Trip to Queenstown and Wanaka Aug,2008

Time to share some one of a kind experience in this blog. In August 2008, I went for a trip with my best friends in NZ( PeiJia, Reseena, Felicia and Vera) to Queenstown and Wanaka. Queenstown is a beautiful tourist town with splendid mountains and natural environment. More importantly, I've done bungee jump because my friends insisted on doing it, then it would be so embarrasing if I'm the only one that is not gonna do it.^^
We also went to Wanaka for skiing! that means I've done 2 things first time in this trip! bungee jumping and skiing!

so that's how it works

Prepare to encounter problems.

All of a sudden, As it seems that problems were about to be solved before going back to study in NZ, it descended upon me like meteor shower from the sky. I'm not so good at sharing, so I would like to share it through my blog. Hoping that releasing it through this method would bring relief to me.



不择手段，恩将仇报, In order to achieve his goal, he can actually turn my friends and cousins against me. In order to achieve his goal, he can actually pretend to be so pathetic but actually many people was behind him. He could do anything, anything , even after my 'obvious boycott, and unhappiness' towards his actions.
I cannot imagine what would happen if he achieve his goal, the same fate that befall to everyone else. Stop pretending to be innocent and show yout true colours( that's not possible though). However, it was my stupidity who made all these possible, it was my blind kindness to let this took place. Hope no catastrophe happens.



To one of my (once )best friends,
I have much patience on you my friend, I kept endure and tolerate what you have done. you always accuse me of speding so less time with you but you never look at the mirror. you said that I spent too much time in front of the computer looking for information and news and spent too less time chatting together but you never look at the mirror as well. Still remember last year Chinese new year, when I put my hand on yout shoulder and you push it away and shouted at me for cheating on you, but in the end, I was not wrong...It was you who never see things carefully and already acted, but you already finished scolding and the pain in heart already felt.
and this time it was the same. in those sms, how many F words you have uttered, have you ever considered my feelings? have you seen me replied any F words to you? in those sms, have I ever used人生攻击 against you? you kept doing it. you're blinded by your perception, by the only things that appear in your eyes and you intepret it your own way, by the one who depicted himself as a pathetic, innocent guy that are persecuted by me. In those sms, you said I just lost 2 friends, have you ever thought that it was so painful to hear that a friend threaten to end a friendship just because of another person's business and you do not even know the truth yet?
We've been through so much, me and you in National service, I was just right beside you when whole gang of people descend upon you seeking fight. prepared to aid you. Would that person that you think was right and you want to bring justice for him do this? do your mind even move?
Most ridiculously, in the sms, you said I lost 2 friends because of 3 missed calls and 1 rejected call. my goodness, this has to be the biggest joke on Earth. you want to lose a friend just because of those missed calls? it's really saddening to hear but so be it if you want it. Do you even know that calls that I received from you recently were scoldings and mockings? sms you sent were provoking and annoying? Before the threatening of breaking our friendship, what did you sent? was not it annoying and angering?besides, I was driving, the safety of those in my car is prioritised. I was so tolerant, I was so accepting. but you just want to F it all up. the first F sms from you was like a knife pierced through my heart, ending friendship because of all these.
You even talked about my unhappy past regarding a conflict between me and another best friend.I know, the purpose of doing all these is to hurt me. well, great job.
I lost interests in talking or settling, who do you think you are to always scold and threaten to end friendship like this.
If you said I just lost 2 friends, another friend you're talking about is 不择手段，恩将仇报, I'm SO GLAD and OVERJOYED that it ends. if the other one is you, I'm prepared to suffer the consequences. because thanks to you, you brought the past up regarding my another best friend between me. I'm prepared to endure, as you know I endured so much of these, and YOU thrown me back there again. There are more I wanted to share but I'm afraid that your 人生攻击 against me will be overwhelming and i kept mine at minimal.




I hope you're happy, I'm leaving for NZ soon. farewell

Christmas 2008 (24th-25th Dec 2008)

There goes another highly anticipated Christmas, I remember Christmas was the time when everyone in church was busy for Chritmas preparation. However, preparation these few years were slow and casual, most people did not put much effort on it. This is saddening, but nevertheless, it was still one of the happiest events in the year 2008! Here are some pictures that I've taken during Christmas time.

Youth Camp 2008

Remember I thought that I might not be able to join another youth camp anymore. Nonetheless, I did, and I was a ‘助教’ instead of normal participating teenagers,for I'm no longer teenager! It's fun to see teenagers playing around and learning, remind me of how much time I have wasted in unnecessary things.
In this camp, there was a lot of new faces, which is awesome...everyone could get to know new friends!
Here are some of the pics in youth camp 08

Time to re-think mistakes that I have done

Havent written blogs for a while but I'm not good at it anway. but there's one thing that horribly troubles me that I wish I could unleash it in a healthy and 'poetic' way.

I've done countless mistakes throughout my lifetime.
But it was always myself who's going to suffer the consequences and fix the spilt myself.
During Chinese New Year I'm not sure why I was kind enough to help an ungrateful person that's in need of a thing so desperately for so long, which is bad for the thing he's seeking for.I know this person is sleek and crafty through years of experience. unfortunately, I helped(out of happiness and joy) >.<...(i allowed injustice to survive!)out of kindness and I helped him with all my heart.

But my kindness was repaid with betrayal, I have not felt betrayal for so long that I forgot what it was like.My silence was exploited, my help was exploited, my friendship was exploited! It was painful in the heart to see a thing falling prey into an ungrateful person's hand. It was painful to know that you cannot do anything, say anything to bring the thing out of the tricks for the ungrateful person had exploited every single bit of your kindness and repay you with disrespect and rudeness. And in this period, he even exploited all the little details for his advantages. Little did the ungrateful person realise that without my help, he would not have known the existence of the thing that he desperately seek for even before he sees the thing. The ungrateful person has forgotten that no one has ever helped him and he's only a laughing stock for everyone, I look upon him with sympathy and my kindness appeared, but once it does appeared, it was exploited to the core! to the deepest core that the Earth has ever seen.

I have not felt so sad and guilty before,for I have put one of my best friends into the mouth of a wolf, no one would understand, everyone might have thought that I was just a barbaric thug being unreasonable and trying to seek a confrontation with an innocent man(Not quite)! He's played the card well. It's even sadder to know that you could not do anything to change all these. and it's even sadder to think that I WAS THE ONE who put my best friend into the wolf's den. I don't really like to intervene in peoples' decision but I'm deeply concern on this one which deeply worries me.

I'm left with few days in the Land Below the Wind. it's painful to left behind something unfix but I believe there's nothing I could do but to wish for wisdom and practical thinking of the person that I put into the wolf's den. hoping that one of my best friends would be wise in dealing matters and would not be fallen into tricks and irresponsible behaviours.

Hope all is well, Shalom, my friend
