Headache caused by ear ache is irritating.

It's your concerns and anguishes that are the cause. Look for the peace of soul, and then you'll be in a good shape like a flower early in the morning

This Week's Outlook	These astral influences will accentuate the contradictions inherent in your personality. If you begin to entertain gloomy ideas, if you no longer have the desire to be active, if you take no further interest in your entourage, then you must react very swiftly, for these are the first signs of a nervous breakdown. With this said, the malaises which you're suffering from at present are more psychic than physical, for your general state of health is not bad. It's your concerns and anguishes that are the cause. Look for the peace of soul, and then you'll be in a good shape like a flower early in the morning.
Outlook for 2009	Certain changes will take place in your life. They will all be positive, profitable and agreeable if you know how to appreciate and handle them. Don't let the past and useless details clog your existence. Try to get rid of all that impedes your march or hampers your spontaneity and joy. "Remember to forget" (Nietzsche). Your happiness is before you, not behind you!
Heavenly Influence (Looking to the Stars)	In spite of your apprehensions, notable improvements in many fields will be actual and, for certain natives, there will even be a positive change in the career. Certain solutions will come along unexpectedly. The year will be crucial as regards a sentimental encounter or a recovery of harmony with a beloved one. If you must take important decisions, seek advice from competent people.
Additional Outlook For Your Element (Water)	You'll feel powerfully motivated. You'll try to achieve all your projects and realize all your ambitions. What is important will be a good dose of patience. And, why not seek help from your friends?

Precious things when held on too tightly, will suffocate, will be crushed

Be brave georgin, learn to let go..

How true

Sometimes, you just have to be hard on yourself.

如果你不小心想起我

If there are seasons was great. The songs were nostalgic, the lyrics were beautiful and poetic. But I feel down now.

The show said love past, or love lost, can never feel the same when the love is recovered...

sometimes it's wrong to do the right thing
sometimes it's right to do the wrong thing?

this is so confusing. must they use such paradoxical statements just to catch your attention..

避风港

A few weeks back sunday times' life section featured something special. From Shin Na's blog, I quote
"I'm sad about the pain my illness and death have caused my friends and family. Losing people you care about and the thought of never, ever seeing them again, or hugging them again, or hearing them laugh again is heartbreaking. Trust me, I know. You are only losing ONE of me. I'm losing ALL of you. But here's something even more sad - what if we had never met, never gotten to know each other, never laughed together or cried together or learnt from each other? Sure, we'd have saved some heartache, but we'd have lost a great deal more than that."

And from another lady in the same article
"When we are healthy, many of us sleepwalk through life like the living dead. You can see us in the MRT, on the way to work. Unsmiling. With vacant stares. Just like zombies. From where I am now, that seems like such a waste."

It's about loving our own lives, cherishing the present and looking forward to our futures. It's about looking out for the people you care about, providing a 避风港 for each other.

CATCH and TWIST

wtf, i lost my stylus. aarrrggghhhhhh tamade.

don't know how I'm going to survive next week. Am not so excited about the diving trip anymore, didn't finish the manual or the vcd that i'm supposed to watch. Other things occupying my limited brain capacity now, sian just thinking about it, dreading it when the time comes, sigh. Actually, dreading it even before the time comes. I feel like sighing a lot. sbs. I shall disguise them as taking deep breaths.

My easy way out has been rejected, despite "impressive credentials". Now I need to figure out what I need to out the non-easy way out.

Quite immobilised by stiffened shoulders and back, and neck, and ass. Need to work on my front catch......catch phrase for db shall be CATCH and TWIST

it is the last few days, and i need to believe a miracle is possible.

There is only this many times i can check my gmail everyday before going nuts.  Just give it to me, then I can tell myself to leave without regrets.  

Grouchy & grumpy.  Quotes from Daniel Tammet's new book.

1. People who make better predictions are better learners.
2. You have no responsibility to live up to what other people think you ought to accomplish.  I have no responsibility to be like they expect me to me: it's their mistake, not my failing. -- Richard Feynman, Nobel Prize- wining physicist
3. There is no such thing as love, there are only the proofs of love. -- Michel Onfray, French philisopher
4. We cannot measure intelligence when we have not defined it, -- Walter Lippmann.
5. In the end, it is not the size of our brains that matters, but the depth of our spirits.
6. Remembering something from your past is not at all like pulling facts from your brain, but rather is a recollection aided by your level of interest, knowledge and emotion at the time of the event and the subsequent recollection.

Another list of quotes from http://blogs.ft.com/capitalismblog/

1. To biuld a society based on trust we have to start in school, if not earlier.  Children should learn that the noblest life is the one that produces the least misery and the most happiness in the world.
