2.17am. And I'm typing this blog post instead of sleeping or doing my stats tutorial.


Reflection for today... and reminders to myself:

1) Sometimes when you miss the moment/chance, it will never come back again. But if you really do value it, you have to put down your pride, considerations and everything else to chase after it. It will be worth it, when you think back.

2) There are kinds of people in this world. And the challenge is, how to handle relationships with all these different people. I guess you can't just learn one specific method and try to customise for everyone else, it doesn't work the way products do. (my business mind is too activated)
If you do not like a person, does that mean that you should not bother managing relationship?
But life, work, circumstances all put you in the situation where you have to work with these people. It is unavoidable and there is always things to be learned in this area. Remember, don't attribute one's work attitude to their character fully and retain a sole bad impression of them. That's the Devil Horn Perceptual Error (Putting OB into practice).

3) Don't attribute unhappy things to people who are involved but not the direct cause. You're being unfair to them. Constantly remember to appreciate the good parts.


Be grateful for the small good things in life and reduce the focus on the bad and difficult things.
Grateful for moving a step in a friendship.
Grateful for roommate's small little expression of concern.
Grateful that there are always this group of friends I can rely on and get support from.




你希望明天的自己
像一道彩虹 還是剛淋過雨
你想完成的 那些憧憬
比抱著回憶流淚有趣有意義

你希望明天的自己
有微笑眼睛 還是半夢半醒
一直在原地 那兒也不去
也就永遠看不到 新的好風景



学会放开那些痛苦、抱怨、委屈，
让明天的自己像一道彩虹，更好更美的彩虹。
加油。 :) 143. 486. 520.

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.
