Chian

Gan Hui Chian, this post is for you.
There's counselling due tomorrow but I cannot contain my emotions right now.



You make me wanna cry, you stupid girl.
Stress is taking its toll on me.
With camp and assignments due this week.
My phone had to join in the fun by deleting all my messages and CONTACTS.
For no apparent reason.
Do not ask me to check my SIM card pls, cos I already did tat.

So indulged in self-pity I was,
until Gan Hui Chian had to tag me in her FB status asking everyone to cheer me up and send me their contacts.

Aargh.

That did it.
I cried.
It was such a simple gesture but it warmed every cell in my body.

See why I hate you now Gan Hui Chian?

Rawr in the New year

Chinese New Year was a blast. =)
I had a great time.

Happy Tiger Year everyone!


It wasn't so much on the new clothes or ang paus,
but the time we spent together,
whether with family or with friends.
CNY somehow gives us the perfect reason just to meet up and renew our ties. =)

I love you peeps. =)

It was also this time of joyous feelings that i was constantly reminded of the impermanence of life.
How vulnerable, how weak, how uncertain.

The dragon boat tragedy in Penang left my heart with a hole,
it wasn't just some news in the papers.
This time, it was much closer than you think.
It struck nearer to home,
and the fact that my cousin was a good friend to the victims only made it worse.

And then it was the road accident one of my high school junior was involved in.
Still in coma, and showing no signs of recovery yet.
He is the same age as me,
and as I'm blogging,
He's struggling to survive.
Life really isn't fair is it?

And then you ask:
What can we do?
The answer? Nothing.

We can never stop death from invading,
but we can make life a more worthful one.

You have heard this a hundred and one times,
but I'm going to say it again.

Live like it's your last day.
Live like you're dying.

Tats wat Kris allen says too okayy? =)

Live with no regrets.

And while you're at that,
do tell your loved ones how much you love them, okay?

Give them a kiss.


Or just squeeze them hard. =)




p/s: I love you guys.
Each one of you reading this. =)

Exoh.
Back to assignments.

Gong Xi Valentines

Ohmigosh.
Time flies, and it's New Year eve dy.
=(

I have not lost enough weight yet.

So many things to update, so little time.
Will be back to Penang with the Hang Tens by Monday, back on Friday.
Gimme some time kayy?

In the meantime,
Happy CNY and Happy Valentines too.

Enjoy yr holidays, peeps.

Love,
Carmen
