Mother Teresa's Anyway Poem People are often unreasonable, illogical and self centered;Forgive them anyway.
If you are kind, people may accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives;Be kind anyway.
If you are successful, you will win some false friends and some true enemies;Succeed anyway.
If you are honest and frank, people may cheat you;Be honest and frank anyway.
What you spend years building, someone could destroy overnight;Build anyway.
If you find serenity and happiness, they may be jealous;Be happy anyway.
The good you do today, people will often forget tomorrow;Do good anyway.
Give the world the best you have, and it may never be enough;Give the world the best you've got anyway.
You see, in the final analysis, it is between you and your God;It was never between you and them anyway.

a sneak preview into the SMU Uni-Y comm service camp thanks to Vincent Ha O i/c of one of the most well organised and fun camp I've been to.
Yesterday, I read my SMU email and found out that one of my fellow school mates passed away in a car accident. Though I didnt know him personally nor know how he looked like, was quite depressed about it esp when I read it for myself in the newspaper. Gosh... cant imagine dying so young and abruptly. 2 weeks to year 2 n then suddenly, he leaves. No orbituaries about him either. I guess his family is too distraught about it.

Its not as if u were nv late urself in the mornings and exploited ppl like me had to wait outside the shop for someone to open the door. N please la, why issit u never lay ur precious hands on the broom or the mopPractise what u preach man. R.E.S.P.E.C.T. aint that easy to earn. It's more like The Unhappy People Company.

a brand new entry for a brand new month. August... the month of the hungry ghosts and important birthdays. just came back from Uni-Y comm service camp yesternoon and I've decided to try to be more active in school....decided doesnt mean a pro-action because I noe I always make promises like these when I'm all free and easy and den when I start getting choked with projects and tests, they just become promises to myself I just cant keep. CheerLeading for instance. Ya'know the camp really did make me think about how blessed I was and how I should do more for the needy society. We were taking care of Tanglin Special school youths for 2 days at our Sembawang campsite and it threw most of us if not all, out of our comfort zone. Tough seeing these ppl suffer in a world of rejection.
Yesterday, I was scooping again and my camp group came to visit and bought the Vermonster - a sinful mix of 20 scoops of ice cream, bananas, brownies, cookies, whipped cream, peanuts, rainbow sprinkles, m and ms, chocolate sprinkles, hot fudge and caramel ....all in a bucket. Yeeling and Aileen popped by too and so did Ruo Mei whom I have not seen for eons!
And Happy Birthday dar!!!! You mean the world to me.
