"wisdom"by confucius

There are three methods to gaining wisdom:
The first is reflection, which is the highest.
The second is imitation, which is the easiest.
The third is experience, which is the bitterest
~ Confucius


The superior man is satisfied and composed;
the mean man is always full of distress
~ Confucius

thanks for walking by my side~

i am really glad to know that there are people following my blog out there
i always doubted if anybody reads it..
thanks for reading and i am hoping to get more feedback from you...

really grateful that i have you.. you.. you.. and you...
i am starting to like ktt and the people more
people like lim susu who will pk songs with me till midnight during the exam week ^^
v k who taught me so many stuffs that i cant teach myself
lilian who is able to tell real funny jokes
mei yi for always being so helpful
wei lin for helping us to save rm 50...haha!
the "pinky gal" ,"dancing queen" and little vimala who acted more like my sis
my "brother" who sent motivating words in japanese
daksh who is always talking non-stop and yet informative!!
my tweety bird who makes me laugh all the while by imitating somebody...lol
two little cuties joan and joanna smiling along the corridor whenever we met
bing en with her "Japanese look" and wong with his "Chinese look"
cheng who intended to kill me for fooling him during the 1th of april
and many many more people whom i must respect
all those topmost students in malaysia...
cant believe it that i am here
right here with them!

i am lucky
i would consider...
having the opportunity to learn and to listen
to walk by their side
and having them be by my side...

to be frank
i will learn nothing without stepping out of my home sweet home
i will experience nothing without going through those days in NS...
where you have to take good care of yourself no matter what happens
make yourself look tough and confident while doing those strenuous activities
mingling with people of different wavelength
see things from a different perspective
getting more skills and knowledge out of the book
and so on...
so if you are selected for NS...
why not go and have a try??
let's think about the good points of it and you will feel better after all
let it be and enjoy every single moment there
no matter it brings joyful tears
or even grants you a bitter pill..
do you know how does it feels when you got the chance to get hold of a real gun??
that's really cool!!!

even if you are not selected for NS
you can still learn many things by going out of your house or
the alternative is to go online
but then, be wise to search for the best for yourself
i am sure everybody has their own way of learning and understanding and then
growing...
life is ever changing
and the only unchanging fact
is changes itself

i learn by talking to people and LISTENING
just like what i did yesterday...
listening to linda really enlightened me
in many ways...
listening to my roommate, housemates...about anything and everything...
listening to people with the same wavelength
and sometimes different
with my sis, dad, bro,friends all over malaysia~~(hehe...ai seh~~)
just like eating different dishes or a wide range of food
in order to eat a balance meal each day...

people might say
i dont like talking to people whom i dont know
or people i dislike
of different colours, attitude or habit...
i cant understand...
i cant communicate...
i cant give a positive feedback...
i cant do this
i cant do that
maybe we shall put it this way
not that we cant
just that we dont want
we simply refuse to understand and to learn...
we can actually!!
we can do what we want to actually!!!
with the good intention
we shall achieve that!

to be success
it is a task
and not a dream...
there are so many things to do
sometimes left undone
how do we know which should be done first and then...?
lim susu taught me this(its from a motivational book i guess)~~
THEY CAN ACTUALLY BE CATEGORISED INTO 4 GROUPS:
1.important and urgent
2.important and not urgent
3.not important but urgent
4.not important and not urgent

for example, for a CEO...
the phone is ringing in the office...is it important??but its urgent right?
shall he pick up every phone calls
or shall he leave the job to the secretary?
i am sure he has more important stuffs to settle rather than picking up a phone..
tell me if i am wrong k...

for many people,
friends might ajak to go mamak in the midnight
or somewhere else where you usually go lepak...
shall i go??then you will ask...
is it important?
important to what i wanna achieve?
is it urgent??
you yourself will decide!
but sometimes, there're exceptions...
like friend who you treasure a lot
those TRUE friends, i mean!
dont worry!true friends will start to appear as time passes
those who still care for you
keen to know how have you been lately
not forgetting your big day
and leave you bundles of surprises no matter how busy they are
willing to listen to you
giving negative feedback
though it hurts, sometimes~~
just for the sake of your own betterment
and one more fact that valid in all cases
true friends need not meet each other everyday!!

i have only 2 eyes
a pair of ear
a nose and a mouth
nothing different from you all
we made mistakes, and we will learn from it

we both have mind
some opened
some closed~~
lets open up your mind
lets share!!

all human beings will have a "ruler" in them
to measure to what extend they can do something
i would believe...
but we shall not measure others using our own ruler...
coz they will have theirs...

i might be wrong in some way
but i am learning the right way..

i dont know what is the best way for us to communicate
but i hope i can give you the best out of my very best
through this square screen~~

life's short, like a candle in the wind
live high, touching the stars in the sky~~
(p/s: though it doesnt rhyme, get the meaning and live high k!haha!^^)

all the best!!!
