Dear bloggers,
i know i havent updated my blog for ages long, i am here today free because my boyfriend went to kl with his mum for an errand. Eventually, i am a free bird today, well, not exactly free but i get to do all the house chores before i get to sit down now and enjoy some biscuits while writing my blog.
Lately, life has been good enough that i am enjoying my rest of the break with my boyfriend because after the school reopen, this chance will be really rare. I get to make some mooncakes last week with his mum. I actually like cooking and of course, this will be great if someone can teach me how to cook propely. XD i fried a fish yesterday not knowing it is frozen for too long and it doesn't get enough time to defroze= partly cooked fish. And you know what? MY BOYFRIEND HAS BOUGHT HIS PARTNER HOME TO TASTE MY DISHES! COOL! >.> The man says my cooking is quite reasonable, my boyfriend in the other hand, keeps on ranting. Phew~ Nevertheless he confessed to me that he is just being humble to not praise his own girlfriend in front of his friends. BLEH! anyway, he is totally against what i like to eat: spaghetti, soup, etc. T.T we better end up in a restaurant next time then.
Sides, the other news is my boyfriend was telling me that we are going to engage after my graduation. O.O! i'm like:what?! well, it isn't that i am not ready to spend the rest of my life with him, but it sounds unbelievable that i am about to get engage to people. For real? I don't know.
I do like his idea for wanted to spend the rest of the life with me and of course, counted me into his life. phew~ sometimes, i just don't know what else i am expecting really.
Oh Oh, btw, my parents finally knew that i have a boyfriend and they are okay with it. Of course, some of my other relatives too. ~.~ i just dislike people trying to lurk things out from the people surrounding me but not directly to my face. Anyway, i'll handle it i know.
Adios people, i'll update you guys real soon. ^-^

Different Expectation
Dear Bloggers,
I know i haven't write a single word for ages long. Well, this is it, i'm now in Dunedin for three weeks break, bought a perfume and necklace different from what i wanted from my wishlist. O.o then, my future phone target has changed. XD yeah, what you expect is not what you got right? or maybe it is the natural extinct of female in my blood? :P
it is late here already in Dunedin, be back in two to three days. Can't wait to see my boyfriend. -sigh- missed him a lot and really glad he texted and called me though it is expensive to call me in New Zealand from Malaysia. :P i can barely wait for our 1 year anniversary, just notice it is less than 60 days from now. I still wondering what should i buy for him...hmmm... pounding the 'X' i saw from the Kmart... maybe it is a good present afterall? no idea. Should think later then.
gonna sleep for real, goodnight fella~

A Long Break (一个长的假期)
Hey Dear Bloggy,
I am having one long break for almost four months. Currently enjoying my holiday in Sibu at my boyfriend's hometown. Seems like i'm getting used with the life in here. Nevertheless, something huge have happened during the time despite of how much i love to stay in Sibu, i had to leave on the end of the month back to my hometown in Sandakan.
During the time, my sister and I have been into a fight and now a cold war. She doesn't like the fact that i went to Sibu, Sarawak without telling her. Then due to some conversation on facebook between my godsister and her, the condition has turned sour. I do not expect that to happen but well, sometimes, there is a time where we can't decide our choice and i still wanted to be with him.
Sometimes i wonder, for so much i give, if it is all worth it? After all, the different surroundings the different environment and culture, I know it is a huge thing to give for me but i still like him.
As for my sister, i really hope we get sorted out soon, i don't really want to be in a fight with her. I know she always want the best for me but in a meanwhile, i am too wanted to find the best of my life. As for my godsister, i hope she doesn't feel sorry for whatever that had happened on facebook. -sigh- I don't like argument and i never know how to sort out one, anyway, wish me luck for the remaining days in Sibu then.

Dear bloggers, I know i haven't updated my blogs for some times,
well, I'm being lazy lately or forgetful or I don't know. Just simply not into mood to write anything.
So my room mate reminded me that the last time i posted is like 2-3 weeks ago. Lmao~ So i finally decided to write again. So a lot had happened for this couple of weeks. Argument with Boston, My sister's promise, Some updates here and there.
I'll start with the first one: Argument with Boston
I know how we have been different, in term of what to expect in life, what our aims and backgrounds etc.
But from the day I say Yes till today, i have never change my mind on my decision on him.
How I promised to take the risk and give a last try.
What I really hope is, he will not give up on our relationship because I won't.
I am quite certain with my decision and I know what I want.
Since i have decided in the beginning, there is not a reason for me to give back because I have already gave my heart away.
So, our argument is on the different concept we had.
How he has made up his mind of not getting married any soon, or give birth or anything because he wanted to focus on his future and works.
I get his point and it wasn't me the one who wanted to plan for marriage that early in the first place, it is his idea that i'm trying to compromise with.
So when he says he has changed his mind and the change of plan, It doesn't really hurt me that much.
What really upset me is his assumption on how we should give each other a chance and if it is not going to work, someone going to tell and we are going to quit.
Plus how he has wanted me to stop calling each other hubby and wifey for this second onwards.
TBH, it is his ideas as well to make me get used to call him with the hubby thingy but now he is the one who wanted to call it a stop, so, can you understand how complicated my feelings were that time?
I cried for the whole night, can't even pretend to be okay in front of my friend because for a while, i lost my mind and not knowing what am i doing and what i supposed to do.
And for a record, I didn't sleep the whole night as well. I know how he is stressed with his work lately, I can understand that but that is not a way how we should deal with problems and because i cared, i requested a talk with him.
To make things clear and to fix things right. After a day, we managed to talk and collaborated. Then we got back together. From this lesson, it actually build an understanding between us both, like what to expect and what to avoid.
I have always been a woman who isn't greedy. I just hope for him to keep me at his side and i'm more than happy actually. But well, things can be more complicated that yes and no, isn't it?
Nevertheless, i still want to make it works between us because I know for whatever reason, i wanted to be at his side, and i know he will always be by my side.
Other people may not be able to understand our ways to communicate and get along with in a relationship, but i believe different people have different pattern to show that they care.
For now, i just wanted to grip tight to what i have and spend it like there is no tomorrow. Appreciate what we have and say out what we really feel for each other.
Second one: Promise from my sister
Well~ this is like a good news for me! My sister, Emily has decided to get me a camera~!
Not something like DSLR camera but something similar to that.
Some sort of beginner use camera for me. She says it is going to be my 21st birthday + graduation gift! <3 <3 <3
How i love to receive such a lovely gift!
Though 21st birthday has passed like 1 year more ago, but well who cares really? LOL!~
Let me show you the picture of the camera she has decided to buy for me. :D
It is a Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ35~
I have no idea if it is good or not, maybe i'll show you guys with some pictures i took after i got the camera. <3
Can't wait! It is going to be the best gift ever~
Third one: Is a mixture of here and there
So my room mate's house maid has decided to go back to her hometown today, and because it is far in Philippines i asked her to help me to deliver something to one of my besties, recy in Philippines, this is going to be cool because i guess i have never buy her anything before and the only thing i get to send to her before is a postcard.
~.~ I know.
Kinda Lame.
Well, i can't help it, it is expensive to send stuff to other countries and i am poor jobless student who are still depending on study loan for government and fund from Bos. O.o
So, since she loves me so, i know she won't mind. <3
Can't wait to see if she likes it or not. LOL!
I haven't been able to talk to my kitty as well.
DX she has been busy lately and i know i can't disturb her either. -
sigh- and baybee of course, busy as well.
COOL~ No one is free around me except me?!
Ops
pardon me?
Me?
Free?
LMAO~
And the rest is about Bos being busy with work for 10 days from now, and won't have the time for me.
So after the 10 days, I will be stuck in a camp for 5 days with no telephone line.
GREAT.
AWESOME.
>.> SHUT UP.
Auw, i really missed him and i wanted to see him soon.
-sigh-
It will be two months already since i last see him in February.
-sigh-
How i missed it.
~.~
That's all for now, i am being lazy already. Shall update with bilingual again next post i hope.

