Liberated...really?

May 22nd, 2007. The clock hits 12.20.The (melodic?) words of Mr. Cheang that said, "Ok girls, time's up." Whoa, finally, finally. It's OVER!!! Yeah, just take a look at what he just dropped at my desk. Yay. Homework. Circular measures, yipee. For the holidays, Mr. Cheang says. Aren't holidays supposed to be enjoyed?? Oh well, I expect most of my dear classmates have already finshed it. Killjoy number 1.

Oh, that's not all, was nicely talking with friends then whoosh, a paper lands in front of me. What on earth? Lots of red circles and crosses everywhere. Great, I know what this is. Took a deep breath and slowly shifted my eyes upwards. Ah, there it is. My 'lovely' marks. A big fat 53 staring at me. Sweet. Ee Xin comes back with her paper. Looked at her really, really lovely marks, no inverted commas this time. 20 marks more than mine (calculate and see what she got la). Okay, fine. I would not complain because there are people who got lower than me. But to all those who got super duper high marks, yes may jet, you're counted, 'ARRRGGGGHHHH!!!' There. Now I can get back to getting sober. =D. Killjoy number 2.

I wish there was a Killjoy number 3, unfortunately I can't be overly dramatic and rant about it. So, back to the topic, anyone feeling liberated? Unfortunately, that feeling has deserted me since last week. My normal lifestyle was back, going online, watching tv, but no..no movies though. No wonder I don't really feel liberated, because I was living my old life before exam during exam ( hope I make sense). I blame the super duper long exam though. 10 days!! Really maddening. It's 5 days more than the lower secondary exam. 5 days is a lot you know, imagine how many movies you can watch, tv, (taiwanese, korean, japanese, whatever -nese that most of my series loving classmates watch), hours onlining, books you can devour.

But I digress.

So, hope everyone enjoys their freedom while it lasts. Haha...sorry for my twisted view on everything. After reading this, forget about it and don't let it ruin your day. Enjoy.



*Some parts may be overly dramatic so yeah, just live with it.

I wish u enough~

Recently I overheard a mother and daughter in their last moments together at the airport.
They had announced the departure.
Standing near the security gate, they hugged and the mother said, "I love you, and I wish you enough."
The daughter replied, "Mom, our life together has been more than enough. Your love is all I ever needed. I wish you enough, too, Mom."
They kissed and the daughter left.
The mother walked over to the window where I was seated.
Standing there I could see she wanted and needed to cry.
I tried not to intrude on her privacy, but she welcomed me in by asking, "Did you ever say good-bye to someone knowing it would be forever?"
"Yes, I have," I replied.
"Forgive me for asking, but why is this a forever good-bye?".
"I am old, and she lives so far away. I have challenges ahead and the reality is - the next trip back will be for my funeral," she said.
"When you were saying good-bye, I heard you say, 'I wish you enough.' May I ask what that means?"
She began to smile.
"That's a wish that has been handed down from other generations. My parents used to say it to everyone."
She paused a moment and looked up as if trying to remember it in detail, and she smiled even more.
"When we said , 'I wish you enough,' we were wanting the other person to have a life filled with just enough good things to sustain them."
Then turning toward me, she shared the following as if she were reciting it from memory.

~I wish you enough sun to keep your attitude bright no matter how gray the day may appear.


I wish you enough rain to appreciate the sun even more.
I wish you enough happiness to keep your spirit alive and everlasting.
I wish you enough pain so that even the smallest of joys in life may appear bigger.
I wish you enough gain to satisfy your wanting.
I wish you enough loss to appreciate all that you possess.
I wish you enough hellos to get you through the final good-bye.
I wish you enough EXAMS so that u won't miss them when u don't have to take them =)
They say it takes a minute to find a special person, an hour to appreciate them, a day to love them; but then an entire life to forget them.

TAKE TIME TO LIVE.....

To all my friends and loved ones, I WISH YOU ENOUGH.
