It's raining cats and dogs outside ...

I love the rain. I love the sound of it. I love the coolness that comes with it. I love hiding under the blanket and sleeping on a rainy day.

I love sitting on the beach on a cloudy day. I love to stare out at the sea and hear the waves. I love to feel the wind in my face, and the sand under my feet.

I love the clouds. I love the way they shift and change shape. I love the quietness of it all; movement without sound. So unassuming, so unpredictable.

Stop wanting things that you cannot have, slow down and breathe, and you will be happier.

Why am I at work?? Can't wait to go out and see the sea and sky......

Porcupine Syndrome

Just thought of this episode on a very old show, where 1 of the main characters got jealous over a girl, and started treating his friends very badly. His friend then confronted him for his "porcupine illness"...

Got me thinking that I may have this "porcupine syndrome" too. Whenever people get close to me, and when I feel that my comfort zone has been intruded, I tend to suddenly spike up and hurt them, pushing them so far that I find it hard to say sorry...



I finally got my watch!! expensive.. but really feels worth it... wanted to wait till I get my Ang Baos for my birthday before getting it.. but I'm too dependent on my watch to wait 2 mths... =P

What do you ask for?

3 Elisha said, "Go around and ask all your neighbors for empty jars. Don't ask for just a few. 4 Then go inside and shut the door behind you and your sons. Pour oil into all the jars, and as each is filled, put it to one side." 5 She left him and afterward shut the door behind her and her sons. They brought the jars to her and she kept pouring. 6 When all the jars were full, she said to her son, "Bring me another one." But he replied, "There is not a jar left." Then the oil stopped flowing.

My God is a generous and powerful God, but I often am too pai seh to ask Him for smth big...

So I've decided. Just ask. Then leave the results to Him. If yes, thank God. If no, thank God. For now, it's time to move on, and find smth meaningful to do with all that free time.

Travel plans

I... want... to... go... overseas...... again.......

but my pocket won't let me...

sigh.

To err is human...

happy, scared, contented, afraid, empty.

Stop indulging in negativity. It is a bottomless pit from which no one can save you, because even you yourself do not feel you deserve to be rescued.

Be kind to yourself even if the world is not.

Irrationality. To think that the whole world hates you / looks down on you. Do they really?

And if they do, which I believe they do, then does it really matter? Very few people (can count with 1 hand) can actually have the love of everyone around them. I had hoped I'd be one of the elite few.. but nah...

So don't hope that your boss and colleagues will be kind to you after you make countless mistakes. People will lose faith in you after each mistake, small or big, and it'll take time to regain that trust.

Jia you. Hang in there. You will make it one day.

Fix your eyes on the ultimate prize, and you will do more than to survive.
