New Friends & Old Friends.

Make new friends , but keep the old ;
Those are silver , these are gold.
New-made friendships , like new wine ,
Age will mellow and refine.

Friendships that have stood the test -
Time and change - are surely best ;
Brow may wrinkle , hair grow gray,
Friendship never knows decay.

For 'mid old friends , tried and true ,
Once more we our youth renew.
But old friends , alas ! may die ,
New friends must their place supply.

Cherish friendship in your breast -
New is good , but old is best ;
Make new friends , but keep the old ;
Those are silver , these are gold.

This short friendship poem was written by Joseph Parry , (1841-1903).
His words in this inspirational poem regarding friendships still hold true today.
Throughout our life we are constantly meeting new people.
Some remain acquaintances , some become friends.
But , with our old friends we sometimes lose touch with them , due to a move , change of job , marriage , children , the list goes on and on.
Mr. Parry's point on silver and gold as they refer to friendships are well written.
No matter how many people we meet , old friends are still those who know you better.
Some , might be those who understands you most , just like no other.
Our old friends are like gold. And our new friends are silver.
Remember , to treat our old friends like gold although people come and go in our lives.

It takes a long time to grow an old friend.

2011 !

HAPPY NEW YEAR ! ♥

2010 gave me so much of everything , and i am thankful for love , my family , my camera.

and in 2011 , a brand new year , i plan to spend it with much more vigor and love and happiness - real happiness , the one straight from the center of my soul , streaming out to those around me , who love me and are loved by me.
i will , too , keep my camera around my neck to capture the moments i want to keep forever , never fading from mind or memory. this new , budding passion of mine is starting to live in me and i am living for it.

i generally don't believe in new year resolutions , but for this year , my resolution is to do something that is inevitable in everyone's growing up ; to grow into the person i will and want to be. i don't know the how's yet but i soon will. (:

and again , happy happy new year 2011! may our awesomeness be (always) overwhelming and may the happiness in our hearts be long-lasting. and of course , i thank the King of the Universe for enabling all of us to be here until this day. (:


"May your coming year be filled with magic and dreams and good madness. I hope you read some fine books and kiss someone who thinks you’re wonderful , and don’t forget to make some art — write or draw or build or sing or live as only you can. And I hope , somewhere in the next year, you surprise yourself.”
-Neil Gaiman

Dreams.

I believe every one has their own dreams , their own hopes in life.
Some people have big dreams , some with tiny dreams or some , without dreams.
Dreams are most likely to be remained a fairytale , like it'll never come true.
However , some aren't just fairytales. Dreams do come true.
It is in your hands to decide whether it'll come true or not.
Like I always said , this is your life , you decide everything in your life.
Every little thing you do, leads to another big thing.
Dreams are supposed to be chased ! Not to be dreamed. You get me ?
You want to be a Top Model ? Go for it !
You want to be a Top Designer ? Go for it !
You want to travel the world ? Go for it !
You want to be the first person to travel to Pluto ? Go for it !
You want to acheive something you hadn't in life ? Go for it !
Go for your dreams ! Chase your dreams ! Don't ever let your dream die.
I believe nothing's impossible in this world , if you go for it.
Once your dream come true , just be sure that you'll give 100% commitment in it.
You get hold of your destiny , not destiny get hold of you.

Dreams aren't just fairytales in storybooks. Sometimes , they're the fairytales that actually come true.

Commit.

Our One Year Anniversary.

You've always been the one i counted on ,
Through joy and sorrow , laughter , and some tears.
You keep me grounded ; you're my steady rock ;
You're there for me through days and months and years.

You sweet devotion never , ever fails ,
No matter what i say or what i do.
Sometimes i wonder what i ever did
To deserve someone as wonderful as you.

I love you with a love i can't control ;
I always want to be right by your side.
I want to touch you , kiss you and much more ;
My passion for you cannot be denied.

Together we are satisfied and blessed ;
Our having a love affair is the very , very best.

I love you , my dear.

rescue me !

Sara , Manda.

@ the carpark. Picture Perfect.

will be right back tomorrow :D

She is my best friend - MEIPO.
She want leave here on 31th. She will be going taiwan for her study.
Please take care of yourself.

