food for thought from the drama my name is kim sam soon,



춤추라, 아무도 바라보고 있지 않은 것처럼.
Dance like no one is watching.
사랑하라, 한번도 상처받지 않은 것처럼.
Love like you've never been hurt.
노래하라, 아무도 듣고 있지 않은것처럼.
Sing like no one is listening.
일하라, 돈이빌요하지 않은 것처럼.
Work like you don't need the money.
살라, 오늘이 마지막 날인 것처럼.
Live life every day as if it were your last.

this sugar rush

two doses, more than enough to satisfy my sweeth tooth
and get me on a massive sugar rush.
tis a wonderful sensation, leaving me wanting more.
yet i wished you were more than just candy.


좋아해요~
joahaeyo~

*clears cobwebs*

the intense hell-ish weeks are here.
and not ending anytime soon.
so i am not expecting myself to blog unless i've got something to whine about.

life can be so unpredictable sometimes.
like how just few months back my godpa is still healthy and all.
and few days ago, we got a call from godma that he's hospitalised with a stroke.
likewise for another old friend who's diagnosed with leukemia recently.

i wonder if god selectively bestows hardships.
or life just wanted to be mean to you somehow.

and upon seeing how these two people try to overcome a down period in their lives, i think mine is probably far more easier to overcome than theirs.
so next time i whine about my predicament, someone please give me a wake up call.

not the best of time (as usual) but i'm addicted to this drama called goong right now.

never expected to be this obsessed over a K-drama but well...
this happened to come at the right time i needed some stress-busters.

because right now i have absolutely no brain juice to write something coherent.
so here's a "fill-me-up" stolen from jo's blog.

phew.
dreadful test's over and done with.
though i already know that i will either fail or just scrap through since all the expected answers have been dealt with.
but whatever. i tried my best for the past 2 days and that's what matters.

hopefully i won't revert back to my 'holiday' mode after this.
since the upcoming weeks still spell more fretful tests and assignments.
but this weekend i can resume my enjoyable regime of swimming.
just like how chin is so enchanted with her surf board, i love my swimsuit (it sounds sick i know) and the chlorine water.

more to come later when i get home.
ciao for now.

the clouds have drifted off...
a sunny sky once again.

thanks everyone for the encouraging words.
even though i'm forever whining about this problem and not attempting hard to resolve it.
i'm feeling so much better now. after letting it all out.

thus begins the time of the semester where everyone starts pulling their hair out.
the going gets tough but i'm so glad to have my wonderful parents and friends with me.
aja aja fighting everyone!

coming back to think about it, i actually enjoyed some of my modules this semester.
regardless of the crazy weekly quizzes and all, japanese lessons are so much fun.
laughing at each other's mistakes in class and stuttering all the time :)
arts of se asia revived that teeny weeny little artist in me even though i'm forever being picked on in tutorial class (nicknames like science girl and big boy).
and best of all, i enjoy one of my core modules very much.
besides having the hilarious 'amazing race' sisters as my main source of entertainment in practicals, i do find myself consciously working hard for this module.

yay. maybe this is a good start.
though a little too late (golly i'm ending year 2 already).
hopefully that would constitute a Neil Armstrong's "giant leap for mankind" for me.

oh pray tell, it would happen.
