wun be here on fri, sat and sun.. cos i'll be at shangrila hotel doing the SLD yea.. quite an experience ba.. gd chance to learn sth yea! hahax.. a chance at being a reporter.. cool ba.. :)
kk, sth i figured tdy.. kinda a sales tactic tt i used on many customers b4.. to buy hampers cos of the good quality scallops which supposedly, many other ppl are buying.. HAHA.. so the many other ppl actually haven't bought the hamper yet, but will buy it if they fall for the trick.. because everyone else is buying, so it's better to buy.. thus i've just made the future into the present.. :D HAHA.. cool rite? maybe tt's y Jay says i might end up the top salesman.. HEHH..
alright, shall share it here.
Cognitive Dissonance.
you have A and B to choose, and you know that "B" has to be the right answer. However, the other people around you choose A. And when it comes to your turn, even though inside, you know that the answer is B, you answer with A. if a gap between people and their environment occurs, that is, if they experience dissonance, they begin to feel anxiety. by sympathizing with their surrounding, they attempt to dissolve this anxiety.
hahax.. the psychologist is the best salesman.. if he knows how to put his theory into practice.. HEHH.. yea, tt's all for sneaky sales lesson 101! Adios! :D

when inaction is an action in itself, and when not making a choice is a choice in itself, what will you do? kill the murderer who's about to murder someone, but hasn't, and so is equally innocent in the eyes of the law? or not kill him and allow the murder to take place, resulting in the loss of an innocent life?
either way, the bystander with the power to stop the crime is part of the crime itself. in my eyes, there is no law. there is only good and bad. so i'll choose the first option, even if i become a killer by law myself.
just some thoughts. don't read too much into it ba. hmm..
was just watching Orthros no Inu.. if you have the power to correct what the police cannot, will you do it, and live with the guilt, in exchange for the innocent girl's happiness?
guess only isaac and simjoo know abt this kid yea.. the kid who can curse, not with his hand like the serial though.. and he can't kill too, but focusing a curse at the right time can be quite dangerous too yea? combined with his martial arts, really isn't tt hard.. but wdv u do, only u know u did it, but u keep doing it time and again cos u think what you're doing is right.. but what if that street thug grows up to learn from his mistakes? and what if that little boy you saved grows up to be a drug peddler? then would you still have done what you did?
k, think less. live more..

damn tired! omg la.. i feel lk a straits times reporter now.. went to interview 3 ppl at 3 different places, take trascripts, film down stuffs.. heng i dunno anth abt e video, else i gotta do tt too.. LOL.. but fun la.. really feel lk a professional reporter sia.. interview with the damn pro mike.. hahax.. hey simjoo, i support ur future occupation as a reporter man.. HAHA.. but it's not going to be easy yea!
going for shangrila dialogue, can't say who else from other countries will be there cos it might be confidential(yea, in army, everything is confidential..LOL..) hmm.. but singapore side, who will be there, we all know la.. HAHA.. yea, up close with MM Lee and President Nathan! cool man.. once in a lifetime sia.. sadly, we can't take any pics WITH them.. only OF them.. HEH..

HAHAHA... but nola, i'm not going to spoil singapore's image.. respect ba.. and responsibility yea.. :) hahax.. wanna take pic, maybe if i ever get a chance next time yea.. in private..

