It's the little things that count, that matter. Most of the time made into a big deal when clearly it's not.
Even if it's a comment like "Are you sure it's this way?". A small comment as simple as that can be chopped and changed into a big issue such "You don't trust me?" or "Are you giving me the benefit of the doubt?"
It's the little things that matter. Simply returning a phone call or picking up your phone, messaging or calling to say goodnight and good morning.
Why is it that the simplest things in life are hard to find, and sometimes hard to do? They're so small yet so significant because at the end of the day, it's all the little things that add up.

Another season, another start.
Five days into Autumn. Uni - Single major in Finance, CS, work, youth group.
The heatwave continues to linger as the three months of Summer (which felt more like three days) has come to an end once again. I finally made the decision of dropping Accounting before uni started and honestly, I am glad that I did. I did not enjoy it one bit since starting uni so and felt like I wouldn't enjoy it later on either if I were to get into that industry. The single finance major has been good to me so far with my Marketing electives on the side! Although I have to do presentations and group assignments, it's actually more interesting than Accounting. At least there is some sort of involvement and practical learning rather than just theory.
Seems like this semester might be a bit tough with all those oral presentations, group assignments and new topics such as Microeconomics and Sales Management. Heck, I haven't done units like these since first year.. which was two years ago! Feel a bit lost but I'm sure that if I stick with it and have everything under control this semester, I will be fine with my feet firm on the ground. I'm a little bit nervous, you know, the occasional butterflies but what the hey. It's all a learning process and I want to learn - really get out what you put in.
CS. Chinese Society, still a couple of internal conflicts here and there but meh. I am going to stick with it for the final year. I know that it's stressful and a lot of work on top of everything else but I don't want to quit now. I've come too far to just bail, especially when the club is starting to get through this rough patch and I want to improve my people's skills this year too. Just get out there, be more happy, and be more confident when meeting new people!
Work - I was rostered on for ten shifts next fortnight but it got cut down to eight which is sort of ok.. but still. I only want to do saturrday, sunday and monday nights hey, because it's just too much for me. I need time to fit in my study and I don't think the boyfriend is happy about it either. Don't want to come home tired and then slack off when I'm supposed to be studying. I've tried it and it doesn't work, so must talk to the workmate on sunday.
Youth group. Loving it! It's definitely a blessing and it feels more like a break during the week and there's not much stress involved in it. Lots of planning and preparation but I've got other team members to back me up whenever I need help! Such a shame that I can't go to the fundraiser tomorrow night/tonight, very devo.
Sad note: My best friend is in China for three months! It's going to be tough not being able to catch up and d&m with her. There's so much that I know that I'll be needing to tell her too :( but there's email, skype and also facebook since she's got mad hacking skills! And at least she will be having fun and learning lots over there! I miss her so much already, surprised that I haven't cried yet and didn't cry at the airport seeing her off. :(
Short update for now, but going to blog another post of things that have been on my mind lately.
Shall see you in a tick!
