What's the world coming to?

做人很难,做好人更难。。。
好心送人回家,还要被批评没送人到家门口。。。

so what if i'm a driver? must a driver send every single one to their doorstep? i can jolly well drive home myself. save petrol, save time, save energy...

and having to drop 4 person, so i have to go to 4 different places? WTF... do i get paid? At least taxi drivers get more respect then me...

you think your "thanks for the ride!" is very big?

so have i not been good enough or are people getting more and more demanding and over the board?

don worry friends, i will still give rides to people, just wanna vent some anger here... next time do be more appreciative of others.. it can really be tiring to drive, and petrol doesnt come cheap... i always feel that my petrol expenses is cheaper then for you to take a cab, thats why i always try to volunteer to fetch people... but please don take it for granted..

Swiss Gathering + PaintBall!

Woo... finally we had a swiss gathering after so long, ha even though i always meet Kx and co, but not always are we present together at the same time, and Ze Ren always bz with his secretive stuffs in NUS so seldom get to meet him too... plus HJ and SR, one working another studying for masters ha... everyone is so BZ!!

yea had a good dinner at ICHIBAN KOSHIYA or something like tt, ha not bad, nice salmon and relatively nice food... and the best thing is its FREE! thanks SJ for still remembering and bringing up that we didnt get to meet up during my bdae and kx's bdae.. haa so we got a treat! should have ordered more haha...

but yesterday night, i still ended up paying.. this time on the MJ table with kx, sj, zr at my house... i lost exactly about the amount that my dinner was worth ahha... so in the end breakeven la... long time nv had MJ with ZR already ha.. but i was really suay la i think and its really really tiring for old night mj... think i really cant afford to torture my old body again for such things.. a pity JA got work cannot join...

talkig about work it will really be sian in another half a year's time... can see HJ was really quite tired about her work, both mentally and physically i suppose.. very soon it will be my turn... ha... anyway thanks everyone for the "treat"!! haha

had our exco paint ball session just now! ha, it's really fun, plus given that its heavily subsidised, its really worth it, and my team emergerd champion! hah, thanks to our sharpshooter gloria, brave gal ferrarina, mr terrorist and bdae boy eric plus Joel who always chiong infront and at the centre to cover for the gals haha.. of course plus me! anyway its just a 4 grp contest plus we saw alot of friendly fire haha... not as painful as i thought it would have been... really good bonding and we don our soldier's uniform!

hah really fun and tiring today... only bad thing that happened was i scratched blackie... damn... also donnoe how it ended up that way... maybe cos a bit distracted plus that stupid person walking along that already narrow road... luckily it wasnt a big scratch... but still... yea...

Interview Week

So i have decided last week that i shall give the Big 4 a try... this is after talking to Jae Chia hah, who is still teaching now.. well i should go get some private experience before embarking on teaching ha.. since i'm still young right?

so when for 3 interviews over the last two days, ha pretty similar style for all... with people receiving me at the reception area, before proceeding for a mingling session with the seniors, den followed by an interview... ha

basically i feel it really depends on your luck and who you got as your interviewer... guess i'm lucky cos i got offered for all 3 companies that i went for! so now its between Deliotte and Touche, Ernst & Young and KPMG... ha....

the toughest question i got so far should be the ethic question ba.... "Describe one scenario or situation whereby your ethics/integrity are challenged or compromised" wah its really hard.... haha, den i described a situation whereby everyone copied during a closed book elective quiz that eventually evolved into a open book quiz haha.... luckily the interviewer didnt penalise me hahah....

yea and have been working on grad trips planning! yea exchanged EUROS already haha, and anticipating the trip!

X-Road: Teaching or Big 4??

Will come up with a Cost-Benefit Analysis soon as recommended by KX and Co... definitely a choice that can have so much impact.. definitely not one that can be decided overnight... i shall see after my 301 paper...
haha the last blog a bit vulgar so have decided to take it off!

我爸我妈

As i sit outside my room in the study area trying to type my 6 page long essay for Media in America, i cant help but listen to my parents' bedroom talk... for friends who been to my house before should know the proximity of the study area is very close to the master bedroom...

i feel more interested to type this blog den my Media in America essay even though the deadline is tml!

Well well, sometimes i think the way they communicate can be amusing.. one moment they can be brickering over some issues and sound fierce, the other moment they can be talking about another thing in another tone.... Hmm donnoe how to describe, but it is just maybe heartwarming in a sense to hear them talk like tt.. the way old couples communicate ba, although they are not tat old also ha...

they are sure a distraction for me to continue my work... i hope i will also be the same in future to whoever is the one to accompany me to walk through life's journey together ha... its funny how a couple can be together for so long.. they dont do special things to each others, and work everyday, ya but the communication is just there... yea...

okay they have quieten down already.. time for me to continue my dreadful essay.. sian...

how can they switch it off just like that?

Was happily watching Man Utd Vs Hull City at the coffeeshop just now... it was just after half time and i just bought my cup of tea to last me thru the 2nd half when the coffeeshop person actually just walked in front of the TV and switch it off...

WTH right...

Much to the dismay of many... groans can be heard... just like when Ronaldo misses a sitter and try to look frustrated... but we can do nothing about it... anyway as people left, i was left to savour my cup of tea... within minutes the coffeeshop became quiet...

anyway just dont understand why they have to switch it off half way.. not as if we are making a lot of noise, and if they don want ppl to be watching there, why play it in the first place? puzzled...

ya so gotta come here and blog about it while waiting for the perking effect of the hot tea to die down before i go to sleep...

tml will be another day of studying!

