my thoughts. thoughts that matter. of some i would at times post here. hopefully i could do that soon. meantime i shall catch up on my shows during my free time.. lol. stay happy people. cheers.

perceptions

i think in today's context, people see giving thanks as something deeming to their pride or something. instead people would rather give a unwilling apology over thanks. well, here is some examples i came across the other day that set me thinking.

unfairly fair

think many many posts ago, i mentioned about life is unfairly fair. or fairly unfair.. whichever you think might fit your perception better. then again, i came across this particular article about something similar and thought that it would be good to share it here.

The Problem Isn't That Life Is Unfair -- It's That You Don't Know The Rules

at peace

yes this an update of my life.

at long last.. finals is over. goodbye to year 2 sem 1. never felt this mentally drained for quite sometime. even not for those finals in past two sem.. wonder why. probably because the content of the modules i take this sem. probably because the exam papers are generally tough this sem. probably because i had to work even on the evening of my last paper. either way, all is over. i can start to really enjoy my break.. a real short break.

first off, sleep debt and no alarm. my sleep debt is near zero thanks to the fact that i have only three finals but i still want to sleep without using an alarm clock for just one day or two. like i mentioned in my previous post, i will not waste too much time in this short break to sleep too much. next, trying new experiences with my favourite girl. hehe intending to go out explore places like Ubin and Coney Island and what not. three, hanging out with old friends, especially those that i didn't managed to hang out with during the summer break.

for now, i shall chill and enjoy my shows before hibernating into lunch time.. lol. cheers.

hey Dec.

yes this is an update of my life.

this year is really flying by. it feels as though it was just mere days ago when i was enjoying Chinese New Year. but no.. now we are nearing Christmas and then next year's Chinese New Year. i don't know if it is a good thing or not.. think i am leaning towards the idea of feeling time flying by as a good thing more than a bad one.

well, to feel as though time is flying by would mean that one has been keeping oneself rather busy and occupied. being busy and occupied is a good thing for me considering i am a student and a part-time home tutor. so being bust and occupied at least would mean i am likely making use of these time to earn extra cash and gain new knowledge. at least that's what i hope i am doing.. haha.

nonetheless, one thing i would regret now and then during school semester is not catching up with all the close friends i have prior to start of the semester. ohh wells mental note then.. have to make full use of holidays to catch up with them.. spend a little less time sleeping in or idling on my own. personally i think being at this stage of life, the close friends or best friends or buddies i have currently will be the people whom i will hold dear to for the rest of my life. one, i would have known most of them for a rather long time now so if we have been sticking to one another, there is bound to have a reason and thus a purpose. two, subsequently in the remaining years in college and in workplace, i think the friends that i will make will probably be friends-friends kind of relationship. yes, we will help one another and hang out with one another now and then. however, the closeness those future friends share with me might be really different to those of i share with my current treasured friends.


this leads to me to think about something else now and then. i realised that when we meet a person is really crucial too. allow me to elaborate a little. say i met this person only a year or so back. i am in good terms with him/her. however, if i were to have met him/her say a decade ago, this person might actually turn out to be one of my closest buddy. as you grow older, vulnerable seats for treasured friends would be occupied. a human heart cannot hold too much as well.. hence the number of relationships has a limit as well. time in which you first meet a person does really matter.

ohh wells, shifting the focus back to time flying by. one last paper for this semester in less than 12 ours time. freedom in slightly more than 12 hours time. i really really cannot wait. while adults always tell me that a students' life is better than a working adult's life, i still look forward to ending my studies. as i am not in my graduating year, i am only looking towards each end of the semester.. haha how typical.

ahh.. December. short break and short holiday but i shall treasure every single day of it. i will not waste too much time sleeping in and idling. cheers.
