im feeling a thousand shades of mixed up now.
dads been offered a new job! nice one dadd:)
but this one will take him overseas again
to shanghai (again)
honestly im sort of disappointed. dad's going to be hitting retirement age soon
he should be seizing the chance to get some good rest at home with us.
lynn is also going overseas to beijing for her three month internship
i guess the word is morose. im feeling morose.
im also listening to ellie goulding's the writer while thinking all this moroseness up in my brain.
which does not really help with feeling better
university applications are getting nowhere.
creativity, im going to make time and brain space for you
like what the article suggested. youd better come on time.
moronic lah, you.
youve been informed, warned and then shaken on the shoulder.
still not cured.
job wise, i honestly feel youre defeating yourself.
you keep thinking of greener pastures
true, its important to see with your heart
but also as important to see with your brain
and more importantly, your instinct.
balance the instinct to fly or fight.
manage your mind.
stage 6 in japan's ongoing nuclear crisis.
please be safe.
dad says its all part and parcel of life.
sadness and happiness, struggle and triumph, separation and reunion.
there's really no need to wax lyrical over the mundane of our daily life.
just like
there's no need to make gouging out a plastic spoon from the sink pipe
a whole lemony snickets series of unfortunate events.
by the way, the above did happen
i spent 20 min trying to screw back the pipe with my hands full of muck and was cursing and swearing at my dad who was still watching tv, when i realised that ive been screwing the wrong direction.
i suppose dad has a point.
which can be summarised by one of my favourite quotes from fruits basket:
shigure: you young people are always so busy struggling about your life, that you do not realise that if you'd just stay still, you'd float.
hatsuharu: but the only way to reach to this point, is to struggle until youre too tired to do so anymore.
sometimes, it still amazes me what you can learn frm furuba or asterix&obelix, that you cant find in say rudyard kipling or jane austen. it also amazes me how many people dont take me seriously when i make this claim.
on sidenote, aisyah, jin pei, yeeting and pohua are leaving!:(
only left a handful of us only..
must take it with a cest la vie attitude but honestly-
pooei.