Coming week got 2 more presentation to finish and also another elective term paper to submit... hope to get over the exams soon ha... think i should go jog in the morning tml... exercise can really make one feel more energetic.. went with Meng, and Mei they all on monday to Bukit Batok Nature reserve there to run, ha its good.. the problem will be the getting up from bed part which is the hardest.. so time to find some khakis to keep each other discipline le hahah...

update?

Donnoe how to update ha...

Has always been bz with CAC stuffs and school projects, didnt really know what to write in the blog as i don want to bore my friends with all those CAC related stuffsss...

Anyway recent happenings
- Missed deadline for DBS online Assessment
- Decided not to apply for banks at all since i'm totally not interested
- Tried filling up the Big 4 application forms
- Failed my 301 quiz...
- Downloaded a strategy game called M.A.X. from the internet... (its a game i played when i was in sec school, haa so its really a classic now i suppose.. no special animation, 2D, turn-based, dont have alot of special effects, but i just think its nice, and nostalgic... but has been holding myself back from installing it cos i dont think i should be spending time on games now)

ya and recently i think i realised 暴饮暴食 is a good way to destress... i think the feeling of fullness and satisfaction is good! bring the mind away from things and you feel good with the good food! ha, and i'm skinny! so no problems for me haa...

just went for a haircut just now, and realised i really haven been to JP for quite some time and i suddenly realised the smell or rather atmosphere of a shopping mall can be de-stressing also! you see all the bright lights, shops, music, nice things around, food etc etc haha...

sometimes i think its really good to have someone really close to share things with, happy, unhappy stuffs, boring and interesting things.. and sometimes its just the "you know the person is there" that kinda feeling... yupz...

I wanna watch a movie! 赤壁 was so long ago... i wanna eat Nachos with lotsa cheese!

I'm a NERD...

ha that was one of the comment given by my tuition kid's mum when we were having dinner haa... i was treated to a sumptous dinner at one restaurant as a reward for the kid's good results haa... the dinner was really quite good well but i think it cost a bomb haa.. but anyway, however good it is i think it has already been flushed away le! hee...

Shall go there again next time if i have the budget! =)

Anyway she says that if she is an interviewer, she will associate me with a nerd as the first impression, however she may think differently after the interview... she encourage me to speak more as it can help elevate my impression in others... apparently i think she likes the way i speak and carry myself i suppose haa but i'm too shy a person to be talkative la... shall work on that!

i really didnt know i can look like a nerd.. cos i think there are more nerdy person around then me hahhaha

Well its time about time to be sending in resumes to all the bank applications but i'm not doing it.. no time and no motivation to do it... maybe cos i don think i will really like a bank job other than the money and prestige that ppl always associate it with welll... shall see how... i have already missed one application deadline....

Seriously i'm considering teaching as a career... after hearing from my tuition kids what some teachers in school does... i think i can do ten times better... but what is holding me back?

- Association with a government job?
- Low pay that may not go up?
- Slow career progression?

Vs

Satisfaction....

i'm still thinking....

Short Breather...

Finally got time for a short breather... Today is the first day since 10 August that i got the chance to be at home at 8 plus (Considered early)...

I don live in hall, and i sleep at home every day, but can u believe i haven seen my parents for 4 days? Since sunday, every night i only managed to get home earliest 1am and my parents had slept. When i woke up, they would already had gone out to work, and the cycle repeats... feel so bad...

Since last sunday when grandma passed away, was mostly at Teck Whye till thurs... Friday went back to school followed by campus concert urshering, Saturday was Cynosure Ball and stayed overnight at hotel till sunday before meeting for HJ and SJ birthday.

Monday was CAC Election Rally at night, Tuesday and Wednesday was Recruitment Drive and interview cum Global Bank talk.... REally, everyday was so packed until today's' election, finally i can say that there is time for a breather.... i hope to be able to catch up on the stuffs that i missed out this past weeks during the weekend....

I have been wanting to thank all my friends and cousins who were concerned about me since 外婆 passed away last sunday. This 2 weeks have been really too busy to think about it...

Had my tuition at night that sunday, and was eating dinner at the coffee shop at nine plus close to ten when my bro called. My dad ask us to go down to Teck Whye, and i knew it, the time has come... 外婆 is supposed to be at NUH and there can be no other reasons to go down to Teck Whye other than one...

Sped down in 10 mins, saw her for the last hour... she was struggling, in great pain, held our hands, i couldnt talked to her, my voice was lost, choked with tears... She groaned loudly and everyone of us could feel the pain.. we were just as equally in pain... The buddhist prayer was playing faintly in the background, and we all hope she can have a easy last few moments...

Its hard to control emotions even as a blog about this...

She shouted, thru the oxygen mask in Hokkien:" wah gia liao xiang zhao gou yi" ( i leave already who will take care of him) We wept and consoled her, we will take care of him, don worry, he also don want you to worry.... he is old enough to take care of himself already....

外婆 always scold him.. this is their way of communication for 50 years...

She told him:" wen lang ye gum qing... gia liao liao" (we have come to the end of the road of our relationship). Even though 外婆 was always scolding him, their love for each others were deep... 外公 always maintain silent as 外婆 did her scolding... this is their way of maintaining a relationship, accomodation for each other, understanding the temper of each others, that was how they lasted the past half-century...

