Quick glimpse at Manchester

Heya all! Sorry for the laaate update. My house had no internet connection at all for the past week. >:( I'm safe and well here (early stages of cold + fever + flu), but really unhappy with my noisy flatmates who love to drink and drink and party and party IN our flat.

Just so everyone knows: Young people in UK know no other night life then going to pubs/clubs to drink and drink and drink. *Even when it's freezing cold!*

Will post a proper update when I'm not that busy. This week's our 1st week and we already have a design project: "Manufacturing milk powder". We have to do loads of calculations and research and I have no idea what differentiation means already. ???

Here are some photos of my journey here and a bit of the sights of the University of Manchester, which is merged with the city. Enjoy!

p.s.I ate Krispy Kreme for breakfast this morning! Hohoho! Waaaay better than J.Co/Big apple. ;)

Inspiration strikes!

When you do not receive, ask yourself if you have been giving?

When you feel misunderstood, ask yourself if you have tried understanding that other persons feelings?

When the whole world seems to hate you, ask yourself if you hated it first?

When you fail and fail again after countless times of trying, ask yourself maybe its time to change the way you do things?

When you think that everything good is uncool, ask yourself what does it mean to be "cool" and whether it gives your life true meaning and satisfaction?

When you fail to find love, ask yourself if you have tried to give love?

When you think that your parents are controlling your life, look closely at their lives, don't you think that it is YOUR life that is controlling theirs?

Do you realize that truly successful people become what they are by learning from mistakes instead of copying other successful people?

Do you realize how you laugh and say you wouldn't eat sh*t when others tell you to, but do exactly that when your so-called "friends" tell you to? (ie. smoking, drugs, speeding)

Do you realize that there can be no winners without losers?

Do you realize how many teenagers strive to be "different" by copying each other?

Do you know that God is always listening to you praying and asking for a piece of stale bread, when He has in mind to provide you with a banquet of good food?

If you think you've had it hard in life, stop complaining and wake up from that self-pitying land you created for yourself. Because in truth, EVERYONE is struggling in one way or another. Some are just braver than others. Stop using your problems to gain attention and sympathy from other people. Instead, brace yourself to face all the challenges in life with an honest and forgiving heart.

When you love, do not hold back. When you help someone, do it for their sake. Because it is by falling that we understand and cherish the meaning of rising. By giving ourselves wholly that we find meaning in our lives.

Stop sitting in front of the computer admiring other people's pictures and wishing you can post pictures as cool/self-flattering as well. People who have less time to bother about their online pages are out there living a life. So do yourself justice and go pick up a new skill, make a new friend, or do some charity and make your short time on this earth worthwhile. :)

Goodbye curls

I cut my hair.

And I'm happy to do it :)
*I'm still complaining about it though. It needs a little more touch up!*

To people who think: "Sayangnyaaa..." or "What was wrong with your long hair??", nothing was wrong with my long curls, but I just decided to have a new look. ^_^x

If you still insist on making me feel bad/regret cutting my hair, go curl your own hair lah! Steal my previous style for all I care. I give you instruction again: Digital curl your hair from just above ear level and ask for side swept bangs. Done! That was easy right? But you'll need $$ of course.. Good luck!
