If I'm setting expectations that are apparently too high for me to attain and am too ambitious, then what is suitable? How do I know if my goals are OK? It is very saddening to think that my ambitions are too far off because then am I to live and accept these are how things will be, for the rest of my life? I don't know if it's because my goals are too high that I am unhappy. …

I was out shopping with my mom today and she suddenly told me, Mum: "Next time if you don't get married, you can buy a house of your own. A small one..." Me: "Wha..." Mum: "...a 2-room flat." Me: "Wha...what?" Mum: "So that I can go and stay with you sometimes." Me: "... ..." Me: "Why must you stay over? I was thinking of a studio apartment." Mum: "No, a 2-room flat. For me …
First week of school (and the new year) has passed and tomorrow's the second week. I still remember the first week last year when I was so overworked that I felt 1 month has passed by the end of a week. I have no idea how I survived 6 months after that. This year, however, was a lot better. I felt a lot more in control, no doubt thanks to my new partners. I can't thank them …

I am like a pendulum, swinging between the extremes of feeling excited and dreading work tomorrow, depending on how. It's so bad, I want to just hide under my blanket and escape. I'm starting to think that the only problem in my job is me, and if it's me in particular, then it's going to be very hard for others to understand what I feel. Solution: Hang around happy people! …
2012's nearly upon us now! In the beginning of the year, I made some resolutions and it's time to review them. Resolutions of 2011: 1) Healthier lifestyle - sleeping earlier, exercising regularly. Basically means better time management, really.Did I achieve this? Well, partly. I'm exercising regularly, though it could be more regular. Sometimes I sleep early, sometimes I …
Today, I'd like to speak a little bit about something related to my job. If you do not yet know, I deal with children with mild special needs and I help both these children as well as teachers teaching them, to hopefully try and make their lives a bit easier and better. In this post, I refer specifically only to children with behavioural issues. Behavioural issues arising …

Kindness begets kindness! The acting is a little sucky, but still! Doesn't it describe how it feels sometimes? Yes, I have been kind to someone else before just because someone else had been kind to me that day. Being kind really brightens up one's day, why not try to be kind just once daily?
See that picture on the left? That bunch of cheaply manufactured plastic bags that won't put a dent in the pockets of the shopping mall's management? It bugs the hell out of me. For overseas friends and others who don't know what's it for - Whenever it rains, the stand magically appears. It's for shoppers entering the mall, to bag their wet umbrellas so as to prevent, I … 
How is it that after so long, I still feel something towards him? Even I am surprised at myself. Cousin drew an analogy for this - "it's like putting all of those thoughts and feelings into a room. If you do not open it, you'll be OK. If you do, however..." I prefer to describe my situation as such: Window-shopping. However, it is either too expensive for me to buy or by the …
Sister's friends were over and I happened to hear a tiny snippet of their conversation. Sister: (referring to something)... it was bought in Langkawi. Friend: Langkawi's in Malaysia. Sister: No! Langkawi's in Sri Lanka! Me: *spurt*
I like yogurt. More specifically, I like plain, set yogurt. In fact, I prefer set yogurt to stirred yogurt and plain yogurt to flavoured ones. Set yogurts are typically sour in taste and plain-flavoured. I find that it complements fruits which already taste sweet on their own, such as apples, extremely well. I don't know if it's odd that I prefer sour tasting set yogurt to …
I never really thought young boys could sing so beautifully until I heard this song. Super funny too! Listen to those voices! I'm completely in love with them. I ultimately went on to search for boys choirs on youtube and ended up spending 2 hours watching a movie, "Les Choristes", which featured a boys choir. It was a movie worth watching - beautiful content with beautiful …
Recently, I encountered somebody who exhibited one of my pet peeves through and through. This person thinks that others should not SMS them at unearthly hours of the day, e.g. 6am, when he/she is sleeping. If you're talking about phone calls, then I think it is completely reasonable to be pissed with people who call you at unearthly hours of the day (except if you're on …