半年过去了
不经不觉， 我们都在一起六个月
在这半年里，虽然我们聚少离多
可是，我还是觉得不一样
他，带了我去一个我不知道的世界
他，给了我不一样的感觉
比起初恋的感觉
多了一份真实，多了一份成熟
比起初恋的感觉
少了一点梦幻，少了一点紧张
却多了一份安定，多了一点平凡
这段感情带了我来到了真实的世界
虽然没有拉曼 没有激情 没有承诺
但是我还是想再次的赌一次
赌我对男人的信任，赌我放进100%的感情
远距离的爱情故事
真的很不简单
要对彼此信任，坚持的走下去
真的不简单
想见面时却被距离隔开了
就是为了一个约定和感觉而走下去
有时我会觉得没有安全感
有时我根本不能够确定他在想什么
不能看到表情，只能靠语气来断定真的很难
我很少会问起他的东西
一方面，我不想让他觉得我在调查他
再来，我觉得没必要
他想告诉你，自己会讲
不想讲的，逼他也没用
所以，还是当个不说话的女人好
我是个没有自信，缺少安全感的女人
虽然知道她加入了他在书面子
知道他们有联络
可是，我从没问过他
因为，在一段感情
我觉得猜疑是很累的
我选择闭嘴是因为我想相信他
在这半年内
我们总共吵了两次 只说印象深刻的
第一次，
在他住的家，
我永远永远都会记得的
因为从来没有一个人会站在门口瞪着我
不给我进去，到了晚上还要我把全部讯息，电话来电时间开来给他看
他的不信任，其实当晚让我很心冷
可是因为爱，我选择了解释还有谅解
努力的把不开心吞进肚子
只希望他懂还有不要误解我
第二次
是在手机
为了一部烂电脑
其实过了那件事后
我没有很想保留它
因为，意义不一样了
它让我想起他的责骂
我不是个贪钱的女人 虽然是说气话 可是也很hurt
理解了为什么最近他如何这么的暴躁后
我选择了道歉
结果到了傍晚 事情才解决
那天晚上他说 他不想被什么控制
我说了： 你是自由的 我不会控制，也控制不了
我从来就没有想到这样的去珍惜，还有去在意一个人时 会变成‘控制’
所以，当晚，我学习了退下 少一点在乎 把事情看开
其实，作为一个女人，
我真的没有很多的要求
我没有想要买名牌住好的
我从不去夜店
我没抽烟
我少说粗口（有说的也是比较高级的，下流低级的粗口，说了降低我的人格）
我没有乱发脾气，乱跟男人混，没有当花痴
该说的我都说，该做的我也有做
不该说的我从不乱说
我只希望他会珍惜我，珍惜我们的感情
在这半年内
他也带了很多欢乐給我
当他背着我在后面时
我觉得我就是全世界最幸福的女人
当我在前一晚还没飞回亚庇哭着时
他抱着哄我时 是我听过最动听的声音
当他笨笨的站在门外看着我带着行李出来时
是我最紧张最紧张的时刻
当他从我的碗里偷走我最爱吃的海鲜 还瞪我说: 你敏感，不可以吃时
我比有的吃海鲜更快乐
还有很多很多的情节我没办法一一数出
可是感谢有你，然我重获信心
感谢你爱我
Sorry dear bloggers, i have decided to write this in Mandarin, instead of the normal English-Mandarin version I usually do. I might going to update this in English later when I feel so.

Yesterday it was 19th of March 2011,
it is the day when the moon at its nearest distance with the Earth.
I have yet to see a huge moon last night, but the moon somehow has appeared different than the usual moon i see.
It has been surrounded with a white circle like a huge donut.
Somehow it looks warm and mysterious just like how i wanted it to be.
I couldn't take a picture using my cellphone because I tried but it wasn't clear, so instead, i got this picture similar to the image of the moon i saw last night to share with you guys.
I hope you didn't mind though.
Well back to the moon, well, looking at it, you feel sole and deserted, in a way the moon is alone, always alone but it is doing it best to show you it is special.
See the circle~ it is gorgeous!
昨天是三月十九日
是月球在二十年里最接近地球的一天
看过去的月球就像被一层的白光包围着
看起来很温柔很神秘，就如我想象中一样
电话里的相机没办法吧月球还有白光拍下
害我只好从网上找来一幅差不多一样的
好让我能够跟你们分享我昨晚看到的月亮
看过去的月亮很孤单，独立，自闭
可是却没放弃过的为人们带来惊喜
看下~是不是很美呢!

On 11th of March, an earthquake has hit upon the land of the risen sun.....My condolences to those who have suffered and their lost during this disaster. Be strong and keep believing, our thoughts and prayers are always with you.
Hereby, i would also like to share an article translated by Jun Shiomitsu which has been shared frequently by people on facebook. I find it very inspiring and warm-hearted. So i decided to share it in my blog and i hope through this, people who reads it will learn a lesson on how civilized the Japanese are during a hard time like this.

Japanese people have been very open on Twitter about their experiences following the quake. These snippets of what moved them and touched them during these very trying times are heart-warming. I have attempted a rough translation on some of them so that you can have a read.
Please continue to pray for the people in Japan.
I hope these mini-stories will bring strength and encouragement to my friends and family in Japan by letting them know that, not only does the world sympathize with them, it looks up to them in admiration! My thoughts are with you.
"The Lord bless you and keep you; the Lord make His face to shine on you and be gracious unto you; the Lord turn His face toward you and give you peace." (The Holy Bible)

ディズニーランドでは、ショップのお菓子なども配給された。ちょっと派手目な女子高生たちが必要以上にたくさんもらってて「何だ？」って一瞬思ったけど、その後その子たちが、避難所の子供たちにお菓子を配っていたところ見て感動。子供連れは動けない状況だったから、本当にありがたい心配りだった
At Tokyo Disneyland:
Tokyo Disneyland was handing out its shops’ food and drinks for free to the stranded people nearby. I saw a bunch of snobby looking highschool girls walking away with large portions of it and initially though “What the …” But I later I found out they were taking them to the families with little children at emergency evacuation areas. Very perceptive of them, and a very kind thing to do indeed.

