TALK TO ME!!!Friday, 29 May 2009 Finally have the time to update this blog.. Apparently, my life the past 2 wks has been a complete roller coaster.. A lot of things has indeed happened.. But thank God that All things turned out good for me as time flies by =) Gonna be back to post some pictures next week.. Post pictures about my work place.. AND HOPEFULLY, of me working.. LOL!! =X In the meantime, i'm gonna MIA to finish my 2nd assessment for Lead and Manage module.. SO.. SEE YA SOON PEOPLE!! Labels: Australia, Random, Tony Roma's Sunday, 17 May 2009 Hey guys, I'm back to blog again.. Got a lot of things are going on.. I personally have no mood to blog at all despite things that are happening.. But i hope that it'll be settled and will be over soon.. Anyway, these pics are taken the day after i worked in Tony Roma's after Tues night and Wed Full day.. LOL.. as u can see, my skin got too dry, and as i rub against sharp edges, it tore.. some of them are blisters. And the one on my thumb wrapped BIG was a cut.. I've also got my knuckles swollen red =.=" Anyway, working in Tony Roma's is fun =) Labels: Australia, Random, Tony Roma's Monday, 11 May 2009 As i sat down in my room.. With closed doors behind me.. Having a very dim table light in front of me.. Playing songs from the album Cross by CHC.. And just having a cup of warm herbal tea beside me.. With my fingers reaching out for the keyboard to type this blog post.. I began to think about a lot of things.. As usual strangely, by the time the clock strikes 1.30am, I'll start to feel different.. I no longer will feel happy nor excited.. I just began to enter into a different mode.. I will start to think a lot about what i've done.. What i have to do.. How to change.. As i sat down here today, with the perfect atmosphere of reflecting and having thoughts running continuously in my head, I began to think about my success as i am today.. What made me come this far.. Why is it that i'm able to do so well now and make impacts into people's life.. Depite i'm young, not smart, have no talents, did not do well academically.. I really wonder what made me got until this far.. Although i have a lot of people to thank.. People who i used to see or am still seeing everyday, who have moulded me into who i am today.. These few nights before i sleep.. And as i alight from the Train at platform 5 at Perth Train station, walking out of Wellington Street, towards Murray Street and Hay Street finally.. Streaming down along Hay Street to enter 919 Hay Street into Tony Roma's.. I began to remember about the most important perosn who made me who i am today.. Sad to say, He's the one whom i've hurt the most everyday.. The saddest part is despite Him guiding me along for so long.. Even tho i can't see him, but i can hear and feel Him beside me.. I've neglected Him totally.. Abba Father.. Thank You so much for never giving up on me.. I love you.. Yesterday night, I had a good chat with someone.. That person made me realise how sad it is to really neglect someone.. Or to leave that someone alone.. Or even lying to someone.. Telling him/her that you really love them.. But ur actions does not prove it.. Or you ended up actually deceiving them.. Some things happened unintentionally.. But isn't love something that is unconditional? without a motive? Anyway, i believe that person shld be reading my blog now bah.. Don't need to feel guilty for telling me those things u told me ystd.. In fact, i'm really glad u told me well.. Bcoz if u were to tell me later.. the consequences will be much worst.. You are forgiven =) I personally feel that it's time for everyone of us to reflect on ourself.. As today is Mother's Day.. Ask ourselves, what have we done for our mothers? As teenagers, being in rebellious stage. Think about how many times have we made our mothers cried? Think about how much your mum loves you.. Think about your mum, who wakes up early everyday so that she can make breakfast for you.. Think about your mum, who does housework for you everyday and ask you to study instead.. Think about your mum, who got pregnant of you for 9 mths.. Going throught ours of labour pain just to bring you to this world.. Does all these get you thinking?? Thinking about yourself as a kid?? Of course I personally, have done a reflection as well.. I feel that i've really neglect my mum ever since i've moved to Australia.. Bcoz to me, if a women is married, she leaves everyone behind and only to serve her husband.. So i began to feel myself as a burden to her only in Australia.. I began to think about my mum when i was in singapore.. The bad things i did that made her sad.. That made her cry.. As most people didn't know.. I come from a single-parent family and my mum single-handedly raised me and my bro up.. My mum took 23 hours in labour to give birth to me.. From young, my mum has been working day and night to feed us.. I have no choice