Smile though it is tough

Oh, home alone today, all my housemates are outing for fun. They have all their assignments done; can shopping and eating happily with a relief heart. Poor me, still have to keep on working for my report for Monday submission. After sadly said No to them for going out, then doing my report, whilst writing a post, whilst singing “lonely, oh I am lonely..”

I had gone through a tough life in the process of doing this research course. My supervisor is strict and particular to my writing. I am discouraged of what he commented sometime. “Non-sense”, “You can’t write something by heart, people would not understand”, “ if you still not stick to one angle, go around one issue, you will never can finish this research”, “ this is not your level and capability to question this”, “an idealistic research will spend you years and years..”.

Well, blessing in disgust, I gained a lot under his supervision. Although there are conflicts in between, but I understand his intention is for my good, to let me learn and improve. He really a kind man, as he was willing to spend times correct me, guiding me since this is just an elective course. 3 months of this assignment, I’ve learn to take ownership of my words of writing, learn to attentive to minor mistakes, know is time to improve my grammar, learn to adapt to rule-bound thinking…….

I know, I will miss the time that I blamed. The precious lesson that I got in these days is learn to value tough things in my life with heart of appreciation.

Smile though it is tough.

Change and change…

Is time to write a post here after a long pause, although assignments still in loading and non full stop in coming recently.

I had my hair cut one month ago. Haha. Today, the day after one month, , I’ve already use to my short hair styling. I realize, it was a lot of benefits to keep short hair.
1.) save shampoo
2.) easy dry
3.) save energy to comb
4.) cool feeling ,especially my neck
5.) less hair dropping, then easy to sweep the floor

Just the moment after had my hair cut, my mother’s response was so encouraging. “Wow, girl, you look younger and fresh. Come on, keep your hair in this length, I will sponsor your barber fee if you cut again next times.” But my dad and brother not responded happily for me. “ Erm, a bit looked blur …” .My brother “ Your hair is common lah, everywhere also got, girls and boys”. Well, I respect their frankness.

Friends were so shocked of my new image. Some praised, some commented, some smile and kept silence. Anyway, I still proudly tell my friends, I had experienced variety hairstyles during university time, hahaha. Moderate short hair lar, straight long hair lar, curly long hair lar, and boy-cut now. Erm, should be short curly hair in next change.

This decision once again reflected my flexible personality. I hardly stick to one thing for long time. The most obvious example is my attention span, unable to prolong my attention to one thing. Well, not really everything geh, things that I am really interest to and find meaning in it, I am willing to concentrate my whole life for it.
3 things in hold and never let it: value (life principles), promise (to God) and loves (friends and family).

Feel fresh after write something. Ok, is time to back to my assignment journey. Gambaruzoo….