Message from the UN
Secretary General Ban Ki Moon: “Japan is one of (the UN’s) most generous and strongest benefactors, coming to the assistance of those in need the world over. In that spirit, the United Nations stands by the people of Japan and we will do anything and everything we can at this very difficult time.” I was moved at his words. What better example that good things happen to those who do good.
* 渋滞した交差点での出来事

一回の青信号で１台しか前に進めないなんてザラだったけど、誰もが譲り合い穏やかに運転している姿に感動した。複雑な交差点で交通が５分以上完全マヒするシーンもあったけど、１０時間の間お礼以外のクラクションの音を耳にしなかった。恐怖と同時に心温まる時間で、日本がますます好きになった。
At a congested downtown intersection …
Cars were moving at the rate of maybe one every green light, but everyone was letting each other go first with a warm look and a smile. At a complicated intersection, the traffic was at a complete standstill for 5 minutes, but I listened for 10 minutes and didn’t hear a single beep or honk except for an occasional one thanking someone for giving way. It was a terrifying day, but scenes like this warmed me and made me love my country even more.

During the earthquake
We’ve all been trained to immediately open the doors and establish an escape route when there is an earthquake. In the middle of the quake while the building was shaking crazily and things falling everywhere, a man made his way to the entrance and held it open. Honestly, the chandelier could have crashed down any minute … that was a brave man!

Thank you Tokyo Disney Sea
My daughter who was staying at DisneySea just made it back home! Many, many thanks to the staff who worked very hard in the cold with ready smiles that made her to feel safe and secure during the entire night. They brought her food, drinks, snacks, heating pads, and anything necessary to ensure she was comfortable and secure throughout her stay. I was touched by the Disney staff’s warmth and hospitality. Thank you so much!

この地震が、きっかけになって、失いかけていた日本人本来の良さが戒間見れた気がする。犯罪はする様子はなく、助け合い、律儀、紳士的。普段日本人は冷たい人が多い…。って個人的に感じてるんだけど、多くの人が今回で「絆」を取り戻しつつあるように見えて、それがなんか感動して、泣けてくる。
Reminded of the goodness of the Japanese people
This earthquake has reminded me of that Japanese goodness that had recently become harder and harder to see. Today I see no crime or looting: I am reminded once again of the good Japanese spirit of helping one another, of propriety, and of gentleness. I had recently begun to regard my modern countrymen as cold people … but this earthquake has revived and given back to all of us the spirit of “kizuna” (bond, trust, sharing, the human connection). I am very touched. I am brought to tears.

Card board boxes, Thank you!
It was cold and I was getting very weary waiting forever for the train to come. Some homeless people saw me, gave me some of their own cardboard boxes and saying “you’ll be warmer if you sit on these!” I have always walked by homeless people pretending I didn’t see them, and yet here they were offering me warmth. Such warm people.

What foreigners are saying about Japanese people
At a supermarket where everything was scattered everywhere over the floors, shoppers were helping pick them up and putting them back neatly on the shelves before quietly moving into line to wait to pay for them. On the totally jam-packed first train after the quake, an elderly man gave up his seat for a pregnant woman. Foreigners have told me they are amazed witnessing sights like these. I do believe they actually saw what they said they saw. Japan is truly amazing.

Information network this time around
The information sharing efforts on Twitter or USTREAM, together with the quality of coverage and crucial updates provided by the mass media this time around is incomparable to what we got during the Kobe earthquake. I am deeply impressed by Japan’s successful efforts and ability to put to practice lessons learnt from past tragedies.

BBC Reports
The words of BBC’s reports are so moving they make me cry. They were praising us with words of admiration! “One of the worst earthquakes in recorded history has hit the world’s most well-prepared, well-trained nations. The strength of its government and its people are put to the test. While there have been casualties, in no other country could the government and the people have worked together in such an accurate and coordinated way in the face of such tragedy. The Japanese people have shown their cultural ability to remain calm in the face of adversity.”

A little story about Papa
We live in an area that was not directly hit. When my father came downstairs and heard the news saying that our area had begun allocating electricity to the hard-hit areas, he quietly led by example, turning off the power around the house and pulling the plugs out of their sockets. I was touched. He usually NEVER turns off the lights or the AC or the TV or anything!

The bakery lady
There was a small bread shop on the street I take to go to school. It has long been out of business. But last night, I saw the old lady of the shop giving people her handmade bread for free. It was a heart-warming sight. She, like everyone else, was doing what she could to help people in a time of need. Tokyo isn’t that bad afterall!

Japan is a wonderful nation!
Both the government and the people, everyone is helping one another today. There are truck drivers helping evacuees move. I even heard that the “yakuza” (gangsters, organized crime groups) are helping to direct traffic in the Tohoku region! There have been many recent developments that have made me lose my sense of pride in my country, but not anymore. Japan is an amazing place! I’m just simply touched. Go Japan!

Twitter is amazing!
The information shared to us all by the twitter community has been amazingly consistent with each other and has been so helpful. Thank you Twitterers! I’m very moved. People recently talk about social networks replacing traditional social life and making people cold and unsociable in real life. But … I guess that’s not true at all.

From a German friend
A German friend of mine was in Shibuya (downtown Tokyo shopping district) when the earthquake hit. He was panicking when a Japanese passerby saved him, taking him into a building. My friend was blown away at how calm and disciplined this Japanese man was. He went out of the building with firm, unfaltering steps, did everything he was trained to do and came back. My German friend was deeply impressed by the Japanese people’s actions during the earthquake, saying they looked like a trained army.

Gotenba traffic
Japan is really something! Yesterday, not a single traffic light was functioning in Gotenba City. But drivers knew to take turns at intersections and give way to others when needed. Local people were using flags to direct traffic at intersections. I drove for 9 hours but never saw a single car trying to get in front of another. Every single driver on the road contributed to the traffic situation and as a result there was no confusion at all.

“All of us”
I spoke with an old taxi driver and some elderly staff at the train stations. All of them had been working non-stop and had not been able to go home for a long time. They were visibly very tired, but never once did they show any sign of impatience; they were gentle and very caring. They told me “… because all of us are in this together.” I was touched at what the notion of “all of us” meant to these elderly people. It is a value I will treasure and carry on to my generation.

A strong Japan
Suntory Beverages has set up free vending machines. Softbank Telephone services is offering free Wifi spots. Everyone in Japan is putting everything they can into helping one another. Japan is also now receiving aid from abroad. Compared to the Kobe earthquake, when Japan took too long to contemplate accepting foreign aid or dispatching the self-defense force to join the rescue effort, Japan has definitely grown into a far stronger nation. Be strong, everyone!

Morning Ceremony
At the shopping center I work at, every morning we have a ritual (common in Japan) where we stand and recite, “No matter what the situation, I will never show anxiety before my customer; in all customer-facing situations I will treat my customers with respect and do everything I can to make them feel comfortable and at ease”. Today, these words were all actually kind of touching. Well, so the day begins! Here we go people, open shop!

Lessons Learnt
What caught my attention on twitter is that a lot of the tweets were about the Kobe earthquake and how what we have learned from it has been put into practice this time around. I know it goes without saying, but I was once again reminded of how humans are indeed creatures that possess the amazing ability to think and learn from experience. It’s a great thought.

