Uhh. long time since i posted. about 1 week ago?
and im thinking if there's lit circle 2moro.
is it?
i dunno. D:
im lost. and crazy. :X
have yet to even start on my la speech.
i seriously dun feel like even doing it.
grrs.

just read junwei's post.
and yeah, i do think that what's the point of living at times.
but well, it doesnt really affect me.
so dun get freaked out by me. ;D
and i won't be silly enough to commit suicide.
i won't.
i'm still happily living my days, doing things im suppose to do.
just that life sometimes gets quite boring like this.
hen mei you le qu.
uhh. that kinda drives me to spending my time stoning and thinking. ._.
and it's not really ren sheng da dao li or whatever.
it's just my thoughts and what i come to eventually after all the thinking.
and to me,
i dun wanna live this life not even thinking about anything.
it's really nice to not think and live life happily everyday, being so innocent.
but eventually, there would be a point of time when everybody makes their own decisions,
and making your own decisions and stuff requires you to think.
this blog is just an emo silent side of me.
i'm totally different in real life.
and i promised myself that i won't let anybody see me committing suicide one day,
because i dun see the point of living anymore.
the most,
you would just see me doing nothing. X:
no matter what,
life still goes on right?
and being able to live is a privilege.
some people wanted to live, but because of unfortunate events,
this privilege is being taken away from them.
so why throw away your own privilege when you can enjoy having it?
as long as you enjoy your life,
you know that you're part of the force that drives this world going on,
why would you think of killing yourself?
right, i may say that committing suicide is silly.
but maybe junwei is right,
maybe one day i would end up on the rooftop of some random building,
thinking of ending my life.
but at that moment,
i will make myself remember this,
my life ends there,
but my problems don't.
these problems would become problems of others,
and they would have a need to solve it for me.

and talking about a strong mindset,
it's not what you want that you can have.
it comes naturally in a sense.
that you look at things openly,
and you can find the bright side of things.
and you work towards it.
as supported from evidence of dunno how many suicides in this world,
many people are unable to think "on the bright side"
they choose to run away, instead of facing problems and hardship.
why?
the reason is simple,
because they think that it's too hard.
and then you approach the same problem,
but you say, "it's easy".
because everybody has different perceptions of what is hard and what is easy.
it depends on that one person's character, the environment he grew up in, and many other factors.
that is what makes up one unique individual.
so when others cannot reach your expectations, don't blame them.
you might think that these expectations is low,
but to them,
it might just be too high, and they just can't do it,
even if they try their best.
and what people would usually say is, "try harder".
but trying harder needs time.
time is like a important factor of everything in this world.
some people think that they don't have the time to do things,
but some people think they just have too much time.
you can't wish that you would have unlimited time to do things in this world,
because it's is actually impossible.
even if you do finish something,
and because of the unlimited time,
you would just be stuck there forever.
and another thing is,
it's not within our control to have unlimited time.
oops. (out of point sia.)
back to having a strong mindset,
without people giving you their opinions through counseling,
you would not even know how to change your own thinkings,
so as to change to be mentally stronger.
so, counseling do help at times.
but after all,
it all goes back to that person's decision of whether he wants to be mentally stronger or what.

okay. i sound like im totally contradicting junwei.
nvm, i shall attempt to do my la speech now.
till then.

im starting to think again why and what do we work so hard for?
for what reason do we push ourselves so hard for?
just for that sense of achievement?
for pride?
or what?

i have yet to find that answer till now.

it's just like we are putting in a 101% of effort,
but it's like we dont get anything in the end.
and when things get too hard,
who wouldn't think of giving up..?



and i wonder what's the point of having 以身作则 this phrase in chinese?
becos it doesn't seem to exist much in this world.



and why is "sorry" this word created in this world?
cos it's kinda "misused" by people all around.



and don't be surprised if you see me daoing/not smiling to you 2moro,
cos i dun know what people wan me to do.

superr longg never update lee.
D: falling sick is bad bad bad.
and not going to school is even more bad bad bad. D:
im very worried about chem now.
acids. >(
i dunno anything?!
and history too. >(
even with notes, nothing will go into my brain
unless somebody teach me about it and im listening. D:
omg lah.
why did i have to miss sch?! >(
got back history paper today.
im actually very disappointed.
it's not as if my marks were like very bad,
it's just that everybody did so well with like almost 30 ppl got As?
i dunno.
it's just like everyone did so well,
and yet i didn't.
and i just dun understand why i just dunno how to link can.
LIKE YEAH.
if i just change a bit of the last sentence for the last line of every paragraph and link to the ques,
i could have jolly well gotten 2 more marks or even 3, which would be like 10% more.
oh wells, miss chua is right anws, no point crying over spilled milk.
so, das ist mir egal. :D
i'll pick up myself from where i fall. ^^

