Drawing

Drawing requires high level of concentration and patient. The last time I draw was seven years ago. This time, I am going to draw the picture below.

I made it as a challenge for myself. Till now, I have finished the drawing, just left the coloring part, which is also the most difficult part.

STAY TUNED :-)

恶作剧之吻

最近几乎都没看连续剧了

可是这部却是必看的

我也说不上来到底哪里好看的

整部剧就袁湘琴围绕着江直树转

中间出现几个喜欢湘琴直树的

或许是因为袁湘琴实在是笨得太可爱了吧

也可能是因为剧情轻松搞笑

就看的时候很开心

哈哈。。

No more shopping

One thing I am sure I am right is that NO TRAVELLING in this long holiday. At least until this moment, I am not regret with the decision.

Many people would say that it was a waste for not travel during the long holiday because you couldn't easily get holiday when you were working. For me, what matter most now is money. MONEY is everything that decide. I would rather use the money to do some shopping which brought equal happiness to me. But don't get me wrong. This doesn't mean that travel has no meaning to me. I strongly agree that travel will widen one's horizon. Just that, this isn't the right time for me to do so.

So other than sleeping, eating, watching TV, another activity that I do most in this holiday is SHOPPING.

I get to shopping at least twice in a month. Most of the time, it was just WINDOW SHOPPING. But this doesn't mean that I didn't spend at all. You see, I need to spend for meal, petrol, parking fee and sometimes movie. It would roughly be RM 25++ for each outing.

This is OK. And it's still OK if I buy something needs. E.g. I think it's worth to spend RM100 for three piece of formal wear as they can be wore for years. It's only NOT OK when I bought something that not worth it. This is exactly what happen today! I bought two items that wasn't worth it and I wonder why I bought them in the first place.

The lesson is, don't bring more money than you need. You tend to buy more when you have more. Don't buy something because you are sorry for not buying it after a long service from the shopkeeper. If you think it is not worth it. Don't buy it in the first place.

This gonna be the last shopping for me in this holiday. I ought to do something more meaningful starting tomorrow..

Ocarica

A friend of mine bought me this instrument in Taiwan two years ago. It is called "陶笛" in Chinese and ocarica in English. I thought it is originated from the China. But, to my surprise, its earliest use was in Bologna, Italy.

I never practice hard on it. So far, i have only played once or twice. Most of the time, it's hiding in the box peacefully on my rack.haha..

front..

and back..

This morning my student found it on my rack. She was so EXCITED to play on it and even asked me if i have the flippleflute (竖笛). So you can guess, that my English class had turned to Music class.. That little one knew many piano pieces but suprisingly little of folk-songs.

She liked this folk most and couldn't stop playing it with the flippleflute..

This one, I finally recalled it's rhyme..It's such a lovely melody!

Later on, there was melody of flippleflute from my neighbour. I guess it made us recalled of our childhood, isn't it? :-)

Life's Missing Instruction Manual

It has been years since I last went to the public library in Seberang Jaya. I used to study at there when i was in Form Six. Five years later, I went there again out of boredom and in the hope of finding some good books to read.

and..This was the book i found on the display rack. I have read "The Secret" by Rhonda Byrne before, but I couldn't finish it. Perhaps it's because that I do not really favour the writing style.

This book got a different style. I like the way the author put in the philosophy of life in a short, simple and inspiring way. There isn't any law to follow, just some straight forward points from the author that we all might or might not be realized. Another reason is that there are just157 pages, so it isn't that thick anyway. I do believe that I able to read it all. haha..

Here are few experts from the book that i would like to share here:

"Once you get the lesson of any experience, you don't need to repeat the experience. Until you get the lesson, you will continue to recreate the experience, escalating in pain, until you get the lesson."

"Be not afraid. Do the thing you wish, and walk through the fear. On the other side, is freedom."

"Fear is one of the most common human emotions. The common response to fear is to try to reduce it. Although this is the natural response, it is also the least helpful response. The more you avoid experiencing anxiety, the more your discomfort will grow over time. Push yourself to get out of the comfort zone you may be living in. You will enter the place where your most tremendous personal and professional success will begin."

"Nothing bad ever happens to you. There it is. It's the secret to handling failure. You go on to the next thing. You don't give up. You take a deep breath. You dust yourself off. You learn. And you do the next thing. Failure is not death."

如果说

不努力的话

又怎么能够拥有属于我的骄傲呢？

p/s:可是女孩似乎忘了，自信不是来自外表，而是内涵，是智慧；是气质不是漂亮。

关于发型

除了身高以外，发型是另一个让我不满意的地方

发质不好再加上卷发

这样的情况让我很难剪得一头满意的发型

p/s：每个女孩都相信自己会有飞上枝头变凤凰的一天，于是她们努力的改造自己。

Bon Odori

想不起了，我是哪一年去的

印象中，如果不是中二，那应该是中四

我记得与我同伴的是谁，也还记得，在回家的渡轮上，我遇到了谁

还有

那璀璨的烟火

在即将消失的那一瞬间

就像是降落在身上流星

「那是我记忆里最美丽的烟火」

羡慕

我常常羡慕别人

不只羡慕

还会希望自己也成为那样的人

很久以前的时候

我费了很大的力气成为我羡慕的人

直到很后来的时候我才发现原来自己很傻

为了什么把原本好好的自己弄得那么不开心

这毛病并没有完全的改过来

只不过我不再那么傻的把自己搞得那么不开心

偶尔做做梦，偶尔羡慕别人，偶尔把这些羡慕变成小小的推动力

p/s:希望有一天，我可以拥有属于我自己的风格

第三人称

从两个人的世界里

抽身出来

用第三人称的位置

再看回两个人的世界

原来我可以那么理智地分析

:-)

This is your life

I read this meaningful entry from Bing and would like to share it here.

p/s: if you don't have enough time, stop watching tv.
