Heart-wrenching

It is saddening to watch the news everyday to see disasters happening; the earthquake in china, bombings in India... It's painful to see all these disasters happening around us and we are really very fortunate to be safe in this little island.

There are lots of touching stories in China. Take for example, a mother who was on the verge of dying; lifted up her top and allows the baby to have sufficient milk to stay alive. Another example; a filial son who placed his mum in a large basket and carrys her around to run for life. Another example; a mum tried to protect her baby by sacrificing her body to support those loads. She hid a handphone in the baby and it reads: Dear baby, if you manage to stay alive, do know that mum really love you! There is a particular story that touches me. A volunteer joined the searching team; he heard the cries of her daughter while he was hunting for signs of survival of the victims. At the same time, he spotted a group of children and he could save them easily instead of his daughter who was burried so much deeper than them. He forsaked his daughter and went to save that bunch of kids. The cries of her daughter got fader and fafer. Eventually, he heard nothing- absolute silence. He knew he had lost her daughter. Tears were flowing down his cheeks but he still continued saving the victims. Just imagine the agaony in him. He was that close to his daughter but yet he had to forsake her to save the rest. That is really noble of him!

Disasters are devastating, it separated people from life and death. Those who passed away, died in pain and those who manage to stay alive; suffer from heart-wrenching (missing their loved one).

We are indeed lucky to live in a disaster-free country. I do hope that this disasters will end die really soon!

Turn back the clock

Skipped the 9pm lecture. Anyway, the lecturer was late and i heard that it was due to the accident at PIE. I'm trying to make myself least guilty of not attending it.ahaha.

Met julia and sokgin in the evening to have our dinner. We had a really great time mingling with each others. It reminds me of the days when we were in secondary. Those were the days that i missed so much and of course, with kailin too (:

Those were the days i missed!

Trapped

The fourth week of school, things seem to be within my control now but i have no idea whether it will still remain the same weeks later.

I have an interesting encounter to share. I went to the ladies and was trapped inside the cubicle. Oh my!! And miss wonder leg; zoe kicked the toilet's door and saved me from misery. Actually, zoe claimed that she uses little strength but heaven knows why i cant open the door. I cant imagine myself stuck inside that foul smelly toilet. This incident is really embarrassing.

Assignments and project works seem to be piling, 3 more weeks to semester tests and after that i could enjoy my well-deserved term break.
What a hectic school life i've got this year!

I'm feeling stress in my studies right now. Just merely 3 weeks in school. Indeed the choice that i made a year back was really a 'wise' one. I have completely no idea when will this put to a stop. All that i know is that i'm feeling exhausted.

Selective listener- That is who i am. I select those that i want to hear and if i have neither the mood or wish to hear, no matter how loud or how clear the conversations are, my ears will still remain shut.

An analogy of a balloon, the more air you pump in, the bigger it will get. However, if you pump too much air in it, the balloon will burst in no time.
Right now, i feel like this balloon!