guess wad, i got accepted into NUS business!!! hahax.. damn happy.. thank you everyone who believed in me, and encouraged me on.. esp jiayu, priscilla, aiting, david, kokting, ben, mark.. and all others who encouraged me in one way or another.. hahax.. kk, i'm not making a speech here ba..
i kinda know sth from this episode, tt my mum will just talk and talk, and pressurise.. and nth gets done.. if i wanna do sth, i gotta do it from within, and do it before she says anth, so i wun feel tt she's ordering me abt, and i'll will do it.. yea, i hate ppl ordering me abt, so i just don't do wdv they tell me to. hmph.
but now, i'm really quite satisfied with myself yea.. i'm gonna learn as much as possible now, before i even enter nus.. to be the 3-in-1 businessman of the 21st century.. the maven, the connector, and the salesman.. tt's my target yea.. so in NUS, it's either we form the best team, and share all we know with all in the team and strive together, or i'll just solo it myself.. good teachers or not, i don't care.. 2 yrs of preparation ahead of others is a sacrifice, but it's a worthy one, to win the loreal challenge, marketing.. :) the best marketer.. hahax..
yea, quite pleased with myself ba.. straight bs also can get into business, must have done quite well for e interview ba.. so to those out there who think you can't do it cos everyone around u is scoring As cos they're so damn smart, don't give up yea. just try your best, and who knows, maybe you'll get a chance at your dreams too yea! :)
yea, i did make a promise, if i ever become a successful businessman, i'm going to set up a foundation for poor kids, who don't have to be good at their studies, but have a burning passion for helping others and have proven their worth. and want to do something for society, not just for themselves.. yea, not through the numbers of CIP hours they get, but the number of testimonials they get from their VWO mentors. cool award rite? hahax.. but tt's IF la.. lol.. if i ever have e chance to, i first gotta start increasing my earning power.. :)
k, jiale, you're right, i should stand up to my mum. cos wdv she does is just pissing the fuck out of me. i guess without her around things might be better ba.. i got here tdy, despite her cursing tt i wouldn't, and making things difficult for me during my As cos i lost control of myself and hit her.
point to note, next time, find a submissive and loving wife. not sb who says no all e time, and doesn't know how to give in a little at times.
going for dinner soon.. gotta put up with my mum only on e weekends ba.. luckily.. LOL.. anw, sometime this wk, i'm going down to NUS or SMU to get a marketing book and start studying it.. hahax.. this is called studying sth you're finally interested in yea! after designing the advert for Noel, i think marketing is my thing ba.. least i can tell ppl tt i first designed my very 1st advert when i was 18.. :D
listening to superman can't fly by jay chou.. 不要问我哭过了没，因为超人不能流眼泪。seems lk he broke up with jolin tsai cos of pressure by his company ba.. life gives ppl a lot of expectations tt they have to fulfil. but it's kinda had to be that superman that ppl want you to be.. it's hard.. well, guess tt's y ppl lk me have a few hidden lives, away from public view, to still be ourselves, and not be judged by others.. sometimes, being who you are, even for a few moments, is a privilege.
next sat prolly going for dinner with pris ba.. hahax.. b4 i go overseas to australia.. 1 last dinner ba.. dun miss me too much.. :) hmm.. hope yunxi gets into NUS biz too ba.. :) den at least i've got 2 possible dates there hor? wun be so lonely..

HAHA.. lk i always told my juniors, dunno how to read notes nvm, just feel e music, and know what position produces wad sound.. then combine the sounds to form a piece of art.. :) heh.. yea, it's a cheat method.. play by ear, play by feel.. knowing how to play by actually not knowing how to play.. HEH.. cheem hor? but not advisible if u got time to learn properly la.. i din have e luxury of time to slowly pick it up yea..

jiale, it's my honor to have such a godbro lk u.. when u said we'd be brothers till death and beyond, it really warmed my heart. thanks bro.. i know i can sometimes fall deeply in love with a girl, and end up hurting myself, but you'd always be there for me, even if i sometimes cared for the girl more than i did for you. thanks for staying by my side, and helping me through my life.
having a godsis instead of a friend kinda has its benefits.. hahax.. cos a godsis doesn't hurt you the way a friend that you happen to like after some time would..

cos i don't know if what i'm doing is going to lead me down the right road or to a life of disaster..
help me.. sometimes, just having someone by your side, and though not talking, it really helps a lot to calm your nerves down.
other than tt, the other choice is sleeping it away. it kinda works sometimes.

bloody fucking asshole. FUCK YOUR BLOODY FUCKING FUCK. FUCK YOU. FUCK YOU. LIVING WITH A FUCKING FUCKTARD.
if you're not used to vulgar language. close this window. thanks.
k, i use this to prevent myself from venting my anger at it's original source. cos the original source happens to be my mum. all my fucking life i've not have any one irritate me, i've never had to get angry at anyone, if you just don't put my mum into the picture. fucking fucker just thinks abt shares, cash, the whole fucking day. using comp is wasting electricity. and wasting fucking money. go fuck yourself. you lose money in shares, and dad say nvm, it's just a failed investment. but why the fuck do you want to continue playing shares. it's not your fucking money. we could've got a better life without your fucking shares.
guess i'm just damn pissed. i want parents who are nice. lk jiayu's parents.. or jiale's parents.. life sucks when you live it in constrains.. when you're just not whoever they want you to be. some parents accept their children for who they are. they believe in their children.. other parents don't trust their children. cos to them, their children are just merely trophies they use for bragging rights.
i'm tired.. going to gombak tmr again. work is sian cos the ppl there aren't fun too. fuck la.
