What does it take to be able to appreciate that you are blessed? Because lately I’ve been feeling that often, even when things don’t exactly go the ‘best’ way. And I want to always remember how to be thankful for such a temperamental thing as luck.

Once again illustrating how people meant to be a big part of each other’s lives will always find their way to each other :’)
Unrelated note, I cannot work with imbeciles with no sense of basic professionalism and only minor capability. I have come to expect a certain standard after the pleasure of working with people in RG/RJ. Kmn.
Judging others is in itself not inherently wrong, but should be accompanied by also taking a long, hard look at yourself, and whether you recognize only what you cannot accept about your own character.
Sometimes you learn lessons from the most unlikely sources, and you have to be able to recognize their importance.

Wish I could know what having the 3 meant. And if it told you specifically what was meant to happen, and when. Wouldn’t that be ideal in minimizing heartbreak?

So unfortunately there is a difference between believing that everything will work out in the end, and the sense of assurance that should come with it, and things not going your way. I worry/plan way too much.

Funny when you feel bound to something you never let exist.
You can take us out of Cambodia, but you can never take Cambodia out of us.
Whoa I really wonder how different everything would be without OSL… or if that first foray hadn’t been so well executed.
I have come to realise/accept that in order to maximize happiness, I have to be sharing it with others.
Can’t decide if that’s a good or bad thing, actually.
Its an awesome sunday afternoon
- Nothing like communication with a dear teacher who’s known you for 7 years that makes you get all warm and fuzzy inside.
- Waking up for wholesome brunch (lunch) off campus with the rugby girls.. so worth it.

So people you dislike are usually insufferable pains to be around, and bring you significant joy in bitchin’, but you gotta admit that in being such asses, they inevitably teach you lessons about how not to behave and at times, about yourself.
