“There are no words of comfort, That can hope to ease the pain, Of losing homes and loved ones, The memories will remain….. There are so many heroes, Whose stories must be told, They fought the raging fires of hell, And saved so many souls”
Goosebumps…. been following the latest Victoria Bushfires news on Australia news websites… omg from what i watched through the videos, it was really hell, the song just describes it. heart-wrenching. The song just touched something in me especially when it is exactly to the same tune of “We Are Lasallian” and Australia being my most favourite country. Towns were just lost like that, it was like nothing left as described and seen in the news it was really like a bomb which just went off… sincerely wish them all the best…. This was something which made me realize how important to treasure everything that you have now, never take anything for granted, who knows what would happen in the next second, minute, hour, day, month, no one really knows. The beauty of human nature only comes out during dire circumstances and when desperately needed, if this could be exercised everyday I am sure the world would really be a better place.
On another note, semester is over and 6 weeks of holz have begun. This past semester have been hard, really taxing with all the worrying, thinking and watching out for the projects and the other members of my groups, making sure everything goes smoothly is like what I do. It’s hard to place trust and confidence in everyone but still I know I must force myself to, I have to admit I make judgements of people and judgements are honestly something not helpful and can really spoil relationships but still I have to say that none of them can really make me feel a sense of comfort. But still friendships, relations must be maintained and strengthened, I feel almost 2 years of friendship is something must be treasured and not easy though I still have reservations about them.
But POLY to me is really a road of self-discovery, you determine your own destiny and destination, you grab the chances that you want to grab, you put in the effort that you want to put in, its all up to YOU….. If you really put your heart into everything in poly, you would find that all these experiences have meanings behind them. Again, I have to say I have learnt alot, my “view” of the world have further widened whether through psychology or tourism, social psychology and work group dynamics — if eveyone would know a little bit of how these work then really relationships would really improve and be way much better.
Toursim is still all about expanding my knowledge and brain, all very work related stuff, projects, tutorials, lectures that was how life was ever since october 2008. Psychology on the other hand was much relaxed and comfortable, made me see people more and made me realize many stuff about relationship, people’s minds and really how relationships operate whether in a social, work or family setting. Allowed me to open up more and share more about myself and experiences which I am sure very little people now knows and also yah realize how other peole view me now, my image now is really different form the past… Time you see is a very important and major culprit…. Still i wish to continue to learn more and have fun in tourism and explore more of myself and relationships and the human mind in psychology….. praying that results will meet my expectations…
Finally, ending this post I wanna say, Happy Birthday Matt !!!! Hahaz (if you will ever to read this)…. the 18th year one is really something significant and something for celebration. All I can say is time really flies, its been around 4-5 years since I came to know you. Still, I wish you all the best in whatever you do and be happy always… Cheers… yeah…!!!!
(one thing i learnt and realize is that it is the small gestures and actions that really matter in any relationship, seen, recognized and treasured by the other party and those of which really charaterize a true and real relationship and not those big and obvious ones…..)