We laughed until we had to cry.
We loved right down to our last goodbye

Today is the day we leave our past behind ;
today we say our last good-byes.
Memories in the back of my mind ,
held close by until the day I die.

I’ll miss you now , I’ll miss you then ,
I’ll miss you f o r e v e r
you will always be my best friend.

As I look back on all that’s happened … growing up , growing together , changing you , changing me … there were times when we dreamed together , when we laughed
and cried together. As I look back on those days , I realize how much I’ll truly
miss you and how much I truly love you. The past may be gone forever ... and what the future holds , our today make the memories of tomorrow. So , my lifetime friend , it is with all my heart that I send you my love , hoping that you’ll always
carry my smile with you , for all we have meant to each other and for what the future may hold.

If two hearts are meant to be friends ,
no matter how long it takes , how far they go , how tough it seems , fate will bring them together to share friendship forever.

It's not what you take when you leave the world behind you ,
it's what you leave behind you when your gone.

Partying n hanging out all night long
I can’t believe your gonna be gone
through the secrets and lies
I'll still be by your side
cause no matter whenever or wherever
we will still be friends forever

Memories build a pathway that go winding through the heart ,
and keep friends close together even they are apart.

I know we'll be friends for life , sharing our dreams together. As we walk down the road ,
we'll never think twice , our memories will last forever. And although we're off to different worlds , somehow we're together. And even though we're far apart , our memories are deep
within our hearts. These are the times to remember , our memories will last , forever more.

If you have to go , don’t say good-bye.
If you have to go don’t you cry.
If you have to go , I will get by.
Someday I’ll follow you and see you on the other side.

Don't be dismayed at good-byes. A farewell is necessary before you can meet again.
And meeting again after moments of lifetime is certain for those who are friends.

I'll remember the laughter as we go our separate ways ,
but there's so much we're learning and we can not be afraid.
There's a world outside our door and nothing in our way ,
but if it's not what we're looking for , we'll meet again someday.

I can’t remember how all the times I’ve tried to tell myself
to hold on to these memories as they pass.

Soon all the joy that pours from everything makes fountains of your eyes
because you finally understand the movement of a hand waving goodbye.

We said our good-byes and when you were almost gone ,
you turned and gave me one more look … the look that said it all.
Everything was going to be okay.

I’m glad we had the times together
just to laugh and sing a song ,
seems like we just got started and then before you know it ,
the times we had together were gone.

If time slips away and you haven't heard from me , always remember that our bond is more than just words. It's a feeling of togetherness in our hearts and soul.

I want to remember how you’ve made me laugh , and sometimes cry , and I never want to forget how special and different you are. And how you touched my life in a way that no one else ever could.

Someday , when we both reminisce we'll both say ,
' There wasn't too much we missed , ' and through the tears
we'll smile when we recall we had it all for just a moment.

Take my blessings with you
and be sure to keep in touch ,
take care of yourself - be good to yourself
and remember , you'll be missed so much.

* Everything changes eventually , that's just the way life is , and you have no control over it. Like .. suddenly people who you think are always going to be there , they disappear.
You know , people die and they move away ... and they grow up. - Dawson's Creek

No matter the distance between us
Or if changes begin to start
We’ll be best friends forever
Cause nothing can keep us apart

We can never say how far our friendship would go
and how long we'd stay together
All I know is that even when we’re miles apart
You’ll still be my best friend forever

I’ve had many departures in my life.
But I have never found the good in good-bye or the fair in farewell.

How do I say good-bye to what we had ,
the good times that made us laugh outweigh the bad.
I thought we’d get to see forever , but forever’s gone away.
It’s so hard to say good-bye to yesterday.

Never say good-bye because saying good-bye means going away ,
and going away means forgetting.

I’ve learned that good-byes will always hurt ;
pictures will never replace having been there ;
memories , good or bad , will bring tears ;
and words can n e v e r replace feelings.

Even though we say good-bye , remember: we still watch the same sunset.

I miss you , CHOY MEI PO ;(

:(

Today I heard something about my secondary school teacher Puan Ng Kit Chin.
She patient's condition worsen :( when I heard that , I'm feel very sad.
She was my math teacher when form 5.
She was a good , duteous and cute teacher.
Nowadays , she very exhausting.
When I heard she news , I almost want cry.
God bless you always.
Don't abandon , keep going on.

