nothing better to do



For once, the fat Anya isn't the stupid looking one!


3 converse shoes and 2 paws (1 seen and 1 hidden thanks to Sa's shoes) plus a tail!
What to expect upon entering into my room...and these are just the small ones.

Tear drops on my guitar

He's the reason for the tear drops on my guitar
The only thing that keeps me wishing on a wishing star
He's the song in the car I keep singing, don't know why I do

He's the reason for the tear drops on my guitar
The only one who's got enough of me to break my heart
He's the song in the car I keep singing, don't know why I do
He's the time taken up, but there's never enough
And he's all that I need to fall into..

My sister introduced this song to me a few weeks back but as usual when she talks I listen with one ear only. I know; I know it's rude blah blah but when you live with someone who talks 24/7 you've got to learn how to pretend to be listening when you're actually dreaming away. Anyways, I finally decided to ask my friend for the song and when I listened to it, I immediately fell in love with it. And now the chatter box constantly reminds me that it was her who first introduced the song to me. I told you she talks 24/7!!

Overall, the song has a country touch to it as the artist is a young and upcoming country singer; Taylor Swift. The chorus of this song is the one that attracts me to it especially the second chorus. Like what Jewel wrote in her blog, feelings are unexplainable. It is just a feeling and that's how I feel for the song. There's something unique about the chorus that just captures my attention and I just love it!

Besides all of that, I finally made a decision and that decision is "I shall be sitting for STPM". I know you people must think I am crazy but of course I have my own personal reasons for choosing this tougher route.

The wounds disappear but the scars remain

Ever tried forgetting and ignoring your broken heart?

I have and sadly as much as I try ignoring my thoughts and feelings and avoiding the guy, it doesn't work. Not that I'm interested in him anymore, it is just what he did and said that still hurts me.

The scars still hurt and the pain constantly reminds me that I can trust no one including and especially the ones closest to you.

Total confusion: ADP or STPM? Law or History?

When my parents first told me, "After SPM, go and do STPM" I was thinking in my head, 'What?! STPM...NO WAY!!!'

That was about 2 years ago (2006) and when 2007 was coming to an end, I started thinking and realized that I'm not sure (still am not) of what course I should study or what I want to do in the future. Hence, I came to see that STPM would be a way out as I would still have two more years to think things through though many of you would disagree as it requires a hell lot of work and discipline to sit for this 3rd hardest exam in the world. However, I began to really see things differently (and this is not because of my parents' influence but it was solely on my own thinking and realization) and soon enough I decided that I would not mind sitting for STPM. One main reason for that 180 degree change of heart is because I get to study History. And yes I know it's going to be about Islam, ASEAN etc etc plus it will be in BM, but who cares (ok, well maybe only I don't care). The fact that I can enjoy studying History for another one and a half years is just good enough for me.

When I thought I had my mind made up to enter Form 6 and get through with STPM then later apply for a scholarship to further my studies in USA, I went for the STAR Education Fair and voila! I was confused all over again.

Here are my options now: Law or History.
History is something that I am very (absolutely) passionate about and would not mind just studying this particular subject my whole life. Seriously, I'm not kidding.
Law, on the other hand, is the subject closest to History and the best subject suited for my talent: memorizing (so to speak) besides History. However, I lack the passion for this subject unlike for History. On the plus side for this option is that I will have more job opportunitues compared to the first option.

If I were to do History, I can choose to continue on with STPM; which some qualified people have advised against or I can straight away go for ADP. However, once I do ADP I can't turn back and do Law as USA's Law is not recognized over here.
What about Law then? I can do STPM; which would be a good step and then further my studies to Australia or UK.

I haven't been so confused in a long; long time and now the head is just spinning and spinning and spinning! Am praying hard that I make the right decision as this is I would think so is the decision that's going to set the path for my future. Some say ADP (well mostly my friends) while some *ehem* older people would suggest STPM but at the end of the day it boils back down to what I want and what I think would be the best for me. If I were to do ADP then scholarship is another thing to think about...boy this is never going to end isn't it? Then again, History isn't a course which is widely recognized and Malaysia is one good example. If you mention History to any Malaysians they would likely just ignore you. Thus, that is another headache!

Dedicated to my favourite Squirrel and Dragonfly.

Today has been like any other day; I woke up, showered and all then studied for my undang while online.
Then, my long distance siao friend; who is currently residing in Canada came online (miss her so; so much!), of course I immediately IM-ed her and we started chatting away. A quarter way through our conversation, our other partner in crime came online; she's the not so long distance siao friend. Immediately, the three of us started talking away as the three of us have never spoken all together online since my girlfriend left for Canada. We were talking about this and that, about everything and anything (it was an all girls talk...what do you expect?).

Just talking to them made me appreciate them even more and it made me realize I miss my last three years in secondary school. Even though the three of us saw each other everyday in school and every other day too, at the end of the three years I feel like those days weren't enough becaúse as the days and months passed by, we became closer and we would go everywhere (in school) together.
What I'm trying to say is that for the past three years, all the ups and downs that I had to go through I had them by my side and they were always there for me even though there were times we didn't see eye to eye.
I'm so thankful to God for blessing me with those two girls; we maybe different in certain aspects and opposite in many ways but that is what keeps our friendship going.

Thus, girls (hopefully you'll read this) thanks for everything. Love you both very much.










P.S: Long live Panda, Squirrel and Dragonfly!

L.O.V.E


1 Corinthias 13:4-8
Love is patient, love is kind, it does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. it is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. it always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails.
is the above scripture verse talking about true love? does true love exist?

just another post...

The 1st week of the New Year has just passed by and I have not done much yet and I am praying I'm going to start finding things to do or else by the time I re-enter school, my brain will be so dead (literally). I've just started my baby steps in getting my driving license; I can't wait!!

Okay, I've lost my thinking ability already (hopefully just for now only). Ciao!

2008

2007 was a great year for me. I went through a lot but I managed to overcome every obstacle with the help from my Saviour; my God of course. He has been there for me through it all and I am so thankful and grateful to have Him as my heavenly Father. I shan't start my thank yous' for Him because if I do I won't stop at all.
2008 is going to be a great year!...I hope and pray! =D It's a new year and a new beginning! So thankful to be given another chance to live. However, I realize a new year doesn't mean my brain works any better. I thought I something to blog about but sadly I've completely forgotten about it. Haha. Just hoping for a good year and ooo I'm on a long holiday! For those of you who don't know...I'm going form 6 so yeah that explains my long holiday. Hehe.

"Thank You God for everything!"
