Sometimes it's funny when you start to smile right after weeping

Tears of joy? Not really.

It's tears of gratitude I'd say

I'm thankful to live with what I have now

Even if I'm "far out of the sea" or "close in the summer daylight"

I'll learn what I don't know

I'll explore the impossible

I'll live in the moment

I want to appreciate every little bittersweet thing

Maybe this place is the right choice

As I've never laughed so much before

Nevertheless, I'm still the same

I still miss what's not here

Friends pass away:that's true

Memories don't

Well, I understand the impermanence of life

"We were best friends and we're not anymore"

"We were lovers and we're not anymore"

Yes, I understand clearly.

I wept but started to smile later on

When things don't go your way, just accept it

It's how you accept life

If you accept joy, you have to accept sorrow

If you pass this hurdle, you'll be wiser and stronger

Remember, the more you tremble, the less you crumble

"Away they have gone

to a far land

no longer to come again

never to hold my hand

all that now remains

are lovely unwashed memories

which are like footprints on sand"

HERE and NOW

Everything is different

It's funny when I try to think about it

My senses have changed

My perceptions

My goals

My instincts

My lovely friends

I don't have the same friends anymore

Friendships don't last but it's possible to last long

Depends on how much you value friendship

=)

Payback

Freezing your smile

After you walked a mile

Carried rocks till now

Thought came across in a while

Ringing, vibrating like a crowd

Forming new vision of art

Predicted the dart to be sharp

Amateur finds the heart

Then expectations grew from guts

Tough ground became soft

Bound to be lost

As you are your boss

Track on the source

Tougher, ready for shots

With the ground or not

Life not like God

It's a funny cloud

Every second counts

Bad days come and go

Escape is a no

Understand is the goal

If one could fathom the meaning of everyday life

Bad days become challenging

Complaints don't exist

Patience is persisted

When good days come people forget

What bad days teach them

They tend to procastinate

Wake up calls emerge from bad atmosphere

Chances can either be grabbed or flown away

Your choice to lead the way

Your hands to take and keep it

If one is at peace when bad times occur

Life is never remorseful

Nothing is impossible if you believe

Things you do reflect who you are

Who you are makes what you'll become

No matter how well you've become

WHO YOU REALLY ARE is the peak

Living without treachery and deceit erase worries

It's our onus to find our way of peaceful living in order to complete the incomplete

Peace cannot be obtained.

It's just like happiness.

It's already within your soul that hasn't started to flare

Being with only yourself starts the mission

Then slowly, you and The Divine/Universe

This feeling will go far

It doesn't make you feel good nor bad

It's just emptiness/peace/gratitude

From here, happiness is the treasure

The moment is never later

NOW

Be determined for clarity first

Then, you will know what's most important right now

Not about the past but now

Which now gives you your future

NOW NOW NOW

Just do it now

Be positive & courageous

EXPRESS.LAUGH.REMEMBER

Today was fabulously great because I laughed A LOT!

Danced and made noise during "Big Noise" event

Just came back after watching Alice In The Wonderland 3D

Yes, $22. hmm. Shopped a little before that

Clothes here are my food

When it's my birthday I just want clothes for my b'day present :)

Tomorrow, it's the Amazing Race!

Of course I'm EXCITED

Winner gets extra 2 Gigs a month for 3 months (each member in a group)

Group name's elephant. LOL!

We'll do our best!! =)

Time of My Life

Reach for the sky when you're on the ground

New things teach you great lessons

Mistakes open various opportunities

The only thing that can do it right is your eternal flame

Life never fails, never bad if you look inside

Peace prevailing, Happiness pouring

That's all.

Contented & grateful

The bad past can give you strength in a wise way

The good future relies on your wisdom & courage

Yes, I love life. Not my own life but LIFE!

Sometimes my heart melts

Knowing that I'm being blessed and lucky

After someone put a bomb right in my heart

No one's at fault

Blameless, faultless and fateless

The other way round, I would want to thank the person who bombed my heart

Thank you so much

Without you breaking it, I wouldn't taste life's beauty & gain strength

One of my principles: When something awful happens now, there is always great chances for you to explore for the latter.

