I gaze at you fervently, wishing you'd turn back.

I am late.

It's late.

Sleep well and everything will unfold itself the very next day when the sun rises again.

Hmm..

Am I suppose to write something about yesterday(past midnight already)?

Haha.. nah...

Some things are better kept... memories are what they should be called.

Feeling left out?
Random emotions n
Comforting ease...

This morning, I had a hangover.

The night was terrible, keep turning here and there. And I dreamed of school and work!

What a way to start the weekend.

It is raining heavily now. Last time, it used to be so emo staring out looking at the droplets of water falling continuously and splashing on the ground. Now, it seems better. I wonder why?

The time has come for me to move on to the next stage of life.

Am I ready? I think not yet.

Had a hectic 4 days. I have a free day today fortunately, so I guess I could stay at home and do some work. Been returning home quite late lately due to my evening classes.

I almost forgot how nice it is to slack at home.I really wanna spend more time at home. I think and I will do just that.

A typical person spends about a quarter of his or her life studying. The next half working to make the ends meet. And the last quarter enjoying the fruits of the labour. Is that the life you want?

Certainly not me!

I know what I want in life, but I am not ambitious.
I want to feel the people around me, yet it is not easy to do so.
I hope to know my friends better, but it takes time and effort from both sides.
I want to communicate more with my family, but just think of when is the last time I really had a good talk with them?

It seems to me that the world has become colder. Or is it the people who resides in it?

Random thoughts

My off day today, so I am pretty happy. School has been stressful and busy. Made some mistakes, learn from them and hope will grow from there. Setbacks suppose to slow you down, but yet make you stronger.

That's life I suppose.

Life is pretty pack for me now,for you know what reason. There is a lot to blog about but I do not have the time yet. Will find one good day to do so.
Meanwhile hope everyone had a good holiday and weekend ahead.
Enjoy!

One week passes by just like that.It was quite a hectic week for me, given the work shift with so much work to do and so much school work piling up waiting for me, hardly any space to breathe.

Not having much life lately, so there isn't really a lot to update on.Some friends tagged me on FB about writing 25 random things about myself. Haven really got the time to do it, and sincere apologies here.

1. I sneeze whenever I eat sweets which are cooling like mentos, Halls etc.
2. I am quite a health freak!
3. I like simplicity.
4. After watching Bryan's travelling show, I feel like travelling again.. to those places mentioned.
5 I like to break things down and do them part by part.

Therefore, that's all folks.
6.I might not remember to finish this 25 things, so I usually will warn people about it and keep their hope low.

Cheers, have a nice weekend peeps!

Get up on your feet and kick the monster.

Maybe it would not matter to you, but it actually means a lot of someone else.

Anything can happen, when you take a chance.

Europe 2008- Groningen

The second day after touching down, we went to a nearby city call Groningen. It is the capital city of the province of Groningen in the Netherlands and was recommended to us as a quiet and peaceful university town.

A bit of background knowledge...

The Martinitoren (Martini Tower) is the highest church tower in the city of Groningen, The Netherlands. The tower is located at the north-western corner of the Grote Markt (Main Square), is part of the Martinikerk (Martini Church). The citizens of Groningen call their tower d'Olle Grieze, meaning the old grey one in the local dialect. It is considered one of the main tourist attractions of Groningen and offers a great view over the city and surrounding area.

















The best thing about Groningen is that all the famous attractions are concentrated at one location. So this make it easy for us. We just need to see the tower, the Martini Tower and the Herestraat,the main shopping street and we are more or less done with Groningen.

Groningen is probably my third favourite city of all times.The reason why I liked Groningen so much is because the food there is great. FYI,It is famous for the food. Barcelona is in this area too. I will blog about it soon. One of the things I will miss is the food and wine over there. Yum yum. Our fav - Kibbeling with Joppiesaus!

Next entry will be on Barcelona! Adios!

Europe 2008 -Amsterdam

Since I am having a little bit of jet lag now, I shall attempt to write a short entry on our first stop Amsterdam,Holland.

There is really nothing much in Amsterdam except for us to transit to Spain. However, I liked the weather when I first stepped foot outside of the train.It was freaking cold when we were there.A first taste of winter I reckon?

We took the map of Amsterdam city and went around exploring this city eagerly, like children going around the chocolate factory looking for their favourite favours.
























Nothing interesting to add on. The following day, we went to a nearby town called Groningen to meet Mommy from Holland. Stay tune!

Europe 2008

Hi all, I am back from Europe after 10 days of fun, food and wine. The damages are probably a big hole in the pocket, dry skin, sore feet from all the walking, and according to ann and patsy: high blood pressure and liver failure.

The next few posts will most likely be about this Europe trip. I am crossing my fingers that it will not bore you to death. There won't be much writing though as I find wordy travel logs very tiring to read, unless of course it is interesting, which I doubt my own capability to achieve that. Pictures(selectively) will be uploaded in batches definitely. The first week's pictures you will probably see very little of me in them, as I am most of the time taking photos for ann. Since there were only two of us initially, if you see pictures of ann in the pictures, you will know where I am(behind the camera of course!).

Oh ya, if you do not know who ann is, do not worry. She has not been mentioned here before until now. A cousin of mine who wishes to tour Europe and who, like me,brought us through an unforgettable journey across Holland,Amsterdam,Croningen and Spain,Barcelona.

I need some time to organise my photos. Hence, I will blog more another day. Ciao!

My parents were away in Japan for the past few days. I am home alone with brother.Kind of not use having no one in the house when I am back home. But well, looking forward to welcoming them.

Whatever you like to call it.Mid Autumn festival or even Mooncake Festival.

When I was really really young, I used to buy those battery operated lanterns. Because it is too bright during the day, me and my brother would arrange to wake up during the middle of the night to just play with the lanterns. Walking around the house in the dark with the lantern on seems so much fun. Some years I would cry because I failed to wake up and miss the night of fun.

When I was slightly older, I liked to go to the playground with my friends to play with candles. Each of us will have one big box of candles and we will just find one spot to light them up and form different shapes and letters. Seeing them melt into wax is such a joyous act to us at that time.

When I get even older, sometimes I would arrange with some friends to go to the park to see people play with candles and carry lanterns.I think I spend two years of mid autumn festival at godmom's house where the group of us have so much fun over the lantern competition and stuffs like that.

Today is mid autumn again.

Don't seem to have the mood this year round.

It's been a long time since daddy and I ate dinner together, just the both of us. :)

Sep 1 is teacher's day.
I am a tutor.
Does that mean I should enjoy the day as well?
I hope I can survive the week..

It has been a few weeks into my new job.All right, maybe I will be enthusiastic for the initial stage. I hope I will have the passion to continue burning the fire.

Yea, I am so looking forward to pursuing it.No more pondering..Work has made me a healthier person, as pal had mentioned.I am working weekend.I sleep early and wake up early. When I am on off, I play harder. That's life I suppose...
