the kids. the villagers. the games. the movie-screening. the xmas party. the lessons. the painting. the culture (shock for some people). the everyone squeeze into one room and sleep together phenomenon. the beautiful scenery. the laidback lifestyle. the i-can't-believe-im-leaving to the i-dun-want-to-come-back-to-singapore feeling. the everywhere-looks-the-same-in-ang-kor-wat feeling. the cheap market. the good bargains. the weird food they eat (yes like bugs). the will-i-ever-get-to-see-the-kids-again feeling. (& i can go on forever...)

yay mans hold on to that so that u have sth to look forward to.
hopefully it'll help u pull thru this semester~ (:

jiayous! (:

The Final Analysis

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 God;
It was never between you and them anyway.

I still like this shirt the most. We should have asked the student to help us paint 100shirts, and we can sell each shirt for 30 dollars! no more fund-raising woes.


XYZ and I signed up for the AHM to train up for our cambodia yep trip. wahahha. it was rumored that janicia also went for the run, but she wasn't spotted anywhere

after the run, xyz even brought me for a free ride on the hippo tourist bus. go look for him if you want free



let me end off with a new scandalous photo from my yep team.

is this pair going to be the new yep couple?



Like to share something from a book I read quite some time ago.


"...It's this light thing. A few people have strong inner lights. But most people have 'lights-out.' 'Lights-on' not only means a good heart; it also means really caring about other people's hearts.

"Now here's the main thing. Good is when people, no matter what their age, struggle to keep their lights alive. Good is when they help others with dim lights to make those lights brighter. Most of all, good is when they try to link up with other people who have good hearts.

"Okay, last idea. I think of the world as a huge mountain. But it's very dark and cloudy and smoky. You've got to climb the mountain. But it's all covered up and it's so hard to see. Even if you have a good light, it's not enough. You've got to find other people with lights. And when you get enough lights, then you can climb and not fall off. It's scary. You're not sure what's at the top. But with all the lights, you might get there. And even if you don't get there, you might help people on the way."

-From "A Fractured Mind: My Life with Multiple Personality Disorder" by Robert B. Oxnam

(By the way, this is a nice book for those interested in DID!)


I believe each and every one of us has this inner light within ourselves. It's just a matter of wanting to keep it alive or just simply let it die.

All of you have chosen the former and hopefully in many years down the road, you'll continue to keep your lights going strong and light up the paths of those who need your help.


Cheers,
Yingyi