A strong voice
Yesterday, I was impressed and touched by the actions of my neighbor’s 13-year-old-boy. He was home alone when the earthquake hit. But instead of hiding, as soon as the earthquake quieted down, he jumped on his bicycle and road around the block repeatedly shouting at the top of his voice, “Is everyone alright? Is everyone okay?” At the time, there were only women and children and the elderly in the homes. I cannot describe how comforting it was just to hear a strong voice asking if I was okay. Thank you!

The beauty of helping one another
I went out last night to help some friends who were volunteering as security personnel between Machida City and Sagami Ohno City.

I was so touched I hid behind the toilets and cried.

I just have a bike
I’m so touched! My colleague at my part time job, wanting to help even just one extra person, wrote a sign saying “I just have a bike, but if you don’t mind hop on!”, rode out on his motorbike, picked up a stranded construction worker and took him all the way to Tokorozawa! Respect! I have never felt so strongly that I want to do something helpful for others.

Rest here!
Last night, I decided, rather than stay at the office, I should try walking home. So I slowly made my way west on Koshu freeway on foot. It was around 9PM when I saw an office building that had a sign that said “Please use our office’s bathrooms! Please rest here!” The employees of the office were loudly shouting out the same to all the people trying to walk home. I was so touch I felt like crying. Well, I guess I was too tense yesterday to cry, but now the tension is wearing off and am very much in tears.

At the convenience store
While most of the convenience stores near the station were closed because of the quake, there was just one Seven Eleven that was open. The employees had lit lots of candles and put them on the stores shelves. The cash register was not working and they could not take inventory, so the employees worked in threes, one reading up the item description and price, another punching the numbers into a calculator, and the last one using a flashlight to help them work. The store managed to operate both “cash registers” efficiently this way. Impressed!

On the way to the emergency evacuation area
My oldest daughter was making her way to Yokohama’s emergency evacuation area. Total strangers were helping each other out and showing each other the way to the emergency evacuation area. She told me she was moved at how strangers, who can seem so cold at times, showed her kindness and care.

A big, kind voice
I’ve been walking for many hours now. I’m touched at how everywhere I turn, there are shops open with people shouting “Please use our bathroom!” or “Please rest here!” There were also office buildings where people with access to information were voluntarily shouting out helpful tips, like “**** line is now operational!” Seeing things like this after walking for hours and hours made me feel like weeping with gratitude. Seriously, there is still hope for this country!

On the platform
The Oedo Subway Line for Hikarigaoka is very congested. On the platform and at the gate there are just crowds and crowds of people waiting for the train. But in all the confusion, every last person is neatly lined up waiting his or her turn while managing to keep a passage of space open for staff and people going the other way. Everyone is listening to the instructions from the staff and everyone acts accordingly. And amazingly … there isn’t even a rope or anything in sight to keep people in queue or open space for staff to pass, they just do! I am so impressed at this almost unnatural orderliness! I have nothing but praise for these people!

Coffee
My husband finally got home very late last night after walking for 4 hours. He told me he felt like giving up at around Akabane, when an elderly man who was going around handing out free coffee saw him, gave him a steaming cup and said, “You must be tired and cold. Here, have some coffee!” My husband told me that it was because of this elderly man that he found the will and strength to continue walking. I’ve already heard this story from him five times tonight, so no doubt he was really, really touched! Thank you to my husband’s anonymous helper!

Not enough money!
At the store where I work, a huge group of young men suddenly came in to buy booze. One of them suddenly said, “Oops, I only have enough money to buy booze, I can’t donate! Forget the booze, maybe next time!” and instead put ALL his money into the disaster relief donation box. One by one, every single one of the army of youths threw all their money into the box after him. What a heart-warming sight that was!

Goth youth
A goth youth with white hair and body piercings walked into my store and shoved several hundred dollars (several tens of thousands of yen) into the disaster relief fund donation box. As he walked out, I and people around me heard him saying to his buddies, “I mean, we can buy those games anytime!” At that, we all opened our wallets and put our money into the donation box.

But there were private cars with drivers shouting “If you’re going in the direction of ****, please hop on!” I was able to hitch a ride on one of them. When I thanked the driver, he replied “No worries! We’re all on the same boat. We have to stick together!”

避難所にいたときに、社会人1年生で、研修でこっちにきてた女の子が、たまたま携帯のバッテリーも持参してたらしく、体育館のコンセントを使用する許可ももらい、「携帯の充電をされたい方は、ご自由につかってください」と呼びかけて回ってたんだ。僕はその子にとても感動したんだよ･･
Need to charge your phone?
At the emergency evacuation area, a young first-year intern at my company who had brought her phone’s charger got permission from the facility to use their power socket and went around shouting “Anyone need to charge their phone? Please use my charger!” Just a little thing, but I was touched.

Pray for Japan(为日本祷告吧！)
Hereby, i would also like to share an article translated by Jun Shiomitsu which has been shared frequently by people on facebook. I find it very inspiring and warm-hearted. So i decided to share it in my blog and i hope through this, people who reads it will learn a lesson on how civilized the Japanese are during a hard time like this.

Japanese people have been very open on Twitter about their experiences following the quake. These snippets of what moved them and touched them during these very trying times are heart-warming. I have attempted a rough translation on some of them so that you can have a read.
Please continue to pray for the people in Japan.
I hope these mini-stories will bring strength and encouragement to my friends and family in Japan by letting them know that, not only does the world sympathize with them, it looks up to them in admiration! My thoughts are with you.
"The Lord bless you and keep you; the Lord make His face to shine on you and be gracious unto you; the Lord turn His face toward you and give you peace." (The Holy Bible)

ディズニーランドでは、ショップのお菓子なども配給された。ちょっと派手目な女子高生たちが必要以上にたくさんもらってて「何だ？」って一瞬思ったけど、その後その子たちが、避難所の子供たちにお菓子を配っていたところ見て感動。子供連れは動けない状況だったから、本当にありがたい心配りだった
At Tokyo Disneyland:
Tokyo Disneyland was handing out its shops’ food and drinks for free to the stranded people nearby. I saw a bunch of snobby looking highschool girls walking away with large portions of it and initially though “What the …” But I later I found out they were taking them to the families with little children at emergency evacuation areas. Very perceptive of them, and a very kind thing to do indeed.

Message from the UN
Secretary General Ban Ki Moon: “Japan is one of (the UN’s) most generous and strongest benefactors, coming to the assistance of those in need the world over. In that spirit, the United Nations stands by the people of Japan and we will do anything and everything we can at this very difficult time.” I was moved at his words. What better example that good things happen to those who do good.

一回の青信号で１台しか前に進めないなんてザラだったけど、誰もが譲り合い穏やかに運転している姿に感動した。複雑な交差点で交通が５分以上完全マヒするシーンもあったけど、１０時間の間お礼以外のクラクションの音を耳にしなかった。恐怖と同時に心温まる時間で、日本がますます好きになった。
At a congested downtown intersection …
Cars were moving at the rate of maybe one every green light, but everyone was letting each other go first with a warm look and a smile. At a complicated intersection, the traffic was at a complete standstill for 5 minutes, but I listened for 10 minutes and didn’t hear a single beep or honk except for an occasional one thanking someone for giving way. It was a terrifying day, but scenes like this warmed me and made me love my country even more.

