Swinging…..

Very very bad mood. I didn’t know one experiment can affect me that much. Especially when the problem lies in an area where it is not supposed to appear.

Been worrying and searching the net all these while in hope of finding answers to be queries. It seems that I can’t discuss with anyone regarding the worries. Now I know the feeling of ppl coming to u for help but u can’t go to ppl for help cos juz no one will understand. I don want the “relax, calm down, don think so much” advices. Its not going to help until I can find one possible explanation or solution. So if help comes in that way, I will gladly hear it out.

This is where google is always my bestest listening ear. No one beats you in that.

Friends?

Friends support each other in times of trouble – helping out the other in difficult times.

Best friends care about your well being making sure they wont fall into trouble with traps all around them.

True friends listens to what you dont say but still understand what really runs deep within u.

And being friends alone means that both parties are dishing out the care and concern for one another instead of juz having one of them being the contributing party.

Most imptly, they listen to each other and not trying to juz keep dishing out his/her own problems for the other to listen. This is called selfishness.

So, are u playing a role of a friend?

Or are u juz taking the person nx to u for granted?

And were u around when the other needed ur help most?

Control of ur life?

Are u in control of ur life?

Do u know what u really really want in life? Or are u juz following the crowd?

Do u know what u want to achieve in life? Any purpose in life?

Do u have the vision for the future? To see one step ahead of others to minimize the obstacles in life?

Do u learn becos u want to learn and do things becos u want to do it?

OR

Are u the one who ask if all these important?

Well to some extent it is not very impt. But I juz cant really stand people who do things without liking what they are doing. They just make things seem like its all the other people’s fault other than themselves. Why bring urself such displeasure to do things that u don enjoy at all? These ppl really have no control of their lives cos they can’t even differentiate what they like or don like. Come on society doesn’t need clones. U don do things cos its hot and every other ppl are doing it. Most imptly, decide base on ur strengths and likes. U cannot miss out any of those two factors or else there won’t be any bright road ahead.

Indispensable

No one in this world is indispensable.

People move on with loses.

So don’t think too highly of yourself.

Perform some reality checks.

Life Transformer 2

I’m glad the series is back again. I had blogged about it around one year ago. Nevermind you can recap at this link:

http://minmemories.wordpress.com/?s=life+transformer

Just like the first series, I think this season did not disappoint the avid fans again. The season started a few weeks back but sadly today is my first time watching it. Today’s episode was really good as in it manages to show some of the struggles that some families in Singapore are facing. Its not what we will understand in our everyday lives – thats why the series is a reality tv show. Its kinda heart wretching to see some of the kids in these episodes who are often victims of their respective family problems. It makes me reflect the notion of giving birth to more kids by the government. But looking at these shows, it truely reflected the case of ‘if you have no ability to give what your kid needs, then please close your children making factory’. Or else, bringing someone to this world who you know you have no ability to educate and feed is really cruel for the innocent kid back at home.

The normal scenario often starts with a preview of how messy and dirty the house was. Today’s episode did not deviate as well when the production team showed a clutter and messy house that is maintained by the father as the mother had ‘ran away from home’. I don’t know why the mother would have the heart and bear to leave her kids for her own enjoyment but this is not up to me to comment since conspiracy theories have pop up saying that the show’s version wasn’t a correct portray of the actual situation. And with the kids living in such cluttered conditions, it is of no wonder that they might be left astray and no one would have been able to tolerate such living conditions anyway. The kids were too young and know nothing of about helping their father to tidy up the house after the departure of their mum. The job was still left to the two host – helping them not only to tidy the house physically, but also to impart them some life skills and helping them emotionally to tide over the period as well. Of couse, this would not be the ideal show to bare it all and wash your dirty linen in public. But they should be applauded for having the courage to step out to try and rectify the problems. Then comes the question of why it was left to a reality show to help them tide through their tough period. Where were the government agencies, MPs of the region and social welfare groups? None of them actually knew about such situations that is appearing in the society. This actually makes it kinda sad to know that in this world, if you don’t help yourself, then no one can help you do anything. There is no ties we can talk about or rather no one who would willingly lend out their hands to pull you up when you are down. Where are the support when we needed it most? HOw could a happy family end up in such situation? How could the mum just abandon her kids and left for her own sake?

