Hey there! I just changed my blogskin :) It's a little user-unfriendly because you can't navigate my past posts by headings or hashtags. So i'm gonna update the codings, stay tuned! (The font's kinda hard to read too..other than these 3 peeves, i'm quite satisfied) Follow me on the links below! :) 29/4/2015.
Started this blog during the last few weeks of SEM1(AY2014/15) cos' i regained interest in blogging. I blog about anything - news, social issues, music - but mostly about my university life :) Hope my posts will help you to make better life (and module) choices! Currently a Sociology Major. Still fresh. xD
Today, together with my OCIP pals, we went for this workshop organised by TOUCH to prep for our trip. Pretty useful tips, considering that i'll be helping out in the planning of SOCIP as well. I know nuts about planning CIP LOL, there's much more planning involved than normal progs and games. I think there may be many misconceptions about CIP, like "all you do is service, it's a one-sided giving relationship"- but no, the giver has something that he needs to take away too, and these lessons come from intentional reflections which lead to greater self-awareness and self-growth. (I think i'm kinda morally deprived from such moral-value-lessons cos i haven't been going to church lately, tis seemed like some goody goody moral-boost LOL)
Kay anyway i foresee that our journey is not gonna be easy..with SOCIP and OCIP. After listening to the poor sanitary conditions..ugh toilet with no divider..i'm like /:w ;'( o_o
But i will (try to) step out of my comfort zone. Stay positive!
But seriously, i'm so drained from my commitments, sigh. Someone give me morale boost eh. I need more people i can rant to. I scared i burn out before finals ;''(

“To put away aimlessness and weakness, and to begin to think with purpose, is to enter the ranks of those strong ones who only recognize failure as one of the pathways to attainment; who make all conditions serve them, and who think strongly, attempt fearlessly, and accomplish masterfully.”
- James Allen Quotes
Sometimes I wonder how people see me and what they think of me. It scares me a bit, honestly. I am sure though, that what they think of me,
what they think my life is, is a complete misperception. I have always tried to show myself as a carefree person, as someone who wont get bothered
because of public judgements. I am sure my friend and family think there is nothing going wrong in my life, that I do not worry enough, that
I am always happy. And I am sure they probably somewhat hate me for it because, lets admit it, there is nothing worse than seeing someone
who is life seems so perfect while yours is a complete mess. Truth is, I have become an expert at pretending. I think we are all experts
or at least we are getting there.
