Inspiration

At times when you think that you have failed at everything, you have really just succeeded. You have realized that you are not perfect, that not everything turns out just right in life.

Think about all the good things you have done, the good times in your life. You have definitely made a difference in someone else’s life, you just don’t know it – I can guarantee it. If you are reading this blog, you have made a difference in my life.

Think about this: How can I do any better? What can I do to make a difference, to help more people, to change the world, one small step at a time?

Think about the future, not the past. Hope for the best, not the worst.

Believe in yourself and you too can make a difference in the world.

Simple, beauty, happy

So, once again, it's been a long time since I posted. I've opened up a document so many times trying to type a post. I have so much that I want to say, but I am always just so tired or too preoccupied doing something else that I don't end up posting.

Anyways, my summer so far has been really good. I've enjoyed it, spent a lot of time with my family and gotten a lot closer with them, however the only thing I am missing is my connection with my friends. I know lots of them hang out with each other a lot… however, I usually blame that on the fact that I don't live close enough, it's not like I can get out the door and walk 10 minutes to a friends house. But I guess that's just an excuse. Anyways, I still enjoy spending all this time with my family. I've enjoyed it and feel fortunate to be able to do that, cause lots of people cant, and I thank God for that.

See, this week went by so slowly… it seems like the things that I did last Sunday was done two or three weeks ago. I've just done so much stuff this week that it feels like time passed slowly. It's not that I didn't enjoy myself, it just feels like I was doing the things for a really long time. Anyways, last Sunday I went to a park. A really big park, overseeing parts of lake Ontario and there were lots of people there. It was just my dad and me though. I wish more people came. It was really nice there. And it was a great time to think about the past. I remember when I was young like grade oneish, my dad would always bring my brother and I there. It's really nice, and I really miss the place.

Oh and last Thursday I got myself a DSLR. It was really expensive, and I feel really bad for getting it. However, I am still really enjoying it. I really love taking pictures and now with the dslr I can take even more pictures and make them look even nicer. It was really hard to decide which one to get. I have been thinking about it for months now and I've asked a lot of people online and done lots of research. I thought it would be really easy to take lots of nice pictures like everyone else. But then I realized that that wasn't the case. My pictures look really bad, better than before, but still bad. I hope that I will be able to take better pictures though, I know I just need practice. But the thing is lots of people fix up their pictures on like photoshop or hdr it on photomatix, although I have photoshop, I'm really not good at it, and I don't know how to do much things with it, so I cant really make my pictures look better with it. However, I know that a good picture needs a good photographer, and I'm willing to try to be that good photographer. Anyways, I've got lots of practicing chances in hk and japan in august, so I will take lots and ltos and lots of pictures =D

I also went to Niagara falls. That is a place that I go to every year with my dad. He says that he likes to go there every year just to see the falls. And he always wants us to go with him, so of course I went. However. This year, because calvin had summer school he did not go, only I went with him. Although it was just the two of us, we still had a good time. The good thing is that I got my camera so I took lots of pictures. We went out to the street to walk around and stuff which was relly cool.

I went to Nathan Philips square and other places down town with my dad as well. The cool thing is I spent some time walking outside… although I was born here and all, I've never actually walked outside. So it was a good experience and it was really cool there. I also took lots of pictures as you would have guessed.

The next day… Wednesday, I went to the gym. Finally. I always say I will go and I want to go and blah blah blah, but I never end up going. It sucks. But yeah, I finally ended up going and im happy that I went. But now my triceps are sore. Haha. It's a good thing. I hope to go more… but then there isn't much time for me to go because im going to hk… although there is a gym there, I only went once last year.

On Friday I went out to dim sum with my family and it was a nice relaxing morning. And then the rest of the day and majority of today my mom and my uncle were discussing about booking a cruise for the Christmas holidays and we were looking for good deals and plane prices online and stuff. We finally booked it today. It took a really really really long time. But in the end we booked it. I don't really think that we need to go on a cruise… cause it's expensive and all, but my brother wants to… so I cant really say anything. But I guess its another chance for me to take lots of pictures haha…

So yeah, majority of my mind revolves around my tvb, hk, pictures and am trying to push myself to do homework.

Anywho, it's late… or should I say really early.

I never get enough sleep. It doesn't make sense. It's summer, so I should be able to sleep in and sleep more, but its either I cant sleep at night, wake up half way, or someone wakes me up in the morning.

Anyways, hopefully I will post again before I leave for hk next Sunday. I will be on in hk too.

So see you guys soon!

Love you all =D
