Eyes Big!

In chinese, the term that your "eyes are big" doesnt necessarily mean that u have large beautiful eyes.
I mean it could mean that, but its also a saying, maybe a proverb...im not sure.

In chiew chow, ino it to mean that u are some what greedy. Always wanting more and that u are never satisfied with what u have.
Sometimes it can be a positive thing tho, like u see what other ppl have experienced - like when they have travelled and u want to experience it too. But u work hard so that u can go and travel like other's have. Having "eyes big" can also mean that u are determined to get what u want, u're motivated to succeed! That u are highly observant and nothing can pass u without u noticing.

Its a negative attribute when u become fickle and u chop and change between decisions without a second thought on what the consequences might be. Its a wretched situation to be in if ur the type of person who regrets their actions. Especially when ur chasing after money...what i mean by that, is that ur decisions are made soley based on money, or 'how much you will get out of it?' - that type of thing.

I've done somethings due to the "eyes being too big". But i dont regret them. I usually get overwhelmed by what lies ahead of me and thats when i want to experience more (part greediness, part learning curve). I'm getting that itchy feeling of travelling. My best friend sent a postcard from London right before she left to go to Vienna. Although the weather has been morbid in London and she is freezing her butt off going from one place to the next...she is having a blast!

I'm happy for her, but i want my blast too.

So, i shall be stringent with my money and save save save! So that i can go on my European Holiday! Then i can go on my Asian Holiday - after this whole bird flu finishes. Then...i can go everywhere else i have missed out on! hahahaha...my eyes are getting sore from my lids being stretched out way too far!
