where thoughts materialise.

So we're into the sixth version of my blog after the last version hung around for a year or so.

Now, a bit of info on this image. This photo was taken one lovely spring afternoon, featuring the iconic Old Well from the UNC Chapel Hill campus. I would like to think of this image as a tribute to my time in UNC Chapel Hill, the awesome friends I made and the memories I now hold dear.

A milestone in my life indeed.

I've dropped the tagboard cos its useless and taking eons to load. But thanks to Angela who helped me set it up, I still do like and will miss the pink interface.

So yeah, it's the sixth one you fellas!

Yours.

Once again, my days begin to blur into each other. Sunny afternoons merge into each other and dusks gently break into dawns.

As Joseph aptly puts it, everyday's like Sunday.

And I'm not complaining at all. Life's been great to me. Well, the only thing irking me of course would be Martha Steward's release. I thought we had an agreement that she would be released the same week I ORD? Now she gets the taste of civillian life 19 days earlier than I do.

As quickly as the dust is stirred, it settles at an equally comforting pace. The pieces remain the same, life still has a semblance of what it used to be like. The only difference now is how these pieces are rearranged, displaced. And all it takes is a little getting used to.

And when it comes to an event as huge as quietly losing someone I love, everything else seem to pale and become so trivial in comparison to its magnitude. Things that used to bother me didn't really seem to matter anymore, I ain't got no time for petty little things in life.

And suddenly, people who harp on these frivolous and measly insignificance of life irk me. It simply deems them childish and exemplifying the most disgreeable traits of our time. Life, as I mentioned before, takes on a whole new perspective.

It becomes evidently clear now what I want and need in life. Things that are important to me emerges starkingly eminent. Things like family, friends and a good education.
You have to know yourself, and do what you really want. Someone said this to me today. And I thank you for that.

Which brings me to my point. I feel I am unfittingly blessed, even in the situation that I am in now.

I am blessed with such a loving family who truly cares and love each other with the sincerest of hearts.

I am blessed with so many friends who'll stick with me no matter what. I feel no arrogance when I say that while others are blessed with a handful, I am unfittingly blessed with hordes. No nonsense, beyond superficiality. You guys know who you are.

I am blessed that, in this juncture of my life, events have made me realize what I really want to pursue and how lucky I am to be in the midst of all these.
Winners are simply willing to do what losers won't. Powerful.

And though I am going through the most trying phase of my life so far, Life has convinced me that nothing can ever be too bad or lousy. Take a deep breath and step back a little, life's worth living. Something beautiful and precious has come out of this, and I would always remember this as a defining moment of my life.
