Huh… Busy…

Erm… quite busy recently… but I can’t complaint, because I’ m the one who ‘cari pasal’, make myself as busy as I can… -.-‘

Eating, sleeping, studying, doing assignments, swimming and reading novel… are the normal activities I will do often.

Apart from those, I have looked for a part time job, as a data entree. Get some forms from an office nearby, then key in them at my house… RM0.15 - 0.20 per form. A lot of my friends said that it’s not worth but I still continue doing this. It’s because this job is very free and of course, I won’t give up any opportunity to earn $$ so easily. Hehe!

I have joint violin course… Finally I decided to learn it, after struggling for many years. It was one of my dreams when I was young. I kept thinking of it, kept giving up… because I didn’t have confidence that I can play it well. But now, finally! Though I have been a bit too old, a bit too late…. My violin teacher learnt it since he was 6 years old, he is playing violin for about 18 years already… how many 18-years do I have? Sweat!

Comment allez-vous? Je suis Elly. Hehe! Yeah! Another course that I joint is French language course… (actually I prefer to learn Japanese =.=’) but I can’t really pronounce the French words... its really hard… I have to admit that I’m really a slow learner. Feel sad…

Another one is joining Engineering Society. One of its sub-societies is ROBOCOM. To build robots, it sounds so ‘yeng’. I felt so excited when I just joint it, finally it’s not an impossible mission for me to build a robot anymore, I can do it also. But… disappointingly, I found that I cant really follow their steps, as I’m just in Year1 Sem1 now, I don’t understand what they are doing… it’s too deep for me! It’s still too far away from me. Hopefully I can catch up with them soon… It will be a very useful experience to me next time.

That all about my recent life… Busy? Ya! Empty? No! So basically I am still satisfied with it…Gambate!!

The Five People You Meet In Heaven

Just finished reading this book….

The author, Mitch Albom, has his own unique definition about ‘heaven’, which is a place to let you to understand all the things happened in your life…

The story begins at the end, with the death of the main character, an ordinary old man--Eddie. He died, but his story never ends. “All endings are also beginnings. We just don’t know it at the time…”

Eddie was meeting five chosen people in heaven. Each of these people played an important role in his life, although he might not even know some of them. In some sense, they influenced his life deeply; they brought special meanings to his life… And now, in heaven, they are here to answer Eddie’s questions- why he lived and what he lived for.

Five people, five memories, five lessons…

However, for me, the most important lesson is about death… We all will die, anytime. We will never know how, when or where we die. We can never fully prepare for it. We can’t do anything to prevent it as well… Just…appreciate what we posses now.
