resolutely so

finally settled on the six.

this year, go LU.
keep them in mind. jiayou (:

lets have a good 2009 ahead!

it'll be a long time.

it'll prolly be a long time before i see the econs people. this sem went past really fast. i didnt felt like i had the time to catch my breath. i dont even know how to face next sem. really, i dont.

three books from the library trip for company now! YAY. i was tempted away while looking for seats on thurs :X

lu wants to go cycling, beaches, ubin, somewhere nature-ish. too much buildings for too long. lu needs to run and train for 7dec. (to make resolution completion one step nearer) needs to cheer up and stay happy. needs to start plans going.

off i go to be a bookworm (: i miss reading fiction.

trying not to be self absorbed. keeping myself sane in this crazy world. keeping negativities at bay. thats all you need, lu, for the five weeks to come. concentrate. focus.

learnt in psych class this week that for Kohlberg's theory of moral development, most ppl would be in the preconventional and conventional stage, but few reach the post-conventional stage in their lifetime. it shall be a resolution, perhaps a lifelong goal. belief in humanity, universal human rights and a personal moral code.

gosh that's tough.

i realise today i enjoy reading blogs cos there's so much insight and learning points. revisited this blog today after a long time, where someone is in the same dilemma and struggle. someone grapples with the same daily issues that i grapple with. it always feel better to have company, doesnt it?

happy (belated) children's day. wished i received presents like i did in pri sch. could we all retain the curiousity, innocence and kindness as we did ten years ago pls?

two shades darker!

i'm back (: and i really enjoyed this trip.

its a different experience. one that prompt myself to promise myself to return, as long as i have the means to. one that showed me the simple but happy side of mankind. one that told me of the friendliness of Cambodians.

thank you cam'on and bblc. i miss u already.

42KM finisher!

yay! i completed my first marathon this morning!
its really more mentally exhausting than anything else, with my last 4km in the rain and aching knees after the 10k mark. the struggle between walking and jogging was torturous.

the night view was breathtaking though! from the stretch of airport lights to the reflection at bedok reservior and the windy east coast park, it was an enjoyment. even though now im battling blisters, sore and aching knees,calfs, thighs, i'm just glad, i've accomplished another of my new year resolutions, way ahead of time.

-I want to stop asking people if they missed me.
-I want to devote my time to econs. Its my choice, I’ll do it right. (I will maintain my GPA above 4.0)
-I want to love my family and appreciate them more.
-I will complete a marathon this year! (I will run 2.4km under 11mins. )
-I must love my friends too.

i'm still working hard on the rest(3 more to go!) to bring down the convention of not meeting resolutions (:

thanks jieling and friends for the run. i'm a lousy friend, i pangsehed. i can give myself tons of excuses, but i know they dont suffice. thanks ROOMIE and jessica for coming down with the drinks and breakfast bars! <3 thanks to all those who rmbed my run today and wished me well! thanks to all those whom i've whined to regarding the taunting 42km. also much thanks to the many supporters along the way who cheered us on, at times when it was most difficult to keep going.

well perhaps now i realise, impossible is nothing, cos nothing is impossible. at least just for today.

ossie cecs diana is off to thailand and vietnam today! will miss them!!!
and i love my family (: they were waiting for me at home after my run! HAHA. i think i made mum worried. i said i would never attempt another marathon again to my sis, but took back my words again. the satisfaction is too tempting, i know i will go for it again despite everything. i know myself.
