hello (:

it's the end of recess week!

While that's supposed to mean bad news, I feel surprisingly refreshed and ready
to take on the challenges of school again. A big contrast from my previous post, I guess?
Well, don't get me wrong, I'm really as stressed as ever. But, I'm counting my blessings,
people who have cheered me up and brightened my life over the past recess week
and helped to alleviate my stress. (:

Although there're so many projects but I guess I'm glad and fortunate to be working with
nice people and they're a joy to work with. (: People really matter in project work! So, thank you to all who are doing project with me . (:
Of course, there're assignments that I have to do individually, which I feel really stressed up about- Yes I fear that my CAP will drop..but oh well, I guess after going through so many academic years, the best advice I can give myself is to just give it my best and leave the rest to fate. (=

There're also people who are always there for me.(: Like my boyfriend, who tries to encourage me and secretly stress me by being so disciplined and hardworking :D haha. just kidding, I'm really proud of him actually. I'm a bad example. haha. I do look upon him as a good example for me <3

And there's my godbrother, who gave me my part two belated birthday present today afternoon by treating me to a splendid meal and games at Mind Cafe@ Funan (: Spotting pictures and playing Risk -where i managed to conquer Asia( because it's green on the map so I wanted to conquer it :p ) But, seriously, it was a good break because we talked alot, ate alot, played alot and just relaxed- amidst such stressful times, I really appreciate and treasure such chill-out times (:

And there's my ganma, Jeanine, who's really such a dear elder sister to me(: her facebook msg to me came at the right time :D she's someone so dear and close to me and so her encouragement and everything really mean alot to me:) I'm so looking forward to our outing at the end of the year! <3 this gives me motivation!

And there's my new bro :D Keith (: who so nicely gave me a call from Australia before he proceeds to the desert haha:D It was such a pleasant surprise for me , because I don't really get overseas phonecalls :D the effort and money to use to find out how i am because i told him i was stressed really cheered me up. it's a sign of real care and concern:D Oh and i received a card from Australia too from another friend:D happy happy ahha.

And incidents such as interacting with visually handicapped people-who strike me as positive people in their own way. (: There's always so much to learn from people- whom society deems as less useful and able but actually, there's so much strength and hope dwelling in them that makes me think that we really need to learn from them(: Visually handicapped people who stress over simple daily things can still find joy in living, what's more me? When I'm only stressed by my busy schedule and academic requirements :/

Okay, so even though I'm really busy and only going to get busier, if I know how to cherish and treasure what I have, I can still be a happy busy woman:D I still can find joy in my life and use this positive energy to touch others and bring joy to them :D

I must jiayou(:
