Monday-New...

Oh, its such a wonderful feeling to wake up on a monday yet feeling so good that I have finally moved out....My new room feels good...Anything new is always good, at least at the beginning. I didn't have to look at gruesome ugly faces as soon as i opened my eyes. Instead, I woke up today looking at the face of hope....
Life is nothing without hope...

moooooooo-ving.......

oh,yes......moving is sooooooo exhausting!!!!i really need some good sleep before some good blogging!

No....

No...oh,no!its not about nitric oxide!

It is all about saying, 'no' to a question and accepting 'no' as an answer.

I had a lot of problems learning to say 'no' as I was use to replying people's requests affirmatively. However, along the way, I realised that not denying anyone a favor or anything as a matter of fact, was very troubling indeed. Hence, I started to include that word in my vocabulary. I would like to point out that, my change did not make everyone happy, but eventually, it helped me a lot. However, I still feel there are many people who just cannot accept 'no' for an answer. Why do they bother to ask a question if they can't accept any answer? It is merely because they are not actually giving a choice in their question, instead imposing their idea onto others or just simply giving no choice at all.
I have felt the effect of being choice-less before and trust me friends, it is not a good feeling.
However, for all those out there who are not used to saying 'no', it is never too late to start.
Have a nice day!

Browsing before buying...

I would like to share something I observed in the hypermarket the other day. There are many kinds of consumers but here I would like to discuss about 3 kinds: 1) Choosy,  2) Cincai (http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=cincai ) , and ; 3) Loyal

The explanation for the types listed:

1) Choosy type- they make a point to thoroughly look through all the different kinds of brands of a product of interest, compare them in every single aspect possible: size, contents, weight, price, packaging, date of manufacture, expiry date, country of production, ext., etc.

2) Cincai type- those who seem to be either randomly picking and tossing things into the shopping cart or performing similar act with the help of a scribbled form of shopping list.

3) Loyal type- these are the people who make promoters feel useless. This is because, loyal consumers never think twice before buying the exact product they are familiar with. These group of people never think of changing their current choice for any reason.


After figuring out this, I spent some time to analyze which category I fell into and I realised that I somehow fall into category 1, Choosy type. Although I am only a mild version, I still feel the effects of it. I take a long time to choose a product, especially if the durability is of a longer period and more costly things.
Let me tell you the benefits of being choosy and performing surveys of all kinds before purchasing anything:
i.   Satisfaction after buying the product. We tend to be happy that we have found and gotten the best of its kind.
ii.  A sense of achievement. It feels good that after all the work, we have gotten a good deal and that we are capable of choosing (basically a boost of ego).

The downside to this attitude is, that we might get too obsessed and loose direction and eventually end up wasting too much time and energy till we might be too tired even before getting the product.

However, e-shopping is a good choice for most products as it lets us be choosy and yet saves time and energy compared to window shopping physically!

So,now, you can be choosy all you want, thanks to the worldwide web!!!

Yesterday's leftovers

Usually, people tell you not to procrastinate. However, I realised that procrastination is just like leftovers from the day before. If we don't get to finish the food, we leave it in the fridge and heat it up the next day to finish it up and also fill our stomach at the same time. Despite it being a useful act, the nutritional value of the food tends to be reduced a good deal. Just like that, doing a work later reduces the quality of the outcome in most cases besides the time factor. At the end, its better late than never. Because when the job is not done at all, it is like wasted food.

Hungry..

I am so hungry. All my energy had been completely drained out fr the past 3 days. I have been sleeping for an average of 3hours daily, facing alot of stress from all kinds of ways. Finally, on thursday morning at 2am, i settled most of the things. But still, I never gt the chance to catch up with my sleep till 3.45pm...Sleeping at 3.45pm, despite all the numerous phone calls and disturbances, I managed to sleep till 11.30pm...Basically, I missed dinner and am just so hungry, I could eat my pillow up. I am going to go n grab something to eat...

When the Sun started to sink...

Today, I only found peace as the almighty Sun started to sink.....

Many of us would have experienced this before: the comfort of the approaching darkness. As the blanket of night unfolds upon the day, somehow our worries seem to lessen in mass.....just like a shrinking tumor.....

The relief we get is so warm that we can make it through even the coldest nights...This feeling is not because of the day ending but its because there is a new day that awaits us and greets us with a smiling bright ray of Sunlight accompanied with hope of something better on the very next day....

