男人女人

2011-12-06T22:39:00.002+08:00

女人开始试探着管男人，先从生活小事开始..

支使男人拿尿盆倒尿罐，男人全干了..

家里的庄稼女人说什么，男人就做什么..

女人说：「跟谁走近点，跟谁走远点.. 」男人全都听女人的。

男人正跟人闲聊，女人一声「喊」！

男人就像被牵了鼻子的牛，乖乖就回去了。

男人正跟人喝酒，女人上前只扯一下耳朵，就被拽进家！

有人说男人，你的女人三天不打，就上房揭瓦。

你还算是个男人吗？

怎能让女人管得没有一点男人的气概？

若是我的女人，非扇她两鞋底不可！

男人不急不慌地说：「把你的女人叫来，我也舍得扇她两鞋底子。」

那人回答：「神经病！我的女人怎么由你来扇？！

你这没种的男人，怕老婆！简直丢男人的脸！」

村里人有大小事商量，男人一出场，人们就说：「这商量大事你也做不了主，还是把你家女人请来吧！」

男人还真的把女人给叫来了。

女人管得住男人，觉得很得意。

直到..

有一天.. ..

女人在男人耳边说起了家婆的不是..

男人红了眼，一声「吼！」说：「想知道我为什么舍不得打你吗？

就算朋友怎样羞辱我，我都对你百依百顺吗？！」

女人呆了，瞪着男人..

男人红着双眼看着女人说：「因为我娘.. ..」

我娘没一日好过，因为我爹的脾性暴躁..

稍有不顺心，张口就骂、举手就打！

我爹打断过胳膊粗的棍子，打散过椅子..

我娘为了我们几个孩子，竟熬了一辈子！

每次见娘挨打，我都发誓，我娶了女人决不会让她少一根头发！

不会让她受一点委屈！

男人咽着眼泪，看着女人说：「不是我怕你，是我忘不了我娘说的话，她说：

女人是被男人疼的，不是被男人打的！」

女人听了，眼泪往下掉..

她没想到眼前的男人胸怀竟这样宽广。

什么也没说，紧紧地抱着男人..

从此..

男人在外再同人神吹海喝，

女人不喊，也不再拽耳朵，

有时还会端碗水递给男人。

有人问男人，你是怎么调教你的女人的？

一夜之间变得体贴善良。

男人却一本正经地说：

「打出来的女人嘴服，疼出来的女人心服。」

Two days ago, I did my first self-reformat of desktop. sweats* i really didn't dare to perform it alone. But no choice...

Lucky it wasn't a difficult task. Equipped with my Vista CD provided with the desktop purchase 3+ years ago, and the website below, I succeeded in the reformat!

2011-02-15T14:27:00.002+08:00

the more I think of it, the more perplexed I feel. and angry. and I can't concentrate at work.. on CNY eve, I approached my manager and asked if I could follow out for lunch since the coffee shop isn't open. he said use your own discretion, if there's nothing to do u can leave after 1pm. I was overjoyed and thanked him. coz I simply had nothing to do that day.. so I left at 1pm lor. ystd he came back to me and another colleague. said we give him trouble by leaving at 1pm on CNY eve. wth la! he was the one who said can leave after 1pm if got no work. by common sense if u don't go for lunch u can't expect a person to stay in office for too long after lunch hr right?! another manager told off to my manager that we left at 1pm.. and so he came back to say we should have left at 2-3pm... wth. as if he really meant that when he said can leave after 1pm. coz if he did he would say can leave after 2pm, or any later time instead. stupid. he just wants to cover his big ass, and push the blame to us and say we give him trouble when he is the one who approved initially. very smart huh, but sorry you can't gain ur subordinate's trust and support this way if u don't help ur subordinates. it's really stupid, coz instead of telling us off, he could simply settle and tell us to file for half day to cover our own ass. why has it gotta be the subordinate to suggest how to resolve the situation huh huh?! and this manager of mine went on to give example of how other sales colleagues stayed till 2-3pm. well, I told him 2 staff would have left at 1pm too, if not being told off by the CEO for playing pool during lunch (like wth also lor). and this manager ignored the statement and said that 'but they left at 2+pm so there's still reason to cover' and so they wont have to take that half day. this is nonsense. totally nonsense. argh!!

20 Ways to Manage Your Boss

2011-01-16T13:45:00.002+08:00

i like this article =)

It’s performance-review season in Officeville and that means most of us are going to be singing “me me me” louder than any other time of the year.

Is my boss going to give ME a good review? He’d better give ME a raise — I deserve it! Ooh, do you think he’ll give ME a bonus, too?!

Charming though your little “me” chorus is, the truth is, it’s not going to get you very far unless you start thinking about your boss and how best to manage your relationship with him or her. When we think of managing, we tend to only think of managing subordinates but the truth is, you have to manage in every direction: up, down and side to side.

“Managing up can sound like how to manipulate your boss but that’s not really it all,” said Marie McIntyre, a career coach and author of “Secrets to Winning at Office Politics.” “Whenever you’re trying to build a positive, productive relationship with anybody, you have to look at it from their point of view. And that’s particularly true with your boss because your boss does control a lot of things that affect you at work,” she said.

