If you have tried but failed, you aren't necessarily a loser. You just haven't succeeded YET. :)




I can only imagine what it feels like to stand on the podium biting the hard earned medal, on the biggest most prestigious sporting stage of them all. The feeling of joy, expression of satisfaction. What I wouldn't give to experience it !

They say ignorance is bliss. I say, bullshit.

Wouldn't it be nice, to be living with no concerns, no responsibilities, no worries? To be living in a world where your only responsibility is to have fun and make friends? Well, I've lived a life full of those thanks to the sacrifices of my parents. At some point in your life, they wont be there to protect you like before, and when the time comes, we must be ready. But, life ain't always all sunshine and rainbows. Times have changed. We're going to be adults soon and we've got to learn to bear more responsibilities and burdens. We can't live under the wing of our parents for the rest of our lives people, its time to take flight. So if you know what you're worth, then go out and get what you're worth.

i've just been slapped hard with the cruel reality of my life.
yes, my life is different from yours.

I've been feeling like shit recently. And i don't even know why.

Okay, i went swimming in the morning yesterday, and jun jie asked me if i wanted to swim / run with him later in the late afternoon. So i went swimming again in the late afternoon, and then ran to Chinese garden right after swimming, followed by some stair climbing. I feel so tired now. T_T

Anyway, I just thought I'd type out some random thoughts that's been lingering around in my mind for awhile.

The things we can achieve with our bodies, limitless. We can effortlessly walk, run, swim, cycle, roller blade, etc etc. because we have proper and functioning bodies. I was just thinking, on that fateful day when old age catches up on me, the day when I'm wheelchair bound, or just lying in my bed, the day when I can no longer afford the strength to do all these things, how would my life be like? Would i still be happy and cheerful? Would i still be satisfied and contented?

Death is a disease that everybody has, no one escapes it, and it creeps up on us with each passing day. We should all strive to achieve what we can, while we can, with the short duration of our lives. Do we want to waste precious days with meaningless unproductive things? Or do we want to use our precious days in the pursuit of our dreams and ambitions? Choose one, because we don't have much time :)
