une aventure sentimentale: Acceptance
http://uneaventuresentimentale.blogspot.com/2012/09/acceptance.html
A very enlightening excerpt from '"Have a Little Faith" written by Mitch Albom:. When we spoke a few weeks ago, I asked you what you thought about your parents. Do you remember? Sort of, I say. I asked if you felt they were perfect, or if they needed improvement. And do you remember what you said? You said they weren’t perfect, but. He nods at me. Go ahead. Speak. But they don’t need improvement? But they don’t need improvement, he says. This is very insightful. Do you know why? No, I say. That the striv...

une aventure sentimentale: June 2007

Music of the 16th century. What does the music of the 16th century sounds like? That is exactly what I wanted to find out for myself when I attended the performance by a vocal chamber ensemble. You wonder how that term comes about, but indeed, the nature of the performance includes a chamber setting and purely vocals. the soprano, alto, tenor and bass. So what does 16th century chansons sounds like? Words of love and life filled the lyrics and probably that's how joie de vivre comes about for the French.

une aventure sentimentale: Disappointed
http://uneaventuresentimentale.blogspot.com/2012/09/disappointed.html
It was difficult to accept disappointments. It struck me hard, physically and mentally, pushing me to the verge of giving up. It was not the first time I had to deal with disappointment but it was harder this time. Time and time again, I managed to pull through and gained conviction that a better opportunity is just ahead. This time, I had a harder time to convince myself that something better awaits. I felt deeply discouraged. Life just gets harder, ain't it? Posted by Jerylene at 11:06. For Tech Help w...

une aventure sentimentale: September 2007
http://uneaventuresentimentale.blogspot.com/2007_09_01_archive.html
Back to the roots. The Mid-Autumn Festival is one of the longest-lasting Chinese traditions still being celebrated today. You wonder why someone would even blog about it, but here are my two cents' worth on this traditional festivity. Take a walk along Clarke Quay recently and you'll find yourself surrounded by lights, music and people. And that is precisely the spirit of this Chinese tradition - a fun-filled gathering of people. You may well also read about the legend as you go along. The traditional ch...

une aventure sentimentale: May 2007
http://uneaventuresentimentale.blogspot.com/2007_05_01_archive.html
One of those days when my lazybones work up and you just wish someone can put the right words in your mouth. c'est vrai? C'est possible. toujours une rêveuse. You Are a Dreaming Soul. Your vivid emotions and imagination takes you away from this world. So much so that you tend to live in your head most of the time. You have great dreams and ambitions that could be the envy of all. But for you, following through with your dreams is a bit difficult. You are charming, endearing, and people tend to love you.

une aventure sentimentale: start all over again
http://uneaventuresentimentale.blogspot.com/2012/04/start-all-over-again.html
Start all over again. Start all over again. It is hard to imagine how tough it is to make some decisions. Strangely, the choice can also become very clear. I was stuck in a what-I-thought-to-be dilemma of making a decision. "Again? My mind went through rounds of thinking, each time emerging a different opinion of which option I should take. There is no win-win situation. There are definitely risks in both ways. I took time to calm my mind and my heart down to think soundly. What do I really want? Posted ...

une aventure sentimentale: 26
http://uneaventuresentimentale.blogspot.com/2012/03/26.html
More than a month into Chapter 26 and almost everyday has been a revelation. I am glad that I did and I am now ready to move forward. To a new challenge, new venture and new opportunity. Life does look very promising and positive in this light. In this year, I do hope that I become a better person in many ways:. Adopt a healthier lifestyle (to start and keep a regular fitness routine - be it running, pilates or yoga). Keep an open mind in what I do and be a little more adventurous. New Year. New Start.

une aventure sentimentale: New Year. New Start.
http://uneaventuresentimentale.blogspot.com/2012/01/new-year-new-start.html
New Year. New Start. I started the new year with a gut feel. It was one or probably the most unsettling time I had experienced but with this dilemma hitting me thrice in the span of a year and obvious tell-tales that leaving is probably not a bad idea. I had to take a bet and I finally did it based on a gut feel. The pent-up frustration residing inside kept spilling out uncontrollably. I felt mentally and emotionally spent at some point. I couldn't really understand what was really upsetting me.

une aventure sentimentale: Waiting
http://uneaventuresentimentale.blogspot.com/2012/09/waiting.html
The wait has been long. All seems so silent yet chaotic at the same time. Often, I need to pull myself out of the frustration and resentment that have been building up quietly within. They could engulf my mind and emotions so abruptly and entirely that the level-headed side of me seems unreal. I read my previous post penned in April and uncannily, I am back to the same circumstance and dilemma that I was in four months ago. Again, I had the same evaluation of the choice I had to make this time.
