societal pressure..
have you ever gotten angry or upset or disappointed or frustrated at a love one because of what other people think?
upset at him coz he does not have a job, or not earning as much as you, or wants to be a house husband and take care of the kids, or business is not doing too well... even though he has been an extremely loving and caring partner otherwise... just coz it's expected (especially in asian society) that the man takes care of the lady?
upset at her for not bearing a child or a son, even though she wants to as much as you do, or even if you know for a fact that your chromosomes determine the gender, and even though she has been a wonderful wife otherwise... just coz your whole family expected her to do so?
disappointed at her for not having the 38-24-38 vital stats when you are good looking although you totally enjoyed her company just coz society expects a good looking guy to have a good looking girlfriend?
frustrated at yourself for not having a partner although you are having the time of your life being my yourself or just being with your friends just coz the whole wide world thinks you should have a partner in order to be "complete"? (dun worry... i'm dun feel it yet)
isn't it sad sometimes, how we would not be happy just coz other people expect us to not be happy? isn't it tiring how we sometimes try to prove to the whole wide world that we are really happy when everybody else thinks we are not? can we just say f*** everybody else, it does not matter what they think as long as we are happy? what if these "everybody else" we are important as well?

action, not talk only...
i think i get most ideas when i am busy busy busy... when i have no time to pursue the ideas, that's when they will pop up. when i have all the time in the world... *nothing*
and no matter how brilliant my ideas are, i'm sure there is somebody out there who would have thought of something similiar. i guess the difference between successful people and not-so-succesful people is ... (drumrolls..) "action"! the successful ones are just the ones who got off their butt and do something about those ideas, and follow through.
it's funny how most of us would spend the earlier, most energetic part of our lives executing other people's dreams...

got this fwd today...
An 80 year old man was sitting on the sofa in his house along with his 45 years old highly educated son.
Suddenly a crow perched on their window.The Father asked his Son, "What is this?"
The Son replied "It is a crow".
After a few minutes, the Father asked his Son the 2nd time, "What is this?"
The Son said "Father, I have just now told you "It's a crow".
After a little while, the old Father again asked his Son the 3rd time, What is this?
At this time some expression of irritation was felt in the Son's tone when he said to hisFather with a rebuff.."It's a crow, a crow".
A little after, the Father again asked his Son the 4th time, "What is this?"
This time the Son shouted at his Father,"Why do you keep asking me the same question again and again, althoughI have told you so many times 'IT IS A CROW'. Are you not able to understand this?"
A little later the Father went to his room and came back with an old tattered diary,which he had maintained since his Son was born. On opening a page, he asked his Son to read that page. When the son read it, the following words were written in the diary :-"Today my little son aged three was sitting with me on the sofa, when a crow wassitting on the window. My Son asked me 23 times what it was, and I replied to himall 23 times that it was a Crow. I hugged him lovingly each time he asked me thesame question again and again for 23 times.I did not at all feel irritated I rather felt affection for my innocent child".
While the little child asked him 23 times "What is this", the Father had felt no irritation inreplying to the same question all 23 times and When today the Father asked his Son thesame question just 4 times, the Son felt irritated and annoyed.
So.. If your parents attain old age, do not repulse them or look at them as a burden, but speak tothem a gracious word, be cool, obedient, humble And kind to them. Be considerate to your parents.
From today say this aloud,"I want to see my parents happy forever. They have cared for me ever since I was a littlechild.They have always showered their selfless love on me.They crossed all mountains and valleys without seeing the storm and heat to make me a person presentable in the society today".
p/s: i think dad was more patient with son because it was expected! (young children not expected to know stuff) but when it happens to dad, son is afraid... the person who used to teach, nurture and protect has changed! fear converted to anger maybe? but i suppose whatever the reason... there is no excuse... must be patient... kacang must not forget the kulit...

