wanna be with u no matter what?

saw this somewhere quite meaningful

情人节快到了，
我对月老说：我希望和我喜欢的人永远在一起。
月老说：只能四天.
我说好：春天夏天秋天冬天。
月老说：只能三天。
我说好：昨天今天明天。
月老说：只能两天
我说：白天黑天。
月老说：就一天
我说好：
月老茫然问：要哪一天？
我说：每一天
月老哭了

两情若是久长时，又岂在、朝​朝暮暮

《鹊桥仙》 秦观
纤云弄巧，飞星传恨，银汉迢迢暗度。金风玉露一相逢，便胜却、人​间无数。
柔情似水，佳期如梦，忍顾鹊桥归路。两情若是久长时，又岂在、朝​朝暮暮。

(stole this from KLN's status muahaha)

Happy Chinese Valentine =)

Dream

A dream is a wish your heart makes when you're fast asleep

Success

after a messy post, here's something to balance that...



"In the end, the extent of your own success will be measured by the accomplishments that you have helped create in others"


Saw this in the toilet of Clare pharmaacy.. i like it..

although not all view success the same way


小时候想长大时当个女强人（i still believe.. i can do it)..不过，现在..多了选择.. 当女强人，有时也会很累，想有个肩膀依靠.. if i have kids, i would give up 90% of my work to nurture them... at least that's what i have in mind now, i might change my mind in future =P (maybe husband can be househusband and look after kids while i go out to work hahaha just kidding)

Empower Me

Nobody knows, how weak I am, better than You

i woke up, with this song stuck on my head...

Empower me =)

more quotes

Missing someone isn't about how long it has been since you have seen them or the amount of time since you've talked. It's about that very moment when you're doing something and you wish that they were right there with you

"i miss how happy i was with you"... "i'm really hoping that you miss me too"


saw these quotes...

could u relate to it? myself.... maybe? sometimes?

at the moment..... couldn't really... too stressed..

i just wanna be pampered~

occasionally i still miss the people i care for... when my mind is less busy =)

had a bit of dramas going on at work today... it was hell of a day... felt... REALLY... TERRIBLE...

like a pipe went loose or something...

but it all ended alright... im glad =)


LOL.. im gonna start adding random quotes that i come across and like... xD

head and eyes are so sore right now ='(

an old poem once taught

If - Rudyard Kipling

If you can keep your head when all about you
Are losing theirs and blaming it on you;
If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you,
But make allowance for their doubting too;
If you can wait and not be tired by waiting,
Or, being lied about, don't deal in lies,
Or, being hated, don't give way to hating,
And yet don't look too good, nor talk too wise;

If you can dream - and not make dreams your master;
If you can think - and not make thoughts your aim;
If you can meet with triumph and disaster
And treat those two imposters just the same;
If you can bear to hear the truth you've spoken
Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools,
Or watch the things you gave your life to broken,
And stoop and build 'em up with wornout tools;

If you can make one heap of all your winnings
And risk it on one turn of pitch-and-toss,
And lose, and start again at your beginnings
And never breath a word about your loss;
If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew
To serve your turn long after they are gone,
And so hold on when there is nothing in you
Except the Will which says to them: "Hold on";

If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,
Or walk with kings - nor lose the common touch;
If neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you;
If all men count with you, but none too much;
If you can fill the unforgiving minute
With sixty seconds' worth of distance run -
Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it,
And - which is more - you'll be a Man my son!

A good apology

A good apology has 3 parts:
1. I'm sorry 2. It was my fault 3. How can I make it right?
But usually people forget the 3rd part.

Came across this from LSH's status update..

So true..

sometimes, we even ignore the 1st 2...

i did realised b4, and am trying to make amends haha... let's hope my dear friends will forgive and forget xD (told them to tell me off straight away next time if i offend them even in the tiniest ways.. but again, i should be less ignorant, and realise it myself and not wait for them to tell me off? lol)

letters to young lover #1

came accross this passage (letters to young lover)... from mother to child who just got married.. thought i shall copy and paste it here..

although it's a Christian's writing (by Ellen White) ... i find that it does apply to all marriages... good advice i would say =)



Edson was the second of Ellen White's four sons. Because of her extensive travel and other responsibilities throughout her busy life, she had to be away from her children. A large collection of her letters to them has been preserved. The following letter was written to Edson and Emma in 1870 shortly after their marriage, and represents a mother's hopes and prayers for the home that has just been established. The counsel shows a loving mother's care for her son, but carries the added dimension of her own experience in receiving divine messages from the Lord in visions.

Camp meeting Grounds Clyde, Ohio
September, 1870

Dear Edson and Emma:

You, my children, have given your hearts to one another; unitedly give them wholly, unreservedly to God. In your married life seek to elevate one another. Show the high and elevating principles of your holy faith in your everyday conversations and in the most private walks of life. Be ever careful and tender of the feelings of one another. Do not allow a playful, bantering, joking censuring of one another. These things are dangerous. They wound. The wound may be concealed, nevertheless the wound exists and peace is being sacrificed and happiness endangered.

My son, guard yourself and in no case manifest the least disposition savouring of a dictatorial, overbearing spirit. It will pay to watch your words before speaking. This is easier than to take them back or efface their impression afterward. Ever speak kindly. Modulate even the tones of your voice. Let only love, gentleness, mildness be expressed in your countenance and in your voice. Make it a business to shed rays of sunlight, but never leave a cloud. Emma will be all to you you can desire if you are watchful and give her no occasion to feel distressed and troubled and to doubt the genuineness of your love. You yourselves can make your happiness or lose it. You can by seeking to conform your life to the Word of God be true, noble, elevated, and smooth the pathway of life for each other.

Yield to each other. Edson, yield your judgement sometimes. Do not be persistent, even if your course appears just right to yourself. You must be yielding, forbearing, kind, tender-hearted, pitiful, courteous, ever keeping fresh the little courtesies of life, the tender acts, the tender, cheerful, encouraging words. And may the best of heaven's blessings rest upon you both, my dear children, is the prayer of your mother.

Mother -- Letter 24, 1870

Good luck charm... for wedding =)
