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.

当下 (Wednesday, January 23, 2008 / 10:17 AM)

当下。

就是说现在。此时此刻。
我觉得我是个开心的人,因为我懂得享受“当下”。

心灵教师胡因梦说过,我们人总是喜欢活在过去和未来。

人常常挂念着过去。“还是求学时期,比较开心”,“为什么你变了,跟以前不一样了?”,“翻着旧照片,觉得以前的自己比较漂亮”等等,你听过吧?那是不肯放下过去,不肯move on的人。过去是一种回忆。It defines who you are. 可是,回忆总是美。我们人喜欢美化过去。做人要开心的话,不能一直拿现在和过去比较。就好像,如果你现在在谈恋爱,不应该拿ex-bf和current bf比较一样。很简单的道理。过去可以是一种参考,但它不应该变成一种束缚,生活模式。因为人生是一直在改变的。以前能让你开心的事,现在不一定能让你开心啊!

也有一些人,总是在为未来担忧。“我现在的工作能让我达成梦想吗?”,“10年后,我会是一个怎样的人呢?”,“我要在40岁以前变百万富翁”。梦想本应是每个人的原动力,可是不应该成为你的压力。有些人不擅长变通,死守一个梦想,每天都担心自己会不会成功。这样的人过于认真,而没法享受到失败的苦涩香味。他们会把失败想得太严重。

一个人一直在挂念过去,担心未来,眼前的美丽风景又怎么能看得见呢?假设你在草原上走着,你心里在担心着这条路走对了吗?你眼睛看的是尽头。那,你就看不见你脚底下的蒲公英了。

大家,现在这一刻,不要再忽视“当下”了。不但是开心的时候,人生的“喜怒哀乐”都要尽情地去感受,享尽人生百态。

Life is beautiful.
