Life in Plymouth - Barbican, Plymouth Hoe

She followed the University trip to Barbican or Plymouth Hoe yesterday. She was offered 2 pounds for an hour boat cruise, it seemed a great deal. All of them walked from University Reception to the site, roughly 30minutes.

The first noticeable landmark is National Marine Square, she guess is a place for maritime army. A lot of boats as well.

The weather was freaking cold, especially you were on the boat. The boat able to accommodate approximately 30-40 of them. A lot of photography lovers like her snapping the photos continually.

In spite of distinctive architecture, water-sports and water vehicles, she got distracted by the long hour ride. She got dizzy due to the shaking cruise. She took lots of photos, but most of them turned out bad due to the weather. It will be best to shoot during summer.

She feels sorry because she is not interested in history, but you can go through these 2 websites if you want to know more.

She enjoyed to walk on the roadside, and snapshot anything she likes. She loves to observe what other people doing, and of course enjoying the cold weather.

The best is there is a greenish field beside the Smeatons Tower, you can lay on the field and viewing the beautiful sea. Apart from that, there is a mini golf field for family. It will be a good place for friends and family.

Ok, enough talking, enjoyed the photos.

Recently learnt about emotion triangle, it said human tends to suppress core emotion, and manifested as either a defense or inhibitory emotion. The emotion that we tends to inhibit are shame, guilt ... There are fear and inferiority that governs my heart - I have to learn to address and admit my feelings better, and make a decision to communicate or set a boundary. It is hard to actually do so, and I know after I have done it - I can sense my guilt and shame. It is like a vicious cycle.  I have to make a promise to myself - be mindful, be steady and let my head clears. Don't react much...But at the same times I am glad that I did say something. I did express myself. I did feeling less intense. I treated it as a progress.  Anyway I felt sorry of the people that I hurt - when I am still a human with sin...

Full stop is not a Stop

My study has come to the full stop. After the submission of my final year project, I thought I will be delighted, yet I wasn't. I was apathetic. No more motivation to complete it, I already forgotten my achievement goals, I have given up. During the phase of life, I felt Life is just ain't about perfection. Imperfection in life is the essence of our growth. In order to grow, old proverb saying "no pain, no gain", it indeed applies to everyone of us. Being through thick and thin, sweat and tears, I started to realise that adaptation to sudden change is incredibly important. For instance, we have a goal to get a First Class Honour in our degree program, but our result speaks no to us. Is it show that we are stupid? Nope, it only tells us that it is a piece of paper which might granted us to obtain better job, yet which class you get is not the guarantee to get a better job. The end of college life, is the start of _______ life. People will fill in the blank themselves....
