The best way to avoid regrets is to face problems

Everyone have the power to make a choice, a decision. This power is the most powerful, and should not be taken lightly. The right choices will bring life to the individual, but the wrong choice can utterly destroy a persons life. It is no joke. ha ha. People are constantly making choices everyday. Yet, we do not emphasize it as important. However people make a big deal about the subcategories of choice which is the result of the choice made such as stealing, lying, adultery and love.

A smile can make a day for another person, a tear can ruin a day for everyone present.
Choose which outcome you want.
Choose how you want it to happen.
Choose when you want it to happen.

Sometimes, people fail to think highly of themselves. It is a matter of choice. Your choice holds your future.

Missing the mooncake festival which was on Monday. I basically did nothing for the event.. didn't even have mooncakes. I spent that night playing badminton, sweating it all out. Arrived home at 12pm and suffered from body ache for the next few days.

All that aside, today I ate ice cream. It's nice. bleh. Not that I want to give credit to those that made it but they deserved it. Have you heard of orange and pear ice cream. I for one have not, till I tried them today. It's nice. =) oh and before that, I went with Da Yong to distribute my surveys for my marketing research assignment. So.. my samples for the day was Jia Huei, Yee Fang, Jimmy, Jaclyn, Marcus and Cheah Yen. Great bunch of people.

In the afternoon, I went to the library to do some research on a furniture company named Freedom. It was for my international marketing assignment and I am responsible for looking and the strength and weaknesses of the company. I had a game of chess.=) It's cool that in the 3rd floor of the curtin library there is a chessboard printed onto the table. I want that too.

And so..... I started. Did some work but ended up surfing the net. ugh bad habit. ~ Good thing I didnt start to watch youtube.

At around 5-6pm Melvin, Jack, Da Yong and I went to buy groceries.
The results..,

Full stomachs

Group photo ~

So happy to be filled.haha.Instant noodles does not work the same way. No satisfaction at all. =)

Picture perfect

If you saw something like this what do you see first. What would catch your attention first.

The mansion behind the trees or the little plant in the open space.

MOst likely its the plant. Conclusion: " You do not need to be grand or great to get attention. All you need is to be positioned at the right place at the right time."

The mansion is always still a mansion but because its behind the trees, and because of the lighting and the colour of the mansion, the mansion does not stand out. The plant on the other hand is still a small pathetic thing. Yet, we see it first because of how the photo is taken.

Interesting and amusing it is. Here are some quotes for comfort.
For the great, you can always tell yourself that.
For the less well off, you can always tell yourself that its not my time yet.

hmm just a random photo in my photo album. Found it interesting =). Not everyone might see the plant first but you should get my point.

I have not been blogging lately. *Self reminder*. I probably have zero readers right now. But its ok. It'll grow. Nothing much happening now. The storm is over, just a little more left to tutorial week free. I'm so looking forward to it cause of the ordeal I went through the past few days. 3 assignments back to back. It's crazy.
