I didn't really have much inspiration to blog these few days. But now, I think it has finally returned to my side. I read Ishy aka Meena's blog already. I agree, there's some truth in it. But, it's a very controversial topic. Why or Do guys only go for girl's who are beauty on the outside? I have just began reading my latest addition to my collection of books - "The Art of Intimacy; The Pleasure of Passion", and this should be able to address the latter.
All of us go to school. What's the purpose behind it? To learn something, to gain knowledge and to broaden our horizons. All that, are all theory based and we never knew how to deal with affairs of the heart based on those theories we learnt in school. Too bad, we were never educated in the School of Intimacy and it was never part of the curriculum that we were taught to deal with feelings. Back to the point, it's quite true to a certain extent that most guys usually go for girls who has beauty, fairness, and, everything that can be seen with the eyes. Most people at our age only know how to see with the eyes, not the heart. It's saddening though; but I guess, it's also a societal problem. With the rising number of divorce rates; same analogy, people are breaking up only after marriage or getting together when their significant half has fully revealed his/her character. Most people look for partners to complement themselves, for instance, a woman who is a shy and poor in communicating would look for a guy who is outgoing and good in inter-personal skills. The woman tries to make up for her deficit by looking for a partner who has the qualities she does not have. As time passes, the couple being together, would actually "accquire" the opposite qualities. She, now being "influenced" by her partner, becomes outgoing and an extrovert. This is where "like poles" of a magnet start to repel.
Many youngsters nowadays have claimed to find their significant halves and proclaim that their halves are the one-in-a-million, they would love each other forever, they would love each other till the end of time, blah blah blah. Some relationships would stay, some would just be gone with the wind. Regardless of how long the couple have been in the relationship together. Why did all that happen? Simple.
Every thing at this point in time are all just "Love @ first sight". When those guys see a better "Second Sight"; time change, things also change. It's a sad thing. Yes, there is no hard and fast rule that Love is only extended to those who are above 21 or whatsoever. But at least, people should be dealing with affairs of the heart using the heart! It's okay to look, but before you get yourself involved, be sure of what you are doing. Are you in it because you truly love your other half; both of you are not together just to fill the void in your hearts?
Think. Reflect. Decide.

Love is a constellation of emotions and experiences related to a sense of strong affection or profound oneness.The meaning of love varies relative to context. Romantic love is seen as an ineffable feeling of intense attraction shared in passionate or intimate attraction and intimate interpersonal and sexual relationships. Though often linked to personal relations, love is often given a wider connection, a love of humanity, of nature, with life itself, or a oneness with the universe, a universal love or karma. Love can also be construed as Platonic love, religious love, familial love, and, more casually, great affection for anything considered strongly pleasurable, desirable, or preferred, to include activities and foods.
I don't know why, I just have this feeling of wanting to be in a relationship and have a taste of falling in Love all over again. That feeling, so sacred, so comforting, so innocent, yet exciting for all to behold! But, every time I look back at the past - those heartbreaks, the loneliness, that feeling of loss and desolation, would always serve as a reminder to me. Does every relationship have to end that way? Yes, some answers cannot be proven by Science; but surely, Providence would drop some hints, wouldn't he? Hey, come off it, my expectations are not that high, right? It's just the basic qualities every girl in this universe would have. Simple as ABC.
All I want is just a simple feeling of Love; I do not need those which must be as colourful and exciting as fireworks, nor must it be those that would make people green with envy. Afterall, it's the feeling between a couple that make miracles!
"The voice of our soul informs us that we should be bathed in the splendor and warmth of loving arms and gentle caresses. We long for the bliss of unconditional love and we fantasize about the ecstasy of deep intimacy and exquisite passion derived from within. We want to share our lives with another who loves us beyond limits; yet expecting nothing in return. This is how life was supposed to be... ... But, we settled for far much less, and, we suffer for it. It need not be this way. The problem lies in the fact that we were never schooled in the Art of Love and Passion. The solutions awaits us if we only know where to look for them."
I thought, how wonderful would this world be if there are, No Separations, No Heartbreaks, No Hurtful feelings, etc... ...

