It feels like home

The occasion

It was such a hectic occasion but it's finally done.

Have shifted majority of my (and my brother's) stuff to our new flat!

The people

The movers were great help and such kind souls....it didn't cost that much either.

And I just can't thank my friends enough for coming over to lend a helping hand. There were loads to move and it was no joke. My brother's new room is filled up with boxes but i'm sure we'll sort it out in due course.

and finally....The place

It is gorgeous and most of all, it already feels like home.

I know I would look forward to coming home to this place after work everyday of the next few years.

Will definitely post the pics up when I've unpack all my stuffs properly.

It will be the beginning of a great chapter of my life! Can't wait! *beam*

Somethings are better left alone

It hurts when you hear something bad is said about you when it's actually untrue.

And it hurts even more that you are incapable of defending yourself simply because they choose to believe the other or not take sides.

To be downright frank, after all the experiences I've encountered, I no longer give a damn what she thinks. The issue is such a meagre part of life and such a waste of my time. How can she expect to salvage the situation when she f***s it all up again herself?

This is such a primary school scenario and I can't believe it's happening to me at this age. That is WHY I'm finally leaving. Not taking no more s*** from her.

This is WHY one should never just stick to his/her own clique. There're more people out there who'll appreciate you for who you really are. And there are those who will see the bad in you but still stick by you and guide you to be better.

Anyway, enough of this silliness. I'm going to bed.

Spam in Blogs??!!

Gimme a break!!

The world would be a better place.......

..........if people could just learn to let go.

My friends and I were making our way back to Glasgow from our trip to the Isle of Arran, last Saturday evening. We were alighting the ferry that was bringing us back from Arran to the mainland jetty, Ardrossan, where we were to catch a train back to the city centre. There were easily more than 100 passengers disembarking the ferry when all of a sudden, a man struck another with a bottle on his head! The bottle cracked in the most awful of sounds....both men, victim and culprit, were right beside my friends and I when the whole incident took place....I was dumbstruck, shell-shocked, momentarily traumatised, in utter disbelief of what had just happened...!

The attacker shouted some abuse right after bottling the man, accusing the victim of extreme injustice, which we later found out was the act of throwing chips at the attacker's nephew. It's tempting to say that the victim brought it upon himself for provoking the wrong person but no one deserves to be bottled deliberately on the head on such meager grounds. It's pathetic and absolutely distasteful, if you ask me.

...which leads me to the thought that life would be much easier (and safer!) if people learnt to let go of grudges and resentment, and simply learn to take a breather, forgive and forget. Correct me if I'm wrong but don't most crimes, arguments, fallouts stem from the inability of people to make peace with their loss and to refuse revenge and retaliation. Most of the time, the outcome is never worth the fight in the first place.

The attacker's group soon left the scene, no doubt thinking he was the king of all kings. On the contrary, the friend of the bleeding man started harrassing the public by pacing up and down the train terminal shouting, 'Who dares bottle my friend? Why not take on me instead?'. Clearly, he wanted his piece of revenge and was willing to let it out on anyone, whether or not he was involved in the first place.

Thank God, the train came soon after. We were more than glad to leave the site.
