Yet, I would rather say it is a cold and peaceful night.

The day isn't too hot as the other days, the sun doesn't seem too bright today. It actually rain for few hours, even though it was not a heavy one, but it dampens. It flushed away all the dullness, it actually bring refreshment into my day.

I woke up quite late today. The alarm clock is off his work because I got no class in this lovely Friday. Sitting in front of the laptop, I don't feel any stress in this day, surprisingly. I continue with the never-ending work-loafs. I feel myself was actually enjoying the moment. Not everyday I can feel like this, at least, I felt like this today.

Having the lunch, alone. Only myself. No one is disturbing me. The lunch I prepared for myself. I am so contented. I can cook too, at least, I think my fried rice tastes so wonderfully delicious in this afternoon.

I can smell the flowery-scent from each inch of my body, from head to the toe, from each strand of the hair. I felt so relax, after having a cold-water bath in this cold evening. This scent recited me, I have all the inspiration come all over to me, then here I come to post this up.

You will never feel this warm, when you get to drink the hot nice soup in this cold evening. I still can see the smoke coming out from the surface of the soup, the color is just - clear yet nourished. I have finished almost half of the pot. Yes, I am satisfied.

And now, after an hour drama refreshment, I am back again to the screen. The work is still loafing. But, this time I am facing it with higher courage, spirit and expectation.

Here comes Saturday, in 3 more hours. Happy weekend! =)
and why I cant watch Brazil and Portugal match tonight?

The time is chasing me

Leonardo da Vinci -
I love those who can smile in trouble, who can gather strength from distress, and grow brave by reflection. 'Tis the business of little minds to shrink, but they whose heart is firm, and whose conscience approve their conduct, will pursue their principles unto death.

No doubt, my friends would know, this semester seems more harsh and packed. Until I couldn't stop the train from continue choo-chooing. It has to rush from time to time. Until I got no little piece of time to be mine. When I was free, I looked at myself in the mirror. When I was free, I lie on my bed and flashed back the old-time memory. When I was free, I met my friends and laughed with them. When I was free, I played badminton twice a week. But now, I don't! I don't have even few minutes to rest my mind.

I do my assignments. One done, but two more come, two done, then quizzes come. Obviously, task-to-be-done in this semester seem never stop until the end of July, there comes final exam. How cruel is this world. Or I can say, how cruel could I treat myself in such a way. No. Or is it a training or a practice so that I can be a tough girl in the future? But, is there any other things else I missed when I was rushing in this choo-choo train?

I found myself getting weaker and weaker, in term of health. I found myself sleep in 2 o' clock in the morning everyday. I found myself have thicker eyebags and dark circles. I found myself feel tired easily. But, I could't stop the choo-choo.

I wanted to meet up my old friends and talk to them. I wanted to get enough sleeping. I wanted to go outdoor activities. I wanted to eat ice-cream. I wanted to go for steamboat buffet. But, the choo-choo doesn't want to stop. I got no enough time. Or I don't manage my time really well?

Slow down.
and everything you are chasing will come around and chase you. =)
Look at the people and things around you. When you slow down, you will find everything is colorful. And a small tiny thing can make you smile too.
Treat myself better is the best way to release the stress. Smile, Lim Joo Li!! =)
