And I survived 1 day at school.
Nothing much, got only 1 lecture today. :D
I did everything mama told me to do; tidying up. ! ! Spent like 5 hours to make this small space in PGP a better place to live in; sorting things to get rid off clutter, sweep and mop the floor, and the ceiling fan! and noww... my room is fresh and bright, much spacier... !
Ma sent me this message that afternoon

In times like these, usually when I just get back to Singapore from home, I used to suffer from severe homesick. No exception for this time. And that message she sent me brought up so many chemical reaction in my body, resulting to tears, joy, inspiration and strength. I will jia you for you, ma. :)
I know there is no such thing as easy semester. I would be stressed out with school, with people around me, with my weaknesses; and I would usually be persuaded to give up on everything. Ya, that's when the emo posts are coming up. LOL.
I know, and I hope you know it too, that in order to grow, we need to push ourselves. I need to push myself to get out of my comfort zone, to get my butt off my (though not that comfortable in type C room in PGP) bed, to face and taste things that I dislike, to accept and see my own fallings and weaknesses.
No one says it easy. And that's why they invent mothers. :) My mother pushes me to be a better person :D
I think I could take this semester easier than last semester. I was very result-driven, thinking I would be forever doomed if my transcript is not bright enough. But I see, there are a lot of chances, a lot of opportunities, there lies so many ways for me to succeed. Has been thinking to starting an online business to make money. (and I used to think that business people are so not my kind)
Ha, maybe I am more a money driven now. ;b
Money can't buy happiness. But money can buy things that make you happy. :D All I want is to be happy, and what makes me happy is to be able to see happiness inside all the people I love.
But money is not everything. One thing, people keep saying that time is money. Well, for me, time is more important than money. You can waste your money and lost it all, but then somehow you could get them back, by working harder, being more economics, etc... But time goes away, even without you wanting to waste it. And unlike money, you will never to return the time.
Time is invaluable. Cherish the people you love while you still have it.
Going off to sleep. Goodnight, world. Though life has been quite harsh for me, I believe it is teaching me to have those skills that I do not possess currently. And someday I would thank life for these. I could work it out. Above everything, thank you for blessing me with wonderful family and friends. There's nothing ever I could do to be eligible to have them.
Life is bitter. They always remind me that it is a bitter medicine. :)
