We never realize the importance of those things that we concern the most until we approach them and learn to make every bit of our effort to achieve it.The passion slowly grows in our heart, that it eventually stands up in the center of our circle of life.We wish to become the perfectionist of ourself,perhaps not among the cream of the crops from outsiders' views, just the best for our own soul.We wish to dwell in the ideal life like how it is imagined,we need a commitment from ourself,that will bring us there someday.This is the ever-growing passion I mean, the passion that will never come to an end, it will only stretch our self-limit,enhance our true talents.Because deep down inside, we know we're not going to chase them out of our world.These things are always there,and forever will be.
Remember those days when we were babies, we expressed ourselves through babbling and crawling.Reaching to the unreachable places was what we always thought of at that time, as if it was the biggest aim in our everyday lives.Until the day we learned to talk, we always wished to learn at a faster pace, to outstand the rest, we wanted to be the best among our friends.As we had reached the adolescent stage, we tend to have big dreams and were ambitious on our future. Coming to the age of 19,another step into the door of 20, we are mentally developed until it comes to a stage, that makes us feel: I just want to do the best on what I'm holding now, not what I'm carrying on the future. I'm uncertain on how many of you will agree with this.However, we never forget the one big dream in our heart, that we desire so much but knowing how far are we going to be from it, from the day we surrender to the reality. We switch off the power mode of our dreams because we do not want to remind ourselves on how much do we want it to come true in our life. Most people might think it this way, but I don't feel it that way to some extend.
Our current possession and effort might not match with the true dreams in our heart, but this one big dream is the only passion that will never disappear, it only grows immensely in our heart, together with our effort as well. We might success in some other fields one day, but this dream will remain as the same at the same time. It brings back reminiscence, it leaves us no regrets,not solely because of the thought of " a dream is just a dream, a dream will never come true".It is because that we transform the wants into a motivation , we put in as much effort that we will work on our dreams into the current things that we uphold. We want them to be as successful as our dreams. Say your dreams out loud, to foresee the courage you will gain to overcome the fear on things which you are working on,to believe that dreams and reality are both mutual to each other.
" leave no regrets on your dream, because you know it always stays"
Your future always stays as well.
=)Pui Mun says: My one big dream is to become a musician, to live in a world of orchestra and piano.
I hope the passion for piano works equally well on inventing new food flavors.

Internet Bullies
I came across with a horrified news today while I was flipping through the newspaper, I do feel sad for the victim,Megan,but at the same time I am confused by the act of the people nowadays.The news came like this:
"LAST October, Internet users worldwide were shocked by the story of Megan Meier, a 13-year-old American girl who hung herself after being hoaxed by a couple who posed online as a “cute boy” named Josh.
The cute boy turned out to be Megan’s friend from school (with whom she had a falling out) and the girl’s mother, who made friends with Megan over social networking site MySpace.
Shortly into the “friendship”, Josh began sending hateful messages to Megan, telling her “the world would be a better place without you”.
Megan was seemingly in the safety of her home under the care of her parents, but being on the Internet exposed her to dangers. Her story ended in tragedy, and is an extreme example of Internet bullying. "
Megan was a teenager who had weight problems and was often teased by friends because of her plummy body.People made fun out of her by giving her different nicknames such as "fat girl" etcetera.This had caused her to desperately lurking for love and a good relationship to rely on,but always faces failures.
I can understand the fact that teenagers' way of communicating has changed over the decade.They start being a little harsh to each other and criticism once in a while is no a big deal in their circle of social networking.However, my mind is very much bothered by the fact that even parents involved in the hoax to humiliate a young girl who is their children's friend.Is that so funny to make a young girl have no way back to the reality,which has its beautiful side as well? Is that a satisfaction to see the girl collapses and traumatized without having appropriate counseling on time? Just that 30 minutes before her death that could make a difference out of her entire life,but no one was there to lend her a shoulder,maybe just let her cry for once,no?
NO
After all,I feel annoyed by the act of the "Josh" as well.Why wasting so much time in doing this while you should be educating your children NOT TO DO THIS KIND OF THINGS.
This has been the biggest doubt of mine for this tragedy.
I really hope people sometimes show their sympathy and think twice before they say anything or any action is carried out.You don't gain anything to cause a person's death, but only guiltiness throughout your life,isn't it? At least I feel very so,that we don't badmouth on anyone, even if they are our allies, anemies or frenemies.I bet the world will be much more peaceful if everyone speaks less on rumors and gossips. Badmouthing definitely is one of the worst habits to be practiced.But why are so many people still repeating the same mistake?...I have no answer for this, just 2 sentences as a reminder:
*Speak no evil*
*Learn to apologize*
Megan,R.I.P!!

Tagged
It's time for me to answer questions as I'm tagged by Chui Man and Winney X the pooh!=)
I'll do my best to make it an interesting post to be read, my friends,but most importantly is that both of them could see it, as I feel these quizzes are for people to have a better understanding on you,but not for the sake of answering it only.