The fact if the next day bears same problems or yields results otherwise, will only be revealed to those whose heart is filled with courage to wake up, all ready to get through another with battles much anticipated with great agony. We plan all we want, yet we face unexpected things. Everyone of us, wake up as a fighter ready to face the different war tactics in life. Yes, we are all born fighters! The only thing that makes anyone of us outstanding and unique is the attitude. We can choose to wake up with only the best plans to overcome all possible obstacles one might encounter in a daily life, or we can add a dash of smile with the additional plan of enjoying every small goodness that comes in our way!

Even without the smile, we can still lookout for a reason for that very thin, curved, line to be painted and spread across our face before darkness befalls upon us again, for, if we think too much, the days will just brush past us unnoticed...sadly, that is all the time wasted!

The Artist In Me

Hello friends!!! What you have witnessed above is the artist in me that only projects itself during boring lectures..To tell you the truth, I am very bad at drawing (my personal opinion although many people beg to differ). The pencils, pens and papers that reach my hands often end up scribbled with poems or random thoughts and notes rather than such lines(not words) that end up as a pattern or any form of drawings.

As I had told earlier, this is the result of a human being who has deviated from the usual routine of  ' getting up late n rushing for class'!!! Look how my mind has swirled its way around leaving very narrow space in between the maze of my thoughts. I do believe that our scribblings indicate the state of our minds and therefore, that is the state of the mind of an extremely bored student with numerous other thoughts besides the essentials study stuff!!!

Up Early...

Its been ages since i slept n gt up so early in the morning. I can't believe I slept by 1.15am and got up by 5.30am!!!! Yes, there wasn't an alarm involved!!!! I am so proud of myself although the reason i slept early was due to a splitting headache and a really horrible mood and depressing state of mind.
Somehow I am guessing that this is just one of those unusual moments, nothing that might turn into a habit.

I miss spending time with some very important people in my life. I am wondering when everything is going set a constructive environment for me. As much as I would say that I have gained alot in life, I would also say that I have lost alot. Sometimes, I feel I have lost some really important things and people all because of my adamant nature towards my choice of career and also my perseverance or maybe it is all just too early to be judged.

Can you imagine the state of mind of a person who got up early, yet seems so confused and depressed? I am just so afraid to think of how the rest of the day is about to pass by. I would still say that I am waiting in 'anticipation'!!!

Weeping Sense

In the dark we weep sometimes,

forgetting that He still hears us.

Let the silent nights whisper sense

into the right earlobe of ours.

Sometimes,sense vanishes in air,

letting life to blur away till only

mosaic of colours appear in vision,

the mosaic that seem so artful.

That art we will never understand,

for art is only for the artist to know,

let not that blind us or stop us,

from trying to get to the bottom.

In a SUPER boring lecture...

Monday blues will never change even if the world is about to end......imagine sitting in the classroom fr a 8am lecture which refuses to end even till 11am...

This is the result:

Knowledge-Ultimately

The forbidden apple tastes best,

for that is the reason its forbidden,

leading to realization of mankind,

dragging sins along with it,

yet, we named it knowledge.

Ignorance is bliss, little of knowledge

is dangerous thing, yet we try to learn,

just because we love the nature of danger.

Ironically, everything we thought is good,

is killing us so effectively, so slow,

so smooth, unnoticed, yet so deadly.

Curiosity kills.

So, as you can see what kind of mental stimulation a boring lecture can give to a student on a monday morning!!!!

Still New

So,its my second day blogging and it still feels weird. I had a pretty short day today since i only got up at 3pm....
The valuable lesson i learnt today: Spend the first pay in buying a house....no matter how small the house is, its important to have a place to call as your own.
Basically, I cannot wait to gt my own place. I have found some real kicking awesome stuff for the deco of a home yet to be bought.
Another thing is, I realized how similar people close to us can think...I realized that the few people who truly care for me seem to give it all to do anything to put me out of misery...

Life is a bliss when there are those who care, no matter far or near, they can make a difference... I LOVE THEM!!!

*hopefully tomorrow I will improve my blogging skills... 

Old Writer, New Blogger

Welcome to my blog..This is my first time blogging although i have been thinking of it for a very long time. I realised that as time passed by, some things that are commonly said are just so untrue.
Who told that life is short?Only those who spend their time thinking of life tend to realize that the length of life is measured not just by the friends they make, or the lessons learnt,or the knowledge obtained, or the wealth one possess. Yes, my dear friends, its far more than that. It is parts and parcel of a person's personal story only their subconscious minds can explain. Personally, I feel that life is too much for us to take it all in. The best we can do is absorb whatever we can, give whatever we afford and  retrospect in order to keep improving.

Just a simple thought!
THANK YOU!
