Quotes of the day

" To serve people takes dignity and intelligence. But remember, they are only people with money. And although we serve them, we are not their servants. What we do, Miss Ventura, does not define who we are. What defines us is how well we rise after falling.."

Well, I guess nobody would remain the same. Everyone encounters change processes in every minute, every second. Everyone has gone through many ups and downs but at least, we've got a clear idea what would the best person to be after all of these roller coaster moments.

Nothing stays the same. Friendship would never be longer the same, daily basis would not stay static as you expected, and no offense, maybe your boyfriend and girlfriend would not be the same as what you had, back to 10 years ago. Put as simply as possible, life, indeed is unpredictable. No one knows what would be up next.

This reminds me when I came to the United States. Time flew, like a blink of an eye. I did face numerous challenges. Meeting different people from different background was a real big challenge to me. However, I was able to spice my life up, perfectly!

"When comes to love; not by finding a perfect person, but by learning to see an imperfect person perfectly"

I guess this quote illustrates not only love. It is also about life. It depends on how you view this world, how to create meanings after interacting with people when crisis happened, when changes were made. This makes you a better person. Trust me. =)

Happiness, Satisfaction and Appreciation.

What did you find in this picture? What did they have in common?

The image “http://z3ro.files.wordpress.com/2007/09/happiness2.jpg” cannot be displayed, because it contains errors.
Happiness, I suppose.

When it comes to this, I personally think that I am caught in the middle of nowhere.

One of my friends may possibly say "life is short, we should enjoy and cherish what we have now".

Meanwhile another friend of mine says, "you should start planning you future, you are too much enjoying yourself right now, look at the people around you, look at how they struggle in their day-to-day lives and blah blah blah".

It sounds really like I am contradicting myself but it really is ... Simply, I am trapped between satisfactions that highly drive too much (in which I never know what satisfaction is) and appreciations that pay too little (meaning I never appreciate).

And I do not know what I am mumbling here.. you can see how complicated I am.. I can't decide on what I want. I have a complicated patchwork of damaging attitudes, negative behaviors and ... well, the list is never ending and destructive. This is an uncompromising ugliness of her life. She never appreciates and experiences the fullness of life that God intended yet she complains endlessly...

Satisfaction meets when self-actualization accomplished.

Yet, strangely, when the richer you are, apparently no happier. Why? And when can we get accomplished at the level of self-actualization that ultimately would be linked to your satisfaction? Confused.

To put it in today’s terms, owning an iPod doesn’t make you happier, because you then want an iPod Touch. Relative income — how much you make compared with others around you mattered far more than absolute income, Mr. Easterlin wrote.

Is it true money does buy happiness after all?

Maybe

I Heart It

Since when I love pink? Worse comes to worst, since when I love "Hello Kitty"?

Well, it is not a biggie anyway. I just fall in love with all of these recently and I have told myself that I am gonna get all of these!!!! Hopefully

A digital camera with bling

Next, little outdated pink electronics but still can keep it as a collection, isn't it?

Personal CD players! Hahahaha...



A set of Bonjour bath collection. Ain't cute?


And a water dispenser. I don't know why I am getting this. I am just into all of these. =(


Next, a toster. Cute right?

Guess what is this? It's a waffle maker. I usually eat at outside and I am wondering why I need this? Hahaha..

And then, I am going to get these bags. I know I won't use this but I wanna keep it for fun. But it is so hard to get because of this brand. =( Sad enough to say this though. I have only found bags that I don't really like in terms of its designs.

Look!! They are faux croc classic totes. Too classic.

Hence, bring me to this shop so that I could get a cheeky bag that I want!!

Messages

**Please do not spend time reading on this **

One fine day, when I woke up sitting on bed, and waiting for my laptop to get connected to the Internet. First thing I would do when the Internet got connected was signing in my MSN. Next, I would look at their displayed messages.

Person A: "Learned what it was like to wake up one day and have people you care about was gone". Apparently, I m worried of this! I could not imagine what I would do if one day, this really happened on me. It makes me to realize how much I need to cherish people that around me for all the time.

Person B: "Dead tired". Yes, I really am for all these days!!! =(

Person C: "My lab report was rejected" I know how it feels because this bothers me all the time. The next subject matter that I am going to worry about is definitely THIS! There is no proofreading or whatever things that can make you to amend if you did wrong. Disaster!

Person D: "I did not want anyone to see into my facade". Well, I guess nobody wants to look at a false, artificial and superficial effect of you! Be yourself, as it is easier said than done though! At times, certain things do not allow us to do that.

Person E: "Slap me over". Come on biatch, I need this too!

What is going on these days? People complain a lot about their day-to-day lives. So do I. Whenever looking at MSN displayed messages, most of it reflecting of what I am doing now. Sigh!
