Sem break motto!


Okay, maybe not too brave a thing.

Though it was fun to walk into Forever 21 after they announced "shop is closing in 10 minutes", and grab some absolute bargains, try them on and then walk to the counter and see the I-wanna-go-home face on the cashiers the other day (I wasn't the only or the last customer!), which the same night itself, a crazy thought had us head towards the SmartTag lane and hoped the Touch n Go machine works after seeing super long queues at the toll (it didn't work and we had to reverse, with a car behind us honking like mad).

Also explains people asking "you sure you're not pushing too far?" after a jog and badminton on Tuesday, continued by badminton, squash, gym, more squash, more gym on Wednesday.

Nope. I'm kinda having fun, with half of the time complaining I'm dead bored at home, but yeah, I'm having fun (and always looking forward the weekends when I get to see all those crazy people!)

2 months of sem break down. 2 more months to go. Yay!

Our turn

I don't know anything about mental illness in its most psychological or medical term.
But what I do know is that people can be given second chances to heal from any form of mistake from the past, as long as they repent in it.
Everyone deserves the best in life.
What happens next is how you grab hold onto your life.


All your life you've been waiting. Learning. Getting ready for that one day when the ball would be passed to your court, and it'd be up to you to make the game-changing difference. All your life you've told yourself, "soon". Not today, "soon". Not tomorrow, "soon".

To-morrow, to-morrow, and to-morrow. Life is far too short to be spent waiting. For that one event. For that one chance. The rest of your life begins today. It begins now. Now is the moment you've been preparing for. It's time to step out into the arena. Time to show them what you've got.

The world is watching. Ready or not – it's our turn now.

"You just want it just because you can't have it."

For the past three years, there were always obligations that stopped me from applying for a part-time job with BBW. Every year, I look up the calender, hoping their time will be adjustable to my schedule. This year was no different, and the good news this year, it's during sem break and I had no compulsory obligations. I was free for those 18 days. Or was I?

"Is working at BBW worth giving up 18 days of freedom? Earning thousands in 18 days, is that what you really want? Okay. So pretend that you've gotten the job and are working day one on this 9am-9pm job, what happens next? What happens tomorrow on what you think you want?"

I would ask myself, what am I doing here?

I wanted to work there so bad, I forgot why I wanted what I wanted.

The same happened to wanting to go for the Work and Travel USA programme for the past year.
What about wanting a boyfriend all those years, and so desperately wanted to get back together with the ex last year?

Turns out working at BBW isn't something I really want.
I just wanted to work there because I never had the opportunity to when I really wanted to be there three years ago.

So who wants to raid MIECC this year with me and maintain this customer status we so proudly own?
Books range as low as RM8 :p
