Year End Greetings

Hi all... Year has come to an end and new year is starting in few days time.

Time to reevaluate what has been done, what has been went through, what has been accomplished, and what to do next.

For me, this year has been a busy, tiring and fun year. What has I accomplished so far? Does goals set achieved? Pretty much as I expected, and grateful for that.

1. First Class Degree
Just get my certificate from APIIT, and as usual I am grateful that I need not deal with their admin staffs for the next nine months for my convocation. =D

2. Losing Fat (not weight)
Adapting to new environment, especially the food has gained me so much weight. In two years, what I gain except my weight are my nick names. Let's see: Piranha, A Huat, Tham ciak, A pui and Tante Girang. (the last one has nothing to do with every Kg I gain, though) But as set in the begining of the year, effort has been put in for dieting, both healthy (yoga, jogging and less-canned-food) and unhealthy (Eating nothing). Finally, I get to lose some insignificant fat, especially from my "phok-phok" face. =D Maintenance is required though.

The goals set this year are considered accomplished. Apart from it, I enjoy this year for some other reasons.

3. Holiday with Family
When the last time I had a family trip with the complete family members? Very hard to recall. But this year, we made it to Phuket, with dad mom sis bro in law n niece. Happy as everybody enjoy it. Wonder where and when will the next trip be?

4. Quality time with friends
Genting Trip, Singapore Trip, and lots of outing in weekends have made this time throughout the year worth to remember. =D

Am really grateful for all those things: People I met and kindness in within, Problems I went through and solutions to every of them, Self-Realization and lessons learnt.

Finally, to you all... Merry Christmas n Happy New Year!!!

Home

Sad to say, I am going to leave Singapore soon. Just when I'm getting used to living here: the food, the environment, and the people, now, I need to leave. This tension of opposite is confusing for sure. Glad to be home soon, but sad home with nothing proud to be brought.

Journey hasn't ended yet, will resume in no time. Hope by that time, everything will get better; the economy, my mental, preparation and focus.

I will be home soon, after 10 months. And this will be first time for the past two years , I will be spending my new year eve with family. Happy~ There might no exquisite fireworks and decoration, but to be among people I love, is one great things that I enjoy the most.

Home sweet home~ Dad, Mom, Sis, Nieces, and Doggies! I'm coming~

Be Strong!

"A Person who looks strong is the one need help the most"

I encounter this statement before, and wonder if it is true. Lately it seems to be~

Sometimes, when others believe in us and think we can always be there for them, that's the time for us to be strong for them.

Be Strong
When I Don't,
Think I can
and I Hold on!

That what I always think and do.

Lately, it seems I am out of everything to give out and taken by their feeling, burst out crying and drown together with them.

I really wish that I could be stronger
But... if I am not
Hope you guys to understand
I will always love you all
The way you guys are
and I wish so do you,
toward me...

Love you friends~

My Heart~

My Heart is travelling to far far away land
Again...
Leaving me behind
Feeling this emptiness inside

Laughter is the way to hide my tears
Being loud is the way to hide my fears

Wishing for this lonely journey to end
For that - I keep my Hope, Faith and Love
Waiting for the return of my best company
My Heart~

In Love~

Currently, in love with Guitar. Deeply in love!

It sounds so beautiful. Kyaaaaa!!!!!

My Dream

I want to Write and I want it to be Forever!!!

P.S. I am one of those who living the life by keeping the dreams alive. This is a reminder for myself of one of my dreams, which BOLDly appear in my head now. Some might think I am too naive, But I am Grateful for that. =D

Realization

Last night I come to realize something, two things to be exact.
1. When thoughts are processed and voiced out or written down, in words, it just become so clear, either good or bad.
2. I come to realize that when a problem happened, all parties involved are at fault.

So many things happened, I realize when we have a quarrel with friend, partner, parents, or even strangers, mostly we will say that: "This is his fault", "This is ALL her fault", "They cause all this current situation", or "I am at Wrong, all are becaused of me".

Somehow, I think that is so not true. Again, When a problem happens, all parties involved are at wrong.

Take a friendship, man-woman relationship, parents-children relationship or any other relationships that you can think of as an example. When one is doing something obviously wrong, another party does not really want to talk it out, and one day they just explode and quarrel, break up, run away, put the blame on others, or worse non-stop blaming herself/himself - the conclusion is both are wrong. That's what I think.

One is wrong for making the mistake. (No one is Perfect)
Another is wrong for not being open. (Communication is crucial in Human-Human Interaction)

In any cases, we can say that if One is not making any mistakes, then there will no problem at all, so we can just put the blame on him/her and let One appologizes and changes, it solves the problem, rather than arguing whose wrong all these are.

There is no problem with that, a good solution indeed. But, how long will it last? How long a relationship (with friend, partner, parents and others) can last with only one party tries to change?

I am not focusing on the problem, am just thinking if both parties can assess their situation more thoroughly, looking at all possible angles, then not only problem can be solved, but the root of the problem as well. (This reminds me of incident and problem management in IT Infrastructure Library =P)

P.S. I am not sure what others' opinion about this, I am just writing my thoughts down. If some do not agree with this, more than happy to know what their thinking is, so I can reevaluate mine. =D

The Dark Night Sky Smiles

"Rainbow is a smiling sky"
That is part of the lyrics of a song.

Tonight, there is no rainbow, but the sky smiles. So comforting...

The two stars shine as the eyes and the new moon shapes the smiling lips. Perfectly draws out a smiling face of today dark night sky.

- Even the darkest night can shed some light and smile -

P.S. Take the picture from someone's photo collection. And for my suprise, the eyes are not stars, they are planets, Jupiter and Venus to be exact.
