Awakening Month of Life Is Too Short [The True Meaning of Life Series 5]

It will soon to be the end of my very long holiday! Yes, this month should be the month that I start to plan my course of life. Yet, slacking is the main priority of my life right now. Sad, but, it is going to end soon.

These days, life is so boring. I don't like to study[who does?!] But, after months of holiday, there is a huge change in me physically and mentally. Physically = fat; Mentally = urge to learn. Yes, holidays are the best days to gain weight effortlessly. To my own surprise, I suddenly have the urge to increase my capacity of knowledge. Plus, I am so dying for assignments to come into my way. Yes, for the past 2 years, assignments were hellish to me. Yet, this holiday changes me for now?! Maybe, when my uni starts, I would be my old-self again?! It all seem so mysterious to me!!!

Recently, I was watching quite a number of shows and dramas. Inspirations are surfacing "profusely". Life really terribly short!!! E.g: Currently, I am 20-year-old. If I can up to 80-year-old, this would mean that I have already use 1/4 or a quarter of my life. Gosh!!! During these 3 months, I really wasted a lot of time. But, what is so nice about wasting time is that I figure it out that life is really short[it took me long enough><] - like Shakespeare's Life Brief Candle, a poem that I have learn during my secondary school days. That's why me must treasure the time we have.

Yes, I have an awakening moment month. It is time to go back to my uni!!! It is time to work hard. Life is too short to waste!!! So, before my life ends, I want to do something meaningful, something memorable, something forever and something that I would regret if I don't do it!!!

1. Yasmin Ahmad - a talented director who dedicated her ability to promote unity through her films.
2. Michael Jackson - a legendary dancer and singer who changed the world with his music.
3. Xjion89 - a partime blogger who lived a simple life with no regrets!

[Yup, as you can see, there is an odd one out from the list above]..Haha, it depends on how you want to live you life. Every person would have their own way to blossom in life. Maybe, I choose the simple way to blossom.

人无千日好，花无百日红。

The Chinese Proverb above really tells us about life. Life would not be as smooth just like flower would not blossom whole year long.[Direct translation applied]. We would have our ups and downs. But, there would a time or 2 times or 3 times that we could peak ourselves in life. Remember[ Mariah Carey who has set a record of 18 No.1 Singles. ]She was a waitress[down]. She was a singer[up]. Her movie career was disastrous[down]. She is a hip-hop queen now[up]. There's why people would have their moments of ups and downs.

Omg, why am I sounding like a fake philosopher?! Maybe I watch too many TV shows.

Yet, the truth is life is short! Just try to reduce the regrets in life(^^)

Farewell, A Friend of Mine (1) Janice

Time really flew like the speed of light. Just like that, I have been studying in my uni for 2 years already. I still remembered the day I stepped foot on the ground of my uni. It was a secluded area with limited resources[No Kidding]. Today, I have a bunch of uni friends who I have spent 2 years together without realising it. Now, some decide to stay; some are leaving in this month. Oh, I am gonna miss them.

Today, I am going to clear one of my blog posts debt. Yes, truly in debt, because these few days, I was in KL meeting soME friends who will be leaving. Anyway, this little farewell was for Janice, held in IPOH PARADE. Well, she is the 1st person who really gives without asking. A long time ago, she gave me some sincerely gifts from Hong Kong [here]. She was and is a true friend indeed.

Janice, the same name as my favourite singer, and I have known each other for about 2 years. Our friendship is kinda short, but, she is cool!!!. Anyway, if u remember my previous previous post [here], it was a mini farewell for Janice. As usual, just lunch and movie!

Firstly, we had our lunch at Kenny Rogers!

Well, the food there was okay only! Personally, the chicken and the smash potatoes were a bit spicy due to too much peppers in the dishes. Overall, it was okay~~~. One thing I must point out - Their Macaroni Cheese was in a huge portion!!! Even Shiwei couldnot finish it!~!!!

rating:
Decoration: 7.5/10 [All thanks to Kenny Rogers Portraits]
Food Appearance: 6/10
Taste: 4.5/10
Price: 3/10

Of course, the main character of the day was Janice who is as shY as me!

Since she refused to show her pretty face, I had no choice to take a photo of her sexyback@@...hahaha~~~

After that, we were wondering in Ipoh Parade, walking here and there. Then, we came to the Teddy Bear Land in Bum City. Yup, models of the day! Shiwei and Alice~~~
It was kinda of cool to take pic in front of all those cute teddy bears. Well, Janice, also took 1; but, due to personally reason[she is shy], I decided not to post it up here..hahahaha!

Next week, she would be leaving UK as a transfer student. Therefore, she would finish all the studies there. Yes, she is not coming back after a year like the mobility programme. Haiz!!!!


Janice, this post is for u!!!
All the best!!!
Have Great Life in UK!!!

Sweet Memory 1989

1989, my birth year!!! Yes, I am telling everyone my age. Yet, isn't that important for guys or gals, right? During my 20 years walking on the surface of the earth, I saw many remarkable sights, tasted amazing cuisine, and smell horrific stench from the dumpyard!

Sweet Memory 1989 is my personally diary of the things that I love during my childhood up to my teenage life and up to my adulthood. After 10 years, I would be 30-year-old. I think that it would be interesting to look back into my childhood and teenage life.

Anyway, back to the image above, well, since young, I have a huge heart on this sweet. If you can see the wrapping of the sweet, it said:" 黄心梅 in Chinese and きろこころうめ　in Japanese. Both also mean yellow-hearted plum [ forgive my direct translation><] Firstly, thanks to some basic Japanese classes, I am able to identify that this sweet might be from Japan. Haha(^^) If you have watch Up[Here], the 78-year-old man lived inside his memory until he decided to change his life by fulfilling his wife's dream to "balloon" the house to Paradise Fall! At the end, when he looked back into his memory book (The Adventure Book by Ellie, his deceased wife), he finally knew that they did not live a disappointing live as inside her adventure book was the sequence of pictures of their young life to their older days. She treasured every moment they had even though they did not make a lot money, have children, or even travel the world. Those were the simple yet forever memory of their lives.

Ooo, before and after inspired by this movie, I am going to make a My Adventure Blog(^^)...haha.... It is not about age! There will be geniuses at the tender age of 10; but, there will also be elderly setting record despite their ages. That is life! Nothing is impossible!!!!


My achievement so far-----

• eat a lot of Japanese buffet[here, here, ...]
  
• eat more food![here, here, here, .,.....infinity]
• beg-packing in Cambodia! [here, here,here, here]
  
• Learn to swim without drowning but, with the fat on my body now, I am sure that I can float naturally(^^)

Ain't those achievements worth nothing to be mention to some people?! Well, it means a lot to me because there were so many first in there.......I am no superman; I am just somebody finding the path that I want to walk!!! No Mozart, no Edison, no super-young genius - I am me! Comparing myself to others would only make me feel tired![note: comparing with other ppl is the typical Chinese family tradition^^]

My Targets

• Buy a house as soon as possible
• Travel around the world
• Become a trillionaire
• Become World Next Top Model@@!!!???
• Become a legend!!!

Haha, we set the targets! Is this possible, maybe?! But, is this truly what we want and what we urge for?! I really have those dream before...or have I?! Anyway, it is not important as long as we are contented with what we have!!! Becoming World Next Top Model, in my dreams...haha><

Omg, i sound so emo~~~ not really, actually, during this 3 months, I think a lot~~~~~~~maybe, I successfully found 禅（zen)....?!
