AssTwo:)


Alright, I know today is a gift, that's why it's called "PRESENT."
But sometimes u just can't help yourself from missing the past....
Okay, I admit I can't get over it.
I love the way pictures paint a thousand words,
I love to find old pictures, unintentionally :)
These little pictures reminded me a lot of things...
I remember the green shirt I wear in the pic,
I remember why Ye Qi is still in her uniform.
I remember that yellow En Ning's classic tee,
and I will never forget Henry and Wijoyo who are always by my side :)
and I guess that was one in a million times Mandy willing to take picture, finally :D
I miss u guys so much :')
And I remember the one and only photo booth in Penang,
I gotta go take some pictures whenever I am in Prangin Mall,
and thank you my friends,
for your willingness to take picture with me ^^
Otherwise I wouldn't have these memories.

The Media Monster

Okay, so after high school we go to college.
Why do we go to college?
'Cause everybody else does?
I believe the purpose of college is to prepare us with the knowledge we need on a specific area which we will study for 4 years and then with that knowledge we are able to go out society and work, and improve, and improve, and so it goes..........

I grew up telling people that I wanted to be an Engineer,
Yes, engineer... I did not even know what the heck is that.
Soon Dad told me that I don't have to be an Engineer to build houses like he does.
So my Dad is not an Engineer nor a Architect, he is a businessman.
He is a developer, he invests and he earns big bucks.
So Daddy told me that I don't have to build houses myself,
I can learn how to manage business and let other people do the construction work.
But wait.. Management? I guess I am not that interested in Business.

Then my interest in media grew, well a lot of people do.
Who does not like media? Celebrities, fame, gossip, and lots of money.
But the truth is media is anything but those.
Going to college, I've learned a lot of harsh facts.
The fact that media won't easily get you a job,
the fact that media is not about fame,
the fact that there are very few minorities in the media today,
and the fact that media is not fun.
I used to think that the media represents the people.
but the truth is the media manipulates the people.
The media is no longer honest with its content.
I studied media because I was not so interested in business,
but now I learned media is a business.
Like Dr.Hale often said, what matters is "did the cash register ring today?"
Although I hate the harsh truth, but that is the truth anyway.
The news no longer deliver what the people need to know,
it's all about ratings, ratings, and ratings.
So I come to college to learn all these things.
I wonder how are we going to learn so much negativity about it and still love the job.

Little Girl Who Knows It All

A cute baby girl pointed on a high-chair,
grandma laughed : "Oh, look! She knows that's her chair."
A cute baby boy handed me a chopstick,
"What a smart boy, how adorable~"

I miss being a little girl,
when parents couldn't stop tellin' me that I am the best,
when every step I took works like magic,
when every single thing I learned earns a reward,
when knowing what I want is easy,
when dream used to be unlimited,
when stars used to shine so bright,
when I fell asleep every night knowing that tomorrow was going to be..
a beautiful day.

I know there is no way to stop the clock from ticking,
Although I hate to watch sunset,
the sun will rise anyway.
Now everything never seems enough,
when you tried too hard to make your parents proud,
when you are stuck and don't know where to go,
when all roads seem to lead you to dead end.
You stopped.

I do not wish for a time machine,
I will not wish to go back in time,
I know it's not easy to be possible,
I believe there is something waiting,
waiting for us to see,
in every stage of life.
But,
thinking about tomorrow...
is just...
scary.
