circle of life, downs then ups

Bittorrent is gradually testing my patience. I still don't quite understand the workings of it. I wanted to download The OC Season 3, and after one day of downloading, it is still not done plus many prob occured during that time. Wtf? Can somebody be kind enough to guide me through this bittorrent shyt? And what other sites are available to download the torrent files besides the ones u find in google?

I hear fireworks outside my window.. Not a special occasion today. Hmm.. I love fireworks. Maybe because i love festives and celebrations, just the sound of fireworks can make me happy. :)

Went to The Curve with Reen and Liann today. I swear, shopping makes me high. Didn't buy much, although i'm looking for quite a few things right now. Like a new wallet, bags, cropped long-sleeve cardigans, jeans, just to name a few. Is there any place in particular that sells nice cropped cardigans? Those without buttons that you tie infront. Saw one today, it's elbow-length but only comes in white, light pink and light yellow. Not exactly my cup of tea. Though i wouldn't mind the white one, the price is pretty cheap too. Maybe next time.

My pretty top.

a bit blurry..

A good buy! ;)
It's from Urban & Co.

More earrings for my collection :)

unexpected

Oh my, i just heard the news from my mother that my cousin has Villonodular Synovitis on her knees. It is an uncommon disease that usually affects the hip or the knee or other parts of your joints. You can read more about the disease here. And the worst part of this disease is that, no one knows exactly what the cause of it is.


She's only 15. :(

Poor dear. She will have to forgo her trip to Shanghai with us next month and go for a surgery. And i was so looking forward to be holidaying with her. We always have so much fun going on holidays together. Sigh.. But no matter what, her health and well being comes first. Take care girl!

I hope i'll get to go and visit her one of these days.

When I am continuously being battered by the storms of life, and my very spirit is ebbing away, then all I need to do is to hang on to that gift called 'Faith', that one support which will weather out the storms. Faith requires not logic but just belief. Believing in the self and the strength that lies within. Faith is the seed of all miracles and the foundation for making the impossible possible.

Dance of the Rainbow

I finally finished reading the sixth Harry Potter book yesterday. Wow. HP never cease to amaze and take your breath away. Considering i already knew what was going to happen in that book, but that didn't bother me too much. The characters in this book seemed to have grown so much compared to the last book. JK Rowling really has this way of sucking you into the plot and make you feel as though you're living in it.

I love Harry Potter books. Ooh..i can't wait for the movie in November! I am sure many would have already seen the trailer of the movie, although i thought Cedric Diggory should be much more good looking than that, just like Sirius Black, but i don't care. Woohoo, i can't wait i can't wait! ;)

My brother is currently in Alor Setar for his MSSM competition, i really do hope he'll come home with a medal. :) But even if he doesn't, my whole family still thinks he's gold.

All the best little brother!

When there is tolerance, you are able to remain quiet and happy inside.
One who has tolerance has the power to accept and accommodate all situations.
Only when you are content internally can there be tolerance.
When you are content, then just like a mother who has love for her child, there is no limit to tolerance.

Some living value that is useful for our daily lives.

all everyone needs is a little attention

Yes, 4 days into my 3 and a half months bumming period and i am in such a holiday mood! *wheee..!* Nothing to shout about really, but i have already finished the 5th book of Harry Potter to allow a proper continuation to the 6th book. So far so good. :)

It is the time of the month again. One where my moods get all mixed up and every little detail gets magnified into 1000x larger than it seems. But, i'm doing pretty well in controlling these idiotic emotions, and *crosses-fingers* hope it ends reaally soon. Please do.

I will be going for the premier of Flight Plan in about half an hours time, in which now i am in simon's house waiting for that monster to finish powdering himself. Lol. Just kidding. For those who knows simon's bathing regime, you'll know the amount of time he spents in the bathroom each time. Tsk. I am double the times better. *ngeks* ;p

Oh gosh, in merely just 4 days, i have ceased to be able to string proper sentences to form a decent paragragh together. Haha.. Have to write more often before i become brain dead by the end of my holidays.

watch this!

I got this from simon's sister's site, hope you don't mind sheryl! :p

Really funny and a great exam reliever.

waiting by the sidelines

There is so many things i cannot wait to do after my exams end.

*I cannot wait to read Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince, which i have put off reading since the first day as i know i will never be able to read my notes if i start with HP. And also many other novels that i discovered i had once i told myself i cannot pick up another novel until i finish my exams. grrr

*I cannot wait to spend more time with simon and my girls too. Eating, yumcha-ing, talking about all sorts of things.