“Even if you work for an idiot, you have to figure out how to manage working with an idiot,” she added. “As long as that person is your boss, they’re going to affect your life and you have to figure out how to work with them.”

So, how exactly do you “manage” your boss? We asked the pros and they offered up these 20 Ways to Manage Your Boss:

1. Accept the fact that your boss is your boss. It’s amazing how many times people say — I’m not going to tell him that, he’s a jerk. I don’t have to be nice to him — I just have to clock in, do my job and clock out. Wrong! Your boss not only controls if you get a raise this year, if you get promoted or if you get a pink slip but he or she also has great influence on the opinions of his boss and other managers.

If you’re jerky or disrespectful to the boss, it doesn’t hurt anyone but you. So whether you think he’s an idiot or if you have no respect for him doesn’t matter at all. You need to figure out how to manage your relationship with the boss in order to get what you want.

2. Prove that you’re trustworthy. Your boss can’t be everywhere at all times so you’re one of his eyes and ears on the ground. So, if you have information about something good, share it. Even if it’s bad news, you have to have the courage to tell it to your boss so you can put out the fire.

“If you’re sitting on a ticking time bomb, things will happen if you’re afraid to tell the boss the bad news,” said Dion Lim, president of job-search site Simply Hired. “Remember, you and your boss are in this together.”

3. Don’t complain about your boss with others. One easy way to break that trust with your boss is to have her find out that you’ve been complaining about him to other people. So, resist the urge to give in to office complaining. Remember: You never know when that person you think is on your side commiserating about the boss will turn on you. Keep your eye on the big picture and keep your trap shut.

4. Don’t whine! You hate it when your colleagues whine, you hate it when your spouse or kids whine, so what do you think the boss’s response will be if you’re always coming into his office complaining? You guessed it — Hate it! It’s completely fair to bring a complaint or issue to the boss — just make sure you practice how you say it. Keep it professional and check your emotions at the door. If you want to scream, cry or punch something after work — that’s totally your prerogative. When you’re at the office, zip it.

5. Look at the situation from your boss’s point of view. Sitting in your cubicle, it’s easy to sing the me, me, me song, and stew in what you are and are not getting, who’s getting more, etc. But that’s not going to get you anywhere with the boss. Before you approach your boss, try to think about what she’s going through — is it budget time? Did she just have to lay off 20 people? Is she getting pressure to improve the numbers from her boss?

“I call it ‘taking the emotional temperature of the boss,’” said Peggy Klaus, a career coach and author of the book, “Brag! The Art of Tooting Your Own Horn Without Blowing It.” “Think about what ticks him off. What pleases him … Do you know when the best time to approach him is? Is he a bear before his morning coffee? Or, is he cranky after a board meeting?!”

“Timing is everything,” said Avi Karnani and Dave Clarke of GetRaised.com, a site that helps employees ask — and get — a raise. “A simple inquiry regarding, say, your interest in working from home one day a week shouldn't be delivered on a Friday evening at the end of the quarter - it's almost a guarantee that your boss will be stressed … That’ll do more damage than good,” Karnani explained. “However, if you were to time your inquiry to when you know your boss will be most receptive (maybe that's on Tuesdays after the lunch hour), you'll probably have more success.”

6. Treat your boss with respect. Regardless of how you feel about your boss, he’s is in a higher position than you and you and you need to treat him with respect.

“This doesn’t mean you have to respect your boss,” McIntyre explained. “You may not actually respect your boss as a person but you need to be respectful of the boss,” she said.

If you don’t, he or she will pick up on it, and respond accordingly. Think about that little punk at the deli counter yesterday. Then ask yourself: If you were the boss, would you promote someone who didn’t respect you?

7. Try to understand your boss’s management style. Every boss has a different style. Some are outgoing and like to chat, some are more quiet. Some like you to keep them in the loop on every little thing. Some don’t want to be bogged down with that, but would rather that you just deliver occasional status reports of the projects you’re working on. Some may not be big on showering you with praise every time you do something good. It also includes how they prefer to interact — phone, email or face-to-face. Also, what time of day is good or bad for them. Whatever it is, find out what your boss’s management style is — and make sure all of your communications with them fit with that style.

This is particularly important when you get a new manager, McIntyre said. “Call them on the phone, send them an email. Find out what they like,” she said. Plus, don’t be afraid to check with colleagues about their experience with the boss and her style. Every little bit helps.

8. Try to make your boss look good! You may have learned to keep your lip zipped when it comes to the boss but you have to go beyond not creating conflict with the boss. You also have to do things that make her look good. Not only will it be better for the team — it will be better for your career.

9. Try to make your boss’s job easier. Yeah, yeah. You’re exhausted. If you think your job is stressful, think about how much more the boss has to deal with! Get over yourself and do things to try to make the boss’s job easier.

