8/5/12 Good Nature & Compounding problems


Let me begin by saying... Things just get better and better.

At times like this all you can rely on is the 'Good Nature' of people. It had only come to my attention yesterday that sadly... I have lost my wallet. The last I remember having it in my hands is at a Chinese restaurant on Saturday. Considering we left we paid, I highly doubt it will be there. I have looked top to bottom at home, and it is no where to be found, which makes me believe I either dropped it or it was stolen... The sad thing is that, this particular wallet was a 18th birthday gift... I don't mind too much about the cards they can get replaced some more easily than others but me being such a sentimental person as I am, the wallet isn't something that can be replaced.

Which brings me back to my initial thought - Time to believe in the Good Nature of people. This is something I have always done will most likely will continue to do despite being hurt time and time again. I have been brought up to expect people would do the right thing as I would. I would literally drive to someones house if I had of found their wallet, is it wrong to expect others to do the same?

Additionally I am beginning to think I have an issue with my right eye... I beleive it is slightly blurry. I did suspect I had a problem with it earlier on but I put it down to just my whole dermititis problem (which is creeping back up on me again, may I add). Honestly I wouldn't be surprised if I had to get glasses, in anycase I will need to book a trip to the Optometrist for later this week. I was going to put it off till after exams but it is really starting to bug/ worry me. Do I get smarter if I wear glasses?

On a completely random note, due to me issues with the above dilemmas... I forgot to order this bag for my mum. Usually it wouldn't bother me but she mention it a few times. Jeez... Really Victor? The auction ended a little after 10 and I only remembered at 10.30. Way to compound problems. Slightly off topic... Home life isn't exactly the best it has been. In fact it is the worst it has been for a while. I  have always kept my home life relativly private therefore I won't expanding much more than that. All this leads me to wonder if things around here will pick up. Only time will tell.

3/5/12 Resonates


This page simply resonates with me and my personality. It is a page from Sun-Ken-Rock (vol 12, ch12), something you would not expect when you are reading a gang-related manga. Like Ken, when I am focused, with no distractions I always surprise myself of what I am able to accomplish. Simple minded focus is a powerful weapon, just need to ensure I use it far more than I have been in the past.

1/5/12 Pro-active


Well Well Well... I ran into an old friend at the shopping centre the other day and wow. Its surprising how long it has been since I have last seen him. Basically he was the one who always made the dates to meet up and hang out but when he stopped doing that we simply stopped hanging out, needless to say I never really made a effort. I guess I expected him too since he always had in the past. By long, I am talking about 2 years. Time really flies, doesn't it? In any case this chance meeting has made me reflect a little bit of how I am treating those close to me and what I expect of them. Over the years I have come to realise I have been somewhat isolating myself and this is something that needs to chance. I do treasure my friends relationships, I have always put them on a pedestal especially with those I feel close too BUT for relationships to truly prosper effort must be made on both sides. Honestly, its not something I am quite used too but I don't want years to go by again without my realising.

Time to be proactive.
