Well, it has been so long since I posted here. About 4 years, almost forgotten about the existence of this blog. Looking back at this blog, I kind of like the design (: Haha, anyways, life is ok at Uni, the usual lectures, tutorials and stuffs. Stressful periods during exams... Come to think about it, around this time next year I'll be graduating from NUS and looking for a job. My study life would be over and stepping into the working life. I don't know how it will feels like, whether I'll be able to cope with the stress in worklife. But still, I'm kind of looking forward to my graduation and the new phase of my life. Jiayou Yuanlin! Complete your last lap and move on! (:

another post for today before i go back to study =.=
sometimes i feel... is really having alot a must? i mean, having everything to yourself, following fashions like changing phones every month, buying clothes and being obsessed with material things a must? sometimes, having alot may not be as good as what many think. for example, in my previous post, having all the good results, which were "good" because health is compromised, is not worth it. no point having all the money and cannot enjoy any rite?
furthermore, we must remember that, whatever our possession is, in this life, cannot be brought with us when we die. and to think of it, everyone will die eventually ( not to offend), so why bother being so obsessed over such material stuffs which you can never bring with you?
in addition, in the process of being materialistic, u might harm your relationship with others, especially with your friends, when they actually gave you a present that were painfully made from their heart and you dun like it because is "cheap". you may think that everyone is like you, being obsessed over phones, cameras and money, but there are still a handful outside that treat those as less importance. and by saying such hurtful things, u are compromising your relationship with your friends for your wants, your desires.. is this worth it?
well, some may disagree and says that it is their right to spend their money however and whereever they like, and we are in no position to judge, since the money is earned by themselves. though i agree to a certain extent, i would say that many compromises many other things like relationships with their families and friends to earn the money that they think is sufficient for them. furthermore, one should realise that our desire is never fufilled, so this amount of money can never be sufficient and enough for one who is obsessed with money.
in conclusion, i would want to stress that, money, handphones, cameras... are not limited to a certain amount or brand or model, and because of this our desires can never be fufilled and so we should not be obsessed over it and should place more emphasis on more important things mentioned earlier. i'm not saying that we should not purchase all these things, and should live in some remote area to meditate our lives, but my point is, do not be too obsessed.

lol.. cant believe it.. A levels will come in about less than 1 mth now.. hmm... somehow, i feel very irritated for its coming leh.. a bit nervous for CLL and GP, haha but i think i haf done so much prepration for chem such that i now get sick every tuesday.. ( CHEM ASP) =p... one year passed by so quickly, and i didnt really get to know this year and it just flew past me again.. this is not the first time le... during O levels, everyday seems the same old boring days for me... but at least, for this A levels, i never compromise my health for the results (except today=p), and expectally my results got worse? LOL but i still feel that health more important ba, no point ruining my own health to get to some prestigious course and getting good job with decent pay and in the end using all the money earned to pay for my medical fees rite? haha so i would say i am more carefree these 2 years ba? which i like it since i feel less tensed up and less dark circles around my eyes =) furthermore, i can be more focus now in lessons and be able to absorb more too... =) so, my main point is to tell people who were following my old footsteps ( staying up to study), think of the consequences and also weigh the pros and cons before deciding on what to do... i would not say that buring midnight oil is bad and NO ONE should do it, i'm just saying that we should be aware of the consequences and do not overdo it.. one or two days of midnight oil is ok, but to do it on a everyday basis is not advisable.. =) heed this advice, because i'm also one of the 过来人... lol...
(specially go out to some of my juniors who are seriously trying this method for their O levels..)
