i've been staring at this empty text box for mintues...
goldfish crack keycodeand i still don't know what to write..
hmm...
home alone.
parents are out of town.
My great-grandpa passed away.
享年 108 岁 。。
memories of him were vauge..since young he was just this strange old man that lived in my grandpa's house..he hardly talks,since he can't hear us properly..however what struck a deep impression on me was his ability and physique despite his age..
my great-grandpa was a very independent man..he does almost everything by himself..washing the clothes,cooking a meal and even had the energy to take a stroll every morning!!Not that my grand-pa didn't take care of him,but he insisted that he could take care of himself.Which he did,surprisely reasonably well at the man of his age.
until recently after his century milestone,things took a pretty bad turn..illness creeped in slowly..his body system started to mulfunction...he seldom comes out of his room unless necessary.
and then finally last night my uncle called.
Sian man...bad things ALWAYS come in a lump sum eh..
In a way i guessed it's something that was coming..
Having lived a century is not something that everyone can.
也算是不幸中的大幸吧...
well..i dedicate this entry to him.
Rest in peace.
=)
The Lessons in life...
18 might not be a very ideal age to start writing about your life and the lessons learnt..but nevertheless, it's gotta start from somwhere. Young may be my age,but there's always a pointer or two that you can pick up here and there.I wouldn't say i've seen and walked across the lands of the earth but i'm more than willing to share my lessons in life..
Pardon my ignorance if u think my statements are not fulfilling.
I've learnt that...
# it's impossible to make someone love you. All you can do is be that someone who can be loved. The rest is up to them.
# no matter how much I try to care, some people just don't care back.
# it's not what you have in your life, but who you have in your life that counts.
# you can do something in an instant that will give you a heartache for life.
# it takes years to build up trust, and only seconds to destroy it.
# no matter how thin you slice it, there are always two sides.
# you should always leave loved ones with loving words. It may be the last time you see them.
# we are responsible for what we do, no matter how we feel.
# there are people who love you dearly, but just don't know how to show it.
# maturity has more to do with what types of experiences you've had and what you've learned from them and less to do with how many birthdays you've celebrated.
# no matter how good a friend someone is, they're going to hurt you every once in a while and you must forgive them for that.
# no matter how bad your heart is broken the world doesn't stop for your grief.
# just because two people argue, it doesn't mean they don't love each other and just because they don't argue, it doesn't mean they do.
# we don't have to change friends if we understand that friends change.
# you shouldn't be so eager to find out a secret; it could change your life forever.
# there are a lot of ways of falling and staying in love.
# no matter how many friends you have, all really need is that one true friend.
# the people you care most about in life are taken from you too soon.
# although the word "love" can have many different meanings, it loses value when overly used.
# love is not for me to keep, but to pass on to the next person I see.
#sweet memories are like your favourite song,you want to replay them again and again.
#do not indulge in them too much..if not you'll never get to hear the next better song.
#it's very natural for us to say we're okay,when we're actually not.
# even when I have pains, I don't have to be one to others.
# And last but not least....
I've learned that I still have a lot to learn..
my entries seemes kinda sloppy nowadays...
i wonder where has that zest and energy gone to...
