overwhelmed...

was re-reading some of my letters/diary/autograph bks while spring cleaning a few days back..kinda weird, cos sometimes i have to stop myself fr reading them cos they bring back so many memories and emotions that i am overwhelmed...

it's strange how we alwiz look back, and it seems so happy then...and somehow, u noe you wouldn't have changed anything, even though there were mistakes, setbacks and tears too...each memory is precious, be it happy or sad. each friend is precious too, be it old or new.

too many feelings trapped within me...it's hard to express all of them in hard, concrete words..

Choices

we face choices daily...

a choice to snooze our alarm instead of jumping out of bed..

a choice to rejoice in the new day God has made, or to feel lethargic and exhausted from yesterday's toil..

choosing what to eat amongst all the stalls in a food court..

choosing to wait a little while more for the bus dat u have been waiting for 20 min and risk being late, or just take a cab..

choosing to reply yes or no to ur fren's sms about a pending class gathering..

a career choice..

Love is a choice..choosing to love..choosing to do nice things and say nice things [when an action doesn't come naturally to you, it is a greater expression of love... =) ]

frens...

wed...what a day...

morning: end of chalet stay...packed up and went back home...

afternoon: saw how eliz shone and dazzled at e loreal mkting competition...i was sitting below e stage, and saw how she delivered her presentation in confidence, and it was realli a moment i will alwiz remember...and when they announced e winner, it was such an outburst of joy for everyone...and i realli felt so proud of her...dat is my fren on stage! she never fails to amaze me with her energy and drive...

evening: was at carrefour w melon...and gabriel came up to us...gabriel! think i haven't seen him for four years?! and it realli made me happy after e short talk w him..could realli tell dat though he is busy w work, he's one happy man doing e thing he is most passionate about---lighting! somehow, feel v touched whenever i hear of frens pursuing their interest, taking e unconventional path that many are afraid to embark on....jia you gabriel!

mon-wed

my little joys...my simple joys...

exhausted after a long day of interviews...feel drawn into a world of complexity and competitiveness...wondering to myself what i really want..where do i see myself in 3-5 years time?? how on earth do u answer such a question without sounding vague??!

got back home around 11+pm, and found a letter from one of e kids at the children's camp last dec...it was so sweet, cos' she attached some stickers, and this "Sharity" elephant bookmark, which says:

Every Day is Special
Every Day is made for fun
Every Day can be happy
With Smile for everyone.

Just take the time to say "hello"
A smile or two will do
A friendly word, or a helping hand
Can chase away the blues.

So come on
do your part today
And everyday this year
For bringing special joy
is a special gift
So let it begin right here

haven't received a letter through mail for a long time...and this one really touched me in a special way... =)

so i guess....i see myself as being happy every day for the next 3-5 years, and years beyond!
