I think I am wasting my time everday. Why? I know I wouldnt have time when school starts, but then its hard and ridiculous to start studying now. Maybe too geeky and kiasu too. Anway, its also a waste of time to blog, since no one looks at it and no one comments. Okay, bye.

Am i driven enough?

I was so reluctant yesterday during the mahjong game with the cathigh guys. I didn't want to play because firstly I think gambling is bad, and I know because I am not driven, I know I am just throwing money away.

But at least it did enlighten me to know how much one has to be inspired to get the things he want.

It reminded me of my past.

When I was in lower secondary, I remember how driven I was. Everytime I was spiked by somebody or event, somehow or rather I achieve amazing results. It's been true all the time. I remembered how I topped the whole stream in Sec 1 and 2 that people got really bored by the lack of competition. I was proud and at that time I had very little friends. When I went to the better classes in Upper Secondary, I stopped working so hard. I told myself I needed friends. I slacked and did very badly for my O levels. Juggling between both extreme between lots of time for work or friends was difficult for me. How? Until now, I am still figuring out.

But then, today, I felt the need to achieve. I think I slacked too much. Having got into medical school. How the hell I tell myself that I can do well if I remain in this mentality.

Two things I need to start comtemplating from now on.

1. Driven to the max for success.
2. Developing a loving heart for friends.

It is not an impossiblilty to manage your life in perfect cycles. I need to persevere! I need to strength myself further.
I know that fitting into the australian culture may be hard currently, but I will not let it affect me.
I will be less forgetful from now on and more focus in my work.

Coincidences in life are just not coincidences

It doesn't take a miracle to brighten your day, it just takes a mere coincidence sometimes.
Amazingly, they ain't coincidences, I think that they are wisdoms from Him.

With Yuen Yue's guidance I managed to play my first song on the piano

What a wondrous time is spring
When all the trees are budding
The birds begin to sing
The flowers start their blooming
That's how it is with God's love
You want to sing, it's fresh like spring
You want to pass it on

Of cos, it doesn't stop there.

I managed to get my first audience as well, a girl by the name of Rebecca( An Australian I think) was suddenly very much excited when she heard me playing it in the dinning hall. She mentioned how her grandmother used to play that song for her when she was a little girl. She hadn't heard it for a very long time every since her grandma passed away.

Then again, while looking at other's blog, my precious friend - Rebecca (Tan Suet Ting, Not the previous one), mentioned in her blog how it used to be such a popular song for her in S.t. Margaret's Primary. Even though she didn't know what song I know how to play(only told her that I learnt to play a hymn thats all), she told me to teach her how to play. And of cos, yours truly is practicing hard everyday to perfect the more advanced version of it, haha.

I reflected on what mum and dad told me, this was the conclusion I end up

歌手:周杰伦 专辑:依然范特西

小朋友你是否有很多顽抗
为什么别人在那看漫画
我却在学画画
对这钢琴说话别人在玩游戏
我却在躲在家背abc
我说我要一架大大的飞机
我却得到一只旧旧螺旋机
为什么要听妈妈的话
长大后你就会开始懂得这段话
长大后我开始明白
为什么我跑得比别人快
飞得比别人高
将来大家看的都是我画的漫画
大家唱的都是我写的歌
妈妈的心她不让你看见
温暖的事都在她心里面
有空就得多摸摸她的手
把手牵着一起梦游
听妈妈的话别让她受伤
想快快长大才能保护她
美丽的白发幸福中发芽
天使的魔法温暖中慈祥
在你的未来音乐是你的王牌
那王牌谈的恋爱
而我不想把你教坏
还是听妈妈的话吧
年再恋爱吧
我知道你未来的路
干嘛比我更清楚
你因为太多学习的同学在这块写东写西
但我建议最好听妈妈我会用功读书
用功读书怎么会从我嘴巴说出
不想你输所以要叫你用功读书
妈妈挑给你的毛病你要好好的收着
因为不知道是我要告诉她我还留着
对了我会遇到我(周润发?)
所以你对跟同学炫耀赌神未来是你爸爸
我找不到你写的情书
你喜欢的要承认因为我会了解你会在操场上牵
她你会开始喜欢唱流行歌
因为张学友开始准备唱吻别
听妈妈的话
别让她受伤
想快快长大才能保护她
美丽的白发幸福总发芽
天使的魔法温暖中慈祥
听妈妈的话别让她受伤
想快快长大才能保护她
长大后我开始明白为什么我
跑得比别人快飞得比别人高
将来大家看的都是我画的漫画
大家唱的都是我写的歌
妈妈的心她不让你看见
温暖的事都在她心里面
有空就得多摸摸她的手
把手牵着一起梦游
听妈妈的话别让她受伤
想快快长大才能保护她
美丽的白发幸福中发芽
天使的魔法温暖中慈祥

Formal Dinner at Christ College (Combined with Jane Franklin / John Fisher College)




Lost @ 9:00 pm


A sound heart is life to the body, But envy is rottenness to the bones

I reflect upon several incident that happened these few days. Just some food for thoughts.

Have you often felt depressed because you were not good enough for something and others were? You know that you are envious and couldnt do much? You may sink into depression because you thought you were powerless? Issit it dangerous if you could actually do something, you might fight to get to the top? And at a greater extend you may deprive others and you do not care??

I couldnt really say what incident it was, bcos it will mean mentioning others name which I wouldnt want to.

But the whole point was that I reflected upon it. I realise that I forgot to mention the greatness of how when others receive the goodness, it was all the power of LORD who made it possible??
Isn't it better if I could congrat the person on his good news and share his happiness? I know I may not hae it, but if I think so much about getting it, being so overly obsessed, wouldnt I hurt myself in the process of craving? It's okay if I try to attain it with justified ways, but it is always important that I go back to the basic to reflect what I did was the 'right' thing to do.

The whole point is: sometimes when we are envious of people, we forgot the whole point that we need to love others, we may end up back-stabbing, turning hostile?

A fable to end it all:

There was an eagle who was envious of another that could fly better than he could. One day the bird saw a sportsman with a bow and arrow and said to him, "I wish you would bring down that eagle up there." The man said he would if he had some feathers for his arrow. So the jealous eagle pulled one out of his wing. The arrow was shot, but it didn't quite reach the rival bird because he was flying too high. The first eagle pulled out another feather, then another--until he had lost so many that he himself couldn't fly. The archer took advantage of the situation, turned around, and killed the helpless bird.

If you are envious of others, the one you will hurt most by your actions will be you.
