My favorite children's book is about a little prince. Who came to Earth from a distant asteroid. He meets a pilot whose plane has crashed in a desert. The little prince teaches the pilot many things, but mainly about love. My father always told me I was like the little prince. But after I met Adam, I realized I was the pilot all along.

Decided to sleep earlier last night since I cldnt work properly due to the headache which has now disappeared after a good night's sleep :> And I'm up early (I actually woke up at 6ish without the help of an alarm clock :o !), trying to get some work done before school ahaha and, my printer has no ink. But. Some pictures actually look quite nice with the no-ink effect (good accidents woot \m/), and thank God, I actually have got spare ink cartridges lying ard in my room ahahaha

I realised I forgot to bring over one of my small sketchbooks which I left sth kinda relevant to my proj zz but apart from that, there's nothing inside really. Ahh I still cant believe school has started ! Packed week !!

Seems like I'm falling sick easily nowadays :(
Food poisoning, sore throat, and now- a very bad headache ;( I've just applied tiger balm (which does not seem to have any significant effect). Haiyar still need to print my stuff for tmr.. zz

On a happier note, I'm getting a free haircut (and a dye too I think) next week ! In fact, I'm getting paid for it teehee. I kind of still like my hairstyle now though.. ah, the things I'd do for pounds hahaha

Got this pretty coolstuff from Justine :D



So anyway, my prev post on books got me thinking about TV series and drama serials hahaha

You know how like most TV series or drama serials esp long Asian ones like Taiwan's Love (ai) or HongKong's Heart Of Greed (tang xin feng bao), we know that the ending is good (the guy will get together with the girl, the villains will get their retribution, families reunited yadayada), but it's so funny, cos every time when we (or mayb just me and my family or just my mum hahaha) are watching the show (and very engross in it), we feel so pekchek/upset/angry/HAR?!/whatintheworld whenever bad things happen to the good people. Yet we know that at the end of the day, all will be good. Things will just turn out right.

I think it's pretty much the same in real life, at least for me. I know I can trust God to work things out, to right the wrongs, and pull me through whatever I'm gng through. But whenever I'm in a bad situation, I just cant help but feel pekchek/upset/angry/HAR?!/whatintheworld and whine about it. Not that it is wrong to feel those ways (we're human afterall), but sometimes we can get so absorbed in the now, we forget that the future is already in His hands and everything will be okay.

Also, my mum likes to fast-forward all the boring parts. And TV shows are only exciting and wowowweewow when things start to happen ! Arent we glad that life has ups and downs hahahaha I mean, I dont want ppl to fast-forward The Life of Wei Lin hahahaha hello, my TV show's got to be so exciting that ppl record to watch it and never fast-forward OK. Okay, I'm blabbering already.. Time to sleep.

Rae is like a reminder to me when my bedtime, worktime and mealtimes etc shld be. She sleeps a lot. She sleeps more than me. She goes to bed early. Unless she needs to get work done. And even though it's only 2317 over here and I dont feel tired, I feel like I shld sleep too. Why, cos she's asleep now haha and she's really disciplined. When I see her working, I feel as though I'm playing all the time (okay, I am, but school only just started today !) hahaha :s And she eats every meal. Whether or not she's hungry. So it makes me feel like I've to have three meals everyday. Haha, ok incorrect. Hmm. More like, she makes me feel like I shld have my three meals at the proper usual times yknow. Mayb I'm wrong, but from what I observed so far, she eats at ard the same time in the morning, afternoon, and night. And I just eat whenever I'm hungry hahaha

TRUST

I think of life as a good book.

And I believe that God is a good writer and writes good books.
Sometimes, because of the uncertainty of the future, I'm stricken with fear and doubt that I do not dare turn the page and read on. But I know that staying on the same page does not clear things up at all. I may not understand, but I know that He is good, and I will trust in Him and His plans for me.

