He Had Such Quiet Eyes

He had such quiet eyes

She did not realise

They were two pools of lies

Layered with thinnest ice

To her, those quiet eyes

Were breathing desolate sighs

Imploring her to be nice

And to render him paradise

If only she'd been wise

And had listened to the advice

Never to compromise

With pleasure-seeking guys

She'd be free from 'the hows and whys'

Now here's a bit of advice

Be sure that nice is really nice

Then you'll never be losing at dice

Though you lose your heart once or twice

by Bibsy Soenharjo

What do you do?

What do you do when you have so much to say but no idea of where to start or HOW to say those things? Or when you don't have the slightest clue about how to even put those things together in a sentence? When you have all these different thoughts and opinions and ideas in your head that you don't know where to begin with them? What do you do? How do you sort them out so that you sleep better at night and think less in the day?

What will be, will be?

Doing things for people, giving someone your best effort and expecting nothing in return can be really hard to do sometimes. Being nice to someone and not being treated nicely back can be difficult to endure. Seeing good things happen for your friends and not for you when you were in the exact situation as they were can be pretty tough and painful. Being there for friends and thinking that they'd do the same for you only to find out that they wouldn't is quite awful too. But I guess it's just part of life, huh? Que sera sera?

But they forgot to say..

The process of applying to Uni is incredibly painful and stressful. People never tell you that it is. And I think everyone simply assumes that the road to Uni is a breeze. Well kids, I'm here to tell you that it is so not. Unless you're a hundred percent sure about what course you're headed for and where you want to go to, then you're most probably going to face severe headaches and sleep loss which might cause you to have a few blunders here and there (eg. messing up cheques ala yours truly). Anyway, I guess things get better once you seal the big brown envelopes and mail them off to their respective offices. Breathing gets easier from then on. All you have to do then is to wait..to wait for replies, offers, calls, the whole shebang. Simpler, less stressing, more hoping. Here's to all other uni-hopefuls out there who have somehow stumbled across this very stagnant page of words. Good luck and all the best to us!

It's been a long time coming

Only about a month left till we say goodbye to another amazing year. It's crazy how fast time flies sometimes. Where did 2011 go?!? This year really was amazing...for me, at least. So many things and people to be thankful for. But of course, the year wasn't always a smooth sail. I learned a lot in the span of 11 months. A lot more than I expected I would...God is an awesome teacher, by the way. Just in case people didn't know that. Best lesson I learned this year: faith in God & constant prayer works wonders.

A few highlights of my year thus far...

AUP Gala '11

So much fun when the whole gang is around :)

Filming with awesome people for Andrew's assignment.

Quite an experience, I must say.

Outcome of it all:

Family photoshoot & sister's graduation!

SO good to have the whole family in one place!

Family trip to Hong Kong.

We spent a lot of time looking at the city from high places. Lol.

NEW DOG!!!

Lucky, our German Shepherd =) Now about 7 months old.

Symphony of Hearts II.

Got to meet local stars..sort of. They were cool people. Emcee, William Lee is really funny, btw. He's the one on the far left of the picture.

Got to hang out (kind of) with Juwita Suwito!

And....Gurmit Singh!!!!!!

Totally fangirl-ed while waiting to pick him up at the airport.

Probably the best thing that's happened to me this year...

being a crew member on the Logos Hope!
An experience I am thoroughly thankful to God for and something I will never forget.

Met incredible people who are amazing friends.
I think this deserves a post of it's own. I will blog more about this soon.

Nick's birthday at Straits Quay.

Some of my favourite people in the world =)

Cousin's wedding reception at Lone Pine Hotel.

Love this family shot and I love weddings.

The set up for the wedding was really pretty! (:

And of course, being able to holiday in Italy! This, of course needs a post of its own. I'll get to it soon! Along with my Logos Hope Experience :) It feels good to be back on the blog-scene.

MOVING HOUSE

Moving blog actually.

I'm moving to Tumblr. Yes, it got the best of me.

And also cause my updates are getting shorter and shorter here in blogger, it's kinda a waste of space in my opinion. And Tumblr has this really nice way of making all posts look so sinfully short, sweet and tempting. Don't know if that made sense but oh well!

Maybe if I intend on long posts, I'll blog here.

I'm not closing down this blog though. It holds far too many memories/pictures (I may or may not have lost already given the number of times my computer crashed)/entries/ramblings and whatnots that I've accumulated over the years.

I've been blogging since November of 2004. I chronicled almost 7 years of my entire teenage life in this blog! Granted, I changed my blog link a couple of times, I was never able to close it down completely. I mean, dude....start blogging when you're 12, then try tearing it all down when you're 19 (okay fine, 18++). If you manage to bring yourself to doing that, I give you a standing ovation for your bravery.

Bittersweet sort-of-kind-of farewell to this blog, huh. Nawh, this blog hasn't seen the last of me. I'm sure I'll be back soon with an abnormally long update about something in the near future.

I love my blog!

Sigh...as for now, find me @ www.mytreasureyourtrash.tumblr.com

It's still under "construction" there but do drop by every now and then for updates or random babbles from yours truly :)

I actually wonder who still reads this blog. It's wilting! :s

Peace out.

Question mark

Uh...I think I'm lost.

Happy New Year!

2011

May God bring more blessings to you and your family this year and may it be one filled with happiness, love, sugar, spice and everything nice =)

btw, I am immensely tempted to move to Tumblr but the fear of not updating that account as well has me stuck. Oh well!
