Then, it was a First Intravarsity Private University camp take place in Hoeh Beng Temple near RAja Chulan LRT (23-28th December)

Date boy friend on 28th and 29th December

Then, rest at home for one week. During the one week of rest at hometown is not really a rest too. I plan to do my FYP, but I haven't start it at all. Cause I was busy blogging for a few pending post.
Actually, I have make an ideal schedule on when to do what. But sometimes, ideal seem to prefect for reality.

Going for another camp by UTAR Buddhist Society from 7th Jan - 15th Jan 2015.

School reopen on 18th Jan. One week had past as it's 25th Jan now. And I actually still have a feel pending post to blog on. Noted it here, so that I will constantly remind of myself after I settle on the things that I seem as Priority.

Actually, I am glad that I made it. On the resolution on 2016. that is to spent more time on

Campus life (Friends & Buddhist Society), 

Final Year Project

Study

Family

 I have been so pre-occupied until I didn't arrange time to date my boy friend. Because this would be my final semester in my entire tertiary study. and I don't wanna look at it with REGRET in the future.

So my pending posts are as below

1. 2015 Reflection and 2016 Resolution.
2. Travel Post: Wave Rest House review
3. Writing featured article on Clicksforcake
4. Travel Post: Bangkok Trip Day 3, 4, & 5
5. Travel Post: Oma Home
6. Travel Post: Baiyoke Suite Hotel


 I feel so sorry to Clicksforcake as I have promise to write featured article for them, eventhough without any paid, but I really love cakes, and I don't mind writing for free. The person in charge of CLicksforcake has been so nice to me. And people with the same passion always CLicks together. She allows me to keep on dragging on the duedate for the article submission, but sadly, I cant manage time that well.

Anyway, if you wander what is Clicks_for_cake, click here to view it.

Previously, I have been spenting so much time to build my blogging network. And just as my blogging career started to get ceaselessly invitation, food review invitation, launching, concert events. I have to say NO to them.

Frankly. I felt sorry to myself for saying NO to those events. Although attending to events, get free stuff is not the ultimate reason for me to keep on blogging. But it definitely motivate me to blog more. (BTW, as much as you think that blogger get free stuff easily, that is not how you see. I am quite passionate in term of blogging, and one post with video probably took me 3 FULL DAYS to complete one, DO NOT EVER LOOK DOWN ON THE EFFORT that blogger put on one Simple short post. In my case, I could have probably use the 3 days to do research on my Final Year Project ).


But rationally, I have made a decision to focus on the things that I have been prioritise, not to say that I am  quit on blogging, but as much as BLogging remain to be my passion, Prioritse things remain to be the first thing to do.


As much as I understand that I might lose some readership, and invitation from various PR companies, I am clear that Passionate in Blogging never die, and blogging life still going on with or without event invitation.

Super thanks for everyone who have invite me to their events, and making my blogging career raise to another level higher.

Morning!!! Wake up early and I have extra time to spent on doing things that I like!
I learnt that if you sleep early and wake up early, you will have 2 hours extra time to do anything that you like.

Said like I sleep 11pm, then automatic will wake up 8am, then my next agenda is 10am, hence I have 8am - 10am, 2 hours for myself!! And it's quite meaningful for me la. Coz I could have use the time to blogging, editting photos, edit videos, or do some reading, or any pending to do list.

Even though so far I am so busy I don't have time for workout.

Went to  see my FYP supervisor few days ago. And I learnt that why we need get resources/reference want credible souces such as books. I MEAN, before this, I understand why we cannot simply cite information online (because it is not verified, and could be written by anyone, even though they are not expert in the related field. )

Then this is what my supervisor told me

" If you cite from books, journals, then you are getting information from expert in the field , like professor, linguists, researchers who have done a lot of deep depth research before they publish their journals, and books. 

Citing from books could be from anyone. It mostly incorporate opinion and their obversation. And they might not have done proper research prior that. (which mean their information could have misleading)

Most of the researchers, expert will choose publish their finding in books or journals. "

The beginning of 2016, something that struck my heart so deep is this news. 

" 大家是否还记得这位接近一年前去关怀过的独居老妇？

由于相隔了一个多月，今早决定带些食物过去探望她。在车上谈着这个学期毕业之后要交给谁去处理，新年过后几时抽空过来帮忙打扫等等的。到了她家在门外喊了一段时间都没人应门，在门外嗅到有异味，而且也有很多苍蝇。从百叶窗拉开窗帘望去，发现老妇躺在门边，怀疑已经过世了一段时间。于是，决定去找附近的警察局去报案。看着警察、救护人员、村民们来来回回的，从帮忙开门到如何处理身后事。我们全程都在，直到看着警方把尸体送去解剖。
心里想着，是不是如果我们没来，就不会有人知道她离开了？通过警方的口中得知附近其实还有很多独居的老人，他们都无依无靠，我们是不是能够做点什么，多去关心他们呢？其实昨天也有一个妇女过来看看她，可是敲了几次门没人应声之后，她就离开了。这也让我思考，是不是以后我们能够多做一些，如果没人应声，可能还可以再多看看，或许只是晕倒什么的，就能救了别人？
从这件事情，我也深深地体悟到生命无常。生命只在呼吸之间，一下子就没有了。平时我们握得多么紧，多么在乎的事情，在死亡面前都显得那么的渺小。我们能够做的就是活在当下，把自己该做的本分做好。
筹款剩下的RM122.05，我会捐给老人院。目前，老妇生前有养的小猫已经无人照顾，希望能够有人能够代替领养那只小猫。"

因为这个发生，它让我更近一步明白什么是无常～～～如果你问我有没有做过后悔的决定？答案是有，但是想不想时间倒回去，然后从来。。。。　我的答案是，后悔就后悔了，人生无常，也没有那么多的如果，也没有早知道这东西。。。

因为觉得死亡距离我们其实很遥远，所以觉得等以后得空时才去看婆婆，因为我把很多ｐｒｉｏｒｉｔｙ都放在这位婆婆以前，such as assignment, bf, friends, and why not I just go visit my own gramma, and so on..... 很可惜的，就这样。。。。时间慢慢的一妙一秒的流失，才从ｆａｃｅｂｏｏｋ知道婆婆过世了。。。。
