There is everything to be gained from bending in the wind and much to be risked from refusing to compromise. Only if you are ready for anything should you do anything inpulsive. Remember that special people are depending on you.

Turning Unhappiness into Joy
read something from the Newpaper today and found it rather interesting… thought i would share it with you all:
Anyone can be happy. Happiness is a skill that can be taught and learnt.
The first thing we can do is to change the way we think.
We blame our unhappiness on other people or outside things or events.
In reality, our subconsious ways of thinking or interpreting things create our upsets.
Unhappiness is a largely self-inflicted agony.
An identical event – for example, cancer – happening to two people, can trigger completely different responses from them.
One may be unable to accept such an unfair affliction and become stuck in resentment, fear and helplessness.
The other may see cancer as a very common occurence which also happened to her. She proceeds to handle its treatment in a calm, intelligent manner. She sees the enforced down-time as an opportunity to play mahjong – a game she loves but never has the time for.
How could one person be struck in bitterness and powerlessness and another sees cancer as an opportunity for enjoyment.
It is not what happens to us that makes us unhappy, but how we interpret what happened that causes unhappiness.
The actions we take can make the difference between surviving and growing from a challenge or being killed by it.
Without our being aware of it, our minds are incessantly analysing, judging, interpreting and making meanings about everything and everyone we encounter in our lives.
Our ceaseless meaning-making is always unconscious and too frequently, our assumptions and conclusions create stress, unhappiness, fear and powerlessness in us.
The quality and content of our lives today have been created from those millions of unconscious meanings we made about everything. Changing our thoughts ultimately changes our lives.
Study after study confirms that happy people live healthier and longer lives than unhappy ones.
Happiness is not a luxury to be enjoyed only when all the circumstances in our lives are perfect – it is fundamental to our quality of life, health and longevity now.
The second path to happiness lies in changing our personal world – to create the work, activities, relationships, experiences and things which bring us joy, peace of mind, purpose and success.
When we pour our greatest creativity, energy, enthusiasm and love into doing what we enjoy and are passionate about, the ideal conditions for success and fulfilment are right there.

Study Study Study
wanted to go down town today to look at some stuff… den didnt manage to go as it was raining so heavily for most of the day and i couldnt find anyone free to accompany me… guess thats what happens when some are workin while some are studying and while some are not…
anyway, went out to the interchange mac to study with khai even though we were studying different modules… haha… at least there’s someone to accompany me study outside… hopefully i will be able to find others ^^ managed to finish up econs chapter 2… i think i got roughly the idea already, but i think i still need some explaining to be done before i fully understand it… heehee…
im still deliberating whether or not to drive to school tomorrow… i really feel like driving to have a feel of driving long distances on my own and to experience what its like to drive to school… but then, im kinda afraid of driving there… getting lost, and the fear of something happening to the car is what’s holding me back… *sigh*… what should i do? =(

Studying Buddies
i realised its so hard to find studying buddies now… at this point of time, some of us have already started working so there’s no need to study… some of us are slacking away meaning not working or studying at the moment… while the rest of us are studying away… but the thing is we are all pursuing different degrees, so the modules will definitely be different… and since we are doing different degrees/modules, our timetable will also be different… so its pretty hard to find someone who is free at the same time to study with u, and especially so to find someone who’s free the same as u as well as doing the same modules…
haiz… i want go out study, but cant find anyone… zZzZzZzZzZz… i dont mind if we are studying different things, its the company that im looking for =pPp

An Unexpected Prawning Trip
just finished my tutorial… haha… so i decided to blog… lala… kind of tiring but i enjoy blogging XD
weeeeee… have been driving for the whole day today… firstly, drove to church… den to simei where we had lunch and made a pair of new specs =X den drove home… afterwhich i drove to downtown east to meet up with seng and kelvin… followed by driving to seng’s place to collect some stuff, and back to pasir ris pond to do some prawning… again back to seng’s place to watch soccer and at last back home to end the day… heehee… so fun… but i need to watch the petrol consumption though, otherwise i will have a big hole in my pocket next month…
like i said earlier, i made a new pair of specs today… the current one has too many scratches already… its been through thick and thin with me ever since i got it for my army days… haha… 2 years of outfield and training together… its time to give it a well-deserved rest =pPp i ordered a totally opposite colour specs… my current one is red on the inside and black on the outside… my new one is totally white… haha… white vs black… it looks so cool… lol~ gona collect in on wed after school… im thinking of getting contact lens… but im not sure if my eyes are suitable or not… if it is, den great… if its not den it would have been a waste of money… haiz… how how how… and i have to pay for it myself as well… b0000…
we did not plan to go prawning today… it was more of an inpromtu kind of thing… one min we were thinking of places to go and activities to do, the next moment someone suggested to go prawning or overnight fishing… but the thing was that feng had to work tml so overnight fishing is out of the question… we met up with feng n qing at the pasir ris pond… haha boy were we late… lolz… we paid for 4hours which was at $45 total and split into 2 rods instead of 1… so 2hours for each rod… can u believe it that at the end of 2 hours, we only caught one prawn between the 5 of us? how pathetic… we are wondering if there are actually how many prawns in that particular pond… for the whole time we were there, we didnt see anyone managing to catch any at all… we were lucky i suppose… but we let it go into the pond again as we did not want to bother bringing it back since it was only one… haha… shucks… we forgot to take a photo with our prize catch =pPp
anyway that ends the first day of my driving adventures if u can call it that… now i have to go figure out how to get to some other places…

YAY !!! I Got the car to myself for the whole of next week
yippie !!! i get to use the car for the whole of next week, starting from today all the way till next sat :D … heheheh… im gona drive and drive and drive… only thing is i have to pay for the petrol… lolz… so far my plan is going accordingly… time to move on to the next step le ;)
sometimes i just dont understand the way parents think… why cant they just go straight to the point instead of having to come up with so many different explanations and end up making a simple thing become so complicated… haiz…
i realised that i seem not to know who i am anymore… whats the cause of this? i dont know or should i say i dont want to say… those close to me should have guess it i think… i may have said it a couple of times already, but IM NO LONGER THE PERSON I USED TO BE… the happy-go-lucky, carefree, worries-free, stress-free guy is no longer around… well at least i learnt how to put on a bravefront in front of others… not wanting to affect others seems to be what i wish to do…

范玮琪 – 我们的纪念日
我的心忽然又活了 从再见到你的那一刻
原来我也有过这样的激动 只是在习惯自我保护后忘了
想聊的故事太长了 反而就都沉没的笑着
金色阳光洒在你双手上头 看起来好暖让我想紧紧握着
这是我们的纪念日 纪念我们开始对自己诚实
原以为相爱的人放弃骄傲 说少了你生活淡的没有味道
这是美丽的纪念日 纪念我们能重新认识一次
有些事要流过泪才看得到 不求完美爱的更远 要过的更好
我用寂寞来惩罚我 看着你走过要什么当时不说
此刻能有你倾听我心情的转折 那是种当天以后让人想哭快乐
