Its coming to the end of recess week

One week break is going to be over soon. Been coughing badly this whole week. The cough syrup makes me knock out at ard 12 every night. Got a headache twice this week as well. =(

Been very busy this week with CCA garang guni, CCA appreciation dinner, SQ's gift hunting and celebration, and of course not forgetting my fans, my tuition kids.

Celebrated SQ bdae at this korean restaurant in Bugis. After which we went for some "ice-eating" which cause us 18 bucks for two bowls of ice. If you guys think the ice must be real good, you are wrong. Its actually what you can get in normal desert store. Mango ice and red bean ice. Grr. Went to a pub and we simply slack and chit-chat over there. Its been quite long since the five of us were out together. Looking forward to the year end trip with them. =)

It was a busy week but I didnt get much work done. Only managed to read 2.5 chapters of my textbook so far. Looks like someone needs to kick my butt and get my engine going. I need to concentrate more and study abit faster. Two quizzes after recess week! =(

~HAPPY 21st BIRTHDAY SHIQI~
1. Be happy
2. Be healthy
3. Be pretty

Sharing some nice quotes I got from my kid's homework diary:

Our greatest glory is not in never failing, but in rising up every time we fail.

What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within.

Wining is not everything, but making the effort to win is.

The successful man will profit from his mistakes and try again in a different way.

We cannot direct the wind, but we can direct the sails.

You never achieve real success unless you like what you are doing.

Every problem contains within itseld the seeds of its own solution.

Failure is the only opportunity to begin more intelligently.

Life is not a dress rehearsal.

Do not let what you cannot do interfere with what you can do.

I go at what I so as if there is nothing else in the world for me to do.

Never look back unless you want to go that way.

Others can stop you temporarily, but you are the only one who can do it permanently.

Places and circumstances never guarantee happiness. You must decide within yourself whether you want to be happy.

What really matters is what happens in us, not to us.

Its time like this when you feel lost in life.

Going school and tuition have actually become my life. But imagine your life is only about school, tuition, homework, assignments, projects and outings with friends? Week by week it just pass by like this. You dont know what lies ahead of you. All you know is that you have to do this and that by today and the day will just pass by. In economic point of view, you only have short-term planning (or maybe I should say really very short as it is only like a day or the most a week) and no long-term goal. Thinking back, you will be wondering what are you busy with and why I am making myself so busy with things when I dont really know what I want from all the busy-ness.

Its time like this when you feel lost in life, clueless of where the direction of your life is.
