Lately .. been thinking stuff that is ahead of me, planning, and thinking about goals to accomplish. Actually even though I had been thinking of these kinda things a lot and never got around to taking much action .. I think its about time to do something. Lots of people had accomplished a few of their goals and working their way towards it .. now what are my own goals ? being 20 .. sounds like a big number .. somewhat means a lot to me too .. I'm forced to take more action forced to do more and plan more .. from myself !? can't really believe it .. even though I seem to be getting worst .. but for once I'm doing something different. Feels like time is running out .. I'm being pushed forward .. forced to go forward ..
Watched 300 ! It was a great movie .. Spartan !! .. they had no fear, fear no body, fear no consequences .. their vision concentrated on only a single goal. Kinda inspired me quite a bit .. at first it sounded absolutely ridiculous how 300 men can hold off millions .. but that really isn't the point and it is clear how they accomplished such a task. How did they fall ? Due to a traitor. Why didn't they retreat ?! sacrificed themselves to boost the moral of the country and inspired the greatest come-back. aah .. so bottom line .. the same old story .. to accomplish anything, it all goes down to .. courage, will, determination and sacrifice. You can't cheat anything .. therefore they didn't do anything to cheat either .. sword and a shield .. made me wonder a bit why they didn't use arrows to fight back and all those clever tactics that you could use .. but I think I understood.
Finals are up ! .. know of people already studying for it still feel so immature, lazy, and no self disicpline .. same old me Lets be a bit optimistic !? Life is all about the end results and whether or not you succeed .. what happens in between and how the process is done .. no one cares or am I wrong ?
[IF]
If you can keep your head when all about you
Are losing theirs and blaming it on you,
If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you
But make allowance for their doubting too,
If you can wait and not be tired by waiting,
Or being lied about, don't deal in lies,
Or being hated, don't give way to hating,
And yet don't look too good, nor talk too wise:
If you can dream--and not make dreams your master,
If you can think--and not make thoughts your aim;
If you can meet with Triumph and Disaster
And treat those two impostors just the same;
If you can bear to hear the truth you've spoken
Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools,
Or watch the things you gave your life to, broken,
And stoop and build 'em up with worn-out tools:
If you can make one heap of all your winnings
And risk it all on one turn of pitch-and-toss,
And lose, and start again at your beginnings
And never breath a word about your loss;
If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew
To serve your turn long after they are gone,
And so hold on when there is nothing in you
Except the Will which says to them: "Hold on!"
If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,
Or walk with kings--nor lose the common touch,
If neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you;
If all men count with you, but none too much,
If you can fill the unforgiving minute
With sixty seconds' worth of distance run,
Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it,
And--which is more--you'll be a Man, my son!
I'm updating again .. possibly a last update in a very long time,
because this kinda thing is just taking up time that could be spent
elsewhere. (Should I type this in chinese ?? .. naa my other page is
for that and it'll take even longer.) Anyways .. went sing k yesterday
w/ Delon, Chris, and Beson (edit: haha sorry man typo there, its Benson) .. along with his frds and gf too. Fun day,
even though I lost 40 bux at the casino but I got my utility back ..
overall was a great day. Really like 李聖傑's 手放開 .. its extremely old and
its the original version of Kary's 明知做戲but love the song a lot .. been
practicing the song a lot after K yesterday .. not on purpose but then
been listening to it a lot. Great stuff. Lyrics are great. Thought
a lot of things through lately .. and be4 I did that, had been
kind of a wacko. How things valued to me changed a great deal over
these few months .. now its time to get back on track and prioritize
things the way they are supposed to be. I guess one can say that I
finally found my ambitions and the motivation to push myself closer to
the limits .. whereas all along I've only be stuck at one point and
that's hardly doing anything. When am I gonna leave Vancouver ne ? ..
Stephy / celebs doesn't mean much to me now can't believe that either,
ha joks .. Cars ?! Can't really care less as you see my shark fin is
still not fixed .. kind of a waste of money considering I'll be leaving
in less than 2 yrs ?! maybe .. Cell phones .. yaa kinda still want a
cheap phone with a decent camera cus its useful in daily life .. feel a
bit tired ? or I've learned my limits and not concentrate on so many
things at once. Haha .. Alwin is trying to be smarter .. this sounds
kinda funny to myself too .. I didn't want to realize so many things
and just be simple. Too many ppl around me are planning far ahead,
dont' want to fall behind anymore. Kinda like a 180 degrees turn around
.. agree with things I used to disagree .. admire the different kinds
of people .. and wouldn't value things that .. .. ..
Hahaa .. a nice mv .. really nice song, kinda made me laugh a bit or smile
Back from Success Gala 2007 !! Since I went to the show with .. very very minimal expectations .. it didn't turn out too too bad aside from the lame stuff that they do every year and various performers .. however, the end was still good with Justin and Kary and Stephy. I've uploaded pics and vids on to the web !
yess they are a bit shaky but its not too bad, I'm surprised by the sound quality myself .. I thought they would be really bad .. but turned out to be alright. Aargh .. I'm again like 3-4 mins late, so I'm not going back into class .. this is so sick .. I'm late on a consistent basis, even when I've given myself 30 mins to drive from home .. then there's a ridiculous traffic !! anyhow, gotta study .. gd luck to those who still have midterms !!
