Life's Lessons

just some random thoughts that i have. hope they'll prove as inspriration. or at least, of some help

one shall not wallow in self pity/the past.

take care of yourselves. go for a jog every once in awhile to let all your emotions out. if helps alot. :D

of course, don't overwork yourself either. thats very detrimental to your body.

if you're about to lose yourself, there's always outrageous hairstyles to try. or for the less adventurous, just go to the bar with someone who can take you home... and drink all you can. as long as there's no drugs involved everything's fine. =P

stay focused. what are you in school for? place your goal in front of you. hee.

last but not least. when in doubt, ask. talk about it. let it out. and... if there's no one there, bitch about it in a journal. and SMILE. =)

i love you guys. wahaha!

gonna sleep now. BEP is like crap. lol ciao.

gives you hell! haha.

i'm liking gives you hell by The All American Rejects at the moment. they're a cool band! haha. so heres the lyrics:

I wake up every evening
With a big smile on my face
And it never feels out of place
And you're still probably working
At a nine to five pace
I wonder how bad that tastes

When you see my face
Hope it gives you hell
Hope it gives you hell
When you walk my way
Hope it gives you hell
Hope it gives you hell

Now where's your picket fence love
And where's that shiny car
And did it ever get you far
You never seemed so tense love
I've never seen you fall so hard
Do you know where you are

And truth be told I miss you
And truth be told I'm lying

When you see my face
Hope it gives you hell
Hope it gives you hell
When you walk my way
Hope it gives you hell
Hope it gives you hell
If you find a man that's worth a damn and treats you well
Then he's a fool you're just as well
Hope it gives you hell
Hope it gives you hell

Tomorrow you'll be thinking to yourself
Where'd it all go wrong?
But the list goes on and on

And truth be told I miss you
And truth be told I'm lying

When you see my face
Hope it gives you hell
Hope it gives you hell
When you walk my way
Hope it gives you hell
Hope it gives you hell
When you find a man that's worth a damn and treats you well
Then he's a fool, you're just as well
Hope it gives you hell

Now you'll never see
What you've done to me
You can take back your memories
They're no good to me
And here's all your lies
You can't look me in the eyes
With the sad, sad look
That you wear so well

When you see my face
Hope it gives you hell
Hope it gives you hell
When you walk my way
Hope it gives you hell
Hope it gives you hell
When you find a man that's worth a damn and treats you well
Then he's a fool you're just as well
Hope it gives you hell

When you see my face
Hope it gives you hell
Hope it gives you hell
When you walk my way
Hope it gives you hell
Hope it gives you hell
When you hear this song and you sing along but you never tell
Then you're the fool, I'm just as well
Hope it gives you hell

When you hear this song
I hope that it will give you hell

You can sing along
I hope that it puts you through hell

cause it may be too late.

got something to share with you guys.

at T1 on Friday...

"hello sister"

"haah...? oh yes?"

"sister can you tell me where is the check in. is it this way?" *points to the viewing gallery.

"errr. nope. its downstairs."

"but sister i dunno where to go. can you show me...?"

"uh. ok. can i see your boarding pass?"

"BANGALORE airlines"

[lol no wonder he keeps calling me sister]

after showing him to the info counter [because i dunno where to check in for bangalore airlines]

"THANK YOU AH SISTER" lol.

from this incident i've learnt something and learnt to appreciate something else.

LEARNT: bangladesh workers don't come by ship to SG (no offence dudes). anyway its really faster by plane. lol

APPRICIATED: don't forget your fellow men who built our beloved HDB flats k. honestly. they put a great deal of hard work into it to earn some peanuts (although currency-wise, its not bad for them).

ok. down to the serious stuff.

Scenario 1: your job description/contract states that you should do A, B and C for work only. however, if your manager/supervisor asks you to do D instead (to fill someone in cause theres a lack of staff of something). assuming no difference in pay and safety at work.

DO you obligingly follow what your "boss" says and just "guai guai" do it? [pardon the Singlish, it seems appropriate here]

OR DO you just not do it? ["its not in my job description]

its really a dilemma here. people! if you're too shy to post your comments on my blog, you can always send me an email at lhfcheryl@gmail.com. i really need your opinion on this.

P PS

maybe i should become a journalist. i love writing about issues. and i love routine. wahaha.

