Fresh from the factory, the brilliantly crafted cup was brought into the shop. The cup is always half full and nothing can ever cause it to become half empty, until one day when it fell to the ground and had a great crack. From that day onwards, no matter how it tried, it could never be half full again. Instead, it wobbled and fell a 2nd time, thinking that nothing can be worse already.
One day, an explorer decided to buy a gift for the pirate and came to this gift shop. He noticed the broken cup, thought that it has once looked beautiful, decided to buy it and try his best to mend it, giving it much tender loving care. In about a week, the cup was good as new again, once again its half full, but at times, still worry that it would fall off the shelf, and so it hope that the explorer will hold tightly onto it and never let it go easily.
I entrusst the cup into your hands. =]

The Departure
Things happen for a reason.
People leave for a purpose.
Time changes for a new season.
Never for a person.
Juliet is tendering her job as the GP teacher and leaving off next week. Same am I. ^5 to that. She is the kind and friendly teacher who talked to me when i just started in PJC. Then i received some snacks on my table at times which were treats from her. Many a times she would greet and smile to me when she sees me. Even today, she gave me a big piece of nougat, dimensions of 20cm x 3 cm x 2cm which was a gift from her friend who went to australia. She was still thanking me for the chocolate chip cookies and amazing it was to enjoy cookies from a guy. Well, its good to share~ Now that she is leaving, and although we are only colleagues for a while, still feel a bit bu se de ba.. always feel blessed to meet people who doesn't fail to make me feel happy and loved. Thanks to this lovely lady~ hee.. Wish her the best and the best.
Time passes and things change. The only thing that is constant in life is change. Can see myself in a few years time, staying with my dear dear, maybe still trying to win each other in monopoly, maybe still watching a movie together, enjoying a simple drink at our usual place, cooking up a meal lovingly, loving God wholeheartedly and also playing mahjong happily. I don't dare to think about how things are going to change, for the better or worse, but for now, i'm happy and contented.. =P
Till now, i have a problem with honesty and truthfulness in a relationship, kinda affected a bit by how the game is played. Simple and simplicity, thats the way of life ba. Why try to create trouble and land oneself into deceit and guilt? If one has known it better, Why still do it? Not losing my head and my mind, but just feel that being true and honest is the supposed right way, not to hide or runaway..
Departure is not the end,
It is the new beginning.
Different is each one's plans,
But never out of hands.
Cheers to life and ever after.

Blasted
We are all the same, given with a difference called uniqueness. But how can life be so different in pathways and decisions. Everyday we face mountains, some as small as deciding where to have dinner, while big one can be deciding what job to take. Different problems and circumstances happen to different people which i find it hard to believe, that although people are so close, but can be yet so far apart from one another.
Jh's mum passed away, was there at the funeral, was expecting him to be down and unsure of what to say also.. But just gave him a pat on his shoulder and wish him take care. Then he was smiling to me and was fine as usual. But underneath that cheerful and playful character, he must be feeling bad ba.. that he had to diguise himself to face us.. I feel for him, that if anything happen to my love ones, i will be very upset, dunno where can i draw my strength then.. Managed to see a few close frens from sec sch, were talking abt sch and work.. Same sec sch, and from now living different lifestyles.. wow..
Big love.. everyone has it.. just that how big is big and how much are u willing to show it.. I've been showered with love, that i feel so comfortable, by littles gestures and acts of kindness.. Mdm Goh gave me chocolates, Jeanette secretly put food on my table, Mrs Tong gives me egg tart, Mr Tan treats me drinks, Mr Chan gave me a lift, Miss Toh helped me with my work, Miss Tan gave me advice, more more more.. A small thing u do sprout a seed and mature into something great.. U give and u shall receive, u reap wad u sow.. Thanks~
Motives are unpredictable and deceits are horrible. We oftern listen and trust people words too much.. In one way or another, we trust the wrong person and thats it.. prepare for something bad to happen.. So before we really set our hearts to believe someone we must be wary and cautious, not to be critical but be alert.. Trust with your heart and brain, and not anywhere else.. Be wisee~
Don't think the way of teaching your own flesh is by beatings and scoldings. These ways are too extreme, maybe once or twice in a while is fine, but if this becomes the only way, where is communication? Kids now need attention, they don't really need someone else to be there to teach them how to study, in fact they are smart enough to handle and tackle them. Heard from Mr tan that normally ADHD will not be able to do well in studies and probably stand no chance to work up to JC level.. Kinda sad that this might come from the genes, that you are born like that and you have to accept it like that.. There must be a way to alter it right?
