reflection


It was until a friend reminded me to blog, that I actually remembered I have neglected my blog for way too long. Rest has finally came to an end, and it's time to pick up my game and continue my blogging journey.
Where am I in life as of this day you may ask? Peace. Peace would be the word right now. I feel so peaceful, so balanced, so "chill". My drama days are gone, they are now left in the past. I am happy with my life in all aspects, whether it's my job, my studies or my relationship. I am proud to say, I have never felt more balanced in any point of my life, except now.
Yes, there are those occasional "stress", but what is life without its ups and downs? I can't expect myself  to feel the same emotion every single day. Just like every other person, I still have days where I wake up without any happy chemicals in my brain. But at the end of the day, I am happy. I am happy because I am at peace.
In the past so many months, I have been enlighten in so many aspects. Time is precious, as it does not come back. Everybody has a hour-glass inside them, and it is just counting down, each sand/droplet that passes through that tiny gap, does not come back. It is not replaceable, it does not revert, it does not start over. How you choose to spend those time you have is up to you. But time & it's values, is too precious to waste. Yet, too many of us, are just wasting time away.
I have now learnt I have wasted too much time and emotions on people who are not worth it. But yet I do not regret one bit. It was a lesson for me to learn, to 戴眼識人

recap of past months.

Yes, it's been a long time since I posted a decent post here, many apologies, AGAIN.
As you can see, I have once again changed the layout of my blog. I hope you guys will like it.
Its been a little over a month since Henry & I got back from HK & I have been meaning to do a recap of our trip but never got time to, until now. So sit back & enjoy.

Our HK trip was great! It had been 13 years since Henry last went, and it had been 3 years for me. Even though was trip was only 2 weeks long, we managed to go to 3 different places. ( HK, Macau & Chimelong, China) So we were pleased with ourselves.

Like I said, it had been 13 years since Henry last went, a lot has changed and a lot of things were new to him. * Octopus cards* It was a whole new experience for the both of us, because it was actually our first overseas trip together!

We stayed in my aunties friend's Motel in To Kwa Wan, which was very convenient for us. It was close to my auntie's work, across the road there was a 7 eleven & my favourite dessert store, Hui Lau San. And then down the road, there was Maccas ! it was like heaven for Henry haha!

We flew on the 23rd October morning flight, and remembering that as soon as we landed. My 4th auntie picked us up from the airport and straight after we dropped off our luggage. We went to eat beef noodles! It was great! Then at night, we went to Temple Street & ate skewers ( BBQ style) with 5th Auntie & Uncle , and my cousin Christy & her now husband Wai. ( The main reason why we went to HK was for Christy's wedding). After that, we shopped around a bit and Henry saw 2 sets of Domo kun Figurines which he later went back and bought.

On the first week of Hong Kong, we went to Mong Kok Shopping, Disneyland, Dinner with Henry's family at TST, Avenue Of Stars, Ocean Park with my cousin Masao and NP360 :) We didn't really go crazy on shopping, but we did go crazy on eating! We were eating almost 5-6 meals a day! hahahaha! :) We even went to Buffet TWICE in two weeks!!

On the second week, we went to Macau, The peak & Wax Museum, Chimelong, Shenzhen for massage & more MK shopping! We also went to visit my Grandparent's grave, which was nice because I haven't gone there in a long time & it was special cos Henry came with me.

On sunday, 6th November, it was my cousin's wedding day. She had her ceremony at Eden Garden, Kowloon Tong. And reception dinner at this Chinese restaurant at  New Century Shopping Centre in MongKok. It was a beautiful day, gathered with family and friends, my cousin looked stunning. I almost cried the moment they made their vows. It was beautiful.

The dinner was even more interesting, it was the first time in so many years since the cousins all got together. And it was great cos we are all grown up now. We got together and reminisce the old times. My cousins ARE my older brothers and sisters, because I am an only child and I WAS the youngest in the family, we had a really close bond. They always looked after me & I have so much respect & love for them. It was just great being all together again & being with the family. I love my family so much, but it sometimes is a pity that we are all separated in different parts of the world. I actually cried at the end of the night, knowing that I will be flying back to Sydney the next morning & who knows when will be the next time I get to see them again. It was a really emotional moment for me. But I know deep down, that even though we may not be able to see each other so much like we used to when we were young. Our bond and our love for each other will never change.

Anyways, enough with the emotional talk. Here are some pictures from our Hong Kong Trip,

Time

There are so many thoughts running through my head right now. Its going to be one of those nights ..

I know, its been so long since I blogged, yet right now I really need to just joint my thoughts down in words. I am sorry if this is all too random, but I guess its just what happens in my wondering mind.

I am 22, I have not had much great achievements in my life, unlike some people I see around my age. I know my abilities, I know what I am capable of. I know I am not a stupid person, so why do I feel like I have failed? Its because I have made so many stupid choices during my younger years. I regret. Yes, I regret.

Even though I know its not too late for me to pick my game back up, I know compare to others around my age. I am delayed. Knowing this makes me feel crap. Why did I waste so much time on useless stuff? Why did I make such stupid choices? ..
I don't want to go down through that path again, where I give empty promises to myself & my family. I don't want to let my love ones who have so much faith in me down again. I want to let them know that I am not the stupid little girl anymore. I am capable of making my own wise decisions and be able to succeed in life.

A trail of thoughts ..

Have you ever looked around you and think, there's so many people walking down the streets everyday, yet the chances of seeing someone you know is less then minimal? .. And then look around your friends, family, the people around you. .. it is not "coincidental" that we are all together. It is by fate.

There are countless people in this world, yet we happen to develop some sort of relationship with the ones that are around us. Whether is work, friends, family or even neighbours. These are all brought by fate.

So please, cherish the ones that you have around you, be thankful that they are with you, being part of your life, because everyone of them had helped you shaped who you are today.
