There are times when I am nice and there are time I am not. Doesn't mean when I say I'm not nice, I'm mean or anything. It just means that I tend to be less nice in some ways. I tend to take things far, being ignorant, proud, insensitive and maybe reckless. These are just some examples of what I mean.. It usually takes me a while to realise but by the time do, you can say it's alr too late. I do apologise, but words said can't be unspoken, things that happened can't be undone. And the feeling of guilt isn't that nice either, especially when you are or trying to be a good guy. These small things matters. Likewise, small things that you do in life to others matters too. Asking if he or she is okay when they act differently, smiling to others, opening the door for others etc. These small gestures may not seem much, but they count and may even be turning point of someone's day. Have the initiative and be more appreciative. That's what I feel is important in life. Be the unsound hero that everybody needs. Be the kind of person whom you feel will make someone's life better, be it one or many, big or small. Impact others in ways you never imagine possible. Just make a difference :)
Sooo I failed my 1.02 practical. I was expecting that actually when I got onto the bike and started riding a few rounds. I forgot when to pull in what. Got my clutch all over. But other than that, all was okay i guess. But because I forgot my foundation, the instructor didnt pass me.
I understood that. At least I had a refresher and got an extra course around the circuit, which he wasnt suppose to do. So in the end, I was fine with me failing. I mean, learn from my mistakes. Afterwards, when topping up my acc, I reaslised how much one prac costed.
But then again, there're was a reason why I took up OT at work whenever I could, especially recently. 2-3h of OT for 100min of practical. It may be expensive, but so are other things in life. I'll have to embrace the fact and do the best I can can and make the best with what is given to me and what I have in my hands. And so, just as I came out of BBDC, I got a msg from Kristal. Dinner was cancelled cause she wasn't feeling well~ just when I thought at at least meeting up with her would make my day... though replying her and seemed like it was all fine, behind the phone is an frustrated guy. Not only was I having a not so good day, it wasn't ending well too. Sighhh what a day. So I asked Fizou out to exercise. Wahh then this guy another one. His replies make me pek chek sia. Rabakk. So end up i took a nap to relax and calm down. Then woke up to pray Maghrib then went to the mosque to clear my mind. I was in my running attire so i could go run straight afterwards. At about 9, i called Fizou down to see if he still wanna run. He came down looking fine 😉 so we went for a slow run to bt batok then back to cck. Boy was I out of breath. The long jubilee weekend caused me to gain 3kilos and made my fitness worse. Sighh. We went to the fitness corner opp my block and worked out a bit. Still have my strength, but my endurance is shit now. Hahahaha. Gotta slowly build momentum to a balanced and healthy lifestyle. Heheh. But at least my day didnt end on a too bad of a note ☺
The ABCs of life. Attitude, Beliefs & Character. Attitude towards others, challenges in life and situations that are laid out in front of you. How we approach and handle all these are the basics that we should already be familiar with in life. At least 10 years of living should have exposed us to more than enough life-scenarios to allow us to learn from. We learn how to adjust our attitude according to situation, who we are with, when we are doing what, how we are conducting it etc. However, feelings in our hearts plays a large role in the attitude that we display in certain situations. And because of these feelings, we make inappropriate decisions. Allowing our emotions to overwhelm our minds and clouding our decision making. Be it the emotions we show to others, the words that we say or the actions that we take. We need to understand that staying calm is paramount when doing anything. I guess I was brought up that wasy unknowingly. I learnt that myself as well. In life, we learn from our actions and mistakes, as well as others'. We learn from everything and everyone, and put together what we feel is best for ourselves, with the guidance of others as well. We may not be right all the time and have to learn to give in to others. Even if we are not in the wrong, giving in to others is the right thing to do in order to prevent any tension from building between two parties or more. I just hope that in time, everyone will have the courtesy to develop the appropriate attitude in life...
