It's the
end of a year again. Though it doesn't feel like it haha. But well, as usual, i shld write sth like a
concluding entry of the year rite?
2006 has been a
great year for me. I'd tot it'd be long and arduous, wif a super busy 2nd semester (Jan - Apr), PA and FYP etc... I've been through a lot, but i must sae that things have been pretty smooth-sailing,
surprisingly. I survived my busiest semester of my uni life, i loved and
enjoyed my PA to bits (i miss u
angels! i miss the airport too!)... 2006 is not a scary year after all, it is a year when i
learnt a lot of new things, and had a lot of fun.
Most importantly, i got to see more of the
world. I'm so happy that i got to do wat i love most - travelling.
Taipei and Bangkok. 2 different cities wif diverse cultures, yet i
love them both. I realli hope to visit them again next year.
2007. A year of
uncertainty. A year of
change. Though i may be smiling as i'm typing this entry now, i hafta confess that at the back of my mind, i'm
scared of the year ahead. I'm a person who
hates changes in my life. After being a student for
16 yrs, will i be able to adapt to
working life? Will i be able to get a desired
job? Will my frens and i slowly
drift apart as we can't meet often? Yes, i'm scared, but i shall not think too much at this pt in time.
I'll
embrace the year 2007 wif open arms. I'll
accept whatever may come. I'll
cherish whatever i have. No use worrying now, isn't it? =)
I shall learn from the fighting spirit of Aya and Kaoru!
Aza aza!
Haha i juz had to post her pics... =P May i find the strength and courage to face the year ahead, juz like them!

In ur eyes, all i am is a future
money tree. U neva fail to
remind me of that every dae. But wat if no matter how
hard u shake it, no money drops down?
Do u realise that i'm always
silent when u mention that? Do u realise how
scared i am?
I'm juz a
small ice cube in the middle of the desert, weathering the heavy storm...
Alone.

Though it's kinda late, but...
Merry Christmas everyone!
Finishing
One Litre Of Tears soon... Haven't been watching for the past few daes as i was at Sentosa. The last time i watched it (think it was
ep 8 or 9), i totally
bawled my eyes out... No drama has eva made me cry so much before (considering that i usually dun cry while watching dramas)...
Kylie is right. Think i'd have cried one
bucket of tears by the time i finish it.
Before u ask me y i'm still watching it since it makes me so sad, i wanna sae it's a realli
great series. Better than
Beautiful Life. Better than
God Please Give Me More Time. It is realli
meaningful, and it makes u appreciate the little things in life...
And yes, i love
Erika Sawajiri (the pretty girl u see in the pic of my last post)! Her acting is
excellent beyond description. Someone pls tell me where to catch the
Midnight Sun drama!

I've been watching
One Litre Of Tears recently...
Tearing like crazee for each episode. And i'm onli halfway through the series...
Was inspired to watch this after watching
Midnight Sun. I like these kinda shows... They do not conc on those complicated love stories and twisted fates juz to gain ur tears... They focus on family, friends, life, dreams... They show how the protagonists, though stricken wif illness (not the typical leukemia or brain tumour for that matter), stay
strong in times of adversity,
determined to live their life to the fullest. Their
passion for life realli touches my heart...
Looking at them, i feel so
small. I shouldn't be here worrying about wat the future will bring... I shld be living each dae happily, coz at the veri least, i'm
alive. That's all that matters, isn't it?
These shows remind me of a similar series of stories by Lurlene McDaniel that i loved to read last time... The hope and courage of the protagonists neva fail to motivate me... Which is y although they r mostly sad, i still love these stories. They warm my heart. They remind me that i'm actualli a lucky girl.

Midnight Sun. A realli nice and
touching Japanese movie that i watched todae. It is, without a doubt, the
best movie i've watched this year.
The plot is
simple: A girl who can onli live in
moonlight due to a rare skin disease. She sleeps in the dae, and performs at the streets at nite. A boy who loves to surf as the
sun rises. Their paths cross. It's
not a typical melodramatic movie, it's a movie about music, love and family. It does not have any heart-wrenching scenes, yet it
moved me to tears...
It's the
beautiful singing of the female lead,
Amane Kaoru (played by real-life singer
Yui), that made this movie so
real, so special. Her voice has the power to reach ur soul and touch u deeply... (No wonder critics describe Yui as a singer wif a "
heavenly voice".)
This movie made me think about
life... About how fortunate we r to be alive and
healthy. About how our
loved ones have been standing by us all this while. About how we'll eventually find our own
direction in life. Dare to
dream. Cliche, but true.
Midnight Sun is a realli
meaningful movie that's worth watching... For those who dun mind sad movies (it's not that much of a tearjerker, it's juz
mildly melancholic), do catch it.
P.S: The amazing thing is, the songs Yui sang in the movie r all written by herself. A talented artiste indeed. And if u r dying to ask this, yes, the guy is veri shuai and cute. Haha.

Sometimes i wonder... Y do opportunities always belong to others, but not
me? Wat is it that i lack? Luck? Effort? Or is everything juz
fated?
But i tell myself... I can't
yuan4 tian1 you2 ren2. Perhaps it's me who haven't worked hard enuff. Perhaps it's me who let opportunities pass me by.
Sometimes, to others, i may seem like i
have a lot of things... I'm not supposed to be here, writing such
depressing stuff. I bet some of u even think i'm juz exaggerating... I'm not. I'm juz writing about my feelings at this pt in time...
Sometimes i feel troubled and weighed down, but there may be no one for me to confide in. Sometimes i feel happy for ppl and sad for myself, and i feel
guilty for thinking that wae. I try to play down my emotions... I try not to think too much...
My future is
bleak... Everyone knoes how scared i am about next year. Sometimes i can flip through a week of newspapers, but there's not a single co that is recruiting grads of my specialisation. My heart
dies every time i read emails by recruiting companies which always state the requirements of "a good honours degree". So i try to
laugh it off. Tell myself it doesn't matter. But i knoe it
does... And it's my own fault.
Next year is the year where everything is going to
change. Suddenly, i'm going to be on
my own. Wat am i going to do... And who will be by my side... Too much
uncertainty...
Can't believe i'm tearing... Sometimes a sudden bout of depression strikes u and juz leaves u helpless... Juz let me be insane for a nite...

Hao3 ren2 nan2 zuo4. Zhen1 de4.
Sometimes u dun see wat others have done for u, all u see is wat they have
not done. Or wat they have not done according to
ur wishes.
Words do have the power to
hurt.

Sometimes i wonder, wat am i going to do next time? Join some big MNC and do
marketing? Go into the
service line? Ppl always ask me this, but i dunno the answer myself. I dun even knoe wat opportunities r open for me.
Wat if i
can't get a job? (Which is veri
likely for marketing students...) Haha better dun think le.
Why does CAAS onli recruit ppl wif 2nd upper and above? I wld love to go back there... But no such luck. Hai.
I wanna
sell my clothes online! But i dunno how. =(