During the earthquake
We’ve all been trained to immediately open the doors and establish an escape route when there is an earthquake. In the middle of the quake while the building was shaking crazily and things falling everywhere, a man made his way to the entrance and held it open. Honestly, the chandelier could have crashed down any minute … that was a brave man!

Thank you Tokyo Disney Sea
My daughter who was staying at DisneySea just made it back home! Many, many thanks to the staff who worked very hard in the cold with ready smiles that made her to feel safe and secure during the entire night. They brought her food, drinks, snacks, heating pads, and anything necessary to ensure she was comfortable and secure throughout her stay. I was touched by the Disney staff’s warmth and hospitality. Thank you so much!

この地震が、きっかけになって、失いかけていた日本人本来の良さが戒間見れた気がする。犯罪はする様子はなく、助け合い、律儀、紳士的。普段日本人は冷たい人が多い…。って個人的に感じてるんだけど、多くの人が今回で「絆」を取り戻しつつあるように見えて、それがなんか感動して、泣けてくる。
Reminded of the goodness of the Japanese people
This earthquake has reminded me of that Japanese goodness that had recently become harder and harder to see. Today I see no crime or looting: I am reminded once again of the good Japanese spirit of helping one another, of propriety, and of gentleness. I had recently begun to regard my modern countrymen as cold people … but this earthquake has revived and given back to all of us the spirit of “kizuna” (bond, trust, sharing, the human connection). I am very touched. I am brought to tears.

Card board boxes, Thank you!
It was cold and I was getting very weary waiting forever for the train to come. Some homeless people saw me, gave me some of their own cardboard boxes and saying “you’ll be warmer if you sit on these!” I have always walked by homeless people pretending I didn’t see them, and yet here they were offering me warmth. Such warm people.

What foreigners are saying about Japanese people
At a supermarket where everything was scattered everywhere over the floors, shoppers were helping pick them up and putting them back neatly on the shelves before quietly moving into line to wait to pay for them. On the totally jam-packed first train after the quake, an elderly man gave up his seat for a pregnant woman. Foreigners have told me they are amazed witnessing sights like these. I do believe they actually saw what they said they saw. Japan is truly amazing.
* メディアの動きについて

Information network this time around
The information sharing efforts on Twitter or USTREAM, together with the quality of coverage and crucial updates provided by the mass media this time around is incomparable to what we got during the Kobe earthquake. I am deeply impressed by Japan’s successful efforts and ability to put to practice lessons learnt from past tragedies.

BBC Reports
The words of BBC’s reports are so moving they make me cry. They were praising us with words of admiration! “One of the worst earthquakes in recorded history has hit the world’s most well-prepared, well-trained nations. The strength of its government and its people are put to the test. While there have been casualties, in no other country could the government and the people have worked together in such an accurate and coordinated way in the face of such tragedy. The Japanese people have shown their cultural ability to remain calm in the face of adversity.”

A little story about Papa
We live in an area that was not directly hit. When my father came downstairs and heard the news saying that our area had begun allocating electricity to the hard-hit areas, he quietly led by example, turning off the power around the house and pulling the plugs out of their sockets. I was touched. He usually NEVER turns off the lights or the AC or the TV or anything!

The bakery lady
There was a small bread shop on the street I take to go to school. It has long been out of business. But last night, I saw the old lady of the shop giving people her handmade bread for free. It was a heart-warming sight. She, like everyone else, was doing what she could to help people in a time of need. Tokyo isn’t that bad afterall!

Japan is a wonderful nation!
Both the government and the people, everyone is helping one another today. There are truck drivers helping evacuees move. I even heard that the “yakuza” (gangsters, organized crime groups) are helping to direct traffic in the Tohoku region! There have been many recent developments that have made me lose my sense of pride in my country, but not anymore. Japan is an amazing place! I’m just simply touched. Go Japan!

Twitter is amazing!
The information shared to us all by the twitter community has been amazingly consistent with each other and has been so helpful. Thank you Twitterers! I’m very moved. People recently talk about social networks replacing traditional social life and making people cold and unsociable in real life. But … I guess that’s not true at all.

From a German friend
A German friend of mine was in Shibuya (downtown Tokyo shopping district) when the earthquake hit. He was panicking when a Japanese passerby saved him, taking him into a building. My friend was blown away at how calm and disciplined this Japanese man was. He went out of the building with firm, unfaltering steps, did everything he was trained to do and came back. My German friend was deeply impressed by the Japanese people’s actions during the earthquake, saying they looked like a trained army.

Gotenba traffic
Japan is really something! Yesterday, not a single traffic light was functioning in Gotenba City. But drivers knew to take turns at intersections and give way to others when needed. Local people were using flags to direct traffic at intersections. I drove for 9 hours but never saw a single car trying to get in front of another. Every single driver on the road contributed to the traffic situation and as a result there was no confusion at all.

“All of us”
I spoke with an old taxi driver and some elderly staff at the train stations. All of them had been working non-stop and had not been able to go home for a long time. They were visibly very tired, but never once did they show any sign of impatience; they were gentle and very caring. They told me “… because all of us are in this together.” I was touched at what the notion of “all of us” meant to these elderly people. It is a value I will treasure and carry on to my generation.

A strong Japan
Suntory Beverages has set up free vending machines. Softbank Telephone services is offering free Wifi spots. Everyone in Japan is putting everything they can into helping one another. Japan is also now receiving aid from abroad. Compared to the Kobe earthquake, when Japan took too long to contemplate accepting foreign aid or dispatching the self-defense force to join the rescue effort, Japan has definitely grown into a far stronger nation. Be strong, everyone!

Morning Ceremony
At the shopping center I work at, every morning we have a ritual (common in Japan) where we stand and recite, “No matter what the situation, I will never show anxiety before my customer; in all customer-facing situations I will treat my customers with respect and do everything I can to make them feel comfortable and at ease”. Today, these words were all actually kind of touching. Well, so the day begins! Here we go people, open shop!

Lessons Learnt
What caught my attention on twitter is that a lot of the tweets were about the Kobe earthquake and how what we have learned from it has been put into practice this time around. I know it goes without saying, but I was once again reminded of how humans are indeed creatures that possess the amazing ability to think and learn from experience. It’s a great thought.

My friend in Rome emailed me. He said that people in Rome are watching the news and sharing their amazement and their heartfelt respect at how, even at a time like this, the people of Japan are able to remain calm and systematically respond to the situation.

A strong voice
Yesterday, I was impressed and touched by the actions of my neighbor’s 13-year-old-boy. He was home alone when the earthquake hit. But instead of hiding, as soon as the earthquake quieted down, he jumped on his bicycle and road around the block repeatedly shouting at the top of his voice, “Is everyone alright? Is everyone okay?” At the time, there were only women and children and the elderly in the homes. I cannot describe how comforting it was just to hear a strong voice asking if I was okay. Thank you!