“We're not suggesting you become the office kiss-up, but helping your boss out every now and then with day-to-day stuff can go a long way,” Karnani said. “Are you tech-savvy? Does your boss not have the faintest idea on how to operate his iPod? Offer to be his go-to for all things tech. Bottom line, if you make your bosses life easier, chances are, he/she will return the favor when you need it.”

10. Keep your boss in the loop. No matter how busy you are, take the time to keep your boss in the loop. Per No. 7, find out what her style is — how she likes to be notified of what’s going on — and how often. One of the worst things for a boss is to have a fellow manager be talking about someone on her team, and not having any idea what the guy’s talking about or, worse, not knowing about a ticking time bomb. Give your boss regular updates — but make sure you keep them brief. Karnani suggests maybe making a list on Sunday night of what you plan to do in the coming week and send it to your boss.

11. Express some sincere appreciation for your boss. “It never hurts to express some sincere appreciation to your boss,” McIntyre said. They hear a lot about what’s wrong — but don’t often hear praise or appreciation. And who doesn’t like to be appreciated? You’d be amazed about how far a little appreciation will go.

“We’re not talking about sucking up! But things you generally appreciate about your boss — Even a boss you don’t love,” she said.

Surely, you can find at least one nice, sincere thing to say — even if you don't really like the guy. It's not sucking up, it's called "career advancement."

12. Don’t feel entitled. Yes, we all know you work hard and deserve a raise. But walking into the boss’s office with a sense of entitlement is a surefire way to be shuffled out of there in a hurry. “Stay away from broad, general statements like ‘Doesn’t everybody get a promotion after a year?’” Klaus said. Even if everybody does get a raise after a year, you want to prove to the boss that you’ve earned it. Go in there with a list of accomplishments — not a list of entitlements.
13. Offer solutions — not just problems. Do you have any idea how many people on a daily basis, walk in to the boss’s office and dump their purse on his desk? Instead of dropping an open-ended problem, briefly tell him what the problem is and then offer up a couple of solutions. It’s a lot easier to answer a multiple-choice question than an open-ended question. Plus, it will brand you as a “solutions” person — one of the most valuable types of employees to the boss. Of course, be prepared that he may choose e) none of the above, and provide a different solution. Remember, he’s the boss — that’s his prerogative. What’s important is that he will appreciate your effort to solve the problem, not just dump it on his desk.

“I love it! I always love when someone comes to me with a solution,” Klaus said. “That takes you out of the whining category!”

14. Do your homework! Before you go into the boss’s office with a request for a raise or new project, do your homework. Find out what your company’s policies are, what the company’s going through right now (financially and organizationally) and what’s going on in your industry in general, suggests Stacey Carroll, a human-resources expert for PayScale.com and an adjunct professor at Western Washington University.

Then, prepare a list of key bullet points before you talk to the boss and do a practice run — either alone in your office or before a spouse or friend outside the office. “I call it getting it off your tongue,” Klaus said. That will help make sure you’re brief and not tongue-tied. Plus, try to anticipate the boss’s response — and have some answers ready.

15. Have a clear objective. Sometimes you think you know what you’re asking for just because you’ve gone over and over it in your head. But if you don’t do your prep, you may go in there and do the verbal equivalent of falling down a flight of stairs.

Know what your objective is, get in, get out — and let the boss move on.

16. Defer to your boss. Lim said one of the best pieces of advice he ever got from a mentor was to defer to your boss. You go in there with clear objectives and say “This is what we’re planning to talk about today.” Then, defer to your boss and say, “Is there something else that you actually feel is more urgent for us to talk about?”

“That lets him know that you’re well prepared but you’re ready to put it in your back pocket if something is more urgent,” he said.

17. Don’t be afraid to ask for help. Too often, people see asking for help as a weakness and want to be that “Yes” Man to their boss. Remember that your boss’s objective is to get the task done, so don’t be the “Yes” Man, be the “Get it Done” Man — even if it means asking for help. Your boss won’t think less of you for asking, they’ll think more of you — because you quickly assessed what it would take to get the job done — and got it done.

18. Toot your own horn. A lot of people treat bosses and colleagues like a date — they don’t want to be seen as the obnoxious person who brags too much. Knock it off! No one says you have to be obnoxious but if you don’t tell the boss your accomplishments, who will? Remember, you are thinking about one employee — you — and your boss has a whole lot of employees to think about. So periodically make sure you let her know about your accomplishments and any great feedback you’ve received.

“The boss often really doesn’t know what you’re doing,” Klaus explained. “You absolutely have to toot your own horn. And you can do it artfully and gracefully,” she said.

19. Ask your boss for honest feedback. So, you got a bad review or you didn’t get that raise. A lot of people will take that as a cue to complain about the boss, or write it off as him not understanding or appreciating you. So how’s that working out for you? It probably strained your relationship. A better bet, Carroll said, is to ask your boss for honest feedback. There’s probably a lot more going on than he didn’t understand or appreciate you. Maybe there’s a budget freeze or maybe there are restructuring plans. Find out what the issues are — and then find out if there’s anything else you can do to improve your chances of getting that raise, getting that promotion — whatever it is you’re asking him for.

