when things begin to change...

There will always be times when things that seem easier to do in the past suddenly become a difficult task now. I've always loved reading story books... those mystery or horror novels (haha!) back when I was in Form 3 or 4. I had the urge to continue that 'hobby' once I've finished SPM... just to relax and improve my vocab. After flipping through a few pages of the Stephen King novel, I just lost the passion for reading anymore. Dunno why... but suddenly I've grown to despise reading such thick books, even if it's only for fun. hah!

I realized that today is the very first time since SPM ended that I actually stayed home all day. haha! It's nice to be totally alone for a while, but I was already bored stiff during the afternoon. heh. All I could think of is finishing my Christmas shopping, which is still not done yet. blek.

Tomorrow is Christmas Eve... woohoo!!! There's this Midnite Mass thingy going on at church, and we'll have the final rehearsal tomorrow morning. It's gonna be fun alrite, but I doubt it when Rev Pat is always there to dampen my holiday mood. haah! Anyway, I tried to strum my dad's guitar just now... and very paiseh to say, I sucked at it. Oh well, I'll just have to learn from the professionals. ;)

help spread e Christmas spirit!

Had to tag along to someone's b-dae dinner just now... aduh, it was soooo boring. Maybe coz I was surrounded by 'old folks' all the time, not forgetting the awkward silences at the table. bleh. I'm glad that it's over now. oh yeah, happy 91st b-dae to Aunty Lim! Can I live until THAT long...? =P

Dunno what happened to me today, but I was sulky throughout the whole day. And the climax was when I was at my mum's shop. Somehow, one of the workers got mad (probably at me) because I forgot to tell her whether the customer wanted normal staple binding or ring binding. Then, even my stupid cousin made jokes about how "blur" I am to the other workers... embarrassing me in front of so many people! I really thought that I deserve much more respect... Anyway, I couldn't take it and asked mum to send me back home. I may have cooled down by now, but how I wish I could say those two words Donald Trump made famous to the workers... "You're Fired!!!" muahahaha. *wicked smirk*

Other reasons why I pulled a long face: mum is always too busy to bring me out to do my Christmas shopping... yeah I know, she's BUSY. And I am still not done with my Christmas shopping! Okay, call me selfish. Hope to find the perfect gifts by tomorrow...

the old has passed away, the new has come

Why do good things in life always have to end so fast? They come surprising you, then in the blink of an eye, leaves just like that. All is left are memories you can't buy anywhere else. Sometimes sweet, sometimes bitter. But whatever the experiences you have gained, they were all there to serve a definite purpose.

The present does not linger. That's why we must always cherish it. Live it. Enjoy it to the fullest. Make full use of it to guarantee a better tomorrow. One of my mottos in life is not to take things for granted. Even the smallest detail or event that happened to you might not seem important now, but you would be surprised at how much it will impact your future, be it near or distant. And those tiniest detail might just turn out to be your most magical moment in life.

Just like your favourite TV show which had just ended, you wish that happier things in life will always continue on. But if that happens, there would be nothing special about life anymore. Everyday will be the same, boring routine. Where's the fun in it?

These moments that you treasure at heart will fade away in time, but will always abide in our hearts forever. That's why I want to make the most of every opportunity. Who cares if I fail to fulfill my target? Like they say, it's wiser to try and risk a 50/50 percent chance of winning, than to not trying at all. One thing's for sure, every effort that you put in will surely bear its fruits, sooner or later.

~ my thoughts, after watching the last episode of Sex and the City, "The Farewell".~

The year 2004 is also ending, giving way to year 2005. A brand new start, a brand new chance. Who knows of all the possibilities that could happen to us...? =P

christmas tis de season to praise Him

Kids these days are getting more and more immature. Maybe this only applies to a few people I've met. Sorry to say, "Kids... GROW UP!!!" I know as a senior, it's my duty to help them get along with the other youths. But at times they really annoy me... whatever it is, I'll take it as a test from Him and just be patient. haha!

Went to the "Welcome to my world" concert at main church just now with all the youths and teens. I really like the christmas carols... the choir's voice was really enchanting and beautiful. wow... wonder when will I be able to sing like that.. hehe. Then, as usual, we went to Dalight for late supper. haha! The salad cha kueh was not bad... Eric was busy taking candid pics of everyone the whole time. haha!

Anyway, this week I look forward to spending more time doing serious shopping. hehe!

hello hello new handphone!

Just wanna share my joy with everyone about something historical that happened today. I bought myself a new handphone!!! hehe! It's a brand new NOKIA 6670... just bought it this afternoon with Debbie. Then, we watched "The Incredibles", though have to miss the first few minutes of the movie. haha! Overall, the movie is really nice and funny, I especially like Jack-jack... the CUTE baby turned crazy monster. haha!
