The last day of work was spent rushing around to settle all the outstanding items, meeting up with colleagues, playing Santa distributing chocolates, taking photos and well a little emotional for me towards the end. Met up with J and the bf and we went to Rochester to have dinner, food at nosh was pretty good to say, might go back there a second time. Took the train down to my usual Lan shop and played left4dead 2 for 3 hours non-stop at advanced and normal level which was absolutely crazy but very enjoyable.
Anyhow, got to learn that my granduncle has terminal cancer, stage 4, but responding well to chemotherapy. Despite it, he didn't tell us during the chinese new year holidays and still remain cheerful and upbeat, I guess he didn't want people worrying. I felt ashamed that compared to my life, how a person with terminal cancer could be more optimistic than I. I think I should learn to be more thankful of the more important things in life. It's times like this when you have to re-adjust your priorities because life is short.
School starts on Monday and well shall have to go back to the student routine.

butterfly dreams
- the dream catcher
- "For attractive lips, speak words of kindness. For lovely eyes, seek out the good in people. For a slim figure, share your food with the hungry. For beautiful hair, let a child run their fingers through it once a day. For poise, walk with the knowledge that you never walk alone. People, more than things, have to be restored, renewed, revived, reclaimed, and redeemed. Remember, if you ever need a helping hand, you will find one at the end of each of your arms. As you grow older, you will discover that you have two hands, one for helping yourself and the other for helping others.”