The only good thing that comes out from this? Well, the younger kids are very sensible. They have come to terms of their mum’s departure regarding it was a reality – something which they cannot change. They know how to accept the failures in life and when to accept and move on in life which is very good. May they have the strength to walk this tough road of theirs – the route may be tough, but those who endured and past it will have the character to bypass all difficulties that life throws you in the future.

A very nice, touching and enjoyable movie. Watching it using a 3D sepcs isn’t a very good experience but the movie actually managed to cut the unhappiness within me. Well I would say it will be the first and last 3D movie that I would ever watch in my life. Sometimes, unrealistic movie plots bring you outta this world. You can venture around with stories making exaggerated plots or actions or movie effects. Thats creativity on the story plotter which I enjoyed to the utmost pleasure. I can say its one of the best movie I have ever watched although its a freaking 3 hour long plot without any dragginess though.

2010 – Dare To Dream

Happy 1 month for not writing anything constructive on this dead journal (YES journal!). Life has been really good but also troubled with some bad events in my growth cycle. Yes, life has its ups and downs. Have not dwell too much on the bad stuffs though. Sometimes I really think I can literally persuade myself out of depression. If there is one day when such abilities were to be gone, then it will mark the ‘you know what’ day lah huh.

First and foremost, 10 of the precious holidays is spent touring the the kingdom of thailand. Not that it is my first time there, but still manage to see and experience some of the things that u can only do if u know the locals there.

1) Visited their university – OMG. The university has a major in agriculture and they teach students how to plant veg. It is so big that maybe the uni occupies the space of the whole Tampines town.

2) Accomodation – Getting to stay in the local’s house.

3) Eating street food – This has always been a NO NO since my stomach cant really tolerate these food. But still, the kid in me wanted to take a try on them especially when we have diarrhoae medicine. Great choice I must say becos the street food are super nice. Even nicer than the restaurant’s food I swear!

4) Driving around in Thailand – I’m not the driver obviously. But I have never sit in a car other than taxi in thailand before.

5) Visiting other places other than BKK – Time for me to opern my eyes and see

6) FOOD! – Food is really fantastic. Overate for the whole 10 days but luckily didnt gain the famous 5 kg. Still enjoying thailand speciality dishes and of cos home made dishes as well!

7) HOTEL – The hotel is really chui. Intermittent hot water + air con leakage + tv channel shortage. But still comfy for the 20 SGD per night cost

FRUITS – Fruits party every night in BKK. I love their pomeloes! U can find ready peeled pomelo just on the sheleves of the supermarket and it cost only like 3 SGD. Jackfruit cost just 1.30 SGD when sillypore sells at 3-4 SGD for one packet. Indeed sillypore.

9) Shopping heaven – Need I say more? I wish I had the extra large baggage to contain what I wana buy. Plus extra money of cos to complement it.

10) Massage massage – Nth beats the thai massage. Really love it to the core. Feel like shipping them over to be my personal masseuse.

Ended 2009 on a high. Time really flies. 6 more months to graduation in the year of 2010. The accomplishment to end my studying life on a high is also a great satisfaction. Last time I didnt think I would be able to make it into a university let alone going into the biology field cos it has always been my worst science subject. I didnt think I would fulfill one of the vacancies as a ’scientist’ as what we would have learn in primary school such that ’scientist’ always give ppl the impression of ‘crazy’. It was the dreams – dreaming to make the breakthroughs in my life; dreaming of doing something extraordinary that not everyone would be able to perform; dreaming to be in the top university in sillypore. One by one, the ‘wishes’ came through but these does not happen without hardwork and sheer determination. Its these 2 factors which had really brought me forward. This really tells us to DREAM, dare to dream! When theres dream, there will be follow up actions. And with everyone’s abilities, nth can beat us on the grd unless u urself is beaten to the ground. Never surrender! Dream, work, live and be happy. So happy 2010 ahead. May all be bless with gd fortune and gd karma. Smooth sailing yr pls!

Tennis tennis…

Trying to pick up this new sport. It is hell difficult especially since I am so used to the badminton playing style. Must keep reminding myself to swing swing and swing my arm before playing the ball. The positional sense, timing and coordination must be inch perfect else the ball will just fly past u. Maybe I should practice more with the wall in school or go source for some online tips to improve it.
