HAHA... its been 2 mths n 3 days since ive posted anything. One's bet , that either i was super busy... or i was just super lazy. ANYHOW, both of it makes up for the truth...

 

SO NOW, LETS COUNT THE BLESSINGS... sumthing that ive learned from the 2nd dhamma talk on stress. As a start, the purpose of counting one's blessing... particularly MINE, is so that we need to realise how much good life itself has... im sure it sucked "big time" in many hrs... but i think, that in these very hrs, we get to see the best in others.

 

1) Even though i din catch up alot in studies, i still can understand the lectures and discuss about it with friends. Thats a fat thing to say for a person that has never scored well in most of his exam in most of his life. HAHAHA... hopefully i study hard this hols to make up for it.

 

2) The talks went well with a good amount of ppl attending. Im grateful that it went well... and a penny goes into my piggy bank of confidence. haha. Hopefully i can analyze the actual reason behind the good attendence and apply it elsewhere.

 

3) The weekly gatherings went well most of the time. My last minute stunts so far went well and i get to know new people across the batches. May they all be well and may i be free from risky last minites stunts.

 

4) The chinese instruments class did not get any new members... but the old members are committed despite their busy schedule. May they have fun in their learning and may we get new members to our family.

 

5) Nowadays i find myself among nice people... my days are filled with fun and laughter.... which is absolutely great. Im grateful for my nice batchmates and dinner going friends. The buddhist society are also a lively bunch with the crazy seniors and fun colleagues. My DSG juniors are also performing well and giving their best in learning the dharma. My new hsemates are also made up of a nice bunch, and so far the hse is more messy now with more people. BUT, nothing beats a harmonious and peaceful living. May they all be well and happy and may the place be a little more cleaner.

 

6) My birthday went well with a surprise visits from some of my batch mates, and also a small cake from the girl gang.... It was my 1st late nite surprise, and it felt good. Im happy for having such good friends, even if sumtime they may seem cold. Ill do my best to be one too, and carry it on into an actual profession.

 

7) My flute made some progress over the mths... but still not fast enough for any actual celebration. My guitaring actually took a big turn when i realized how much basic i need in order to advance up, so i gave up playing "cool songs" and focus on the simple stuff, in detail... My vocal range went up to Dsharp, and ill continue to push... Lets not start on the piano... BUT, im grateful that im enjoying music more than any time n moment that i did in my life... its a good pleasure that matures the senses, and the mind. May my flute, guitar, and vocals improve... hahahaa... 

 

SO MUCH MORE TO BE HAPPY ABOUT... but i think 7 is a good number to end it. ... Life is challenging.. and im not going to say that its worth it or that its a good challenge... Ill survive all of this, advance to the next level..., and then ill say its a hell of an experiance.