brilliant!!!
just read in the papers the other day... about one muhammad yunus. a nobel peace prize winner who truly deserves the prize.
what did he do? well, briefly, he give small loans out to the poor, to help them get out of poverty cycle. loans are mainly given out to women because "...in the families in which the women received the loans, the children were better cared for, the houses were better maintained... He found that women spent the money to improve their families' lives, while men often squandered it on luxuries or drugs". also because "...virtually all of the women repaid the loans, whereas men frequently fell behind in payments or defaulted...". this bank (Grameen Bank) has repayment rate of 98%!
the bank also follow up on borrowers. they hold training on banking procedures and dishes out financial advice. they further educate these borrowers on sanitation, nutrition, education and birth control. borrowers would also have to adhere to 16 principles which include educating their children, providing latrines, refusing to pay or accept dowries, etc. all these ensure the end of poverty cycle.
borrowers are organised into groups of five. the poorest two will be granted to loans first. if they do not default within a certain time frame, the others will receive their loans. peer pressure and group support plays an important role. weekly meetings are held to provide group therapy and support.
brilliant i say.... a brilliant man indeed to have thought of all these finer details. how's this for better distribution of wealth?

boobs and taugeh
for the record... this observation was made a couple of years back. but this topic came up again when a friend said "chinese girls seems to have bigger boobs nowadays!"...
NOT! not unless they are from Ipoh that is! ever noticed how ipoh girls (generally) have bigger boobs and fairer skin??
it's the taugehs (the short and fat and juicy taugehs, which another friend swears is attributable to the water in Ipoh!!)

chicken shits i dislike alot alot
i dislike very very much, people who are chicken shit... i think courage is a very important trait. one should be brave enough to go for what they want, one should be brave enough to confront a situation, one should be brave enough to own up to what one did, one should be brave enough to speak the truth, brave enough to face the consequences...
please slap me silly the next time you feel i have displayed traits of a coward...

enlightened... yet again
yean said ... "we should not let little things bother us; if we do, we'll just end up being angry bitter pricks"
true true...
he continues ... "we should let little things pass, but then again, don't let other ppl step all over u ler" ...
as teik lee always said, air yang tenang jangan disangka tiada buaya (calm water don't think don't have crocodiles). i suppose as time passes by, all of us would have mellowed down a little. we let the little things pass. but don't ever think to test our limits. letting little things pass and being forgiving are two separate things all together!

who the #$% do we think we are???
i think some of us are just die hard optimists. we like a person. we notice some flaws. and we decide that the person will change in time.
i think i speak with authority on this matter. you can never, ever, EVER change a person. nobody can do it, unless the person wants to change in the first place. i would also have to agree that intending to change another is unfair in the first place! one should love the other, flaws and all. if you don't like the flaws, then don't be with that person. simple, no?
rite, it's not that simple... somehow, we would want that very person. and we would like to think that the person would love us enough to change for us... sigh. what can i say? die hard optimists we are...

a wise friend (yes, i have alot of very wise friends) once told me, the fact that you have the chance to cross path is already a great thing.. afterall, there are billions and trillions of people in this world.. what are the chances that you would meet this person... and actually have something to say to this person...

when i am a millionaire...
when i become a millionaire... i will have a retirement home...
this home will be by the beach, have it's own field and farm.
in this home, old people will have a life... they will dance, swim, sing, date, get married, have sex??, online chats, work, play mahjong etc...
work? did i say work? yes... i did say work. i think working will help keep their mind active.
the initial bunch of old folks will have to be selected very carefully as they will be the ones to set the pace and to initiate the culture. the core needs of the home would need to be identified and if possible be fulfilled by the people in the home.
then their strengths will be identified and will be utilised to provide services to others, in exchange for funds to sustain the home.
then there will be branches in different countries... and they will have exchange programmes to enable travelling.
yay!!! happy old people with a life...

survey
did a survey earlier... i asked women of all ages... which guy would they choose?
option 1 : a guy who loves them more they love the guy, but lack drive and ambition
option 2 : a guy whom they love more than the guy love them, but very driven and ambitious
Conclusion :
1) women age 25 and below goes for option 2
2) women age 30 and above goes for option 1
3) women age 25 - 30 refuse to settle for either options. they want a guy who loves them more and yet are driven and ambitious...
noted that most married women advise to go for option 1... i suppose they should be the wiser ones...?