(Though of course in the case of reading a book, you can actually go straight to the last page and read the ending to find out what happens haha but even if life has a fast forward button, though I'd be tempted to use it, why would I want to do that right. I mean, it's not the ending that makes a book good. Like the saying goes, it's the journey that makes the destination worthwhile, yes ?) (OK. I know, abit irrelevant)(Hahaha)

"I wish this was over."

I knew what Rena would say. The sooner the better. A few months ago, I'd have gone her one further. I would have thought, what was the difference? When she gave birth to the baby, once it had been given away, there would always be something more to lose, a boyfriend, a home, a job, sickness, more babies, days and nights rolling over each other in an ocean that was always the same. Why hurry disaster?

But now I had seen her sitting cross-legged on her bed whispering to her belly, telling it how great the world was going to be, that there were horses and birthdays, white cats and ice cream. Even if Yvonne wouldn't be there for roller skates and the first day of school, it had to count for something. She had it now, that sweetness, that dream.

"Yeah, when it's time, you'll think it's too soon," I said.

ECSTACY

What if. Quite the contrary.
You find that there's nothing more to me than what you've found so far.

Why cant anybody ever hang on to anything? You never believed in sentiment Mother, you saved only your own words, own picture of my grandmother and one of your 4-H cow. Only Claire could hold memory. It was the present she couldn't sort out.

I think my laptop usage has dropped significantly now that I've got mobile internet hahaha, cos I check everything I need to check and do everything I need to do while travelling/ waiting/ anytime when I'm outside and have nothing to do, on my phone. Of course, having a bigger screen's always better but still. I know I know, I keep on gng on abt having internet on my phone, but I think it's really awesome. I think there might a problem when I return to sg and no-internet-on-phone days :s And I've been munching on SpecialK since I got back from LG; lovee the dried strawberries :3

It was nice to have practiced French today (:

FLAWED

Maha was saying this in the car a few days ago, that she felt sorry for those who worked really hard and went overboard in first year, only to find that first year results doesnt count.

I totally understand and know how she feels, maybe not in the aspect of the academic (maybe I dont work very hard, but I did work reasonably hard for my first year okay haa), but in other areas of my life. But feeling sorry or guilty doesnt help me much at all. Sometimes, I feel lik, because I know I dont really deserve it all, I just decide to take a backseat, to wait and see, watch myself fail. And say to myself, see I knew I dint deserve this afterall (such self-indulgence, I know).

I dont know if you know what I mean, but sometimes, I secretly wish for something really bad to happen to me. To test myself; see if I'd actually do something about something, and to find out what my limits are, and who I actually am.


It's days like these I'm reminded of how flawed I really am.
But it also reminds me of how beautiful the love of God actually is.

Omgg. My ears are exclaiming in joy hahahaha the fire alarm has finally gone off. Just when Rae and I were about to step out of our house (we decided to go Primark earlier due to it, you see). Ahh, I feel so grateful for peace and quiet now hehe.

My mobile internet seems to be having abit of a problem since the fire alarm came :s serious zz, it's been trying to connect to whatsapp since forever :((( Good thing I've got unlimited text too ayeee.

I DREAMT OF YOU TODAY

Somehow.
You always seem to find a way to suck out every ounce of energy I have, even as a friend, even in my dreams. I dont care, but I do. I never knew it could get this tiring. Did you even try, you'd ask. I did, I did try. Maybe you dint try hard enough, you'd say. And maybe thats why, I decided to stop trying altogether. Not because you mean nothing. But because I can never meet the expectations you have of me. You know me, or maybe you never did. Perhaps we were never who we thought we were. Or I've changed, you've changed; things changed. I'll be lying if I say I dont miss you at all. Time and distance have made things complicated. And easy.

For now, I'll keep the memories. And let the rest go.

"One time, when I was very little, I climbed a tree and ate these green, sour apples. My stomach swelled and became hard like a drum, it hurt a lot. Mother said that if I'd just waited for the apples to ripen, I wouldn't have become sick. So now, whenever I really want something, I try to remember what she said about the apples."