*I cannot wait to wake up without the help of an alarm clock.

*I cannot wait to watch tv without feeling guilty. Haha. i am a self proclaim tv/potato couch.

*I cannot wait to learn how to play google earth which i just downloaded, and use photoshop.

*I cannot wait to get bittorent so that i can download The OC, LagunaBeach, OneTreeHill and all the other series which i have yet to watch.

*And lastly, i cannot wait to be able to dress up and strut down the malls with my girlies in tow. I have been wearing bigTs and shorts practically everyday for the past week or so, not considering the 2 and a half hours of exams.

Oh gosh. Won't friday come already?

See the World like Lovers do

Once again, let me conclude - i, SueLynn am NOT an Auntie.
Case closed. :)

~*~

Two papers down, four more to go. Tomorrow will be the start of all the 'headache' papers, which surprisingly i am not feeling much about. Unfortunately. Usually during any exams i will get all worked up and push myself to study like there is no tomorrow. However, not this time. My PR paper is tomorrow and until now, all i have done is sit around the house watching tv and going online. There is something seriously wrong here. I even contemplated on getting a nice nap instead of brushing up on my PR notes.

Gosh, i really really do hope that all goes well during my exams although i highly doubt it. *prays* *prays* *prays*

Yesterday was my 2 years mark with simon. Ahh, so fast two years flew by just like that. I don't regret anything and I am very happy at how much we have accomplished together in just merely two years. Yes, we do have our occasional downs but these are the times that taught us more about each other and gave us new perspectives to look at and contemplate in life. We do still have a long way more to go, and alot more for us to accomplish, but no matter what, i have faith that we will be able to achieve the things we want to. In life and in love.

Because we are more than just a couple, we are best friends. :)

auntie i am not !

About a month ago, i went over to the National University of Singapore to witness their National Rag and Flag day which my sister was a part of. We had to sit on the terace like stands facing the field to watch all the floats taking part in it. While the procession was taking place, there was this pretty little girl standing behind me trying very hard to see all the going ons on the field. So, me being nice and sweet seeing how adorable she was, asked her if she wanted to come in front of me instead.

She looked at me shyly and then an older woman who was chaperoning her (or some sort, could be a family member, but definitely too old to be her mom) asked her again, "Ya, do you want to go in front of Auntie?"

AUNTIEEE????????

OMG, horror of all horrors! Which part of me looks like an auntie at that time?? I was wearing a nice shirt with short skirt, and was sitting next to my 88 year old grandmother. That pretty much highlighted my youthfulness no?

After hearing that, with my smile still plastered on my face though i was cussing all the way inside, i waited for that little girls answer. Try as i might, i cannot imagine myself looking like an auntie, especially not then! I am only 19. That is also not until the end November. *sniffs*

Sigh, the pleasures of growing old - er, and people reminding you of it.
Repeat after me, SueLynn is NOT an Auntie. Thank you.

Poem by Jelaluddin Rumi

I read this on YasminAhmad's blog and it immediately touched me.

"The minute i heard my first love story,
I started looking for you, not knowing how blind that was.
Lovers don't finally meet somewhere,
They are in each other all along."

Beautiful. :)

too much thinking for me

I think i'm facing a case of insomnia. Every night after my nightly prayers, i get all cosy up in bed, getting ready to sleep, but to no avail. I end up wide awake as ever. That's the time when my mind starts running as wild as ever. I have realised that i do over analyze things. Especially the littlest things in particular. And when i realise that i'm starting to think of nonsensical things, i tried counting sheeps.

One sheep..... what to give him? handmake it? or buy?
Two sheeps.... i have not pen down anything for almost a week
Three sheeps.. why can't i sleep? i should write about this
Four sheeps... concentrate...!!
.
.
Twenty sheeps..i should really stop wasting my time during the day time and try to study harder

Argh! Then my head gets all strain, i toss and turn like crazy.. Thankfully, i did slowly doze off to sleep. And my plan for waking up earlier, like 10am to study failed miserably again.

*~*

Staying at home almost everyday is making me think so darn much. So much so to the point of where i drive myself nuts with all sorts of stupid thoughts. But not all thoughts make no sense though. This sometimes makes me feel a little rejected and somewhat unloved. Yes yes, i know, it's a phase everyone will go through once in a while for a breather. Sigh. Where's the romance in my life? I crave to be swept off my feet.

Right now!
