Process of Life--- Study

Three years ago, before I started entering into the new phase of my life -university life, I started to wonder what will actually a university life for a teenagers who was just 19 years old going to face! Seniors from my school usually will tell you that year 1 is a honey moon in varsity. You might need to suffer a bit when we enter into year 2 or year 3 semester. For me, that is not really true! As a freshmen in university, of course some of us who come from form six, you might find it a bit easy to deal with subjects that have learn during your pre-university. What about those subjects that you never learn or never expose before? So I would say no matter you are in year 1, year 2 or year 3, the thing that you need to do is work hard and pray hard. Interestingly, nowadays I don't really call people to pray hard, but, with faith. Prayer without faith, some how it doesn't work. 

Now, as a student soon be graduate. Entering into another phase of life! Now is working life. Totally opposite of Study life. I'm sure that you hear people saying that study life is much more better than working life because of few reasons. First, you do not need to worry about things happen around you, just enjoy life. Second, you do not have much responsibility. your responsibility is to study. Third, you got your freedom. We do not have to force yourself to bed, just because you have to wake up early the next day to rush for work. Mainly these few reasons, people think that it would be good if they were still a student! Well, I guess this a life are all about. We need to go through different stages in life. Each stages in life, we experience and we learn different things. If you really think about it, life is full of mystery. We do not know each stages what hurdle are awaiting for us. However, this is all experience that we can gain in life. Not really a bad thing right?

Study is part of the process in life. We need to study, gain our knowledge, then only we expose to the world. As a student who are graduating soon, I guess I'm going to miss my study life. The thing I'm going to miss is my friends, whom we often hang out together. I'm going to miss all my lecturer who taught us before. Definitely, student will not miss is the exam that we seat for every semester throughout our university days. Is a kind of suffering when we need to prepare for our papers each time. Well, I guess this is what students will always complaint. My advice still the same, work hard and pray with faith! Nothing will goes wrong. Talk about prayer, it will be good that if you start off your study with prayer. What I meant here is have a short prayer before your begin your study. It definitely help in your study. Of course, with FAITH!

All of us will be entering into the new phase of our life after graduation. Hope that we will still have time to meet in the future no matter how busy we are in life. Great wishes :)

Fragility to appreciate in life

Couple of weeks ago, early in the morning when I was preparing to get off my bed to prepare for my class, suddenly I received a call from one of my varsity's friend, saying that her dad was in a critical condition and she urged  that if I could offer more prayer for her dad, who are fighting for his life in the ICU room. I immediately send the message to my friends, lecturers and one of the Sister to pray for her dad. Two days later, her dad left. Of course, she is really sad and I can really feel the pain in her.

Throughout the days, all of us try to offer as much prayer as we can, so that her dad would be able to go through this critical moment. I still remember that she told me that she hope that miracle will happen. Eventually, we know that miracle do not take place!

I started to feel the fragility in life. Life is just like a biscuit, once it broke, that's the end of everything. Life is just very short. Each day we do not know that what is going to happen. We do not know that what are the hurdle in front waiting for us to go through. We do not know that what are the challenges we might face in life. Many uncertainly in life that make us worry. I still remember one of the report mention that nearly 30% of the population in the world have depression. There are many factors that cause depression. Pressure that we face due to uncertainty in life might be one of them.

Yes, undeniable! In life, we might face different challenges, many uncertainly with the things that we are doing including the life that we have. I still remember there is a Chinese saying, we should appreciate every moment that we have! Don't start to regret when you have lost it! This sentence is really true! It teaches us how to appreciate what we have for every moment, and we do not start to regret it when you have loose it.

So, we should appreciate every moment that we have. Do not wait until you loose it then only you start regretting~

Stretch a bit !

This semester, the word "Pressure" didn't seem to loose sight from us. Our whole team, who are graduating soon, tend to feel the great pinch of pressure that coming from our assignments, thesis, presentation and etc.
Most of us, tend to stay up until late night just to rush for the project just in case that we get penalize from our lecturer.

Yes,undeniable! Is never easy being a university student. But, I start to realized that, to certain extend we need some sort of pressure to keep us going. Instead of standing at our own comfort zone, we must try to stretch ourselves to a certain extend, of course that extend for one could stand, so that we might gain exposure to various things. Sometimes we might develop our new potential of skills.

Pressure sometimes it may sound negative. Perhaps I should rephrase it in a way that,  the negative side of this word has more impact compare to the positive side, in regards with the pressure that we are facing in this modern world . Often, this is a cause that makes people give up their dreams or their target easily. To be frank, I should say pressure might demotivate me in a certain way. But, now I have a different way of thinking.

Pressure sometimes should motivate me to attain my goals instead of giving up easily. We should work our very best, and leave the rest to God. I'm sure according to His will, He will lead us the way.

Pause a moment, Reflect!

This will be my last semester in university. It will never easy for me since I'm going to struggle with so many stuffs that is remaining,  before I can finally pull myself out from the university, and proudly declare myself as a graduate. Now, half of the semester has gone and things are getting worse due to the deadline of my assignments, thesis and mid term are filling up my heavy load of bag.

Throughout this struggling, no doubt that I am feeling stress, sometimes might suffer minor insomnia. This may lead to frustration. But, the good thing that I have experienced is I'm able to examine myself and know my weaknesses in it. We are human, none of us in this world are prefect. I'm pretty sure that each of us will not be prefect, just like God. We have our own weaknesses, at the same time we have good side in us.

Nowadays, people just fail to reflect on their own weaknesses. They just find that something goes wrong, the blame will be shot to others people head instead of having a small reflection to examine their weaknesses. We shouldn't feel ashamed with the weaknesses that we have, but, we should work toward it and change one self to become a better person.

However, this world is blinded with pride. Most of the people might think admit their own weaknesses which mean put themselves in a shameful position between their friends, family or relatives. Pride often make people feel themselves GREAT. Sometimes pride might build up a bad image among your peers.

Reflect or examine ourselves is important  our weaknesses to become a better person. Yes, undeniable this semester will be a very heavy semester for me, I am pretty confident that the grace from God is sufficient for me to go through everything.
