hey. i picked up something from the july's issue of 'teenage magazine'. i find it really meaningful. it's about friends and what kind of friends are there.(the quality, that is) i guess i wanna type out the whole column of it. =D
"friends are very important in life.what is important to bear in mind is that we need to be able to identify the qualities of a true friend. if you know what you are looking for in a friend, then you will probably face fewer disappointments. i warn you that if you settle for shallow, flightly, petty people, then don't expect them to stand by you when you are in need.
the first thing to do is to list the qualities you expect in a good friend. it may not be easy to identify all the important qualities. to help you, i will list some of the most important ones. these include respect, honesty and ability to really care and share, common interests, a willingness to listen, the ability to sympathise and empathise and to be there for one another in good times and especially, bad. i also highlight a willingness to make sacrifices and being prepared to stand by your friend and protect this person from the unkindness of others.
you may add more or subtract from the list, BUT immediately after you have listed the qualities you want in a friend, highlight those you possess. you must be honest with yourself. if you don't posses the qualities you deem important, how can you demand someone else to live up to your expectations?
you have now learnt one important aspect of friendship-it is a two way process. one cannot do all the taking and expect the othere to just keep giving. selfish people will, in the end, destroy even the most loving of friendships. this goes for married couples too.
some people are fair weather friends. they are there when all is well and will desert you when trouble brews. others hang out with you simply because they want something. it could be your popularity that helps them share the limelight or your wealth or position in society or even those who use your ideas and pass them off as their own. such people may lack moral fibre and may let you down because they know you know the truth and may fear you. it is ironic how often people you help tend to shy away after you have helped them. they would prefer to pretend you do not exist after a while. you may be one of those generous people who render help when it is needed and want nothing in return. being of help is its own reward. friends like these should be treasured if you come across such altrustic people.
rich people find is easier to make "friends" , but the wise among them know that many of their so-called friends are merely using them. many famous socially prominent people are often sad because deep down they know that they are surrounded by users. they'd be dumped if one day they lost their position and wealth.
true friendship is never based on externals like money, looks and position, all of which can be easily lost. true friends value qualities that are precious and don't diminish with the passing of time.don't aim to have many friends. often most of them should really be referred to as aquaintances. some people say, "i have two good friends" . wow! you are blesses if you have two good friends.
don't go for quantity; go for quality when it comes to friendship.
the most cherished gift you can have is a sincere friend. if you find such a person, treasure him or her
because a real friend is priceless."
-teenage magazine. page 41
*the phrases stated in bold means alot to me. (:
after reading this column on friendship, i think i really need to reflect myself as a friend. am i a petty one? am i a snobbish one? or am i a good and caring friend? i dunnoe. i just need to reflect on myself. or maybe ask my best bud(s). what about you? (:

woo~finally bought a nice big roxy pencil case. black with pink words. (: my favourite colours..!! heehee. $12.90. not bad price. (:
went shopping today at far east plaza and pacific plaza. my aim was to look for a nice pair of pump shoes, cos mine is wearing out.): but couldn't find leh. haii. and was looking for a nice purple top. also cant find. haii. there's some other place to find tho. (: didn't walk the whole of far wast plaza..cos we need to go back early to company my grandad. well, that's in the early part of the afternoon.
my mum yelled at me again. just b'cos i asked my mum what she wanted me to ask my dad over the phone. i was keeping my cool. almost yelled at her too. oh whatever.
really mad at my grandma and mum ytd. three of us were in the kitchen. grandma came over. u noe what she was discussing with my mum? about my grandad's funeral! i was so damn mad. first thing, my grandad is dead yet. *touchwood*. 2nd thing, it's like they can't wait for him to die like that. they are like thinking of the negative side. okay, though we noe that my grandad is going to pass out any moment, (i'm not cursing. it's a fact) at least don't talk about it. i'm really sad about it too. and when i asked mum why she and granny were discussing about my grandad's stuff, she replied: so at least we won't agree to the pple who come here (the funeral) to do the chanting and all. will cost $10000 over .so must get ready. alright. maybe my mum's partially rite.but as my mum always say :focus on what u do. so it clearly states tt she must focus on what she is saying to the dunoe wad pple. whatever. i dunnoe wad i'm talking either. it's just depressing.
anyway, i dunnoe wad happened to my tag board. cannot see wad i tagged. or pple tagged. i dunnoe. i'm just having a lil' mixed feelings now.

