Seeing frenz left to go on Uni life is everything i ever dream of…… little did i know, it’s hard to leave everything behind…. and set course in a new environment.
UKM is my destination next…… Biomedicine, my course.
I learned to chill…. thankz to my frenz, not getting the course you wanted most doesn’t mean it’s the end of the world
with perseverance i expect, i can too achieve what’s good for my future.
Read thru a frenz’s blog the other day, touched by his story and although i am in the same class with him for the last 2 years, little did i know how small i am. I thought i can get thru smoothly, that i can outdone anyone in my class……
I was wrong. Someone told me that one shud work hard before exam but not after exam.
Being the odd one out is never a bad sign, but rather a sign of motivation for us to push forward
I hope i can do well in Uni……. that’s all i am asking….

I ran into a stranger as he passed by,
"Oh excuse me please" was my reply.
He said, "Please excuse me too;
I wasn't watching for you."
We were very polite, this stranger and I.
We went on our way and we said goodbye.
But at home a different story is told,
How we treat our loved ones, young and old.
Later that day, cooking the evening meal,
My son stood beside me very still.
When I turned, I nearly knocked him down.
"Move out of the way," I said with a frown.
He walked away, his little heart broken.
I didn't realize how harshly I'd spoken.
While I lay awake in bed,
God's still small voice came to me and said,
"While dealing with a stranger,
common courtesy
you use,
but the family you love, you seem to abuse.
Go and look on the kitchen floor,
You'll find some flowers there by the door.
Those are the flowers he brought for you.
He picked them himself: pink, yellow and blue.
He stood very quietly not to spoil the surprise,
you never saw the tears that filled his little eyes."
By this time, I felt very small,
And now my tears began to fall.
I quietly went and knelt by his bed;
"Wake up, little one, wake up," I said.
"Are these the flowers you picked for me?"
He smiled, "I found 'em, out by the tree.
I picked 'em because they're pretty like you.
I knew you'd like 'em, especially the blue."
I said, "Son, I'm very sorry for the way I acted today;
I shouldn't have yelled at you that way."
He said, "Oh, Mom, that's okay.
I love you anyway."
I said, "Son, I love you too,
and I do like the flowers, especially the blue."
FAMILY
Are you aware that if we died tomorrow, the company
that we are working for could easily replace us in
a matter of days.
But the family we left behind will feel the loss
for the rest of their lives.
And come to think of it, we pour ourselves more
into work than into our own family,
an unwise investment indeed,
don't you think?
So what is behind the story?
