Wrap Up: January '12

I don't usually like to do wrap ups, but this year, I shall try to do a monthly review. They serve 2 purposes: to remind me of how far I've come, what I've done and also hopefully inspires me to do better every month onwards. January of 2012 seemed like a blur of events rushing through one after the other albeit the fact that I'm still on my summer break! Right after ushering in the New Year, we ushered in the Chinese New Year. In between was all the non-finishing spring cleaning, shopping and CNY planning. I had this post entitled CNY doesn't...

CNY Laughs!

Chinese WisdomIn the Chinese language, the word "LAO" means old. It also has the connotation of "experienced" or "seasoned".An experienced or seasoned person can be an expert in manipulation, as shown in the following illustrations:Two things in life that are difficult to achieve:1. To plant your idea in someone's head2. To plant someone's money in your own pocket.Achieving any one of the above is difficult. But there are people, with the title of LAO, can achieve one or both:1. He who succeeds in planting his idea in someone's...

The Hitchhiker's Dilemma

Back when I was in high school, I used to stay back for many extra-curricular activities. This resulted in me missing my regular transport and I either had to take a bus+walk, or simply walk all the way. I've definitely tried both, and during the walking occasions, I would often time think to myself: Wouldn't it be nice if every car had a sign saying where they were going so I could hitch a ride? Car-pooling is very possible as many people go the...

Man in the Mirror

I've always loved this song so so much! It speaks so much truth that it could easily be a religious song. The song encourages us to make a change. And it starts within us, not without. Glee Season 3 Episode 8 brought Glee back into my list of shows to follow and this song just killed it! Not to mention also, the way the episode maneuvers the many obstacles, how Finn chose to be the better man and brought everyone together, how Quinn realises she's having the best time in her life, how Mike's Father decides to support his son. Everything speaks...

This is not a new year's resolution!

2012 has just begun. I'm never really a fan of new year's resolutions but for some reason, being pressured among others, I've always made resolutions that were never revisited nor kept. God knows what happened to them! Anyhow, it hasn't been a very good start at all this year. There are a couple of things that I'm just not happy about, and the good/bad part is, it's about myself. The good part is, I can change that. The bad part is, it's not going to be easy. Anyhow, instead of making new year resolutions, I'm going to make solutions for these...

May It Be

The only reason I named this picture so is because Enya's song is playing right now, and it has been for the past  few days. And this pictures sorts of bring out that feeling of mystery. Of not not knowing what's beyond the horizon. It's a bit misty/cloudy/sandy, but definitely blurry and yet we harbour hopes of a better future by taking one step at a ti...

Review: The Darkest Hour

Not recommended t watch. First of all, it's only an hour and a half and the ending is not satisfactory. Some parts of the plot is just absurd and I don't find it stimulating enough. Rating : 2...
