And now for tax and leadership.

sometimes i can't help but to feel that every assignment completed is like a baby being delivered. the stress, the tension, the expectations and disappointments, the awkward this-is-not-how-we-usually-talk moments, the pressure and encouragement, everything all put into one... until the very moment you put that full stop to end the conclusion, it just feels damn good.

in one of our random conversations my mom actually asked, "who do you like working with most for assignments?" heh is there even an answer to it? there are assignment buddies who make me feel so secured, like i know with him/her nothing will ever go wrong, there are also the ones who amaze me with the way he/she analyses and gives opinions, the ones who are organised and just perfectly organised, the ones who can google better than google itself, the ones who are forever keeping everyone calm... but they're all good. sometimes too good that i know i've not done my part well enough. and i truly believe that apologies are nothing if they don't come with actions. so, yeah.

trust is such an amazing thing. it's like a silent bridge that completes whatever needs to be understood between two different souls...

*whoa never knew blog posts can be justified too. post-assignment-syndrome much!

Be grateful.

Instead of always hoping for more, thinking that you're disadvantaged, you'll find yourself a lot happier if you're willing to take the time to appreciate and be grateful with what you already have. Today while waiting for my mom after the audit presentation i saw this girl standing by the other pillar, and she was on crutches. not sure why but it didn't look like any leg injury, so i'm guessing it's something she has to live with :( when her car was here, she slowly made her way towards it, down the step and into the car after the driver pushed the door open for her. sigh. i wonder to myself how she would feel. how to not feel sad when her friends can all run and hop around; how to cope with the weird stares she might get; how to not feel bad for troubling people who care for her; how to still stay strong and not give up on her dreams. and then i figured, maybe all it takes is just to be appreciative of what we have. when you think you're lacking something, you're always also having something extra on the other hand...which you might have overlooked.

done with two assignments for the semester, four more to go! and i have to say i really enjoyed the process of both the assignments. doesn't really matter that we don't turn out to be the best, we've really tried our best. thank you to all the lovely group members who made the whole thing so much less stressful for me. all the positive energy you gave really means something to everyone in the group.

don't think i'll even remember that i'm actually on a sem break if i don't remind myself so x)

Things we don't see; things we don't say.

can't believe it rained so heavily out of a sudden! and i really haven't walked in such heavy rain for a long long time already... even with a big umbrellas, half of our body was completely drenched. for a moment it actually felt like we were on some secret mission fighting with the rain that continuously falls on you without mercy. the swimming pool was so flooded, everywhere else was wet we had to go to the gym room (no complaints since it's my first time there! except it's lacking fresh air and there's no way we could see the sky from there) but it's a different feeling altogether to be walking on the treadmill while talking to each other :) then when the heavy rain turned to drizzle, it was so nice to be standing with our feet dipped in the pool, talking under the umbrella. sad for the umbrella that was turned inside out by the strong wind though. still can't stop feeling thankful that the cigar didn't land on us :/ and thank you for dropping me home, sorry for opening your car door again and again there were too many things i wanted to tell you. aah how i wish i have four months of holidays too. then we can look for more meaningful things to do together.

so unconsciously...

To believe.

The difficult times are just there to remind us how much we should treasure the happy moments.

It's always been much easier accepting than rejecting.

When there's no absolute right or wrong, it's all up to us to make it work.


Am i just really getting too used to it?

Complementary.

happy old times. seriously, ROFL! xD

it was such a good long conversation with you yesterday:) love it how we both had so much to say we didn't know who to go first, how you were asking me questions that helped me reassured my thoughts, how you could understand what i was feeling, how you could complete my sentence before i even said it...

laughed too hard talking to you, the rest of the day felt so much better.

things we do not know, things we're afraid of knowing, things we can't bring ourselves to do...
i guess we'll just let them be:)
