Satisfaction to me...

Satisfaction is sitting somewhere cheerful and peaceful away from the crowds,
having this peace within myself despite knowing my life isnt perfect.

Satisfaction is being able to feel happiness and bliss despite the oncoming exams,
being in an environment of Christmas cheer in such a time.

Satisfaction is an emotion that has to be experienced and cannot be fully described.

Satisfaction is this still serenity which is what i am feeling now somehow :)

Absence makes the heart grow fonder

Sometimes there are moments of mild activity that causes me to ponder about what i really want in life. Maybe it is just the flu getting to me or something (hurhur..)

Anyways, back to my title.

This year seems to have been a lot about that. First Conrad having to be away at hostel for the whole year, and now elliot and daddy being in china for overseas cip. it is so empty without a part of the family around... indeed absence makes the heart grow fonder. Sigh.. not much mood to type, so chao!~

Superman fell sick...

2 days back, Superman fell sick
It was as if he fell out of the sky
The strong almighty unknockable Superman.

Then I realised we are all human, even you.
Get well soon daddy :)

Thanksgiving.

No UCDQ! not FANGsgiving. :D hahaha.. still cant believe that was a joke. hoho..

WELL!!

It's funny how sociology tutorials can have the most awesome bunch of people because people all just seem to feel at ease being themselves. No one is trying to be a smarty pants, no one is trying to be someone he/she is not, no one is trying to just stand out from the crowd, and yet a variety of people coexist for those 2 hours every even week of term. It's really nice and actually slightly sweet (for the lack of a better adjective).

Semester 1 has started and now, has quickly bulleted to an end. How fast time flies. They say semester 2 will drag like forever. is that true? well, we wont know till we go through it and it is best to keep an open mind right? :) looking back over these past few months (that have zoomed by faster then you could say "ZOOM") i'm really thankful. Thinking about how aprehensively i begun the semester. telling myself, this is bound to get me down sooner or later. looked to me like i started on a very bad note. There was so much hesitation, apprehension, skepticism. well, that's mostly gone i think. This semester has been lots of fun! well, i love people and its always wonderful to meet an array of characters. sure there were one or two freaky moments! but the happier times brush those away with much ease :)

So yes! am really thankful that God has been able to turn that pessimistic (unlike my usual self) me, and show me what keeping an open mind and heart can do for a person. Really. This is the first time in my life I've got to "mit dem Bus fahren jeden Tag!!!". go translate that if you like. hahha.. hey! come to think of it, i got so caught up in enjoying the subjects i am taking (with the exception of one) i forgot what i felt at the very beginning. isnt it great to forget at times? haha :) im really grateful. ahh..

on a silly sidenote, im actually trying to wish myself into yesterday's starbucks again just to feel the cosy and tingly happiness. but it is not working!! haha.. looks like i've gotta find myself there again sometime soon :) :) :) :)

okie dokie, thats all fϋr now folks! tchϋss dann!!

Christmas!! *meltzz*

Just had to post this before i go back to finalising my philosophy paper.

ahhh... Christmas music gently filling the air, simple reds and greens tinting the place, snowflake prints and red cups filled with joy. aww.. Im so glad it's coming to that time of the year again. Am in starbucks now and taking in the sight, sounds, smells and taste.. :) :) :) :) :) :) :) this reminds me of why we had such sweet times studying in starbucks in nov last year. well, at least i did. not sure bout the rest ;)

I've always loved Christmas for the array of things it is representative of. but since last year, the love for it was severe! im not exaggerating. it was literally like a disease that infected my entire being.
the family gatherings, the services on Christ's birth, the remembrance of the snow we enjoyed that year with aunty chor kee and family, the Christmas tree standing in our front yard till chinese new year came, the friends showing their love through cards sent by snail mail..... EVERYTHING! I guess what i love about Christmas in generally that it is a a sort of symbol of lovein various ways. ahh... so so happy.

alrite, i shall sit here mugging and melting at the same time :) HEE..
