Hyes and Hellos

Dear Qwerty,

I'm more than two weeks into this sem. But I don't feel the urge to study as I would have in the last sems. Why is that so? Qwerty, please scold me. I need to start studying now!

Will write to you later. Bye for now~

p/s: please pray for me.

Why?

Dear Qwerty,

I'm currently listening to One Republic's All Fall Down from their album Dreaming Out Loud. Isn't it one of the best song ever? Loving the lyrics to the last of my neurons. I think we would all interpret the lyrics differently, but it's okay, that proves that we human beings are unique. That we don't have carbon copies of each other. That we are who we are, forever.

We should learn to appreciate each other too, because there's no replacement for anybody. When it's gone, it's gone, for good.

And most importantly, we must appreciate ourselves too. Cuz there's no replacement for us in this world, ever again. Not in a hundred years, not in thousands, never.

I believe we live for a purpose in this world. And not just any purpose, it's something that only we can do.

It could be from the littlest thing such as picking a can off the road that could harm an old lady coming on the way without we knowing it, to being the first human walking on the moon. But bear in mind that we humans are created to choose, which explain our tremendous ability to choose, even our future. It's human's exclusive ability. I'd like to use it then.

But as always, God will make all the decision.

Don't be disappointed if you didn't get what you've worked for. We could easily love things that is detrimental to us, we often avoid things that are essential for us. That's why God will make the decision for us, so that we don't choose wrongly.

Please do remember, that everything happens for a reason. Be strong. Be patient. And eventually, you will find out the reason why.

P/s: Don't be afraid to cry, it's our strongest defense and most potent rejuvenator for heartbreak.

Morning Starshine!!

Hi Qwerty,

I've noticed that our Fuzzy is gone. Did you see where it went?

Hi and hello again my dearest soulboard. It's been a very long time. I was quite busy, actually, neck-breakingly busy with everything. It's holiday, so yeah! I'd like to tell about what I've been up to during this sweet one and a half month of no class. :)

Good news! Our to-cook list is 95% fulfilled. I've cooked practically everything, except for the pumpkin pie. My family don't seem to have any interest when I mention it, so I guess I'd leave my mum's flour stock alone this time. The soft pretzels and Portuguese tart is a hit though! Thank you AllRecipes... :))

Today me and my brother made some caramel popcorns. I learned it from YouTube and Metacafe and it turned out terrific! We decided not to buy ready made popcorns ever again. Thanks to the uploaders! :D

Other than that, I've also made some sewing projects. I found my mum's stash of colourful, pretty scrap-fabrics. We washed them up (which is pretty silly when our neighbours saw them hanged to dry) and sorted them according to their "degree of prettiness" (wth is that??) lol. I've made one little bag (I can't call it a pouch, it doesn't even look like a pouch) and a button-pouch. The little bag is inspired by a great blog and the button-pouch (which I plan to use as a makeup bag, for all I have is a compact powder, a LipIce and a eau-de-toilette) is everywhere on the net. It's fun! But it takes pounds of effort and time (and that's mainly because I'm a sloth, duhh..). I'm going to make a phone pouch tomorrow. And that's because.......

.......I've got a newphone!!!

Yay I've got a new phone! Yayayayayayayayyayyyyy!!! Wait, why am I so excited? That's because.....my brother bought it for me!!! Yayayayayayayyyyy!! Wait, not really, he just paid half the price. But that's good enough! :) I paid the other half using my sister's money! LOL... am I like a money-monster now? She gave it to me though, I didn't steal or cheat it, okay? :D

So if I do the math (that's so worrying, cuz I've passed math only once in my lifetime), nothing comes out of my pocket. Nokia 5230 comes in though.

And so the story began:

Once upon a time, a girl lost her phone out of clumsiness. She was so stupid to leave the phone in the bag while she went into the library. It was SE W580i in Metro Pink. It was her favourite phone, ever. (Sobs)

Since then she started looking for a new phone so that she can use both Celcom Upax and Maxis. Due to her incurable white-freakiness, the first phone that caught her eyes was a sleek, colourful, white-front; Nokia 5230. Whenever she saw a photo of the phone, she can't help but whispered to herself; omg, that's sickly cool! But it is a touchscreen, so considering the money value plus the repair cost that is almost sure with a touchscreen, she cancelled it and aim for Nokia 6730 instead (she trusts Nokia for durability).

But then, with much love from god, she eventually got it for free. (I feel very lazy to type out the whole story lol).

Perhaps I'll talk more about the phone later, about what I love and hate about it. Meanwhile, if there's any question about it, feel free to ask! :)
