斬斷自己的退路，才能更好地贏得出路。

Happened to see this post written back in 1st October 2013 whereby I made the decision to leave food science forever. 

"斬斷自己的退路，才能更好地贏得出路。在很多時候，我們都需要一種斬斷自己退路的勇氣。
因為身後有退路，我們就會心存僥倖和安逸，前行的腳步也會放慢；
如果身後無退路，我們才能集中全部精力，勇往直前，為自己贏得出路"

Two years later, despite all the opportunities lying in front of me, I have made another decision for myself. You were right, I do not need an insurance to ensure that I have something to fall back onto one day. If I think this is what I want, I shouldn't give myself the opportunity to ever look back. I have chose the road not taken and will definitely anticipate where it will lead me to. 

对不起,我很忙

对不起,我很忙
我没空打理这些芝骂绿豆的小事

对不起,我很忙
有什么事一个月后再说吧

对不起,我很忙
我今天无法赴约了

对不起,我很忙
我竟然把答应你的事给忘了

对不起,我很忙
我这个月没空回家陪父母

对不起,我很忙
这句话,已经是每个人的口头禅

"对不起,我很忙" - 有些人已经习惯把它挂在嘴边

其实你有没有想过人家的时间也是宝贵的
人家的时间也是可以用金钱来衡量的

为什么你要人家尊重你的时间, 但是你却忘了迁就其他人呢?

说真的, 如果你觉得我的时间没有价值,你也别指望我会把你的时间看在眼里.

对不起,我也很忙好不好?

 p/s: "对不起", 一旦说多了,就变得没价值了

Last year. This time

Today, I've officially survived a year of work.
Last year, I saw this quote which say ''dont worry about failure, worry about the chances you miss when you don't even try.
This year, I saw a chinese quote which says "斬斷自己的退路，才能更好地贏得出路。在很多時候，我們都需要一種斬斷自己退路的勇氣。
因為身後有退路，我們就會心存僥倖和安逸，前行的腳步也會放慢；
如果身後無退路，我們才能集中全部精力，勇往直前，為自己贏得出路"
It means that one should not have any plan B in life. If there's no escape plan in life, we will only focus on plan A because there's the only path we have. Then, we will give 100% commitment to what we are doing.

Today, I have already eliminate the backup plan. I shall start going out full force in getting what I really what.

化了

要开始对对自己好的人更好
对自己不好的人也得对他们好
有时候把事情看轻了也不见得是个坏事
还是别把生命浪费在无畏的事上.

有时候，也许。。。

有时候，也许会觉得自己做的并不值得的
有时候，也许会觉得自己把自己的热脸贴在人家的冷屁股上
有时候，也许会想自己是否也对其他人做了一样的行为
有时候，也许会觉得这一切让自己太累了
有时候，也许会觉得如果就这样结束也未免太可惜了
有时候，也许会念在那么多年的交情上看开些
有时候，也许。。。
有时候。。。有时候。。。

Death

I received the news yesterday. My examiner for my fyp passed away due to heart attack.
Coincidently, he just came across my mind a day before he passed away.
Many of my coursemates find it difficult to accept the news.

Who would expect a 47 years old lecturer who is definitely at the prime of his career left us in a sudden? Everything was just so perfect for him. But,God decide to take him away.

This whole thing reminds me of the post which I have written earlier. I think death can happen to anyone. If you don't feel happy doing something, leave. If you want something badly, go for it. Treat your friends and family better. No one can tell how many days we have in this world. You won't know how many 5 years or 10 years you or they currently have.

Life is fragile. Cherish it.

I think the title is boring enough to catch anyone's attention. I have so many stories to share but I have no time for it. I guess one week is just too short for everything. Speaking of clearing the house, packing and unpacking. Hmmmm..There's so much to do but so little time. I wanted to blog about this global mobility programme which gave me insights about the natives and a aboriginal people in Malaysia. I also want to talk about the interesting journey at Medan but I'm just too lazy to sort out the pictures. =S Blogging is a way to keep the good & bad memories. Perhaps I will find the inspiration to blog right after my second holiday. Some people start asking me if I'm going to start work soon. Aiyoo..where got so soon? If I wanted to start work in July, I would have apply earlier but I can't afford to give up my holidays. I've seen people who got the right job one year after working. It's all about time. Finding the right job is like finding the right pair of shoe as I'm going to stick with it for the few years until I want to get a new job. Hmm..I guess I'll give it 5 years, then I'll take a long break before venture into another 5 years. Well, it's too early to say anything right now. Let's see where life lead me to. =)

Final sprint

Last paper on Monday. Viva on wednesday. Holiday! 