Towards the end, she lost consciousness, and laid quietly in the arms of my uncle... slowly her breathing gets softer and softer... the rise and fall of her chest gets lesser and lesser.. and she left...

Every single one of us were shaken, but we pulled together, did all the arrangements required and make sure she can leave with peace in her mind...

The 4 days that followed must have been what she wanted to see.... Our whole family came together, worked hand in hand... i talked to a cousin i haven seen in 2 years... We always played together when we were young, but we grew apart as each of us became busy... we talked and helped each others out, knew more about each other's life now...

in the 4 days, i talked to one of my uncle more than wad i talked to him about for the past 10 years... I believe this is what 外婆 wanted to see, and i believe 冥冥中 she was with us all along to bring the family together.... she has a sharp mind, she could remember every single one of our names and what we were doing even though we don't always meet... its only her body that failed her....

During that 4 days, the person who felt worst could be none other than 外公.. he has a very tanned complexion... but i could see his swollen eyes, the redness in the eyelid despite it being tanned... his tears fell quietly, how is he to accept having to live without his partner... i realli hope i can do more for 外公... i shall try as much as possible to make time to go Teck Whye if i can...

Hope 外婆 will be able to bless 外公 and everyone of us....

This blog shall be dedicated to my dearest 外婆。。。

Mj and Coffee

Well had one of my worse loss in MJ yesterday with kx, eileen and notoriously good at "diao zhin" queen Shan Yi...

Loss 1.5 times my chips... had $30 worth at the begining and i lost $45... All these attributed to me always "开枪"... i think 75% of the times its either they zi mo or i "开枪"...

Well i think at least this loss will curb my craving for mJ for the next 13 weeks ba, haa, the real busy school term has just started plus CAC committments its all going to be super crazy plus i got two tuition groups to handle plus projects.. hmm... feel sad cos i lost the extra income that i got from selling my compiled notes haa.. well just treat it as i gave away my compiled notes for free then...

Oh next topic of my post this time is about Coffee and Tea... Why i love coffee and tea so much..many of my friends say that i'm like an old man haa always drinking this two drinks even in hot weather.. well i actually have my own explanation for it...

Reason 1
They contain caffaine which perks me up and make me feel alert. it also makes my heart pump slightly faster and blood flow faster which is a good feeling haa

Reason 2
I cant take cold drinks... There is no medical history behind this reason, but i knew it within my body myself. Each time i drink cold drinks or cold desert, especially after eating a hot meal, i feel bad within my stomach and i will feel v lethargic... Worse, my usual symptons may appear...

Usual symptons
Sneezing all the way, causing tired eyes, and very bad feeling....

To add on to my reason 2, i feel that my body "qi" is not enough.. sounds very Chinese Medicine?? haa but its real. My body cannot produce enough warmth enough, i knew it myself cos i always have cold hands and legs, and i cant stand being in aircon environment for too long. and when that happens, i start to sneeze. its also the same when i stay up late at night, and have not enough sleep, i feel my body cant regulate enough energy...

That also explains why i like to do gardening sometimes, cos i feel good under the sun haa i like the warmth and i like to sweat, makes me feel better...

All in all, i think i'm a little 体弱多病 kinda hahahha.... although i don fall sick and have fever those kinda, but i just cant tahan too extreme stuffs ba... so must learn to take care of my self better now hahaha

Me and my foul mouth cum temper...

I know i'm not one who has a very nice temper (those who work with me will know) contrary to what many who just get to know me perceive me as... many think i have the Mr Nice guy look, well its all in the appearance only, and it depends on how close you are to me...

Basically i'm an introvert, therefore i don express what i feel deep down inside me unless I know the person well enough, and sometimes is because i cant be bothered to express my opinion or critique since it's not something that affects me and i shouldnt be a kaypoh.

however if the issue is something that i care about and concerns me or my friends, normally i cant hold my tongue back. Just like my father (trying to link my temper to some hereditary genes haha - Excuses), i am one who will just shoot if i don like somethings or if i feel things are not being done up to my expectations... Well people may say I have very poor EQ, no denying that from my side, but its just me... i think i will offend tonnes of people with my temper and its not easy to work with me...

But funnily, during my PA attachment, there wasnt many things that affect my temper even though i see many things that i think can be improved on... perhaps it was due to my position at that time, i was just an intern and wasnt in an authoratative position... I guess its because i'm a perfectionist ba, i wouldnt allow my work to be sub standard especially if its within my control...

i really hope i can improve on my temper bit by bit, otherwise i really will get those related illness or disease soon haa e.g. hypertension... Seriously i think my partner needs to be one who has very good temper or EQ to help curb mine...

Genting!

OoO Back from Genting!! it was a fun trip and definitely worth the money... for just $97 bucks we got a 3D2N stay at first world Hotel plus a to and fro bus coach haa....

First day was good! cos we got a good deal.. we booked for a VIP coach but got an even better one! One that can watch movies, play games and is definitely comfortable! ha


So here are the things we did over the 3 days!


Bowling

Watch Dark Knight

CASINO!

Watch HELLBOY

MAKAN

Walk walk

Play Boardgames!!!


Overall it was a relax trip haa... we did things at our own pace, sleep till we are full... took naps, played, gambled, and watch 2 movies! haa cos it was really quite cheap over there and there wasnt alot for us to do....


Jun An wanted to go have his palm read at Genting... but didnt in the end haa, it would surely have been quite interesting to know what the fortune teller would say...