The beauty of helping one another
I went out last night to help some friends who were volunteering as security personnel between Machida City and Sagami Ohno City. I saw total strangers, both young and old, helping each other along everywhere I turned and was heartened with an overwhelming feeling of encouragement. I was so touched I hid behind the toilets and cried.

I just have a bike
I’m so touched! My colleague at my part time job, wanting to help even just one extra person, wrote a sign saying “I just have a bike, but if you don’t mind hop on!”, rode out on his motorbike, picked up a stranded construction worker and took him all the way to Tokorozawa! Respect! I have never felt so strongly that I want to do something helpful for others.

Rest here!
Last night, I decided, rather than stay at the office, I should try walking home. So I slowly made my way west on Koshu freeway on foot. It was around 9PM when I saw an office building that had a sign that said “Please use our office’s bathrooms! Please rest here!” The employees of the office were loudly shouting out the same to all the people trying to walk home. I was so touch I felt like crying. Well, I guess I was too tense yesterday to cry, but now the tension is wearing off and am very much in tears.

At the convenience store
While most of the convenience stores near the station were closed because of the quake, there was just one Seven Eleven that was open. The employees had lit lots of candles and put them on the stores shelves. The cash register was not working and they could not take inventory, so the employees worked in threes, one reading up the item description and price, another punching the numbers into a calculator, and the last one using a flashlight to help them work. The store managed to operate both “cash registers” efficiently this way. Impressed!

On the way to the emergency evacuation area
My oldest daughter was making her way to Yokohama’s emergency evacuation area. Total strangers were helping each other out and showing each other the way to the emergency evacuation area. She told me she was moved at how strangers, who can seem so cold at times, showed her kindness and care. I was reminded at the Japanese peoples’ inherent ability to immediately unite in the face of adversity. Today, I have discovered a newfound faith in my nation and my people.

A big, kind voice
I’ve been walking for many hours now. I’m touched at how everywhere I turn, there are shops open with people shouting “Please use our bathroom!” or “Please rest here!” There were also office buildings where people with access to information were voluntarily shouting out helpful tips, like “**** line is now operational!” Seeing things like this after walking for hours and hours made me feel like weeping with gratitude. Seriously, there is still hope for this country!

On the platform
The Oedo Subway Line for Hikarigaoka is very congested. On the platform and at the gate there are just crowds and crowds of people waiting for the train. But in all the confusion, every last person is neatly lined up waiting his or her turn while managing to keep a passage of space open for staff and people going the other way. Everyone is listening to the instructions from the staff and everyone acts accordingly. And amazingly … there isn’t even a rope or anything in sight to keep people in queue or open space for staff to pass, they just do! I am so impressed at this almost unnatural orderliness! I have nothing but praise for these people!

Coffee
My husband finally got home very late last night after walking for 4 hours. He told me he felt like giving up at around Akabane, when an elderly man who was going around handing out free coffee saw him, gave him a steaming cup and said, “You must be tired and cold. Here, have some coffee!” My husband told me that it was because of this elderly man that he found the will and strength to continue walking. I’ve already heard this story from him five times tonight, so no doubt he was really, really touched! Thank you to my husband’s anonymous helper!

近所のスーパー・サミットに来てみたら、通常深夜1時まで営業なのに大きい看板が付いていなかった。早めに店を閉めたのかと思ったら、外の電気だけ消して節電しつつ営業していた。ちょっと感動
Saving electricity for the North
I went to my neighborhood supermarket and was initially surprised that their neon signs were off. They usually are open till 1AM. I then found out that they were open, but were saving electricity so that more power could be channeled to the hard-hit coastal areas. Wow!
* 買うのやめるわ

バイト先に若いお兄さんたちが軍団でお酒を買いに来たんだけど、その中の一人が｢やべえ、オレお酒のためにしかお金持ってきてないから募金できん。ちょっとこれ買うのやめるわ｣って言って商品返品してそのお金全部募金してた。お友達も続々と募金しててすごい感動した。 すごいよ
Not enough money!
At the store where I work, a huge group of young men suddenly came in to buy booze. One of them suddenly said, “Oops, I only have enough money to buy booze, I can’t donate! Forget the booze, maybe next time!” and instead put ALL his money into the disaster relief donation box. One by one, every single one of the army of youths threw all their money into the box after him. What a heart-warming sight that was!
* いつでも買える
http://twitter.com/7474529/status/46565903520907264
今日、募金箱に金髪にピアスの若い兄ちゃんが万札数枚入れていた。そしてその友人に｢ゲームなんていつでも買えるからな｣と言っていたのが聞こえて私含め周りの人達も募金していた。人は見た目じゃないことを実感した。そんなお昼でした。 この話感動しました。
Goth youth
A goth youth with white hair and body piercings walked into my store and shoved several hundred dollars (several tens of thousands of yen) into the disaster relief fund donation box. As he walked out, I and people around me heard him saying to his buddies, “I mean, we can buy those games anytime!” At that, we all opened our wallets and put our money into the donation box. Really, you cannot judge people by their appearances.
* 絶対うまいはず

僕も秋葉からの帰りにおにぎりとみそ汁配ってる方に会いました、感動しました、チャリだったからダイジョブです他の人にって言ったけどもらっておけばよかったなぁ絶対うまかったと思う
They looked absolutely delicious!
I too saw the guy handing out free rice balls and miso soup on the way back from Akihabara. I was on my bicycle so I told him, “I’m okay, please give it to other people!” On hindsight, I should have taken one … they looked absolutely delicious!!
* お菓子いっぱい
http://twitter.com/moebamuse/status/46379810217406465
すごい。弟たった今ディズニーランドから帰宅したんだけど。新品のお菓子袋いっぱいにもらってきて、客全員分の帰りの交通費負担してくれたんだって。一晩中、何か言えば全て対応してくれたって。やっぱり世界のディズニーランドなんだね。
Another Disney episode
Amazing! My brother just managed to get home from Disneyland right now. He’s got bags and bags of free sweets. Furthermore, Disneyland paid for every customer’s travel fare back. All night long, the staff responded immediately and fully to every request he made. Disneyland is truly a world class brand!
* 困ったときは！
http://twitter.com/ryoshun49/statuses/46605524434821120
昨日青葉台駅で帰宅困難者が溢れる中、車に乗ってる人が「○○方面の方どうぞ！」って行って車に乗せてた。「困った時はみんな一緒ですから！」って言ってた。超感動したの思い出した。
Same boat!
Last night, Aobadai station was jammed with stranded people unable to get home. But there were private cars with drivers shouting “If you’re going in the direction of ****, please hop on!” I was able to hitch a ride on one of them. When I thanked the driver, he replied “No worries! We’re all on the same boat. We have to stick together!”
* 充電されたい方は・・・・
http://twitter.com/yamachin_x1/statuses/46609620210421760
避難所にいたときに、社会人1年生で、研修でこっちにきてた女の子が、たまたま携帯のバッテリーも持参してたらしく、体育館のコンセントを使用する許可ももらい、「携帯の充電をされたい方は、ご自由につかってください」と呼びかけて回ってたんだ。僕はその子にとても感動したんだよ･･
Need to charge your phone?
At the emergency evacuation area, a young first-year intern at my company who had brought her phone’s charger got permission from the facility to use their power socket and went around shouting “Anyone need to charge their phone? Please use my charger!” Just a little thing, but I was touched.

