Wait and See


If you find a good wife, you'll be happy; if you get a bad one, you'll become a philosopher
-Socrates

HAHA. As much as this quote is ridden with lots of meaning, my first reaction was "Is he joking?!". 
Haha hmmm, actually it kinda imply of men's needs isn it. Appreciation of life perhaps? Self-actualisation needs- one need for another. 
But superficially, in modern context, it seems like becoming a philosopher was to explain for the predicament of having a 'bad' wife, hurhur.


It's DECEMBER! Oh boy, time passes freakin fast. Feeling kinda reluctant to look back at every nook and cranny of the past 2 years in JC to feel and emote about it. Let me savour in this nothingness  for the moment. 

Nothingness:

PROM is actually in 4 hours time and i'm not a least bit excited, i dont know why. Guess it'd be great to have just one last goodbye to some friends and acquaintances huh.   
TEMPORAL APATHY - just heck care about somethings and worry less about issues around .
LACK OF GOALS - needless to say.


Stan chart marathon's this Sunday and i've not trained enough at all. Die.  
In the meanwhile, i just wanna paddle more and pedal more.

My 30-50 km/h Getaway



SCM 2008. Nowhere as fit now.


PS. Happy Birthday matin!

Redefine

Bidded people online goodnight and washed up, only having to come back to blog before going to bed. I'd spend the same time rolling over the mattress thinking of these anw. 

Day in day out, less than 10 hours at home.
Such is my life after As.

Hah wow in retrospect, i didn really saw this coming at all. Frankly, i wasn really looking forward to post-As, it isn freedom, it's another phase of life
Surely studying could get boring, but taking a look around, i guess im lucky not to be suffering from bouts of boredom huh. Still passing times with great meaning.
Well, from how i've spent the holidays lately, i realised that if i were to look back at this period in the future, it isn't gonna be that fantastic after all.
BUT despite the clutter, guess i've still got no qualms about what i'm doing. 

Canoeing-wise, i guess my job's only done after seeing off this batch of juniors. It's too selfish to learn everything and let it all dissolve isn it? After all, no one builds things up only to see them coming down. The only way is up!


Heck my mantra of the 3 P's: priority, purpose, practise. 
It's time to kick back, seek some solace, contemplate, and rethink about directions.


Live it up or let it pass

Mercy

Oh. My. Gosh.

The world's pretty screwed up now. One day we have chaos in Thailand sprawling over the headlines, the next day we have bombs in Mumbai.

One section today mentioned protests in Chiangmai and in that very moment my heart kinda skipped a beat. THE OCIP TEAM IS STILL IN CHIANGMAI!
Their in the hands of Mr Liang and i think Ms Tabitha Liu? OH MAN. I pretty much hope they could get things in order. 
Those parents must be worried to the core. Hmmm, dont know how but i think i should try calling in to help.
We'll keep them in blessings and prayers.

Hmmmf.
Just a while ago, I kinda thought that sometimes, whatever happens in the news or whatever happens elsewhere in the world doesn really matter as much as those things or people right around me
While it may be pretty true to some extent, i guess the above made me realise that today sometimes we're just too interconnected to be nonchalant. 

Hope all turns well...