School's from 9 to 2 today. Cell tech was okay; MBT was boring and draggy, as usual; HBD was the noobest! Reproductive system! What the mama la~ A repeat for Biology in secondary school again! But of course, some of it went unremembered so... ... It'd be good if there could be practical on this topic huh?! =DDD
Went to Student Affairs to endorse CCA points again. God darn it! There were so many entries la! Also, this time there isn't a joker who comes and click on every event! Oh ya, I just realised, under SCL, NO ONE has gotten their CCA points for their service to the school! (esp Class Chairpersons, NDP, etc) Those under SCLC already has been endorsed! THIS IS WHAT I CALL EFFICIENT! NOOB ASS! hahas.
Okay, I am tired. That's all for today. Gonna sleep and go HACCP-ing after that...

Your Hidden Talent - The Mass Communicator
You have a cheerful personality and you are a naturally kind person. Your hidden talent isn't really that hidden at all: you shine among a crowd. You would make an ideal news announcer, flight attendant or model - any position that would give you an opportunity to deal with plenty of people. A tip for you is to avoid getting too deeply involved in others' personal lives - otherwise you might find yourself constantly being asked for help.
Your house tells the world that you ought to be a leader. You are good at making friends and when the joyful moment arrives, you make the most out of it. You love your house and family. You are a gifted artist as well. Once you have a problem, you need a friend with you. You are an ambitious person. You will avoid being alone and seek the company of others whenever possible. You love excitement and create it wherever you go. You always have plans on your mind. This might cause a lot of stress if things don't go the way you expect. You have a strong personality and you like to command, influence and control people. You added a flower into your drawing. The flower signifies that you long for love. We also see that you are sensuous, sexual, and privately passionate. You are self-confident and happy with your life.
The Eating Test
You are generally a calm person. You get excited when your favorite band is in town, when you are going on a date with your partner or when you and your friends are dancing. Your friends mean everything to you. You hate it when the summer is over.
You like art, and some poetry. You can throw a party, or help a friend put one together. You usually have no trouble finding dates, but you occasionally hit a dry spell. You like the outdoors, usually, and rainy weather doesn't bother you. You sometimes get jealous of people who are smarter or better looking than you, but you wouldn't hold it against them if you got to know them. You are on good terms with your parents, even though they annoy you once in a while. People tend to think you are reliable and trustworthy. You like animals.
Are you still thinking about your ex?
You have managed to sweep away any feelings you have left for your ex. You are fully recovered and you don't dwell in anguish over the memories of your times together. You are completely and happily in love with your current boyfriend/girlfriend. Although you may occasionally mention the name of past boyfriends/girlfriend, it will simply be because it relates to what you are talking about. The present moment is what you are interested in.
It's not as accurate as the previous ones.. But there is still SOME truth to it. Can read; not to believe.! lols. I AM BROKE!~

HEY PEOPLE! TAKE MY TEST! 80% AND ABOVE GOT PRIZE! HAHAS... After so much personality tests, which is the trend now in SCL, it's time to reflect! lols
What's your personality love style?
You desire a love that will last forever. You are quite serious about finding this type of love, and that's why you think carefully about the men that you meet before deciding whether you could really love them. You don't just develop a crush on someone overnight: you look at a person's personality and other aspects of their life before deciding to form an attachment. If a guy doesn't meet your expectations, you would rather be alone. Your love has to be perfect. Be careful though, you could be missing out on some worthy relationships because your standards are so high.
What kind of person are you?
You are an outgoing and cheerful person. Although you get frustrated sometimes, you get through hard times easily and are joyful again.Your friendly personality makes you attractive in the eyes of the opposite sex, but this makes your spouse feel insecure. Your lack of emotion is a disadvantage, but your candor has made you popular.Friends of your gender find it hard to understand you because of your innocent thinking. But this is your advantage as it attracts members of the opposite sex who have the same personality as you.
Love Test
When it comes to love, you fall in love very quickly and easily. You give 100% to your relationship and expect to receive 0% in return. If there is a problem in your relationship, it's difficult for you to admit it. You need help from third parties. You need lots of reassurance in your relationship. You'd like to see your loved one every day, if possible. You accept your loved one the way they are. You don't expect him or her to change for you.
When you love someone, you don't tend to stay in love for a long time.
I think the rest is true except the last sentence la!! WTH!
Thursday, July 19, 2007
Looks like I am one of the trendsetters in SCL to start all the Blog-Personality entries and all. Now so many people are doing it (even the year 1s) and also agree on the results generated!
Now, How to determine if those personality tests are real?
1. Get it from reputable sites.
2. Compare the tests of the same type and its results
3. Make it more credible when your peers agrees with it!
THAT'S IT! I think that was all the tests that I could find over the net. The rest were all like crap unlike these few that I have done and returned results of truth. =D
All right, I have one last entry on Blog-Personality - afterwhich, until next time when I can find better ones. hahas. HACCP!

