Aww Little Nyonya ended =( No more nice show to look forward to everyday. Ohh this show is super nice. Even my dad who is anti-evening/night Chinese shows watched it! He used to come home earlier from gym just to catch the show. And for once, he didn’t nag at me and my sister for depriving him of his TV shows. Haha. Actually, if I hadn’t been sick that day I wouldn’t have religiously watched the show everyday. I watched the very first episode and found the show draggy and so I didn’t watch the following episodes until the day I fell sick. When I was sick, I lie on the sofa the whole day with the remote control in my hand and watched the Little Nyonya just to pass the time. Till I got hooked to it. Hehs.
Went to do homework with JN at Bishan Library yesterday. We kept going to the same place to study and I wanted a change of environment. But we couldn’t think of another place to go to and ended up at the same place. And JN eats the same thing every time we go there. Haha. So now every time I go to Bishan Library, I will think of the study dates with her. Actually haha come to think of it, the only times I go to Bishan Library are to study with her. Here’s an extract from JN’s 5 January 2009 post:
“talked and gossiped with FT at the end of the day. nice chat. (: cause can talk from primary school to jc. haha. oh. this year is the 10th year le! a decade!
“
Yeah. It was fun talking and doing nothing but just talking. We were seriously doing our homework until I got tired at around 4pm and we started talking all the way till 6pm or so. Yes, this year marks the 10th year of our friendship! =) I hope that our friendship will stay strong and that we’ll still keep in contact with each other even if we may not be in the same university etc. Maybe one day we’ll have a chat over lunch and we’ll bring our kids along with us. HAHA. Love you =D Really.
This is so depressing. I have reached the ‘Very Hard’ pages of my Sudoku book and I can’t solve them. It makes me irritated when I can’t get the puzzle done. I’m the kind of person who will want to see things through till the end and when they don’t, I’ll get mad at it. Ergh why am I getting angry over a book. My gosh.
I was watching the television this afternoon and this particular show made me think. It was an episode of True Courage. The show was a real life story of a family of 4; a girl and a younger boy. The father suffers from depression due to stress from work. One day he decided that life was too harsh for him and committed suicide, taking his son along with him. So on that day, a family of four was reduced to half. A mother lost not only her husband but her child.
In today’s world, depression is fast claiming more victims. With stress from various sources, many people succumb to depression and while some may be lucky enough to be able to fight back, some unfortunately fall and admit defeat. I just feel that society does not have the support that these people need. It is not just a mental disorder, it kills. And the victims are not the only ones who suffer. What about the people around them? They too, suffer when their loved ones fall into depression and they too suffer when they loved ones are snatched away from them. Depression is a ruthless killer.
