just a simple log

“We cannot change the cards we are dealt, just how we play the hand.”

“Your critics are your ones telling you they still love you and care.”

“I’m always reminded of when I went there and people said, do you think your expectations are too high?  And I said, you ever see the movie Charlie and the Chocolate Factory?  Willy Wonka and The Chocolate Factory?  Where Gene Wilder says to the little boy Charlie, he’s about to give him the chocolate factory.  He says “Well Charlie, did anybody ever tell you the story of the little boy who suddenly got everything he ever wanted?”  Charlie’s eyes get like saucers and he says, “No, what happened to him?”  Gene Wilder says, “He lived happily ever after.””

I WANT A DOG!!

I don’t mind when our conversations get a little boring. I don’t mind when we’re texting and we run out of things to say. When we’re hanging out together but not doing anything, well I don’t mind that either. It doesn’t matter to me because I finally realized that when you’re truly in love, every moment spent together doesn’t have to be breath-taking, that you’ll still feel like the luckiest person alive even through the most unexciting times, and you will feel completely comfortable together because you know that just having each other is more than enough.

Somehow, this is so true. Even when you know what’s the best option, it’s just so hard to do it.

it’s important to appreciate what you have now before you try to pursuit what you want.

I guess it’s somehow good to have someone waiting for you somewhere, and to have someone you wait for. It seems like a good thing to have that commonplace somewhere for the couple.. oh no! the 21 years being alone had made me desperate ha!

Finally found a job which starts on 14 Feb. The times after ORD without a job is a killer, with tons of depressive periods and mind thinking too much of weird things! Seems to me that I’m sort of a workaholic, and cant really enjoy life without working!

Started working at RP, it has been a week and overall it’s not that bad. My teammates are rather nice people, currently, hope things will stay good and fun for this short three months! Had a little problem with the way the other group work but shouldn’t be bothered with it too much and just care about my own area! Hope can learn more things while working!!

Here’s some interesting fact about RP:

1) they run on a paper-less system, meaning mostly everything is computer based! That include tests as well!!! Really cant imagine having to look at a computer for test! I need to see the hardcopy before i can get into the mood of test, if not it will be like a game!

2) there’s rather a lot of nice cheap food there, the best so far is the cafe. Main course with drinks is only $4! It’s cheaper than most western food without drinks!!

3) they have their own restaurant, like the one in TP, for their student to gain experience. Heard that their 5 course meal is at $15! still haven’t have the chance to try it yet, wonder when will it be open to the staff!

After May, when my contract will end, I thought of applying for a post in TTSH department. There’s a department doing prosthetic and orthotic, hope to get a feel of how is it like to be working in that field. (the field i’m currently wanting to work in) See how will things goes in May again!

Have you ever thought of something super crazy then suddenly started doing it, and after awhile you realised that it’s just impossible and stopped. And look at yourself in the mirror wondering to laugh or to cry. HAHAHA

A dream will forever be a dream till you do something. The moment you decide to take action, you are making the dream a reality.

my tumblr should be named “realization”. I begin most of my post with “I just realised that….”

do you ever have the feeling that while trying so hard to chase after something, you actually had lost so much. In the end, you never got the thing you chase after and had lost so much precious thing that you hold dear.

Happiness is not something you can chase after, you just got to be yourself and it will come naturally. So from today onwards, I’ll just be myself and work hard in life. The rest will be up to God to bless me!

Just realised that you can never determine how important you are in someone’s life. You just got to be yourself and they will value you according to their scale. You don’t have to try hard to get into their good book, sometimes doing so will just have the opposite effect. Just do everything from the heart, all actions and gestures should come naturally from your heart. Trying to please the person should not be the main motivation to do something for someone, of course you will hope that the person will benefit from your actions, which should be your secondary motivation.

Sometimes you just try so hard to be someone else, you will just end up not knowing who you really are.

Each person is unique in their own ways. It’s always a mixture of the good and the bad. What you lack might be found on one of your friend, this is for you to learn and polish yourself. What you are good at, just let it shine so that others can see it and learn from you.

You don’t have to try very hard to be someone you admire, you don’t have to follow every single thing they do. Just learn from them the good and change yourself slightly so that you can correct your flaws. While correcting your flaws, stay true to yourself and do not forget who you really are inside.

I just realised I had been trying too hard to lead another person’s life and had not been true to myself. It’s time to get back!! 

Realised that tennis taught me quite a few life lessons.

1) You cannot hesitate to retrieve any ball

Things is the same for life, you cannot hesitate to fight for what you want. The more you hesitate, the lesser the chance for you to get the opportunity. So don’t hesitate too much. When you wanna do something, just do it!

2) It doesn’t matter if your ranking is lower, you just got to give your best.

This is more for studies or in a more competitive situation. It doesn’t matter if your result is lower or anything, you just got to give in your all to prove your worth. If you are going against better people, you just got to put in more effort to win. Even if you loss to them, at least you know you had tried your best and it means that you must practice more!

Ok, so far only have this two will have more next time when i watch more games!
