~Achievement...~

What does achievement mean to me?
Achievement is something i gain from my creation of masterpiece?
Achievement is something i get from what i have always wished for?
Achievement is an acknowledgement from all my hard work?
Achievement is also making a crying soul Smiles back to you
:(( ------> :)

I consider self satisfaction is also a kind of achievement. And even, making others smile i will feel contented.
Achievement means a gold medal for sport athletes
Achievement means an oscar award for actors and actresses
Achievement means seeing your child growing into a strong and healthy man

When you have found what the real meaning of achievement means to you
work hard and go for it.

Graduation

I like this song Graduation by Vitamin C
it meant alot to me...
because it was what my heart felt since the 10th month before graduation.
This is what I want to share

And so we talked all night about the rest of our lives
Where we gonna be when we turn 25
I keep thinking times will never change,
Keep on thinking things will always be the same.
But when we leave this year we won't be coming back,
no more hanging out cuz were on a different track
and if you, got something that ya need to say,
you better say it right now cuz you dont have another day
Cuz we're moving on and we cant slow down
these memories are playing like a film without sound
and I keep thinking of that night in June,I didnt know much of love but it came too soon.
And there was me and you and we got real blue,stay at home talking on the telephone,
with me,
we'dget so excited and we'd get so scared, laughing at ourselfs thinking lifes not fair...
And this is how it feels...

As we go on,
We remember,
All the times we,
Had together,
And as our lives change,
Come whatever,
We will still beFriends Forever...
So if we get the big jobs and we make the big money,
when we look back now will that joke still be funny?,
will we still remember everything we learned in schoool,
still be trying to break every single rule?
Will little brainy Bobby be the stockbroker man?
Can Heather find a job that won't interfere with her tan?
I keep, I keep thinking that its not goodbye,
Keep on thinkin its a time to fly,
And this is how it feels...

Will we think about tomorrow like we think about now?
Can we survive it out there?
Can we make it somehow? (somehow)I guess I thought that this would never end,
AND SUDDENLY IT'S LIKE WE'RE WOMEN AND MEN
Will the past be a shadow that will follow us round?
Or will these memories fade when I leave this town?,
I keep, I keep thinking that its not goodbye
Keep on thinking its a time to fly...
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

5 years ago, high school graduation doesn't mean anything to me.
Because, I know someday somehow I will still get to meet all my friends back...
we are all from the same place, nomatter how far we flew, we will still get back to our good old hometown.

5 years later, on convocation, are we still gonna meet each other after that?
Some will tell you, let fate decide...
Some will tell you, why not? If we want to

- = Moving Thoughts = -

Extracted from an email:
Maybe God wants us to meet a few wrong people before meeting the right one so that when we finally meet the right person, we will knowhow to be grateful for that gift.

When the door of happiness closes, another opens, but manytimes we look so long on that closed door that we don't see the one which has been opened for us. To be continued...

The best kind of friend is the kind you can sit on a porch and swing with, never say a word and then walk away feeling like it was the best conversation you ever had.
It's true we don't know what we've got until we lose it, but it's also true that we don't know what we have been missing until it arrives.

Giving someone all your love is never an assurance that they'll love you back. Don't expect love in return; just for it to grow in their heart, but if it doesn't, be content that it grows in yours. It takes only a minute to get a crush on someone, an hour to like someone, a day to love someone, but it takes a life time to forget someone.

Don't go for looks, they can deceives, don't go for wealth, even that fades away. Go for someone who makes you smile because it takes only a smile to make a dark day seem bright. Find the one that makes your heart smile :)

There are moments in life that you miss someone so much that you just want to pick them from your dream and hug them for real!
Dream what you want to dream; go where you want to go; be what you want to be, because you have only one life and one chance to do all the things you want to do.
May you have enough happiness to make you sweet, enough trials to make you strong, enough sorrow to keep you human, enough hope to make you happy...

Happiness lives for those who cry, those who hurt, those who have searched, and those who have tried.. for only they can appreciate the importance of people who have touched their lives. Loves begins with a smile, grows with a kiss and ends with a tear. The brightest future will always be based on a forgotten past, you can't go on well in life until you let go of your past failures and heartaches.

When you were born, you were crying and everyone around you was smiling. Live your life so that when you die, you're the one who's smiling and everyone around you is crying...

end
**********************************************************************************
I hate grinding my teeth and holding back the tears when I really feel like crying. I know.. when I wipe away the tears, I'll have to be stronger... tougher. When sorrow was overwhelming... cry to let them go... and you'll feel better...
When happiness comes along, cherish every moments, someday you'll look back and smile.
Do you know a smile is contagious? Yes yes yes... hehe... so smile and spread the happiness!!! :) :) :) :) :)

*** CNYE Night ***

Tonight, there was 8th Chinese New Year Extravaganza Nigt (CNYE) in campus.
During that week, we had also a series of activities held by the Chinese Language Society (CLS)
such as tang yuen competition, Paper Art Class, Cultural exhibition, Spring Carnival etc. But i joint none of them :p

Yeah... this year i was rather weird, I'm not looking forward to chinese new year. Perhaps too many things happened recently and blew away my spring mood :p

I went to puduraya bus station to get my ticket back on Thursday afternoon for the Friday Haji break and forgot about the CNYE night.

When I reached campus, it was already 7pm, i rushed back home to get a shower and flied all the way to campus. It's good that we were still early :p when i reached there at 7:30....

After all the speeches by VIP, the drama started at 9:15, oh my god.. this is what we call the chinese culture ---LATE
Unlike the previous year, there was no dance performance or singing going on. It was solely drama , oh... :( then it must be pretty boring, feeling rather disappointed.

The storyline in this drama revolves around the issues pertaining superstition, chinese education and also the status of chinese female in the society.

The story begins with two neighbour of different background, Yip family was western minded and the Zhang family had very conservative oriental kind of thinking. Coincidently, both of the family were running pharmacy business. They always fight against each other and banned their children from mixing together.

However, the conflict of elder generation did not stop the younger ones from making friends. Instead, they were very good buddies. Both of their daughters, Hui Ping and Jacklyn were close friends, but Hui Ping was lesbian :p She was in love with Jacklyn and this had ruin their friendship. Because she was into girl, she could not accept Ah Mao who was going after her. Ah Mao was from a rich family but abit sot sot one keke... The traditional Yip family could not accept their daughter dating a girl and forbided her from going out as they were afraid this would bring a big news around the neighbourhood and damage their reputation.

At the mean time, both of their sons were best friends who always played together and encouraged each other to fight for their dreams. Unfortunately, their parents strongly against their ambition, saying that they had to go on with their family business and sticked to what they have planned for them. Finally Zhang's son had chosen to commit suicide to end his misery... From this event, the Yip's family had learnt a lesson and allowed their son to pursue his dream...

It was a touching story.... for the first time CLS had change a different perspective for the theme of 8th CNYE. But of cos, my mood was already down and watching this had given me more things to ponder... haha anyway... the drama was ok... not as interesthing as the 6th CNYE performance..

But, tonight is a night I will remember.