the one thing i dislike about saturdays are " what am i going to do for the whole day? " so, the first thing i did this morning was to brush my teeth, take my breakfast and sit infront of the laptop. okay. it sounds kinda lame. my parents ain't at home. so i can use the laptop whenever i want to. (: HEEHEE. neither my bro is.
yesterday, i was really REALLY mad at my mum. she was screaming her head off over the phone-in the MORNING. just b'cos she told me to wake up at this particular time and i didnt. i only slept for another half an hour mah. but actually, i cldn't sleep at nite. i kept thinking about my grandad. his life is sorta in danger now. ): so, we're really pampering him. like he wants to eat this, we'll get it for him. he wants to go there, we'll bring him there.(provided is convenient for handicap people.) okay, back to ytd. my mum wanted to bring us for lunch somewhere and we're supposed to reach at 11.30. so she told us the nite b4 tt she'll be picking us up at 11.15. i've got one hour to prepare..(which is more than enough.) and dunnoe for what reason, she just LOVES to yell at me. and whenever my dad just tell her off, she gets angry and vents her anger on us. arghh. then later, things got a lil' bit better. only for A WHILE.after lunch, she fetched us home and she went back to work. when she came back in the evening, my mum was also yelling at us. and when she yells at me everytime, and i explain to her ever so nicely, she just scolds me, "why are u so micro-petty?" (in other terms, VERY petty.) this happens almost everyday. sometimes, i wish i have a big headphone with loud music on my ear, so i need not hear her yelling. but anyway, now i noe i shldn't explain things to her. number 1: she'll call be micro-petty. number 2: she'll think i'm retorting her. number 3: she'll think i'm arguing with her. number 4: i think i'm just wasting my saliva or breath explaining things to her when i'll get yelling in the end.
at night, my bro went to throw rubbish outside our flat . we didn't noe tt the plastic bag was leaking. and my mum screamed at us AGAIN. arghh. she yelled at my bro " i just mopped the floor and then it's dirty again! go and take a wet cloth and clean it! " like as if my bro and i dun noe? it's only an accident. and it's not as if it's the first and the last time my mum's going to mop the floor. and she yelled again" jody! u're responsible too! next time i don't wanna cook anymore!" does 'dun wanna cook' link to throwing the trash? and she kept yelling and yelling like no one's business. and after i helped my bro to clean, both of us just sat on the sofa and watched smallville while she's screaming to no one. HAHA. we're so mean.
ahh!! my dad just came back.shit. but i told him my bro is downloading some music so i must take care of the com. HAHA. anyways, i gotta go. cos we're going out later. (: i'll update more later.maybe. haha. byebye!! (btw, pls tag. (: )

hey people..i'm stuck like a jailbird at home.supposed to go out wif my frens today, but cancelled. haii..well, there's still another time anyway.(:
left 2 weeks of holiday. come to think of it, i really dread going to school. but one thing i like about it is tt i can be with my frens. (: the worse thing is to sit through boring lessons. and my class is the suay-iest. the class who has the most t'chers changed since last year. arghh. but i dun mind changing sucky t'chers-especially Lim Ah Chek.(my chinese t'cher.she's leaving!!woo hoo!!) okay..i admit i feel a bit bad for her. but i'm also mean. haha. well, i don't really think the school staff (or shld i say the principal) cares whether us students get different t'chers everytime. maybe they do, i dunnoe. it's really difficult for us to cope with different t'chers changing everytime. sometimes, these t'chers want their work to be done this way, corrections to be done the other way. and if we do wrongly, the impatient t'chers would scream their heads off-which i really hate. duh. everyone hates this kind of t'chers, i suppose. okay, maybe some t'chers needs to go for dunnoe wad training stuff and this and tt. i dunnoe. and i dun wanna noe either. (:
also, i dread going to school is b'cos we need to finish up our darn homework. especially MATHS. i hate it. or maybe i'll love it someday, which i doubt so. heehee! =D wonder y the teachers give us so much homework during the holidays..? i think they are nuts. 'cos after we finish the homework, the t'chers must go through all of them. and when they go through all of them, they are just wasting time cos they might not have enough time to teach us new chapters.(tho i hate it.haha.i'm such a hpocrite)or, the t'chers also need to mark so much work. worst still, some of the teachers dun even go through or mark for us-and all our effort goes to waste. err..maybe not all. 'cos if we do work, it also keeps our brain going and allows us not to forget wad we've learnt the previous term. (i'm such a hypocrite again. hee.)
fine.i'm always complaining.but sometimes, when i say it out, i feel better. (: and worst still, the stuff i say is quite contradicting, eh? haha.
kay. that's all for today's post. do tag, okay? (:
