Its 230am...haf an hour ago i just came back from work..wiu...they need extra ppl and so they call superman in to help...so wad to do...hahahaha...just jk...the weeks for some reason are getting slower and slower for me...or its just mayb im thinking towards the date too much...bcos before fall break the weeks flew by like nobody's business..but now like a bit slower..haha...o well...35 more days till my return!!...=)...im so looking forward to all the food and familiar places...and most of all...time with family and friends...anyway this pict was taken last week during the birthday dinner...the more low-key party than the saturday's one...we were playing a board game called the battle of the sexes...the one on my right is my roommate...on my left is the only singaporean in the university...the other two beside him are koreans...
this week im kinda reflecting on both the strength and good in the human spirit...something happened in our community this past week and it shocks all who are related dreadfully....we lost sleep...lost appetite...hav difficulty concentrating...all those bad stuffs when u r really upset about something...my whole weekend was definitely screwed bcos i was related too...cant put my mind into anything...after a while when i got better i thought this event might divide our community...and im pretty ashamed to actually hav this cross my mind at all...what surprises me is tht...this afternoon the ones who are related got together to reflect on this event...how we feel and what can we do to help...i was pleseantly surprised at the good people have...really...u noe sometimes when ppl kinda mess around...joke so much...and ur impression of them are just tht they r jokers....but this event led me to believe tht there is almost always a side tht ppl have when crisis occurs....i am blessed enough to have ppl who are so supportive...so helpful...so future-looking...they are just so nice ppl... they are like going all out to help...its just a really nice feeling when u noe u have ppl to fall back on when u suddenly face a huge crisis...friends who are able to accept u for who u r are just so valuable and hard-to-find....and in time of crisis friends will show their true sides....im just so blessed and thankful to have them in my life...
another issue that is kinda related is the word belief...it sometimes take crisis to help emphasize how important some basic values are....i just watched a part of my fav season 5 episode in smallville again...its titled "fragile"...well its about this girl who kinda lose her self-identity and not sure about herself and no confidence....the episode shows how clark let her believe in herself by telling her assuring statements that probably plays a crucial role in building her own self-belief...i feel tht this is probably one of the very crucial things tht parents...brothers...sisters...cousins...friends....gf bf should do when they see someone close to them feel unsure about themself...a simple "everything is going to be alright" or hug can go a very long way for a person who is in very difficult situation... i know tht statement of everything is going to be alright can sometimes be untrue bcos of how much trouble the person is in...but sometimes he is just so drowned in murky waters that he needs someone to pull him out of this state...bcos continuing to be welled up in our own troubles and crisis can be damaging to our spirits... this is probably the reason why its critical to find good friends...which again i must say...im thankful and blessed to have in my life....=)
