Once upon a time, a little girl who learnt how to talk earlier than how to walk was, well, learning how to walk. Her difficulty was that, well, her head was a bit over-sized for her little body. (Which affects her centre of gravity, if anyone out there is asking...) Eventually, she learnt to walk tiny steps and not trip over her own two feet. Well, not too many times that is. Once, she did trip. When she picked herself up, her mother, who witnessed the embarassing episode, asked her why she fell down. The little girl replied with a little pout, "Because you never hold my hand."

Lesson 1: It's okay to be slow, just as long as you get there eventually.
Lesson 2: It's okay to fall down, just remember to pick yourself up.
Lesson 3: Don't blame others when you fall down cos your head is big and that's really a personal issue.
Lesson 4: But I guess it's okay to grumble a little, just bear in mind Lesson 2.

Hope this quirky (Zing: qwrky? heh) little thingy cheers you up a little. Exams are around the corner, everyone's feeling the stress. Good luck mugging and may Starbucks never run out of coffee :)

Haha qwrky or quirky, appreciated the little story - it's like those classic little tales that make lots of sense in life.

Happy shopping! :) I think shopping is one of the most tiring activities so kudos to you for 'sacrificing' yourself to get presents for people... I'm sure you secretly enjoy it ;)

Take care take care. - zn :)
