Pimples

Nowadays, the little dots have been hostilely invading my face! They would like to colonize it, won't they?

People says, in this nice weather in New Zealand, you would be able to keep a clean face by getting rid of those annoying acne and some skin problem! I agreeD to it when I first arrived here. But lately, this is totally different story!

Probably it is due to stress? I believe it as nowadays I would just suddenly woke up from nightmare and still depressed over the workloads every time I woke up. Probably it is due to improper diet? I believe it as I always take spicy and strong flavor food to enhance my appetite. Probably it is due to improper skin management? Probably, probably, probably...

Gosh! It brings me so much trauma each time I looked at the mirror...

It's time to really take a serious step in controlling my diet, no more curry! no more fried food...
(or try to minimize, if can't really cut off totally)

And the most important thing, relax! Be happy! Be cheerful! There is NOTHING to stress about!

Smile and laugh, as it is the music to your soul! Cheers!!

No Crown

Once upon a time, there were two princess living in a castle. Princess Samantha and Princess Diana always played and studied together. The two intelligent princess were following the king and the queen to learn a lot of things, from cooking in the kitchen to hunting in the jungle.

One day, the king told the two princess, it's time for both of you to leave the castle and learn to be independent. With lots of blessings, Princess Samantha and Princess Diana left the comfort zone and moved into the unknown...

Without any direction, but with no fear, both princess played and enjoyed their journey all the while. Until, they reached another castle where people were differently dressed up and behaved. Both curious and innocent princess were amazed by the new environment. With the intention of learning something new, Princess Samantha and Princess Diana decided to stay at that castle.

In the castle, men and women were treated equally and a lot of romances were happening here and there. Princess Diana was fiercely courted by the mighty knight of the castle. Here come the love story. Both of them were having sweet time with each other. However, the knight forgot all the training and Princess Diana forgot about the initial intention to move to this castle, which is to learn as much as possible so to contribute to her own kingdom. Love is blind.

One day, a war happened in the castle where the both princess currently stayed. The enemy invaded and took all the valuable things away. People insides the castle were starving. A lot of people were starving and suffering. Seeing the poor condition, the knight and Princess Diana left the castle, there was no future to stay there any longer. Poor Princess Samantha looked at the worse situation, feeling sad...People were leaving one after one, she was getting more and more lonely...Yet, she did not forget about her first intention. She wanted to hang on...to do whatever she could to help.

The war stopped. But the damaged has been done and the re-build was taking time. A lot of people were helping in the re-building process. Some great builders from another kingdom volunteered to help out. At least, Princess Samantha was not alone.

Time's up. Princess Samantha bid goodbye to the beautiful re-built kingdom and back to her own castle. Her hands were rough, her skin was tanned, but she was still the cheerful jolly Princess Samantha. The king and queen gave her a tight welcoming hug! Both King and Queen were so sad seeing their lovely daughter's rough hand and rugged hair yet so proud of her. They passed her the crown and putting it on her cut-short hair.

Princess Samantha politely rejected, "No crown, we work as a team!"

This should be the way, everybody, no matter who you are, should pour in your efforts, togetherness, equality, co-operation. Glory is meant to be shared!