1.小时候的理想是什么?
小学的时候曾想过当警察,也许是正义感所致吧,也或许是作文做太多了,对警察这份工作产生了崇拜。
中学的时候很向往人生的宽阔与自由,所以选择了飞机师,一份可以带人类飞翔的工作。
2.这辈子最快乐的是什么事?
拥有我一辈子都会努力珍惜的人,每一位朋友与家人的存在都令我明白了我自己存在的价值。
因为,快乐是可以很简单的。
3.最喜欢的颜色?
蓝色,代表平静与舒服的蓝色。
4.如果有机会的话,你最想对你的他说些什么?
最想跟你说的是:祝你幸福,永远地幸福!
5.你最想去哪个地方?为什么?
最想去拥有SEVEN WONDERS的国家,多了解这些古迹与多年仍屹立不倒的建筑。
6.最受不了自己哪个缺点?
缺乏自信心,总觉得自己很失败,很多事情都做不好。我想,这是以后我必须要克服的一个障碍吧!
因为人总要活的自信,才能尝试更多不同的挑战,样样事情都尽最大的努力去完成。
"not to try my best, but to do my best"
7.如果有不开心的事情,你会怎么办?
不太想讲话,会先沉淀自己的情绪,让自己冷静下来之后才会再与别人接触。
如果是可以努力改进的事情,我一定会尽力去改进,寻求更大的进步,下次才会做的更好。
如果是没办法改变的事情,我会学会看开,再学会放手与原谅,因为宽恕才是解决问题的最佳方案。
8.最害怕失去的东西?
最害怕失去自己的方向,少了一个可以令自己往前走的动力与干劲。
家人与朋友并不是我会害怕失去的人,因为我不会失去他们,不会因为距离而改变他们在我心中的位置吧!因为,我知道你们一直都会在!
9.五年内比较现实的目标是什么?
完成大学与找到自己理想的工作,继续往自己的兴趣努力-钢琴与日语。
看见大姐,二姐,三姐的家庭生活幸福,快乐。
赚钱养父母。
10.你最喜欢的一句话?
"The most precious gift we can offer others is our presence. When mindfulness embraces those we love, they will bloom like flowers."
11.最喜欢的歌手是谁?
心里拥有几位很欣赏的歌手,所以无法列出最喜欢的。
12.你希望你的另一半具备的条件是?
未来的事情我不想像太多吧!如果我真的喜欢他,我会努力接受他的个性。
13.至今最令你后悔的事是什么?
没考好SPM,我知道是我自己努力不够。也许,这会是一直的遗憾吧,令我第一次对自己这么的不满意与感觉到自己的差劲。
14.你最讨厌怎样的人?
没有一定的类型,只要是不太过火的我都会接受,一旦过了接线就代表我是真的厌恶了。
15.觉得自己会几岁结婚、生孩子?
还不想想这个问题,毕竟这不在我规划的人生计划中。
婚姻与爱情是顺其自然的事,是不能被规划而按计划进行的吧!
16.对自己的要求?
不要做会令自己后悔的事情,一旦决定了,无论结果是好是坏,也必须要往前走,而不是往后退。
17.你认为遇到什么样的事情才会让你觉得人性很黑暗?
从来都不认为人生是完全的光明,也许是意识到了光明的背后总会带点黑暗,是需要累积经验才会在处理人际关系中取得平衡点。“经一事,长一智”吧,遇到每一件不开心的事情都会看见一点人性的黑暗,但也会因此而令自己对各式各样的人性有所了解。当别人无法对你的生活方式做出妥协而在利用你的时候,自己就必须要学会一套的生活方式来对别人的变化做出妥协。
18.你此刻的心情?
很清晰,终于看清了自己的方向与决定。
很平静,因为不想再墮入漩涡里,我会慢慢地走出来。
19.圣诞节要到了,想跟谁庆祝?
=)圣诞节已经过了喔,不过2007年的圣诞过的很平静,是跟家人一起度过地。
没有倒数,没有大肆地庆祝,不过倒是感受到了平凡中的快乐与舒适的感觉。
20.2008年快来了,想跟过去的自己说什么?
Walk away and start a new life.
每一天经历的事情都是命中注定,必须亲身体验过才会学会它背后所隐藏的讯息。
很多事情没有一定的答案,没有一定的对错,所以希望自己能够看开一点,选择了就不要再怀疑自己的能力,
因为只有自己才能替自己决定,学业也是,感情也是,离开也是。
谢谢每一年的张珮雯,因为那都是构成现在与以后的张珮雯最珍贵的精华。
I decided to take this as a survey,so not going to pass it around to anyone else because most of my blogger-friends have already been tagged I suppose.Hopefully you'll understand a little about me through this piece of survey.
Tata!!=)