Anyway here are the accounts:
ALL of us lost except JunAN who won at least 300 Ringgit haha
WeiZheng lost the least at 85 Ringgit and me 100 Ringgit...
Kx and SJ slightly more...
and after this experience we have identified KX as a potential future gambling addict! haha, anyway it was really fun la at the casino, though it would have been even better if we had all won!
KX already plans to have a yearly trip to Genting hahaha.....

End of PA!

Whooooh! Finally ended my PA yesterday... and met up with Jun An and Zeren for Red Cliff.. Well its quite a nice show, it will be even better if they could have launched both part 1 and 2 together.. now gotta wait for its part 2... After movies was MJ session with Kx and JA and ZR, haa, was tired le, so ended after only one round, well but it was enjoyable...

i'm relieved that finally the working life has ended, at least for now... And i'm really glad that i went thru this Professional Attachment... I learnt alot in this ten weeks and i must say that i really know more about myself after this experience.

Prior to this PA, i only have a vague idea on what i want, in a very general form, and I'm just following the flow to try to reach my long term targets...

Now, I know better what i want in life, what is my priority now, my short term goals and what i want to do in the near future... Yes, previously i do noe wad i want, but i realised that what i have been wanting to achieve previously is more of a long long term goal, but before i can reach my final destination, i got alot of hurdles to clear and short term goals to achieve... yea... and i should be more focus now and not be side-tracked by distractions along the way...

There wasnt any bombastic event or what that happened while having my attachment at Steven Tan PAC, but it was the day to day experience that enlightened me... things I see each day...

Finally gotta thanks all my colleagues at Steven Tan PAC for teaching me all the stuffs and being patient =)

I shall embrace my last stretch of Uni life with vigour and strive to achieve my short term goals while always having in view of my final destination in the horizon...

i Wanna travel!

Was drafting my email to NTU International Relations Office just now for my withdrawal from INSTEP and once again gotta overcome the feeling of wasting such a good opportunity...


Well, was also watching Channel U's 冒险王 the taiwan show and Channel 8's Mark Lee's show 有话敢敢说...
冒险王 they went to Argentina.. Woo the big ice berg there was majestic, and the sled dogs... oh they are so cute in the snow...
While Mark Lee they all went to Venice, Italy... haa i love to watch this kinda travel show, cos can see alot of different things overseas.. Yup and i would really hope to be able to explore these countries one day! haa
Must work towards that!
On the other hand, lifang passed me this blog that day, its about a parent who blog about their children..haa... friends who are interested can go www.offsprings.blogspot.com their kids are very cute...
COme to think of it, when u have children, it wouldnt be easy for u to go travelling as and when u like already... haa i can see it directly from my parents... you will be all tight down, so i think the best is to travel and enjoy enough le den settle down... Yeap!

一切完美


Oh man, this show is so nice.. currently screening on Channel U every monday to friday 11pm.. well so far two episode has passed, and each episode kinda have its story and meaning... coupled with the fantastic acting of Thomas Ong 王沺裁, Michelle Chia 谢韵仪....

In this 13-episode drama series, the stories revolve around beauty, both inside and outside. Alex Tan (Thomas Ong) a plastic surgeon and psychologist Kelly Lim (Michelle Chia) find it hard to come to terms with each other’s definition of beauty.

A plastic surgeon, perfectionist and skeptic when it comes to love, Alex never believed in eternity, until he met Kelly. He strongly believes “there is no ugly person in this world, only poor people” (“没有丑人,只有穷人”). When his daughter and ex girlfriend return unexpectedly, the relationship with Kelly is strained with obstacles.

One day his loses his sight temporarily, that is when he finally braves himself to go after his true love… The kind and caring psychologist Kelly, is not exactly what she seem to be. She has long been secretly admiring Alex since their university days, however due to misunderstandings, the relationship never worked out.

When Kelly’s mother decided to remarry, Kelly was distraught but with Alex’s constant encouragement they both become closer. When Kelly found out that Alex is taking a step back in their relationship in order for his brother to woo her, she is furious and dates Bobby Low (Alex’s friend and rival in cosmetic surgery) instead to spite him. Little did she know that actually she is being used…

Okie what i love most about this show is Michelle Chia's bickering with 王沺裁.. She always have some intelligent sarcastic remarks for him... she is able to depict the role of an intelligent women very well who can so 婉转的‘酸’王沺裁...

Otherwise for gals, you all can look at the show's eye candy - SKY, haa Thomas Ong's brother who is a gym instructor. My tuition kid actually looks like him can u believe it, just that he is like the teenager version haa..

Wah now i really become a 电视迷 already haa....

Decided...

It was supposed to be a just try and see thingy... Until i got allocated a place for exchange to Vienna University of Economics and Business Administration which set me thinking for the past few months....

To go or not to go...

My recent decision was to wait for the scholarship award results that i applied... hoping that i would get the 4000Euros award which would help offset 80% of the cost.. But alas... there has been no news with regards to the application until few days back i sent an email to check out... and ya, the award has already been presented...

In the end, i decided, i shall not take up debts of $13000 just to go for the exchange... i do not want to be burden with debts of $30,000 right after graduating... $17000 will come from the school fees loan that i took up with OCBC... scary right, imagine u are already $30000 in debt even before u start wrking... yupz

this is even espcially so after my PA, realising that auditing rice is not good to eat and money is hard to earn... plus changes coming up for my dad's business... SHould be more financially conscious and careful le... i'm not young anymore haaa.....

