Its been a great past few days hanging out with my
mum, my grandma and kaiting.. and the
yc Girlssssss!!!=) just love this kinda lifestyle, plenty of time to sit around, reflect and be a little laid back and not have anything urgent on my mind to attend to.
Of course it was wonderful meeting up with
kaiting--> been a long way hurh, since secondary sch and all those bah-kut-teh cheap names we give ourselves and notes flying around in classes. Ohmy those were the days in rgs... i Love heart to heart talks.... And stupid

Rosie has the blur look as ever, but has the potential to be the next Korean Model. HAHA. Missing Sarah, Huishan and Carene today. But im looking forward to the 28th at redhill!=D
Finished the
Art of Happinesss today and therefore i conclude, its one of the most inspiring books i have ever read. I swear that before i return it to the library tmr, im gonna take notes from that book. Isnt that impressive! Thats how much it has inspired me. There are so many points and arguments that i think i have to learn from and still ruminate over . For example, these few days, coincidentally over the time i digest the book, amazing life lessons has happened to me.
1) Yesterday i was hanging out with my mum at parkway parade. On the way while we took the bus there, my mum realised she left her checks at home (which was the main purpose why we were heading to citibank at parkway). So i got off the bus 2 stops later and walked back home to get the stuff. And of course, all these happening under the intolerable blazing afternoon sun at about 12 sharp. Fortunately, on my way out, a kind lady in her sixties offered me a lift to the bus stop out of no where! She just had me hop into her car, and she started telling me about herself.
She was on her way to volunteer at simei and teach crafts to the elderly at Blk 544 Kaki Bukit after that. She just fell recently and fractured her arm. Gotta have an wire inserted to support her humerus.
This is a sign! That, one, i have to go back to visit the elderly. And two, take better care of my grandma, cos she just a had a little fall recently. Nothing serious happened to her, but I could be more patient when i talk to her, or make the effort to spend time with her more. Maybe I could go for walks with her ( but very early at 6 am =S)
2) Today on my way back after a great get together with other 5 of the interns over Tiantian steamboat and dessert after at Ah Chews Dessert House, I was waiting for bus 14 at tanah merah mrt. This girl came up to me, asked to borrow my hp in a frantic tone. Turns out her work at changi airport dragged and she missed the last train home. She couldn contact her family and she was heading to a frens place instead to stay over. Keeping the teachings in the book in mind, I took on a more friendly, empathetic note to her. Though initial strangers, we struck up an open conversation easily, perhaps because of that. It was brief over the bus ride, but it felt nice being able to share some of her troubles at that point of time and perhaps ease her anxiety a little. Exactly congruent with what the books preaches: All of us human beings are the same. Based on this,we should approach all others with the mindset that everyone of us are the same human and all of us just wants to feel happy ultimately. This lousy summary of mine definitely does not do any justice to the wealth of knowledge in the book, but I just wanna stress that i have found so much relevance between the book and my daily life.
Two strangers, Anna and Lyana, brief, but they made a little impact in my life.
