I think mashimaro looks better than the blue bird. Since I don’t use twitter anyway.

Have you heard of bladeless fan that works? Yes, there’s one and it’s even more energy-efficient than the ones that have blades. It looks easy to clean too. It seems like it’s a new technology from www.dyson.com/fans/

This song by Jay Sean is so addictive. I didn’t know he’s a UK-born Indian. But the part when Lil Wayne sings, it’s so irritating. He looks sleazy in the music video.

Is there a faster way of studying like burning the notes and tutorials and ingest them? =x

Blog Updates!

It was time for a change of template. Coincidently, the pictures from the previous template that were hosted for the blog were removed by flickr due user inactivity. I kind of like the new one actually. Colours are neutral to bright. Serves to remind me to blog about happy things more often. Bigger fonts and wider spacing. Good for old people like me. Ha.

However with every change of blog templates, some things will be removed such as the tagboard and my friends’ links. It’s difficult to add back the links one by one. I’ll keep a backup of the links next time then. Ha.

In addition, I realised that I had tried to use proper English for my blog posts since Dec 2005. I recalled that back then whenever I feel like it, I’ll just write, without even having second thoughts about filtering the words I want to say through my mind. Not that I have gotten any better in my linguistic ability but I seem to have gotten used to the part about thinking-before-I-say now. I can’t end up writing stuff that I know will cause outrageous outcomes.

I used to blog about many happy events that happened to me but I seemed to have less of these up here recently. Hmm, I should try to remind myself to keep looking at the brighter side of life. :) Perhaps the best of life is yet to be?

I was also looking at the old photos that were taken when I was young… The one on the left was taken when I won an art competition ages ago.

I think I look cuter! (Thick-skinned) Haha. I realised that such hairstyle is back in trend too. No wonder they says fashion recycles its trend every 10 years. Maybe I should start marking my old clothes when I can start re-wearing them again.

Gee, but those were the times that were so carefree. I want to go back to relive those times again!

Sports day photo. I can remember the primary school teacher’s name. A nice teacher. Funny how sometimes I can remember things 10 years back when I have difficulty recalling events 2 days back. Haha. Except for the 2 tall girls in my class, back then I was about the same height with everyone else! Just that I stopped sooner than other people too. Haha.

Hope that the new friendships that were made stay on~ =)

Repaying Kindness with Kindness

How many times have you recalled paying someone’s kindness back with kindness? Although it’s said that when you do a kind thing, it needs no paying back but if your kindness is received by someone who has a conscience, he or she will feel grateful to you and eventually will repay you with kindness in other forms.

But there are times I just suck. I’ve looked through old emails, letters or even little things my friends wrote to me ages ago. Some of which I had totally forgotten its existence. Reading through them brings back bittersweet memories. Those may be all the childish moments that were spent together, all the naive things done together or all the tears shed together. Their sincere thoughts are all penned down on that little pieces of paper in a hope that it gets through to my heart that I should never forget them. Somehow I felt that I didn’t treat these people as well as how they treated me and I haven’t find the courage to bring them back to my life.

Many times I felt grateful that my friends came into my life. I’m thankful that they had left an impact on me and shared with me what I couldn’t learn from just books or from parents. They were the ones I look up to. However, I was wondering just how many of them thinks that way of me? I know I’m the quiet sort that will just blend into the corner. So insignificant. Truthfully, I may not want to know that answer. Some things are better left unspoken.

But as with every friendship built, there are bound to be some that hurts you deep into heart. Walls are then built, facades are then maintained. Unlike mathematics, there’s no right or wrong how you should handle interpersonal relationships. I hope to find the right formula to keep my dear friends close to my heart and the rotten ones out of the universe as soon as possible.

Getting you to see from my point of view is so difficult. You will always think from your interpretation that I didn’t care…