LOVE YOU , PUAN NG KIT CHIN !

What do you do when you're unhappy ?

HelloWorld.

To worry about tomorrow is to be unhappy today.

It's like impossible to walk rapidly and be unhappy.

What have I been doing these two days ?

I've been to malls and met my good friends , who is FOOD.

Ask me what's my favourite food ! I like to eat everything.

What do you do when you're unhappy ?

I play with my fist in my favourite sport but I don't really show it because it's my favourite sport !

Only the person who coaches me knows when I'm okay and not.

Don't judge me tomorrow by the way I'm acting today.

GoodbyeWorld.

loveee , caryn.

"keep up the updates,keep up the updates"
I'm updating , okay :D before I disappear for a few days , and people start complaining. haha , you know who you people are laaa :D


This morning , had tennis with Resha , Gary and Chelle . Resha came over to my place at 7.45 when I was having my breakfast. She had to wait for me to finish everything , before we left. haha =D So , chelle and I walked to her house with all our things and her mum took us to the club. All the courts were fully occupied when it's a weekday -.-
Resha managed to book a court , so yeah.

After tennis ,went to Resha's place since she hasn't eaten her breakfast yet. Crazy kid ,I told you. She doesn't need breakfast before any outdoor activities. Played Ps2 in her house for an hour, and walked home laterr . French fries , french fries. now , I believe what hui yi was saying that time. It causes cancer :O
at least i updated (:
loveee , caryn.

The world's changing, I can't hide myself from that fact.

Things will never go how you wished it will go ,
maybe it would ,
but it won't last. Everything is changing now.
I'm just an idiot now. But at least i know ,
things that people try to keep it away.


I'm too imperfect. But isn't that known as human being ? I am one.
put all the blames on me , I am willing to take it.
I mean it now.
Nobody would understand it unless you've been through it.
one by one , I go through obtacles in life but this time ,
I can't do anything to make things back like how it used to be.
Because I'm just an idiot.

Fun da Mental

Wachaaa !

I've been watching a lot of movies lately ..

Omg I cried like shit watching My sister's keeper.
Cried as in cried. Not tearing. CRIED ! Like someone died. I had to wash my face twice because my face was like a mini ocean. Haha

Jennifer's body was funny and weird. I think the only relevant part was that they showed how vulnerable guys really are. Which is very true. Hahaaa. A little boobies here and there ... BAM ! They are like puppets.
And I cried. The part when Chip died. So sad.

I watched Marley and me too.
The whole plot was dull. Not very bad but pretty boring. But the ending was very emotional.
I cried like I would at a funeral. Again.

Oh ! Mr Magorium's Wonder Emporium was nice.
Very whimsical. But very sad.
I cried like hell. Again.

You can really tell I'm an emotional wreck. Haha. But I can be feisty like Bruce Lee too ! Well .. everyone should cry once in a while. Does the tear ducts good.

I'm starting to wonder if anyone actually reads my blog besides a few i know. Seriously .. I find this blog very uninteractive. I'm gonna come up with an idea. Soon. To BAZOOM this blog.

Love. Rach

Mandi

Happy birthday MANDY !

I wanted to wait till I could use my laptop so that I could include a picture in this post but I guess that can't wait.

Well , I've known Mandy since we were 7. She's the friend who would say I hate you. You suck. F*** you. Calls me stupid and a moron. It takes a certain level of friendship to take that in. Like our friendship. We've almost achieved nirvana. ahahaha. Funny.

She's one of the easiest person to talk to. We can talk on the phone for hours , till my phone is on the verge of burning into flames.

There's a reason why we are able to keep this bond for so long. She's thinks I bully her. But she bullies me more!

Anyways, just know that I'll always have your back. If you're unhappy about anything, let me know. I just bought a sharp chopper :)

Love you sucker !

Love. Rach

DISAPPOINTMENT

All I need is a tub of ice-cream & my Muffin.

And I'll be alright.

Good game.

Unspoken.

Its sound , its simple.

Its words , touching.

The feeling , moving.

If it touches , it touches you.

If it fixes , it fixes you.

If you feel , feel the pain.

If you learn , learn the meaning.

If its a note , its for you.

Coldplay - See You Soon.

