Settling down

A friend of mine had this thought of creating a blog especially for newcomers to Christchurch. Those who have been staying in Christchurch contribute something to help newcomers to settle down. It is a good idea and it is also very nice of this friend to think about the newcomers. Even lynnx01 also commented to me that it is really nice. =)

But I haven't done much besides just changing the theme appearance and the blog layout. I really have no idea on what to say. Besides others have mentioned almost everything. Seriously, I am not the person to look for if you want new ideas. I can only comment on the blog appearance and how to make it look nicer. That's about it.

My ideas of helping new students settling down are probably too basic and common.

Meaningful

I have been following some of my friends' blog on blogger. Do you know that you can stalk people's blog from the dashboard in blogger? =P I love to read about what others wrote. And they do write meaningful stuff.

This particular friend blogged that we should have our times of ranting our emoness on blog. Yea, I so agree with that. But don't let yourself rant too much. I personally think ranting too much will cause some people not wanting to read your blog. The friend mentioned that other friends may get worried. I guess some friends do. I shall remember that.

Happy Chinese New Year

Happy Chinese New Year!!

Flat barren

Actually, the view of rain in the desert is quite nice.
So it doesn't matter if the land is flat barren or filled with flat grass and no trees, the view or place will look beautiful at some point. =)

Summer time

The first time, I travelled overseas, I only anticipated seeing big sized hotel buildings and staying in them while on vacation. But you know what, it means paying more $$. Not everyone can afford to pay so much for staying in a five star hotels. Some more, you cannot cook. I bet they count per head. So when I found out that there are such things as holiday home and cheaper, I was excited. It was like staying in a normal house. Some more, you can cook your own food. Now isn't that cheaper? I bet the prices of the houses per night are cheaper too.

Ok, back to my point, I was thinking of going for summer holidays in the Wales. It's somewhere where I have not been to. It will definitely be a blast. Seeing that I have got a budget, I shall stay in Wales Holiday Cottage. I should think that it is something like holiday home, only on a different word/name.
Oh, but I should go in a large group. Hmm.. Maybe I can ask a bunch of friends or shall I ask my cousins instead, since one of them will be in England soon enough. Hehe...

Plug

It is good to have people leaving comments for the opinions that I spilled out on the blog but somehow I do wonder what those people think who choose not to comment. They probably have more to say about, be it postive or negative. Sigh..

I found this image in my folder. I was actually in the engineering library trying to use my laptop and looking for plug. Instead of a NZ plug version, I found this version of plug. How surprising, right? I didn't have to use my adapter.

Explanation

Say we have free time, and if it so happens our boyfriend is free as well, it's alright to put our boyfriend first, and hang out with friends later. We understand it doesn't at all mean we love our friends lesser, it's just that we choose to be understanding, and just not selfish, because you know that's how YOU yourself about your boyfriend. You just want to spend all your time with him, you can't help it. And for sure, someone who hasn't been through it herself would never understand this.
And do you notice that when couples are dating, they spend all their time together, but when they get married, they MAKE time for their friends? It's like, the normal cycle of life. It happens to almost everyone. You need a break. But when you're mabuk cinta, it's different. You just want to be with that person every second of the day. Not to say that married people cannot be mabuk cinta, but you're secure, and you know you're coming back home to him, and he is coming back home to you. That's the difference.

So what's it with me copying these to all my blogs? Well, let's just say that I am doing someone a favour. =)

Hiatus

Hmm.. good to see that at least the comment is working. Hehehe. I think I shall take time off from internet for a time being. I think it's taking a lot of my time. I shall try to finish the story book I have been reading since 2 weeks ago. =)

Layout changed

I changed my layout blog again. Lynnx, can you comment now?

Choices

I just finished reading on this friend's post about choices. I agree with him. If I can look back and change my decision, my life wouldn't be like this today. Yes, there are some things that you would sure want to change but there are some things that you wouldn't want it to change. Like he said of what he does, I also let God's strength to help me do things right. I may not be perfect and that's my unique self. Humans can't change me and my personality. They can only influence me and I make the decision myself.