Your Working Style
You use your thinking to run as much of the world as may be yours to run. You like to organize projects and then act to get things done. Reliance on thinking makes you logical, analytical, objectively critical, and not likely to be convinced by anything but reasoning. You tend to focus on the job, not the people behind the job.
You like to organize facts, situations, and operations related to a project, and make a systematic effort to reach their objectives on schedule. You have little patience with confusion or inefficiency, and can be tough when the situation calls for toughness.
You think conduct should be ruled by logic, and govern their own behavior accordingly. You live by a definite set of rules that embody your basic judgments about the world. Any change in your ways requires a deliberate change in your rules.
You are more interest in seeing present realities than future possibilities. This makes you matter-of-fact, practical, realistic, and concerned with the here-and-now. You use past experience to help you solve problems and want to be sure that ideas, plans, and decisions are based on solid fact.
You like jobs where the results of your work are immediate, visible, and tangible. You have a natural bent for business, industry, production, and construction. You enjoy administration, where you can set goals, make decisions, and give the necessary orders. Getting things done is your strong suit.
You run the risk of deciding too quickly before you have fully exanimate the situation. You need to stop and listen to the other person's viewpoint, especially with people who are not in a position to talk back. This is seldom easy for you, but if you do not take time to understand, you may judge too quickly, without facts or enough regard for what other people think or feel.
You may need to work at taking feeling values into account. You may rely on much on your logical approach that you overlook feeling values-- what you care about and what other people care about.
If feeling values are ignored too much, you may build up pressure and find expression in inappropriate ways. Although you are naturally good at seeing what is illogical and inconsistent, you may need to develop the art of appreciation. One positive way to exercise your feeling is to appreciate other people's merits and ideas.
Another test which I found very true! I seriously think that all these tests were set by professionals! lols. - http://www.quizbox.com/personality/test47.aspx

Yesterday was quite a day!
Had SCL Outing to Clarke Quay; buffet @ Riverwalk Tandoor. God! We were supposed to be at the restaurant at 6.30pm but we arrived only at around 7! That fellow kept saying that the restaurant is easy to locate, just opposite The Central. So, the whole of Clarke Quay was opposite The Central! How on Earth to find! Ended going around the whole of the Quay before actually finding that place! duh! Exercise before eating yea?! What's more, that guy's accent far exceeds my ability to listen and comprehend! Imagine 15 noobs walking around Clarke Quay just to find one restaurant? Everyone was like looking at us la! "These people must have really been deprived from town for long!" The food there is quite good and the price was also quite reasonable. $16/pax and with about 15 types of food being served. VALUE FOR MONEY!
After that, all of us took a walk down to the Supreme Court (where the NKF Gold-Tap kid often frequent) and talked there until around 10+. The best thing: Milan waved to a group of unsung heroes, with only weird glances being returned! lols.
Was really fun going out with those peeps la! THERE'S GONNA BE MORE TO COME! DEFINITELY!
Went back to school before the outing to follow up on the HACCP project. Stayed there till about 3.30pm then we went to Raffles Place to buy some prezzies. Things there are of no range! =D

OMG! Tell me that I ain't falling for her! HELP! I never thought it was possible though. I am seeing her everyday; I have only regarded her as a normal friend. Once ever so quiet, so demure, so feminine, things took a turn when we communicated more often! The more I see her, the more I feel so attracted to her!
How did this all happen? I am not too sure myself. But there's one thing that I am very sure of - it's infatuation at this every point in time. I seriously hope it won't progress any further than this. I just hope that all this would just be gone with the wind. She is just too perfect; she would be every guy's dream... Serious...
Today was a long day in school. From 10 to 6! woots! And, ABC's getting more difficult; more boring and more irritating! So many different terms, concepts, etc. Marketing was exceptionally boring today - because I felt so lethargic and my mind just shut off when she started. duh~ Cell Tech's was a bit confusing but I managed to comprehend the back part of it. In short, a long and tiring day!

