Alone

For me, those bad days of my life were the days I feel that I am alone. There was no one besides me, not even anyone on the road, especially at the night. I think this happened to most of us. No matter how many friends do we have, at some times, we can feel that the loneliness is killing us. Or I don't know, is it only the problem of being single? haha..

Stress!!

Bad day..well... Has anyone of you thought the same with me? For me, bad day(s) come at exam time... Those are the days when you can't really go out, stay at home, stressing out like crazy...

But maybe what Joshua said is true. There is no real 'bad day' in our life. It's just our mind. During exam period, stress is uncontrollable. It's just there. The more you think to control it, the more you feel it. It's like you say it to yourself, 'Don't stress, don't stress...' But the thing is, you get more stress. I think, probably, it is because you do not believe yourself. I myself, always think, how if the questions are hard, how if I fail, how if I can't do it, how if I fell asleep in the exam....... Well... How if..... Those 'how ifs' just never ends..

So, how to handle it?? I don't know...!! If I know, I will not stress out during exam time anymore. It is easy to say that you just have to believe in yourself but it is hard to do it in practice. But, sometimes, when I have bad days, I share it, and I find it really helps. And I always remember the passage in the bible, it says do not be afraid about tomorrow. And I believe somehow, God will always lead us to something beautiful at the end. So, if you have bad day(s), it's alright, you will get over it. And remember, pressure makes diamonds eyy?

Week 6 Theme : Bad Day

I found an interesting article a couple of days ago and thought that it would be great to share y'all. It's about the science of having a bad day. Well, in a nutshell, there are some of those days when we wake up and in a matter of hours or so, we just know it's going to be our bad day. But the science tells the complete opposite. There is apparently no such thing as a bad day. It's all just in our heads and we are the ones to be blamed for creating our own bad day. Experiencing the world with negative expectations is like viewing reality through a muddy waterglass. Your view will be distorted and you won't like what you see.

But anyway, BAD DAY will be your theme for next week. Tell us what you think would make up your bad day. I know I know these past weeks has been sooo suffocating for most of us (yeah, the beauty (read:pain) of being a student) with shitloads of final assignments to do and not to mention the upcoming exam pressure. Let's just try our ultimate best to keep this blog running throught the semester!

Orange

I am sooo sorry for being so late for 'fave colour' assignment. It was a very busy week. And actually I was still hoping that some of you would post for last week assignment.

Anyway, orange is my favourite colour. I love how the colour is never boring, exciting, funny. I think this colour describes me well. Also, orange is a mixture of red and yellow, two colours that I also love.

Childhood Memory

I remember when I was a kid; about 7 years old, and my mom would color code us three (me and my 2 older sisters). My eldest sister would be marked blue, 2nd older sister pink and me yellow. The reason my mom did this is because she said that we tend to choose those colors over anything. 

So I wonder what yellow means.

"Yellow is the color of sunshine. It's associated with joy, happiness, intellect and energy"

I don't know whether I've lived up to this expectations but it brings me to the day when a friend of mine suddenly told me, out of nowhere; 

"Yoh, thanks for bringing me happiness, cus whenever I see you down the hallway you always give a big smile that even when I'm down it cheers me up!"

Week 5 Theme

Hello everyone, I really want to thank you for your posts :) I know it is not an easy thing to cook + capture a photo + write something in our blog, that's why I appreciate all your work. Turns out that you guys are not only good in photography and writing but also cooking! Those of you who didn't have the time to post something, that's fine as well. I'm waiting for your next week post.

Soo, week 5 theme is your favourite colour.

You can capture anything you want with 1 dominant colour; your favourite colour.

Your photo will be able to tell us directly what colour is that. Whether it is black, blue, yellow, pink, anything you want :)

Thank you.

Cheers,