20. Don’t try to be friends with your boss. Sorry, we’re grown-ups now and you have to accept that you can be friendly with your boss but anyone who’s conducting your performance review or deciding if you get a raise cannot be your friend. Being too close with the boss could not only strain relations with your peers, but stir rumors of favoritism., McIntyre cautioned. So that not only creates problems for you, but problems for your boss — which is what this whole list is aimed at avoiding.

So, does that mean forget the holiday gift?

No way!, the pros say. A modest gift is a sign of your appreciation and, like anyone else, bosses like to be appreciated.

One way to keep it from getting weird is to go in with several co-workers on a gift for the boss. That’s a win-win-win: Your boss feels appreciated, you look good and now you’ve also made your co-workers look good.

I saw my 学妹 boarding the train at Redhill Mrt.

it's her first year and she is wearing the name temp name tag despite alrd on the way home. despite how smartly dressed, the skirt will still crease and fold upwards due to the bag that hangs above. and it's still the bright yellow and seemingly same material, which will fade over the years to a translucent blouse by the start of First 3 Months of the next stage in life.

apparently it's one of the few schools which still requires students to wear white shoes to school. but don't worry girl, ur shoes will bleach to a colorful one by the end of sch year, just as how ur skirt will find it's way to grow short at a faster time than it take for ur legs to grow long. soon, you'll understand and experience it for yourself..

then I smiled :)

it's been a long while since then. I wonder if there were also people looking at us then, smiling to themselves, and thinking how long it had been for themselves..

Lie Detector Robot

2011-01-09T20:57:00.001+08:00

John was a salesman's delight when it came to any kind of unusual gimmicks. His wife, Marsha, had long ago given up trying to get him to change.

One day John came home with another one of his unusual purchases. It was a robot that John claimed was actually a lie detector.

At 5:30 that afternoon, his 11 year old son, Tommy, returned home from school two hours late.
"Where have you been? Why are you over 2 hours late getting home?" asked John.

"Several of us went to the library to work on an extra credit project," said Tommy.

The robot walked around the table and slapped Tommy, knocking him completely out of his chair.

"Son," said John, "this robot is a lie detector, now tell us where you really were after school."

"We went to Bobby's house and watched a movie." said Tommy. "What did you watch?" asked his mother.

"The Ten Commandments." answered Tommy.

The robot went around to Tommy and once again slapped him, knocking him off his chair.

With his lip quivering, Tommy got up, sat down and said, "I am sorry I lied. We really watched a tape called Sex Queen."

"I am ashamed of you son," said John. When I was your age, I never lied to my parents."

The robot walked around to John and delivered a whack that knocked him out of his chair.

Marsha doubled over in laughter, almost in tears, and said, "Boy, did you ever ask for that one! You can't be too mad with Tommy. After all, he is your son!"

The robot walked around to Marsha and knocked her out of her chair.

its time to review year 2010 and resolute for 2011 as the year strays to a close.

Review

The first quarter of this year had been a happy period for me. work had been still very much well going, and my trips to langkawi and perhentian was mixed with two opposing and unforgettable experience to me.. Second quarter was when the hole started to make its presence, but at least there were still patches of entertainment to fill it. as for the third quarter, i could only remember closing the door on a counterpart, and my taiwan trip with pear. sometimes i wonder, is my life too exciting, or is it actually rather still, and only seems colourful due to the roller coaster rides it had been through. eventually, the roller coaster ride will slow, and the adreline rush will die down. eventually, you will need to find a place to rest your tired self. The last quarter had been a different quarter. it may not have been obvious, but i had taken the liberty to allow myself a larger comfort zone, to take time and try accepting new ideas. but i still fail to be more open, to be more truthful to myself and others. i believe i have failed in my single resolution of year 2010.

Resolve

frankly it really doesnt feel to me that it is already year end despite i'm already down to typing the second paragraph of the closing post for year 2010. it seemed like the year has passed too fast. now here, i would like to share a few things i would like to achieve for the year 2011.

work - i have totally lost myself in it. there is no longer any form of happiness, and every day is really a pain to me. to me there are only two forms of energy that keeps you going at work, satisfaction and peers. the former is non-existent, and the latter is countable. times had passed when i come home from work wanting to explode, i no longer feel as disturbed when having my quiet lunch.. i guess i had reached the rock bottom; i had become stagnant, and that isn't good. but today had been different. today, i finally see hope in rekindling some form connectivity. similar to the plant, Hyacinth, that i kept in office earlier this year, I see the chance of regrowth after the withered parts are chopped off. so i need more chopping efforts for the coming year..

health - i dont feel good. my body my skin is giving me many negatives. i am sad. what can i do? i guess its the stress at work, coupled with how unhealthy i have been seated in office almost for the whole day. it had improved when i was abroad, when i was in the ocean, when i frequent the beaches.. it improved, when i had less stress. so i need to drink more water, i need to dip myself in salt water, and i need to run starting with the frequency of once a month. i probably should buy some facial products too; its time i start taking care of my face.. not pretty le.. how bout an investment of $100/mth? sounds achievable huh?

