Shooting Star

Shooting star always make a spectacular at a lonely night.. But sad to say that i never had a chance to see it..

Until one day, when facebook had been flooded with the news about the Geminids meteor shower at midnight of 13 December..

I went out with my friends at around 12am and waited until 1am.. but a shooting star was nowhere to be seen..

We had a guess we could only watch it by a seaside or on a hills..

The next day, i learnt from some friends that they got a chance to watch the meteor shower at USMKK field.. it's around 2.30am.. and i missed it.. i seriously wanted to witness the magnificent scene of meteor shower with my true eyes..

Second chance came to me when i was doing my assignment at the second night..

It was around 1.30am... my friend told me there was a continuation of the meteor shower that night..

I went out with my roommates for the meteors..
It was a starry night.. the Polaris was hanging just above our heads..
Just after a few minutes we stepped out from our hostel, one of my roommates saw a streak of shooting star flying across the sky, behind my back.. and i missed it again..

We gazed the stars near the field as it was away from the glow of lights..
We enjoyed the time waiting as we could hear people screaming from everywhere..
"They must have saw one," and we would look at the sky attentively, spotting for a shooting star..
After 2 hours of waiting, my roommate had collected 12 shooting stars.. yet i did not spot a single one..
I can actually saw some dim streaks of light flying across the sky, but i was not sure if they were meteors or were just my illusion..
I won't give up easily.. i would not go back unless i saw one..

Finally, a bright, long streak of light flied across the dark, lonely sky.. i was sure it was a shooting star, not my illusion..
There is a saying that your wish will come true if you make a wish upon the shooting star..
But when you really see one with your true eyes, your first response will be shouting, followed by jumping with joy.. when you are going to make a wish, the shooting star has disappeared.. and i was just one of the example of it..

That was the first and only shooting star i've ever seen in my life..
Its glamour disappeared in just a few seconds.. and that's the reason why it was so precious..
I shall engrave this momentary and beautiful image in my heart forever..

At different places, under the same sky, did you see the same shooting star as i did? 

Thank you

You are the reason for me to believe that studying in USMKK is worthwhile..

Before I entered university, you gave me advice and encouragement..

When I was in my first year, you guided me along in this unfamiliar environment and contributed your own hard work to me selflessly..

And now I am in my second year, you are no longer just a senior to me..

You are a good listener who is willing to listen to me and enlighten me..

You are a good friend who is willing to share your happiness and sadness with me..

And you are even a good sister who is willing to sacrifice your time to care for and solicitude for me...

Your words did inspire me and lead me through  darkness..

Your company and guidance add colour to my university life...

Thank you very much, my best senior..

It's time to change

"Why do you want to cut your hair short?"

"Do you miss your long hair?"

"Do you regret for cutting your hair?"

These are the questions popped by people when they first saw my new hairstyle..

I really don't know how to answer their questions as these questions never crossed my mind before..

After being asked for so many times, i finally came out with a best answer- because it saves time and money..

Keeping long hair for so many years, i was quite tired with spending much time on washing my hair, doing hair treatment, styling hair every morning, and so on..

I feel so relieved and refreshed with my no more fluffy short hair.. 

Especially when my bathing time has been cut down, and i don't even have to comb my hair or do any hair treatment (just an excuse for being lazy)..

It does save time and money isn't it?

It's time to have a change, change into a new look and a better person..

At least i did muster the courage to change it..

Thanks for the compliments from my friends..

I love my short hair and i have no regrets for cutting it..