So you lost your trust
And you never should have , you never should have
Don't break your back if you ever see this
But don't answer that
In a bullet proof vest
With the windows all closed , I'll be doing my best
And I'll see you soon
In a telescope lens
And all you want is friends
I'll see you soon


So they came for you
They come snapping at your heels
They come snapping at your heels
But don't break your back if you ever heard this
But don't answer that
Cause in a bullet prove vest
With the windows all closed ,I'll be doing my best
And I'll see you soon
In a telescope lens
When all you want is friends
I'll see you soon.


No , you lost your trust
No , you lost your trust
No , don't lose your trust
No , don't lose your trust


I'll see you soon.

While waiting for my friend to brush her teeth...


Hello !


I can't believe that this week is almost over.
You have no idea how long I have waited for this week and now its over.
Devastating.
Is it normal for a person to feel like it is already the end of the year but it's only just the beginning.
It sucks.

Okay. I have really nothing to say right now.
Unless you would like to talk about the weather.
The weather is crazy ! Hazardous.

Gotta run.
My friend is back !


CHEERS.

I Tried To Tell You.

" Whatever you do in life will be insignificant , but it is important that you do it because nobody else will. "
- Remember Me

I tell you ,
When you walk , you won't walk alone.
When you fall , you won't fall alone.
When you cry , you won't cry alone.
When you're alone , you're not alone.
I tell you ... everything I know.

-----------------------------------

I think I've spent enough time trying to say something here.
Its the power of coffee , confusion , and a wrong decision.

Cheers.

Stuck In A Moment You Can't Get Out

" Our fingerprints don't fade from the lives we touch "
- Remember Me.

As yours is imprinted on me ,
I hope I left a mark on you ,
One you will cherish and one you will remember ,
One you will keep forever.
And I know one day you will have to go ,
I can only wish it will guide you home.

-----------------

I have failed to accomplish everything I planned to accomplished this weekend.
I guess its just like any other weekend.


Matches are played because of the many possibilities is brings.
Nothing is ever too sure and anything is possible.
Viva Espana !




Okay. I don't speak much about my life.
Maybe because I have nothing much to tell , or maybe because I find it hard to tell.
Whatever it is , I just hope to have a story in the end.
Everybody has a story to tell.





I never thought you were a fool ,
But darling look at you ,
You gotta stand up straight and carry your own weight
These tears are going nowhere , baby


You gotta get yourself together
You've got yourself stuck in a moment
And now you can't get out of it
Don't say later will be better
Now you're stuck in a moment
You can't get out.

CHEERS.

Seven Day Mile

' Occasionally in life there are those moments of unutterable fulfillment which cannot completely explained by those symbol called words. Their meanings can only be articulated in the inaudible language of the heart. '
- Martin Luther King , Jr.

' Just living is not enough. One must have sunshine , freedom , and a little flower '
- Hans Christian Anderson

' Life is not always fair. Sometimes you can get a splinter even sliding down a rainbow '
- Terri Guilemets.

Its not always sunshine.
Its not always clear skies.
Its not always smiles.
Its not what we expect it to be.
Its life.

But we'll always have someone.
To be our sunshine.
To be our white clouds.
To go through the unexpected with you.
There's always someone who gives you a reason to smile.
So , smile... and mean it.

Its a sea ever churning tides

In the sureness of time
And our words will repeat now and forever again
Well this might take awhile to figure out
So don't rush it
And hold your head right through the doubt
' Cause its just a matter of time
You've been running so fast
Its the seven day mile
Has you torn in - between here and running away.

CHEERS.

I Don't Have To , But I Want To.

When everything has taken its toll ,
Would you be my strength ?


Sometimes I wish I was stronger ,
So that I can take on what this world has to give.
Sometimes I wish I was wiser ,
So that I wouldn't feel like my head is about to fall off if i had gotten enough sleep.
Sometimes I wish time would slow down ,
So that I wouldn't feel like I have to live each day as the last.
Sometimes I wish I do not have to want to be strong for you ,
So that I wouldn't have to go beyond myself to make you smile tomorrow.



Push me till I have to fly
I've shed my skin , my scars
Take me deep out past the lights
Where nothing dims these stars , nothing dims these stars.

CHEERS.
