I look at myself and I realize how lucky I am to be here. How lucky I am to be able to study overseas and to be able to be learn in a totally different environment. I am thankful for that.
I have been looking for a part time job lately and I realized how hard it is to actually get a job. It is really, really hard to accept the fact that I applied to so many jobs and the replies were "I am sorry but this position has been filled". The replies came back one by one and it depresses me.
I applied to so many different kinds of jobs, as a retail assistant, as a barrista, as a pharmacist assistant etc. and the replies weren't good. *sigh* When I think of how hard my parents worked to get me all the way here, I feel guilty. Guilty for spending so much of their money. That's why I want to get a job, at least I can support my living expenses instead of depending 100% on my dear parents.
What other jobs can I apply for? I have 4 weeks left of my holidays. What can I do..?
明白赚钱难, 却没想过找份工作更难。。

"Ohana means family and family means nobody gets left behind"
Drew this a couple of days ago, out of boredom that is. The one on the left is the original one obviously :P
My cousins from the USA are in Malaysia right now and I can't be there :( I miss them so much! Can't help remembering the days in California, laughing and playing like kindergarten-ers. I hope they enjoyed their trip to Asia :)
They are having fun in Melaka :)
Hope to you girls soon!

Saw this in Facebook recently and I find it pretty meaningful.
Even though I grew up watching this movie, I never noticed this sentence before. Hmm.. Maybe I wasn't paying attention. Haha!
Everybody is different in their own way, my cousin always complain to me about why can't she buy new clothes, why can't she go overseas for a holiday, why can't she do this, why can't she do that, I got so fed up I nearly yelled at her. When I told different people lead different lives, she pulled a face and raised her voice saying "You don't get the point!!!" I nearly retorted "who's the one who can't fucking understand?!" But I just smiled and gave her a hug, Deep inside I understand that she leads a life I never thought I'd be in. I am grateful that I've been brought up with more freedom that I could have imagined. I've always complained about how strict my parents were and how I don't want to go home, I regretted all that. Because compared to my cousins, I lead a good life. In fact, I lead a very happy life :)
I must always remember this feeling.
Although I am not as rich, not as smart, not as pretty, not as kind or friendly as some others, I hope I will always remember, I am still one lucky girl :)

I spent a few days of my holidays watching this drama. I know, I know, it has been out for like AGES! But I never knew where to watch all these dramas until recently. Hehh.. At first, I thought it was some crappy drama because personally, I HATE drama/movie that involves exchanging bodies between the characters. Luckily I didn't stop watching though xD Because it turned out to be really good!
Some scenes were really pathetic, some really funny, some very meaningful :)
Synopsis:
The drama tells the story of Kim Joo Won (Hyun Bin), an arrogant and eccentric CEO who maintains the image of seeming perfection, and Gil Ra Im (Ha Ji Won), a poor and humble stuntwoman whose beauty and body are the object of envy amongst top actresses. Their accidental meeting, when Joo Won mistakes Ra Im for actress Park Chae Rin, marks the beginning of a tense, bickering relationship, through which Joo Won tries to hide a growing attraction to Ra Im that both confuses and disturbs him. To complicate matters further, a strange sequence of events results in them swapping bodies.
Not bad, at least it is not a typical swap bodies and learn to live the other's life and such. They actually swapped bodies three times. The last one being the most meaningful one :) and.. at least I didnt waste my three days watching it! :P What should I watch next? Hmm...
