Sigh-.
I'm feeling so depressed, stress.
I've so many things on my mind.
Too much things until I don't know what to do, where to start, how to end.
Feel like talking to somebody & pour out my sorrows to.
Yeah, but everyone has got their own problems, I shan't add my unhappiness & my problems to them.
I'll solve them myself I guess.
I'm just feeling so....
Urghh...
The feeling is so depressing.
I just don't know what to do now.
My mind is in a complete state of mess.
Well,
I'm loss for words.
I just don't know where my goal now is.
I really don't know.
Someone help me please.
Save me.
with love,

Ah well, all my posts are deleted. Those posts are super meaningful though. So I guess I'll have to repost, which means today post is super duper long. Bear with it though, cause all these posts are super meaningful! I'll just paste the post one by one, mind with the dates yeah? :D:D:D:D
Alright, let's start of with today! Ahh, School's boring anyway.
Went through my past yr archive, & I said before that I have to go through a huge hurdle, && I've made it! haha!
I'm so proud of myself!
&& I did not cry okays:D:D:D:D
Anyway, I'm getting motivated today to study! So I shall study later on(:
Nothing much also, just share another meaningful post with you:
Friends are like balloons; once you let them go, you might not get them back. Sometimes we get so busy with our own lives and problems that we may not even notice that we've let them fly away. Sometimes we are so caught up in who's right and who's wrong that we forget what's right and wrong. Sometimes we just don't realize what real friendship means until it is too late. I don't want to let that happen so I'm gonna tie all of my friends to my heart so I never lose you.

Had dental appointment today. Well, apparently, I got to get use to it soon since I'm gonna have it for 2yrs. 2yrs. Not long, not short?
It doesn't hurt that much though, just that chewing hurts. Yes, chewing really hurts. What does that mean? No solid food. Yupp.
Okay, enough of my ranting. Let's get straight to the point. A meaningful post today I suppose.
Which would you choose? Coffee or Cup?
A group of alumni, highly established in their careers, got together to visit their old university professor. Conversation soon turned into complaints about stress in work and life.
Offering his guests coffee, the professor went to the kitchen and returned with a large pot of coffee and an assortment of cups porcelain, plastic, glass, crystal, some plain looking, some expensive, some exquisite - telling them to help themselves to hot coffee.
When all the students had a cup of coffee in hand, the professor said: "If you noticed, all the nice looking expensive cups were taken up, leaving behind the plain and cheap ones.
While it is but normal for you to want only the best for yourselves, that is the source of your problems and stress.
What all of you really wanted was coffee, not the cup, but you consciously went for the best cups and were eyeing each other's cups.
Now if life is coffee, then the jobs, money and position in society are the cups.
They are just tools to hold and contain Life, but the quality of Life doesn't change.
Some times, by concentrating only on the cup, we fail to enjoy the coffee in it."
Don't let the cups drive you...
Enjoy the coffee instead...

