Ello ♥ Here's wishing everyone a wonderful 2011 :)

Aww Crap =.=" I'm shamelessly three (03) days late ! 

It must be all the lazing around, they are taking its toll on me! 

And Aww crapx2, i just realised i inserted the wrong year as the footer for my picture below! ): 

Fml. T.T

Ever since i left secondary school, i came to my senses that living (in particular, Singapore) requires a lot of sacrifices. As the old saying goes "Giving and taking is the au' natural". When i chose my current company as my internship company, i am sacrifying what could be a better deal at another company, say Resorts World (this is just an example, it does not express any interest or connection towards RWS)? When you get up in the morning, take a freaking 1 hour to mix and match before finally deciding on a set of outfit for work - you may not realise it but you are actually taking a gamble.
 Scenario 1: After a long and painful 45 minutes of mixing leopard prints with polka dots, you decided that wearing your cut-out hole jeans with your leopard prints camisole would be your best bet. When you reach the office, your client decided to have a meet up in the noon to discuss on the finalization of the project. You went, reached punctually, prepared all the necessary documents and did an impressive presentation just to know that your client had just decided to work with another POC. You are itching to know why. Millions of question marks in your head. You are perplexed, it was the project you had 99% confidence in clinching, you proposed a wonderful concept so why didn't you get the project? With a burning curiosity and a baffled mind, you summoned your courage and blurred out "Hi Mr XXX, thank you for informing me :) May i know your reason being? " And the answer you received was: " I would very much prefer to have my project handled by a serious and down to earth person. I'm too old for risks. "

That's it. Fyl X1000000. If you had chosen to wear a simple workdress that day, you would have easily gotten that project - gotten everything in your hands. When we choose to use our time to hang out with dear friends, we are sacrifying our time for our friends. IF we did not take this option, our time could have been spent more wisely.  In other words, opportunity cost. When i chose to stayover at my boyfriend's house, my opportunity cost is lost. This means i have possibly lost some quality time with my family. Or precious time playing pool. Or visiting 2ne1 in korea. (lol.)

..............that brings me to my point.
We have all wasted so much time. So much opportunity costs in year 2010. All the while regreting at our own silly decisions, feeling remorseful for my actions etc. But this is human behavior isnt' it? We think twice - sometimes carefully but not wisely, we act and we regret.

AND.......

It's time to cast away all these destructing thoughts!

AND.....

Blame no one but yourself!

 Start learning on your own mistakes, set your insight further, strive harder and GO!!!!!

2011 will be a better year!

Filled with lots of learning experience...

Lots of love, care and concern!..

and most importantly........

PEACE :)

It's only been 5 days and i've been reading too many news, nerve wrecking news.. Floods, floods and more floods. Strikes, Riots and Massacre... It's freaks me out.

I wish for LOVE and SAFETY for every single living thing in this world.
I pray for a peaceful world.
Most essentially,
I pray for the safety of these victims.. And for them to hold on..and get it through.

With love,
Sarah
