Optimistic and pessimistic

People always say, try to be a little bit more optimistic and positive, good things will come to those that believe very much that they can achieve it.
Needless to say, when comparing between being optimistic and being pessimistic, of course an optimist would be better than a pessimist.

Now then, do you agree that being optimistic also means expecting something good and better to happen to oneself?
Maybe they're both different things, but there's a simple link between the two.
When you're optimistic, you tend to expect better things to happen to you later in life..
And of course in contrast pessimistic people would expect less good things and more conflicts in their paths.

It's true that being optimistic would make people happier in some way, and pessimistic people tend to be sadder although they're not in a situation that they should be worrying about anything at all.

Hmm, but lets take a look at the other side.

An optimist would probably be more active, happy, and outgoing in certain stuff with positive power in their mind. Thus, things would usually be better for them.
But what if some things, that're unpredictable and uncontrollable happens?
When you're being optimistic about certain things, and there're some things that you're powerless against, things that you're doomed to fail at, what would happen?
There's a saying, the greater the expectations, the greater the disappointment.
There may people that's soooooooo optimistic that they'll keep continuing being positive..
But how many of us are capable of being like that?
Especially when things that you want the most... can't be attained at all.. even though hard efforts and sacrifices are done and made?
What if it didn't happen just once, but many times more?

Is it safe to assume that some optimist are just being ignorant of their current condition? Especially to those that encountered multiple failures..
Being happy at all times?
What a joke.

I'm not saying being pessimistic is good either.. Some people that're so pessimistic they let go of things they could've obtain and achieve..
But then, since they're already so negative before shits happen, they probably won't be that down when it actually happens..

So, it's probably true that when you ask people to be more optimistic, you're indirectly telling them to expect better things, which would most likely affect them greatly when they experience a downfall..

Summing it up, being neutral is probably the best choice..
Do more, complain less, and expect less than others.

Smile.

Just a pretty short entry..
Do you believe that some people smile better when they're at their saddest moments?
It's a weird question... but what do you think about it?

Reasons

Why must everything be so complicated?
Why? Instead of finding reasons NOT to love, why can't we find ways to make it work out?
Should we commit ourselfs only after we're sure that we can last till marriage?
Should we think about all possible obstacles before taking the first step?

If people don't take risks, they're taking a greater risk.

I'm powerless because of this, but it's a risk i'm willing to take, because of those three words.

Pressure ar~

Wahsai~ For the past few days there's so many pressures building up in me..
Studies + Exam + Retarded thoughts + 'that'..
Can't believe for a brief moment there i've considered taking up smoking to relieve it..
But i guess that's just escaping those pressures.

Staying home alone is so dangerous sia...
Stupid thoughts will fill the mind and eventually you'll find yourself sad for no particular reason at all..

Mid semester is just around the corner and i'm still playing games like i'm enjoying my holidays o.O~
Well, what can I say? Procrastination is something i do best :D

Hohoh, before I go gaming at gg client~ I just wanna say
I Love Pig~

Fragile.

So fragile.
Pet cat was knocked dead 30th March 2009.
Onli information i know was that it's a golden coloured VIOS.
Once i've make sure which golden VIOS owner drove so fucking carelessly causing my pet cats death..
Sooner or later someone's windshield is going to break.

Valentine's day.

Valentine's day is coming~

I would've forgotten about it if it weren't for people talking about it sooo much~ o.o..
Seems like guys with a gal needs to brainstorm for ideas to satisfy their gf's super hopeful heart of getting a romantic something from their guys.
Well yeah, good luck to em. They'd probably need it.

But i think it's quite strange~~
Maybe i've been watching too many dramas/animes/mangas and all, but i thought the ones that should give the partner something in a relationship should've been the girls..
And 1 month after that which is the white day, then only it's the guys turn to give back the girls something...
But strangely, girls usually almost give nothing to the guy at all!!! And guys that doesn't do something good for the girl in Valentine's day will usually be critized..

Sucks right? Lol.

But i won't have to worry bout that anyways =x

This might be early, but have a good time to those planning to celebrate Valentine's day~
I'd probably be revising for my mid semester finals during that time.. T.T

Peace out~

Personality Test.

Tried this test i've found from Jean Yi's blog. http://www.jeangalz.blogspot.com/

Your view on yourself:
You are down-to-earth and people like you because you are so straightforward. You are an efficient problem solver because you will listen to both sides of an argument before making a decision that usually appeals to both parties.

The type of girlfriend/boyfriend you are looking for:
You are a true romantic. When you are in love, you will do anything and everything to keep your love true.

Your readiness to commit to a relationship:
You are ready to commit as soon as you meet the right person. And you believe you will pretty much know as soon as you might that person.

The seriousness of your love:
You like to flirt and behave seductively. The opposite sex finds this very attractive, and that's why you'll always have admirers hanging off your arms. But how serious are you about choosing someone to be in a relationship with?

Your views on education:
You may not like to study but you have many practical ideas. You listen to your own instincts and tend to follow your heart, so you will probably end up with an unusual job.

The right job for you:
You're a practical person and will choose a secure job with a steady income. Knowing what you like to do is important. Find a regular job doing just that and you'll be set for life.

How do you view success:
You are afraid of failure and scared to have a go at the career you would like to have in case you don't succeed. Don't give up when you haven't yet even started! Be courageous.

What are you most afraid of:
You are afraid of things that you cannot control. Sometimes you show your anger to cover up how you feel.

Who is your true self:
You are mature, reasonable, honest and give good advice. People ask for your comments on all sorts of different issues. Sometimes you might find yourself in a dilemma when trapped with a problem, which your heart rather than your head needs to solve.

_______________________________________________________

I'm not sure if this personality test is accurate, since it isn't up to me to decide whether or not i possess those values stated. Then again, since test like this usually gives out compliment(mature, attractive, honest etc), people will probably think it's accurate. (Why so? =x)

Missing it.

Lol, i didn't even update during christmas or new year.
I wonder should i say yes or no when ppl ask me if i got a blog or not because i rarely update it =x..

Recently, listening to love songs makes my heart ache.
Especially when i'm boring and alone at home...
Thoughts will fill my head and etc~
That's why i'm currently active in sports =x...
To keep it out of my mind~
I'm trying to keep a balance between my studies/assignments and also fill my lifestyle with much entertainment~
I wanna escape reality~
But not neglect it =x..
To be honest, even though i always say being in a relationship is troublesome ("mendokuse" in japansese)
And costly
And stressful
And it may be a waste of time
And it may not last
And more
I miss that feeling alot.
But i don't think i'm commited enough to do so.
Due to the reasons above.
I barely have enough money to spend on myself.
My schedule is also quite packed.
My sleep debt is accumulating, so i wanna rest during weekends and not work part time.
Or actually it's because i'm lazy. =x

But i'm missing the feeling that makes me smile when i go to bed.

I think i'll be single for a very long time.
Anyway, i still have my left hand as my lover.
Lol.
And that's the end of this entry.

Ah wait.
I haven't really think of a new year's resolution yet.
Hmm....
I guess it's to get through college without any fails.
And keep on being active in badminton.
One more thing.
I wonder if this is a resolution or not..
I guess i'll try stuff to make myself taller.
=D.

Happy new year 2009!