family - this will be a short segment. i agree, that i am short tempered especially at home, and despite all the thousand and one reasons that are flowing through my head now, there isnt much concrete enough to lay out for dispute. it's my turn now to be more accomodating. will swallowing helps?

friends - i see the importance to keep my pool of friends around me, as i believe that friends stray over time despite how well you assume your friendship to be. i believe that the basis of retaining and growing a relationship, be it friendship or beyond, is to let the other party know and feel that you are always around for him/her/them. hence i have been constantly taking the initiative to meet individual friends, to catch up and to reminisce. but i feel i haven been doing enough. i want year 2011 to start with a boom; i have already organized 3 get-togethers on the first week of the new year =)

love - i am the porcupine. i build pricks and bricks around me with double and triple layer around me thinking to protect myself. but i am still always susceptible to that one single injury that can come through the underside or any other vulnerable area. i still fail to be strong in a relationship despite the veil i may wear. probably the more protection the animal gives to itself, the more hurt it may induce in doing so. i've been trying, but openess is not something that i can paint myself to be. and the art of it seemed to have shrunk over the years of negative experiences from being too open and accepting. i heard a joke from a friend earlier today, who described me as 女人当自强.. my answer was simple.. 再坚强的人也有脆弱的一面，只是有多容易察觉罢了.. i know what i should aim for. so shower me, with TLC.. teach me, to be more patient and accomodating.. love me, for who i am, and be loved.

personal development - i aim to digest 1 book a mth, regardless of what book. that means going library once a mth. that means seating down to read instead of being in front of facebook so very often. it means more discipline. it means more help needed. that aside, i have always wanted to take up some courses... do i have time?

me!self - i understand that the things i speak about are sometimes in a muddle state. and i was told that the instructions i give are not clear at times. and my memory is deproving; i havent been working them on the things i should, rather, it had probably been storing junk information that could better do without staying in its ROM position. i need an eraser, i need an ear, i need...

Rekindle

...i need to find my passion in life.. i need to find the lamp to light the way..

你永远都不懂我在想什么。
我想拥抱每个人，但我得先温暖我自己，请容忍我。
因为我已在练习容忍你。

How do you eat a Durian?

2010-12-19T04:53:00.000+08:00

Durians are weird fruits. It can make some people fall in love with it, or can turn people off by its smell, or after-smell.

But how do you eat a durian? You really need patience and a different technique from which to eat other fruits.

Use a sharp knife, a really sharp knife, to pry it open.

Get down to earth, and use your palms to open it up.

By now you should have alrd smell the odour/fragrance. which is it to you? is it really something you were hoping for?

以为变成鸟之后，就可以拥有自由。
而今，拥有了期盼的翅膀，
却只能在小小的空间里，飞翔。遗失了自由。

原来，自己还是搞不懂，
是想要翅膀，飞翔，或是自由，
还是只要一种追求飞翔的感觉。

i know i know.

I'm too fierce. i need to tone down.

so do you really have the patience to tolerate me?

i've eaten moochi breakfast, i've eaten a wonderful Sungei Road laksa + rojak, i've eaten blacko salad, i've eaten wonderful prawn meE, i've eaten takopachi + curry puff, i've eaten moochi + hot milk.

i think i'll be having diarrhoea.

now i'm super hungry now. i think i'll be eaten one bowl of instant noodle. its 4:25am le. do you notice the time of the post?

2010-12-19T01:26:00.001+08:00

i'm so angry now.

do you know what the reason i have to resort to blogging at times?

i'm so tired.

why isit i feel that its so difficult to be understood...?

i just want to come home and whine. and complain. why do i feel even worse. i feel like i am being questioned. like i am being placed in front of a panel. stop asking me questions and tell me whats right whats wrong and what i should be doing. just keep your mouths shut, listen and comfort me.

why isit so hard to find someone who really listens?

do you know how sour i'm feeling right now.

i feel like calling someone now. to be comforted. like a kid.

but why is it i dont feel like i can be understood. sometimes u just have to be quiet. and listen. really. but it has nothing to do with you so sometimes the innocent is just innocent.

why isit that i have to open my heart to pour out, only to be pricked over and over by different people.

why do i have to make myself vunerable. why am i so vunerable.

forget it.

just forget it.

really, but my tears just cant stop rolling...

The Science Of Love & Attraction

2010-12-07T21:43:00.001+08:00

The following article is written by Deborah Tan, Editor of Cleo (Singapore) - February 2010

---

It's the season of romance and you and your man are probably thinking of taking your relationship to the next level. You are excited but at the same time, you can't help wondering if he's your Mr. Right. Wait a sec ... who is Mr. Right? Actually, what is Mr. Right? Is he a man who fits perfectly into a long, long list? Is he a man who leaves you completely satisfied and does not make you wonder about another man ever again? Chances are, Mr. Right is like Santa Claus - he's supposed to be real, has lots of people pretending to be him and, he only gives and never expects to receive.

