Thing That Never Change!

As promised, i went to watch movie "AVATAR" with my fellow friends. The movie was superb. I guess it will be awesome if i watch it in 3D.

This was the second time i watched movie in Germany. Previously was 2012. Both were great. But, when i watched these movies, i turned moody. Flashing back the happy moment i had when i watched "Final Destination" and "Orphan". Well, although those movies were nice, but the most memorable moments were the moments when i watched its with someone i fell to.

That was the moment i cherish! Remembering the warm hand i am holding, with the smile on the face and eyes contacts we had . It was the sweetest moment. Though it was just momentary, i appreciate each of every moment.

Time passed, it has been 3 months plus. Many thing changed, people changed, environment changed, everything changed. But something remain the same.......

I guess, i had another emo blog again! I hate emo blog. Make me loose my cool. Letting people see how weak i am. But no help, this is the nature of red hat!

Moving on, but cherish the moment of happiness.

I remembered when H had conflict with J couple of years ago and H said "You won't understand until you really fell with someone"
Now i really understand it!

My latest picture!

Changes!

Time moving fast! Just a few days, and it will be year end and we will be stepping into 2010. Another year of aging.
Time passed, and thing changed!

I remember last week was snowing and now all the snow gone! Christmas passed and waiting for new year. Well, i suppose that Christmas and New Year will be a celebration for everyone. Or worst come to worst, you will stay back in home with family members.

During the Christmas eve, i was complaining to myself that i felt a bit lonely. Coz i can't celebrate it. But, thing changed when i found out that my housemate was still in and wanted to go home. Someone who stay so near to his family stayed back in hostel during Christmas eve. Alone!
At that moment, i felt that i staying alone is not a big deal.

But, what M said was right. No matter how, i am still the red hat thinker as defined by Edward de Bono. My emotion changed according to time. I lost my inspiration. Started to feel down.
Well, though Mervin is an emotional being, but he has the capability hiding it. After all, Mervin still a secretive being just like J.hehe!


Moving on! Examination is coming soon! Fun time over!

What make me sad when i realized that Chinese New Year will be during my examination period. Plus, my birthday will be the day before my birthday. Sigh.... Though some of the time i celebrated it alone, but i don't feel like studying on the day where i got a year older! hehe...

contributed by Daniel Ngan!

look familiar right? but unfortunately my photoshop skill too bad!

I remembered that B and few of my Germany friends asked me " what is your plan for this Christmas and New Year holiday?"
And i answer " I don't know!"

Well, up till today, i still don't know what i can do for those days. I was heart broken, worried, upset and tired for last few days. I almost lost my direction, but as i promised K and S who are coming to Germany with their friends. i have to be their tour guide, put aside my sorrow moment and enjoy the days of xciment!. Initially, i thought everything will be up side down since i not really know about the places in Germany. BUT..... i remember a song lyrics "we can always make a start".......... and........

Our first handmade poster!

Guess, my idea of creating a Germany version of Xcite isn't bad either! It make me happier!


Day 1 (Dec 18, 2009)
Guess what! our first mission was making a snowman under -4 degree Celsius. Took 15 minutes walk from my hostel to the park at 12.30am under snow!

It started with the journey of coldness!





and.... tada! mission successful.

the process of making a snowman is ain't easy! you need to Xperience it under Xtreme temperature. As the result, you well get the Xciment of your self-made Snowman!

MISSION 1 ACCOMPLISHED!

I was rather full of stress and unhappiness these few days. But INCOVAR inspired me to move on and enjoy the very moment of life!

ps:More pictures and xperience of xciment coming soon! Stay tune!

Impermanence!

Time changes everything! Impermanence!

From the 1st day i stepped my leg on Germany until today many thing changed.
From autumn with 17 degree Celsius to winter with -4 degree Celsius. And now with a little snow.

Back then i was a pathetic jerk who keep looking back. Living the the world of past. Thinking how wonderful the 'world' back in the home country. Keep complaining! Refuse to move on.

But as time passed. I grew up. I know that I must move on. Keep looking forward. Take those sweet as memories and bitter as lessons to learn.

It has been 2 and half months. But my progression is rather slow. Everything is behind the schedule. I need to start running now. Else, i will miss out even more.

As the same time, i start to open myself to this new life, new world. Opening myself to people i not even meet before. Let myself know more about the life here. Get to know people here. I was once told that, "It's hard to have German friends." Well, until now the fact is still true to me. But, it does not imply to each and every German here.

Last night i had an outing with A and B. Someone i just know. Somehow thing turn to be smooth and we had a great chat and conversation. Though those 2 are a bit far away from my place, but at least i make my first move by meeting them. Really looking forward for another outing. I don't really mind going to karaoke here in Germany though i can't sing. LOL! Coz A is just like me, can't sing either. We just sang out loud without caring that we were out of tune. Surprisingly B sang so well.

The Persistence of Memory by Dali

Guess this was the drawing A and B talking about. When they are trying to interpret the message behind this drawing! I got no idea about this picture when they were talking about that. They told me that i was a picture with melting clock and the cemetery. And i even made a joke that the picture is telling us that "when the time come, everyone have to die" LOL!

Hmm.... guess this picture has some relation about my title!

My First Winter!

I was suppose to blog out a lot of stuff, but somehow i failed to do so.

It's winter now. I remembered that, when i was in my childhood time, i craved for snow, for winter. I guess you all have that thought also. In my mind, winter should be a nice thing, when the whole place full of snows.

But, i guess i was wrong, term and condition applied.

I was my first time in oversea, and it will the first winter for me. Back in Malaysia, you either experiencing hot sunny day or raining day. No such thing as winter,spring,summer and autumn. These thing only exist in my geography book or in the movie.

Well, no snow yet. But the temperature here is about 4-7 degree Celsius. I remembered someone told me you will feel depressed during winter. I guess, they were right, it's really depressing. Especially when you hardly see the sun, it's either cloudy or raining. Moreover, you see no sun before 10am and get dark by 4pm. With the cold temperature, you won't feel like going out. That's why people have mood swing during winter. No me, myself alone, but also people around me.

Worst thing is when you sick. Gone case! you will eventually feel homesick. Crave for care and love!

Depression! Make me moody, lazy and less productive. No mood to study or either do anything. Just feel like sleeping and sleeping. Just like animal hibernating! LOL!

Opss! Break time over, i need to get back study after many unproductive day due to sickness.