Will do proper update soon. Bear with me k? =)

Tomorrow is the start of the last semester! Woahh..its like finally! Okay. I'm feeling old nao =( I got my result the other day and I'm so grateful. It's like the best result I got for the past 3 years. lmao. It was a very busy semester- work, facilitating, language courses and studies but I survived. I'm tempted to take more language course this semester to pull my grades a little bit higher. We will see. Work was very tiring but interesting stuff happen everyday and I get to know few more new friends. Hence, its not that bad yet. I want to tell stories of a he-she but it is 18sx for sure. I don't know where to begin with. Let me observe a little bit more and write a post about that. I met up with a few friends on Valentines Day and I felt so stress about searching for a job. They said that the market is really bad this year and there's not many job opportunities around. I saw a few potential job and yet I'm not starting so early. I have travel plans lining up till September. I can't possibly attend the interview now and tell them that I will start in October right? I'm considering the buffering period in between interviews too. Well, definitely need some consultation before I proceed.

Till then.

断

每次告诉自己要做个断掉，要忘记，要往前看。
可是，有些人，有些事还是会把我们联在一起。
告别了，曾经是我心中最重要的事。

When I was working last weekend, the question keep coming to me.
"Why am I doing this?"
"Why am I standing here while I can actually enjoy myself out there?"
"Why am I holding this for so long?"
Then, I remember the reason behind it. The motivation that push me so far.
Working during the weekends is not easy at all especially when you have class on Monday.
It's like a marathon run. I've been practicing it since May last year but it's not easy when you have a morning class on Monday after working for at 8-12 hours the day before.
And yet, I don't complain. Nobody force me to work.
It was the same feeling when I was involved in A in the first two years of my university life.
The same feeling I had when I was staying extra days in uni just to attend my language courses. 
Hence, I remind myself 'Remember the reason why you are doing this.'
Nevertheless, it keeps me moving. I shall continue till I achieve what I yearn for.

Learning Thai

Do you know how difficult it is to write Thai consonant? 

Japanese language is so much easier. The best thing is they have 44 consonants! 20 more to go :(

New arrival!

I wrapped all the new books from BBW!

如果以前有人问我“你将来要做什么？”
我会告诉他“我要努力赚钱”
如果现在你问我， “你毕业后会有什么打算？”
我会告诉他 “我不知道。。因为未来的一年 is unpredictable.”

最近读了很多不同的文章，所以有了不同的想法。
以前的我总认为毕业后找工作赚钱是最重要的， 但现在却不一样了。
可能是他们所说的，在不同的阶段，我们看重的东西都会不一样吧。
有时候看多了，不知道是好事还是坏事。
我个人认为当一个人厌倦了现在的环境，他是时候出去走走， 看看外面的世界是怎样的。看多了，思想就会不同了。
有时候走出自己的comfort zone, 和不同的人聊天，交流，会学到截然不同的知识。
但是，有时候走多了，看多了，自己就会变得很迷茫。
现在，我觉得开心过日子是最重要的。
哪怕哪一天我倒下了，我会对自己说“我对我之前所做的决定从来没有后悔过。”
这才是最重要的。

I'm flattered.

For the past two days, the girls who are 3 years younger than me ask if I'm same age as them. I'm flattered when I heard about it. =) I remember the same thing happened last semester break. I'm currently working 12 hours per day and this have to last for another 9 days. 11 days to go till I leave this country again. I can't wait for the ala-roller-coaster-ride holiday.

I own a company!

K found a shop under my name at The Philipines last year.

And now, R found a company under my name.

He said Xin Hui Sdn Bhd is expanding worldwide. XD

Can't be use in heaven?

I was helping my cousin to prepare stuff for qingmeng festival and I came across this bank note. It was issued by the Bank of Hell. I asked my sis 'what if our grandparents were at heaven, but not hell?' Hmmm..