Think about it: of the many men you've dated, how many of them actually fit into the mould you created for your Mr. Right? It's extremely probable that all of us tend to find ourselves attracted to a certain type but end up dating/bedding/marrying someone totally "off". No, it doesn't mean we girls don't know what we want. It's human nature and women are just more guilty of it than men.

The first reason why a lot of us would go out with Mr. Not-Quite-Right is that women have a compulsive need to change things. Example: Jack is nice, Jack is smart, Jack loves jazz BUT Jack needs to pick up golf. Jack needs to learn French and Jack needs to also become the 56 other things I have on my list. We find ourselves attracted to a lesser version of Mr. Right because we believe we can tweak the man and make him perfect for ourselves.

The second reason why some of us end up with Mr. So-Not-Right is because we are wired from a young age to love a man who gives us nothing but grief, pain and sorrow. We have been taught, by countless Meg Ryan-flicks, that true love is tortured, painful and all-consuming. If we accepted a flawed man, it'd mean we are not shallow, it'd mean we are good people, it'd mean we are heroines in our own little rom-coms. We're a deluded bunch, aren't we?

But does this mean all of us are destined for a life of absolute unhappiness? No, because a good percentage of the female species recognizes that there is such a man called Mr. He's-Not-So-Right-But-He's-Alright. Yes, we may have a list. Yes, we may have gotten into relationships with men who are close cousins of pond scum, but at the end of the day, we can choose to spend our lives with someone whom we can live with and who genuinely wants to make us happy. There's nothing wrong with settling for someone who's not Mr. Right, you just have to be sure he'll be Mr. Right-There-When-I-Need-Him.

It is scientifically proven that attraction and lust are temporal and they fizzle out 24 months into a relationship. So even if you were lucky enough to snag the hunky, 1.8m-tall Hugh-Jackman-lookalike, your groin will stop aching with lust after some time. Which means both of you will need to start working earnestly at making love work on a level that goes beyond the physical. What do you have to keep you going then? Great conversations, a shared value system, mutual respect and a common goal that you both can work towards to. Of course, it won't hurt if you can still keep the bedroom action going.

2010-11-29T19:57:00.000+08:00

他是个哑巴，虽然能听懂别人的话，却说不出自己的感受。

她是他的邻居，一个和外婆相依为命的女孩。

她一直喊他哥哥。他真象个哥哥，
带她上学，伴她玩耍，含笑听她唧唧喳喳讲话。
他只用手势和她交谈，可能她能读懂他的每一个眼神。
从哥哥注视她的目光里，她知道他有多么喜欢自己。

他们从小一起玩耍，一起长大。

后来，她终于考上了大学，非常开心。

他便开始拼命挣钱，然后源源不断地寄给她。她从来没有拒绝。

终于，她毕业了，参加了工作。
然后，她坚定地对他说：“哥哥，我要嫁给你！”

他像只受惊的兔子逃掉了，再也不肯见她，无论她怎样哀求。

她这样说：“你以为我同情你吗？想报答你吗？不是，
我12岁我就爱上你了。”可是，她得不到他的回答。

有一天，她突然住进了医院。
他吓坏了，跑去看他。
医生说，她喉咙里长了一个瘤，
虽然切除了，却破坏了声带，可能再也讲不了话了。
病床上，她泪眼婆娑的注视着他。

于是，他们结婚了。很多年，没有人听他们讲过一句话。
他们用手，用笔，用眼神交谈，分享喜悦和悲伤。
他们成了相恋男女羡慕的对象。
人们说，那一对多么幸福的哑夫妻啊。

爱情阻挡不了死神的降临，他撇下她一个人先走了。
人们怕她经受不住失去爱侣的打击来安慰她。

她收回注视他遗像的呆痴目光，突然开口说：“他还是走了。”谎言已揭穿了……

人们惊讶之余，都感叹不已，这是一份多么执着的、深厚的、像童话一样的爱呀！
从此，她不再讲话，不久也离开了人世。

相恋中的男女仍会拿他们当作谈论的话题，他们常说，你听过那对哑夫妻的故事吗？默默爱你，直到永远……

吹著口哨奔馳在空曠的草原。
但願在美麗夕陽落下的那一刻，
及時趕到觀看第一顆升起的星星。

Positiveness

2010-11-16T00:17:00.000+08:00

The point is to look for things to be happy about. Do not always look for imperfection and be unhappy about it. There are bound to be things to be happy around you, just that you did not realise and tend to pay more attention on negative issues. Positiveness is necessary to propel you towards your goal. Even if you fail to reach the stars, you enjoyed happiness. Stay happy always.

quoted from Lessons from the movie: UP

想哭来试探自麻痹了没
全世界好象只有我疲惫
无所谓反正难过就敷衍走一回
但愿绝望和无奈远走高飞

有点子不见的是好事

2010-11-09T23:07:00.001+08:00

有些人很有天分，想得出各种好点子，没有天赋的人当然比较辛苦。
奇怪的是，最辛苦的人最后通常是最成功的。
脑子里有太多点子未必是好事。
你很容易太快跳到下一个猜想，然后再跳到下一个。
如果你没有很多点子，就必须让仅有的点子发挥效果。

"Along the way, I’ve learned that you can’t let anyone in too far and you can’t trust endlessly. The biggest mistake you can make is to care or love someone more than yourself, because then you are just setting yourself up for disappointment. Boundaries are necessary so that you can protect yourself, because once you’re broken, you’ll never be fully fixed."

ahhh!

damn tired. i think i am going crazy le. haha

It had been aptly as highlighted by a friend, that my week has gone on 2 different extremes - from holiday mood on Sat & Sun, to work piling like no body's business as from Monday..

