Its late, but:



When we can't access our inner resources, we come to the flawed conclusion that happiness and fulfillment comeonly from external events. That's because external events usually bring with them some sort of change. And so we've learned to rely on circumstances outside ourselves for forward or backward momentum as we hurtle through life. But we don't have to do that any longer. We can learn to be the catalysts for our own change.

Thank you to all of you who have given the thumbs up regarding my new layout, on my tagboard and msn and such related!! Ehon, Tiang, Passerby(whothe? Thanks!:)), Nadia, Chewy, Christine, Marilou, Marianne, Sangeetha, Uriel, Emily, Tan, Jeff, OJ. Thanks in multitudes! I was so nervous, honestly!

Layouts have never really been my thing, but with Fiona's tremendous help, it was a cinch. That woman has more talent in doing these kinda things in her pinky than I have overall. All i did was the banner and icon *grin*

DO you know how lazy Ive been? Aside from church related functions, Ive been so introverted lately. I think the whole semester at university went by in a blur, and it was such a whirlwind of a semester that I really needed to just lay back and catch my breath.

Yesterday was a blast. I spent the whole day socializing and just chilling, which was a vast imporvement over my antisocial behaviour. Spent the morning helping mom run errands, then the afternoon was so beautifully nostalgic, an afternoon spent cathcing up with darling Emily and Jon. Emily made me watch Shutter! AH! Scared me like the lil girl I am. But she bribed me with chocolates. Delicious. Caught up with various people I saw at the mall and yayasan and varios places. Everyone looks so grown up. Or maybe Im just stuck in a rut. Haha. That was sweet.

Came home and saw Matet! We gotta hang one day, girl.

Then the second i stepped home, I got a surprise phone call from an old friend, Cherry! OMG! She's in Brunei. That blew my mind away. Cant wait to see her.

Then, i decided not to go out at ALL at night. However, Jasmine and Ivy changed my minds and I went back to the mall again. I think the shop people were prolly thinking: ooh, she was here earlier...:P

Drank at Coffee..ZOne?Bean? I forget. :D Met Tan and Yen! yay! Its like a culture shock almost.

Im just recapping my day because it was a really tiring yet fun day. See!? I can be social when I want to be! :P

Also, GRETCHEL JUST FREAKING CONFIRMED THE PLANS! *leaps for joy* Yay! I get to see her again! I miss my old Curtin hostel crowd. You know, the people who are there for u 24/7 and see you in pjs and messy bedhead hair at hostels and are just..there.

Being back in Brunei is so...serene...compared to the stupidityandsillynessandfunnness back home. Its fun here, yeah, but its a different kind of fun. Kind of refreshing, really. And after that hurricane semester, perhaps a little serenity is just what I need. =D
