Grrr?

I found this damn hilarious as I was looking at the live commentary on soccernet, on the Manchester Derby.

"Rooney is in full scowling, frowning mode - if he were a cartoon the speech bubble would say 'Grrrr'. "

Yay! Man United Won~

1 month after...

and it is 29th November!

Happy Birthday(s) to...

Mister Liang Qiyang
Miss Lucia Loh
Master Nicholas Lee

And a coincidence, all their surname start with L. Haha.
=)

Happy Happy Day!! =D

Evil.

Condolences to the family of the deceased, Ms Lo Hwei Yen. So young, and such a bright future ahead. Sigh. It is saddening to have a fellow Singaporean passing from such cruel and senseless acts of terrorism.

What is the rationale of using violence to solve problems?
Why can't human beings all have this function, download the latest morals package, then we wouldn't have such damn problems.

Sadly, many people have wrong morals/ideals and/or are being taught wrong morals/ideals by their "teachers".

Perhaps it is right, humans are really the root of all evil.

But as much as I can whine and say here, there really isn't anything much I can do now. Though I'm not religious, I can only pray for her to find her peace in wherever she may be, and also for her family to pull through and hang on.

生命过客 - 童安格

Heard 李伟菘 sang this on the Channel 8 Gala show.
Brings back more memories. I really loved this song then, and of course, I still love it.

Meaningful lyrics.

Book?

I chanced upon this book, titled, "How to Pass Your Exams."
I was thinking, I could have been able to write such a book too.
It would probably be a thousand pages long thick.

With the sample below:




















And there you have it, my thousand page book, with only 10 pages filled. The rest are all blank.
I don't know about you, but to me, there really isn't a methodology that helps you to pass your exams, besides hardwork and clarification of your doubts.

Myself?

I ought to be studying, but I still decided to be a net rat.
My interest elicted from Jack's comments, and linked from Luke's blog. I did this test, which seems awfully similar to the one I did EONs ago. (Probably is the same one.)

Your view on yourself:
You are down-to-earth and people like you because you are so straightforward. You are an efficient problem solver because you will listen to both sides of an argument before making a decision that usually appeals to both parties.

If only being straight forward doesn't get me killed. =)

The type of girlfriend/boyfriend you are looking for:
You like serious, smart and determined people. You don't judge a book by its cover, so good-looking people aren't necessarily your style. This makes you an attractive person in many people's eyes.

Well, true. But let's face it, it still matters to a certain extent.

Your readiness to commit to a relationship:
You are ready to commit as soon as you meet the right person. And you believe you will pretty much know as soon as you might that person.

No idea what is "might that person" suppose to mean. But I'm no gipsy with a globe. I'd rather believe in nurture and building love. But of course, you need 2 hands to clap.

The seriousness of your love:
Your have very sensible tactics when approaching the opposite sex. In many ways people find your straightforwardness attractive, so you will find yourself with plenty of dates.

If I were to have tactics, does that mean I take love as a RTS game? Hmm. Then, it probably can't be too serious.

Your views on education
Education is very important in life. You want to study hard and learn as much as you can.

Well, yeah. But, there is still a practical reason behind it.

The right job for you:
You're a practical person and will choose a secure job with a steady income. Knowing what you like to do is important. Find a regular job doing just that and you'll be set for life.

Quite likely, although I will choose not to believe so.

How do you view success:
You are confident that you will be successful in your chosen career and nothing will stop you from trying.

Yes, nothing will stop me from trying. But as to whether I will be successful, we'll see.

What are you most afraid of:
You are afraid of things that you cannot control. Sometimes you show your anger to cover up how you feel.

Gee. Nope. Since I can't control it, why on earth should I be afraid? I'd probably be used to it by now. I'm more afraid of things that I can control, and that I screwed up.

Who is your true self:
You are mature, reasonable, honest and give good advice. People ask for your comments on all sorts of different issues. Sometimes you might find yourself in a dilemma when trapped with a problem, which your heart rather than your head needs to solve.

I actually use my heart and head quite effectively. I'd always portrayed such an image to others, since I hear such comments often. However, I often wonder how true is this, how much of my advices are good.

我是幸福的!

刚刚看完电视,是第八频道的‘心晴大动员’。

今天这一集,说道一个一家三口的小家庭。
爸爸在六年前因为糖尿病而得拒掉一条腿,装上了义肢。
因为他行动不便,很多雇主都不想聘请他。
结果,他便在家附近摆摊卖报纸。

妈妈呢?在九年前因为一场意外而跌倒。结果神经断了。
也是行动不便。更糟的是在五年前,女儿推她的轮椅时,
因为地不平而把妈妈绊倒。从那一天起,她便不再下床了。

可怜的女儿,今年才九岁,就得帮母亲倒排泄物、煮饭给家人吃、
帮父亲卖报纸、还得做功课;非常懂事。真是难得。
她长大后一定会出人头地!
我看了都觉得惭愧。

我的命真的是比她好上千千万万倍。
怎能说命苦呢?要比苦,还轮不到我呢!!
既然那么幸福,就因该跟好的生活下去!
朋友们,我们多数都是幸福的。要好好珍惜生命!

