"God doesn't plan for anyone to be a loser"
My dear kira couldn't have put it more aptly. What she mentioned has put some fresh insights in my mind now, and I guess it's half a burden off my shoulders with this thought in mind. That being said, I still need to decide and make up my mind soon.
Making decisions, whether major or trivial, aren't exactly the easiest things to do, especially when circumstances call for you to either please one or another, or rather, please another person or myself. Often times I fail to decide according to what pleases God, which should be primary. As I grow, I've come to realise that decision making has taken on a new level, and one wrong decision will just land me in dire consequences. Needless to say, there were many bad decisions I've made in life, but it's good to learn from the mistakes made. As the saying goes, 'once bitten, twice as shy'.
What does it really mean to have wisdom in decision making? It's something that's so easy to say, yet difficult to fathom.
I like to ask myself sometimes, if a particular scenario were to happen, how would I make my decision? Unfortunately I can never come up with a proper answer (as usual), and it's even worse when it really happens and you're caught in the web of dilemma.
Frustrating...

Tomorrow is a mystery
From the musical 'Annie'...
The sun'll come out, tomorrow
Bet your bottom dollar, that tomorrow
There'll be sun!
Just thinking about, tomorrow
Clears away the cobwebs, and the sorrow
'Til there's none!
When I'm stuck in a day
That's gray and lonely
I just stick out my chin
And grin and say
The sun'll come out, tomorrow
So you gotta hang on 'til tomorrow
Come what may
Tomorrow! Tomorrow! I love ya, tomorrow
You're always a day away
Annie was just a kid when she sang that. Does she know reality?
And 'Annie' is merely fiction.
明天真的会跟好,meh?

It's too late
For this first time in my NTU life, I visited the School of ADM (Art, Design, and Media) website. Looking at the title, Bachelor in Fine Arts in Photography and Digital Imaging, I can't help but feel a tinge of regret for not exploring more when I was choosing my courses. Why was I so stupid to just limit myself to the humanities? Why was I such a lazy bum when I knew that a portfolio had to be submitted for admission to the school?
Yada yada yada...
That being said, it's not that I dread what I'm doing now. I still love Literature.

And the truth/conclusion of the whole matter is
There is nothing honourable in it, and definitely nothing to be proud of.

Like a wailing kid
I remember when I was still helping out in the kindergarten, there were a few kids who couldn't stop crying because they dreaded school and couldn't bear to leave their parents.
My heart feels like this now.
Lecture starts in 9 hours' time, and how I wish time can just be rewinded or frozen. I have never dreaded school that much. Maybe it's because of the month that has just past. It was like a roller coaster ride of emotions. Sometimes there was happiness, but most of the times it was filled with disappointment, sadness, bleakness, and what-not. Nonetheless, through this unhappy episode, I've realised the importance of family and friends. There are in fact, many people who cared and were there for me, supporting me and giving me insights. Thank God for these people indeed :)
Many things about tomorrow
I don't seem to understand
But I know Who holds tomorrow
And I know Who holds my hand.

I love metaphors
This world is filthy.
Try as I may,
I''ll never get it cleaned...
It's time for me to grow up.
