Holy Family

Today my church celebrates Holy Family. And what I found the priest said during the sermon was really meaningful even though halfway through I accidentally fell asleep. Surprisingly though, I slept for more than 8 hours already and still feeling sleepy.

Back to the topic, Holy Family. And the priest reminded everyone that your family is the closest neighbour that you can have and that God has given. "Love your neighbours as I have loved you.." Sometimes amidst the darkest moments of our lives, families are the ones who'll stick with you and pull you through.

So, never miss a chance whenever you can be with your family. Family is the greatest treasure on earth. Treasure them well...=)

Experiences

So caught with a lot of things that I didn't realise the sky got a little darker until I looked out of the window. Pretty dark and so I thought it was 4pm already when it was only 2.30 pm.

This phenomenon I heard of when I was studying Geography in secondary school. During winter, nights are longer than days, for the areas in the northern hemisphere of the earth. But I used to imagine how it would be like when I was still in high school. Only that now I get to experience it myself. And it was pretty far from my imagination. Experience.

Experience. An important element in life. So far, I've experienced two different climates, I've seen and touched snow. There are more to come. I'm going to visit the renowned Niagara Falls, make a snowman (wait till the snow is thick enough), celebrating Christmas in an ang-moh country. These are all the good ones.

Bad experiences. They are nevertheless, important in our lives, for they are the ones that will shape our future and probably motivate us. Tons of bad experiences in my life as well.
I've suffered betrayal, heartbreaks and sarcasm from people surrounding me. But they are the ones that make me realise that life is not as easy as it seems to be. And most importantly, never judge someone until you really know them.

Experiences. They give me the power to move on with life and no matter how much I would like to turn back time, experiences tell me to keep moving forward. More are to come. Well somehow, if I don't stop now, I'll have a bad experience during Physics test tomorrow...

Tata...

For no reason, I just can't log into Facebook..

HMM...

maybe it's time to get back to Physics (? ?)

Wintertime

It's winter already. Snow everywhere and it's pretty hard to walk around. Nearly slipped a few times on my way to church today. =D

At the centre of McLuhan court

My first shoe print on the snow =)

Snow is nice (I hope I will still say this after this winter). But when it gets too cold, all you want to do is snuggle up in bed and drink Tim Horton's hot chocolate!!

It was after all the quizzes..somemore it's FRIDAY

As a result of stress accumulated over the weekdays and frustration to the 'all-the-time-proving' Calculus teacher (really blur!!!), a few of us skipped his class. I can be counted as one of them

I skipped halfway, not up to halfway even, a quarter (waseh..so proud to say eh??). Anyway, I had a 'lesson' in Square One today instead.



Christmas season is filling the air...yippie...can't wait for christmas!! And which was the reason I came here. To stock up and get prepared for the coming winter...BRrr...

Had some more things to buy. Winter hats...


Before the shopping began, we (Grace and I) had something to eat first...wohoho...KFC..yummy chicken..And found these cute reindeer and a toy soldier at the centre of the food court...




I hope it's Christmas time soon!! Weeee....

"... that no one can make you feel inferior without your consent. You have to agree that you are less and that someone else is more to feel inferior. If you don't agree, you can not possibly feel inferior. You might know something less, or you might be able to do something less, but you ARE unique and hence simply incomparable. Do not buy into being reduced to an object of comparison."


Got this from the facebook application and found it really true so i want to share it with everyone who happen to stumble by.


Seems to me that everyone gets affected by others somehow and I am no exception. But just a reminder to everyone as well as to myself that no one can affect you if you don't allow them to.


Everyone is indeed unique and there's a reason why, biologically and theologically. Even if you don't feel that you are super talented or you keep thinking like "why is that guy so much better?" or "owh..how i wish i could be like that..."


Well, whenever you feel that way, it's better that you look at what you have rather than what you don't have. And there's no point of comparing in life. Life's fair even if you don't see it that way but it is.


So, shrug that thought off your mind and hey look you have a hidden spot of talent that you've never realised before when all the time you are spending your time envying what others have that you don't.

I wish

I wish time would slow down a little. Lately when things overwhelm you, time just keeps going faster and faster and it is really hard to catch time.

I wish that I can once again become as young as 6 years old, before everything in my life started, when life is just about playing Barbie dolls and playing 'doctors' or maybe a little hopscotch.

I wish that I am back at home, a place where I can call heaven on earth. A sanctuary, comforting and warm even though it lacked lustre physically, but it's the greatest place where I would want to be.

I can't bear the truth that I am already nineteen. Recently my cousin has just got married. A cousin of my age. And I thought a lot...the responsibility she has to take...oh gosh.. that's definitely too much. Someone of my age, yet very different lives. Studies are enough pain to me already but being a wife at 19? Really big responsibility!

And so I see how different our lives can be and I think...will I be able to cope with everything? With the blur mind of mine..?

When will I be....but right now I just want to be a toddler again
