Recruiting Blogring Owner

Been a really long time since I last blogged...

However, I thought I should hand over the ownership of this blogring to someone who is still studying in NTU and actively blogging...

Blogring owner don't have to do anything specific. Probably just leave a comment welcoming the incoming new bloggers and manage the membership to ensure the members are postive ones.

Please leave a comment to indicate that you are interested in becoming one.

Graduate~!

Finally Engines started

It came late.. really late.. only the days near to end of this year, I had finally started working on my FYP seriously. Before this, frankly, nothing much had been done. Too hateful to start, too lazy to begin, watever, excuses. What need to be done, must be done..

Better late than never isn't it?

Pretty much my life is .. school work..  really I don't have much relationship to talk of.. except very well communicated parents.

Often, I find myself difficult to communicate with peers.. mindset difference as my parents and I had agreed on while discussing such an issue. Very much a complex tinking, so complex that I don't know really how to "simplify" my thoughts to "accodomate" my peers. Turned out usually friends will just say, You tink too much, why make things so complex? or i worry too much..

Hmm.. break taken.. i should get back and work on my FYP..

Cal enabling the xanga lock to see who really do view my blog and concern about me.. I believe in mutual concern... a one-sided concern is never ever-lasting~


Thursday, December 14, 2006

Ever since Holidays started, seemingly life had been quite aimless (though I had FYP, but can't seems to put my heart into doing it).. recent happening at home really required my attention.. so most of the time hiding at home..
But sad, I would be around in hall this weekend because.. well lets just say i'm not "welcomed" to be home this weekend...

heres what my "da sao" email me this evening... asking me to take note..
n i replied.. i had done some very silly stuff as well but too bad it wasn't treasured either..

11.05pm, guy and gal were chatting happily, when guy uncontrollably yawns

bad example
============

gal (sounding out): you feeling sleeping??

guy: yeah, tired from work...

gal (sounds concern): ok, shan't disturb u, go and sleep lah

guy: ok, you have an early nite too..

guy hangs up the phone.

5 min later, phone rings

awaken by the phone rings, guy: hello?

gal: .............

guy: who's this?

gal (feeling unjust): you felt very bothered by me is it?

guy (confused): huh? what?

gal: .............

guy: why? what happened?

gal: you find me very bothersome is it?

guy: bothersome? why you said this??

gal: ..............

guy: what's the matter? how i would know if you dun say it out?

gal: we are chatting halfway, and you yawn, and went off to sleep...

guy: b...but, you are the one who ask me to go to sleep...

gal: you already said want to sleep already, what else u want me to say?



guy: haiz... if you wanna chat, just say so... what for tell me to go
sleep, and feeling unhappy in the end?

gal: since when i'm unhappy?

guy: isn't this unhappy? ok ok, i won't sleep the next time, will that do?

gal: what's the point? i want you to chat with me willingly, and not
because afraid that i will be unhappy...


In the end, guy spend another ?comforting gal, actual sleep time is
11.40 pm, plus the earlier argument, he did not have a good sleep. what worse is the gal may argue with the same thing again the next day.



good example
============

gal (sounding out): you feeling sleepy?

guy (tired vocal, but sound interested) : abit, tired from work. but you
have not finished talking, carry on, i will be listening.

gal (felt consoled): orh, but since you are tired, go and sleep then
(still sounding out) never fall into the trap and hang up the phone

guy: there's no afternoon break today, indeed more tiring. how abt i give
u a call tomorrow morning. let's chat awhile more ok? (tells the reason, and offer make up measure)

gal: oh ok. go and sleep now, you must be tired.

gal is willing to let guy go sleep, but guy must do a bit more than this


guy: so what time you are going to sleep?

gal: not sure, probably a bit later.

guy: ok, but not too late, not good for health. i will be heart pain one
hor...

gal (feeling loved): ok lah...

guy: i love you the most! (even if eyes are shutting also must
remember to say this impt words, else all effort wasted)

gal: i loved you too, have a good rest! (happy till can float liao)

guy: ehmm...

gal hang up the phone


in the end, 11.10pm. guy sleep peacefully, and probably a morning call
from gal the next day...



conclusion 1:

female wants feeling and care. most of the time, female's logic cannot
be figured out with a reasoning mind.

conclusion 2:

say a few more touching words, concerning lines, will save you more
than ½hr of precious time

conclusion 3:

when encounter the above situation, must always let the gal hang up
the phone first. else it will be disastrous...


conclusion 4:

if your gf isn't like the one in the example, then congrats to u!
treasure her! but if otherwise, dun accuse her of being unreasonable. what she wants is very simple..

People would usually treasure when only what they owned is lost. Health is probably one of the most neglected treasures for everyone. When suddenly it is lost, one would then know how important it had been.

 

First week after my exams, I probably would have a less stressful period of time after the demanding exams. Indeed, I had been a loafer for the past two or three days. A few mahjong sessions, attempted to organize outing, considering going for movies, now all have to be forgotten. Hardly, I would find any of the future time enjoyable much.

 

This Wednesday evening, I went with my elder brother to airport to fetch my mother. My mum had been to China for a trip. Unfortunately, she met with an accident. An accident that probably will leave scars in the future, more importantly, hardly walk now.

 

Looking at my mum, suddenly felt how old she had grown. Watching her coming out of the luggage area to the waiting zone breaks my heart. She had this bandage on her face and bruises everywhere. She could hardly speak or eat. I could hardly imagine she being full health when I sent her off the preceding morning straight after my exams.

 

I felt responsible. I have to take care of my mum. Its about time for me to shoulder the responsibilities of taking care of parents.

 

I don’t really know how to describe my feelings now. I’m like so sad and shocked to see my mum in this state….