Well you see, I usually manage with 1 meeting a week, and I am able to prepare the set of minutes if I bring it home and work on it through the night for next day submission. But ever since last Friday's meeting, of which I had absolutely zero time to work on coz I was away till Sunday night, I had accumulated 2 further meetings on Monday, and 2 meetings on Tuesday. and I have one more to go tomorrow.

So it meant that I had to grab time out of every means I can. and it resulted me having to wake up early before my usual waking up time just to type away at home! argh

and the management staff qi pian wo gan qing.. told me I can go home after the meeting earlier but ended up sending me back to office. I ended up going home much later instead of being early... so cheated =/

I am so tired having completed typing 2 set of minutes yesterday and 2 sets today. I have 2 more tomorrow. I am soOooo tired!!

i cant take it le. the butterflies have been stuck in my stomach since this morning, and my appetite has been down the whole day.

let's see, my morning test didnt start too well, but i was glad that i had scrapped pass it.

i rushed back to office w/o lunch only to find the place empty and my need to cab back.

i was then called in to management office to lecture me on the importance in keeping lips tight sealed. damn sad. its like i'm upsetting both parties either by saying or not to saying my own personal stuff. to think that my action even results in the need for "damage control". especially after monday's incident with my manager, i'm so tired trying to keep afloat and be understood in this company. haix.

then my mood got slightly better after another round of lamenting to my agent. of coz that means some money pay off but of well, for the better of myself =/

then i came back, and my mum showed me the newspaper cutting of cousin. so depressing. i can see the implication to my family financially.. sighs.. hope my remaining week wont be too hard to pass through. tml will be a lonnnngggg friday :(

something. Because the brick walls are there to stop the people who don’t want
it badly enough. They are there to stop the other people.

12 Things We'd Tell Our Bosses if We Could

2010-06-30T20:13:00.003+08:00

Below is an article written by Karen Burns

As employees, we are told to be diligent, to follow through, to be "self-starters," to have a good attitude, to be flexible and patient and dependable and loyal and respectful. We're told there is no "I" in "team." We're told, "You should just be grateful you have a job." But surely bosses have obligations to us just as we do to them. And surely one of the biggest of those obligations is to seek out their employees' point of view.
Of course, not all employees feel free to say what they're actually thinking. You know who you are! That's why in today's column, the employees of the world get to speak up. What would you say to your boss if you could say absolutely anything at all? This is your chance, people.
Here are a dozen to get you warmed up:
1. "Give me the tools I need to do a good job." If you're unsure, ask me. But, basically, time, materials, information, maybe even a little authority--these are what I need to succeed.
2. "Admit it when you make a mistake." It shows you're not afraid and is the best way to earn my respect. Whatever you do, don't act as if you never make mistakes. That's just ridiculous.
3. "Don't treat me like a cog on a wheel." I'm an individual. If I screw up, tell me. If someone else in my group screws up, tell him. Don't blame the whole team.
4. "Ask for my opinion from time to time." I might be able to offer some good ideas if you listened to me even half as much as you expect me to listen to you.
5. "I truly need frequent feedback." Please don't wait till the year-end performance review. I can do a better job for you if you let me know what I'm doing wrong, and what I'm doing right, on a regular basis.
6. "Don't leave me hanging out to dry." When things go south I need you to be a leader and back me up. If you are not loyal to me, it is impossible for me to be loyal to you.
7. "I can't hear you when you shout." Maybe someone once told you intimidation is a good management tool. But seriously, yelling at employees just makes you look weak and ineffectual.
8. "Don't make me work with idiots." I realize it's not easy but if there's a problem person in the group it's your job to resolve the situation. Don't let it drag on and on. It poisons the whole workplace.
9. "Have a clear agenda." If you don't know what you want, how do you expect me to? I need you to understand your own goals, and communicate them to me clearly.
10. "Don't lie about deadlines." There is no better way to lose the trust of your people than to set "fake" deadlines. Trust me enough to be honest with me and I'll do a good job for you.
11. "Be predictable." If you behave erratically I will spend more time and energy worrying about what you're going to do next than working.
12. "Mentor me." Ask me my goals. Give me projects that help me develop and grow. I will do a fabulous job for you if you take an interest in me and my career. And that's a win-win.

A doctor says to his patient, “I have bad news and worse news”.

“Oh dear, what`s the bad news?” asks the patient.

The doctor replies, “You only have 24 hours to live.”

“That`s terrible”, said the patient. “How can the news possibly be worse?”

