"There is no passion to be found in playing in small- in settling for a life that is less than you are capable of living"

This eight/nine months wasn't good at all. I wish I could say otherwise. I wish I could say it was a good learning experience. Perhaps the only one thing I have learnt is that you don't always get what you want/life is cruel. Or perhaps I should say that I have learnt that perseverance does pay off some day. 

For someone who always got what she wants, this was certainly the darkest period of my life albeit I wasn't that old to start with. 

Ah, social media. Probably shouldn't elaborate any further.



誰比誰好 能差到多少 
遲早都要 向上帝報到
既然壞的 通通改不掉 
用力思考 
保證 自找 煩惱

Hmm.

Let me photograph you in this light
In case it is the last time
That we might be exactly like we were
Before we realized
We were sad of getting old


Another quarter of the year has passed.

How does it feel surviving seven months at a place where I am not learning?
Am I supposed to be proud of myself?
What have I done in these three months?
How have I improved myself?


Inspiration to do things comes from experiencing life. You just need to get out more and try new things, and you just might find something that will inspire you to do something.

To better days ahead.

“There are two types of waiting. There’s the the waiting you do for something you know is coming, sooner or later—like waiting for the 6:28 train, or the school bus, or a party where a certain handsome boy might be. And then there’s the waiting for something you don’t know is coming. You don’t even know what it is exactly, but you’re hoping for it. You’re imagining it and living your life for it. That’s the kind of waiting that makes a fist in your heart.”

The latter kind of waiting. Will it happen in 2016?

Achievements in 2015: Following fitness routines, graduating, learning how to plan my finances, understanding human nature/relationships, finding what I do NOT want in terms of a career...

Hmm, so here are some of my resolutions I guess:


  1. Getting into shape: eat more healthily, sign up for a pilates class/yoga class/ gym membership/ (once I get a new job with better working hours)
  2. Make (more) food haha (overnight oats?)
  3. Only keep friends who deserve to be kept: no point feeling upset and going the extra mile for people who can't be bothered and start making cards and time for people who matter.
  4. Stay updated with the world's happenings instead of spending so much time on social media.
  5. Compare less (in line with spending less time on social media)
  6. Be more proactive in job search: send at least three applications per week
  7. Continue reading.
  8. Save up more at least 50% every month: "Spend what's left after saving"
  9. Travel to at least one country (Japan/Australia) in 2016 (not contradictory to above point because travel experiences cannot be replaced with anything)
  10. Think of a business idea? Start writing?

At the end of the day, you are all you got.


So yet another month has passed. I am still here. How many more days can I tell myself  "Everything will be fine", "Good things take time"...?

Welcome to November and my list of favourite songs for the month.


Am I wrong
For saying that I choose another way?
I ain't trying to do what everybody else doing
Just 'cause everybody doing what they all do
If one thing I know,
I'll fall but I'll grow
I'm walking down this road of mine, this road that I call home




 那些慢吞吞悲情的音樂 
 早說過愛過之後就是離別
 早該相信那些預言 我們也沒有多特別


原来你是 我最想留住的幸运
原来我们 和爱情曾经靠得那么近
那为我对抗世界的决定 那陪我淋的雨
一幕幕都是你 一尘不染的真心

与你相遇 好幸运
可我也失去 为你泪流满面的权利
但愿在我看不到的天际 你张开了双翼
遇见你的注定 她会有多幸运

青春是段跌跌撞撞的旅行
拥有着后知后觉的美丽
来不及感谢 是你给我勇气 让我能做回我自己

Current earworms:

(And note I didn't watch any of the following MVs so if they are really weird... Too bad)

Go and have your doubts,
we've been through this before, yes
For this will soon be over, it'll be paradise next,
its our paradise next

And darling we will sing until we die,
we'll never waste these tears on fears and cries
and now the world is ours to take
and every single move is ours to make



But she didn’t know, she wasn’t told
This life is just too old
People walking come and go
They don’t know you they’re so cold


So far from typical but take my advice
Before you play with fire do think twice
And if you get burned well baby don't you be surprised


(I love me)
Gonna love myself, no, I don't need anybody else
(Hey)
Gonna love myself, no, I don't need anybody else
(I love me)
Can't help myself, no, I don't need anybody else
Anytime, day or night
(I love me)


You got yourself in a dangerous zone
Cause we both have the fear, fear of being alone

And I still don't understand it
You don't mess with love, you mess with the truth
And my heart don't understand it, understand it, understand it