Yea working hard now to earn tuition money... taking up one additional student tml... and hopefully another potential one will work out... yeap...

I shall save to make my Grad trip a fulfilling, fun, and unforgetable one... instead of spending 13k in europe alone for a few months, shall take part of the money to spend on my grad trips with my friends which i can totally enjoy with!!!

绝对家人 - 金玉良言

用跑的能到终点,
用走的也能到终点
为何不用走的,
沿途中还能欣赏风景。。。

haa... A word of wisdom from channel 8's 9 p.m. show to remind us not to be too deeply engrossed in the rat race... it's good to take a breather from time to time to realise what is more important in life so that you will not regret missing out things that you never realise u are missing...

Well its not saying that u shouldnt pursue ur dream and pia for it haa just that u should slow down and think about all that you are doing from time to time... =)

SO true about me

This is super duper true! especially those in RED!!! haa


Portrait of an INFJ - Introverted iNtuitive Feeling Judging(Introverted Intuition with Extraverted Feeling)

The Protector

As an INFJ, your primary mode of living is focused internally, where you take things in primarily via intuition. Your secondary mode is external, where you deal with things according to how you feel about them, or how they fit with your personal value system.

INFJs are gentle, caring, complex and highly intuitive individuals. Artistic and creative, they live in a world of hidden meanings and possibilities. Only one percent of the population has an INFJ Personality Type, making it the most rare of all the types.

INFJs place great importance on havings things orderly and systematic in their outer world. They put a lot of energy into identifying the best system for getting things done, and constantly define and re-define the priorities in their lives. On the other hand, INFJs operate within themselves on an intuitive basis which is entirely spontaneous. They know things intuitively, without being able to pinpoint why, and without detailed knowledge of the subject at hand. They are usually right, and they usually know it. Consequently, INFJs put a tremendous amount of faith into their instincts and intuitions. This is something of a conflict between the inner and outer worlds, and may result in the INFJ not being as organized as other Judging types tend to be. Or we may see some signs of disarray in an otherwise orderly tendency, such as a consistently messy desk.

INFJs have uncanny insight into people and situations. They get "feelings" about things and intuitively understand them. As an extreme example, some INFJs report experiences of a psychic nature, such as getting strong feelings about there being a problem with a loved one, and discovering later that they were in a car accident. This is the sort of thing that other types may scorn and scoff at, and the INFJ themself does not really understand their intuition at a level which can be verbalized. Consequently, most INFJs are protective of their inner selves, sharing only what they choose to share when they choose to share it. They are deep, complex individuals, who are quite private and typically difficult to understand. INFJs hold back part of themselves, and can be secretive.

But the INFJ is as genuinely warm as they are complex. INFJs hold a special place in the heart of people who they are close to, who are able to see their special gifts and depth of caring. INFJs are concerned for people's feelings, and try to be gentle to avoid hurting anyone. They are very sensitive to conflict, and cannot tolerate it very well. Situations which are charged with conflict may drive the normally peaceful INFJ into a state of agitation or charged anger. They may tend to internalize conflict into their bodies, and experience health problems when under a lot of stress.

Because the INFJ has such strong intuitive capabilities, they trust their own instincts above all else. This may result in an INFJ stubborness and tendency to ignore other people's opinions. They believe that they're right. On the other hand, INFJ is a perfectionist who doubts that they are living up to their full potential. INFJs are rarely at complete peace with themselves - there's always something else they should be doing to improve themselves and the world around them. They believe in constant growth, and don't often take time to revel in their accomplishments. They have strong value systems, and need to live their lives in accordance with what they feel is right. In deference to the Feeling aspect of their personalities, INFJs are in some ways gentle and easy going. Conversely, they have very high expectations of themselves, and frequently of their families. They don't believe in compromising their ideals.

INFJ is a natural nurturer; patient, devoted and protective. They make loving parents and usually have strong bonds with their offspring. They have high expectations of their children, and push them to be the best that they can be. This can sometimes manifest itself in the INFJ being hard-nosed and stubborn. But generally, children of an INFJ get devoted and sincere parental guidance, combined with deep caring.

In the workplace, the INFJ usually shows up in areas where they can be creative and somewhat independent. They have a natural affinity for art, and many excel in the sciences, where they make use of their intuition. INFJs can also be found in service-oriented professions. They are not good at dealing with minutia or very detailed tasks. The INFJ will either avoid such things, or else go to the other extreme and become enveloped in the details to the extent that they can no longer see the big picture. An INFJ who has gone the route of becoming meticulous about details may be highly critical of other individuals who are not.

The INFJ individual is gifted in ways that other types are not. Life is not necessarily easy for the INFJ, but they are capable of great depth of feeling and personal achievement.

INFJ Relationships

INFJs are warm and affirming people who are usually also deep and complex. They're likely to seek out and promote relationships that are intense and meaningful. They tend to be perfectionists, and are always striving for the Ultimate Relationship. For the most part, this is a positive feature, but sometimes works against the INFJ if they fall into the habit of moving from relationship to relationship, always in search of a more perfect partner. In general, the INFJ is a deeply warm and caring person who is highly invested in the health of their close relationships, and puts forth a lot of effort to make them positive. They are valued by those close to them for these special qualities. They seek long-term, lifelong relationships, although they don't always find them.