大家要加油!

The mixed strategies

Life is like a game.
There are many strategies you can play.

But there could be many different outcomes with different payoffs.

Sometimes you'll get subjective payoffs that you don't really know what is the real one.

The superficiality of being superficial.
The childishness of being mature.
The loneliness despite the company.
The feeling of not being alone despite being alone.
The despair albeit the happiness.
The feeling of bliss even though you're in pain.
The complexity of being simple and yet the simplicity of being complex.
The lost feeling even though you know what you are doing.
You don't know what you are doing, but you are doing it right.

Bliss is when you are seemingly alone, but yet you don't feel so.

Happyness is when you take your dinner at almost 11pm though you are not hungry, but the amount of food you consume satisfy your desire/cravings.

Lucky is when you have friends who will stick with you, through thick and thin and support you when you do anything.

Happy is when a simple gesture of yours make someone smile.

Post Number 600.

Hey blog!
I'm back. Perhaps for the last time.

Has been a week of going on an emotional rollercoaster. Perhaps not of myself, but of all the people around me.

I know what I see. I should really be a detective.
But I'm glad. The hero came to the rescue.

Happyness is self determined. It is up to you to decide whether you want to be happy. No one is supposed or not supposed to be happy. You choose your destiny.

2 ups, 2 downs. Not promising, but not devastating. I will survive, as I've always had.
Offered by OCBC already accepted. So I guess, my journey to the land of buns and 小笼包s is finally coming true.

Come to think abt it, there are so many things that I will miss when I leave. I probably will cry for a few days when I reach there. Lol.

Went to 王力宏's concert on Saturday. All I can say is. WOW. Fantastic! I never really say, loved him. But I'm damn impressed with the concert and his performance.

Have you all ever thought of this?
If one day, just that day. There were no laws, and regardless of what you did, no one would know/bother/retaliate. And there are not retribution/repercussions after that day.
What would you do?

(This was a question raised by someone from the gang quite long ago. Haha)

This sem is finally coming to an end. I cannot wait.

Take care blog. I'll see you again if we're fated. If not, it is time for another blog. =)

Judgement

Finally had some energy today.

Loving impromptu stuff. =)

Judgement:
–noun
1.
an act or instance of judging.
2.
the ability to judge, make a decision, or form an opinion objectively, authoritatively, and wisely, esp. in matters affecting action; good sense; discretion: a man of sound judgment.
3.
the demonstration or exercise of such ability or capacity: The major was decorated for the judgment he showed under fire.
4.
the forming of an opinion, estimate, notion, or conclusion, as from circumstances presented to the mind: Our judgment as to the cause of his failure must rest on the evidence.
.....
(Extracted from www.dictionary.com )

My judgement of things had been poor.
Eyesight blurred by haze.
Foresight overshadowed by hindsight.

3 years back, a bad judgement was passed. History seems to repeat itself, even though it may not be in the same context. Whatever the context, the concept is the same. A wrong judgement leads to a wrong outcome. So is History really useful?

Yeah I'm someone very keen on History, and I think it is definitely useful, however, it depends on how we make use of this vast ocean of knowledge. Many people say, learn from your mistakes, it's easier said than done. Yeah for many things, talk is well... just cheap.

Some times I feel disgusted with myself, but heck. Thou shall not taint thy soul.

Some things are just plain disgusting, and perhaps can't be accepted even by myself. Perhaps this is life. The real deal. The closer you are to something, the less you can see, the further you are, all the answers come flocking to you like vultures to carcasses.

Some times I wonder, what is life really like? Is it like taking a stroll on the beach? Enjoying the breeze and the tan? Or walking aimlessly through the desert, with hungry vultures waiting to swoop down on your corpse once you collapse? Or even, cooing like a baby in the baby cot.

It is definitely not like that of the baby cot. Life is never so innocent and beautiful, perhaps it can be, but things and people around will certainly taint it.

But as to whether you enjoy, hate or dread it, it would have to depend on you. Yourself. Mind over matter they say. Perhaps that is too telekinesis, but with the right mindset and attitude, whatever shit you go through wouldn't seem so shitty after all.

I've rarely posted such entries in quite a bit. Perhaps I've been lost in the abyss for quite some time, losing track of time, space and personality.

Maybe it is time,

time to end this blog. At it's 599th post.
