"Let me tell you something you already know. The world ain't all sunshine and rainbows. It's a very mean and nasty place. And I don't care how tough you are, it will beat you to your knees and keep you there permanently if you let it.

Nobody is gonna hit us as hard as life. But it ain't about how hard you hit, it's about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward, how much you can take and keep moving forward. That's how winning is done.

Now if you know what you're worth, then go out and get what you're worth. But you gotta be willing to take the hits. And not pointing fingers saying ' you ain't where you wanna be because of him or her or anybody'. Cowards do that. And THAT AINT YOU. YOU BETTER THAN THIS."

-Rocky

Who are you?

Where are you?...

Most would have heard of this song already (since its John Mayer).
Meaningful song though.
Well to me, at least.

Why Georgia

I am driving up 85 in the
kind of morning that lasts all afternoon
just stuck inside the gloom

Four more exits to my apartment but
I am tempted to keep the car in drive
and leave it all behind

Cause I wonder sometimes
about the outcome
of a still verdictless life

Am I living it right?
Am I living it right?
Am I living it right?
Why, why Georgia, why?

I rent a room and I fill the spaces with
wood in places to make it feel like home
but all I feel's alone
It might be a quarter life crisis
or just the stirring in my soul

Either way, I wonder sometimes
about the outcome
of a still verdictless life

Am I living it right?
Am I living it right?
Am I living it right?
Why, why Georgia, why?

So what, so I've got a smile on me
but it's hiding the quiet superstitions in my head
Don't believe me
Don't believe me
When I say I've got it down

Everybody is just a stranger but
that's the danger in going my own way
I guess it's the price I have to pay
still "Everything happens for a reason"
is no reason not to ask myself

If your're living it right
Are you living it right?
Are you living it right?
Why, tell me why
Why, why Georgia why?

I get the feeling no one visits here. HAHAHAH
Just as well, then I can vent out my shit here and still be an angel to others on the outside.
MUAHAHAH~

YEAH! Exams are over!
& this damned semester is over! Yay, like finally! HAHAH
Fun and more fun at Louis' chalet. Haven't felt so great for so long =)

Anyway, a short story I read from an email forwarded to me. Just thought I should share it.

Reactions & Responses
Suddenly, a cockroach flew from somewhere and sat on a lady.
I wondered if this was the cockroachs response to all the glory that was spoken about it!

She started screaming out of fear.
With panic stricken face and trembling voice, she started jumping, with both her hands desperately trying to get rid of the cockroach.

Her reaction was contagious, as everyone in her group got cranky to what was happening.

The lady finally managed to push the cockroach to another lady in the group.

Now, it was the turn of the other lady in the group to continue the drama. The waiter rushed forward to their rescue.

In the relay of throwing, the cockroach next fell upon the waiter.
The waiter stood firm, composed himself and observed the behaviour of the cockroach on his shirt.

When he was confident enough, he grabbed and threw it out with his fingers.

Sipping my coffee and watching the amusement, the antenna of my mind picked up a few thoughts and started wondering!

Was the cockroach responsible for their histrionic behaviour?

If so, then why was the waiter not disturbed?
He handled it near to perfection, without any chaos.
It is not the cockroach, but the inability of the ladies to handle the disturbance caused by the cockroach that disturbed the ladies.

I realized even in my case then , it is not the shouting of my father or my boss that disturbs me,

But its my inability to handle the disturbances caused by their shouting that disturbs me.


Its not the traffic jams on the road that disturbs me, but my inability to handle the disturbance caused by the traffic jam that disturbs me.


More than the problem, its my reaction to the problem that hurts me.

The Take-Away :

The women reacted, whereas the waiter responded.

We should not react in life, we should always respond.
Reactions are always instinctive whereas responses are always intellectual.

I'm not afraid to take a stand
Everybody come take my hand
We'll walk this road together, through the storm
Whatever weather, cold or warm
Just let you know that, you're not alone
Holla if you feel that you've been down the same road

And I just can't keep living this way
So starting today, I'm breaking out of this cage
I'm standing up, Imma face my demons
I'm manning up, Imma hold my ground
I've had enough,
Now I'm so fed up
Time to put my life back together right now!

I feel I'm losing control of the things happening around me.
Losing motivation, inspiration and worst of all, losing my mind. :/

Time to take a step back, take a breather, and look at the bigger picture.
Gotta re-assess my options and start to gain control of the situation.

Once again, the big questions about 'Life' pop up in my head.
And once again, I continue to neglect them...

Hmmm...
Don't you find it so hard to be optimistic in the face of adversity?


Throw it away
Forget yesterday
We'll make the great escape

Cold and frosty morning there's not a lot to say
About the things caught in my mind
And as the day was dawning my plane flew away
With all the things caught in my mind

I don't wanna be there when you're ...
Coming down
I don't wanna be there when you hit the ground

So dont go away, say what you say
Say that you'll stay
Forever and a day ... In the time of my life
Cos I need more time, yes I need more time just to make things right

Damn my situation and the games I have to play
With all the things caught in my mind
Damn my education I can't find the words to say
With all the things caught in my mind

Me and you whats going on?
All we seem to know is how to show
The feelings that are wrong

Wow, one year since.
Didn't seem too long ago, but time flies.

like Damn.



Someday we'll know
