It's OCT

2011's September is like a blink of eye
It's already October now, and not long away from my graduation
It went by so quickly that I didn't even have time to realise
Looking back now, it wasn't that bad after all
It's about 拿得起,放得下 and 耐心 this month

2nd half of 2011 hasn't been a good time for John's basketball
Ankle sprained & knee ligament tear, 4 times in 2 months I have to be lifted off the court and carried to the sideline

There're two pains involved here:
a)Physical pain caused by swelling of the injured site, which is not "pain"ful at all to me
b)Watching my team play and could only stand on the sideline, giving instructions but not helping them physically, that hurts

I hate to say it, but deep down inside, I felt that my injury cost us the season
Of course, no one would admit that, 'cause I'm not actually that good :P
I know we (Team CCM) cherish the time we had together more rather than actually winning the game, but a taste of victory would go well with the company I thought
But hey, we had fun together, we finished two seasons together with such great unity and atmosphere, which I thought no other team had done it better than us
I'm blessed to be in this team and this group of people
It's a team, a team that actually do life together other than playing basketball alongside each other
I'M BLESSED!!!


And yeap, it's official, an ACL tear. Meaning a surgery is underway...
And a whole lot of question marks to be solved in front
I was worried and I must admit that I still am...
About all the uncertainties and commitments, which I really can't control but to hope for the best and people's understanding
Job, I've got a job in SG as an intern pharmacist (hooray!!)
I hope this surgery won't affect it too much
I prayed that everything will turn out to be just OK when the time comes
And I tried and will still try to leave all my worries to the lord above
But of course, keep my mind sharp and prepared to grab hold of the opportunities whenever they surface


I know it's a little BIT out-dated
But 下一站,幸福 is AWESOME!!!
People would have the preconception of...
"Meh...another taiwan drama, another waste of time..."
BUT PLEASE DO NOT THINK OF THIS DRAMA THIS WAY!!! PLEASE!!!
I've learned a lot from this touching drama
And I admit that I shed a few tears throughout the whole 20 episodes
Because it's really that nice and really that touching!!!
From the characters in the drama, I learned a few important principles in life...
1. To live life to the fullest with no regrets, is to live life and treat life full-heartedly
2. There's always people who suffers more than you do, your problems are always smaller when you look carefully into others
3. Trust is love, then love is trust
4. There's always a space for a person to stand up against injustice and it is always good to lend a helping hand, it's simply a display of love
5. People change, not always negatively, but positively too. So please don't write people off based on what they have done previously.

I could go on and on......



Meaningful September, I hope I can carry these teachings for the rest of my life~ I will try!
