'Sometimes when you love someone very, very much, you want to tell them how great your feelings are. But, as Little Nutbrown Hare and Big Nutbrown Hare discover, love is not an easy thing to measure.'
- Guess how much I love you

Read the really cute story, which made me smile :)

'....love is not an easy thing to measure.'

A simple yet profound sentence. Got me thinking for a while.

How do you measure love?

So BN won the state election again.

The 7th, 7th!! term as CM :S :S :S (that's 7 times 4 years = 28th year)

All I hope and pray now is that conscience strikes those corrupt leaders.
Because of all their evil and selfish ways, there isn't any significant advancement in Sarawak at all. The growth of the state have been stagnant and idle. The leader aren't doing anything for the people and the state, but for their own personal gain!

I don't mind who wins, as long the interest is for the state and people.
And I long for the development of the people living in villages and that they have the opportunity to be educated.

Alice Lau, a first time contester cried when she lost. Her tears shed not because she lost the seat, but because '我输给金钱和政治!' How true!

I believe change will eventually happen. I believe its just a matter of time!

Tomorrow is and hopefully will be a significant day to me and my state, SARAWAK!
I love my state and I am proud to be a Sarawakian:D

16th April marks the 10th Sarawak state election and also Carey's birthday :)

Having read loads of wall post and some interesting articles online, I too am really excited to know the outcome of tomorrow's election.

I really am praying for a significant change in my state. It's really time that some changes are implemented and new blood is brought into the state government.
New people whom I truly hope are passionate about the welfare of the people and state, those who want to make a difference and who can deliver promises.

I've not registered to be a voter but I've told myself that I will do so when I'm back. In future, if I'm in the country or even in Singapore or another neighbouring country, I will make it a point to go home and vote. I do believe that every vote counts!

I really love my state and would really want to see a breakthrough in the political arena of my state. It really hurts and breaks my heart to know that the land and resources that belongs to the people are being 'owned' by some people who has been robbing the state of what we deserve!

Sometimes I wonder, why are some ministers so corrupt? Where were the promises they made at the start of their campaign? Why were the promises made conveniently forgotten?
Of course I'm sure they are people who stood for election with a passion to serve and make a difference. I do hope that continue to have that passion within them and deliver the promises they've made.

To my bestest guy friend ever,

Happy birthday!

You know I wish I could be there and I am looking forward to meet you soon :D

Today, Ann, Brian, Mike and Scott came down to Bristol to see me! At least that's what they say :D

So happy but then 9 hours just seemed so short:'(

Ann brought many books for me to read and have a look at. Seriously, there is no one else besides her who has been continuously encouraging me to try hard to work here.

A verse from her,
You will keep in perfect peace
those whose minds are steadfast,
because they trust in you.
Trust in the LORD forever,
for the LORD, the LORD himself,
is the Rock eternal.
Isaiah 26:3-4

Amen.

Children Learn What They Live
By Dorothy Law Nolte

If children live with criticism, they learn to condemn.

If children live with hostility, they learn to fight.

If children live with fear, they learn to be apprehensive.

If children live with pity, they learn to feel sorry for themselves.

If children live with ridicule, they learn to feel shy.

If children live with jealousy, they learn to feel envy.

If children live with shame, they learn to feel guilty.

If children live with encouragement, they learn confidence.

If children live with tolerance, they learn patience.

If children live with praise, they learn appreciation.

If children live with acceptance, they learn to love.

If children live with approval, they learn to like themselves.

If children live with recognition, they learn it is good to have a goal.

If children live with sharing, they learn generosity.

If children live with honesty, they learn truthfulness.

If children live with fairness, they learn justice.

If children live with kindness and consideration, they learn respect.

If children live with security, they learn to have faith in themselves and in those
about them.

If children live with friendliness, they learn the world is a nice place in which to live.

Ann posted this on her blog and I really think it's a good piece of advice.

Nath also mentioned that what habits we have now, we'll bring it into our family in future.

So true! It's so important that we reflect on our habits now. Cause if we dont change our bad habits, it'll still be a habit we hold onto even when we have children in future. And of course, I'd like to be a good example to my children. It's quite scary to know how easy it is to influence a child. I want to have well-mannered, polite and well behaved children in future and I will try to be the best example to them :D

I think my emotions has been on a roller coaster ride in the past 2 weeks.

Right now, it's an anxiety attack.

While drying my hair tonight, I realised that the week is almost over and that doesn't leave me with much time before I actually leave this place. Feels like there's still much to do yet time is running out. *panic*

Not being able to sleep now isn't helping :(
