12.12.12


These past two weeks or so have been so crazy.
First the car. Then the lighting at home. Then the laptop.
Money's going out faster than water it's so frustrating.
Laptop screen's been giving me some trouble for some months now. Two days back I couldn't open my files, documents, Skype, media player wasn't working and bla bla blah and I had to get it repaired coz all my study notes are in power point files.

So yesterday evening around five thirty I went over to Danga City Mall (in the pouring bloody rain. I don't understand why people use their hazard lights when it rains. Why? Why hazard lights? Just turn on your damn lights you don't need your hazard lights!) in the hope of getting it fixed. Found a reputable comp shop, told them the problem and apparently there was a virus and the laptop had to be reformatted. Left it with them after telling them over and over to back up ALL my stuff and to call me as soon as they could possibly get it done. Went back again today to collect it and it's as good as new now. 
Bought back Subway and Chatime for dinner. 

All I want to do is curl up under my comforter and sleep. So damn sleep deprived. I think we all are.
Still looking for an electrician who's actually free to come over and see to things.
Need to send the curtains in for a wash. Need to get the car serviced. I think by next week that'll be sorted. Then I'll have to clean up the place before I leave.
Lol it's so difficult having to juggle studies, exams, cooking, cleaning and maintenance of the apartment and the car all at one go. There's always something I have to see to, something that needs fixing or cleaning or doing.
I'm just really so very tired.
A friend of mine shared a link to a Bible Study site today. It was about forgiveness coz I'd recently put up a status about it.
And it really got me thinking.
I haven't really forgiven the people who've hurt me in my past.
The post I read, it said the whole concept of forgiving is to let go of what was and embrace what is. And by forgiving, by letting it all go, you eventually forget it ever happened. The fact that you still remember what happened to you all those weeks or months or years ago goes to show that you haven't forgiven the people involved in your past. 
And it's true.
Every time I think about what happened I get so angry. Every time I see them, I remember what happened all those months ago and I manifest hatred. Hatred and anger. All because I haven't forgotten. I haven't forgiven.
Three people.
I need to work my way around forgiving them even if they're not sorry.
That's what it says in Mark 11:25 anyway.
That's what got me thinking this morning.
Just three people...

Table Topics: Judgement & Understanding

Took one of my classmates out today coz she needed to get some things. She's been through a lot. Nothing I will disclose here but we had a pretty long chat in the car once we got back. And it's really true what they say about never judging someone before getting to know them. She opened up to me about everything that was going on. How she felt about things. How she was dealing with things. And at the end of the day it all boils down to understanding. There's a reason behind the things people do. It's simply a matter of accepting that reason and understanding them for it and them helping them get through it. You hear stories about married couples going through a divorce. It's really not an option anyone should think about after marriage. After all it's for better or for worse, right? But what if sometimes it becomes too much to bear? What if sometimes things get impossible to handle? What if that's the reason divorces happen in the first plac

To Date.

I've recently been nominated for the Liebster Blog Award thanks to a friend of mine I've only known via Facebook for some years now. The blog post for that is still being drafted. I've been posed some pretty tricky questions /;) Haven't been blogging as frequently as I used to coz I didn't bring my laptop back home this time round. Didn't think I'd have much use for it. Things have been a little...crazy here to say the least. I'm actually twenty-one now. Though I must say, the word 'freedom' was never synonymous with this age. All I ever related to this milestone was responsibility. Funny. It's been such a rollercoaster ride of emotions. I could never completely describe it. I've been thinking about how I've celebrated my birthdays all these years. Two birthdays I celebrated away from home. My eighteenth, which was in the UK with Aunty M and Uncle T, and my twentieth, which was in Johor with my classmates and a once

Dubai

Dubai was actually a layover. Since I have friends there I decided to spend a few days with them before flying out to London.  I took Emirates to and from Dubai & the UK & it was great. The unlimited wine was a major plus :P Only spent about 3 days in Dubai so I saw only a few of the major must-see spots.  My friend picked me up from the airport & we went to her place first. It was about 20 minutes away. More depending on traffic. Roads are very broad and each side has 6 lanes with a minimum of 3 on average. You see a lot of SUVs there. There's a lot of American influence. The UAE doesn't have their own national car.  It felt a lot like being in KL at first. Only after a while I started taking in the difference. Plenty of skyscrapers everywhere. But unlike KL, buildings here are built much closer together. & there is a LOT of development going on, still.  After washing up at home, we headed out to the Burj. The entrance is within the Dubai Mal