Hello people! I'm back. Actually is not that I went M.I.A, it's just that it's weird when I don't pen down my feeling. So I guess I'll be back blogging, but only when I'm free.
Perhaps once a week? Rest assured I won't leave my blog in the lurch.:DDDD
Just to share with you something I saw on the internet:
Story of the egg, carrot and coffee beans.
A young woman went to her mother and told her about her life and how things were so hard for her.
She did not know how she was going to make it and wanted to give up.
She was tired of fighting and struggling.
It seemed as one problem was solved a new one arose.
Her mother took her to the kitchen.
She filled three pots with water.
In the first, she placed carrots, in the second she placed eggs and the last, ground coffee beans. She let them sit and boil without saying a word.
In about twenty minutes she turned off the burners.
She fished the carrots out and placed them in a bowl.
She pulled the eggs out and placed them in a bowl.
Then she ladled the coffee out and placed it in a bowl.
Turning to her daughter, she asked, "Tell me what do you see?"
"Carrots, eggs, and coffee," she replied.
She brought her closer and asked her to feel the carrots.
The daughter did and noted that they were soft.
She then asked her to take an egg and break it.
After pulling off the shell, she observed the hard-boiled egg.
Finally, she asked her to sip the coffee.
The daughter smiled, as she tasted its rich aroma.
The daughter then asked. "What's the point, mother?"
Her mother explained that each of these objects had faced the same adversity - boiling water - but each reacted differently.
The carrot went in strong, hard and unrelenting.
However after being subjected to the boiling water, it softened and became weak.
The egg had been fragile.
Its thin outer shell had protected its liquid interior.
But, after sitting through the boiling water, its inside became hardened.
The ground coffee beans were unique, however.
After they were in the boiling water they had changed the water.
"Which are you?" she asked her daughter.
"When adversity knocks on your door, how do you respond?
Are you a carrot, an egg, or a coffee bean?"
Think of this: Which am I?
Am I the carrot that seems strong, but with pain and adversity, do I wilt and become soft and lose my strength?
Am I the egg that starts with a malleable heart, but changes with the heat?
Did I have a fluid spirit, but after a death, a breakup, a financial hardship or some other trial, have I become hardened and stiff?
Does my shell look the same, but on the inside am I bitter and tough with a stiff spirit and a hardened heart?
Or am I like the coffee bean?
The bean actually changes the hot water, the very circumstance that brings the pain.
When the water gets hot, it releases the fragrance and flavor.
If you are like the bean, when things are at their worst, you get better and change the situation around you.
When the hours are the darkest and trials are their greatest, do you elevate to another level?
For me, I am both the egg and the coffee, I get better and adapt more quickly to the situation going around me, at the same time finding my trueself in the process. Whatever the outcome is, I am still myself and my "shell" remains unchanged like nothing has ever happen. However, deep inside my heart, the "shell" has cracked and once it is broken, it can never be healed.
What about you? Are you the carrot, egg or coffee beans?
Finally, I end this post with another quote which I find rather meaningful:
"If you can react the same way to winning and losing, that is a big accomplishment.
That quality is important because it stays with you the rest of your life."
Chris Evert (1954 - )
note: realise I hardly use quotes right? cause i'm lazy to go quoteland. LOL

Hello everyone, I'm back.
Actually I'n not supposed to be blogging. I've promised Angelia to finish studying my physics today & I'm gonna proved to her. Well, too much information to remember so I'm slacking for a while now. =/
Anyway, just an update over this weekend:
Monday, 14April2008
Nothing much actually, just a visit to the dentist. Had extraction, but I swore it wasn't that pain actually. But the information given may scare you abit yeah. Other than that was still fine.(:
At least, I'll not have extraction again in the near time. Oh good(:
Tuesday, 15April2008
Couldn't remember what happen on that day. Perhaps nothing much in particular?
Wednesday, 16April2008
Oh god, PE was a slacker. Did not even play any of the games. Was too lazy to do so hur. LOL
Thursday, 17 April2008
Today! Nothing much. No ASAP for chem. Went out to eat with Angelia & Jasmine. They started talking about braces thingy again. Both of them wanted to do & I think they are going to drag Shin with them? Cause Ching has alr done & I'm on my way to doing.! LOL. It's so lame I know.
Nothing much alr then!
Oh ya, Happy birthday to YiS. 15yrs of friendship alr. Remembered we first met since we were ard 18mths and moving on to the same kindergarten, same pri sch. Although we are in different sec sch, we are still having the same tuition classes. So, I think the friendship bond is still there. 15yrs is hard to come by yeah, where on earth can you know a friend for 15yrs? Almost there. But, good luck in your upcoming chinese o lvl. That goes to the rest of my friends too!
*Well, seeing everyone studying makes me freaked out. Oh gosh, I'm so stressed by it can. Mid-yr, O lvl when is studying ever gonna stop. I think I'll die out of exhaustion one day. I'm so tired. I just wanna take a break. A really good break. But that day can never happen. I know. It's just my wishful thinking on my part. Spent too much time here alr. Shall get back to studying.
Tkcare everyone.
