Confessions Of A Compulsive Hoarder

My parents said that one of the contributing factor of the thinning of ozone layer is the stuff in my room.

So last night, I launched a brave crusade to chuck away the stuff that I don't need. I got stuck almost every 5 minutes. I couldn't make any decision on which stuff to throw away. This continues till earlier this evening. Haih!

You know why is it hard for me to discard stuff that I hoard? Because I'm afraid that I cannot remember any single thing that reminds me of my childhood. I've thrown away cards, notes, diaries that I kept during my childhood these 4-3 years back because I don't have space anymore to keep them. It was a regrettable action. :(

I'm such a sentimentalist.

Tips Dalam Perhubungan

*Ini adalah peringatan untuk diri sendiri, sekiranya saya mempunyai seseorang dalam hidup saya kelak.*


Walapun kita mempunyai pasangan yang mencintai diri kita seadanya, tidak salah untuk kita terus berusaha memperbaiki diri demi perasaan dicintai itu berpanjangan.

Contohnya, kalau muka memang semulajadi tak berapa lawa, tak salah untuk kita bergaya berpakaian cantik-cantik untuk menampakkan kita menarik.

Kalau terasa rambut buruk, boleh usaha pergi ke salun nak cantikkan rambut.

Pendek kata, kalau kita menunjukkan usaha, mungkin pasangan kita akan berusaha untuk memperbaiki diri mereka pula.

Wallahualam...

Just A Dream

Been dreaming to have a bedroom that looks like these:

Wisdom From 2 Women

1.S

Not too long ago, I bumped into an old friend, S at a supermarket. It was shocking to hear that she had just got divorced. Before this, she was all lovey-dovey with her ex-husband. Even though she and her ex-husband had known each other for 4 years before they were married, they realized that they were not made for each other only after 5 years of marriage. S said she regrets that she got married rather hastily because back then she was so afraid she wouldn't find another man if she didn't marry her ex. Nevertheless, S seemed so positive with her future, she already moved on. She also advised me to be strong, to be careful in making choices, and most importantly, to be grateful with what I have.

2. El

My cousin El broke off her engagement. I am amazed by El because she doesn't struck me as rebellious and brave. Her former fiance wasn't mature enough to get married. She told me that she'd rather bear the embarrassment of broken engagement than a broken marriage. El is optimistic too, she knows that Allah has better plans for her.

Life is about trusting our feelings & taking chances, losing & finding happiness, appreciating the memories & learning from the past.

31

Another year has gone by, I am thankful that I'm still alive. Alhamdulillah.

Though feeling a little bit melancholic, I'm trying not to be a negative person. What could be worse than turning 31 right? It's just another year.

Besides, I believe in this quote “Life may not be the party you hoped for but while we are here, we should dance”

In 2010, I learned a few life lessons. But it's too personal for me to blog about it in details.

For this year's resolutions, I will try not to let ego gets the best of me. I will admit when I'm wrong. You should do that too. Thus, I will be more forgiving. I won't simply shut people out from my life just because they hurt my feelings. Nobody's perfect, including me. Even if people disappoint me, I will be more patient. I will never expect them to change overnight. I will learn to accept people just the way they are. If they continue to disappoint me, I will ignore them for a while. Heh.

I will try to be more appreciative of people. I will build more bridge, not create walls around me. I hope this year I won't get “older but not wiser” sentiment anymore.

So yeah, Happy Birthday to me.

How to Stop Holding a Grudge

By an eHow Contributor

Everyone gets hurt or disappointed at some point. Some people are able to shake things off and move on. Others hold on to resentment for years. If you are holding a grudge, follow these steps to forgive and let go.


Instructions

1. Decide to move on. You expend more energy holding a grudge than you do letting one go. Make the choice to clear up the mental space occupied by this resentment. Once you choose to move on, the grudge will gradually dissipate.

2. Honor your feelings. Resentment builds when emotions go unacknowledged. Take the time to get clear about what you're feeling and why. Take action accordingly. If you have something that needs to be said, say it. If you have already voiced your grievance, then resolve any other feelings yourself.

3. Accept what is. Stop waiting for signs of remorse. Chances are the other person has already put the issue behind them. You may never get an apology, but that doesn't mean you should continue to indulge resentment. Be the bigger person and put the incident behind you.

4. Forgive. Forgiving someone doesn't exempting them from their actions. It doesn't change the facts. If you have been legitimately wronged, then forgiving doesn't mean you have to forget. It does mean that you acknowledge that the person is human and that we all make mistakes.

5. Shift your focus. Look at the good things about the person. Find the positive in the situation. Maybe you learned a lesson and discovered something new about yourself. Changing your viewpoint will help you release resentment.

6. Don't feed the monster. Once you've voiced your resentment and committed to moving on, don't continually talk about the offense. If you find yourself thinking about it, mentally change the subject. If someone brings it up, explain that it's in the past and you don't want to dwell on it.