Long distance relationship, when you heard of this, you feel like it is too abstract, unbelievable and too dramatic
you will always fear that one day he will no longer have the passion like he used to have on you
worry that his ex-gf and the rest of the women on earth to kidnap him away
but what else you can do but keep on worrying about this and that?
I'm not there beside him, therefore, worrying is just useless
To have faith in him trust in him is the only think i have hold on to
just like he always said,
if someone who has prepared to betray you, s(he) just going to do it without telling or showing you
so why bother?
If he plans to betray, i dont have the ability to stop either
so why worry?
When you have decided to have a long distance relationship, you are or should already physically and mentally prepared to bet. It is all about luck.
异地恋，听起来就很不可思议了
担心他对我的感觉因为距离而慢慢调淡
担心他被旧女友，狂蜂浪蝶给骗走去
但担心又能怎么办
我人又不在身边
既然如此 担心又如何 不放心又能如何
信任是我唯一能做的 能给的 能坚持的
反正如他常说的一样
人要走私反正在你看不到的地方
他要乱 我阻止不了 也管不着
选择了异地恋 就注定要面对这一切

All those days watching from the windows
All those years outside looking in
All that time never even knowing
Just how blind I've been
Now I'm here, blinking in the starlight
Now I'm here, suddenly I see
Standing here, it's all so clear
I'm where I'm meant to be
And at last I see the light
And it's like the fog has lifted
And at last I see the light
And it's like the sky is new
And it's warm and real and bright
And the world has somehow shifted
All at once everything looks different
Now that I see you
Eugene(Flynn):
All those days chasing down a daydream
All those years living in a blur
All that time never truly seeing
Things, the way they were
Now she's here shining in the starlight
Now she's here, suddenly I know
If she's here it's crystal clear
I'm where I'm meant to go
Rapunzel & Eugene (Flynn):
And at last I see the light

How do we define 'perfection' in life?
Get a chance to own all of these?
(luxurious car, huge mansion, countless of money, a bunch of wives, kids, etc...)
What kind of life is said to be perfect to you?
To me, simple life = perfect life
I mean how easy for us to say, we would like to own everything on earth but ends up with frustration and disappointment, yet we never appreciate what we actually owned. It has been there, all the while there with us and yet we always ask for more.
All i really wanted is only a family, a home. I don't have to live rich or luxurious, I just wanted to have a complete family, get to save some cash and go vacation occasionally, educate my children, see them grow and stay healthy with my husband and get old with him.
Life is just so simple, and human is the one who makes thing difficult.
So, what makes a perfect life to you?

完美人生的定义在哪里？
拥有这所有就是完美的一生了？
(豪华房车，豪华大宅，一大罗一大罗数不完的钱，很多的老婆，孩子等）
你的完美人生是怎样的？
对我来说，简简单单的生活 = 完美人生
简单来说，人总是希望能拥有一切 但得来的就是很大的失望 因为希望越大失望越大 而
我们从来没有珍惜自己拥有的东西
它一路来都存在着 只是我们很常忽略了它 我们应该要自足
我想要的只是一个家，一个温软的家
我不需要活的很富裕 我只想要个完整的家
每年省点钱带孩子去旅游 把孩子照顾好 看他们长大 跟我的另一半健健康康的看着孩子成长
跟他变老
人生可以很简单 只是人类把它弄复杂了
你想要的完美人生是怎样的？

Through the growing process,
human grows and their thinking changed according to time
The changes can be as tiny as a change of taste to as huge as forgetting our dream
if only if you still can recall now, your childhood dream, can you?
Or would it be the change of attitude for instant?
A good example for that:
if from the start, you are holding a '1'
to the middle, it has been replaced with a different set of numbers
peers influence, environment can be a stepping stone to changes
Coming to the end, you might not even be able to recall what's the number you have been holding in the starting line or through the process
or even the reason coming to this stage!
what is the difference between dream and ambition?
maybe we can differentiate them in a different way like
dream is a dream, you think of it, wanted to have it, but you know it might or might not be able to achieve
while for an ambition, you think of it, you work for it, and you have the possibility to get it if you tried hard enough
a dream is always wonderful, perfect and brilliant
an ambition is an aim that boost up your confident, a plan to success
Someone with a dream is full of passion, hope and patience
Someone with an ambition is confident, mature and have a great future
In my opinion, to be success in life,
we should always remember our dream
someone who has passion with what he is doing, confident, believe in future and has a lot of patience can be succeeded in life.
People says we are growing to a different stage of life and hence, keep on dreaming is not tolerable
but shouldn't we have passion in what we are doing?
We only live for once, for all.
Enjoy the process of growing, not the product because we may not know what is in the end.
当人一天一天的长大
想法也慢慢的随着时间而改变着
改变的可以是小时候的志愿 如果你还记得的话
改变的也有可能是人的个性
出发点开始是一
到了中间可能变了其它数字
朋友，路人，和周围的环境的影响下而随着改变
在尾点时你可能再也不记得当初所经过的号码 连为了什么而到来也可能忘记了
梦想跟理想到底有什么不一样的呢？
先说理想
‘理’是理性的理 是说我们是用着理性去考虑我们想得到的可能性
而理想是有可能做得到的
而梦想却不一样
‘梦’是梦幻的梦 不是立体的是抽象的去想达到一个目标
但梦想出来的，不理性的，带着一点童真，一点傻气
明明知道不可能或很难能实现的，但是梦想出来的偏偏就是那么的美好
那么的快乐
再者我们应该要有梦想或理想呢？
一个有理想的人 能成功
一个有梦想的人 很感性
简单来说，一个有理想的人 有志气 有信心 有未来
而一个有梦想的人 有童真 有热情 有希望和能耐
所以我们做人一点要保持着这两个很重要的元素
当人长大时，我们往往都把梦想忘掉了
其实我们做什么都好，都应该保留着一点童气，很多的热情 还有耐心
那么有理想的我们就会成功
成熟使人忘了童真
别太快赶着长大吧，就算心理上已经成熟了 也要享受那一刻的童真
以为我们只年轻一次

