Dear Blogspot

Dear Blogspot,
There's no easy way to say this. Do you recall that night when I was out surfing around the world wide web? I'm afraid I've found someone better looking and well-connected than you. It's not you, it's me. Oh wait, maybe it's you :p. We had a good run together, thanks for always being there for me.... Friends?

I'll be at http://smilili.tumblr.com :)

Love,
Lili Smi

why?

Just because.

what a funny advert. It's like 'just because your life sucks doesn't mean your skin needs to be'...so buy Biore!

life

I just want to do the best i can so that i can have the freedom to choose my future and not be limited by factors such as 'i didn't try hard enough'

What's in may be out

Back in malaysia, guys would wear football jerseys to class. I just read from
The Age about an interviewed lawyer who claimed he would never be caught dead in a football jersey, or anything sporty when he's not doing sports. It's all about perceptions baby.

Think Global, Act Local

Today marks the last ever lecture (Globalisation) of my undergraduate degree, which is like saying goodbye to a friend. Yes, I am that nerdy, I actually enjoy lectures very much. To be honest, I enjoyed my final year subjects a lot and I think it’s because I’m more committed this year in understanding the contents of my subjects and I made more effort to think about how I can use that information to improve my life. So it is really like getting to know a friend, don’t be too quick to jump into conclusion about anything or anyone you know, take the time to get to know them and you will find everyone/everything in life is a learning process. Even at the today’s final lecture, I was still learning something new. The lecturer showed one of the student’s work for our “blogging assignment” and the student actually recorded an entire video on “The 10 Commandments of Globalisation”. It may sound cheesy and unnecessary (taking into account a cynic’s POV here) but I assure you it is not. So what I learnt, or rather…realised, is that…

• I may think that I’ve done the best I can for a subject but there’s always someone out there who is trying just as hard or even harder than I am.
• Put in 100% (or 110% :P) in everything you do, just so that you won’t live with regrets (Of course you have to take into account the opportunity cost/trade-off required to do so)

Another reason why I feel sad that my student life is ending is because when I’m studying for my last ever undergraduate final papers, I have instances where I’m like “oh, I should have done..this and that…” and then I realize it’s already the last semester and that’s it, no more opportunity to improve or do whatever I wanted to do in uni. (I know I know, I can always do postgrad or fail (CHOI) if I want to stay in uni  but that’s not the point)

As a form of consolation, I’m happy with the choices I made this year and I’m not going to focus on ‘What Ifs” and instead focus on “What’s Next” and…the beautiful weather today and the Smashmouth song playing in the background :)

 

 

Oh yes, and throughout the whole semester, I’ve been telling my friends that my Globalisation lecturer looks like Shirley Schmidt from the US series, Boston Legal.

And now, I’ve finally got the evidence to prove it! :D
