Life is tough, especially when you see no hope for the future.  It makes you feel that all your hard work is in vain and couldn't lead to any improvement.

My wish is very simple, a simple and self-sufficient life, but it looks like self-sufficiency is a luxury.  What's going on?

Feeling so depressed that I missed many appointments with my ( Read more... )

Some years ago, a colleague said that the survival of this organisation was a miracle.  Yes, it's true, very true.  Those capable are forced to leave and those incapable stay as they cannot survive in other organisations.

I am neither smart nor hard-working, at least, I will do my best to finish the job.  The TFO, from top to bottom, pushes ( Read more... )

I have no idea of what to throw away, I have to let go of the stuff but the most difficult things to let go is the sentimental things.  I have to re-value what to keep and what to throw.

I am not quite adapting the new environment, I feel that my freedom of travel is constrained by the shuttle timetable.  I have to stop thinking of how inconvenient ( Read more... )

Still surviving...

I hope that, just as the man said, living in a place facing southeast brings prosperities, good luck and good health.

Step by step, throwing things or donating things, keep as less possessions as possible.

A woman told me that she has three 26" luggages of possessions: one luggage for clothes, one luggage books and one luggage for small appliances.  I don't think, for the time being, I can be like her, but set a target first -  15 luggages of possessions.

It is facing SEE, and I always want to have my bedroom facing East.  Why?  Because it can help me to wake up in the morning.

For several decades, I lived in place with no sunshine and no fresh air.  The house was dull and dark, mold on the ceilings and walls, and it is not good not only to physical but also mental health.  It makes people feel ( Read more... )

It is an apartment with good view and lots of sunshine throughout the day.

The first night and the first morning were good.  Quietness, and no woken up by noise.

I have to tune myself, change my life style, spend less and throw more unnecessary things away.

Target: clear two luggages.

Somebody asked me why I always stay at home and not going out.   ( Read more... )

I have bought a few "chicken soup" books written by some 社蓄 from Japan and Taiwan.  The authors do not tell the readers to be positive but tune their attitude in seeing things in a different way.  I hate to hear or read things telling people to be positive.  I don't mean that we should not be positive but such words just enraged the people who are ( Read more... )

I want to rent an apartment nearby my workplace but either it's too expensive or it's not worth the price.

Without any more choice, I have to forego saving and rent an apartment in Coloane.  It is over budget and is what I want to.

My brother said that go to his house to have dinner and in return to teach his son and check his homework.  Well, ( Read more... )

Well!  I want to lay down too.  Life is tough and miserable.

The first step to lay down, to be a minimalist.  Though I have thrown many stuff, there are still a lot of things, which looks there's not much change.  Should I hire somebody, just to throw away my stuff without me knowing?  Otherwise, I don't think I can achieve my goal, to deduce half ( Read more... )