have u ever realised that people who pour their heart, soul and money into something that they believe in... are viewed as selfish until they succeed??
and when these ppl succeed, suddenly they are viewed as passionate??
isn't it weird how people withdraw support when one need it most... and volunteer it when everybody else is already doing so?

just do it?
have you ever done something just because you felt like doing it? did you regret it?
i think you'll hardly ever regret doing things that you do just cause you felt like doing it! i suppose life's too short for regrets... afterall nobody will know if the consequences are for better or for worse! unless there are two of yous, and yous were in the exact same circumstances, one does A and the other does B... but that will never happen.
so, i suppose regret should not even exist! even if they do, regrets are better than what ifs...
what if i had bought that dress...

isn't it funny how in alot of the times, the friends whom you'll call when you need help are not the ones whom you'll call when you wanna have fun?

SLR
it was in dec 2005 when i first held an SLR... a Nikon D70. took a few pictures which i thought was pretty darn good! nearly bought a Canon 350D in jan 2006... further inspired by pictures taken in Cara& Edwin's wedding and Teik Lee & Lena's wedding (www.thephotoz.com). now, i have a Canon 400D.
before every shot, i would have in my head how the picture would turn out. unfortunately, it's not turning out the was i had expected it to!!!!!! *sob*
it's fun though... i shall presevere!!! and by end of 2007, i'll be taking very nice pictures, capturing all the moments.. too! :)

the meaning of being classy...
what's the meaning of being classy? Does it depend on how expensive the person's clothes are? How good looking the person is? How much the person earns? If he/ she drives a porche? How he/ she speaks?
I think class simply means the person knows what say or do at any one time. some things need not be untrue to hurt. some truths need not be told.
then again, i'm for constructive feedback... so, it's perfectly fine to give constructive feedbacks if not in public... at an opportune moment.. :)

then again..
Then again... if you really really have to compare, then remember, it's not WHEN you start... it when you START!... there are some late bloomers out there... it's never too late for anything.
happiness
i've finally attained enlightenment! recipe for happiness/ contentment is.... *drumrolls*....
not comparing!!
do you realise that you can be happily going about your own life and then one day, you meet up with somebody you know... and that person is doing very well (career, family, love, finance, looks, etc)... then all of a sudden, you are unhappy... why? because you compared!
if the person is somebody you don't really know, the impact is not so great. if it's somebody you know... and it's a peer!!.... same age!!!... then die.. you'll be depressed the very next day!!
to overcome this, just don't compare! we can't really compare one person to another anyway... there is no two person on this earth which is exactly alike.

expectations
alot of relationships go wrong because of expectations... or rather expectation gap.
don't you think we tend to have higher expectations of people with whom we are close to? for instance, if you are in a relationship with this guy, your expectations of him will be higher than if you were not with him. i suppose this is normal coz you would be factoring him into your life. as in... ok, i will be with him for the rest of my life, he better be able to finance my shopping in Italy and my dinners in Paris with my best friend! but should you suddenly break up with this very same guy, it doesn't matter anymore, whether he has a career/ car/ house/ drive/ humour/ abs/ etc...
expectations also play a role in friendship maintenance. i remember a long long time ago... when we were in high school. we were in the same class for 5 long years. some have forged very close friendships. sadly, when we were forced to split up as some went to form 6 and some to college, some of these friendships disintegrated. these friendships could have been maintained if these friends had EXPECTED changes! had expected that... my good friend will find another good friend, won't be seeing him/ her everyday, won't be spending as much time together, won't be the first to know if she had a tiff with her stupid bf! if those changes were EXPECTED, then when these friends meet up, there would be no hard feelings. precious time would be spent catching up with each other instead of interrogation as to why we were not the first to know!!
i also remembered a time when i was "allowed" to be late for mamak sessions. that was when i was working like a dog in PwC and Prudential SA. my friends were definitely more forgiving than now. with my new job, i am expected to be on time! tardiness would not be tolerated. this, is also due to changes in expectations. when they had expected me to be late, it was forgivable..
so, i suppose key to a happy relationship would be to adjust one's expectations?
of course only to a tolerable level.... afterall, he must be able to finance those dinners in Paris!