INFJ Strengths
Warm and affirming by nature
Dedicated to achieving the ultimate relationship
Sensitive and concerned for others' feelings
Usually have good communication skills, especially written
Take their commitments very seriously, and seek lifelong relationships
Have very high expectations for themselves and others (both a strength and weakness)
Good listeners
Are able to move on after a relationship has ended (once they're sure it's over)

INFJ Weaknesses
Tendency to hold back part of themselves
Not good with money or practical day-to-day life necessities
Extreme dislike of conflict and criticism
Have very high expectations for themselves and others (both a strength and weakness)
Have difficulty leaving a bad relationship

INFJs as Lovers
"To love means to open ourselves to the negative as well as the positive - to grief, sorrow, and disappointment as well as to joy, fulfillment, and an intensity of consciousness we did not know was possible before." -- Rollo May

INFJs are warm, considerate partners who feel great depth of love for their partners. They enjoy showing this love, and want to receive affirmation back from their mates.

They are perfectionists, constantly striving to achieve the Perfect Relationship. This can sometimes be frustrating to their mates, who may feel put upon by the INFJs demanding perfectionism. However, it may also be greatly appreciated, because it indicates a sincere commitment to the relationship, and a depth of caring which is not usually present in other types.

Sexually, INFJs view intimacy as a nearly spiritual experience. They embrace the opportunity to bond heart and soul with their mates. As service-oriented individuals, it's very important to them that their mates are happy. Intimacy is an opportunity for the INFJ to selflessly give their love, and experience it in a tangible way.

Although two well-developed individuals of any type can enjoy a healthy relationship, INFJ's natural partner is the ENTP, or the ENFP. INFJ's dominant function of Introverted Intuition is best matched with a personality type that is dominated by Extraverted Intuition. How did we arrive at this?

INFJs as Parents
"You are the bows from which your children as living arrows are sent forth...Let your bending in the archer's hand be for gladness;For even as He loves the arrow that flies, so He loves also the bow that is stable." -- Kahlil Gibran

INFJs usually make warm and caring parents. Their goal is to help their children become adults who know the difference between right and wrong, and who are independent, growth-oriented individuals.

Along the path to that goal they are generally very warm and caring, and are likely to treat their children as individuals who have a voice in family decisions. They want their children to be able to think for themselves, and make the right decisions. They also can be quite demanding on their children, and may have very high expectations for their behavior. Although they are generally soft-spoken and gentle, they may become stubborn and sharp-tongued at times when their expectations aren't met, or when under a lot of stress.

INFJs take their parenting role with ultimate seriousness. They will make sacrifices for the sake of their children without a second thought, and without remorse. Passing on their values to their children is a serious priority in their lives. Children of INFJs remember their parents fondly as warm, patient, and inspirational.

INFJs as Friends
Although the INFJ is likely to put friends behind their God and their families in terms of importance, they do value their friendships. As idealists who have strong value systems, INFJs seek authenticity and depth in their close relationships, and especially value people who can see and appreciate the INFJ for who they are and what they stand for.

The INFJ is likely to spend a lot of time socialing with family members. If they are religious, they probably are social with members of their religious community. After that, the INFJ may have friends represented from any of the personality types. They are usually extremely intuitive individuals, who will have no patience for anyone they feel is dishonest or corrupt. They'll have no interest in being around these kinds of people.

All kinds of people are drawn towards the INFJ. They are usually quite popular, although they may be unaware of it themselves, because they don't place a lot of importance on it.
The INFJ is valued by their close friends for their warmth and consideration, their new and interesting ways of looking at things, and for their ability to inspire and motivate others to be the best that they can be. genuine article that they are.

Life @ work

Finalli after so long decided to come online to blog again haa... working life can be tiring, and makes me lazy to blog...

weekends are precious, and also weekday nights, but den normalli after work will be so tired le, will be reluctant to go out and stay out... just wan to go home and relax in front of the TV.. haa since PA started, i finalli got more time to watch TV, cos too tired to go tuition at night and also too tired to run outside haa....

but last week was quite a week cos met up with quite a few grps of ppl... Tuesday was cousin ah qi's wedding dinner.. the dinner was quite cool haa.. with alot of pics, maybe some day i can upload a few here... wed was exco meeting... thurs met up with NTU school mates to share our experience in PA haha... funny and interesting stuffs... friday was with AFTH comm... saturday and sunday was also bz with tuition, minyan bday, grandpa house etc etc...

Realli not enough time when u are working.. actualli i wouldnt mind working if the pay is less miserable haa... one good thing when ur working is that u make better use of ur time ba i guess...

Internship realli expose me to many things... it's kinda like a risk-free exposure, cos u don realli have to worry much about your work performance, office politics, and yet get to experience it all...

at the end of the day, i still think that wadever u do, just be answerable for ur actions and be above board about it, things shouldnt go too off.. of course need to top it up with some PR skills la wahhaha... it helps it all!

today was on a bus and this mummy brought her little kindergarten daughter on to the bus.. it was crowded and there was no seat, so i decided to offer mine... haa the gal was cute... the mum was grateful.. and she spoke at quite a decibal to her young charge.. " Say thank you UNCLE" and the little innocent gal repeated just as loud word for word...

i was like .... and immediately corrected the mum... NO la kor kor can le ... hahah much to my own amusement... i don think i look old right? do i?

