every day i wake up, and i try, and i strive, to be this
SUPER HAPPY GIRL
you'll never know me
but you may know my name

carrie yeo.
Is a walking contradiction.

Happy-go-lucky yet emotional.
Over-confident yet suffers from inferiority complex.
Love to sing yet afraid of the stage.
Always hopeful about the future but always living in the present.
Adventurous in bigger life experiences like joining Project Superstar but very cowardly in trivial thrills like monkey bars.

Always fighting with herself in the mind like there are 5 Carrie's in there.

Blogging is a way to straighten out thoughts for her.
Blogging is a way for her to leave clues for herself,
so that in ten years time,
Carrie might start to understand herself better....

driving frees my mind
and so i tweet.


over coffee, we agree...
to disagree.


but there's always help
when you are looking.

Happy List (Monday, November 5, 2007 / 9:07 PM)

Sometimes, I enjoy posting my emo posts. Coz when I do that, I get a lot of encouragement from you guys and I get all warm and fuzzy all over again! Thank you, all of you who have left me a tag or a comment or sms or calls to comfort me.

I'm an optimistic person. And I really hope that my blog reflects that too. It's inevitable to have sad and emo moments, but what's more important is... how you get out of your down period.

Have you watched "Sound of music" before? It's my ALL TIME FAVOURITE!!! There's this part which I always loved. There was a thunderstorm night. All the kids ran into Maria's room because they were afraid of thunder. Then Maria told them to think about their favourite things, things that make them smile, and started singing....

Raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens
Bright copper kettles and warm woolen mittens

Brown paper packages tied up with strings

These are a few of my favorite things


Cream colored ponies and crisp apple streudels
Doorbells and sleigh bells and schnitzel with noodles

Wild geese that fly with the moon on their wings

These are a few of my favorite things


Girls in white dresses with blue satin sashes
Snowflakes that stay on my nose and eyelashes

Silver white winters that melt into springs

These are a few of my favorite things


When the dog bites
When the bee stings
When I'm feeling sad
I simply remember my favorite things
And then I don't feel so bad


Don't you think this song is very meaningful?? When you are sad.... stop thinking about your problems for a while. Put it aside... instead... start thinking about your favourite things / happy things. "And then you don't feel so bad~" when you feel better, and you look back at your problem.... it might become a much smaller problem. It will still be a problem, and i'm not saying run away from your problems. I just think.... maybe if you try make yourself happier 1st, then look back at the problem.... you might be less emotional and you are able to look at the prob from a different perspective.... the problems will be easier to solve. =)

Now, I'm going to share with you my happy list....
