Some smiles are genuine
                lets talk about how perfection destroys you!

Harlows.
Just got home from dinner with Alvin and his family at Jogoya, which has impressively added new items to their already whoa menu since the last time i went on Valentine’s. Anyway its been a terribly tiring long day after meeting up with the photographer to touch up on the pictures because once again im using a photoshop version 7.0 wh ich is ancient and credits to him for all the editing! My skills have not reached that level,and trust me if i were to use Photoshop i would have “Liquified” my whole face and probably everything else, enlarge my eyes,sharpen my nose and so on. Once again, i’m only good with brightness and contrast (who the hell doesn’t know that laaa!) and thats about it.

Macbook Pro is the bomb, i spent hours dining at Delifrance earlier today with Fendy,before heading to check out my flight and hotel reservation for Bangkok with my mum. It was a blardy chaotic day,but oh well when i came home and viewed my blog, fuuyoh wtf new pictures made my hits went triple wtf. Hey don’t get me wrong,its just rather odd because i wasn’t online to constantly leave footprints on other blogs. Thank you for the compliments, and i have so much to do with such little time. Gonna be renewing the boyfriend’s passport tomorrow morning, getting his new gaming PC oh finally wtf and then to watch  Maid of Honour premier (second time?) which im hoping to bump into a couple of bloggers there tomorrow. can’t wait!

Since most people damn layan my inspirational talks wtf, I was a failure. I failed myself, and everyone around me but thank god it hasn’t reached the beyond repair stage. It may seem rather easy, people will go that bitch will always be bitching, and lets just sit back and watch how she fails over and over again. But hey,god is watching over each and everyone of us. The growing up phase of a teenager is such a natural thing,that its a norm and a common problem. You can still afford to screw up your teenage years and be one hell of a successful grown up,thats the unspoken truth.

 We speak as we listen,but have you really been listening?

I’ve yet to meet an absolute perfectionist whose life is filled with inner peace. Have you?
The need for perfection and the desire for inner tranquility conflict with each other,it collides. Whenever one is attached to having something a certain way (that sounds familiar!) better than it already is, one almost by definition is engaged in a losing battle. Rather than being content and grateful for what we have in life, we are focused on what’s wrong with something and our need to fix it. When we are zeroed in on what’s wrong, it implies that we are dissatisfied,discontent (omg even more familiar wtf)

Whether its related to ourselves, a disorganized closet (say shopaholics?) an imperfect accomplishment, or someone else’s imperfections. The very act of focusing on imperfection pulls us away from our goal of being kind and gentle. This strategy has nothing to do with ceasing to do your best but with being overly attached and focused on whats wrong with life.Learn to catch yourself when you fall into your habits (tho its easier said than done!) of insisting that things should be other than they are all the time. In the absence of your judgement,everything would be fine. As you begin to eliminate your need for perfection in all aspects of life, you’ll begin to discover the perfection in life itself.

Maybe it worked for me,looking at things from a different perspective and perfectionists can be very annoying at times,so fucking seriously. Learn to accept things as it comes,i hope all’s well with you. I’m going to bed now,omg why am i so semangat double posting wtf.

With much love,
i am ellie smelly.