When you're at the bottom line, we tend to feel like we wanted to give up
but do you ever think of the possibility if only we are to hang in there,
get over it and things will be better?
We always use excuses to make ourselves feel better to keep on with the battle
it is funny and childish how lame excuse can work at a time
When stress is pulling me down
I tend to use tears to cool it down
he says: you're an adult, it is time to grow and you shouldn't cry for a small matter
truly, i am
but have you ever thought of my feelings that i have been though?
I have always always forced myself to grow to be mature
but do i really want that?
No, who doesn't want to stay childish and innocent?
I just wanted a break and at least for that few second, let me act like a child?
So that someone will pamper me and let me do what i want
I don't want to act strong all the time, sometimes, i want to be weak as well
After a second, i can continue the battle again
People says someone who is emotional can easily fall into tears
But we are also easily satisfied with our lives
I feel like falling but i have to hang in there
because i can't afford to lose
I feel lonely but there isn't anything i can do
Because i have to be patience and wait for the time to come
In the darkest period, then only I realized that all i wanted is just a hug and someone who's willing to listen to me
to share
Hang in there,
Be strong
当你在崩溃的边缘时，时不时我们会想要放弃
但有没有想过，只要我们愿意撑下去，过了这一关
世界可能就一片光明了呢？
很常我都用不一样的原理来说服自己
让自己奋斗下去
很可笑也很幼稚
当压力大的撑不住时
我会想着用眼泪来解压
他说你长大了，该成熟
不要再为小事情流眼泪
对啊
我一直以来都在强逼着自己长大
小时是如此，少年时也如此
现在长大了，还是如此
可是 就不能够在某时候给我放松一下吗?
我当女强人当怕了 我不可以当个小女孩吗？
别人说感性的人很容易哭但也很容易开心
因为我们都很容易为小小的事情而满足啊
咳
很崩溃却不能放弃
因为我受不起这么大的代价
很寂寞却不能做什么
因为我必须要沉得住气忍下去
原来在最崩溃时，
我需要的是一个愿意听我诉苦的人
更加想得到的是他的怀抱和关怀
加油吧
只能一直的撑下去

I think that every human being should be given a choice to pick what they want
we might not be able to choose our backgrounds and how we came into this world
but we always have the chance to change our lives
the fate is in our hands
you hold tight to the opportunity you'll be success
you'll stand in the front line
you feel lazy and unmotivated
you are planning to lose the battle
You,you know yourself the best
Yet, you might be the one who knows yourself the least as well
Days and days, we tend to doubt ourselves by asking questions like:
Am I in the right path? Is that gonna work?
We are actually the actors and actresses in our own movie
Even if we made a mistake, that's not a big deal
because learning is a process of growing.
Change, if it is wrong
Improve, to make it better
A movie is never a good one without some falls in the scene
It is always full of emotion, ups and downs and the spice makes it works perfectly
Enjoy the complexion, taste the failure, believe in future,
and you'll the king of your world~
我觉得每个人在这世界上都应该给予选择的机会
我们没办法选择我们的出生 我们的背景
可是却有机会改变我们的未来
未来都掌握在我们手掌里
你把握机会 你上进
你就排在前线
你懒散放弃 不奋斗
你就注定要失败
只有自己最了解自己
却可是最不了解自己的 也是自己
我们每天都在犹豫着
想啊想
所走的每一步和做的每一个选择都是对的吗？
其实 人生如戏，戏如人生
想这么多做什么？
做错了走散了
改过就好咯， 再找过办法就好咯
好的坏的也是戏里面的一部分啊
谁说风调雨顺的戏最好看？
最精彩的戏可是乱的很叻~
享受纷乱，接受挫败，相信未来，必能称王

A new blog, a new beginning
sometimes when i thought of something to say, there isn't anyone to share
though of course we have friends around, but is not like we can share everything with friends, can we? -sigh-
hence, i opened this blog page just to share and whenever i have something to say, i'll just post it here
Who knows people who knows me is going to read this and get to know more about me
I'm not a person who talks a lot about myself I tend to keep them with myself
Is that something i'm used to? I don't know
In the age of 14, there is always me at home with no one,
my sister went to study oversea, and my parents are just doing their own things
At the age of 15, i moved a lot,
It has been only me all the while
no one to share and no one is willing to share a shoulder for me to lend on
At the age of 20, I even fell into a great sickness.
Sometimes, it makes it sounds ridiculous like this is all a great joke from God
But i never gave up of myself,
I have to complete my degree no matter what or how it is going to be
I will stand tall in front of the crowd and tell them, i can do better than a lot people
Last year in September, i met a guy.
He isn't my first love, but he is a man that i'm willing to bet everything i have just to start a new life with him.
I bet on everything i have, and i might not win in this game,
yet, nothing is gonna lose because even if so, i will not regret for it.
If i win,
i got myself a family,
children of us, a home
If i lose,
i lose everything and it's okay because i am going to leave quietly
and i won't believe in love anymore.
Even so, until this second, i have never regret that I've met you because it is the best part of my life
and you're the one who change that.
That now, i have you.
新的微博，新的开始
有时想想要说的，却没人可分享，
没错，的确可以跟朋友分享啊， 但是又不是每样东西都可以跟朋友分享的
咳
还是开个微薄，要说的就打进来吧
有可能哪天给认识的人看到，也能多多了解我啊
我是一个不太会表达自己的人，很常把心事藏在心里
是习惯吗？可能吧
从十四岁开始，家里就剩下我一个而已
姐姐去了留学，父母亲不争气
十五岁时不停的搬家
我都是一个人的
没有人去分享家里的烦恼，没有能依赖的背
到了二十岁那年 还生了场大病
有时想，老天爷真的跟我开了一场很大的玩笑
我从没有放弃过自己
我要努力去把大学念好
我要站出社会告诉他们我是行的
在上一年的九月，我遇到了他
他不是我的初恋
可是却是我最想用自己的所有赌一赌的人
我赌了全部
就在赌自己的命一样
要不就切切底底的输光光
不然就切切底底的赢一盘
败了
我再不相信爱
赢了
我愿意把自己切低献上
为家里，孩子，未来努力
你背叛了
我们从此玩完
就是那么的简单
我不会再像上一段一样拖泥带水
我要干净零落，决定果断
若输了，我输掉了自己
也不要紧
因为我从不后悔跟你开始过
若赢了，我还是输掉了自己
但也不要紧
因为我有了你
The Beginning (开始的一天)
sometimes when i thought of something to say, there isn't anyone to share
though of course we have friends around, but is not like we can share everything with friends, can we? -sigh-
hence, i opened this blog page just to share and whenever i have something to say, i'll just post it here
Who knows people who knows me is going to read this and get to know more about me
I'm not a person who talks a lot about myself I tend to keep them with myself
Is that something i'm used to? I don't know
In the age of 14, there is always me at home with no one,
my sister went to study oversea, and my parents are just doing their own things
At the age of 15, i moved a lot,
It has been only me all the while
no one to share and no one is willing to share a shoulder for me to lend on
At the age of 20, I even fell into a great sickness.
Sometimes, it makes it sounds ridiculous like this is all a great joke from God
But i never gave up of myself,
I have to complete my degree no matter what or how it is going to be
I will stand tall in front of the crowd and tell them, i can do better than a lot people
Last year in September, i met a guy.
He isn't my first love, but he is a man that i'm willing to bet everything i have just to start a new life with him.
I bet on everything i have, and i might not win in this game,
yet, nothing is gonna lose because even if so, i will not regret for it.
If i win,
i got myself a family,
children of us, a home
If i lose,
i lose everything and it's okay because i am going to leave quietly
and i won't believe in love anymore.
Even so, until this second, i have never regret that I've met you because it is the best part of my life
and you're the one who change that.
That now, i have you.
