Set Me Free

“To let go isn’t to forget, not to think about, or ignore. It doesn’t leave feelings of anger, jealousy, or regret. Letting go isn’t about winning or losing. It’s not about pride and it’s not about how you appear, and it’s not obsessing or dwelling on the past. Letting go isn’t blocking memories or thinking sad thoughts, and doesn’t leave emptiness, hurt, or sadness. It’s not about giving in or giving up. Letting go isn’t about loss and it’s not about defeat. To let go is to cherish the memories, but to overcome and move on. It is having an open mind confidence in the future. Letting go is learning and experiencing and growing. To let go is to be thankful for the experiences that made you laugh, made you cry, and made you grow. It’s about all that you have, all that you had, and all that you will soon gain. Letting go is having the courage to accept change, and the strength to keep moving. Letting go is growing up. It is realizing that the heart can sometimes be the most potent remedy. To let go is to open a door, and to clear a path and set yourself free.”

The Broken Charger

So I got my new MacBook battery a couple of weeks ago but then the MagSafe charger went nuts. From how I see it, the charger just cannot cope with the system and application processes – it only charges the battery when it’s sleeping or when the MacBook is idle. Other than that, the charging indication light just shuts off completely. It sucks and I was too annoyed that I managed to put the charger out of its misery. So there it is, my MacBook sitting at the corner, collecting dust, dying on it’s drained battery. Just a few more days and I’ll get you a new MagSafe adaptor, ok?

Rebound & Flying

Hi,

I’m bouncing back over here again after my blog hosting over at snoork.net has been terminated about a month ago. Well, they decided to stop the hosting service altogether so it kinda sucks not just for me, but everyone else too. Nevertheless, it’s been such a great fun working around WordPress themes and plugins – which aren’t available on free WordPress hosting. Now that I’m back at University, I just don’t have the time to exploit my hobbies. Besides, I’m already half-way through my course, there’s no time to slack either. But, there’s one really good news!

Despite my chronic phobia of height, I’ve always wanted to skydive. In fact, it’s always been one of the things on my to-do list since… ever. Like a once-in-a-life-time thing, you know? Yes, I’m going to cross out this one big chunk item off my things to do list real soon. How soon? Let’s say I’m going to take the skydiving course for the whole weekend, this coming week! Heck, I’m living my dream.

Oh my ears are ringing since last night. I went to watch Opeth gig. It was freaking awesome. It was actually the first gig I ever went to since I’m here. Talk about a beginner’s luck, I managed to grab a drum stick thrown by the drummer of Cynic, one of the two opening bands. Then right after the end of Opeth’s performance, the second guitarist of the band gave me his pick that he just used to play. It was awesome. Oh, we were at the very front row. The crowds were awesome and crazy at the back. At the end, I bought myself Opeth’s Europe Tour t-shirt. Oh yeah!