阿伟人生大道理。。。

欲速则不达 - 意思是说主观性急图快,违背了客观规律,反而达不到目的。对于“一万年太久,只争朝夕”的人来说,最不容易接受这个劝导。然而无数事实证明,“欲速则不达”是一个颠扑不破的道理。

"He that can have Patience, can have what he will" - Benjamin Franklin

Well i think this is something that i must always drill into my brain... Contrary to what some people i know tells me, i'm not someone who is very patient... Perhaps it depends on the kinda matters on hand, sometimes i appear to be someone who is very patient because i can have relatively high tolerance level for certain things, perhaps that creates the false image... or maybe there is just two sides of me...

i can be especially impatient to things that matters to me.. things that i want to succeed in... guess this is because i'm a result-oriented person... i always wanna see results and achievements.. haiz but i think this character of mine can really be my 绊脚石。。。

Alot of things cannot be achieved overnight, it takes patience, time, to build on... Just like planting a plant.. they wouldnt blossom overnight... sometimes people just make mistakes and learn things the hard way, but at least people learn... it will be bad if given the same situation and the same mistake is being committed again...

"The leopard never changes its spot", 狗改不了吃屎。。。

Well i think this really applies to some people some situation... However sometimes maybe its not the leopard never changes its spot.. just that it needs more time ba... (我想,白发魔女的头发是不可能在一夜之间变白的。。 哈哈) i feel that a person's character is being moulded since day one that he or she is borned into the world... every single little thing that he or she experience moulds him or her in a way... and this moulding continues through out the lifetime after each experience...

A child cries when his candy drops on the floor... next time he will learn to be more careful when he is having his candy and not be so careless.. if someone makes a mistake and feel the pain, i think he or she will wanna change and avoid making the same mistakes again...

Therefore i would want to 推翻 this saying of "The leopard never changes its spot", 狗改不了吃屎。。。 ! haha... yea its easy to say, hopefully slowly i will learn... maybe doing gardening and planting helps in a way to cultivate patience hah...

ya and sometimes the more eager you want to achieve or get something, the harder it seems...

谋事在人,成事在天。。。 有时还得看天意。。。。

我想。。。 最终不管做什么事,带着一个平常心去做最好吧!可是说的简单吗。。。 做起来,是需要放很多的 effort 的!哈哈。。。

NEW Canteen A food court.. good or bad...

Just had my lunch at the new foodcourt at canteen A!

Ambience:
Just like any other food court... too commercialize... but there is aircon, and smells a little like canteen 2 haa good for a hot day, but i would prefer canteen A on a cold and windy day...

Price:
Slightly more ex than canteen A in terms of food... about 30 to 50 cents more ex per dish... expected since its airconditioned and newer... inflation is like never before these days... But i think the drinks are more ex den the canteen A kinda... heard that ribena is 70c...

Food:
Seen and tried some food.. not up to my high perfectionist expectations so far haha... although the display looks impressive but many of the food is still no available, seems like its there just to fill up spaces....

Tried hor fun from mini wok stall, taste not bad, but there is not much ingredients... only sotong and cabbage and a few peices of fried fish... don realli think think that the fried fish goes v well with hor fun.. and the sotong is not QQ at all. its soft and "fen fen" one.. surely its not fresh, i spitted it out and never touch it after...

Wei zheng tried mixed rice from one of the stalls and complained that the rice is too hard... brocolli is hard also.. maybe he old le, den his teeth no strength??? wahhaha although he says that his fried chicken fillet is not bad...

beside me some ppl bought western.. the first word he told his friend when he reach the table is " cui" need i say anymore? although the outlook looks better than the one on styrofoam plates in canteen A currently, but i think maybe the price is not worthy enough... or are we expecting too much...

On the other side of me is a malay guy eating tissue prata! looks impressive... he mentioned it's $1.30 per piece... perhaps a bit pricy? and how can ur stomach get filled by eating tissue?? haha...

there are many other stalls to try, until then i still prefer the old canteen A hahaa...

Oh ya... there are alot of "chinese" workers in the food court... this morning i went to the old canteen A drink stall to buy my usual coffee and chatted with the red color tee shirt aunite(apparently they have a dress code) for awhile.. haa she is chatty and says that she is out of job le... her boss got another canteen in hall 9... haha, but she got no more jobs... she mentioned that her last day is on the 29th April.. ask me to go there say goodbye to her on the last day hahah happens to be my last day of exams as well!

will i pass by canteen A on the 29th? haha see how la, but i will keep the memories of canteen A.. haha ppl if u all wan please go say hi to her hahah she will appreciate!

Remember this song?

Que Sera Sera,

When I was just a little girl

I asked my mother, what will I be

Will I be pretty, will I be rich

Here's what she said to me.

Que Sera, Sera,

Whatever will be, will be

The future's not ours, to see

Que Sera, Sera

What will be, will be.

When I was young, I fell in love

I asked my sweetheart what lies ahead

Will we have rainbows, day after day

Here's what my sweetheart said.

Que Sera, Sera,Whatever will be, will be

The future's not ours, to see

Que Sera, Sera

What will be, will be.

Now I have children of my own

They ask their mother, what will I be

Will I be handsome, will I be rich

I tell them tenderly.

Que Sera, Sera,

Whatever will be, will be

The future's not ours, to see

Que Sera, Sera

What will be, will be.



==> Maybe it's because i really hope that there will be some one who will be able to answer my question....

