We feel lonely, sometimes to the point of tears, but we don’t let those tears come because we are not supposed to cry. Or how we feel a surge of love for a partner but we don’t say anything because we’re frozen with the fear of what those words might do to the relationship.
-Mitch Albom
I have not written anything on topics i enjoy in a long time. One thing i love about bus journey is that it gives me time to think about a lot of things. In addition, upon watching one of the episode of Princess Hours, it made me think about my dreams. In that episode their class tutor instructed them to write an essay about their dreams..
I remember when i was young, I'd watch the 'shuang tian zi zhun', I forgot their english title. And i'd be admiring the palace like house they stay in. I still remember that time i was still in primary I'd tell my best friend Rina that next time when we grow up, we'll buy a bungalow and one room will be for all our pretty clothes, one room for computer yada yada.
When i progress to my secondary school stage, i started getting infatuated with all those celebrities and i dreamed about marrying them hurhur. Around that time, i also thought about travelling around the world doing missionary work like those doctors without borders.
In my JC days, i dont think i have a clear dream.
Now, I am confused too. Are we mortals entitled to have dreams? Or are we destined to slog in the rat race?
looking for my dream. what is yours?
I haven't been blogging for some time. Life has been pretty busy yet mundane. School day in day out, presentations and projects. I'm glad that my accounting project is coming to a close soon but i have got to start on yet another new project, about economics. I used to like economics when i was good at it. But now after skipping all the lectures. I felt that i'm in a whirlpool of equations that i simply could not make out. Well its the final countdown to the exams. Less than one month to liberation!
Something interesting occured in school. i signed up for some module which involves all those stocks and investment which will take place in December. It's like special semester all over again. I'm looking forward to that course.
Kristine drove and sent me to BoonLay MRT today. Her driving is not bad. She can talk while she drive. I hate to talk or even listen to music when i drive.
I saw an article in LIFE section of the Straits Times today. There is this column on things to do this weekend or something and a blog was recommended. the url is http://i-speak.blogdrive.com It is by a girl from my JC. I read about the issues she brought up and i felt that they were all very insightful. I feel so proud of my alma mater =) I miss every Monday morning's chapel.
Another significant thing i did this week was to watch the Princess Hours. I think that show was awesome. Just like how i watched Full House, i neglected my studies and watched the serial late into the night. I told Kristine i like the crown prince Lee Shin although all the rest of my friends like Yul =P I think Kristine is sick of me talking abt Goong all day long.
