Peace.





Say my memory is good. I don't even remember the last time I met up with Mel. Well but, yes, I finally went out with her yesterday and it was no doubt quality time spent.

I was even worried that we'd have trouble striking up a decent conversation since we haven't met for so long but my worries were uncalled for :) She's still the whiny Mel I like to hang out with.

Lunch at Hoagies to satisfy her craving for Oreo milkshake (even though she jolly well knows she can't drink milk...) before she dragged me to BookFest. Yes, it was my second time to the BookFest and once again, I spent quite a book on books! This devil woman. She made me go there yet she went home empty-handed. Nevertheless, I realised I always don't feel the ache when I spend my money on books. Like I said, the investment in knowledge is a pragmatic one, right?

I've been reading for the past two weeks, even during my exam period. Here are some books I've read in the year:

1. My Sister's Keeper by Jodi Picoult

2. Keeping Faith by Jodi Picoult

3. Change Of Heart by Jodi Picoult

4. Secrets by Freya North

5. The Wednesday Letters by Jason Wright

6. The Alchemist by Paul Coelho

7. Veronika Decides To Die by Paul Coelho

8. Letters To Sam by Daniel Gottlieb

9. 长夜里拥抱 by 张小娴

10. 三月里的幸福饼 by 张小娴

11. 离别曲 by 张小娴

12. 蝴蝶过期居留 by 张小娴

13. 我终究是爱你的 by 张小娴

14. 幸福的味道 by 邓秀茵

Generally, I think all are good books, and the one I want to recommend is Letters To Sam. I really think it's an awesome book. Not exactly deep insights perhaps, but it teaches the lessons of life. It's just fantastic! Friends who want to read this book, please feel free to borrow from me :)

P.S: Special thanks to Jia Hui who always lends me books to read and Christopher who bought me the two books from Hong Kong :)

On CNY

This CNY, I realised many things. I realised I have always envied families who go out as a whole for CNY visiting, or those who invite many relatives and friends over. I realised I am very afraid of the coming of CNY because CNY simply means watching movies and slacking at home for me. I love to watch movies, there is no doubt about that. Perhaps I just don't appreciate the latter because there is so much to face head-on. I hate the silence or otherwise awful hurlings at the dining table. I hate how I need to pretend to be hospitable to people I dislike. This year, I hid in my room when people I did not feel comfortable with came, then I was accused of being stubborn and impolite. Sometimes I really wonder if being myself is of imperative or being polite is. Whichever the case, I want to confess that I really feel tired and unhappy this CNY. The worst is that I feel that no one can understand because everyone I tried to rant this to tells me I should go home because it is CNY after...

On campus,

I think even if I were to leave after this semester, I would probably leave with the fondest memories. What more can I ask for? On a side note, I hope and I choose to believe that my true friends will understand, and so I do not want to explain. Today is my best friend's birthday. HAPPY BIRTHDAY BF! I know you know I am damn stubborn and rebellious and whiny and spoiled and noisy and choosy but you always compromise with me and give in to me in every way you can. Thank youuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu! I hope you will always be happy because you deserve to be. I hope you will gamble less so that you can treat me food more often. I hope you will be blessed because you are special :) I know I am such a sweet best friend! 加油了GL,不要再蹉跎歲月了…
