I've been emo-ing for so long, its only last week that I felt so much better. It took alittle long to realise this- if u cant change the environment & people around u, u have to accept & live with it.
Having more responsibilities at work means less leave days, more OT & more shit. Since I've promised my boss to take up this challenge, I can only try my best to do a good job now..
Many other issues are not within my control as well. I just have to take things in my stride & accept things with an open mind.
I believe I have higher EQ now.

Friends & life
We're all grown up, we have our own things to be busy with- school, work, girlfriend/boyfriend, other commitments, etc. We used to just hang around as and when we like. Just a phone call & we'll be out for supper, drinks or just to chill.
Memories are good enough, cos things & people do change.
Thats life.

I want more people to hate me.
Written by Adrian Tan, author of The Teenage Textbook (1988), was the guest-of-honour at a recent NTU convocation ceremony. This was his speech to the graduating class of 2008.
An extraction of his speech - My favourite part
I now say this to you: be hated.
It's not as easy as it sounds. Do you know anyone who hates you? Yet every great figure who has contributed to the human race has been hated, not just by one person, but often by a great many. That hatred is so strong it has caused those great figures to be shunned, abused, murdered and in one famous instance, nailed to a cross.
One does not have to be evil to be hated. In fact, it’s often the case that one is hated precisely because one is trying to do right by one’s own convictions. It is far too easy to be liked, one merely has to be accommodating and hold no strong convictions. Then one will gravitate towards the centre and settle into the average. That cannot be your role. There are a great many bad people in the world, and if you are not offending them, you must be bad yourself. Popularity is a sure sign that you are doing something wrong.
I think this is really cool - Being yourself is always difficult. If u can be, and people like u for who u are, isnt it great?
Even if they dun, u're just being yourself. Wats the big deal?
That said, saying is easy. Doing is difficult.

There are many selfish people around.. I dun blame them, who doesnt want the best for themselves? But there are many levels of selfishness, some people are so mega selfish, the things they do affect many others. We cant stop such people from being around us (esp when it comes to work), but I'm sure we can do things to counter their selfish acts.
Instead of grumbling about how inconsiderate my colleague is, I'm gonna learn to work fast. I'm not going to be affected by him/them anymore. I know I can!

Before last week, I haven taken leave/break for a long time.. Prob since the start of 2010. Other than the time I was in China, anyway it didnt felt like a break cos the trip was so much more tiring than work.
After last week's short break, I realised not having a break, in a way, is good. U just keep working, and time passes really fast and the pay comes in month by month. Its after the break that u'll realise going back to work sucks. Its tiring, I dun have time to do things I want, I dun have enough rest, I dun have time to meet up with frens & I cant go out for supper when I crave for prata!! Especially so when I just started on a new drama! Forgotten when was the last time I watched one, prob months ago. And now I'm so addicted to it, I think of taking mc every morning, every now & then during work I just wish I can go home.
I just feel restless when I'm at work.. How to get back the motivation?

Daddy to Baby
I guess I can hold you
Sometime before you've grown
Let me tie your shoes
For soon you'll tie your own
You're learning the don'ts and do's
You're young and have the time
I know the day will come
When you do all these things alone
I want you to grow strong
Than your daddy could ever be
All the grand age of 2 you can do no wrong
And when you find success
There will be no soul prouder than me
So will you let me carry you?
One day you'll walk alone
I cannot bear to miss one day
From now till you've grown
Sometime before you've grown
Let me tie your shoes
For soon you'll tie your own
You're learning the don'ts and do's
You're young and have the time
I know the day will come
When you do all these things alone
I want you to grow strong
Than your daddy could ever be
All the grand age of 2 you can do no wrong
And when you find success
There will be no soul prouder than me
So will you let me carry you?
One day you'll walk alone
I cannot bear to miss one day
From now till you've grown

Today is just another normal day for me. Probably the best thing so far is not having to go to work. I dunno wats wrong but I've been in a really bad mood the past week or so. Every single thing that can irritate me will irritate me. This has never happened before, & I dun think there's any way I can control my mood.
Just hoping to get pass this stage soon :)

Opportunity
Have u had the experience of wanting to do something, but u keep thinking u had all the time in the world to do it & u keep procrastinating... Then one fine day everything that could stop u from doing it happens all at the same time. No matter how hard u think & try, there's no way out.
Even when u've convinced yourself that u shldnt waste time regretting, it does get back at u every now & then.
I was seldom able to see an opportunity until it had ceased to be one. ~Mark Twain
