Arrival

I was just gonna wait for tomorrow, Tuesday, to post it but here I am, in the very last minutes of Monday. Although there will be so much to write about tomorrow (even deeper) as it's Tuesday (again), it's 11-01 (some funny number I make up with) and these stories I'm about to tell, it's not gonna be as much exciting as it is now. Hence, I guess I'm gonna spill it.

1/ The first paper went well.
2/ One of my favourite teachers from high school, whom I consider my so-called big sister, got married yesterday, 09/01/2011.
3/ The first T-shirt I bought with my own money just arrived today. It may sound surprisingly weird to the girls but I don't usually buy those. I saw this T-shirt 2 years ago but never bought it until it was sold out.
4/ I watched 2 amazing movies in the last two days. I spent ages starring at Music and Lyrics a while ago and decided not to buy it somehow. It is magnificent. I also put 21 at the top of my movie list and never had the chance to download it, look for it on the internet to be precise.
5/ I decided to go for another competition by KPMG. I start to wonder why I can't just put off one offer from work or my life is merely about working, which always wears me out but motivates me every single minute. The latter sounds much more appealing...

And that's it. Hah, I actually got through those quite fast.

You know, it's funny when you think you can write something big, inspiring or critical; but you end up with only a list of interesting points that you can't even dig any deeper into them. It is absolutely not a big deal though. This is called blog, not online newspaper. This is the place where you drop down a few lines after an exhausting day merely to remind you about that day when you look back. This is the place you write up some stupid stories merely to realise they're not stupid at all. Even the tiniest and simplest idea can grow from deep down in your mind. Give it some time. This is BLOG, where we should let our ideas flow and don't hold them back. This is a place to share.

You want something more professional? Try newspaper or online articles. They certainly give you more important, world-changing and analytical pieces of reading. I'm, however, not that kind of writer and therefore cannot write something I'm asked to (unless it's essays :D). Be more open to your blog since it's not a place where your ideas are scrutinised :).



Added: Oh, one more thing. I just sold my Satio :).

Old me?

So, another year has gone and I'm sitting here, wondering how I have lived my life so far.

There's one obvious thing that I still don't want to be "normal" in terms of being "like" other people. I still try to say happy birthday, merry Christmas and happy new year in the most unique way as possible to those who I really care. At least, this is the only way I can tell them that they're important in my life. I still don't have the urge to write something to mark New Year. It just happens that I have done quite a lot today. And remember, it's Saturday not Tuesday.

I have also realised that this is only the 60th entry although I started Blogspot in December 2009. Well, it may not be a big deal to you but to me, 60 means "hardly writing". I just can't feel the way I felt with Yahoo!360, where my entries number are around 500 (excluding deleted posts) in 2 - 3 years. I guess sometimes you just can't find the same feelings you had for your first one in any of the later ones, you merely need to move on and accept what is the most comfortable and happiest for you.

I accepted Blogspot as it is a great place for me to share my feelings with the others. Nonetheless, I admit I still have another blog on Opera where all the dark secrets are kept for myself. Hmm, I'm wondering why I can't just put things in one place, use one camera, blah... Perhaps, my life is complicated enough to put up that many layers and I'm glad you're here since it means you've already gone through many layers. One or two of whom are even incredibly close to the real me... :)

I tidied my room today, not carefully but thoroughly. I mean I wasn't that meticulous on any particular thing in my room but I went through every single thing and arranged them into an organised look it should be after a few lazy revision days at home.


It is a little weird when people often tidy up or say goodbye to certain things by the end of the year. It was, however, the beginning of the year to me. Whether a year starts or ends doesn't matter; whether you have changed, moved on or cling to those moments in the past does.

I am still childish at some points. I'm still rushing into things merely because I don't want to miss out any opportunity in life. I'm sure no one would want to think back and say "I could have". Neither do I, especially when I already let it happen... But sometimes, there is something which is so important that I just cannot rush into it. If waiting is what it takes, the door is always open.

I changed my wallpaper in order to have a fresh look for my laptop for another year.

Anything else?

Well, my 2010 has already been expressed in photos, hence no. Talk less and do more. And if you ever want to see how people see the world, look at their photos. To be honest, photos are not merely memories, they can tell you a lot about a person if you're willing to.



For the first day of the second decade in the 21st century, 1/1/2011.
And for the year I had the best Christmas' Eve, Boxing Day and New Year's Eve.