人因梦想而伟大.. a man without dreams is a man without a life.

the above title is a quote from one of my good friend's blog... well well well, i think it is very true, just that i think i haven reach his stage yet whereby i really have a very clear idea on what i wanna do and achieve in life. i think i wouldnt know until i really step out to the working place and experience it myself life out there...

i guess this coming Attachment in May will surely be an eye opener for me, and hopefully i will have a more defined vision after that.

even though i may not have something very defined now, but i think it will be really good if my future partner can share the same dream and vision with me. Or i can share the same dreams and vision with her whereby we can really work towards that together and help each other out along the way and also achieve what we want to achieve together. that will be so good...

HJ has her dream of opening her own pre-school centre, and i think that it is really a good and feasible idea! and i have promised i will be her first investor and partner in the business! haa, well i think that is really a kinda goal that i can work towards seriously. And i love small children! they are so cute, innocent and lovable... had a great experience raising funds for Chen Su Lan Methodist Children's Home recently and it only strengthened my love for the kids!

Jia you huh HJ i will be waiting for the day to come!

end of march still got AA202 boardroom meeting cum report to submit, plus AA201 analysis of Financial statement report. please tell me there are 10 weeks in March !!! damn it... Next week got another comms group presentation. 15% is it? i also not sure... they are squeezing us dry...


i'm "proud" to say i have done no single tutorials this sem for all my 4 cores subjects... luckily for IT i got Jun an's powerful last sem tutorials.. hope it will help me when the time comes to prepare for exams... Luckily for AA201 NEJ goes thru the lesson well... Luckil for AA202 i got ah ping's some short summaries... i really hope things will turn out well eventually...


one of my friend says, aiya alright one la, every time u turn out to have quite okie or good results eventually... hmm i dunnoe... haha, don wan to appear to be someone who always complain about not going to do well but eventually do well those kinda... but i just really feel insecure ba.... anyway its for me to rant here onli... ranting doesnt help in pulling up grades!
haa so i shall really work hard soon... provided i can finish the projects... and also AFTH administrative stuffs... plus committments to CAC...

Wad a weekend!


Friday afternoon after project at Bishan, went down to Marina square 爱琴海民歌餐厅 to have dinner and chill with m friends... not bad la i thought the singers were good and entertaining.. anyway they are not professionals also la, so sometimes abit here and there not to our expectations still okie ba i suppose....


Although we wanted to catch up there, but den the music was kinda loud for us to talk, so after that we proceeded to Holland Village, Tapas Wine Bistro.. haa, Hoegarden with orange is nice! worth trying... Maybe beer lovers would think that it don taste like beer anymore, but i think i prefer the sweeter taste that the orange adds to it... not as bitter, well it's just my preference...

hmm we talked about stuffs at the wine bistro, too bad the kitchen was already closed by then, SA said that the food there was great, no chance to try it out, so i think we will be back again one day to try out the food! In the end we left at about 1 plus... cos tml morning still need to go ZOO, no choice, otherwise i sure cant wake up... ( I didnt ordered any alcoholic drinks as i'm driving haha just tried out a few sips of their drinks..)

And earli in the SAT morning i went to zoo with Yee hwee and Shi Tong... quite surprised the zoo is actually quite pack with ppl... but its quite nice and interesting la, just that its very big... walk until my legs very suan hahah.... too old for such things le maybe...




The recce was actually quite a short one, we started at about 1030 and ended at around 1pm... think we never dwelled for v long at each station ba, thats why... cos i got another appointment to go to! haa

MAHJONG session with KX, ZR And Chris... haa i was a little late la, and in the end we onli played for 1.5 rounds onli... sorry about it, not cos i'm late but cos i keep diao zhing haa... hmm i think lady luck was with me ba, den i kept winning although not in a big amount each time, but it caused the game to drag on... In the end KX AND LT gotta go catch their movie, and i gotta go ah gong hse for dinner le, so we stopped at 630 pm...

After which went ah gong hse for dinner haa, quite a sumptous dinner at ah gong hse cos he striked 4d during the CNY one of the days haa.. although not super alot, but i think its a good excuse to pull everyone in the family together for dinner le... hmm so we left at around 1000pm...

thinking that's the end of my saturday? haa nope!

haa reached home at around 1030, and super tired le after so many things... so took a quite nap until 1130, before leaving home again for Alvin's house in sembawang.. haa its the 2602 gang this time.. my AJC mates... hmm realli been some time since i went his house le, cos i didnt realised that the old sembawang shopping centre has been totally tored down le! i have been looking for the landmark, and i got lost cos i cant find it... that spells how long since i went his house... later i found out that its about 1.5 yrs ago le.. wah...

haa as usual la, at alvin house, watch soccer and play MJ... lost this time round but its okie la, i don realli like to be always winning... when u win some, u lose something else.. thats what i always think...

We lasted until 6 am... we talked ba and cooked maggi mee, milo, bread to eat haa, we realli treated alvin's house like our own... there was onli 4 of us, me alvin, guo xiang and jia rong.. Guo xiang has always been the more enthu one, in organising gatherings like this, kudos to him... always trying to pull ppl.. sometimes its not i don wan to go ba, realli cos too bz and too far le... ya who ask me a jurong west guy go study in Ang Mo Kio... my JC friends all live in AMK area and Seng kang... super far...

yea reach home this morning at about 11 am.. den i slept until 5 pm.. haa there goes my sunday... did a bit of gardening after that... one of my plants died... worms attacked!

the root was attacked by worms and it rottened... so no choice i gotta do an operation! ahaa i cut it up and replanted the healthy parts into smaller pots.. haa nw it look better.. hopefully they will survive and blossom....
