tired

February 1st, 2008 by chiahuan-chiahuan

Just had 2 breakfast with Jem and KD around JB..or rather breakfast at 2 different places. Went around town also..to SETA and danga bay and the place where i had been really familiar with…Sense of sadness and nostalgia crept up…Just can’t help worrying that I’m leaving next saturday.Time flies…and I’m weary and worried…Weary of their frequent cold-wars…Just felt that i’m not prepared for leaving..Not being able to leave home with mum and dad in this state.

I’m tired..tired of being in between..tired and…just tired…

I need energy and I need my oldself  back…

Shopping = philosophy = love

January 28th, 2008 by chiahuan-chiahuan

Don scratch head while u saw the title…ya…That’s what i mean…There’s so much philosophy in shopping and it seems shopping for jeans has so many similarities in love. Below is a real scenario…haha…

I was searching for a pair of jeans recently. It all started since almost one month ago. After my final exam, I started searching for a pair of jeans. I found a pair which is so nice in Espirit. nice cutting, nice colour, nice fabric. It seems so suitable for me. but when i see the price tag…………RM 329…-.-lll….How am i suppose to buy this?hmmm…With a feeling of sadness, I walked away with hope that I will surely find my pair of jeans with a more suitable price. Shops and shops i’ve gone…Bought many other things besides my jeans…hee..=p…Finally, one day i went into Padini…and there was a section for ladies’ jeans…eh…they even have name for the jeans and I didn’t know those which are for guys are called "Alex" and those which are for girls are called "Alicia"…!!!eh!!!EH!!!it’s my name..haha…so, I took one to try on…it fitted…nice colour, nice fabric, nice cutting too…and when i took a look at the price tag…RM107…ok wat…..yup…and that’s it…I got my jeans…at the right time, right jeans…=)

So, to think of it…It sounds so much like looking for  ur partner in life….We have to take time, choose, and compare….just to find the right one.haha…likewise, once we get the right pair of jeans, we’ll wear it for a long long time..normally for life time..Cos, the longer u wear it, the more comfortable it is..I’m sure u’ll agree with me right…We’ll wear our jeans until it’s torn little here and there…Likewise, if u’ve got ur suitable partner, the longer u be together, the better u feel…But, if u didnt get the right size, right cutting, or right colour. U just feel like changing it, cos it doesnt make u feel comfortable…sometimes it’s also because the person who wears it have changed…U outgrow ur jeans or the jeans outgrow u…haha…so u either go on diet to fit into the old pair of jeans or u eat more…or u buy a new one…=) So, here’s the tricky part…U don just change a new pair of jeans once u feel that u didnt get the right one, but u give it a chance.. Try and wear it more…If in the end, it’s still not the right pair then we really have to get a new pair…

Hmmm…is there a chance to get the unsuitable one even if u put in lots of effort and time to decide??

I guess yes!!!ooopsss…then how ah?

Oh…just leave it to fate lah…haha….Just like getting the jeans….

Honestly, I dislike changes. Changes bring about anxiety. Changes make ppl feel insecure. but, as ppl says changes are inevitable in life and we learn through the various changes in life. Changes make us grow and broaden our mind. Have to open up our hearts, accept changes and grow to be a stronger and better person.

Thankful to god as I have a lot, a lot of friends here. Things won’t be the same without you guys…It has really been a great journey…

I MISS HOME……

December 2nd, 2007 by chiahuan-chiahuan

I miss home very much…Although i’m not those who will call home everyday to talk to my parents and my family members. Although I’m not those who will go home every weekend…Although I get to see my parents quite frequently…But, I know i miss home badly..Now…Wonder what’s happening at home…Wonder what’s dad and mum doing…Wonder what’s the little kids all doing?Weekend=holiday to them…weekend=stay over at grandparent’s(my parents) place…Wonder how dage and dasao doing…Wonder how’s er ge and er sao and little zu hao….Wonder how’s the newly-wed san ge and san sao doing…

Although i’m not the type who is darn hardworking to study all day long…But, I’m sick of studying…tired of trying hard to finish the "never-ending" notes everyday and feeling guilty for dozing off/day-dreaming off and not be able to achieve my target in that day…

Health issues is in 5 days time…Although it’s not that important…But, still i feel scared for feeling so "insufficient" for the exam…Not listening in lecture and now totally blur of what’s printed in the notes…Wonder again How am i going to sit for the exam…

I need to go home….(counting down 5 days until i go back) =)
I wanna watch star dust…
I wanna watch enchanted…

I shall brave through everything…(how to survive in Melbourne like this?)

"Stop thinking so much!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

101 secrets

November 21st, 2007 by chiahuan-chiahuan

"There is nothing that can’t be made worse by telling."

    Good news travels fast and bad news travels faster. For some reason, people are more willing to pass along the negatvie things they hear than the positive. In so doing, they lose out on the positive return, for everything they say comes back to them eventually.

    The road to happiness is paved with compliments and praise. Such words bring hope and encouragement to both the speaker and the hearer. The positive things you say can also establish your reputation as a person of integrity, winning you the trust, admiration, and respect of others.

Positive words create a positive life.

From book <<101 simple secrets to keep your hope alive #35>>

It’s so true…The impact of making a mistake or making a wrong decision can be so destructing to self… Especially, after what you have done wrong, forgiveness was given by the others but you still can’t forgive yourself. That’s the worst part… that’s when you know you have landed yourself in a darn s.h.i.t.t.y situation…A word of "sorry" cannot amend the mistake made…But, still sorry…

Yup…amendments do not stop by just saying sorry…Have to solve my own problem…

small small smile…=)

Have u ever have this feeling?

November 10th, 2007 by chiahuan-chiahuan

It does not make one feels good when u’ve to guess what’s in
other ppl’s mind..U keep guessing and expecting or hoping what u’re hoping for
will become reality.. U keep guessing and try to prepare urself for the worst
so that u wont be that sad or dejected when the outcome does not follow ur way…

 

When u actually get to know the truth, U’ll feel
contented and relieved.. Even if the outcome is not wat u hoped for.. Even if the outcome
is just “so-so” loh…But the knowing of the truth actually put

ur

anticipations or anxiousness to an end…And
that’s the feeling that I’m talking about…Because after knowing the truth, U
get to think of plans or rather relieving ways to make ur mind clear of the
“terrible”(heavy word) feeling of keep on guessing what’s the truth…U get to prepare urself emotionally and think of appropriate "counter mechanisms" for it…

 

I wonder does this apply to most of the ppl. At least for
me, I always yearn to know the truth whether is it good or bad..I just want to
know..Heehee…It’s called curiousity in the nice way and “kepo” in a not that
nice way…=P…

 

Haha.. just wanna say thanks to u if u had tell me wat I
should know to end my worries and guessings…

 

Sometimes, if things doesn’t really turn out the way it
should be..I’m sure there’ll be some good points if we look on the other side…

 

Hmmm…=)
