'You could be happy'
'You could be happy, I hope you are. You made me happier than I have been by far, somehow everything I own smells of you, for the tiniest moment, its all not true' #lawschoollife #doggydays

Prioritise yourself
Take time to prioritize yourself
1. Take the time to occasionally remember that your needs are important and if you don’t make them a priority, no one else will. Take the time to understand those needs, and actively pursue them.
2. Evaluate those things in life that are causing you stress and consider the value of those things. Are they important? Is the stress of your own creation and within your power to control and change?
3. Ensure that you have a stretch of quiet alone time each day. It’s easy to get caught up in the action and noise of the day, but everyone needs a few moments to center and reset themselves; even if it’s just in the form of a long hot shower or a few moments outside. Take a moment to breathe and relax.
4. Get rid of any guilt you might carry for occasionally treating yourself. You don’t have to justify enjoying something or indulging in something that brings you happiness.
5. Understand that feeling that you deserve something doesn’t actually entitle you to it. If you’re unhappy with a situation in life, understand that you have to the power to change it, or at least your perspective on the matter.
6. Take time to do those things that make you feel better about yourself. Whether it’s an indulgent beauty routine or making sure that you exercise each day, the better you feel about yourself, the better you’ll make those around you feel.
7. Embrace your emotions if only so that you can let them go. Suppressing how you really feel about a situation only serves to undermine your happiness. Change begins with acceptance and understanding.
8. Remember that how others treat you is more often a reflection of who they are and not a reflection of who you are. It’s important to have an understanding of how others react to us but the opinions of others, especially strangers, should only carry so much weight –as in very little.
9. Acknowledge and appreciate those people and things which are positive and uplifting in your life. Find ways to show and remember that appreciation and commit yourself to that positivity.
10. Each day find something new to like about yourself and something you’d like to change. Cultivate the ability to understand the difference between the things you can change and the things you cannot, and learn to let those things go.
11. Don’t guilt yourself out of naps. Aside from the scientific evidence supporting the occasional short nap, sleep is awesome and serves to revitalize us and our efforts. Almost every situation seems better after a little rest.
12. Eat things that make you feel good. And I don’t mean eat things that make you lose weight per se; I mean eat things that make you feel good inside and out. Things that don’t weigh you down but that motivate and strengthen you. Weight is such a constant pressure these days that it’s easy to lose sight of what’s really important: being healthy and feeling good about yourself.
13. Remember that there are only three things in life you can control; what you think, what you say, and what you do.

If onlys
You only need the light when it's burning low
Only miss the sun when it starts to snow
Only know you love her when you let her go Only know you've been high when you're feeling low
Only hate the road when you’re missin' home
Only know you love her when you let her go And you let her go

Disconnection
Whatever happened to my pride, dignity and those halcyon days of yore? Crouching like a timid girl, apologising to everyone and having such low-self esteem .>=( Do I have an insurmountable amount of pride in my inner being? University days are sure stressing me out. Tis my first time blogging after a yawn of five months.

You're holding in your hands two halves of my heart
In my dreams
‘I wander tonight, in a curious slumber
My sleep is held captive by the man in the moon
He peeks through my window, while enchanting the room
Enticing my dreams, where a choir assembles
Fleeting Love
Will the love return?
When the other one has none
There’s an empty heart
But for whom does it belong
Love is fleeting all the time
I want to be in love once again...

Lessons I have learnt thus far, and a Happy Mother's Day
///Ode to my mother, a Proverbs 31 woman
Dear mom,
I can’t find the right words to express my immense gratitude to you. Though we are so distant in time and space, it always amazes me that you are always so concern about me. You are always there 24/7 for me and though I am as self-centred as a person can ever be, you halt your chores to be my listening ear. But really, there are days when I come back and just want to bury myself in my sheets and succumb to slumber. There are days when I step out of the house to try to fly but my boots will be filled with rain and it will be up to my knees in disappointment.
From young, I’ve always wondered why I had such a busy mother. I’ve been used to the countless times you disappeared to India or Bangkok because you were called up by your office. I attempted to seek solace from Ling but she didn’t offer much comfort. Both of us were just small children, new and inexperienced to the concept of you having to travel. I still vividly remember when there were times that we yearned for you to come back. We would sit by the cupboard where you hung your long dresses and smother it in kisses.
I remember the times we went to Botanical Gardens for our weekly stroll after church. It then progressed to cycling along the beach in East Coast Park. I will always remember how we felt as a family, how I felt in the family. ‘I think this is what life is worth living for’ was the phrase most commonly muttered.
Fast forward 7 years, and I ‘m 19, supposedly full of ambition and hope. You’ve brought me up well, in both wisdom and grace. Things are however, not so simple. Long gone are the carefree days where I will shuffle between my school, Methodist Girl’s School and my home. I am alas thrown into a town of a different dimension to that of Singapore. While you have spent two decades of your life instilling in me the correct values, I will spend my next three years abroad discovering why you carefully taught me these cardinal rules of life. Below are the 5 nuggets of wisdom that you have extracted from your experience
1. Love yourself, but place the needs of others above yourself
2. Always be prepared, polite and punctual
3. Aim high because you will never know how capable you are till you stretch your wings and soar
4. Studies first, but relationships and wellbeing come a close second
5. Be a lady of elegance and grace after God’s heart
I, however, have amassed 11 rules to live by after living abroad for the past 9 months
1. Give, but only when you don’t have to go out of the way. When you are alone abroad, people will just want to receive as much as they can from you.
2. Love everyone but trust no one
3. Don’t base permanent feelings on temporary people and fleeting emotions
4. Always buckle down and be prepared from Day 1. You’ll never know when trouble strikes. This life will hit you, hard, in the face, wait for you to get back up so it can kick you in the stomach. But getting the wind knocked out of you is the only way to remind your lungs how much they like the taste of air.
5. Stay open to new experiences, but go back to what you ultimately believe in what is morally correct
6. When you have a strange gut feeling about something, trust it. It is usually right.
7. Attempt to keep in touch with people from both countries. If it however, does not happen, don’t fret because change is the only constant. Both you and the other party are always meeting and forgetting the past.
8. Be nice, NOT meek to everyone, especially in a foreign country. Better to ‘lose’ the battle in an exchange of words (etc nasty taxi driver) than end up being hit. So always apologize when you’ve done something wrong but don’t you ever apologize for the way you feel
9. Love and respect yourself the most, because no one else will. You can’t please everybody so don’t even waste your time and energy trying
10. When doubting your existence, ensure that you educate yourself, eat healthily and sleep and wake up early
11. Family will always be there for you

Leading back to the start
1. The Road Not Taken
TWO roads diverged in a yellow wood,And sorry I could not travel bothAnd be one traveler, long I stoodAnd looked down one as far as I couldTo where it bent in the undergrowth; 5 Then took the other, as just as fair,And having perhaps the better claim,Because it was grassy and wanted wear;Though as for that the passing thereHad worn them really about the same, 10 And both that morning equally layIn leaves no step had trodden black.Oh, I kept the first for another day!Yet knowing how way leads on to way,I doubted if I should ever come back. 15 I shall be telling this with a sighSomewhere ages and ages hence:Two roads diverged in a wood, and I—I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.
Robert Frost.

In giving, do you expect to receive or lose?
Some things have bothered me recently thus, Tumblr is where I head to to vent my frustration.
'Your insecurities will not be my unhappiness. I loved you with a pure heart. You led us back to this fork in the road. This is where we part.'
Whoever loves a pure heart and gracious speech will have the king as a friend. Proverbs 22:11