but to experience pain and was force to grow up.. I used to blame my mother for that.. I hate it.. I always ask myself.. Why is my life so different from others?? Why can't i have a normal family experience? Why can i be like other kids?? Who are normal? Why can't i have a father, a mother, a brother and myself?? Living together under 1 roof happily I remember once, my mum almost died before of me.. It was in sept 2006 or 2007 i suppose.. But i made my mum angry the night before.. I yelled at her.. The next day, she almost died at the hospital with a stroke.. From then on.. i really regret.. And today as i'm here typing this post out.. I really Thank God that she's still alive today.. As well as everyone else who's around me.. I thank you guys for being by my side always.. Always being with me thru my ups and downs.. Some even suffering with me.. spending a lot of time with me.. Thank You guys once again for it.. Anyway guys, Remember to show appreciation to everyone.. Not only your mum.. But trust me.. When u've lost that someone unexpectedly just like that one day.. You'll realise that it's too late.. Just like me and my granny.. I really miss her a lot.. I remember myself crying my heart out during the funeral.. I was with yong gao and yong jian then.. I don't want anyone else around me to go thru what i went thru.. Or neither do i wanna experience such things again.. So guys.. Spread your love and appreciation to everyone today.. Love you all guys =) Labels: Australia, Singapore, Thoughts and Feelings Monday, 4 May 2009 I suddenly have this sudden urge to blog.. This random thought just came back to me as here i am, sitting down on my chair, getting all ready to type my script for tues's role-play.. But here i am actually blogging.. Just wanna take this time to share some of my thoughts about things.. Especially my thoughts about "Self-Help" or "Motivational" Books. Reason for doing so? Well, in the broken down, highly corrupted world that we are in today, that is totally full of competition, discouragement, negativity and many more, Human beings are desperate to get better as the days go by, so therefore, we are always asking ourselves questions and also seeking answers about getting better. In order to do so, we seek for counselling, ask for people's advice and also read books. Anyway, get to the main story now.. When i was back in singapore during mid april, On easter Sunday, i happen to be a borders with yonggao, yongjian, jiaxin and her friend.. Yong Gao was looking for self help books during that period of time.. So jiaxin came across this book written by Adam Khoo.. For most of you guys, we might know him, as Singaporeans, But for those who doesn't know, he's some famous inspirational guy who writes books to help people.. Anyway, jiaxin was telling me how good he is and how awesome his courses are.. I happen to remember that last year, weishan was telling me how good he was also.. ANYWAY!!! TO THE MAIN POINT.. I personally feel that reading such books.. YES it can help someone.. But so what?? At the end of the day, it's not that person who wrote that book who helped you totally.. It was because we made that decision to want to change and become a better person that made us better.. No matter how many of such books we read, at the end of the day, it's not about HOW MANY WE READ or HOW MUCH WE KNOW.. It's about making that decision after reading the book.. To change and get better.. The book can only motivate us and inspire us.. But can u imagine that after reading it, you've decided to "orh.. like that lor" Sit down doing nothing about it.. I bet your life is not gonna change for sure.. Think about it.. Why are such books call "self-help books" and not "let-me-help-you books"?? In basic english terms, it just basically means helping of oneself.. Helping youself.. Not being helped by others.. Get what i mean.. I remember on the last night when i was in singapore.. I spent my night walking the entire woodlands with Yong Gao aniki.. We first bought a drink and some snacks.. We sat along the really really short railing that was at the glass door nxt to KFC along CWP.. I was telling him about my this thought as well.. And he was telling me that that was what the book he was reading said!!! About making the decision to change!!! I'm someone who doesn't really read much books.. For me to pick up a book and finally reading it, it must be something rare for someone to see me doing that bah.. But surprisingly, i'm able to thought about it.. Thank God for the revelation i got.. It was something really awesome.. And i'm really glad that what i said to him the entire night inspired him as well =) I love you aniki.. So glad to have met you at Starbucks in Sept 2007.. Anyway people.. Hope that we are able to make that decision today.. Pick up a book to read.. Make that decision to change for the better A TOAST FOR THE BRIGHT FUTURE AHEAD!!
