Wet Iftar
Dis time round, there were even fewer pple. ade busy, ade step ade meeting, ade bubble....seme nk kene strike! hahhaha but oh well, it was raining and by the time we got to masjid khalid...kinda wet (luckily got payung...shad asked muk 2 bring haha) but other than dat, walking ard was fun! getting dendeng, ayam percik and also got myself a baju kurung hahaha thx to my fashion consultants, muz and azmeer....yg diden do much. juz stood around and sae 'ok pe...' haha we also played dis game...sape paling byk jumpe org yg kenal. Harun won. He knew like 5 pple...i oni found 2 frens. I need 2 expand my social network!
Fazli gave me dis book to reach...'When to quit and when to stick around'. Its basically abt this concept of 'dip'. Sometimes when u set ur sights to do something, it might be successful at first and ur interest for it is like woah! but after awhile, it becomes mundane and no matter how hard u try, u find it so difficult to excel/succeed. Dats when u face dis loooooong dip. If u survive it, then u will find urself on the road to success. But, how do u noe when to quit? When is it dat its a dip OR if its juz a dead-end. Ure not meant to succeed in wadever ure doing now. Sometimes its hard to quit coz ure juz comfortable or too scared to do so.
So how??? hahaha u can actually apply dis concept even to relationships. Think....the lousy period when u keep quarelling. But once u hold thru...its comfortable and sweet. Budden, how do u noe how long the dip will last? perhaps its not even a dip...its time for u to re-think how much u wan 2 be in this r/ship. Wen is it dat enough is enough?

The Wonders of School
This is why i enjoy nus life so much. Coz of the pple i have here who are juz totally crazy but i feel have so much potential and so much diversity of skills/talents that i do hope we keep in contact as we transit into the working world. Its the yearly K2P iftar at Arts Musollah...a tradition we have kept 3 years running. Altho dis year abit mellowed down coz many couldnt make it, it still had that spark of bonding, crazyness and pure laughter hahaha
I thank u all for coming down and making it possible and realli an enjoyable evening/night :) Well, for those who couldnt make it...another outing...Geylang Bazaar nez thurs ahahkz and i think gonna 'qiyam' as well...lom confirm :)

Weekend Getaway
Imagine dragging urself out of bed on a rainy Sunday morning at 7am arghhh...hahaha but it was well worth it :D cip asked me to accompany him to buat name cards for MS exco, but he conveniently forgot to mention he was goin for a seminar as well at some hotel at Stulang Laut. So terpaksa ikot haha but it turned out to be a very fruitful session. It was a preview of the ESQ training conference and i think i learned quite a bit so gonna share some stuff :) bulan baik....
it is common that we measure success based on IQ, and tend to forget about two more 'weapons' at our disposal - Emotional Quotient and Spiritual Quotient. By utilizing these and synergyzing them will provide us with a better attitude towards doing things and since attitude makes up 80% whereas skills and knowledge only 20%...success is realli dependent on our attitude :) We seek to search for happiness, but wen are we truly happy? Is our ends really an end or are they means to another end? How is it that we need/desire/crave for honesty, love, patience?
It truly was an eye opener...i do wanna go for the training workshop...and network with pple. Learning for the sake of learning ":)
just a thot: happiness is wen ure rid of jealousy/revenge/anger/sorrow/wanting to be mean

Revelations
Even as work is piling up, i find myself grateful that i have many people to turn to, to juz tok cock and during these talking cock sessions....once u extract the essence of it (chey bah!) it actually makes sense. Be it life in general, or some nonsensical theory like the washing machine or shit happens, it still a bag of laughs and insight.
The long and arduous journey to Changi Hospital on Friday, sampai tertido2 atas bahu hakim...so gay ahhahaha or experiencing an atmosphere of grief with lil hope as my friend's dad is fighting for his life in ICU to the twister-twisting, bingo-playing, bbq at Changi Beach to nice walks at 2am in the morning to K2P soccer game (which we 'won'!) and to simple mealtime chats at NUS....revelations and lessons keep coming in.
We learn everyday that everything happens for a reason, be it a blessing in disguise or a retribution of past acts. We need to keep faith and maintain that patience is indeed a virtue in trying times. When you feel that your situation is bad....think again. Somebody else might face an even greater challenge than u. But let not such things affect u so, and if u need to let ur heart out, so many are there ard u to make u laugh till u drop flat on the ground or just provide that silence of listening.
And friends....haha i learned in High School Musical 2 (btw, its kinda sappy la the show haha) dat sometimes, when ure so focussed on ur goal, u may not realise u abandon pple along the way. Perhaps its the nature of a materialistic pursuit. I apologize if i had abandoned any of u in any way any time before....And of coz....you get to achieve ur goal much easier IF you have social capital and in the higher echeloens of the class structure :p

Macro Goals
When you wake up everyday, what do you actually look forward to? Friends? Studies? Relationships? Excitement? Ke-gila-an?
Do you live day by day or do you live with an end in mind? Do you have micro goals or macro goals?
Lets say life is a railway track. Stations represent the different goals in your life. Some you have passed, some u may have stopped at a station interchange and diverted and may come back to the main track. How far more will you go? Do you keep track of the number of stations in front of you? Some are big, some are smaller....but stations all the same.
So....what do you look forward to when you wake up in the morning? Maybe....you just wake up and look forward to sleeping at nite :)