Congratulations to me! I have finally compiled the full document "My personal story - Sentiments of Love" after 3 years. The essay isn't a long one; but I just didn't have the time to complete it. It wasn't easy doing so. Because every time I had to reminisce, my feelings would all be distorted and my mood would not be very good for the day. I was supposed to publish it yesterday, 07/07/07, but due to technical errors on the server, I only managed to upload it this morning!
Yesterday was my Granduncle's birthday so all of us went down to his house to celebrate. Went to Four Leaves to get a "Chocolate Classico" cake before that. OMG! That cake was simply heavens! The chocolate fudge, the chocolate cream, the chocolate sponge cake in-between was fabulous! Dinner was take-aways from East Coast Lagoon. Food there was expensive, no doubt, but some of it were delicious. And the queues were damn long! Took more than 45 mins just to get 2 packets of satay-beehoon. WTH! BUT, I saw this damn cute eurasian girl la! She was around maybe 17-19 years old with her family too. hahas!

Yesterday was a total waste of time! God, I just wasted 3 hours of my precious time. I could have went home and watch TV, or continuing those funny personality tests on testeriffic.com. Class had ended at 3.30pm and we (wyd, yamon, meena and I) had to wait till 6 for Fang Cheng and Yi Tian. The 4 of us ended up in the library killing time doing personality tests instead. Wyd's result quite close to mine but some are way off the track; Meena's result was like OMG, Scored in things we never could; Yamon was like WTH, OMG! hahas...
WTH! I thought yesterday was supposedly arranged to be a meeting-cum-outing sort of thing. Ended up, it was only a dinner! =S
Met the rest of the ExCo at City Hall at 7pm. As usual, we had to wait for megastar to arrive at 8.30??!! The rest of the night was - DUH~
I have another project on hand - Industrial Microbiology HACCP Project. Sucks! Just 4 weeks to complete and there's so many criteria to be met!
Nothing much for today, except for the discussion with members on the HACCP project. That project was like a Business Administration cum Financial Planning cum Science Project! So many minute details, so many information process, so many intricate details! I seriously need to think about my career path in Life Sciences; which I personally don't think I am cut out for.

haha! Meena's blog got flagged! The security message showed, "The user has violated some of Blogger's Terms of Conditions..." I was laughing my ass off la! Yesterday, we (Milan, Meena and I) were just talking about who the culprit was. Just as I said, the most suspicious is... lol.
Anyway, next wednesday would be SCL ExCo-Committee Members dinner outing. We initially planned to visit Riverside Tandoor but since it was non-halal, things had to be changed. Now contemplating between Sakura and Magic Wok. Frankly, Sakura sucks! I went there once, that was my first and last time. The service is bad, the food is not so fresh, the ambience.. God Damn it! So rowdy and crowded. My mum said Riverside Tandoor is very good. Excellent Service, Great Food, Great ambience and Reasonable pricing. I shall make an attempt to go and try it out one day.
VISA Platinum's Concierge is really efficient. This was the first time I am engaging their services. Or should I say, complementary services? Since it was a headache initially to find places which served halal-indian buffet, I thought, why let the service be idle! "Criteria Match: Indial Rst. Halal, Buffet. Less than $20/pax. Non-smoking environment. Suitable for group events." "Date / Time: 11/7/07; 7pm". They replied, acknowledging receipt of my request and started actions to follow-up immediately! This is what I call quality service!
I am thrifty person. I am not one who spends money like water. I have less than $10 in my wallet at any one time. BUT when it comes to buying things, I make sure I buy quality things. And it's usually the expensive stuff. E.g. Ice-Cream. I don't usually buy ice-cream from any places. I eat quality stuffs like New Zealand's All-Natural, Venezia and Ben and Jerry's. I mean, it's really no point spending money on stuff which are of low quality right?

