I miss those days…

when we had so much fun.

when we slept barely 3 hours a day.

when we joked and laughed and poke fun of each other.

when we helped one another out.

when we put in our 100% for the project.

when time wasn’t on our side.

where we barely made it in time.

 

2 weeks, 14 days, 336 hours.

The most tiring but fulfilling days of 2010. (:

Mad House

Recently, my life has turned into a mad house.

Not that it was smooth-sailing all along (*rolls eyes), but well, the roller-coasters are tuned to travel higher this time round!

FYP madness I would say!

Every anxious (i am being very courteous using this instead of …) student is busy-ing sending out emails, going for interviews, trying to impress their interviewers as much as they can, trying to secure the top choice as much as they can.

Urgh, now you can ‘see’ all the ugly tactics.

Gees, yes i understand everyone is worried about not being able to get into that oh-so perfect project you have probably dreamed of since you have been born, but is there really a need to go that far? Really? Seriously? Do you have to go around assuring your interviewers that you will select them as your top choice when you don’t? You are depriving others of a chance! Come on, you can only select one as your top choice, so logically, how is it possible to give the assurance to 5 different profs? Superhuman powers, perhaps huh.

I am getting sick and tired of all these. Why do humans behave in such manner? Why do we tend to ‘degrade’ ourselves by portraying such behaviour? I just don’t understand the motives/ reasons behind all these. And I don’t believe there can be any good reason for such behaviour at all.

Anyway, this battle is not one for me, and definitely not one I would willingly get into. :(

I shall just pray (really really hard) for a prof that is understanding, willingly to teach and give me the chance to learn as much as possible within that time frame. Location wise I think it can be a good sacrifice I can get a good prof. So, I will really pray hard! =)

p.s: ain’t making much progress in my elective =(

Is the Grass always Greener on the Other Side?

As the saying goes…

The grass is always greener on the other side

So, is this entirely true? Here’s something for you to ponder and think about too :)

In my opinion, I would say “Nah.” I don’t really believe in this. Yes, it is human nature to want to posses what others have which we do not have. It is human nature to think that others always have it easier than us… that the surrounding people are more fortunate than us, and we are the ones that always have to suffer etc…

BUT, once you reach the other side, you would have realize that the green over there is not greener. In fact, it might have been ‘less green’ than your own patch.

I feel everyone should be comfortable in their own grass patch. Learn and grow from our own grass patch. Rather than constantly looking over to the other side, wishing that you could have the chance to step into that ‘greener’ grass patch, why not make your own grass patch ‘greener’? (:

Success does not come easily. This we all know isn’t it? We may think that our own situation is in dire state, and others are far more fortunate that us. But, before you start having this thinking, stop yourself and ask yourself this question: What if I am in the other person’s shoes? Now, what we think is good may not apply for others. The person whom you think is in the ‘greener’ patch may be struggling through a difficult situation in life, but yet put on a smile so as not to let others worry. Or, the person may indeed be in a ‘greener’ patch, but I believe it comes at a price. The higher you climb, the harder you fall…

Anyway, i just wanted to share this thought for today. Its time for an episode of my Jap drama before I call it a night.

Gd’night folks!

LET IT OUT

Let it all out, let it all out

You don’t have to act so brave
The flowers that somebody scribbled on the wall are swaying

Nobody knows what makes them unique
We both lose and gain
By embarking on this long, long path
And though there may be days
Loneliness strikes and makes us weep

Let’s turn our tears and pain into stars
We’ll light a candle to illuminate our tomorrow
Even if we get a little lost, together we’ll make stardust
We’ll search for the eternity that shines so brightly

Let it all out, let it all out
There’s a lot of things you lack, aren’t there?
But it’s okay you aren’t perfect
That’s how I met you in the first place

You wanted to know what exactly what tomorrow was
You had a little knife hidden in your sock
But putting on a brave face and telling the lie
Hurt so much more

I know that you might be scared
But you’ll keep moving forward
The meaning behind your smile is playing in the wind
Let’s hold up our little hands
And together we’ll make stardust
We’ll search for the eternity that shines so brightly

What should we do if what we thought was right
Turns out to be wrong?
We can only accept that some truths will cause us sorrow
I thought I had lost everything
But only you know it’s not like that
I’m so thankful that you’re here with me

Let’s turn our tears and pain into stars
We’ll light a candle to illuminate our tomorrow
Let’s hold up our little hands
And together we’ll make stardust
For an eternity that shines so brightly

There may come a day when we have to say goodbye
Yet the seasons continue to change obliviously
Even if I lose myself, I’ll continue to walk
Walk by your side
That’s one thing I’d like to never change

Prezi

Chris recommended Prezi, an online presentation tool.

one word.

AWESOME.

I am going to download the trial version and try it out tomorrow.

Despite everyone being busy with their own tests, presentations, assignments, I think its a miracle we can get together and do the report as a team. Fighting!

Anyway, as the chief marketing officer (LOL) I have finished the company’s trademark, name cards and template for presentation. My eyes are POPing out now. They hurt – which means I have been staring at the screen for too long and its TIME for sleep!

Night~!