21 GUNS~

the greenday song 21 guns is totally rockin'. xD go hear it ya.

just took a quiz on fb. they say i'm 70% happy with my life. i think it was inaccurate. lol!

it has been a bliss in the friendship section though.

what does happiness mean to you? must it be consistent in your life (happily ever after)? or a one-off feeling (fling with your true love/ very rare best-friends moment/gathering) is good enough to keep you going?

then, is sadness and grief caused by failure? or by misfortune? i want the answers to these questions.

of course there's always meritocracy. but who does the judging of meritocracy for you? must it be based on qualifications? or do you just go by feeling? or both???

IT REALLY DEPENDS. usually you'd need to find out the nature of the task first. or the requirements for the qualifications... yada yada. lol.

anyways. anyone heard the national day rally speech? i was at my part time job and they don't have a tv there. so too bad. lol gotta follow it on the news or channelnewsasia or something.

thats all for today.

by the way readers, i need to know about places

so why d'you have to go. T.T

lifes strange. love's strange too (at times i think that i might become a divorcee in the future. i'll probably be a little too much of a hassle to my future spouse LOL). and sometimes you may feel extremely high yet low.

friends are one of the best kind of people around but sometimes the feelings aren't mutual. they're too busy to listen to your crap or just oo lazy to. who should you turn to? your family? probably, if you have a good family background.

sometimes, even if you're feeling down yourself. helping people will brighten their day dramatically.

sometimes when you help others, you'll feel good too. =D

and if you're already feeling happy, share the joy.

even if with strangers (of course i'm talking about the non-dangerous kind. use your intuition since God has given you some lol).

SPREAD THE LOVE PEOPLE ;) (now i sound like some powerpuff girl. wahaha)

oh ya. last but not least please take care of your health ok? the flu in SG is spreading like wildfire.

lol i sound like a spoiled brat.

Self-confidence.

does everyone out there have confidence? can confidence be nurtured? or is it a natural trait?

physical appearance does affect a persons confidence. a slim person may think that he/she is fat when he/she is really is of a good weight at that height. people will also worry about their arm/tummy/butt/thigh size. which really is... a very bad indulgence.

welcome to "lacking confidence" anonymous. my name is cheryl, i have low confidence in many many things, including physical appearance. i (think i have) made someone i love very much leave me because of this low self confidence (or at least, its one of the reasons). it has also caused much fear in me during the relationship: a fear of losing him. and i really did cause of this self-dedemoralisation and some possessiveness. and my friends get annoyed when i say i'm too short and fat.

sometimes, it gets so bad that it affects my school and my work. breaking down in front of pple is really not cool. =/

therefore, on this blog, on this day, i pledge to override all negative feelings of myself and start beliving in myself. that i can do things well and in the right way if i just trust myself. because if i do not trust myself, why should other people put their trust in me? when i look into the mirror, insead of thinking "oh man, i look like crap", i will think "yeah! looking good girl!" and motivate myself.

LOL there. end of pledge. conclusion: it can be nurtured! =D love you readers. love yourselves too ok? just not too much. =X

PS: its time to work on the exams. ZzZz
PPS: leave your "lacking confidence"anonymous on my comments k? its alright not to put your real name. and i'm not an IT whiz so i won't bother to check your IP add and find out who you really are. just share your feelings here. its alright =)

hello everyone.

how's life? have you cut down on the beef yet? =D

partying in life is important. because if you don't, you don't realise what you've been missing out on! haha.

even if you were mentally battered. or tired of life. just try it at least once.

of course try to manage your drinking level and not get too drunk as well. lol unless you have someone to send you home! =P

my second topic would be about school. before you know it, you'll graduate(drop out if you're a bum) and you'll be kicked into the vicious working world.

whats in there for you? definitely politics, no matter where you go, as long as there's more than one person in the room.

as you get higher in rank/status, you'd probably have more power and would face less politics than the juniors. they get the crap.

so no matter how simple a job you want to have in the future, how about trying a hand at promotion? its a great motivating factor.

topic three: memories are delicate things. some you can't wait to rid off your mind, and some that you want to hold onto forever. why are humans like that? sometimes i wished i had some concussion and permanent memory lost on certain painful things. =/ do you?

food to recommend: Paste de Waraku!
