不会吵架的事

不善于吵架 是件好事吗?
有时会很气自己为什么当下忍气吞声,事后才在那边懊恼说为什么刚才没告诉他我有多不满,他有多不对
可是我在想,一旦吵了架,隔天要当没一回事的跟对方讲话,我可能很难办到
所以吵不起架可能是件好事

临场反应慢,不止发生在那种时候,
连在工作时也是如此
往往要让我自己好好思考后,或是冲凉时,睡觉前,等tram时,才会想出有建设性的点

又一个人生大道理

我们为什么会依然活在这个地球上,能够平安活着,绝对是种幸运
你说不是吗?
谁知道哪一天哪一个时刻,一倒霉,不幸的事可能会发生,
可能患重病、发生意外,
好好的一个人就可能这样走了。
人生无常,一点都没说错,
没有人知道自己能活多久,
也没有人知道,人一旦离开了,到底是去了哪里,
还能有喜怒哀乐吗?还能有亲人朋友吗?

多数人需要工作,
因为需要赚钱,才能养活自己,才能维持基本的生活条件,
需要有各种不同的行业,才能互相满足需求,
虽然地球还是会照转,时间还是一样不会停,
人们还是需要工作,社会国家才会运作,人们才能生活
干活是为了过活
但可悲的是,不是每个人都喜欢自己的工作,不是每个人都享受做工
所以,难道说这些人是在浪费自己的生命做着自己不喜欢的事情,只为了能够活下去,
这太矛盾了吧?

想想古时候的人,
种种菜,养养家畜,
满足自己,互相交换,
简单的过着,不要求太多,只要求温饱,还是一样活得好好的
古时候的人比较快乐吗?

所以呢,
人生短短几十年,
‘...明日何其多! ’
好好享受我们的幸运,把握生活,快快乐乐的活!
也不要 ‘明日复明日’
今日不知明日事啊!

i'm just tired of dealing with the plumber!!
last monday, the hot water unit got replaced, since then the plumber came back 3 times to fix the leak around the hot water unit. friday was the last time he came. over the weekend, it seemed to be fixed but when i checked again this morning there's still a small leak, it's so tiny that it doesn't actually drip on the newspaper i put underneath, but when i touched it with a tissue paper, there re water droplets. sien!! thought of checking it this morning for the last time before i pay them for the job!!
and my unhelpful flatmate told me not to get the plumber to come tmr morning (they usually come at 730am) because she wants to sleep in! she has her day-off tmr. !!!!! wth!
i'm so sick of her! when is she getting married?!?!?!

~~~~~~~~~
looking for the accomodations in canada in october. not cheap leh. and the plan of travelling there on my own feels a bit scary. Need to avoid dodgy areas and accomodation. well Toronto is one of the safest city in the world, so it shouldn't be that bad. but on the other hand i'm excited, it's a nice country to visit! and i decided to make a trip to see the Niagara Falls!! woohoo!! always thought the NF is in the US, but it's actually not far from Toronto, at the border of Canada and NewYork :)

i just learnt what is stress,
that's when i realised when i don't handle them well it affects my health/well-being. i know since highschool that it'll make my 'old problem' worse (this problem was completely gone for a year while i'm in trinity college!), but then now there are other problems too

i actully wish that i'm sick *touchwood* so that i can get away from them for a moment, although i know that i still hv to deal with them later.

sigh...

以前呢,有事不想面对,觉得有压力,就会想埋头睡觉,什么都不要想
现在呢,反而不想去睡,因为不想一觉醒来就要面对事情,想再拖一下

享受了 18 天的客厅、沙发、电视,明天开始又要回到房里的书桌了 :( 好惨哦 哈哈
再过两个星期,连在房里都不得清静了
好享受一个人在家,可以为所欲为

——————————————

好想逃跑!
第一次觉得这么想要跑掉
这次不是在怀疑自己的选择,或许是因为知道离开终点不远了

压力加上累了
四年了,真的够了

wow! i just went back to my old blog post to see wat's my year 2010's resolution
and here's what i said:
i should learn to be more forgetful on things i shouldn't rmb;
i should learn to look at certain things with one eye closed;
i should learn to enjoy my life more coz it can be very short;
i should learn to be more talkative to 'strangers' (well not random ppl on the street lar, but more like ppl at work for example, ppl whom i'm not close friends with).

how similar to this year's!!
hmmm not very good huh... means i hvn't achieved much
and also i hvn't changed/grown much :S
The fireworks are one of the best invention in the world, don't you agree?

i love fireworks,
everytime i see fireworks i'm 感动-ed
was watching video snaps of the 2011 new year celebration fireworks around the world on the BBC website, for some reason, i'm almost in tears.
seeing it on the tv screen is different, you need to hear the noise of the fireworks which is like .3 sec behind (light transports faster than sound you see),
and if you're close enough to the source of the fireworks, you need to feel the light on ur face (although there might be ashes and smokes coming to your face too but who cares)

can't imagine how depressed and dissappointing i will be if i'm not seeing the fireworks with my bare eyes when i'm in the city that celebrates with fireworks!

hope that one year i can be in sydney or taiwan for the NYE
syd for the fantastic fireworks, top2 in the world in terms of NYE celebration.
taiwan for the live NYE countdown shows.

____________

new year's resolution(s).... hmm...
the first one is very straight forward: to finish my PhD!!
then, the others are:
be more forgiving to certain ppl (of course, those who deserve la),
be kind to ppl who are kind to me,
live for myself, if ppl don't care then just be it, be more care-less
love myself and my parents more, life is shourt!


Happy 2011 to myself! :)