Thank you. Thank you. Thank you! To the people who have helped me through roadblocks.
Thanks to Lord Buddha for teaching me the way

With metta,

:)

Happy

I've a feeling that I'll migrate here someday. Oops?

Anyway, Melbourne's nightlife isn't bad at all

Shops aren't closed yet even of it's 9 smthg.

Brooom!

Melbourne Uni Sports Centre! Gym gym gym

That's my college! It's 15 mins walk from my place but with my speed, I think it'll be 25 mins!

Checked out the place and guess what?

I feel like I'm in a Harry Potter movie because of the classical buildings.

Below's me in the college compound

My Little brother; Andrew!

Dear parents! Ah, they left to M'sia this morning already. I know, CNY craze is still happening back there! Ugh, I want more ANG POWS!

Let me be Hermione Granger! LOL?

Oops, can't fly. Need a broom..

The 80's?

Trinity Chapel; Red one

Grass is really soft. I'll try sleeping on it someday ;)

Sharwood Room; Did registration here.

Best thing was, I met my drama teacher. His name's Jack =)

He talked so excitedly saying tht drama's going to be FUN FUN FUN. Haha I <3>

Had LAMB this morning! Only finished half of it. If I eat this every week, I'll surely be fat by Dec

At the streets.

Some of my housemates =)

We were gonna watch Shutter. A horror film

Rachel had to accompany me to toilet after the thrills =/

My roomate hadn't checked in yet tht time and I took courage to sleep alone

That table was LOUD! I can't say what they were doing. SHOOSH. Haha

Yea, I left space for my roomate! I'm so good =)

Well for tonight, me and my housemates will play TABOO!

Ugh, maybe another horror film.

Oh roomate's here already. Just arrived this morning. Hehe

One of my new friends I made, Rachel Loi!

Melbourne's so fantastic =)

I really love it here!

I so wanna stay here forever!

Weather's cooling and sunny

I've met new friends,

HOT guys,

Friendly people.

College will be starting on the 22nd of February.

Can't wait for Orientation =) and English test?

Btw, they don't sell bolsters here in Melbourne

I MISS MY BOLSTER!

Yes, I do MISS my loved ones too!

but life moves on :)

LIFE'S AWESOME

& I'm LIVNG it

Trying to get use with the lifestyle here well

Yes, it's 2.52 a.m here and am not sleeping yet

Still following the M'sian time for bedtime. LOL!

Will be checking out my college tomorrow =)

Hmm, anyway the fashion trend here is SO MY TYPE =)

OH and spent some time with my housemates!

I'll update more soon =) I have to go to bed! Nights!

Freeing the Demon

Can't sleep? Having a bad time?

Want the pain to stop?

Fall down because you're tired of things?

You alone against the world?

Get HELP if you live in the hole

The way to happiness will get you out of darkness

It's the Power of Now!

CRAWL back up when you crash

It won't be easy but be hopeful!

People around you are KINDNESS

Compassion to the earthlings contributes to your happiness =)

Everyone has the right to be happy =)

Feel like a child!

Realise the beauty of this world

JUMP your way to the sky

Even when it RAINS like cats and dogs, smile like no other

Your strength will accumulate as you can jump higher!

CONNECT with nature.

PEACE is between you and nature.

HAPPINESS is when you're at PEACE

Both are already an existence in you

Find it within you, don't seek outside

You yourself determines your own life

People around you act as helping hands

But you are the leader

Leading your life like how you want it to be

If you're thinking that you'll only be happy if you have this and that,

Your life is going to be unstable because

happiness is in other people's hands?

So if they don't provide you what you want,

You'll break and crumble ?

DON'T & NEVER

Become your own BFF

Everything is in your hands

You're living your own life, not somebody else's life

If you get hurt badly, emotionally or physically,

Then WORK on the CURE and later, PREVENT

TIME is FRIEND

Be patient.

You can only reach out to the others when you help yourself.

Positivity does it all.
