  • The faithful steel ruler

    It's been a long time that I did not even realise the changes Xanga's made.

    And changes in everybody else's, everything else. 

    This cute guy is taken. =P

    Always good to see changes.

    The excitement when you see Gardens is now in Pyramid, the sadness you feel for Pancake House 'cause it's being replaced - and you used to dine there the day before your best friend leaves to the States, you see 'Coach' beside the main entrance and you go OH! COACH IS IN PYRAMID! A few trendy boutiques that you are yet to explore, Pork burger that you are yet to try out.

    Oh, I Love.

    New things are always so nice, so refreshing. It excites you.

    When the sky turns dark and you are all alone, that is when you started to realise how much you've missed the old ones.

    How much you miss having Pancake House so that your memories will always stay intact, how much you miss crying into the phone complaining about how stressful study life is just to hear the soft comforting voices of your parents, how much you miss carrying packets of chicken and tea that your friends/roommates have ordered when you're outside, how much you miss making birthday presents until late night just because you know the person will be pleased to see the prezzie, how much you miss having your dog running wild and licking your feet endlessly, how much you miss cuddling into mom's warmth while you tell her your stories, how much you miss fighting with your siblings over taking the front seat in the car, how much you miss telling your friends Aza aza Huaiting! when exams are near, how much you miss the skipping of heartbeat when he is around.

    First week in qiao da. Cool people =)

    Life goes on, life rewards you when you deserve it. As we are leaving behind every second, they might/might not become a piece of precious memory to you.

    After all, we've all learned how to appreciate and give. Or are learning. Live every second like they are the end, and cherish them while you can.

    Chak! Freeze time like this =D

    I always dislike it when people take things for granted. Nobody's born to serve you, why can't we treat those who love and care for us in a nicer way? Heading towrards a new direction doesn't necessary equals to thrashing your old stuffs away, especially ones who care so much about you, ones who have stayed faithful with you all these while, like my steel ruler who has stayed with me for more than a decade. I'd be really sad if I lost it. Having the opportunity for brand new just means that now you decipher the essence which makes life perfect, and to treasure them.

    Steel Ruler has been with me through all thick and thin exams, draws countless graphs, helps me to remember better of all the key points, scores 99 in Math for me, canceling stuffs i don't want, and dances around my fingers when I'm bored. Maybe I would not have been who I am today if it wasn't for Steel Ruler. Small things highlights significance. It makes me happy, and guide me through when I am lost and down.

    I admit that it has been with me for too long that I sometimes even forgot about its existence.

    Breakfast for ten, DIY, dear's house.

    And search for it when I need it. Running high and low when I couldn't find it.

    So typical of human's nature. We only start to realise and look for things/people, when we need them.

    When Steel Ruler is nowhere to be seen, I messed up. I can't draw, I can't memorise, I can't delete.

    Only then I realised its importance.

    And I got frustrated because it just went missing. I am angry of Steel Ruler for hiding himself, I am angry of myself for losing it.

    Changes is spelt here. They all looked hideous.


    I know I am lucky, when Steel Ruler decides its way back to me. It has always been that faithful. I am treasuring it more than ever.

     

    Would you think twice before you decide to lose it again?

    YAY finally i made my official appearance in your  blog !!!!! =D


    I dont know if changes are good but i guess we just have to live the presence. But one thing for sure tho, people change because they went through different experiences in life. Some just dont have a choice but to change because the past made them who they are. 
    As your roomie for a year plus, i aint gonna ask you to stop thinking too much. Im just gonna ask u to not think too deeply into things like this. The past will always be a piece of memory you treasure and nothing in the present or future is gonna change it. So lets just make the best of this present because very soon, its gonna be a past too. 3 years isnt really that long you knowww.... :)
    Happy new year !!! may the past be the past...
    love ya roomie =)

    haha you misunderstood me darling. i have not been thinking deeply for god knows how long, which i'm pretty glad about it. this post was supposed to be a random one but somehow it didn't turn out that way. i was telling how i've learnt to appreciate and treasure the present,as well as the memories and things that i have; and that i'd very much hope that everyone else will never take things for granted and cherish people around as much as possible. which is something i'm trying to do as well. especially for people who love you for who you are, do not just shove them away when you've found a new toy.

    yes, we all change. in fact among my friends i have the most fluctuations and most are according to my surroundings. some changes, i'm glad. some, no.

    2010 had been a great year with you guys around, really. one change in me which i'm happy about - is that i have finally quit dwelling in the past and put 'live the presence' into practice. i mean, life's short, we might not have the best but hey, let's make the best out of every situation. i'm becoming a master in it. heh.

    love each and everyone of you. happy new year! =)
