PISCES WOMAN

She likes to be in a dream world than to be in reality. She is weakand sensitive when it's come to "Love". She can cry if her bestfriend is breaking up, and she can be over excited when her friend gets a new boy friend who is a good looking and rich even it isnothing concerned her at all. You might be surprise to see that sheis shy just because she is in love. More or less it will be inPisces woman. She loves small animal and gifted in traininganimals.
She has sixth senses and she can guess what will happen next, it'sher nature. Even she has a good sixth senses, she can not pick orforeseen her own choice of lover. She can not tell if she meet asincere guy or a one night stand guy.
She likes to buy and pick her own cloths. She likes to dress cuteand be cute. Pisces woman tend to be a good looking woman and shehas a nice skin. Her hands and feet are small and soft. Pisceswoman loves to shop for shoes as if she collects them. She is a hotlady that everyone wants her. Whether she has a man in her life ornot , she will never try to over powered any man. It's not even inher thought.
She thinks man can handle things better, and she will make her manfeel that way. She is an easy going person, so being with her iseasy. She is a confident woman and likes to make people who staywith her happy. She knows how to please and how to comfort a man.If something is wrong, she will try to make other people beliefthat it's must be because of someone else, not because of her loveone. She will not push her man to be ambition but to make him feellike he should be happy with the way he is now. She is happy withyou for what you are now.
A Pisces woman , if she has a bad childhood, she will alwaysremember it and it will make her a very unhappy person. She willpity herself and feel sorry for herself. She tends to hurt herselfwith out knowing it and so vulnerable to drugs (real drugs or justsleeping pills). She has many choices and you can never tell whichpath she going to take. If you love her , then hold her tightbecause she never knows why she did what she did or what she willdo next.
A complex character. You may think she is a shy innocent type andcan not hurt anyone, then you are wrong. You might think she is afragile person who needs protection, wrong again. She has beenthrough a lot, a tough cookie. She is a dreamer and love the word"Love", so she is the type who will buy gift for anyone for anyoccasion, especially if it is a gift for wedding or an anniversaryeven for someone who she does not know so well.
Be very careful if fall in love with Pisces woman. She can be atotal different person before and after. She can be an angle beforeand later a witch, but everyone is not perfect, right? She will besoft and gentle most of the time, so not to worry. She is emotionaland extremely sensitive when she frequently got hurt. She is thetype who can cry her heart out.
She can have a secret fear inside, when she says she does not needanyone. She badly needs someone to protect her, but sometimes shecan hide that feeling by being stubborn. She likes to hide hershyness and her weakness from her enemy. She does not like tofollow any fixed rules. She can be a good housewife if you know howto handle her.
Many men will ask to marry her because she is a 100% woman. If she wants to be sweet, she is a real angles.

When Tomorrow Starts Without Me

When tomorrow starts without me, and I'm not there to see,
If the sun should rise and find your eyes, all filled with tears for me,
I wish so much you wouldn't cry, the way you did today,
While thinking of the many things we didn't get to say.
I know how much you love me, as much as I love you,
And each time that you think of me, I know you'll miss me too.
But when tomorrow starts without me, please try to understand,
That an angel came and called my name and took me by the hand.
And said my place was ready in Heaven far above,
And that I'd have to leave behind, all those things I dearly love.
But as I turned to walk away, a tear fell from my eye,
For all my life, I'd always thought, I didn't want to die.
I had so much to live for, so much yet to do,
It seemed almost impossible, that I was leaving you.
I thought of all the yesterdays, the good ones and the bad,
I thought of all the love we shared, and all the fun we had.
If I could relive yesterday, just even for a while,
I'd say goodbye and kiss you, and maybe see you smile.
But then I fully realized, that could never be,
For emptiness and memories, would take the place of me.
And when I thought of worldly things, I might miss come tomorrow,
I thought of you, and when I did, my heart was filled with sorrow.
But when I walked through Heaven's gates, I felt so much at home.
When God looked down and smiled at me, from his great golden throne.
He said, "This is eternity, and all I've promised you.
Today your life on Earth is past, and here it starts anew".
"I promise no tomorrow, but today will always last,
And since each day's the same day, there's no longing for the past".
"But you have been so faithful, so trusting and so true,
Though there were times you did some things, you know you shouldn't do".
"But you have been forgiven, and now at last you're free,
So won't you take my hand now and share My life with Me".
So when tomorrow starts without me, don't think we're far apart,
For every time you think of me, I'm right here in your heart.

Deattachement and attachment

2006-08-12T07:10:00.000-07:00

Ever heard of this philosophy?
The more attached you are to something, the more likely you will lose it.
The more dettached you are from something, the more likely you will get it.

I thought about this the whole day, and realised.
When you are attached to something, you try hard. Sometimes, a bit too hard.
When you are dettached, you try, but not very hard, you know you can live without it. Somehow, at the end of the day you may just get the job/person/whatever it is you want.

So, in life,
TRY HARD.
but never,
try TOO hard.

There should always be a balance in everything isn't it?

Following the instructions.

Teachers, be thankful for your student's innovation!

And she really understood the concept.

Think out of the box =)

Today is the 9th of August.
It's our 41st birthday for Singapore.

