New Beginnings

Life is short.
Focus on what end goal you want.
Do what is important.
Cut out distractions.
It's okay to make mistakes.
It's okay to feel a little lost.
It's okay to start all over again.

Hooray to new beginnings!
Uncertain but exciting times.
Definitely moving forward in the direction I want.
Making myself happy (and creating positive influence) is the most important.
Jiayou to myself!

Maybe that time have affinity with those schools and courses and jobs mah, and the people in it. Maybe I just had to spend the amount of

HAHAHAHA Anyway, they came earlier than stipulated time. So immediately after I paid my respects to Buddha, we got to work immediately by arranging chairs.  Teacher Kiwi is really experienced in such events. He could talk to all elderly and asked them about their dialects. I'm like shucks I cannot talk much dialect even though I am Hokkien. Mental note to practise Hokkien, but then never really got down to learning it.  After we settled the elderly, we had a short briefing and practised singing the song for candle possession. Teacher Kiwi got his friend who is a guitarist and another friend who is the official photographer. There