hmm. had cip ytd.
it kinda like sent me thinking over a lot of stuff in this world again.
it's not really like im freaked out or what.
i just.. suddenly had a lot of thoughts about a lot of stuff.
and to think that this world is complicated,
becos of us struggling everyday with studies, exams, etc.
it's like so hard.
but compared to others, this is actually nothing.
and we don't really know what they really wanted.
they can't express themselves well.
compared to other cips, this one is a really different experience.
i don't deny that i was traumatised by some things after the cip,
but it's more of a reflecting state.
still remembered somebody from 204 did her chi sia on guan huai
and when she fen xiang with us her sia, somebody asked a question like "why do people guan huai each other?"
and i think the answer is just like, because no man is independent.
like no man is like an island, able to stand on its own.
we depend on each other, and the reason why there is "love" in this world is that all of us have feelings, feeling of being happy, sad, angry, etc. but most importantly, the feeling of being loved. It's such a mystical feeling, making you know that you're important to someone, someone needs you, and you need them too, in this world, you have a stand, somebody just cares about you. and this love makes everyone cares for each other.
and that's why we have such things like cip.
cip is just like letting students serve the community,
what real care and love is without hoping anything in return, you do things for others and care for them.
we students do cip mainly because we're told to do so,
because we have a need to do so.
and i know myself that despite typing all these things out here now,
i don't think you would see me as an volunteer helping out in charitable organisations etc.
on this world, there is nothing fair, everything can be just ironic.
not that i want to criticise teachers, but actually not only teachers,
when we teach other people stuff, like moral values etc,
the thing is, do we even do it in the first place?
if we don't, how do you expect people to listen to you and do it too?
it's just too hard.
and whether we want to care for others,
we want to love others,
we want to help others,
it's just our own choice, our own decision.
if you dare to take the first step,
why won't you have the courage to walk the whole journey?
after all, you have already started on the journey.
so instead of turning back and walking away, why don't you just try and who knows, you might just finish the whole journey, exceeding your own expectations.

maybe we humans just think too much.
sometimes, it might be much better if we can just stay innocent,
and live a simple life.
it did often be happy.
a carefree life.
saying it is easy, but it's never easy to achieve it.
because this world is just too complicated,
it just consist of too many problems and troubles,
too many dissatisfaction, too many unpleasant experiences, too many sadness.
it's filled with too many of these things,
that it's almost impossible to stay happy.
and maybe sometimes, thinking too much is bad for my own good.

sometimes, i just don't understand why people can be so insensitive to the feelings of other people and such.
i know it's not really their fault,
if we just try to laugh it out,
maybe everything would be alright,
but after all, it would hurt and leave a mark.
and when this mark gets too deep,
that person would be hurt severely,
and you don't know what might just happen.
it's like "ji shao cheng duo".

if everyone could just think more about others,
things might just get better.
but it's not tt easy,
i sometimes lose control of myself too.
when somethings get out of hand,
it's just too hard to control it again.

okay, enough dwelling.
haiz.
there's ict 2moro!!
omg.
i'm like haven't done anything.
and assignment 2 is due by 2moro!
OMG CAN. D:

it's up to us to decide.

THAT LADYY
` Luping
` Amethyst (Ame)
` 22

` 6H'06 FTPPS
` 104'07 204'08 302'09 402'10 NYGH
` 11S6A HCJC
` NTU

`ELF, Primadonna, F迷, JM and much more

used to be:
` Audi-addict; IcyWitchy/IcyIceWitchy/
---xAMETHYST / Amethystf
` FAM: TheRetainners; -PlayWithMe- ; xLOVEDOPESSx;


Luping is a lost child that has been seeking for her career direction since the first time someone asked her "What would you like to be when you grow up?", when she was still too tiny to reach the basin in her house. Despite reading books like What Should I Do with My Life: The True Story of People Who Answered the Ultimate Question by Po Bronson, she had been searching like a headless housefly (literally translated from 无头苍蝇) past graduation when she actually probably needed to find a job. Eventually, she found a job and a... direction.

For those who know Luping personally, she loves plushies/soft toys and is prepared to go on war with anyone who gets their hands on her babies. Her babies are personified with voices of hers and her Mummy's, and both of them enjoy framing the babies for things they obviously cannot do. When her Mummy suggested that if one day, the babies actually speak up, “那应该会吓死” (it would probably frighten one to death), she responded that she will instead “开心死” (be happy till death) if xiaofenhong (our cute, hot pink, flat bunny) replies her. That is the extent of her loneliness love for her babies.

And for those who know Luping as Amethyst, she is a rather huge fangirl of the Korean boy band, Super Junior. So much that she learnt (and is still learning - 반가워요!) Korean in hope of understanding what they say without subtitles and avoiding the losses in translation. She has been a fanfic writer for two years and counting, which sparked off her interest in writing and thus, this blog to practise writing so that one day, she might have the courage to apply for a (content) writer position or send in a manuscript to a publisher.