In 1965, on this very day.
Our country, our home,
Singapore gained its independence.

We were left to fend for ourselves after the seperation with Malaysia.
We are a small land.
Our forefathers strived throughout the years to establish our country, where we call home.

What do you remember about National day?
Is it the fireworks and the parade?
Or do you actually commemerate the sweat and blood put in by our forefathers to make all this possible?

Our last National Day parade at the Singapore Outdoor Stadium.

Fly high, Singapore.

Soar.

WORLD CUP version TWO.
Argentina lost to Germany.

hmmz.
Germany won because of home ground advantage?
or was it because Argentina's back up goalie isn't up to standard?
or was it because Germany's keeper was just way on luck?

It's really a turn-off to know that I will never get to see the match I've been looking earnestly to:
BRAZIL VS ARGENTINA.

top 8's are up!

People come and go in all our lives, even the closest people around us like our family members, will leave us one day. Often, because of our busy schedule, we neglect our elders who are taking care of us, every single day, and taking them for granted.
They have much to say, many interesting adventures from their youth to tell us, but yet, we were never there to listen.
Perhaps, sometimes, in the rush of everything, we should, take a step back and stop for awhile, and just look around us, to see who unconditionally loved us, caring for us, all the time.

Sometimes, a gesture of appreciation or love, can mean nothing much to you, but it may mean the world to your loved ones.

Treasure what you have, before it’s all too late. You would not want to carry an eternal regret with you throughout your life journey, would you?

ENGLAND VS EUCADOUR
1 - 0

hmmz.
Despite England players being said as unfit and not up to their usual standard, they still managed to get a victory over Eucadour.

It's saddening that both Asian countries are no longer in the run for the prestigous World Cup.

22 men, 2 coaches, 1 ball, 1 World Cup
Every 4 years.

Or should I say the whole world is chasing after the Cup too?
With sleepless nights of watching the live telecast of the matches?

2006-06-23T06:47:00.000-07:00

sometimes.
we should stop.
and look around us.

and open our eyes.

who noes.
the person for u.
may be right in front of u.
all these while.

happiness?

2006-06-22T06:20:00.000-07:00

jus suddenly wondered.
why are we so far from happiness.

why is it that poor ppl tell themselves: i'll be happy, when im rich. becos then i wun have to worry about money.
why is it that rich ppl tell themselves: i'll be happy when i dun have so much money, cos then i wun have to worry about getting burglared.
why is it that top notched ppl tell themselves: if i had known, i wouldnt have climbed so high, cos then i wun have to worry bout falling.
why is it that ppl at the bottom tell themselves: i'll be happy if im one of the top notched ppl, cos its all so pretiguos and ppl respect you. while now no one respects me.

we are alwaes asking for more.
when we are given wad we asked for, we will still be unhappy.
why?
becos we're never contented.
never.
and i sae never becos truly ask urself:
do u have nothing to complain about?
have u ever asked for something, but after u are given that something, u start to find urself unhappy all over again?
why is it that we're never contented?

ppl go to the temple/church weeks after weeks, years after years.
no matter wad religion, even free thinkers, they pray for happiness.
but why is it we still go back every single year being unhappy?
why?
is it only the contentment in our hearts are so hard to fill?
or is it something more?

happiness sounds so simple.
for millions of years, humans have been after happiness.
chasing after it.
endlessly. not stopping.
but have we caught up with it?
no.
we are not even near.

alot of wise quotes saes that happiness is simple.
it does not require complicated things,
but jus a simple contentment.
although they sae that, happiness is in reach.
but, are they even happy themselves?

they should give an award.
to the first person that finds true happiness.
that is content with wadeva they have.

i once heard a story:
this man, jus bought a pair of new shoes with his first salary. he wore it proudly down the streets, but a short while later, the shoe broke into half. he stood barefooted on the snowy path. and looked at the shoe. he was very upset. he cursed, he sweared, then feeling very dejected, he walked back to his home.
on the way home, he walked by many beggars. they were freezing in the snow, with an empty bowl held by their boney outstretched hands. he walked to the end of the alley and there was a beggar, who was barefooted. His feet were bluish, as though it was frozen.
the man walked home, and sat down in front of the fireplace and thought:
"why am i upset, becos my new shoe is torn? shouldnt i at least be happy that i have shoes? instead of being so dejected here? that beggar doesnt even have shoes on his feet. while that is jus another pair of my shoes."
after that, he walked out of the house and gave the beggar his old pair of shoe.
he asked the beggar:
"are u happy, sir?"
"happy bout wad my son? "
"happy bout ur life, of course."
"yes, i am."
"but why? "
"becos im contented."
"but u dun even have shoes on ur feet. and ur living conditions are so harsh."
"but at least im alive. unlike the patients in the hospital, who cant even stae alive even if they want to."
"thank you."

mus we alwaes compare to convince ourselves that we're happy?
can we not compare, and be contented on our own accord?

if i continue posting, it'll come to no end.
becos no one knows the answer to happiness.
the key to happiness is still lost.
despite many sayings on it.

i shall stop here.

i hope u ppl can find ur happiness.
soon.
in this lifetime.
true happiness.
is precious.

happiness does not rely on others.
happiness is based on oneself.

remember.