The doctor replies, “I`ve been trying to contact you since yesterday.”

hi, are you guys reading this? coz I am irritated and I must rant.

Please take more conscious to be more gentlemanly.
1. What, you guys don't even notice when I am lagging behind? Hello, its not really that safe you know.
2. Money cannot be shared. Dont go about all those big theory about being ok to pay more for something since it will be other pple's turn. Not everyone agrees on this unfair system..
3. If a person voices unhappiness over paying more, do something, especially its a lady you guys are treating! Its not about guys having to accomodate girls, its the basic fact that if something is voiced, it should not be brought over like nothing happened. Sorry, if you have too much money to spare and be generous, that's your business, please dont expect that of everyone.

Lastly, everyone, please, not everyone likes to take cab. Like me, I don't see the point of paying so much. We've all got our own freedom to choose our preferences, so don't you point at other people's choice.

Ok, Enough of ranting.
I know better nxt time..

The Story of Bob

2010-06-26T18:49:00.000+08:00

Bob was in trouble. He forgot his wedding anniversary. His wife wasreally pissed.

She told him "Tomorrow morning, I expect to find a gift in the driveway that goes from 0 to 200 in 6 seconds AND IT BETTER BE THERE !!"

The next morning he got up early and left for work. When his wife woke up, she looked out the window and sure enough there was a box gift-wrapped in the middle of the driveway.

Confused, the wife put on her robe and ran out to the driveway, brought the box back in the house.

She opened it and found a brand new bathroom scale.

Bob has been missing since Friday.

love

How about the former and not the latter? hahahha >.<

Sun in Cancer natives have a strong survival instinct. They are protective of those they care about, and of themselves too. They are often quite reticent about sharing their inner selves to the rest of the world, and are often caught up in reminisce.

Cancers have a reputation for moodiness, although this trait is most evident when the Moon is in Cancer. Cancer needs roots. They resist change to an extent, and concern themselves about being secure and safe in most everything they do.

Cancers can be quite intrigued by objects with history attached to them — antiques, photos, souvenirs, and the like.

Cancer is a very sensitive sign, and they don't always appreciate it when you are blunt with them. Their reactions to hurt will depend on how thick a shell they have developed. Most Cancers react by withdrawing or retreating. Some have developed an ability to manipulate others to get what they want. They avoid direct confrontations almost as a rule.

Cancers are, in fact, quite yielding and soft when you have them in the right mood. They are one of the more hospitable signs of the zodiac. Sure, they can be touchy and indirect, but they are also very dependable, caring souls.

Cancer's glyph, or symbol, may represent the breasts as a symbol of the nurturing qualities of the sign.

hahahha! info from the same site as below.. Maybe I am neither Sun or Moon since I'm on planet Earth?! hmmm... *shudders from my own cold*

and which are you?

hey you!

没人比你更明白，多么精彩
经过荣耀与失败；
就算输了比赛，却依然值得喝彩

其实我们都明白，多少等待
结果都让人意外；
我总是庆幸这些年都有你在

如若放下　原来没有太多的牵挂
归家好吗　谁人愿去分真与假

Somewhere out there, someone's saying a prayer;
That we'll find one another in that big somewhere out there.

i started to dream..

2010-05-05T20:30:00.002+08:00

breeze blow through the phan who wan,
bubbling waves on the beach.
with the evening setting sun,
is the deep blue sea.
sitting alone on the porch i started to dream,
..

this is one of the pri sch (nursery?) songs i learnt long time ago.

and i still remember!!

is anyone else able to complete the stanza for me?

Extracted from a friend's tumblr

have you had a sweetest dream but waking up to endure a nightmare?
a nightmare of reality that the sweetest dream isn’t going to happen to you..
so maybe that’s why we dream? to keep us sane at least..

some months ago, there is the talk of this movie Clash of the Titans coming up, and I am just as much excited to await its arrival. it'll be 2 months from then before the show is on, but it's okay to wait. now that it's up, that's one movie that I do not wish to watch. Can you please spare me from it? at this point of time, there is just one movie i wanna watch. and i really wanna watch, but i think its now too late to catch it. sobs

>_<

I understand, I really do.

But it wouldn’t be make-believe,
If you believed in me.

Tomorrow

sometimes I have no choice but to agree, that memories of the younger times just seems to linger..

on my way home from office today, I told the taxi driver this address 'West Coast, Ulu Pandan, Hong Leong area' of which is my house, and the driver repeated after me. After alighting the first passenger, there's just me and my other friend. Since I am to alight next, this cab driver drove to Holland area with the address of 'Ulu Pandan' in mind. but but its wrong! Despite that I only found out that I indeed quoted the wrong address as Ulu Pandan is the address of my old pri sch, its a wonder why the cab driver did not correct me when I told him the conflicting addresses.

I vividly rembr my mum saying the address those few time we took cab more than a dozen year ago.. but how the world can I confuse that address of my old pri sch with my house?! argh

One dozen year; some things just sticks on huh? haha I dunno to laugh or cry at myself. but in anycase, right now, I have no energy to think about that...