Non-smoking environment. Suitable for group events." "Date / Time: 11/7/07; 7pm". They replied, acknowledging receipt of my request and started actions to follow-up immediately! This is what I call quality service!
I am thrifty person. I am not one who spends money like water. I have less than $10 in my wallet at any one time. BUT when it comes to buying things, I make sure I buy quality things. And it's usually the expensive stuff. E.g. Ice-Cream. I don't usually buy ice-cream from any places. I eat quality stuffs like New Zealand's All-Natural, Venezia and Ben and Jerry's. I mean, it's really no point spending money on stuff which are of low quality right?

"Love Me" had indeed touched my heart. Not only that song, but many others, "Right Here Waiting", "Nothing's gonna change my Love for you", "I can't play the songs", "The one that you Love", many others - that we have listened together and reflected upon.
Why did I choose to post "Love Me" lyrics instead of the rest? No bias reason; but rather, it's something inspirational and emotional. As I wrote "The Sentiments of Love", which I began long ago and only resumed recently, many different kinds of feelings started to pour in. I have lost two most important people in my Life. They entered, and Left; without erasing the memories and footprints they left in me.
I really do not want to let anyone down. That's the reason why I chosed to remain where I am, what I am, today. I am so afraid history would repeat by itself, the heart-breaking process and experiencing the emotional changes again. I swore, until I really meet my true significant half, I will fully concentrate on my academics and career first.
Until my next entry, I will continue writing my own Life...

I read a note my grandma wrote back in nineteen twenty-three. Grandpa kept it in his coat, and he showed it once to me. He said,"Boy, you might not understand, but a long, long time ago, Grandma's daddy didn't like me none, but I loved your Grandma so."
We had this crazy plan to meet and run away together.Get married in the first town we came to, and live forever. But nailed to the tree where we were supposed to meet, instead. Of her, I found this letter, and this is what it said, "If you get there before I do, don't give up on me. I'll meet you when my chores are through; I don't know how long I'll be. But I'm not gonna let you down, darling wait and see. And between now and then, till I see you again, I'll be loving you. Love, me."
I read those words just hours before my Grandma passed away. In the doorway of a church where me and Grandpa stopped to pray. I know I'd never seen him cry in all my fifteen years; But as he said these words to her, his eyes filled up with tears.
If you get there before I do, don't give up on me. I'll meet you when my chores are through; I don't know how long I'll be. But I'm not gonna let you down, darling wait and see. And between now and then, till I see you again, I'll be loving you. Love, me. Between now and then, till I see you again, I'll be loving you. Love, me...
This song - Love Me by Collin Raye was introduced to me by one of my classmates in Secondary 3. I must say, all the songs that I hear, belongs to the Sentimental and Love genre. I just simply cannot tolerate those songs which KPKB! =D
All the songs that I have spoke about, be it in Chinese or English, all left a very deep footprint in my Life. And, I believe, it would definitely stay till the end of my Life too. Why? The reason is simple - The person who got me acquainted with the songs, have once been part of my Life. They (2 of them) became an integral part of my Life, and I have this sense of gratitude towards them. Till today, they were never once forgotten.

Blast It! Screw It! Both the NETS Commission Charge, GST hike and Common Test can jolly kiss my Posterior End for all I care!
Last week's common test - all had NOT gone well and in my way as expected. So many careless mistakes; and so many grey areas that was tested. Frankly, I don't think Singapore's education system is really that fantastic afterall. Singapore's perspective of success = Paper-Success. Unlike the western culture, experience, attitude would determine your aptitude.
Taking 6 module per semester isn't a joking matter. Why can't we have more hands-on projects like SBM? No common test, but have projects instead. And, EXAMS ARE NOT JUST WHAT YOU CAN REMEMBER; IT'S WHAT YOU CAN UNDERSTAND! So please, god damn it, STOP TESTING EVERYTHING THAT IS BASED ON MEMORY-WORK. Design those testscripts of yours like Marketing and/or AK's Industrial Micro! At least, there were case study and we must apply what we learn; not regurgitate all that was in the lecture (like HBD)!!!
HBD = Horribly Boring and Detestable!
MBT = Mind Blowing Topic (from Andrew =D)
MLS = Rawks my life la...
